11

Bwanyima y'ebyo Abamoabu, Abaamoni n'abamwe aha Bameuni bakaija kurwanisa Yehoshafaati. 2Haija abantu baagambira Yehoshafaati bati: Omutwe muhango gw'engabo guri omu muhanda niguruga Edomu, seeri y'enyanja, gwizire kukuteera; reeba, baahika Hazazoni-tamaari, niyo Enigeedi. 32 Ahonaaho Yehoshafaati yaatiina, yaamariirira kusherura MUKAMA, kandi yaaragiira Abayuda boona kwesiibyakwo. 4Abayuda baayeteerana kusherura obuhwezi ahari MUKAMA; baaruga omu ndembo z'omuri Yuda zoona kuza kusherura MUKAMA.

5Yehoshafaati yaayemerera ahagati y'omutwe gw'Abayuda n'aba Yerusaalemu, abateeraniire omu nju ya MUKAMA omu maisho g'ekikaari kisya, 63 yaagira ati: Ai MUKAMA, Ruhanga wa baatatenkuriitwe, tiiwe Ruhanga ow'omu iguru? Tiiwe orikutegyeka obugabe bwona obw'amahanga? Omu mukono gwawe harimu obushoboorozi n'amaani, tihariho orikubaasa kukuza omu kaso. 74 Ai Ruhanga waitu, torabingire abatuuzi b'omuri egi nsi omu maisho g'abantu baawe Israeli, okagiha baijukuru ba Abrahamu munywani waawe kuba eyaabo ebiro byona? 8Kandi kwo bakagituuramu, baayombekyeramu eiziina ryawe Omwanya ogurikwera, nibagira bati: 95 Akabi ku karituhikaho, rurara, okugira orubanja, orufu, nari enjara, turyayemerera omu maisho g'enju egi n'omu maisho gaawe, ahakuba eiziina ryawe rituura omuri egi nju, tukutakire omu kubonabona kwaitu; naiwe ohurire kandi ojune. 106 Mbwenu reeba, Abaamoni, Abamoabu n'ab'omu bibungo bya Seiri, abu waayangire Abaisraeli ku bateera ensi yaabo, obu baabaire nibaruga omu nsi ya Misri, kureka bakabaraba hangahari, batabacwekyereze, 117 reeba oku barikutuzimuurira, nibaza kutubinga omu buhunguzi bwawe, obu waatuhaire kuhungura. 128 Ai Ruhanga waitu, torikwija kubacwera orubanja, okabafubira? Ahakuba titwine maani g'okurwanisa eri ihe rihango eriizire kuturwanisa; kandi titurikumanya oku turaagire; kureka niiwe tuhangire amaisho.

13Omuri obwo bunaku abashaija ba Yuda boona bakaba beemereire omu maisho ga MUKAMA n'abeereere baabo n'abakazi baabo n'abaana baabo. 14Ahonaaho Omwoyo wa MUKAMA yaija ahari Yahazieli mwene Zekaria, mwijukuru wa Benaaya, ya Yayeli mwene Matania, Omuleevi ow'omuri beene Asafu, ahu yaabaire ari ahagati y'ogwo mutwe. 159 Yaagira ati: Muhurire, imwe Abayuda, n'abatuuzi ba Yerusaalemu n'omugabe Yehoshafaati, oku nikwo MUKAMA arikubagambira naagira ati: Mutatiina ogu mutwe muhango gw'engabo, kandi mutahahaaza emitima; ahakuba orugamba ti rwanyu, n'orwa MUKAMA. 16Nyencakare mushuume, mubateere; nibaija kwinamukira ahu orikutembera nooza Ziizi; nimwija kubashanga aha muheru gw'oruhanga aha burugwa-izooba bw'eihamba rya Yerueli. 1710 Omuri orwo rugamba timurikwija kwetenga kurwana; muze omu myanya yaanyu, mwemerere kwonka, mureebe oku MUKAMA araabasingurire, imwe Abayuda n'aba Yerusaalemu. Mutatiina, kandi mutahahaaza emitima; nyencakare muhurure mubateere; MUKAMA naija kuba hamwe naimwe. 1811 Bwanyima Yehoshafaati yainika omutwe ahansi, yaaramya, n'Abayuda n'abatuuzi ba Yerusaalemu boona nabo baagwa omu maisho ga MUKAMA bajuumaire, nibamuramya. 1912 Abaleevi ab'omuryango gwa Kohasi, n'ab'omu gwa Koora, baayemerera kuhimbisa MUKAMA Ruhanga wa Israeli n'eiraka rihango munonga. 2013 Omu kasheeshe munonga baimuka, baaza omu ihamba rya Tekoa; ku baabaire nibakigyenda, Yehoshafaati yaayemerera, yaagira ati: Mumpurire, imwe Abayuda n'abatuuzi ba Yerusaalemu, Mwesigye MUKAMA Ruhanga waanyu, nibwo muraahamibwe; mwikirize baanabi be, nibwo muraabe gye. 2114 Ku yaaherize kuhanuura n'abantu, yaataho ab'okweshongorera MUKAMA, n'okumuhimbisa bajwaire ebirikwera, kugyenda beebembeire eihe, nibagira bati:

