2 Ahemfo 3
1 Ahab babarima Yoram na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Israel ɛberɛ a na Yudahene Yehosafat adi adeɛ mfeɛ dunwɔtwe wɔ Yuda no. Ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Samaria mfeɛ dumienu.
Yoramu mwana wa Ahabu anakhala mfumu ya Israeli ku Samariya mʼchaka cha 18 cha Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda ndipo analamulira zaka khumi ndi ziwiri.
2 Ɔyɛɛ Awurade ani so bɔne. Nanso, na nʼamumuyɛ no nte sɛ nʼagya ne ne maame deɛ no. Ɔsɛee Baal adum kronkron a nʼagya siiɛ no.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova koma sizinafanane ndi zimene anachita abambo ndi amayi ake. Iye anachotsa fano la mwala la Baala limene abambo ake anapanga.
3 Nanso ɔtoaa ahonisom so, sɛdeɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israelfoɔ anim, ma wɔyɛɛ no.
Komabe anawumirira kuchita machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, amene anachimwitsa nawo Israeli ndipo sanafune kuwaleka.
4 Na Moabhene Mesa ne ne nkurɔfoɔ yɛn nnwan. Na wɔtua apeatoɔ a ɛyɛ nnwan mma ɔpeha ne nnwennini ɔpeha ho nwi ma Israelhene afe biara.
Tsono Mesa, mfumu ya ku Mowabu ankaweta nkhosa, ndipo iye ankayenera kumapereka kwa mfumu ya ku Israeli chaka ndi chaka ana ankhosa onenepa okwanira 100,000 pamodzi ndi ubweya wankhosa 100,000 zazimuna.
5 Nanso, Ahab wuo akyi no, Moabhene sɔre tiaa Israelhene.
Koma atamwalira Ahabu, mfumu ya ku Mowabu inawukira mfumu ya ku Israeli.
6 Enti, ɔhene Yoram firii Samaria boaboaa Israel akodɔm ano.
Choncho nthawi imeneyi mfumu Yoramu inatuluka mu Samariya ndi kukasonkhanitsa Aisraeli onse.
7 Ɛkwan so no, ɔtoo nkra yi kɔmaa Yudahene Yehosafat sɛ, “Moabhene asɔre atia me. Wobɛboa me na me ne no ako anaa?” Na Yehosafat buaa sɛ, “Adɛn enti na meremmoa wo. Wo ne me yɛ anuanom, na mʼakodɔm yɛ wo dea na wotumi di wɔn anim. Mpo mʼapɔnkɔ da wo da.”
Yoramu anatumizanso uthenga uwu kwa Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda: “Mfumu ya ku Mowabu yandiwukira. Kodi ungapite nane kukamenyana ndi Mowabu?” Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndidzapita nawe. Iwe ndi ine ndife anthu amodzi, anthu anga ali ngati anthu ako, akavalo anga ali ngati akavalo ako.”
8 Na Yehosafat bisaa sɛ, “Ɛkwan bɛn na yɛbɛfa so akɔ?” Yoram buaa sɛ, “Yɛbɛtoa wɔn afiri Edom ɛserɛ so.”
Yehosafati anafunsa kuti, “Kodi tidzera njira iti popita ku nkhondoko?” Yoramu anayankha kuti, “Tidzera ku Chipululu cha Edomu.”
9 Edomhene ne nʼakodɔm kɔkaa wɔn ho, na asraadɔm mmiɛnsa no de nnanson twaa ntwahokwan a ɛfa ɛserɛ so no. Nanso, na nsuo nni hɔ ma mmarima no anaa wɔn mmoa.
Choncho mfumu ya ku Israeli inanyamuka pamodzi ndi mfumu ya ku Yuda ndi ya ku Edomu. Ndipo atayenda mozungulira mʼchipululu kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri, asilikali analibe madzi woti amwe kapena kumwetsa nyama zawo zosenza katundu.
10 Israelhene teaam bisaa sɛ, “Yɛnyɛ yɛn ho ɛdeɛn? Awurade de yɛn baasa aba ha sɛ Moabhene nni yɛn so.”
Mfumu inafuwula kuti, “Nʼchiyani chomwe chikutichitikira! Kodi Yehova wasonkhanitsa mafumu atatu pamodzi kuti atipereke mʼmanja mwa Amowabu?”
