1 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lambili kaAhazi inkosi yakoJuda uHosheya indodana kaEla waba yinkosi eSamariya phezu kukaIsrayeli; wabusa iminyaka eyisificamunwemunye.
Le Ahaz, Yuda fia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuievelia me la, Hosea, Ela ƒe viŋutsu zu Israel fia le Samaria; eɖu fia ƒe asiekɛ.
2 Wasesenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi, loba kunjalo kungenjengamakhosi akoIsrayeli ayengaphambi kwakhe.
Ewɔ nu si nye vɔ̃ le Yehowa ŋkume, ke menye abe ale si Israel fia siwo do ŋgɔ nɛ la wɔ ene o.
3 UShalimaneseri inkosi yeAsiriya wenyuka wamelana laye; uHosheya wasesiba yinceku yakhe, wathela umthelo kuye.
Asiria fia Salmaneser ho aʋa ɖe Fia Hosea ŋu eye wòɖu edzi. Ale wònɔ na Israel be wòanɔ ga home gã aɖe xem na Asiria ƒe sia ƒe.
4 Kodwa inkosi yeAsiriya yafica ugobe kuHosheya, ngoba wayethume izithunywa kuSo inkosi yeGibhithe, kazabe esenyusa umthelo enkosini yeAsiriya umnyaka ngomnyaka. Ngakho inkosi yeAsiriya yamvalela yambopha entolongweni.
Fia Hosea wɔ babla kple Egipte fia So, be wòakpe ɖe ye ŋu yeaɖe ye ɖokui ɖa le Asiria fia ƒe ŋusẽ te. Ke Asiria fia va nya nu tso babla sia ŋu. Gawu la, Hosea gbe megaxea ga la na Asiria fia o. Ale Asiria fia lé Hosea de gaxɔ me eye wòde kɔsɔkɔsɔe ɖe eƒe aglãdzedze ta.
5 Inkosi yeAsiriya yasisenyukela kulo lonke ilizwe, yenyukela eSamariya, yayivimbezela iminyaka emithathu.
Azɔ la, Asiria ƒe asrafowo va yɔ Israelnyigba dzi, woɖe to ɖe Samaria, Israel ƒe fiadu la ƒe etɔ̃.
6 Ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye kaHosheya, inkosi yeAsiriya yathumba iSamariya yathumbela uIsrayeli eAsiriya, yabahlalisa eHala leHabori, umfula weGozani, lemizini yamaMede.
Mlɔeba la, le Hosea ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe asiekɛlia me la, Asiriatɔwo xɔ Samaria. Woɖe aboyo Israelviwo yi Asiria eye woɖo wo dometɔ aɖewo ɖe Hala du la me, bubuwo nɔ duwo me le Habor tɔsisi la ŋu le Gozan eye mamlɛawo nɔ Mediatɔwo ƒe du me.
7 Lokhu-ke kwenzeka ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli babonile eNkosini uNkulunkulu wabo eyayibenyuse elizweni leGibhithe ibasusa ngaphansi kwesandla sikaFaro inkosi yeGibhithe, babesabe abanye onkulunkulu,
Esiawo katã va eme elabena Israelviwo wɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, woƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ wo tso Egipte eye wòɖe wo le Farao, Egipte fia ƒe ŋusẽ te la ŋu. Wosubɔ mawu bubuwo.
8 bahamba ezimisweni zezizwe iNkosi eyayizixotshe elifeni phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, lezamakhosi akoIsrayeli, ayezenzile.
Wodze dukɔ siwo Yehowa nya le wo ŋgɔ la ƒe subɔsubɔwo yome hekpe ɖe subɔsubɔ siwo Israel fiawo he vɛ la ŋu.
9 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli benza ensitha izinto ezingalunganga bemelene leNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo. Babezakhele indawo eziphakemeyo kuyo yonke imizi yabo, kusukela enqabeni yabalindi kuze kube semzini obiyelweyo.
Israelviwo wɔ nu siwo mele eteƒe o la le bebeme ɖe Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la ŋu. Tso gbetakpɔxɔ dzi yi ɖe du si woɖo gli sesẽ ƒo xlãe la me la, woawo ŋutɔ tu nuxeƒewo ɖe woƒe duwo katã me.
10 Basebezimisela insika eziyizithombe lezixuku phezu kwawo wonke amaqaqa aphakemeyo langaphansi kwaso sonke isihlahla esiluhlaza.
Woli aƒeliwo heli aƒeliwo ɖe togbɛ kɔkɔ ɖe sia ɖe dzi kple ati dama ɖe sia ɖe te.
