UManase ukumkani wamaYuda
1UManase ubeminyaka ilishumi elinamibini ezelwe, ukuba ngukumkani kwakhe; waba neminyaka emashumi mahlanu anamihlanu engukumkani eYerusalem; igama lonina belinguHefetsibha.
2Wenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, ngokwamasikizi eentlanga, awazigqogqayo uYehova phambi koonyana bakaSirayeli. 3Wabuya wazakha izigànga, awayezidilizile uHezekiya uyise, wammisela uBhahali• izibingelelo, wenza ooAshera,• njengoko wenzayo uAhabhi ukumkani wakwaSirayeli, waqubuda kumkhosi wonke wezulu, wawukhonza. 4Wákha izibingelelo endlwini kaYehova, leyo wathi uYehova ngayo, Ndiya kulibeka eYerusalem igama lam. 5Wawakhela izibingelelo wonke umkhosi wezulu ezintendelezweni zombini zendlu kaYehova. 6Wamcandisa unyana wakhe emlilweni, waba litola, wahlaba izihlabo, wamisa abaneshologu noosiyazi, waphikela ukwenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, ukuba amqumbise. 7Wawumisa umfanekiso oqingqiweyo ka-Ashera abewenzile, endlwini leyo wayethe ngayo uYehova kuDavide nakuSolomon unyana wakhe, Kuyo le ndlu naseYerusalem, endiyinyulileyo ezizweni zonke zakwaSirayeli, ndiya kulibeka khona igama lam ngonaphakadde; 8ndingaphindi ndilushukumise unyawo lwamaSirayeli emhlabeni endawunika ooyise; kodwa makabe aya kugcina ukwenza njengako konke endiwawisele umthetho ngako, nanjengokomyalelo wonke awawawiselayo umkhonzi wam uMoses. 9Akaphulaphula ke; wawalukuhla uManase, ukuba enze okubi, ngaphezu kweentlanga awazitshabalalisayo uYehova phambi koonyana bakaSirayeli.
10Wathetha uYehova ngabakhonzi bakhe abaprofeti, esithi, 11Ngenxa enokuba uManase, ukumkani wakwaYuda, ewenzile loo masikizi, wenza okubi okungaphezulu kwako konke awakwenzayo ama-Amori, abengaphambi kwakhe, wawonisa namaYuda ngezigodo zakhe ezizizithixo: 12ngako oko utsho uYehova, uThixo kaSirayeli, ukuthi, Yabona, ndiyizisela iYerusalem neYuda ububi, eziya kuthi nzwi iindlebe zombini zabo bonke ababuvayo. 13Ndololula phezu kweYerusalem ulutya lokulinganisa lwakwaSamari, nelothe yokulinganisa yendlu ka-Ahabhi, ndiyisule iYerusalem njengosula isitya, asisule, asisibeke. 14Ndowalahla amasalela elifa lam, ndibanikele esandleni seentshaba zabo, ukuba baphangwe bathinjwe zizo zonke iintshaba zabo; 15ngenxa enokuba benzé okubi emehlweni am, bandiqumbisa, kususela kwimini abaphuma ngayo ooyise eYiputa unanamhla. 16Kananjalo igazi elimsulwa úliphalaze lalininzi kunene uManase, yada yazala iYerusalem, kwathabathela kwelinye icala kwesa kwelinye; sisodwa sona isono sakhe awawonisayo ngaso amaYuda, ngokwenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova.
17Ezinye izinto zikaManase, nako konke awakwenzayo, nesono sakhe awonayo ngazo, asibhalwanga na encwadini yemicimbi yemihla yookumkani bakwaYuda? 18Walala uManase kooyise, wangcwatyelwa emyezweni wendlu yakhe, emyezweni kaUza. UAmon unyana wakhe waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe.
UAmon ukumkani
19UAmon ubeminyaka imashumi mabini anamibini ezelwe, ukuba ngukumkani kwakhe; waba neminyaka emibini engukumkani eYerusalem. Igama lonina belinguMeshulemete, intombi kaHarutse waseYotebha.
20Wenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, njengoko wenza ngako uManase uyise. 21Wahamba ngendlela yonke awahamba ngayo uyise; wazikhonza izigodo ezizizithixo awazikhonzayo uyise, waqubuda kuzo. 22Wamshiya uYehova, uThixo wooyise, akahamba ngendlela keYehova. 23Bamceba abakhonzi baka-Amon, bambulala ukumkani lowo endlwini yakhe. 24Abantu belizwe elo bababulala bonke abo babecebe ukumkani uAmon. Bathi abantu belizwe elo bamenza ukumkani uYosiya, unyana wakhe, esikhundleni sakhe.
25Ezinye izinto zika-Amon awazenzayo, azibhalwanga na encwadini yemicimbi yemihla yookumkani bakwaYuda? 26Wangcwatyelwa engcwabeni lakhe, emyezweni kaUza. UYosiya, unyana wakhe, waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe.
