2 Ahemfo 7
1 Elisa buaa sɛ, “Tie saa asɛm yi firi Awurade nkyɛn! Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Ɛbɛduru ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ, wɔbɛtɔn asikyiresiam a wɔayam no muhumuhu lita nsia agye dwetɛ gram dubaako wɔ Samaria edwa biara so. Na atokoɔ nso, wɔbɛtɔn lita edu agye dwetɛ gram dumienu pɛ.”
UElisha wasesithi: Zwanini ilizwi leNkosi; itsho njalo iNkosi: Ngalesisikhathi kusasa iseya lempuphu ecolekileyo lizathengiswa ngeshekeli, lamaseya amabili ebhali ngeshekeli, esangweni leSamariya.
2 Ɔpanin a ɔboa ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no sɛ, “Sɛ Awurade bue ɔsoro mfɛnsere mpo a, ɛremma saa da!” Na Elisa kaa sɛ, “Wobɛhunu sɛ ɛbɛba mu saa, nanso worentumi nni emu biara bi.”
Induna inkosi eyayeyeme esandleni sayo yasiphendula umuntu kaNkulunkulu, yathi: Khangela, uba iNkosi ibingenza amawindi emazulwini, kungenzeka linto yini? Wasesithi: Khangela, uzakubona ngamehlo akho, kodwa kawuyikudla okwakho.
3 Afei, mmarima akwatafoɔ baanan bi bɛtenatenaa kuro no apono ano. Wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ yɛtena ha twɛn ara wuwuo?
Njalo kwakulamadoda amane ayengamalephero ekungeneni kwesango, athi omunye komunye: Sihlaleleni lapha size sife?
4 Sɛ yɛtena ha a, ɛkɔm bɛde yɛn dodo; saa ara nso na sɛ yɛsane kɔ kuro no mu nso a, ɛkɔm bɛwe yɛn ara ne no. Enti ɛbɛyɛ sɛ yɛbɛkɔ, na yɛde yɛn ho bɛma Aramfoɔ akodɔm no. Na sɛ wɔma yɛtena ase a, na ne yie mu ne no. Na sɛ wɔkunkum yɛn nso a, na ɛno ara ne no.”
Uba sisithi: Sizangena emzini, lendlala isemzini, sizafela khona. Njalo uba sihlala lapha, sizakufa futhi. Ngakho-ke, wozani, siyewela enkambeni yamaSiriya; uba esiyekela siphile, sizaphila; uba-ke esibulala, sizakufa nje.
5 Enti, saa anwummerɛ no, wɔsiim kɔɔ Aramfoɔ nsraban no mu, nanso na obiara nni hɔ.
Asesukuma kusahwalala ukuya enkambeni yamaSiriya; esefike ekucineni kwenkamba yamaSiriya, khangela-ke, kwakungelamuntu khona.
6 Na Awurade ama akodɔm no nyinaa atɛ nteaseɛnam a ɛrekɔ mmirikaden no nan ase ne apɔnkɔ no ne akodɔm kɛseɛ a wɔrebɛn wɔn no nan ase. Wɔteateaam sɛ, “Israelhene afa Hetifoɔ ne Misraimfoɔ sɛ wɔmmɛto nhyɛ yɛn so.”
Ngoba iNkosi yenza ibutho lamaSiriya lizwe umsindo wezinqola, umsindo wamabhiza, umsindo webutho elikhulu; athi omunye komunye: Khangela, inkosi yakoIsrayeli isisiqhatshele amakhosi amaHethi lamakhosi amaGibhithe ukuzamelana lathi.
7 Enti, wɔbɔɔ huboa, na wɔdwanee anadwo no, gyaa wɔn ntomadan, apɔnkɔ, mfunumu ne wɔn biribiara, de peree wɔn nkwa.
Asesukuma abaleka kusahwalala, atshiya amathente awo lamabhiza awo labobabhemi bawo, inkamba njengoba injalo, abaleka ngenxa yempilo yawo.
8 Ɛberɛ a akwatafoɔ no duruu sraban no ano no, wɔn nyinaa wurawuraa ntomadan no mu mmaako mmaako didiiɛ, nom nsã, tasee dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne ntadeɛ de kɔsieeɛ.
Amalephero la esefike ekucineni kwenkamba, angena kwelinye ithente, adla anatha, athatha lapho isiliva legolide lezigqoko, ayakufihla; abuyela angena kwelinye ithente, athatha lapho, ayakufihla.
9 Akyire yi, wɔkeka kyerɛkyerɛɛ wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Deɛ yɛreyɛ yi nyɛ. Yei yɛ asɛm papa a yɛmmɔɔ obiara amaneɛ. Na sɛ yɛtwɛn kɔsi adekyeeɛ a, deɛ ɛbɛyɛ biara, asotwe bi bɛda yɛn so. Mommra ma yɛnsane nkɔbɔ nnipa a wɔwɔ ahemfie no amaneɛ.”
Asesithi omunye komunye: Kasenzi kuhle. Lolusuku lusuku lwemibiko emihle, kodwa sizithulele thina. Uba silinda kuze kube yikukhanya kwekuseni, isijeziso sizasifica. Khathesi-ke, wozani siyebikela indlu yenkosi.
10 Enti, wɔsane wɔn akyi, baa kuro no mu, bɛbɔɔ apono anohwɛfoɔ no asɛm a asi no ho amaneɛ sɛ wɔakɔ Aramfoɔ sraban mu, na na obiara nni hɔ. Na wɔasesa apɔnkɔ ne mfunumu no nwoma, na ntomadan no deɛ, na ne nyinaa wɔ hɔ pɛpɛɛpɛ, nanso na onipa baako koraa nni hɔ.
