2 Amakhosi 25
1 Ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye wokubusa kukaZedekhiya, ngosuku lwetshumi lwenyanga yetshumi, uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni waya eJerusalema lebutho lakhe lonke, wayivimbezela; wayakhela imiduli yokuvimbezela inxa zonke.
Pea ʻi hono hiva taʻu ʻo ʻene pule, ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe māhina, pea ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻaia mo ʻene tau kotoa pē, ke tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema, pea naʻa nau fakatoka ʻae tau ki ai; pea naʻa nau langa ʻae ngaahi kolo ki ai ʻo fakatakamilo.
2 Idolobho lavinjezelwa kwaze kwaba ngumnyaka wetshumi lanye kaZedekhiya inkosi.
Pea naʻe kāpui ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae tau ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha ʻoe tuʻi ko Setikia.
3 Ngosuku lwesificamunwemunye lwenyanga yesine indlala yayisinzima edolobheni, abantu bengaselakudla.
Pea ʻi hono hiva ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono fā ʻoe māhina, naʻe lahi ʻae honge ʻi he kolo, pea naʻe ʻikai ha meʻakai ki he kakai ʻoe fonua.
4 Umduli wedolobho wafohlwa, ibutho lonke labaleka. Basuka edolobheni bephuma ngesango eliphakathi kwemiduli emibili, phansi kwesivande senkosi, lanxa nje amaBhabhiloni ayeligombolozele idolobho. Babaleka beqonde e-Arabha.
Pea naʻe kapa ʻae kolo, pea naʻe hola ʻae kau tangata [tau ]kotoa pē ʻi he poʻuli ʻi he hala ʻoe matapā ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ongo ʻā maka, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he ngoue ʻae tuʻi; (ka ko eni naʻe ʻāʻi ʻae kolo ʻe he kakai Kalitia: ) pea naʻe ʻalu [ʻae tuʻi ]ʻi he hala ki he toafa.
5 Kodwa ibutho lamaKhaladiya laxotshana lenkosi layamfica emagcekeni aseJerikho. Wonke amabutho akhe ehlukana laye njalo ahlakazeka,
Pea naʻe tuli ʻae tuʻi ʻe he tau ʻae kakai Kalitia, ʻonau maʻu atu ʻi he toafa ʻo Sioatani, ka kuo movetevete ʻene tau kotoa pē meiate ia.
6 yena wathunjwa. Wasiwa enkosini yaseBhabhiloni eRibhila, lapho afika wagwetshelwa khona.
Ko ia naʻa nau puke ʻae tuʻi, mo ʻohake ia ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi Lipila; pea naʻa nau fakamaauʻi ia.
7 Babulala amadodana kaZedekhiya ekhangele. Basebemkhupha amehlo, bambopha ngamaketane ethusi bamusa eBhabhiloni.
Pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Setikia ʻi hono ʻao, pea naʻe kapeʻi ʻae mata ʻo Setikia, pea haʻi ia ʻaki ʻae haʻi palasa, pea naʻe ʻave ia ki Papilone.
8 Ngosuku lwesikhombisa ngenyanga yesihlanu, ngomnyaka wetshumi lasificamunwemunye kaNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, uNebhuzaradani umlawuli wabalindi besikhosini, owayesebenzela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, wafika eJerusalema.
Pea ʻi hono nima ʻoe māhina, ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina, ʻaia ko hono hongofulu ma hiva taʻu ʻoe tuʻi ko Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, naʻe haʻu ai ki Selūsalema ʻa Nepusaletani, ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone.
9 Wathungela ithempeli likaThixo ngomlilo, lesigodlo senkosi lezindlu zonke zaseJerusalema. Zonke izindlu eziqakathekileyo wazitshisa.
Pea naʻe tutu ʻe ia ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, mo e fale ʻoe tuʻi, mo e ngaahi fale kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, mo e fale ʻoe tangataʻeiki kotoa pē naʻa ne tutu ia ʻaki ʻae afi.
10 Wonke amabutho aseBhabhiloni, ekhokhelwa ngumlawuli wamabutho okulinda umndlunkulu, adiliza imiduli ehonqolozele iJerusalema.
Pea ko e tau kotoa pē ʻoe kakai Kalitia, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ʻeiki pule ʻoe leʻo, naʻa nau holoki hifo ʻae ngaahi ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, ʻo takatakai.
11 UNebhuzaradani umlawuli wabalindi wathatha bonke abantu ababesele edolobheni wabasa ekuthunjweni, ndawonye labo bonke abantu lalabo abasebeye enkosini yaseBhabhiloni.
Pea ko hono toe ʻoe kakai naʻe tuku ʻi he kolo, pea mo e kau hola naʻe hoko ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, mo hono toenga ʻoe kakai tokolahi, naʻe fetuku ʻakinautolu ʻe Nepusaletani ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo ʻo ne ʻave.
