2 IziKronike 25

¹U-Amasiya wayeneminyaka engamashumi amabili nanhlanu ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa, wabusa iminyaka engamashumi amabili nesishiyagalolunye eJerusalema; igama likanina lalinguJodani waseJerusalema.

²Wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova, kungenganhliziyo epheleleyo.

³Lapho umbuso usuqinisiwe kuye, wazibulala izinceku zakhe ezaziyibulele inkosi uyise.

⁴Kepha akababulalanga abantwana babo, wenza njengokulotshiweyo emthethweni encwadini kaMose, lapho uJehova eyala khona ngokuthi: “Oyise abayikufa ngenxa yabantwana, nabantwana abayikufa ngenxa yabantwana. Oyise, kodwa yilowo nalowo uyakufa ngesakhe isono.

⁵Ngaphezu kwalokho, u-Amaziya wabizela ndawonye uJuda futhi wabenza izinduna zezinkulungwane nezinduna zamakhulu ngokwezindlu zoyise kulo lonke elakwaJuda noBhenjamini; amadoda, akwazi ukuya empini, ekwazi ukuphatha umkhonto nesihlangu.

⁶Waqasha kwa-Israyeli amaqhawe anamandla ayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu ngamatalenta ayikhulu esiliva.

⁷Kepha kwafika kuye umuntu kaNkulunkulu, wathi: “O nkosi, impi yakwa-Israyeli mayingahambi nawe; ngoba uJehova akakho ku-Israyeli, okungukuthi, kubo bonke abantwana bakwa-Efrayimi.

⁸Kepha uma nifuna ukuhamba, qinani empini; uNkulunkulu uyakuniyeka niwele phambi kwesitha, ngokuba uNkulunkulu unamandla okusiza nokuwisa.

⁹U-Amasiya wayesethi kulowo muntu kaNkulunkulu: “Kepha siyakwenzani ngamatalenta ayikhulu engalinika impi yakwa-Israyeli na?” Umuntu kaNkulunkulu wasesithi: I Nkosi inamandla okukunika okungaphezu kwalokho.

¹⁰U-Amasiya wayesebahlukanisa, impi eyafika kuye ivela kwa-Efrayimi ukuba ibuyele ekhaya; ngalokho intukuthelo yabo yamvuthela uJuda, babuyela ekhaya bethukuthele kakhulu.

¹¹U-Amasiya wamqinisa, wahola abantu bakhe, waya eSigodini Sikasawoti, wabulala abantwana bakwaSeyiri abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi.

¹²Futhi abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi ababesele bephila, abantwana bakwaJuda babathumba babayisa esiqongweni sedwala, babaphonsa phansi esiqongweni sedwala, baze baphahlazeka bonke.

¹³Kepha abantu bempi u-Amasiya ayebabuyise ukuba bangayi naye empini, bahlasela imizi yakwaJuda, kusukela eSamariya kuze kube seBeti Horoni, babulala kuyo izinkulungwane ezintathu, baphanga impango eningi.

¹⁴Kwathi lapho u-Amasiya esebuyile ekubulaleni abakwa-Edomi, waletha onkulunkulu babantwana bakwaSeyiri, wabamisa babe onkulunkulu bakhe, wakhothamela phambi kwabo, kwashunqa umusi kubo.

¹⁵Ngakho intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela u-Amaziya, wathumela umprofethi kuye owathi kuye: “Ufuneleni onkulunkulu babantu ababengakwazi ukusindisa abantu babo esandleni sakho na?

¹⁶Esakhuluma naye, inkosi yathi kuye: “Wenziwa ngokwesiluleko senkosi na?” ibhere; kungani kufanele ushaywe? Umprofethi wawumisa wathi: “Ngiyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu unqume ukunibhubhisa, ngokuba nenze lokhu, anilalelanga iseluleko sami.

¹⁷U-Amasiya inkosi yakwaJuda wayeseluleka, wathumela kuJowashi indodana kaJehowahazi kaJehu, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathi: “Woza sibonane ubuso nobuso.

¹⁸UJowashi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathumela ku-Amaziya inkosi yakwaJuda, wathi: “Ikhakhasi laseLebanoni lathumela emsedarini oseLebanoni, lathi: “Nika indodakazi yakho ibe ngumkami, futhi lapho-ke isihlahla sokhula saseLebanoni sathumela kumsedari oseLebanoni. Yadlula isilo sasendle eLebanoni, sanyathela ukhula.

¹⁹Lithi: Khangela, ubatshayile abakwaEdoma; futhi inhliziyo yakho ikuphakamisele enkazimulweni; hlala ekhaya manje; Ugxambukelani ebubini bakho, ukuze uwe, wena noJuda kanye nawe?

²⁰Kepha u-Amasiya akalalelanga; ngokuba kwavela kuNkulunkulu ukubanikela esandleni sezitha zabo, ngokuba babefuna onkulunkulu bakwa-Edomi.

²¹Khona uJowashi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli wenyuka; babonana ubuso nobuso, yena no-Amasiya, inkosi yakwaJuda, eBeti Shemeshi lakwaJuda.

²²UJuda waba nolaka phambi kuka-Israyeli, babaleka, kwaba yilowo nalowo etendeni lakhe.

²³UJowashi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli wambamba u-Amaziya inkosi yakwaJuda indodana kaJowashi kaJehowahazi eBeti Shemeshi, wamyisa eJerusalema, wadiliza ugange lwaseJerusalema kusukela eSangweni lakwa-Efrayimi kuze kube sekugcineni. ESangweni Legumbi: izingalo ezingamakhulu amane.

²⁴Wathatha lonke igolide, nesiliva, nazo zonke izitsha ezatholakala endlini kaNkulunkulu ku-Obede Edomi, nengcebo yendlu yenkosi, nabathunjwa, wabuyela eSamariya.

²⁵U-Amasiya indodana kaJowashi, inkosi yakwaJuda, wayesekhona iminyaka eyishumi nanhlanu emva kokufa kukaJowashi, indodana kaJehowahazi, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli.

²⁶Ezinye izindaba zika-Amasiya, ezokuqala nezokugcina, bheka, azilotshiwe yini encwadini yamakhosi akwaJuda nakwa-Israyeli na?

²⁷Kwathi emva kwesikhathi u-Amasiya asuka ngaso kuJehova bamakhela uzungu eJerusalema; wabalekela eLagishi, kepha bathumela eLagishi, bambulala khona.

²⁸Bamthwala ngamahhashi, bammbela koyise emzini wakwaJuda.
