1 Ahemfo 14
1 Saa ɛberɛ no, Yeroboam babarima Abia yaree dendeenden.
Ngalesosikhathi uAbhiya indodana kaJerobhowamu wagula.
2 Enti, Yeroboam ka kyerɛɛ ne yere sɛ, “Sesa wo ho, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, obiara renhunu wo sɛ wone ɔhemmaa no. Na kɔ odiyifoɔ Ahiya, ɔbarima a ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ mɛdi ɔhene no, nkyɛn wɔ Silo.
UJerobhowamu wasesithi kumkakhe: Akusuke uzifihle isimo ukuze bangakwazi ukuthi ungumkaJerobhowamu, uye eShilo; khangela, kukhona lapho uAhiya umprofethi owangitshela ukuthi ngizakuba yinkosi phezu kwalababantu.
3 Fa burodo mua edu, ɔfam ne ɛwoɔ akɔtoa kɔkyɛ no, na bisa no deɛ ɛbɛba abarimaa no so.”
Uthathe izinkwa ezilitshumi esandleni sakho lamaqebelengwana alukhuni lodiwo loluju, uye kuye, yena uzakutshela okuzakwenzeka kulumntwana.
4 Na Yeroboam yere no kɔɔ Ahiya fie wɔ Silo. Saa ɛberɛ no na wabɔ akɔkoraa a ɔnhunu adeɛ.
UmkaJerobhowamu wasesenza njalo, wasuka waya eShilo, wafika emzini kaAhiya. Kodwa uAhiya wayengelakubona ngoba amehlo akhe ayesenqundekile ngenxa yobudala bakhe.
5 Nanso, na Awurade aka akyerɛ Ahiya sɛ, “Yeroboam yere bɛba ha, na ɔbɛhyɛ da ayɛ ne ho sɛ obi foforɔ. Ɔbɛbisa wo ne babarima no ho asɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyare dendeenden. Sɛ ɛba saa a, fa mmuaeɛ a mede bɛma wo no ma no.”
INkosi yasisithi kuAhiya: Khangela, umkaJerobhowamu uyeza ukubuza ulutho kuwe ngendodana yakhe, ngoba iyagula. Uzamtshela ukuthi lokuthi. Ngoba kuzakuthi ekungeneni kwakhe, uzazitshaya omunye.
6 Na Ahiya tee ne nan ase wɔ ɛpono ano no, ɔfrɛɛ sɛ, “Yeroboam yere, bra mu! Adɛn enti na woahyɛ da ayɛ wo ho sɛ obi foforɔ?” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mewɔ asɛmmɔne ka kyerɛ wo.
Kwasekusithi uAhiya esizwa izisinde zenyawo zakhe lapho engena emnyango wathi: Ngena mkaJerobhowamu; uzitshayelani omunye? Ngoba ngithunywe kuwe ngento enzima.
7 Fa saa nkra yi a ɛfiri Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, nkyɛn kɔma wo kunu Yeroboam sɛ, ‘Mepagyaa wo firi mpapahwekwaa mu, de wo bɛsii me nkurɔfoɔ Israel so ɔhene.
Hamba uthi kuJerobhowamu: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ithi: Njengoba ngakuphakamisa uphakathi kwabantu, ngakwenza umbusi phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli,
8 Metuu ahemman no ase firii Dawid fie, de maa wo. Nanso, woammu wo bra, te sɛ me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔdii mʼahyɛdeɛ so a ɔde nʼakoma nyinaa dii mʼakyi, na daa ɔyɛɛ biribiara a mepɛ sɛ ɔyɛ no.
ngadabula umbuso ngawususa endlini kaDavida, ngawunika wena; kodwa kawubanga njengenceku yami uDavida, owagcina imilayo yami, lowangilandela ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke, ukwenza okuhle kuphela emehlweni ami;
9 Bɔne a woayɛ no dɔɔso kyɛn wɔn a wɔtenaa ase ansa na wɔrewo woɔ no. Woayɛ anyame afoforɔ ma ɛnam so ama me bo afu wo, wo sikakɔkɔɔ nantwie mma no enti. Na ɛsiane sɛ woadane wʼakyi akyerɛ me enti,
kodwa wenzile ububi okwedlula bonke ababekhona phambi kwakho, kodwa uhambe wazenzela abanye onkulunkulu lezithombe ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa, ukuze ungithukuthelise, wangilahla emva komhlana wakho.
