¹Amazia akanga ana makore makumi maviri namashanu pakutanga kwake kubata ushe; akabata ushe paJerusaremu makore makumi maviri namapfumbamwe, zita ramai vake rakanga riri Jehoadhani weJerusaremu

¹¶ E rua tekau ma rima nga tau o Amatia i tona kingitanga, a e rua tekau ma iwa nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa hoki o tona whaea, ko Iehoarana, no Hiruharama.

²Iye akaita zvakarurama pamberi paJehovha, asi haana kuita nomoyo wose.

²Na he tika tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, engari kihai i tapatahi te ngakau

³Zvino akati asimba paushe hwake, akauraya varanda vake vakauraya mambo baba vake.

³A, ka pumau tona kingitanga, katahi ka whakamatea e ia ana tangata, nana nei i patu tona papa, te kingi.

⁴Asi haana kuuraya vana vavo, asi akaita sezvakanyorwa pamurayiro pabhuku yaMozisi, sezvakarairwa naJehovha, achiti, Madzibaba haafaniri kufira vana vavo, navana havafaniri kufira madzibaba avo; asi munhu mumwe nomumwe anofanira kufira zvivi zvake.

⁴Ko a raua tama ia kihai i whakamatea; engari i rite tana ki te mea i tuhituhia i te ture i te pukapuka a Mohi, ki ta Ihowa i whakahau ra, Kaua nga matua e mate mo to nga tamariki; kaua hoki nga tamariki e mate mo to nga matua; engari me mate tene i mo tona hara, tenei mo tona hara.

⁵Amazia akaunganidzawo vaJudha, akagadza pamusoro pavo vatariri vezviuru navatariri vamazana nedzimba dzamadzibaba avo, ivo vaJudha vose navaBhenjamini; akavaverenga, vose vamakore ana makumi maviri navakapfuura, akavawana vari varume vane zviuru zvina mazana matatu vakatsaurwa, vaigona kurwa, vaigona kurwa nepfumo nenhovo.

⁵Na i huihuia hoki e Amatia a Hura, a whakaritea ana he rangatira mano, he rangatira rau mo nga whare o o ratou matua, puta noa i a Hura katoa raua ko Pineamine. A taua ana ratou e ia, te hunga e rua tekau, he maha ake hoki, nga tau, a ka kitea e toru rau mano, whiriwhiri rawa, he hunga haere ki te whawhai, he hunga hapai i te tao, i te whakangungu rakau.

⁶Akaripirawo varume vane simba noumahare vane zviuru zvine zana vavaIsiraeri, akavapa matarenda* ane zana esirivha.

⁶I utua ano hoki e ia etahi o Iharaira, kotahi rau mano, he marohirohi, he maia, kotahi rau taranata hiriwa.

⁷Asi mumwe munhu waMwari akauya kwaari, akati, Haiwa, mambo, hondo yavaIsiraeri ngairege kuenda nemi, nekuti Jehovha haapo panaIsiraeri, pavana vaEfuraimu vose.

⁷Na, ko te taenga mai o tetahi tangata a te Atua ki a ia, ka mea E te kingi, kaua te taua a Iharaira e haere tahi koutou, no te mea kahore a Ihowa i a Iharaira, ara i nga tama katoa a Eparaima.

⁸Asi endai imwi moga, shingai murwe nesimba; Mwari angakukundisai navavengi here? Nekuti Mwari ane simba rokubatsira nerokukundisa.

⁸Otiia ki te haere koe, kia toa, kia kaha ki te whawhai; ma Ihowa ano koe e turaki i te aroaro o te hoariri; he kaha hoki to te Atua ki te awhina, ki te turaki.

⁹Ipapo Amazia akati kumunhu waMwari, Zvino tichaita seiko pamusoro pamatarenda* ane zana andakapa pfumo ravaIsiraeri? Munhu waMwari akapindura, akati, Jehovha anogona kukupai zvinopfuura izvozvo kwazvo.

⁹Na ka mea atu a Amatia ki te tangata a te Atua, Ha, me pehea nga taranata kotahi rau i hoatu e ahau ki te taua a Iharaira? Ano ra ko te tangata a te Atua, E ahei ana i te Atua te homai ki a koe kia rahi noa ake i tenei.

¹⁰Ipapo Amazia akavaraura, iro pfumo rakanga rauya kwaari richibva kwaEfuremu, kuti vadzokerezve kumusha; nemhaka iyo vakatsamwira Judha kwazvo, vakadzokera kumusha vatsamwa kwazvo.

