Chapter 28

1 UAhazi ubeminyaka imashumi mabini ezelwe, ukuba ngukumkani kwakhe; waba neminyaka elishumi elinamithandathu engukumkani eYerusalem. Akakwenza okuthe tye emehlweni kaYehova njengoDavide uyise;
2 wahamba ngeendlela zookumkani bakwaSirayeli, kananjalo wabenzela ooBhahali imifanekiso etyhidiweyo.
3 Waqhumisela yena emfuleni waseBhen-hinom, wabatshisa oonyana bakhe ngomlilo, ngokwamasikizi eentlanga awazigqogqayo uYehova phambi koonyana bakaSirayeli.
4 Wabingelela waqhumisela ezigangeni, nasezindulini, naphantsi kwemithi yonke eluhlaza.
5 UYehova, uThixo wakhe, wamnikela esandleni sokumkani wama-Aram; ameyisa, athimba kuye into eninzi yabathinjwa, abasa eDamasko. Kananjalo wanikelwa esandleni sokumkani wakwaSirayeli, uPeka; wabulala kwimpi yakhe kakhulu.
6 UPeka, unyana kaRemaliya, wabulala kumaYuda ikhulu elinamanci amabini lamawaka ngamini-nye, bonke bengamadoda anobukroti, ngokushiya kwabo uYehova, uThixo wooyise.
7 UZikri, igorha lakwaEfrayim, wabulala uMahaseya unyana wokumkani, noAzerikam inganga yendlu yakhe, noElikana onganeno kokumkani.
8 Oonyana bakaSirayeli bathimba kubazalwana babo amakhulu amabini amawaka, abafazi, noonyana, neentombi, kananjalo babaphanga amaxhoba amaninzi, bawazisa amaxhoba lawo kwaSamari.
9 Apho ke bekukho umprofeti kaYehova, ogama linguOdede. Waphuma waya kukhawulela umkhosi owawusiza kwaSamari, wathi kubo, Yabonani, ngenxa yobushushu bukaYehova, uThixo wooyihlo, obukumaYuda, uwanikele ezandleni zenu; nibabulele ke ngomsindo ode waya kufikelela emazulwini.
10 Kaloku ke oonyana bakwaYuda neYerusalem, nithe nina niya kubanyathela, babe ngamakhoboka namakhobokazana kuni. Kodwa nina aninatyala na kuYehova uThixo wenu?
11 Ndiphulaphuleni ngoko, nibabuyise abathinjwa, enabathimba kubazalwana benu; ngokuba ukuvutha komsindo kukaYehova kuphezu kwenu.
12 Kwesuka ke amadoda akwiintloko zoonyana bakaEfrayim, ooAzariya unyana kaYohanan, noBherekiya unyana kaMeshilemoti, noHezekiya unyana kaShalum, noAmasa unyana kaHadelayi, ema phambi kwabavela emkhosini;
13 athi kubo, Ningabazisi apha abathinjwa, ukuze sibe netyala kuYehova; nifuna ukongeza esonweni sethu nasetyaleni lethu; ngokuba, inene, likhulu ityala lethu, nokuvutha komsindo kuphezu kwamaSirayeli.
14 Abaxhobileyo babashiya ke abathinjwa namaxhoba phambi kwabathetheli nebandla lonke.
15 Asuka ke amadoda akhankanywe ngamagama, abathabatha abathinjwa, abambathisa bonke ababeze phakathi kwabo ngamaxhoba, abambathisa, abanxiba iimbadada, abadlisa, abaseza, abathambisa, abathundeza ngamaesile bonke abatyhafileyo, abasa eYeriko, kumzi wamasundu, kubazalwana babo; wona abuya aya kwaSamari.
16 Ngelo xesha ukumkani uAhazi wathumela ke kookumkani baseAsiriya ukuba baze kumnceda.
17 Ngaphezu koko eza amaEdom, abulala amaYuda, athimba abathinjwa.
18 NamaFilisti ayingenela imizi yasezintilini, neyasezantsi yakwaYuda, ayithimba iBhete-shemeshe, neAyalon, neGederoti, neSoko namagxamesi ayo, neTimna namagxamesi ayo, neGimzo namagxamesi ayo, ahlala khona.
19 Ngokuba uYehova wawathoba amaYuda ngenxa ka-Ahazi, ukumkani wakwaSirayeli; ngokuba wenza inyala kwaYuda, wenza ubumenemene kuYehova.
20 UTilegati-pilenezere, ukumkani waseAsiriya, wamfikela, wambandezela, akamomeleza;
21 ngokuba uAhazi wayeyiphangile indlu kaYehova, nendlu yokumkani, nabathetheli, wanika ukumkani waseAsiriya; akwamnceda nto noko.
22 Ngexesha lokubandezelwa kwakhe waphinda wenza ubumenemene kuYehova, yena ukumkani uAhazi.
23 Wabingelela kwizithixo zaseDamasko ezazimeyisile, wathi, Izithixo zookumkani bama-Aram ezawancedayo, ndobingelela kuzo; zondinceda nam. Ke zona zaba sisikhubekiso kuye nakumaSirayeli onke.
24 UAhazi wazihlanganisa iimpahla zendlu kaThixo, wazinqunqa iimpahla zendlu kaThixo, wazivala iingcango zendlu kaYehova. Wazenzela izibingelelo ezimbombeni zonke zaseYerusalem,
25 wenza iziganga emizini yonke ngaminye yakwaYuda, zokuqhumisela thixweni bambi; wamqumbisa uYehova uThixo wooyise.
26 Ezinye izinto zakhe, neendlela zakhe zonke ezokuqala nezokugqibela, nanzo zibhaliwe encwadini yookumkani bakwaYuda nabakwaSirayeli.
27 UAhazi walala kooyise, bamngcwabela kuwo umzi oyiYerusalem; ke abamzisanga emangcwabeni ookumkani bakwaSirayeli. UHezekiya, unyana wakhe, waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe.