Musiime MUKAMA,

Ahakuba embabazi ze n'ez'ebiro byona.

22Ku baatandikire kweshongora n'okuhimbisa, MUKAMA yaataho ab'okugwera Abaamoni, n'Abamoabu n'ab'omu bibungo bya Seiri abaizire kurwanisa Abayuda; baabarabanisamu. 2315 Ahakuba Abaamoni n'Abamoabu bakagurukana abatuuzi b'omu bibungo bya Seiri, baabacwekyerereza kimwe; ku baaherize kucwekyereza aba Seiri, baayehindukiririzana, baatandika kwitana bonka, buri muntu yaita mugyenzi we. 24Abayuda ku baahikire aha munaara gw'abarinzi omu ihamba, baanaga amaisho ei ogwo mutwe gw'engabo gwabaire guri, baashanga boona baabaire emitumbi barambiire ahansi, hataine ohonokireho. 25Yehoshafaati n'abantu be ku baahikireyo kubanyaga, baashangayo amatungo maingi munonga, ebintu, ebijwaro n'ebindi bintu eby'obuguzi bwingi, baabyetwarira okuhitsya obu byabaremeireho. Ahabw'okuba bingi munonga, baamara ebiro bishatu nibanyaga. 26Aha kiro kya kana baateeranira omu ruhanga rwa Beraaka, baasiimirayo MUKAMA; nikyo ogwo mwanya gurikweterwa Beraaka n'okuhitsya hati. 27Bwanyima buri muntu ow'omu Bayuda n'aba Yerusaalemu hamwe na Yehoshafaati abeebembeire baagaruka Yerusaalemu bashemereirwe, ahakuba MUKAMA akabaha okweraata aha bazigu baabo. 28Baahika Yerusaalemu aha nju ya MUKAMA, baine enanga n'endingiri n'amakondere. 2916 Ab'omu bugabe bw'amahanga goona, ku baahuriire ngu MUKAMA arwaniise abazigu ba Israeli baashwekwa obwoba ahabw'okutiina Ruhanga. 3017 N'ahabw'ekyo obugabe bwa Yehoshafaati bwatuuza, ahakuba Ruhanga we akamuha obuhuumure embaju zoona. 3118

Okwo nikwo Yehoshafaati yaategyekire Yuda. Akatandika kutegyeka aine emyaka makumi ashatu n'etaano; yaategyekyera Yerusaalemu emyaka makumi abiri n'etaano. Nyina akaba naayetwa Azuubu muhara wa Shiluhi. 32Yaagyendera omu muhanda gwa Asa ishe, tiyaagira bu aguteishukire; kureka yaakora ebirikusiimwa MUKAMA. 33Kwonka emyanya mikuru ey'okuramizamu tiyaihwaho, ahakuba abantu bakaba batakataire mitima yaabo ahari Ruhanga wa baishenkurubo. 3419

Endiijo mirimo ya Yehoshafaati, okwiha aha kutandika okuhitsya aha muheru, ehandiikirwe omu kitabo kya Yeehu mwene Hanani eky'eby'omu busingye, ebyahandiikirwe omu kitabo ky'abagabe ba Israeli. 3520

Bwanyima y'ebyo Yehoshafaati omugabe wa Yuda yaayeteerana na Ahazia omugabe wa Israeli, owaabaire naakora kubi. 3621 Yaakwatanisa nawe kubaija emeeri z'okuza Tarushiishi, baazibaijera Ezioni-geberi. 3722 Bwanyima Eliezeeri mwene Dodavahu owa Mareesha, yaaragura ahari Yehoshafaati naagira ati: Ahabw'okweteerana na Ahazia, MUKAMA naija kucwekyereza eki obaizire. Ezo meeri zaahendagurika, tizaabaasa kuza Tarushiishi.
