Haliko, ngiisi mundu akwaniini ayitwe hiꞌgulu lyeꞌbyaha byage yenyene.*»
Hamaziya agira izibo naꞌBahedoomu
(2 Baami 14.7)
Lusiku luguma, mwami Hamaziya anakuumania Abayuda, anabatengeka biso-biso, ukukulikirana naꞌmakondo ga Yuda naꞌga Binyamiini. Baguma baabo, anababiika babe bimangizi baꞌbasirikaani kihumbi-kihumbi. Abandi, anababiika bayimangire abasirikaani igana-igana.
Ha nyuma, anaharuriisa abashosi ábâli koli talusiizi imyaka makumi gabiri, analonga abandu bihumbi magana gashatu. Yabo booshi, bâli shobwiri ukugenda mwiꞌzibo, mu kukoleesa amatumu neꞌsiribo.
Ha nyuma, anaheereza Abahisiraheeri iharija, bilo bihumbi bishatu, bagendi leeta ibindi bikalage byaꞌbasirikaani bihumbi igana, ukulyoka imwabo.
Kundu kwokwo, umuleevi wa Rurema anayiji múbwira kwokuno: «E mwami, yaba basirikaani baꞌBahisiraheeri, utakolwe kwo mwagendanwa mwiꞌzibo. Mukuba yaba Bahisiraheeri, Nahano, bataki ririinwi. Ee! Abahifurahimu booshi, atakiri kuguma nabo. Na kundu wabona kwo mugagendanwa, munabe muli mu lwa buzira kyoba, halikago, Rurema agakuyabiriisa ngana. Mukuba, yehe ahiiti ubushobozi bwoꞌkutabaala umundu, kiri na bwoꞌkumúyabiriisa.»
Uyo muleevi wa Rurema, Hamaziya anamúbuuza: «Yaba basirikaani baꞌBahisiraheeri, si keera nabaheereza ifwaranga nyingi! Aaho! Kutagi kwo ngaki bagirira?» Na wa naye, ti: «Leka maashi! Nahano ali noꞌbushobozi bwoꞌkukugalulira ingingwe yazo.»
10 Kwokwo, yabo basirikaani beꞌHifurahimu, Hamaziya anabaleka bagalukire imwabo, banataaha bakoli rakariiri Abayuda bweneene.
11 Ulya Hamaziya anayiha ikise, anarongoora abasirikaani baage, halinde mu ndekeera yoꞌMuloba. Haaho, anakunguza izibo, anayita abatuulaga beꞌSeyiri, bihumbi ikumi. 12 Naꞌbandi bihumbi ikumi, anabagwata, anabateramana ku maala, anakizi balasha iꞌfwo, banakizi twika bitolo-bitolo.
13 Ku kyekyo kyanya, balya basirikaani beꞌHifurahimu bo Hamaziya akagalula, mbu bagende i kaaya, banagendi teera utwaya tweꞌBuyuda, kulyoka i Samariya, halinde i Beeti-Horoni. Banayita abandu bihumbi bishatu, banashahula naꞌkanyamwala keꞌbindu.
14 Ikyanya Hamaziya akaba keera ahima Abahedoomu, anagaluka, akoli hiiti imigisi yabo. Iyo migisi, anagigira ibe mizimu yage, anakizi giyikumba, iri anagiyokera amatuulo.
15 Mu kugira kwokwo, anayagaza Nahano. Kyanatuma Nahano agamútumira umuleevi. Ulya muleevi anamúbuuza: «Ewe! Kituma kikagi ukoli langaliiri imizimu yeꞌmahanga? Si itakakiza abandu baayo mu maboko gaawe?»
16 Uyo muleevi, mbu abe akiri mu múganuuza, Hamaziya anamúlongooza, ti: «Hulika! Nyandagi úkakubiika kwo ukizi hanuula mwami? Ka uloziizi kwo tukuyite?»