¹⁰Katahi ratou ka wehea atu e Amatia, ara te taua i haere mai ki a ia i Eparaima, kia hoki ki to ratou na wahi. Na mura rawa to ratou riri ki a Hura, a hoki ana ki to ratou wahi, mura tonu te riri.

¹¹Zvino Amazia akatsunga moyo, akatungamirira vanhu vake, akaenda kuMupata woMunyu, akauraya vana vaSeiri vane zviuru zvine gumi.

¹¹Na ka whakapakari a Amatia i a ia, a arahina ana e ia tona iwi, haere ana ki Raorao Tote, patua iho e ia nga tama a Heira, kotahi tekau mano.

¹²Vana vaJudha vakatapa vane zviuru zvine gumi vari vapenyu, vakaenda navo pamusoro pedombo, vakavakandira pasi padombo, vakavhunikanya vose.

¹²Na, ko era atu mano, kotahi tekau, i ora nei, whakaraua ana e nga tama a Hura, kawea ana ki te tihi o te kamaka, maka atu ana i te tihi o te kamaka, a mongamonga noa ratou katoa.

¹³Asi varume vehondo vakanga vadzoswa naAmazia, kuti varege kundorwa naye, vakandowira maguta aJudha, kubva paSamaria kusvikira paBhetihoroni, vakauraya vanhu vane zviuru zvitatu kwavari, vakapambara zvizhinji.

¹³Otiia, ko nga tangata o te taua i whakahokia nei e Amatia, kei haere tahi ratou ki te whawhai, whakaekea ana e ratou nga pa o Hura, o Hamaria mai ano a tae noa ki Petehorono, patua iho etahi o ratou, e toru mano, nui atu hoki te taonga i pahuati a e ratou.

¹⁴Zvino Amazia akati achidzoka pakuuraya vaEdhomu, akauya navamwari vavana vaSeiri, akavaita vamwari vake, akavafugamira, nokuvapisira zvinonhuhwira.

¹⁴¶ A, muri i te taenga mai o Amatia i te patunga i nga Eromi, ka mauria mai e ia nga atua o nga tama a Heira, na ka whakaturia e ia hei atua mona, koropiko ana ia ki mua i a ratou, tahuna ana e ia he whakakakara ki a ratou.

¹⁵Saka Jehovha akatsamwira Amazia, akatuma muporofita kwaari; iye akati kwaari, Wakabvunzireiko vamwari vavanhu vakakoniwa kurwira vanhu vavo pamaoko ako?

¹⁵Na reira ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a Amatia, a unga ana mai e ia he poropiti ki a ia, hei korero ki a ia, He aha koe i rapu ai i ta nga atua o te iwi na? kihai na hoki to ratou iwi i whakaorangia e ratou i tou ringa.

¹⁶Zvino wakati achataura naye, mambo akati kwaari, Takakuita gurukota ramambo here? Nyarara, uchaurayirweiko? Ipapo muporofita akanyarara, asi akati, Ndinoziva kuti Mwari anofunga kukuparadza, nekuti wakaita izvozvi, ukasateerera zvandakakuraira.

¹⁶Na, i a ia e korero ana ki a ia, ka mea te kingi ki a ia, Kua waiho ranei koe hei kaiwhakatakoto whakaaro mo te kingi? Kati tau; mo te aha koe kia patua? Na mutu ake ta te poropiti; otiia i ki ano ia, E mohio ana ano ahau kua takoto to te Atua w hakaaro mou, kia ngaro, mo tau meatanga i tenei, mou hoki kihai i rongo ki toku whakaaro.

¹⁷Ipapo Amazia mambo waJudha akatsvaka zano, akatuma kuna Joashi mwanakomana waJehoahazi, mwanakomana waJehu, mambo waIsiraeri, akati, Uya tivonane.

¹⁷¶ Katahi a Amatia kingi o Hura ka whakatakoto whakaaro, a unga tangata ana ki a Ioaha tama a Iehoahata tama a Iehu kingi o Iharaira, hei ki atu, Tena, taua ka titiro tetahi ki te kanohi o tetahi.

¹⁸Joashi mambo waIsiraeri akatuma shoko kuna Amazia mambo waJudha, akati, Rukato rwakanga ruri paRebhanoni rwakatuma shoko kumusidhari wakange uri paRebhanoni, rukati, Ipa mwanakomana wangu mukunda wako ave mukadzi wake, zvino imwe mhuka yakanga iri paRebhanoni ikapfuurapo, ikatsika-tsika rukato.

