u-Abiya, inkosi yakwaJuda
1Ngomnyaka weshumi nesishiyagalombili wenkosi uJerobowamu indodana kaNebati u-Abiya waba yinkosi kwaJuda.
2Wabusa eJerusalema iminyaka emithathu. Igama likanina lalinguMaga, indodakazi ka-Abisalomu.
3Wahamba ezonweni zonke zikayise azenza ngaphambi kwakhe; inhliziyo yakhe yayingaphelele kuJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe njengenhliziyo kaDavide uyise.
4Kodwa ngenxa kaDavide uJehova uNkulunkulu wakhe wamnika isibani eJerusalema ukuze avuse indodana yakhe ngemva kwakhe futhi aqinise iJerusalema.
5Ngokuba uDavide wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova, akaphambukanga kukho konke amyale ngakho zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe, kuphela endabeni ka-Uriya umHeti.
6Kwakukhona ukulwa phakathi kukaRehobowamu noJerobowamu zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakhe.
7Ezinye izindaba zika-Abiya nakho konke akwenzayo angithi kulotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwaJuda na? Kwakukhona ukulwa phakathi kuka-Abiya noJerobowamu.
8U-Abiya wayeselala koyise; bammbela emzini kaDavide; u-Asa indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
9Ngomnyaka wamashumi amabili kaJerobowamu inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, u-Asa waba yinkosi kwaJuda.
10Wabusa iminyaka engamashumi amane nanye eJerusalema. Igama likanina lalinguMaga, indodakazi ka-Abisalomu.
11U-Asa wenza okulungile emehlweni kaJehova njengoDavide uyise.
12Wabasusa abaseSodoma ezweni, wasusa zonke izithombe okhokho bakhe ababezenzile.
13Futhi nonina uMaga, naye wasusa ekubeni yindlovukazi, ngoba wenza isithombe esibaziweyo esihlahleni; u-Asa wachitha isithombe sakhe, wasishisa emfudlaneni iKidroni.
14Kodwa izindawo eziphakemeyo azizange zichezuke; kepha inhliziyo ka-Asa yayiphelele kuJehova zonke izinsuku zakhe.
15Waletha izipho uyise azingcwelisayo nazingcwelisa endlini kaJehova: isiliva negolide nezitsha.
16Kwakukhona ukulwa phakathi kuka-Asa noBahasha inkosi yakwa-Israyeli zonke izinsuku zabo.
17UBahasha, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wenyuka wamelana noJuda, wakha iRama, ukuze angavumeli muntu ukuba aphume noma angene ku-Asa, inkosi yakwaJuda.
18U-Asa wayesethatha lonke isiliva negolide elalisele engcebweni yendlu kaJehova nengcebo yendlu yenkosi, wakunika ezandleni zezinceku zakhe; inkosi u-Asa yayisithumela endodaneni kaBeni Hadadi. KaThabrimoni indodana kaHeziyoni, inkosi yase-Aramu, owahlala eDamaseku, wathi:
19Kukhona isivumelwano phakathi kwami nawe naphakathi kukababa noyihlo; bheka, ngikuthumele isipho sesiliva negolide; woza wephule isivumelwano sakho noBahasha, inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, ukuze asuke kimi.
20UBeni Hadadi wayilalela inkosi u-Asa, wathuma izinduna zempi ayenazo ukulwa nemizi yakwa-Israyeli, wachitha i-Ijoni, neDani, ne-Abela Beti Mahaga, nayo yonke iShineroti, nalo lonke izwe lakwaNafetali.
21Kwathi uBahasha ekuzwa lokho wayeka ukwakha iRama, wahlala eTirisa.
22Inkosi u-Asa yayisikhala kwaJuda wonke; basusa amatshe eRama nezingodo zayo uBahesha akha ngakho; inkosi u-Asa yakha ngazo iGeba lakwaBenjamini neMispa.
23Ezinye izindaba zika-Asa, nawo onke amandla akhe, nakho konke akwenzayo, nemizi ayakhayo, angithi kulotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwaJuda na? Nokho, ngesikhathi sokuguga kwakhe wayegula izinyawo.
24U-Asa wayeselala koyise, wembelwa koyise emzini kaDavide uyise; uJehoshafati indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
25UNadabi, indodana kaJerobowamu, waba yinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli ngomnyaka wesibili ka-Asa inkosi yakwaJuda, wabusa phezu kuka-Israyeli iminyaka emibili.
26Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova, wahamba ngendlela kayise nasesonweni sakhe onisa ngaso u-Israyeli.
27UBaesa, indodana ka-Ahiya, wendlu ka-Isakare, wamenzela ugobe; uBhahesha wamshaya eGibethoni yamaFilisti; ngoba uNadabi loIsrayeli wonke bavimbezela iGibethoni.
28Ngomnyaka wesithathu ka-Asa inkosi yakwaJuda uBhahesha wambulala, wabusa esikhundleni sakhe.
29Lapho eqala ukubusa, wachitha yonke indlu kaJerobowamu; akashiyanga noyedwa ophefumulayo kuJerobowamu, waze wamchitha njengezwi likaJehova alikhuluma ngenceku yakhe u-Ahiya waseShilo.
30Ngenxa yezono zikaJerobowamu azenzayo, onisa ngazo u-Israyeli, ngentukuthelo yakhe amthukuthelisa ngayo uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
31Ezinye izindaba zikaNadabi nakho konke akwenzayo angithi kulotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwa-Israyeli na?
32Kwakukhona ukulwa phakathi kuka-Asa noBahasha inkosi yakwa-Israyeli zonke izinsuku zabo.
33Ngomnyaka wesithathu ka-Asa inkosi yakwaJuda uBahasha indodana ka-Ahiya waba yinkosi phezu kuka-Israyeli wonke eTirisa, iminyaka engamashumi amabili nane.
34Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova, wahamba ngendlela kaJerobowamu nasesonweni sakhe onisa ngaso u-Israyeli.
