USolomoni wakhela uKemoshi isinengiso sakwaMowabi indawo ephakemeyo entabeni engaphambi kweJer usalema, noMoloki isinengiso sabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

URehobowamu indodana kaSolomoni wabusa kwaJuda . URehobowamu wayeneminyaka engamashumi amane nanye ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa , wabusa iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa eJerusalema , umuzi awukhethileyo uJehova ezizweni zonke zakwa-Israyeli ukuba abeke khona igama lakhe ; igama likanina lalinguNahama wabakwa-Amoni.

URehobowamu wayeselala koyise , wembelwa koyise emzini kaDavide ; igama likanina lalinguNahama wabakwa-Amoni. U-Abiyamu indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Inkosi yakwa -Israyeli yathi : Mthathe uMikhaya , umbuyisele ku -Amoni, umbusi womuzi, nakuJowashi indodana yenkosi,

noSeleki wakwa-Amoni, noNaharayi waseBeroti , udibi lukaJowabe indodana kaSeruya,

abantu abaseleyo wababeka esandleni sika -Abishayi umfow abo, bazihlela ukulwa nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Wathi: Uma ama -Aramu engahlula , uyakungisiza; kepha uma abantwana bakwa-Amoni bekwahlula, ngiyakukusiza.

Lapho abantwana bakwa -Amoni bebona ukuthi ama -Aramu abalekile , babaleka nabo phambi kuka-Abishayi umfowabo , bangena emzini ; kepha uJowabe waya eJerusalema.

Lapho izinceku zikaHadarezeri zibonile ukuthi zinqotshiwe phambi kuka - Israyeli, zenza ukuthula noDavide , zamkhonza; ama-Aramu awatha ndanga ukusiza abantwana bakwa-Amoni futhi.

UDavide wathi : Ngiyakumenzela umusa uHanuni , indodana kaNahashi, ngokuba uyise wangenzela umusa . UDavide wayesethuma izithunywa ukumduduza ngoyise . Zafika-ke izinceku zikaDavide ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni kuHanuni ukumduduza.

Kepha izikhulu zabantwana bakwa -Amoni zathi kuHanuni : Imbala ngokubona kwakho u thume abaduduzi kuwe ukuba atuse uyihlo na ? Azifikanga yini izinceku zakhe kuwe ukuba ziphenye umuzi , ziwuchithe, ziwuhlole, na?

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni sebebone ukuthi bazenzile ukuba banengeke kuDavide, uHanuni nabantwana bakwa -Amoni bathuma amatalenta ayinkulungwane esiliva ukuziqashela izinqola nabamahhashi e -Aramu Naharayimi, nase-Aramu Mahakha, naseSoba.

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni baphuma , bahlela impi ngasesangweni lo muzi; kepha amakhosi ayefikile ayewodwa endle.

Emva komnyaka ngesikhathi sokuhlasela kwamakhosi , uJowabe wahola amaqhawe empi , wachitha izwe labantwana bakwa -Amoni, weza wavimbezela iRaba ; kepha uDavide wahlala eJerusalema . UJowabe walinqoba iRaba, walidiliza.

Wakhipha nabantu ababe phakathi kwawo , wabanquma ngamasaha , nangezibhuqo zensimbi , nangamazembe; wenze njalo uDavide kuyo yonke imizi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni. UDavide nabo bonke abantu babuyela eJerusalema.

Kwenyuka uNahashi wakwa-Amoni, wamisa eJabeshi Gileyadi ; bonke abantu baseJabeshi bathi kuNahashi : Yenza isivumelwano nathi , siyakukukhonza.

Kwathi ngangomuso uSawule waviva abantu ngezigaba ezintathu ; bafika phakathi kwekamu ngomlindo wokusa , babulala abakwa-Amoni, laze lashisa ilanga; kwathi abaseleyo bahlakazeka, akusalanga kubo ababili bendawonye.

UNahashi wakwa -Amoni wathi kubo : Ngiyakusenza nani ngalokhu ukuba kukhishwe onke amehlo enu okunene, ngikubeke kube yihlazo kuye wonke u- Israyeli.

Kepha lapho nabona uNahashi inkosi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni ephuma ukulwa nani , nathi kimi : Hhayi, kepha masibuswe yinkosi , ingani uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu wayeyinkosi yenu.

U-Amoni wayeneminyaka engamashumi amabili nambili ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa, wabusa iminyaka emibili eJerusalema ; igama likanina lalinguMeshulemeti, indodakazi kaHarusi waseJothiba.

Izinceku zika-Amoni zamenzela ugobe, zayibulala inkosi endlini yayo.