11 Basebetshisa lapho impepha endaweni zonke eziphakemeyo, njengezizwe iNkosi eyazikhokhelela ekuthunjweni phambi kwabo; benza izinto ezimbi ukuyithukuthelisa iNkosi.
Wodo dzudzɔ ʋeʋĩ le nuxeƒe ɖe sia ɖe abe ale si dukɔ siwo Yehowa nya le wo ŋgɔ la wɔna ene. Wowɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi siwo na Yehowa do dziku.
12 Ngoba bakhonza izithombe, iNkosi eyayithe ngazo kubo: Kaliyikuyenza linto.
Wosubɔ legbawo, evɔ Yehowa gblɔ na wo be, “Migawɔ esia o.”
13 Kanti iNkosi yafakaza imelene loIsrayeli njalo imelene loJuda ngesandla sabo bonke abaprofethi lababoni bonke isithi: Phendukani endleleni zenu ezimbi, ligcine imithetho yami, izimiso zami, njengokomlayo wonke engawulaya oyihlo lengawuthumela kini ngesandla senceku zami abaprofethi.
Yehowa xlɔ̃ nu Israel kple Yuda to nyagblɔɖilawo katã kple gbɔgbɔmenukpɔlawo dzi be, “Mitrɔ le miaƒe mɔ vɔ̃wo dzi, miwɔ ɖe nye sededewo kple ɖoɖowo dzi le se siwo katã mede na mia fofowo be woawɔ ɖe wo dzi la nu kple esiwo mede na mi to nye dɔla nyagblɔɖilawo dzi la dzi.”
14 Loba kunjalo kabalalelanga, kodwa benza lukhuni intamo yabo, njengentamo yaboyise, abangakholwanga eNkosini uNkulunkulu wabo.
Ke Israel meɖo to o. Wonye kɔlialiatɔwo abe wo fofowo ene eye womeka ɖe Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la dzi o.
15 Njalo bala izimiso zayo lesivumelwano sayo eyasenza laboyise lezifakazelo zayo eyazifakaza imelene labo, balandela ize, baba yize, balandela izizwe ezazibahanqile, iNkosi eyayibalaye ngazo ukuthi bangenzi njengazo.
Wogbe eƒe sewo kple nubabla si wòwɔ kple wo fofowo la eye wodo vlo eƒe nuxlɔ̃amenyawo. Wosubɔ ati kple kpewo ale be wova zu abunɛtɔwo. Wosrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã wo la ƒe ŋunyɔnuwo wɔwɔ, evɔ Yehowa de se na wo be, “Migawɔ abe ale si wowɔna ene la o.” Ke wogbe hewɔ nu siwo Yehowa be womegawɔ o.
16 Bayitshiya yonke imilayo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, bazenzela izithombe ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa, amathole amabili, benza isixuku, bakhothamela lonke ibutho lamazulu, bakhonza uBhali.
Wogbe Yehowa, woƒe Mawu ƒe sewo katã dzi wɔwɔ eye wololõ sika tsɔ wɔ nyivi eve. Woli aƒeli siwo nye ŋukpenanuwo eye wosubɔ Baal, ɣe, ɣleti kple ɣletiviwo.
17 Benza amadodana abo lamadodakazi abo adabule emlilweni, benza ukuvumisa, benza imilingo, bazithengisela ukwenza okubi emehlweni eNkosi ukuyithukuthelisa.
Wotsɔ wo viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo gɔ̃ hã wɔ numevɔsae le Molek ƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo dzi. Wodea afakalawo gbɔ, saa dzowo eye wotsɔ wo ɖokuiwo de asi na nu vɔ̃. Ale Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe wo ŋu vevie.
18 Ngakho iNkosi yamthukuthelela kakhulu uIsrayeli, yabasusa ebusweni bayo; kakusalanga loyedwa ngaphandle kwesizwe sakoJuda kuphela.
Eɖe wo ɖa le eƒe ŋkuta va se ɖe esime Yuda ƒe viwo koe susɔ ɖe anyigba la dzi.
19 Laye uJuda kayigcinanga imilayo yeNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, kodwa bahamba ngezimiso zikaIsrayeli abazenzayo.
Ke Yuda gɔ̃ hã gbe Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la ƒe sewo dzi wɔwɔ. Woawo hã to Israel ƒe mɔ vlowo dzi.
20 INkosi yasiyala yonke inzalo yakoIsrayeli, yayihlupha, yayinikela esandleni sabaphangi, yaze yabalahla yabasusa phambi kwayo.
Ale Yehowa gbe Israel ƒe dzidzimeviwo katã. Ehe to na wo esi wòtsɔ wo de asi na woƒe futɔwo va se ɖe esime wotsrɔ̃ wo.