11 Nanso, Yudahene Yehosafat bisaa sɛ, “Enti Awurade odiyifoɔ biara nka yɛn ho ha? Sɛ wɔn mu bi wɔ ha a, yɛbɛtumi abisa Awurade deɛ yɛnyɛ.” Ɔhene Yoram mpanimfoɔ no mu baako kaa sɛ, “Safat babarima Elisa wɔ ha. Na ɔyɛ Elia ɔboafoɔ.”
Koma mfumu Yehosafati inafunsa kuti, “Kodi kuno kulibe mneneri wa Yehova woti tingakafunse kwa Yehova kudzera mwa iyeyo?” Mtsogoleri wa ankhondo wa mfumu ya ku Israeli anayankha kuti, “Alipo, Elisa mwana wa Safati. Iye anali mtumiki wa Eliya.”
12 Enti, Yehosafat kaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ, Awurade bɛtumi akasa afa ne so.” Na Israelhene, Yudahene ne Edomhene kɔɔ Elisa nkyɛn abisa.
Yehosafati anati, “Yehova amayankhula kudzera mwa iye.” Choncho mfumu ya ku Israeli pamodzi ndi Yehosafati ndiponso mfumu ya ku Edomu anapita kwa Elisa.
13 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Israelhene sɛ, “Wo ho nhia me. Kɔ wʼagya ne wo maame adiyifoɔ abosonsomfoɔ no nkyɛn.” Nanso, ɔhene Yoram kaa sɛ, “Dabi! Na ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔfrɛɛ yɛn ahemfo baasa yi baa ha, sɛ Moabhene nsɛe yɛn!”
Elisa ananena kwa mfumu ya ku Israeli kuti, “Pali ubale wanji pakati pa inu ndi ine? Pitani kwa aneneri a abambo ndi amayi anu.” Mfumu ya ku Israeli inayankha kuti, “Ayi, pakuti ndi Yehova amene anatisonkhanitsa ife mafumu atatu pamodzi kuti atipereke mʼmanja mwa Amowabu.”
14 Na Elisa buaa sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade Otumfoɔ a mesom no te ase yi, sɛ ɛnyɛ Yudahene Yehosafat a mebu no a, anka merenha me ho wɔ wo ho.
Elisa anati, “Pali Yehova Wamphamvuzonse amene ndimamutumikira, pakanapanda kuti ndimamuchitira ulemu Yehosafati mfumu ya ku Yuda, sindikanakulabadirani kapena kukuyangʼanani nʼkomwe.
15 Afei, ma obi a ɔbɛtumi abɔ sankuo mmra.” Ɛberɛ a wɔrebɔ sankuo no, Awurade tumi baa Elisa so,
Koma tsopano ndiyitanireni munthu wodziwa kuyimba bwino zeze.” Munthuyo akuyimba zeze, mphamvu ya Yehova inafika pa Elisa,
16 ma ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Saa bɔnhwa a emu nsuo awe yi, wɔde nsuo bɛhyɛ no ma.
ndipo anati, “Yehova akuti, ‘Kumbani ngalande mʼchigwa chonse.’
17 Worenhunu mframa anaa osuo sɛdeɛ Awurade ka no, nanso saa bɔnhwa yi, wɔbɛhyɛ no nsuo ma. Mobɛnya bi ama mo ho, mo anantwie ne mo mmoa a aka no.
Pakuti Yehova akunena kuti, ‘Simudzaona mphepo kapena mvula, komabe chigwa ichi chopanda madzi chidzadzaza ndi madzi, ndipo inu mudzamwa pamodzi ndi ngʼombe zanu ndiponso nyama zanu zonse.’
18 Na yei yɛ ade kumaa bi ma Awurade. Ɔbɛma moadi Moab akodɔm so nkonim.
Izi ndi zosavuta pamaso pa Yehova. Ndipo adzaperekanso Amowabu mʼmanja mwanu.
19 Mobɛdi wɔn nkuropɔn papa so nkonim, mpo, nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no. Mobɛtwitwa wɔn nnua nyinaa agu. Mobɛsisi wɔn nsuo aniwa, na mode aboɔ asɛe wɔn nsase pa.”
Mudzagonjetsa mizinda yawo yonse yotetezedwa ndiponso mizinda yawo ikuluikulu. Mudzagwetsa mtengo wabwino uliwonse, mudzatseka akasupe onse amadzi, ndiponso mudzawononga minda yawo yonse yachonde poponyamo miyala.”
