2 Imilando 21
1 UJehoshafathi waselala laboyise, wangcwatshelwa kuboyise emzini kaDavida. UJoramu indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
HIAMOE iho la o Iehosapata me kona poe kupuna, a kanuia iho la me kona poe kupuna iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida; a nohoalii iho la o Iehorama kana keiki mahope ona.
2 Njalo wayelabafowabo, amadodana kaJehoshafathi, oAzariya, loJehiyeli, loZekhariya, loAzariya, loMikayeli, loShefathiya. Bonke laba babengamadodana kaJehoshafathi inkosi yakoIsrayeli.
O kona mau hoahanau, na keiki a Iehosapata, oia o Azaria, a me Iehiela, a me Zekaria, a me Azaria, a me Mikaela, a me Sepatia; o keia poe a pau, oia na keiki a Iehosapata ke alii o ka Iseraela.
3 Uyise wasebanika izipho ezinengi zesiliva lezegolide lezempahla eziligugu kanye lemizi ebiyelweyo koJuda; kodwa umbuso wawunika uJehoramu ngoba wayelizibulo.
A haawi aku la ko lakou makuakane na lakou i na makana he nui loa, i ke kala, a i ke gula, a i na mea nani hoi, a me na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa ma Iuda; aka, haawi oia i ke aupuni no Iehorama, no ka mea, oia ka hiapo.
4 UJehoramu esephakeme embusweni kayise waziqinisa, wabulala bonke abafowabo ngenkemba njalo lezinye zeziphathamandla zakoIsrayeli.
A ku iho la o Iehorama i ke aupuni o kona makuakane, imi iho la oia i mea e paa ai, a pepehi i kona poe hoahanau a pau loa me ka pahikaua, a i kekahi poe luna o ka Iseraela no hoi.
5 UJehoramu wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lambili esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka eyisificaminwembili eJerusalema.
He kanakolukumamalua makahiki o Iehorama i kona wa i noho alii ai, a noho alii iho ia ia i na makahiki ewalu ma Ierusalema.
6 Wasehamba ngendlela yamakhosi akoIsrayeli, njengokwenza kwendlu kaAhabi, ngoba indodakazi kaAhabi yayingumkakhe; wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi.
A hele ia ma ka aoao o na'lii o ka Iseraela, ma na mea a ko ka hale o Ahaba i hana'i; no ka mea, o ke kaikamahine a Ahaba oia kana wahine, a hana iho la oia ma ka hewa imua o Iehova.
7 Kodwa iNkosi kayithandanga ukuchitha indlu kaDavida ngenxa yesivumelwano eyayisenze loDavida, lanjengoba yayithe izanika yena lamadodana akhe isibane insuku zonke.
Aka, aole i makemake o Iehova e hoopau i ko ka hale o Davida no ka berita ana i hana'i me Davida, i kana olelo ana e haawi mai nona i kukui, a no kana poe mamo i na la a pau.
8 Ensukwini zakhe uEdoma wahlubuka wasuka phansi kwesandla sakoJuda, basebezibekela inkosi.
I kona mau la, kipi iho la ka Edoma mai ka lima aku o ka Iuda, a hoalii iho la i alii no lakou.
9 UJehoramu wasechapha lenduna zakhe lenqola zonke laye, wavuka ebusuku, wawatshaya amaEdoma ayezingelezele yena lenduna zenqola.
Alaila hele iwaho o Iehorama me kona poe luna, a me na kaa a pau me ia; a ku ae la ia iluna i ka po, a luku i ka Edoma, i ka poe i hoopuni mai ia ia a me na luna no na kaa.
10 UEdoma wahlubuka-ke wasuka phansi kwesandla sakoJuda kuze kube lamuhla. Khona iLibhina yahlubuka ngalesosikhathi yasuka phansi kwesandla sakhe, ngoba wayedelile iNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise.
Aka, noho kipi no ka Edoma mai ka lima aku o ka Iuda A hiki i keia la. Ia manawa no hoi, kipi iho la o Libena mai kona lima aku; no ka mea, ua haalele oia ia Iehova i ke Akua o kona poe kupuna.
11 Futhi yena wenza indawo eziphakemeyo entabeni zakoJuda, wenza abahlali beJerusalema baphinge, waduhisa uJuda.
A hana no hoi ia i na wahi kiekie ma na mauna o Iuda, a hoomoekolohe i ko Ierusalema, a kaohi i ka Iuda malaila.