21 Ngoba yamdabula uIsrayeli imsusa endlini kaDavida, basebebeka uJerobhowamu indodana kaNebati ukuthi abe yinkosi. UJerobhowamu wamqhuba wamphambula uIsrayeli ekulandeleni iNkosi, wabenza bona isono esikhulu.
Elabena Israel ɖe eɖokui ɖa tso David ƒe fiaɖuƒe la me eye wòtia Yeroboam, Nebat ƒe vi abe eƒe fia ene. Yeroboam he Israel ɖa tso Yehowa subɔsubɔ gbɔ. Ena Israelviwo wɔ nu vɔ̃
22 Ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahamba ngazo zonke izono zikaJerobhowamu azenzayo, kabasukanga kuzo,
eye womeɖe asi le nu vɔ̃ si me Yeroboam kplɔ wo dee la wɔwɔ ŋu o,
23 iNkosi yaze yamsusa uIsrayeli phambi kwayo njengokutsho kwayo ngesandla sazo zonke inceku zayo abaprofethi. Ngakho uIsrayeli wathunjwa wasuswa elizweni lakhe wasiwa eAsiriya kuze kube lamuhla.
va se ɖe esime Yehowa kplɔ wo dzoe abe ale si eƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo be woawɔ woe ene. Ale wokplɔ Israel yi Asirianyigba dzi afi si wole va se ɖe egbe.
24 Inkosi yeAsiriya yasiletha abantu abavela eBhabhiloni labavela eKutha labavela eAva labavela eHamathi labavela eSefavayimi, yabahlalisa emizini yeSamariya esikhundleni sabantwana bakoIsrayeli, badla ilifa leSamariya, bahlala emizini yayo.
Asiria fia kplɔ amewo tso Babilonia, Kuta, Ava, Hamat kple Sefarvaim ɖada ɖe Samaria ƒe duwo me ɖe Israelviwo teƒe. Ale Asiriatɔwo xɔ Samaria kple Israel du bubuwo.
25 Kwasekusithi ekuqaleni kokuhlala kwabo khona kabayesabanga iNkosi; ngakho iNkosi yathumela izilwane phakathi kwabo ezabulala abanye babo.
Ke esi Asiriatɔ siawo mesubɔa Yehowa esi wova ɖo anyigba la dzi enumake o ta la, Yehowa ɖo dzatawo ɖa wowu wo dometɔ aɖewo.
26 Ngakho bakhuluma enkosini yeAsiriya besithi: Izizwe owazisusayo wazihlalisa emizini yeSamariya kaziwazi umkhuba kaNkulunkulu walelolizwe; ngakho uthumele izilwane phakathi kwazo, khangela-ke ziyazibulala, ngoba kaziwazi umkhuba kaNkulunkulu walelolizwe.
Ale woɖo du ɖe Asiria fia be, “Mí ame siwo nèna míetso mía de va le Israel la, míenya anyigba la ƒe Mawu ƒe sewo o, ale woƒe Mawu la ɖo dzatawo ɖa be woawu mí elabena míesubɔe o.”
27 Inkosi yeAsiriya yasilaya isithi: Yisani khona omunye wabapristi elabathumbayo besuka lapho; kabayehlala khona, kabafundise umkhuba kaNkulunkulu walelolizwe.
Ale Asiria fia ɖe gbe be, “Mina nunɔla siwo mieɖe aboyoe tso Samaria la dometɔ ɖeka nagbugbɔ ayi afi ma eye wòafia nu si anyigba la ƒe Mawu di be ameawo nawɔ la mi.”
28 Ngakho omunye wabapristi ababebathumbe besuka eSamariya weza wahlala eBhetheli, wabafundisa ukuthi bangayesaba njani iNkosi.
Ale nunɔla siwo woɖe aboyoe tso Samaria la dometɔ ɖeka va nɔ Betel eye wòfia ale si woasubɔ Yehowae wo.
29 Loba kunjalo zonke izizwe zenza onkulunkulu bazo, zabafaka ezindlini zezindawo eziphakemeyo amaSamariya azenzayo, yileso laleso isizwe emizini yazo ezihlala kuyo.
Ke hã la, gbegbɔgblɔ ɖe sia ɖe gasubɔa woawo ŋutɔ ƒe mawuwo le du siwo me wole. Wosubɔa mawu siawo le nuxeƒe siwo Samariatɔwo wɔ da ɖi.