10 mede amanehunu bɛba wo fie ahennie nnidisoɔ so, na makum wo mmammarima nyinaa, akoa ne deɛ ɔdi ne ho so nso. Mɛhye wʼahennie nnidisoɔ no ase, sɛdeɛ obi hye wura ma aseɛ tu koraa no.
Ngakho, khangela, ngizakwehlisela ububi endlini kaJerobhowamu, ngiqume asuke kuJerobhowamu ochamela emdulini, ovalelweyo lokhululekileyo koIsrayeli, ngihugule okulandelayo kwendlu kaJerobhowamu, njengomuntu ehugula umquba uze uphele.
11 Me, Awurade, meka ntam sɛ, wo fiefoɔ a wɔbɛwuwu wɔ kuro no mu no, nkraman na wɔbɛwe wɔn ɛnam, na wɔn a wɔbɛwuwu wiram no nso, apete na wɔbɛsosɔ wɔn ɛnam.’”
OkaJerobhowamu ofela phakathi komuzi zizamudla izinja, lofela egangeni zizamudla inyoni zamazulu; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
12 Na Ahiya ka kyerɛɛ Yeroboam yere sɛ, “Kɔ efie, na sɛ wowura kuro no mu ara pɛ a, abɔfra no bɛwu.
Ngakho wena suka, uye endlini yakho; ekungeneni kwenyawo zakho emzini umntwana uzakufa.
13 Na Israel nyinaa bɛsu no, na wɔasie no. Ɔno nko ne onipa a ɔfiri mo fie a wɔbɛsie no yie, na saa abɔfra no nko na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, hunu no sɛ ade pa wɔ Yeroboam fiefoɔ nyinaa mu.
Njalo uIsrayeli wonke uzamlilela amngcwabe; ngoba nguye kuphela koJerobhowamu ozakuza engcwabeni, ngoba kutholakala kuye into elungileyo ngaseNkosini uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli endlini kaJerobhowamu.
14 Na Awurade bɛpagya ɔhene adi Israel so. Ɔno na ɔbɛtɔre Yeroboam fiefoɔ ase. Saa asɛm no bɛsi ɛnnɛ yi ara, saa dɔnhwereɛ yi ara mu.
Futhi uJehova uzazivusela inkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli, ezaquma indlu kaJerobhowamu ngalolosuku. Kodwa kuyini? Lakhathesi.
15 Na Awurade bɛwoso Israel te sɛ sibire a ɛhinhim wɔ asuwa ani. Ɔbɛtutu Israelfoɔ ase afiri saa asase pa a ɔde maa wɔn agyanom no so. Na ɔbɛbɔ wɔn apete, atra Asubɔnten Eufrate, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnam som a wɔsom Asera afɔrebukyia no so ahyɛ Awurade abufuo.
Njalo iNkosi izamtshaya uIsrayeli njengomhlanga uzunguzeka emanzini, iquphule uIsrayeli elizweni leli elihle, eyalinika oyise, ibachithachithe ngaphetsheya komfula, ngenxa yokuthi bazenzela izixuku, bayithukuthelisa iNkosi.
16 Ɔbɛto Israel asaworam, ɛfiri sɛ, Yeroboam yɛɛ bɔne, nam so maa Israel nyinaa ne no yɛɛ bɔne.”
Njalo izanikela uIsrayeli ngenxa yezono zikaJerobhowamu, owonayo, wenza uIsrayeli one.
17 Na Yeroboam yere sane kɔɔ Tirsa. Na ɛberɛ a ɔwuraa ne fie no, abɔfra no wuiɛ.
UmkaJerobhowamu wasesuka wahamba, wafika eTiriza. Lapho efika embundwini wendlu, umfana wafa.
18 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ siee no no, wɔsuu no sɛdeɛ Awurade nam odiyifoɔ Ahiya so hyɛeɛ no.
Basebemngcwaba; loIsrayeli wonke wamlilela, njengokwelizwi leNkosi eyalikhuluma ngesandla senceku yayo uAhiya umprofethi.
19 Yeroboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, nʼakodie nyinaa ne ɛkwan a ɔfaa so buu ɔman no nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma Mu.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaJerobhowamu, ukuthi walwa njani, lokuthi wabusa njani, khangela, zibhaliwe egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoIsrayeli.