¹⁸Na ka unga tangata a Ioaha kingi o Iharaira ki a Amatia kingi o Hura, hei ki atu, i tono karere te tataramoa i Repanona ki te hita i Repanona, hei ki atu, Homai tau tamahine hei wahine ma taku tama. Na ko te haerenga atu o tetahi kirehe i Repano na, takahia iho e ia taua tataramoa.

¹⁹Iwe unoti, Tarira wakunda Edhomu; zvino moyo wako wava namanyawi, wozvikudza; gara hako zvino kumusha kwako; nekuti uchatsvakireiko njodzi, uwiremo, iwe naJudha pamwechete newe?

¹⁹E ki ana koe, Na, kua patua e koe Eroma; a kua whakanekehia ake koe e tou ngakau kia whakapehapeha. E noho ra ki tou whare: he aha koe ka whakapataritari ai, e kino ai koe, e hinga ai koe, a koe na, koutou tahi ko Hura?

²⁰Asi Amazia akaramba kunzwa; nekuti zvakanga zvichibva kuna Mwari, kuti avaise mumaoko avavengi vavo; nekuti vakanga vatevera vamwari vaEdhomu.

²⁰Otiia kihai a Amatia i rongo; na te Atua hoki tena, kia hoatu ai ratou e ia ki te ringa o o ratou hoariri, mo ratou i rapu tikanga i nga atua o Eroma.

²¹Naizvozvo Joashi mambo waIsiraeri akaenda; iye naAmazia mambo waJudha vakarwa paBhetishemeshi riri paJudha.

²¹Heoi haere ana a Ioaha kingi o Iharaira, a ka titiro raua ko Amatia kingi o Hura, tetahi ki te kanohi o tetahi, ki Petehemehe o Hura.

²²Judha vakakundwa naIsiraeri, mumwe nomumwe akatizira kutende rake.

²²Na kua patua a Hura i te aroaro o Iharaira, a rere ana ratou, tena ki tona teneti, tena ki tona teneti.

²³Joashi mambo walsiraeri akasunga Amazia mambo waJudha, mwanakomana waJoashi, mwanakomana waJehoahazi, paBhetishemeshi, akaenda naye Jerusaremu, akaputsa rusvingo rweJerusaremu, kubva pasuwo raEfuremu kusvikira pasuwo rapakona, makubhiti ana mazana mana.

²³I mau ano a Amatia kingi o Hura tama a Ioaha tama a Iehoahata i a Ioaha kingi o Iharaira ki Petehemehe, a kawea ana ia ki Hiruharama, wawahia ana e ia te taiepa o Hiruharama, i te kuwaha mai ano o Eparaima taea noatia te kuwaha o te koki, e wha rau whatianga.

²⁴Akatora ndarama yose nesirivha, nemidziyo yose yakawanikwa mumba maMwari kuna Obhedhi-Edhomu, nefuma yomumba mamambo, navanhu kuzova rubatso, akadzokera Samaria.

²⁴Na, ko te koura katoa, ko te hiriwa, me nga oko katoa i kitea ki te whare o te Atua, ki a Opereeroma, me nga taonga o te whare o te kingi, me etahi tangata hei taumau, tangohia ake e ia, a hoki ana ki Hamaria.

²⁵Zvino Amazia mwanakomana waJoashi mambo waJudha wakagara ari mupenyu makore ane gumi namashanu shure kokufa kwaJoashi mwanakomana waJehoahazi mambo waIsiraeri.

²⁵A tekau ma rima nga tau i ora ai a Amatia tama a Ioaha kingi o Hura i muri i te matenga o Ioaha tama a Iehoahata kingi o Iharaira.

²⁶Zvino mamwe mabasa aAmazia, okutanga nookupedzisira, tarirai, haana kunyorwa here mubhuku yamadzimambo aJudha naIsiraeri?

²⁶Na, ko era atu meatanga a Amatia, o mua, me o muri, nana, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga kingi o Hura, o Iharaira?

²⁷Zvino kubva panguva yakarega Amazia kutevera Jehovha, vakamurangana, vakamumukira paJerusaremu; iye ndokutizira Rakishi; asi vakatuma vanhu Rakishi vachimutevera, vakamuurayirapo.

²⁷Na no muri i te wa i mahue ai i a Amatia te whai i a Ihowa, ka whakatupuria he he mona ki Hiruharama, a rere ana ia ki Rakihi. Otiia ka unga tangata ratou ki te whai i a ia ki Rakihi, a whakamatea iho ia ki reira.

²⁸Vakauya naye pamabhiza, vakamuviga kumadzibaba ake muguta raJudha.

²⁸A mauria ana mai i runga hoiho, tanumia ana ki te taha o ona matua, ki te pa o Hura.