30 Labantu beBhabhiloni benza uSukothi-Benothi, labantu beKuthi benza uNerigali, labantu beHamathi benza uAshima,
Ame siwo tso Babilonia la subɔa woƒe mawu Sukot Benot. Ame siwo tso Kuta la subɔa woƒe mawu Nergal eye ame siwo tso Hamat la subɔa Asima.
31 lamaAvi enza uNibazi loTaritaki, lamaSefavayimi ayetshisa abantwana bawo emlilweni esenzela uAdrameleki loAnameleki onkulunkulu beSefavayimi.
Avitɔwo subɔa woƒe mawu siwo nye Nibhaz kple Tartak eye Sefartɔwo tsɔa wo viwo gɔ̃ hã saa numevɔe le woƒe mawu siwo nye Adramelek kple Anamelek la ƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo dzi.
32 Babeyesaba leNkosi, bazenzela abapristi bezindawo eziphakemeyo kwabaphansi kakhulu babo, ababebasebenzela ezindlini zezindawo eziphakemeyo.
Wosubɔa Yehowa hã. Woɖo nunɔlawo tso woawo ŋutɔ dome be woasa vɔ na Yehowa le vɔsamlekpui siwo nɔ toawo dzi la dzi.
33 Babeyesaba iNkosi, njalo babekhonza onkulunkulu babo njengomkhuba wezizwe ezabathumbayo besuka lapho.
Ke wogalé dukɔ siwo me wotso la ƒe mawusubɔsubɔ ƒe kɔnyinyiwo me ɖe asi kokoko.
34 Kuze kube lamuhla benza njengemikhuba yakuqala. Kabayesabi iNkosi, kabenzi njengezimiso zabo lanjengezimiselo zabo lanjengomlayo lanjengomthetho iNkosi eyakulaya abantwana bakaJakobe, owamutha ibizo elithi uIsrayeli.
Nu sia gale edzi yim le wo dome kokoko va se ɖe egbe. Wogale woƒe mawusubɔsubɔ ƒe wɔna tsãtɔwo wɔm le esime woasubɔ Yehowa nyateƒetɔe alo awɔ se siwo Yehowa na Yakob, ame si ŋkɔ wòtrɔ zu Israel dzi la teƒe.
35 INkosi eyenza isivumelwano labo, yabalaya isithi: Kaliyikwesaba abanye onkulunkulu, lingabakhothameli, lingabasebenzeli, lingabahlabeli.
Esi Yehowa wɔ nubabla kple Israelviwo la, eɖoe na wo be, “Migasubɔ mawu bubu aɖeke o, miade ta agu na wo loo alo miasa vɔ na wo o.
36 Kodwa iNkosi eyalenyusa elizweni leGibhithe ngamandla amakhulu langengalo eyeluliweyo, yona lizayesaba njalo yona lizayikhothamela njalo yona lizayihlabela.
Ke Yehowa, ame si ɖe mi tso Egipte kple ŋusẽ triakɔ kple abɔ, si wòdo ɖe dzi lae nye ame si wòle be miasubɔ. Eyae migade ta agu na eye eyae miasa vɔwo na.
37 Lezimiso lezimiselo lomlayo lomthetho eyalibhalela khona, lizaqaphelisa ukukwenza zonke izinsuku, lingesabi abanye onkulunkulu.
Ele be Yakob ƒe dzidzimeviwo nawɔ Yehowa ƒe sewo katã dzi eye womasubɔ mawu bubuwo gbeɖegbeɖe o.”
38 Lesivumelwano engasenza lani lingasikhohlwa, lingesabi abanye onkulunkulu.
Elabena Yehowa gblɔ be, “Migaŋlɔ nubabla si mewɔ kpli mi la be o. Migasubɔ mawu bubuwo gbeɖegbeɖe o.
39 Kodwa iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu lizayesaba; yona-ke izalikhulula esandleni sezitha zenu zonke.
Ele be miasubɔ Yehowa ɖeɖe ko; eyae aɖe mi tso miaƒe futɔwo katã ƒe asi me.”
40 Loba kunjalo kabalalelanga, kodwa benza njengomkhuba wabo wakuqala.
Ke wogbe toɖoɖo eye wogayi woƒe agbenɔnɔ tsãtɔ dzi ko.
41 Lezizizwe zayesaba-ke iNkosi, kodwa zakhonza izithombe zazo ezibaziweyo; bobabili abantwana bazo labantwana babantwana bazo, njengokwenza kwaboyise benza labo kuze kube lamuhla.
Esi wole Yehowa subɔm hã la, wogale woƒe legbawo subɔm. Va se ɖe egbe la, wo viwo kple woƒe tɔgbuiyɔviwo gale nu siwo wo fofowo wɔ la wɔm kokoko.
