Manase, inkhosi yakaJuda

¹ Manase abeneminyaka leli-12 budzala, nakabekwa kuba yinkhosi. Wabusela eJerusalema iminyaka lengema-55.

² Manase wenta lokubi emehlweni aSimakadze, alandzela leto tintfo letatisinengiso letatentiwa nguleto tive Simakadze latidvungulula ngesikhatsi nakufika sive sema-Israyeli.

³ Wavusa kabusha tindzawo letiphakeme tekukhontela tithico, letatibhidlitwe nguyise Hezekiya, waphindze wakha emalati aBhali, wamisa netinsika ta-Ashera. Wakhotsama wakhonta tonkhe tinkhanyeti tesibhakabhaka.

⁴ Wakha emalati ekhatsi ethempelini laSimakadze, Simakadze labekhulume ngalo watsi: “Libito lami ngiyakulibeka eJerusalema phakadze naphakadze.”

⁵ Kuto totimbili tibuya telithempeli laSimakadze wakha emalati ekukhonta tinkhanyeti.

⁶ Wanikela ngemadvodzana akhe kutsi ashiswe emlilweni eSigodzini sakaBheni Hinomu, wangenela bungoma, nemilingo, nebutsakatsi, watihlanganisa nalabanemadloti nalabaphengulako. Wenta lokubi kakhulu emehlweni aSimakadze, wamtfukutselisa.

⁷ Watsatsa lesithico labesasibatile wasingenisa ethempelini laNkulunkulu, lelo Nkulunkulu labekhulume ngalo kuDavide nakuSolomoni, umsa wakhe, watsi: “Kulelithempeli naseJerusalema lengiyikhetse emkhatsini wato tonkhe tive tema-Israyeli ngitawubeka Libito lami kuyo phakadze naphakadze.

⁸ Ngingeke ngiphindze ngente tinyawo tema-Israyeli tibe solomane tizulazula tisuka kulelive lengalipha bokhokho bawo, kuphela nje nangabe bangacaphela kutsi bente konkhe loko lengabayala ngako mayelana nayo yonkhe imitsetfo, netimiso, neteluleko lengabanika tona ngaMosi.”

⁹ Kodvwa Manase wabedukisa bantfu bakaJuda nebaseJerusalema, ngako benta lokubi kakhulu kwendlula letive letabhujiswa nguSimakadze, ngesikhatsi nakufika ema-Israyeli.

Kuphendvuka kwaManase

¹⁰ Simakadze wakhuluma kuManase nakubantfu bakhe, kodvwa abazange bamnake.

¹¹ Ngako Simakadze wehlisela etikwabo libutfo letindvuna temphi tenkhosi yase-Asiriya, tefika tatfumba Manase, tamfaka lihhuka lapha ekhaleni, tambopha ngetinketane telitfusi, tahamba naye tammikisa eBhabhulona.

¹² Manase wafunisisa Simakadze asasekuhluphekeni, wafuna lusito lwaSimakadze Nkulunkulu wakhe, watitfoba kakhulu embikwaNkulunkulu waboyisemkhulu.

¹³ Watsi nakathandaza kuye, Simakadze watsintseka ngalokuncusa kwakhe, wakulalela kutincengela kwakhe, wase umbuyisela emuva eJerusalema nasembusweni wakhe. Kusukela lapho-ke Manase wati kutsi Simakadze nguNkulunkulu.

¹⁴ Emvakwaloko Manase wakha kabusha lubondza lwangaphandle kweliDolobha laDavide, ngasenshonalanga nesiyalu saseGihoni esigodzini, kuze kuyewuma ekungeneni kweLisango Lenhlanti, lutungeleta intsaba i-Ofeli, walwenta lwaphakama kakhulu. Wemisa tindvuna temabutfo emphi kuwo onkhe emadolobha latinqaba akaJuda.

¹⁵ Watisusa tonkhe tithico tebetive, wesusa nalesitfombe labesibeke ethempelini laSimakadze, kanye nawo onkhe lamalati labesawakhe entsabeni yelithempeli naseJerusalema; konkhe wakulahlela ngaphandle kwelidolobha.

¹⁶ Wabe sewubuyisela lilati laSimakadze, wenta nemhlatjelo webudlelwane nemnikelo wekubonga etikwalo, watjela sonkhe sive sakaJuda kutsi asikhonte Simakadze, Nkulunkulu wema-Israyeli.

¹⁷ Noko bantfu bona bachubeka kwenta imihlatjelo etindzaweni letiphakeme lababekhonta kuto tithico, kodvwa babeyentela Simakadze, Nkulunkulu wabo, yena yedvwa.

Kuphela kwembuso waManase

¹⁸ Leminye imininingwane ngekubusa kwaManase, lokufaka ekhatsi umthandazo wakhe lawenta kuNkulunkulu, nemavi lakhulunywa kuye ngumboniswa egameni laSimakadze, Nkulunkulu wema-Israyeli, kubhaliwe encwadzini yemilandvo yemakhosi aka-Israyeli.

¹⁹ Umthandazo wakhe, nekutsi Nkulunkulu watsintseka kanjani ngekutincengela kwakhe, kanye nato tonkhe tono takhe, nekungetsembeki kwakhe, netindzawo letiphakeme tekukhontela tithico, lapho bekakhe khona titfombe letikhontwako, wagcumeka netinsika ta-Ashera netithico, ngalesikhatsi asengakatitfobi, konkhe loko kubhaliwe etincwadzini tebaboniswa.

²⁰ Manase wase uyakhotsama, wafihlwa esigodlweni sakhe. Amoni, umsa wakhe, wase uba yinkhosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Amoni, inkhosi yakaJuda

²¹ Amoni abeneminyaka lengema-22 budzala, nakabekwa kuba yinkhosi. Wabusela eJerusalema iminyaka lemibili.

²² Wenta lokubi emehlweni aSimakadze, walingisa uyise Manase. Amoni wakhonta, wenta imihlatjelo kuto tonkhe tithico letatibatwe nguyise Manase.

²³ Kodvwa yena akazange afute uyise Manase, ngobe akazange aphendvuke, atitfobe embikwaSimakadze, Amoni wachubeka wadlanga ngebubi bakhe.

²⁴ Tiphatsimandla ta-Amoni tamakhela luzungu, tamenta silo sengubo, tambulalela endlunkhulu yakhe.

²⁵ Kodvwa sonkhe sive salelo live sababulala bonkhe labo lababente luzungu lwekubulala Amoni, inkhosi; sabeka Josaya, umsa wakhe, kutsi abe yinkhosi esikhundleni sakhe.