12 Kodwa umlawuli wamabutho watshiya inengi labantu ababengabayanga bokucina elizweni ukuba basebenze ezivinini lasemasimini.
Ka naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo ʻae kakai masiva ʻoe fonua ke nau tauhi ngoue vaine, mo tō ngoue.
13 AbeBhabhiloni baphahlaza izinsika zethusi lezinti zezibane loLwandle lwethusi, okwakusethempelini likaThixo. Bathwalela ithusi lelo eBhabhiloni.
Pea ko e ngaahi pou palasa naʻe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, mo e ngaahi tuʻunga, mo e ʻaiʻanga vai palasa ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, naʻe tā ʻo lailaiki ʻe he kakai Kalitia, ʻonau fetuku ʻae palasa ki Papilone.
14 Bathatha njalo imbiza, lamafotsholo, lezindlawu, lezinditshi lazozonke izitsha zethusi ezazisetshenziswa enkonzweni yasethempelini.
Pea ko e ngaahi kulo, mo e ngaahi huo, mo e ngaahi helekosi maama, mo e ngaahi sēpuni, mo e ngaahi ipu palasa ʻaia naʻa nau fai ʻaki ʻae ngāue, naʻa nau fetuku ʻo ʻave.
15 Umlawuli wabalindi besigodlo wathatha indengezi lemiganu yokuchela, konke okwakwenziwe ngegolide elicengekileyo loba isiliva.
Mo e ngaahi ipu ʻaiʻanga afi, mo e ngaahi ipu luoluo, mo e ngaahi meʻa koula, ʻi he koula, mo e siliva ʻi he siliva, naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo.
16 Ithusi elalivela ensikeni ezimbili, loLwandle kanye lelezidindi ezisusekayo, konke okwakwenzelwe ithempeli likaThixo nguSolomoni, kwakulesisindo esasingelinganiswe.
Ko e pou ʻe ua, mo e ʻaiʻanga vai ʻe taha, mo e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ki he fale ʻo Sihova: ko e palasa ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ni naʻe ʻikai faʻa lau hono mamafa.
17 Ubude bensika ngayinye babuzingalo ezilitshumi lasificaminwembili. Isiduku sethusi phezu kwenye insika sasizingalo ezintathu ubude baso njalo siceciswe ngomeluko lamaphomegranathi ethusi nxazonke. Eyinye insika kanye lomeluko wayo layo yayinjalo.
Ko hono lōloa ʻoe pou ʻe taha ko e hanga ʻe tolungofulu ma ono; pea ko e ʻuluʻi pou ko e palasa ia: pea ko e ʻuluʻi pou ko e hanga ia ʻe ono; pea naʻe palasa kotoa pē ʻae ngāue fihifihi mo e ngaahi fuaʻi ʻakau naʻe takatakai ʻi he ʻuluʻi pou: pea naʻe tatau mo ia ʻae ngāue fihifihi ʻi hono ua ʻoe pou.
18 Umlawuli wabalindi wathumba uSeraya induna yabaphristi, loZefaniya umsekeli wakhe kanye labalindi bomnyango abathathu.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe he ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo ʻa Selaia ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, mo Sefanaia ko hono ua ʻoe taulaʻeiki, mo e kau leʻo matapā ʻe toko tolu.
19 Kulabo ababelokhu besedolobheni, wathatha isikhulu esasiphethe amadoda okulwa labacebisi besikhosini abahlanu. Wathatha lonobhala owayeyinduna eyayiphethe ukubuthwa kwabantu bengeniswa emabuthweni kanye lamadoda angamatshumi ayisithupha ayelawo atholakala phakathi komuzi.
Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe ia mei he kolo ʻae matāpule ʻe taha naʻe pule ki he kau tangata tau, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko nima ʻokinautolu naʻe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi, ʻaia naʻe ʻilo ʻi he kolo, mo e tangata naʻe tuʻu ki muʻa ʻi he kau tangata tohi ʻoe tau, ʻaia naʻe tānaki ʻae kakai ʻoe fonua, mo e kau tangata ʻe toko onongofulu ʻoe kakai ʻoe fonua ʻaia naʻe ʻilo ʻi he kolo:
20 UNebhuzaradani umlawuli wabathatha bonke wabasa enkosini yaseBhabhiloni eRibhila.
Naʻe ʻave ʻakinautolu ni ʻe Nepusaletani, ko e ʻeiki pule ʻoe kau leʻo, pea ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki Lipila.
21 Khonale eRibhila, elizweni laseHamathi, inkosi yathi kabaqunywe. Ngakho abakoJuda baya ekuthunjweni kude lelizwe labo.