Asesiza, amemeza kumlindi wesango womuzi, abatshela esithi: Sifike enkambeni yamaSiriya, khangela-ke, bekungelamuntu khona kumbe ilizwi lomuntu, kodwa amabhiza ebotshelwe labobabhemi bebotshelwe, lamathente enjengoba enjalo.
11 Apono anohwɛfoɔ no teateaam, kaa asɛm no maa nnipa a wɔwɔ ahemfie hɔ no teeɛ.
Wasebiza abalindi bamasango, basebebikela indlu yenkosi phakathi.
12 Ɔdasuom, ɔhene no sɔre firii ne mpa so, ka kyerɛɛ ne mpanimfoɔ sɛ, “Menim asɛm a asi. Aramfoɔ nim sɛ ɛkɔm rekum yɛn enti, wɔatu afiri wɔn sraban mu, akɔtetɛ wiram baabi. Wɔrehwehwɛ sɛ yɛbɛfiri kuro no mu, na wɔakyekye yɛn anikann, na wɔafa kuro no.”
Inkosi yasivuka ebusuku, yathi encekwini zayo: Sengizalitshela ukuthi amaSiriya enzeni kithi. Ayazi ukuthi silambile, ngakho aphumile enkambeni ukuyacatsha egangeni esithi: Nxa bephuma emzini, sizababamba bephila, besesingena emzini.
13 Mpanimfoɔ no mu baako kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ sɛ yɛbɛsoma akwansrafoɔ, na wɔakɔhwehwɛ mu. Momma wɔmfa apɔnkɔ a wɔaka no mu enum. Sɛ asɛm bi to wɔn koraa a, ɛrenyɛ adehwereɛ kɛseɛ biara sɛ wɔbɛtena ha ne yɛn a yɛaka no bɛwuwu.”
Enye yenceku zayo yasiphendula yathi: Ake bathathe amahlanu emabhizeni aseleyo, aseleyo phakathi komuzi, (khangela, afanana lexuku lonke lakoIsrayeli elitshiywe kuwo, khangela, afanana lexuku lonke lakoIsrayeli eliqothuliweyo), kasithume, sibone.
14 Enti, wɔsiesiee nteaseɛnam mmienu ne apɔnkɔ, na ɔhene no somaa akwansrafoɔ kɔhwɛɛ asɛm a ato Aramfoɔ akodɔm no.
Basebethatha amabhiza amabili enqola; inkosi yasithuma emva kwebutho lamaSiriya isithi: Hambani, libone.
15 Wɔkɔeɛ ara kɔduruu Asubɔnten Yordan, dii ntadeɛ ne ahyehyɛdeɛ a Aramfoɔ ato agu no akyi, ɛberɛ a na wɔde anikrakra redwane no. Akwansrafoɔ no sane bɛbɔɔ ɔhene no amaneɛ.
Basebewalandela kwaze kwaba seJordani; khangela-ke, indlela yonke yayigcwele izembatho lempahla amaSiriya ayekulahlile ekuphangiseni kwawo. Izithunywa zasezibuyela, zayibikela inkosi.
16 Enti, Samariafoɔ bɔɔ twi, kɔfoo Aramfoɔ sraban no. Ɛno enti, na ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ wɔtɔn asikyiresiam a wɔayam no muhumuhu lita nsia saa da no de gye dwetɛ gram dubaako, atokoɔ lita edu nso, na wɔtɔn de gye dwetɛ gram dumienu, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ ho bɔ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
Abantu basebephuma bayiphanga inkamba yamaSiriya. Ngakho iseya lempuphu ecolekileyo laselithengiswa ngeshekeli, lamaseya amabili ebhali ngeshekeli, njengokwelizwi leNkosi.
17 Ɔhene no yii ne panin, ma ɔhwɛɛ ɛpono no mu ahyɛnfirie so, nanso nnipadɔm no twi faa ne so ma ɔwuiɛ. Enti, biribiara baa mu pɛpɛɛpɛ, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no hyɛɛ ho nkɔm ɛberɛ a ɔhene no baa ne fie no.
Inkosi yasibeka induna eyayeyeme esandleni sayo ukuba ngumlindi phezu kwesango. Abantu bayinyathela esangweni yaze yafa, njengokutsho komuntu kaNkulunkulu owakhuluma ekufikeni kwenkosi kuye.
18 Onyankopɔn onipa no ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ, “Ɛbɛduru ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ, wɔbɛtɔn asikyiresiam muhumuhu lita asia agye dwetɛ gram dubaako wɔ Samaria edwa biara so. Na atokoɔ nso, wɔbɛtɔn lita edu agye dwetɛ gram dumienu.”
Kwasekusithi njengokutsho komuntu kaNkulunkulu enkosini esithi: Amaseya amabili ebhali ngeshekeli, leseya lempuphu ecolekileyo ngeshekeli phose ngalesisikhathi kusasa azakuba sesangweni leSamariya.
19 Ɔhene no panin no buaa sɛ, “Sɛ Awurade bue ɔsoro mfɛnsere mpo a, ɛremma saa da!” Na Onyankopɔn onipa no kaa sɛ, “Wobɛhunu sɛ ɛbɛba mu saa, nanso worenni emu biara bi.”
Induna yasimphendula umuntu kaNkulunkulu yathi: Khangela-ke, uba iNkosi ibingenza amawindi emazulwini, kungenzeka linto yini? Kodwa wathi: Khangela, uzakubona ngamehlo akho, kodwa kawuyikudla okwakho.
20 Ɛno ara na ɛbaa mu, nnipa twi faa ne so, kumm no wɔ ɛpono no ano no.
Kwaba njalo-ke kuye, ngoba abantu bamnyathela esangweni waze wafa.