20 Na adeɛ kyeeɛ; ɛduruu ɛberɛ a wɔbɔ anɔpa afɔdeɛ no, nsuo puee prɛko pɛ. Na ɛtene firii Edom, na ankyɛre biara na nsuo abu baabiara.
Mmawa mwake, nthawi yopereka nsembe ili pafupi, anangoona madzi akutuluka kuchokera ku Edomu, ndipo malo onse anadzaza ndi madzi.
21 Ɛberɛ a Moabfoɔ tee sɛ akodɔm mmiɛnsa reba wɔn so no, wɔn nso boaboaa mmarima a wɔbɛtumi ako, mmɔfra ne mpanin ano, de wɔn sisii wɔn ahyeɛ so.
Tsono nʼkuti Amowabu onse atamva kuti mafumu abwera kudzachita nawo nkhondo. Kotero, anayitana munthu aliyense, wamkulu ndi wamngʼono amene ankatha kugwira chida chankhondo ndipo anakayima ku malire a dziko lawo.
22 Na adeɛ kyeeɛ a wɔsɔreeɛ no, na owia no abɔ wɔ nsuo no so, ama ani abere sɛ mogya.
Amowabu atadzuka mmamawa, dzuwa likuwala pa madziwo, anaona madziwo akuoneka wofiira ngati magazi patsogolo pawo.
23 Moabfoɔ no teaam sɛ, “Ɛyɛ mogya. Akodɔm mmiɛnsa no atwa wɔn ho ako, akunkum wɔn ho wɔn ho! Momma yɛnkɔfo asadeɛ no!”
Ndipo iwo anati, “Taonani magazi! Mafumu aja amenyana okhaokha ndipo aphana. Amowabu, tsopano ndi nthawi yofunkha!”
24 Ɛberɛ a wɔduruu Israelfoɔ nsraban mu no, Israel akodɔm gyee bum, kɔtoaa Moabfoɔ, ma wɔdwaneeɛ. Israel akodɔm no taa wɔn kɔduruu Moab asase so. Wɔgu Moabfoɔ no so nyinaa no, na wɔresɛe wɔn nneɛma.
Koma Amowabu atafika ku misasa ya Israeli, Aisraeli ananyamuka ndi kumenyana nawo mpaka anathawa. Ndipo Aisraeli analowa mʼdzikolo ndi kupha Amowabu.
25 Wɔsɛee wɔn nkuro akɛseɛ, de aboɔ kataa wɔn nsase pa so, sisii asutire nyinaa, twitwaa nnua pa nyinaa. Kir-Haraset nko ara na ɛkaeɛ, na ɛno mpo, wɔto hyɛɛ so.
Aisraeli anagumula mizinda yawo ndipo munthu aliyense anaponya mwala pa munda uliwonse wachonde mpaka utadzaza ndi miyala. Iwo anatseka akasupe onse amadzi ndiponso anadula mtengo wabwino uliwonse. Mzinda wa Kiri Hareseti wokha ndiye unatsala wotetezedwa koma anthu oponya miyala anawuzungulira nawuthiranso nkhondo.
26 Ɛberɛ a Moabhene hunuu sɛ ɔredi nkoguo no, ɔdii nʼakofoɔ ahanson anim, miaa wɔn ho, pɛɛ sɛ wɔpem fa atamfoɔ no nsraban a ɛbɛn Edomhene no mu, nanso wɔantumi.
Mfumu ya ku Mowabu itaona kuti nkhondo ikumulaka, inatenga anthu 700 a malupanga kuti athawe modutsa mfumu ya ku Edomu, koma inalephera.
27 Enti, ɔfaa ne babarima panin a anka ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene no, de no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ afasuo no ho. Yei enti, abufuo kɛseɛ baa Israel so, na wɔsane wɔn akyi kɔɔ wɔn ankasa asase so.
Choncho inatenga mwana wake wamwamuna woyamba kubadwa, amene akanalowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake, ndi kumupereka nsembe pa khoma la mzinda. Zimenezi zinachititsa kuti mkwiyo ndi ukali wa Amowabu ukule kwambiri pa Aisraeli ndipo Aisraeliwo anathawa nabwerera ku dziko la kwawo.