20 Yeroboam dii adeɛ wɔ Israel mfeɛ aduonu mmienu. Ɔwuiɛ no, ne babarima Nadab na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
Lensuku uJerobhowamu abusa ngazo zaziyiminyaka engamatshumi amabili lambili, walala laboyise, njalo uNadabi indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
21 Na Salomo babarima Rehoboam na na ɔdi ɔhene wɔ Yuda. Ɛberɛ a ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfeɛ aduanan baako, na ɔdii adeɛ mfeɛ dunson wɔ Yerusalem, kuro a na Awurade ayi wɔ Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa mu, sɛ ɔde rehyɛ ne din animuonyam. Na Rehoboam maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni.
URehobhowamu indodana kaSolomoni wabusa-ke koJuda. URehobhowamu wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amane lanye lapho esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka elitshumi lesikhombisa eJerusalema, umuzi iNkosi eyayiwukhethile kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, ukubeka khona ibizo layo. Lebizo likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi.
22 Ɛberɛ a na Rehoboam di adeɛ no, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda no yɛɛ bɔne Awurade anim, maa ne bo fuu wɔ wɔn bɔne no ho. Na saa bɔne no sene deɛ wɔn agyanom no yɛeɛ mpo.
UJuda wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi; bayivusa ubukhwele, ngezono zabo abazonayo, okwedlula konke oyise ababekwenzile, ngezono zabo abazonayo.
23 Wɔsisii abosomfie, gyinaa nnannua a wɔate ho ne Asera afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ biara so ne dutan frɔmfrɔm biara ase.
Ngoba labo bazakhela izindawo eziphakemeyo, lezinsika eziyizithombe, lezixuku, phezu kwalo lonke uqaqa oluphakemeyo, langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza.
24 Mpo, na abosomfie mmarima nnwamanfoɔ wɔ asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Nnipa no suasuaa akyiwadeɛ ahodoɔ a amanaman a wɔsom abosom no yɛeɛ enti a Awurade pamoo wɔn firii asase no so maa Israelfoɔ no.
Kwakukhona-ke elizweni lezinkotshana. Benza njengokwezinengiso zezizwe iNkosi eyayizixotshile elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
25 Rehoboam dii adeɛ ne mfeɛ enum so no, Misraimhene Sisak bɛto hyɛɛ Yerusalem so.
Kwasekusithi ngomnyaka wesihlanu wenkosi uRehobhowamu uShishaki inkosi yeGibhithe wenyuka wamelana leJerusalema.
26 Ɔbɔ wuraa Awurade Asɔredan no mu ne ahemfie hɔ baabiara, wiaa biribiara a sikakɔkɔɔ akyɛm a Salomo yɛeɛ no ka ho.
Wathatha amagugu endlu kaJehova lamagugu endlu yenkosi, yebo wakuthatha konke, wathatha zonke izihlangu zegolide uSolomoni ayezenzile.
27 Akyire yi, Rehoboam yɛɛ kɔbere akyɛm de sii anan, na ɔde hyɛɛ ahemfie awɛmfoɔ no nsa sɛ wɔnhwɛ so.
Inkosi uRehobhowamu yasisenza endaweni yazo izihlangu zethusi, yazinikela esandleni senduna yabalindi ababegcina umnyango wendlu yenkosi.
28 Ɛberɛ biara a ɔhene no kɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no, awɛmfoɔ no soa kɔ hɔ bi, na sɛ ɔwie na ɔreba a, wɔsane de bɛgu awɛmfoɔ ɛdan no mu.
Njalo kwakusithi lapho inkosi ingena endlini kaJehova abalindi babezithwala, bazibuyisele endlini yabalindi.
29 Na Rehoboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ no deɛ, wɔatwerɛ ne nyinaa wɔ Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
Ezinye-ke zezindaba zikaRehobhowamu, lakho konke akwenzayo, kakubhalwanga yini egwalweni lwemilando yamakhosi akoJuda?
30 Daa na ɔko da Rehoboam ne Yeroboam ntam.
Kwakukhona-ke impi phakathi kukaRehobhowamu loJerobhowamu zonke izinsuku.
31 Ɛberɛ a Rehoboam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagyanom koraberɛ wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni baa. Afei, ne babarima a ne din de Abiyam na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
URehobhowamu waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa kuboyise emzini kaDavida. Lebizo likanina lalinguNahama umAmonikazi. UAbhiyamu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