Kepha abantu bezwe bababulala bonke ababeyenzela inkosi u -Amoni ugobe; abantu bezwe bambeka uJosiya indodana yakhe inkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

Ezinye izindaba zika -Amoni azenzayo angithi zilotshiwe encwadini yezindaba zemihla ngemihla yamakhosi akwaJuda na?

Izindawo eziphakem eyo ezaziphambi kweJerusalema , ngakwesokunene kweNtaba Yokonakala , uSolomoni inkosi yakwa -Israyeli ayezakhele u - Ashitaroti isinengiso samaSidoni , noKemoshi isinengiso sakwaMowabi , noMilkomu isinengiso sabantwana bakwa-Amoni, inkosi yazingcolisa.

Kwathi emva kw alokho kwafika abantwana bakwaMowabi nabantwana bakwa-Amoni benabanye bamaMehuni kuJehoshafati, beyokulwa.

Lapho sebeqala ukuhalalisa nokudumisa , uJehova wabeka abaqamekeli babantwana bakwa -Amoni, nabakwaMowabi, nabaseSeyiri, ababefikele uJuda, banqotshwa.

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni nabakwaMowabi bamelana nabakhileyo entabeni yaseSeyiri ukuba babachithe, babaqothule; sebebaqedile abakhileyo eSeyiri basiza, kwaba yilowo nalowo, ngokubulalana bodwa.

Abakwa-Amoni bathela intela ku -Uziya; igama lakhe lahamba laze lafika nasekuyeni eGibithe, ngokuba waba namandla kakhulu.

Walwa nenkosi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni, wabahlula. Abantwana bakwa - Amoni bamnika ngawo lowo mnyaka amatalenta ayikhulu esiliva, namakhora ayizinkulungwane eziyishumi kakolweni , nawebhali ayizinkulungwane eziyishumi. Lokho-ke abantwana bakwa-Amoni bakuyisa kuye nangomnyaka wesibili nangowesithathu.

UManase wayeselala koyise ; bammbela endlini yakhe ; u-Amoni indodana yakhe waba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.

U-Amoni wayeneminyaka engamashumi amabili nambili ekuqaleni kwakhe ukubusa, wabusa iminyaka emibili eJerusalema.

Wenza okubi emehlweni kaJehova njengalokho enzile uManase uyise ; u- Amoni wahlabela zo nke izithombe ezibaziweyo ayezenzile uManase uyise , wazikhonza.

Kepha izikhulu zabantwana bakwa-Amoni zathi kuHanuni inkosi yazo: Imbala ngokubona kwakho uDavide uthume abaduduzi kuwe ukuba atuse uyihlo na? UDavide akazithumanga yini izinceku zakhe kuwe ukuba ziphenye umuzi, ziwuhlole, ziwuchithe, na?

Abantwana bakwa-Amoni sebebone ukuthi banengekile kuDavide , abakwa- Amoni bathuma baqasha ama -Aramu aseBeti Rehobe nama -Aramu aseSoba, imigundatshani eyizinkulungwane ezingamashumi amabili , nenkosi yaseMahakha inabantu abayinkulungwan e, nabantu baseThobi beyizinkulungwane eziyishumi nambili.

Abantwana bakwa -Amoni baphuma , bahlela impi ngasesikhaleni sesango ; ama-Aramu aseSoba naseRehobe , nabantu baseThobi , nabaseMahakha babebodwa endle.

Emva komnyaka ngesikhathi sokuhlasela kwamakhosi uDavide wamthuma uJowabe nezinceku zakhe zinaye kanye no -Israyeli wonke , babachitha abantwana bakwa-Amoni, bavimbezela iRaba ; kepha uDavide wahlala eJerusalema.

UJehova wathi kubantwana bakwa -Israyeli: Anginisindisanga yini kubo abaseGibithe, nakuwo ama-Amori, nakubo abantwana bakwa-Amoni, nakuwo amaFilisti, na?

Kwabuthwa aba ntwana bakwa -Amoni, bamisa kwaGileyadi . Kepha abantwana bakwa-Israyeli babuthana, bamisa eMispa.

Intukuthelo kaJehova yamvuthela u -Israyeli, wathengisa ngabo esandleni samaFilisti nasesandleni sabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Abantwana bakwa-Amoni bawela iJordani ukuba balwe noJuda noBenjamini nendlu yakwa-Efrayimi; u-Israyeli wantula kakhulu.

UJefta wathuma izithunywa enkosini yabantwana bakwa -Amoni, wathi: Unamsebenzi muni nami ukuba uze kimi ukulwa nezwe lakithi na?