Uyo muleevi, kundu akaleka ukumúhanuula, haliko anadeta: «Nyiji kwo Rurema akoli shungisiri kwo agakuyita. Mukuba, keera wakola yaga mabi gooshi, wanalahira ukunyuvwiriza.»
Hamaziya ateera Abahisiraheeri
(2 Baami 14.8-20)
17 Mwami Hamaziya weꞌBuyuda, ikyanya akaba keera ahanuusa abahanuuzi baage, analungika woꞌkugendi shomboroza Yohaashi mugala Yohaazi, mwijukulu mwami Yehu waꞌBahisiraheeri, ti: «Uyijage, tulwe.»
18 Uyo mwami Yohaashi waꞌBahisiraheeri, anatumira mwami Hamaziya indumwa kwokuno: «Lusiku luguma i Lebanooni, ikishungu-shungu kyeꞌmigenge kikabwira ikiti kyoꞌmwerezi, ti: “Uyangiise munyere wawe na mugala wani.” Haliko kirya kishungu-shungu, iri inyamiishwa ikalenga ho kiri, yanakihinyata-hinyata.
19 «E Hamaziya, bwo keera wahima Abahedoomu, umutima gwawe gukola mu yidundulika. Utee beera haaho ha mwawe. Kituma kiki wangayiloogeza amakuba, halinde ukashereezibwe kuguma naꞌbandi Bayuda?»
20 Kundu Hamaziya akakengulwa kwokwo, haliko atanatwaza, si âli langaliiri imizimu yeꞌHedoomu. Kyanatuma Rurema agashungika kwo amúbiike mu maboko gaꞌbagoma.
21 Kwokwo, mwami Yohaashi waꞌBahisiraheeri anayimuka, anagendi teera Hamaziya i Beeti-Shemeeshi, mu kihugo kyeꞌBuyuda. 22 Balya Bahisiraheeri, banahima Abayuda lwoshi-lwoshi, halinde ngiisi muguma anapumukira imwage.
23 Yaho i Beeti-Shemeeshi, mwami Yohaazi waꞌBahisiraheeri anagwata mbira mwami Hamaziya weꞌBuyuda, mugala Yohaashi, na mwijukulu Ahaziya, anamúgalulira i Yerusaleemu. Uluzitiro lweꞌyo munda i Yerusaleemu, mwami Yohaazi analuhongola kwo luhande, nga meetere magana gabiri mu bula-bula, ukulyokera ku lwivi lweꞌHifurahimu, halinde ku lweꞌwa kagongo. 24 Kwakundi, anayifunda mu nyumba ya Rurema, anayabiira mweꞌnooro zooshi neꞌharija. Anayabiira kiri neꞌbirugu byoshi íbyâli riiri mwo, na íbyâli mu kihinda kyeꞌbwami, kwo byâli kizi langwa na Hobedi-Hedoomu. Anatwala kiri naꞌbandu imbohe, anagalukira i Samariya.
25 Uyo mwami Yohaashi mugala Yohaazi waꞌBahisiraheeri, ikyanya akaba keera afwa, mwami Hamaziya weꞌBuyuda, analama igindi myaka ikumi niꞌtaanu.
26 Uyo Hamaziya, igindi myazi yage, ukulyokera ku ndondeko halinde ku mbeka, iyandisirwi mu Kitaabo kyaꞌmagambo gaꞌBaami beꞌBuyuda, naꞌbeꞌHisiraheeri. 27 Ukushaagira ku kyanya Hamaziya akajanda ukukulikira Nahano, abandu beꞌYerusaleemu banagira igambi lyoꞌkumúyita. Kyanatuma agatibitira i Lakishi. Kundu kwokwo, abagoma banalungika abiitani, banamúlandiriza, banagendi múyitira yo. 28 Neꞌri bakamúyita, ikirunda kyage banayija bakiheesiri ku fwarasi, banamúziika i Yerusaleemu mu Kaaya ka Dahudi.