Pea naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi Lipila ʻi he fonua ʻo Hemati. Naʻe pehē ʻae fetuku ʻae kakai Siuta ke mamaʻo mei honau fonua.
22 UNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni wakhetha uGedaliya indodana ka-Ahikhami, oyindodana kaShafani, ukuba aphathe abantu ababesele koJuda.
Pea ko e kakai ʻoe fonua ʻaia naʻe toe ʻi he fonua ʻo Siuta, ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻe Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, naʻe fakanofo ke pule kiate kinautolu ʻa Ketalia ko e foha ʻo ʻAhikami, ko e foha ʻo Safani.
23 Kwathi zonke izikhulu zabalawuli bamabutho lamabutho sebezwile ukuthi inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yayisibeke uGedaliya ukuba nguSibalukhulu, beza kuGedaliya eMizipha izikhulu kungu-Ishumayeli indodana kaNethaniya, uJohanani indodana kaKhareya, uSeraya indodana kaThanihumethi umNethofa, uJazaniya indodana kaMahakhathi, labantu babo.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he ngaahi kongakau, ʻakinautolu mo ʻenau kakai, ʻo pehē kuo fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻa Ketalia ke pule ia, naʻe haʻu ai kia Ketalia ʻi Misipa, ʻio, ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Netania, mo Sohanani ko e foha ʻo Kalia, mo Selaia ko e foha ʻo Tanumeti ko e tangata Nitofa, mo Seasania ko e foha ʻoe tangata ʻo Meaka, ʻakinautolu mo ʻenau kakai.
24 UGedaliya wafunga isifungo ebathembisa labantu babo wathi: “Lingesabi izikhulu zaseBhabhiloni. Hlalani elizweni lisebenzele inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, konke kuzalilungela.”
Pea naʻe fuakava ʻa Ketalia kiate kinautolu, pea mo ʻenau kakai, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOua naʻa mou manavahē ke hoko ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ki he kakai Kalitia: nofo ʻi he fonua, pea tauhi ʻae tuʻi ʻo Papilone; pea te mou lelei ai.”
25 Kodwa ngenyanga yesikhombisa u-Ishumayeli indodana kaNethaniya, indodana ka-Elishama, owayezalwa esikhosini, weza lamadoda alitshumi bafika babulala uGedaliya lamadoda akoJuda kanye laweBhabhiloni ayekade elaye eMizipha.
Ka naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, naʻe haʻu ai ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ko e foha ʻo Netania, ko e foha ʻo ʻIlisama ʻi he hako ʻoe tuʻi, ko ia mo e kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu, ʻo ne taaʻi ʻa Ketalia, pea pekia ai ia, mo e kau Siu mo e kau Kalitia naʻe ʻiate ia ʻi Misipa.
26 Ngenxa yalokhu, abantu bonke kusukela kubantukazana kusiya kwabaphakemeyo, kanye lezikhulu zamabutho, babalekela eGibhithe ngokwesaba abeBhabhiloni.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻae siʻi mo e lahi, mo e ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi kautau, pea naʻa nau haʻu ki ʻIsipite; he naʻa nau manavahē ki he kakai Kalitia.
27 Ngomnyaka wamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa wokuthunjwa kukaJehoyakhini inkosi yakoJuda, ngomnyaka u-Evili-Merodakhi aba yinkosi eBhabhiloni, wakhulula uJehoyakhini entolongweni ngosuku lwamatshumi amabili lesikhombisa lwenyanga yetshumi lambili.
Pea ʻi hono tolungofulu ma fitu ʻoe taʻu ʻoe nofo pōpula ʻa Sihoiakini ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻi hono hongofulu ma ua ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻe uofulu ma fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he taʻu naʻe kamata ʻene pule ʻa Ivili-Melotaki ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, naʻa ne hiki hake ʻae ʻulu ʻo Sihoiakini ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta mei he fale fakapōpula:
28 Wakhuluma laye ngomusa, wamnika isihlalo esihloniphekayo esasingaphezu kwezamanye amakhosi ayelaye eBhabhiloni.
Pea naʻa ne lea ʻofa kiate ia, pea naʻa ne hiki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi ke māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi naʻe nofo mo ia ʻi Papilone;
29 Ngakho uJehoyakhini wakhupha izigqoko zakhe zasentolongweni, wadla lenkosi izikhathi zonke okwempilo yakhe yonke.
Pea naʻe fetongi hono ngaahi kofu fakafalepōpula: pea naʻe kai mā ia ʻi hono ʻao ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui.
30 Nsuku zonke inkosi yayinika uJehoyakhini isabelo esimisiweyo malanga wonke, empilweni yakhe yonke.
Pea ko ʻene meʻakai naʻe tufa maʻuaipē mei he tuʻi, ko e tufakanga ki he ʻaho taki taha, ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui.