Inkosi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni yath i kuzo izithunywa zikaJefta : Ngokuba u-Israyeli walithatha izwe lakithi ekukhuphukeni kwakhe eGibithe , kusukela e -Arinoni kuze kube seJaboki naseJordani , buyisani lawo mazwe ngokuthula.

UJefta wabuye wathuma izithunywa enkosini yabantwana bakwa-Amoni,

Mina angikonanga, kepha wena wenza okubi kimi ngokulwa nami; uJehova uMahluleli makahlulele namuhla phakathi kwabantwana bakwa -Israyeli nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Kodwa ink osi yabantwana bakwa -Amoni ayilalelanga amazwi kaJefta awathuma kuyo.

Khona uMoya kaJehova wafika kuJefta , wadlula kwaGileyadi nakwaManase, wadlula naseMispa lakwaGileyadi ; esuka eMispa lakwaGileyadi wadlulela kubantwana bakwa-Amoni.

UJefta wenza isith embiso kuJehova , wathi: Uma uyakunikela impela abantwana bakwa-Amoni esandleni sami,

UJefta wayesedlulela kubantwana bakwa -Amoni ukulwa nabo ; uJehova wabanikela esandleni sakhe.

Wababulala kusukela e -Aroweri kuze kufike eMiniti , imizi engamashumi amabili, nase-Abela Keramimi ngokuceka okukhulu kakhulu . Kanjalo abantwana bakwa-Amoni banqotshwa phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli. Indodakazi kaJefta

Wathi kuye : Baba, uvulile umlomo wakho kuJehova ; yenza kimi njengokuphumileyo emlonyeni wakho, lokhu uJehova ekuphindisele ezitheni zakho, abantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Kwathi emva kwesikhashana abantwana bakwa-Amoni balwa no-Israyeli.

Bathi abantwana bakwa-Amoni belwa no-Israyeli, amalunga akwaGileyadi aya amlanda uJefta ezweni laseThobi.

Athi kuJefta: Woza ube ngumholi wethu, silwe nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

Amalunga akwaGileyadi athi kuJefta: Sibuyele kuwe manje ngalokhu ukuba uhambe nathi, ulwe nabantwana bakwa -Amoni, ube yinhloko phezu kwabo bonke abakhe kwaGileyadi.

Amadoda akwa -Efrayimi abuthana , aya ngasenyakatho ; athi kuJefta : Uwelelani ukulwa nabantwana bakwa-Amoni, ungasibizanga ukuba sihambe nawe, na? Siyakushisa ngomlilo indlu yakho phezu kwakho.

UJefta wathi kubo: Mina nabantu bami sasilwa kakhulu nabantwana bakwa- Amoni; nganibiza, aningisindisanga esandleni sabo.

Nxa sengibonile ukuthi aningisindisanga, ngabeka ukuphila kwami esandleni sami , ngadlulela kubantwana bakwa -Amoni, uJehova wabanikela esandleni sami; ngalokho nikhuphukeleni kimi namuhla ukulwa nami na?

Kepha kwathi oSanibalati , noThobiya, nabase-Arabiya, nabakwa-Amoni, nabase-Ashidodi sebezwa ukuthi ukulungiswa kwezingange zaseJerusalema kuyaqhubeka, nokuthi izimfa seziqale ukuvalwa, bathukuthela kakhulu,

nabantwana bakwaShefathiya, nabantwana bakwaHathili , nabantwana bakwaPhokereti Hasebayimi, nabantwana bakwa-Amoni.

U-Israyeli wamnqoba ngosiko lwenkemba , wadla izwe lakhe , kusukela e- Arinoni kuze kufike eJaboki nakubo abantwana bakwa-Amoni, ngokuba umkhawulo wabantwana bakwa-Amoni wawunamandla.

Izwi likaJehova elafika kuZefaniya indodana kaKushi kaGedaliya ka - Amariya kaHezekiya ezinsukwini zikaJosiya indodana ka -Amoni, inkosi yakwaJuda.

Ngiyizwile inhlamba yakwaMowab i nezithuko zabantwana bakwa -Amoni abathuke ngazo abantu bami, bazikhulisela imikhawulo yabo.

Ngalokho, kuphila kwami , usho uJehova Sebawoti , uNkulunkulu ka - Israyeli, uthi: Impela uMowabi uyakuba njengeSodoma , nabantwana bakwa- Amoni njengeGomora, izwe lezimbabazane nelemigodi kasawoti nencithakalo yaphakade; insali yabantu bami iyakubaphanga , nabaseleyo be sizwe sami bayakudla ifa labo.