12 Kwasekufika kuye incwadi ivela kuElija umprofethi isithi: Itsho njalo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaDavida uyihlo: Ngenxa yokuthi ungahambanga ezindleleni zikaJehoshafathi uyihlo lezindleleni zikaAsa inkosi yakoJuda,
A hiki mai io na la kekahi palapala na Elia mai na ke kaula, i mai la, Penei i olelo mai ai o Iehova ke Akua o Davida o kou makua, I kou hele ole ana ma na aoao o Iehosapata kou makuakane, a me na aoao o Asa, ke alii o ka Iuda,
13 kodwa uhambe ngendlela yamakhosi akoIsrayeli, wenza uJuda labahlali beJerusalema baphinge njengobuwule bendlu kaAhabi, futhi-ke ubulele abafowenu bendlu kayihlo ababengcono kulawe,
Aka, hele oe ma ka aoao o na'liio ka Iseraela, a hoomoekolohe i ka Iuda, a me ko Ierusalema, e like me ka moe kolohe o ko ka hale o Ahaba, a ua pepehi no hoi i kou poe hoahanau, i ko ka hale o kou makuakane, ka poe i oi aku ko lakou maikai i kou;
14 khangela, iNkosi izatshaya ngokutshaya okukhulu ebantwini bakho lebantwaneni bakho lakubomkakho, lakuyo yonke impahla yakho.
Aia hoi, e hahau o Iehova me ka hahau nui i kou poe kanaka, a me kau poe keiki, a me kau poe wahine, a me kau mau mea a pau loa.
15 Lawe uzakuba semikhuhlaneni emikhulu ngesifo samathumbu akho, amathumbu akho aze aphume ngenxa yesifo usuku ngosuku.
A e hiki mai maluna ou la eha nui loa, no ka mai ma kou opu, no kou mai e pahu aku no kou naau iwaho i kela la i keia la.
16 INkosi yasimvusela uJehoramu umoya wamaFilisti lamaArabhiya ayeseceleni kwamaEthiyophiya.
A hoala ae la o Iehova i ka manao o ko Pilisetia e ku e ia Iehorama, a me ko Arabia, ka poe e noho kokoke ana i Aitiopa.
17 Asesenyukela koJuda ayifohlela athumba yonke impahla eyatholakala endlini yenkosi kanye lamadodana ayo labafazi bayo; kakwaze kwasala indodana kuyo ngaphandle kukaJehowahazi, icinathunjana lamadodana ayo.
Pii mai la lakou i Iuda a komo iloko, a lawe aku i na mea a pau i loaa ia lakou iloko o ka hale o ke alii, a i kana poe keiki, a me na wahine ana; aole i koe ia ia kekahi keiki, o Iehoaza wale no kana keiki pokii.
18 Langemva kwakho konke lokho iNkosi yamtshaya emathunjini akhe ngomkhuhlane ongelaselapho.
A mahope iho o keia mau mea, hahau mai la o Iehova ia ia ma kona opu i ka mai hiki ole ke hoolaia.
19 Kwasekusithi umnyaka ngomnyaka, langesikhathi sokuphuma kokucina kweminyaka emibili, amathumbu akhe aphuma ngomkhuhlane wakhe; ngakho wafa ngemikhuhlane emibi. Kodwa abantu bakhe kabambaselanga umlilo njengomlilo waboyise.
A hala kekahi mau la, i ka pau ana o na makahiki elua, pahu iwaho kona naau no kona mai. Pela oia i make ai i ka mai nui loa; aole i pupuhi wale kona poe kanaka i ke ahi nona, e like me ke puhi ana no kona poe kupuna.
20 Wayeleminyaka engamatshumi amathathu lambili esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka eyisificaminwembili eJerusalema; wahamba engaloyiseki. Basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida, kodwa hatshi emangcwabeni amakhosi.
Kanakolu ona mau makahiki a me kumamaiua i kona wa i noho alii ai, a noho alii iho la ia i na makahiki ewalu ma Ierusalema, a hele aku la ia me ka makemake ole ia mai: a ua kanuia oia iloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, aole nae iloko o na ilina o na'lii.
