Mukanda Muibidi wa Kulondolola

34 Yoshiya+ uvua ne bidimu muanda mukulu pakaluaye mukalenge, ne wakakokesha bidimu 31 mu Yelushalema.+ 2 Wakenza malu mimpe ku mêsu kua Yehowa ne wakendela mu njila ya nkambua wende Davidi, kavua musesuke muye ku dia balume anyi ku dia bakaji to.

3 Mu tshidimu tshia muanda mukulu tshia bukokeshi buende, patshivuaye muana, wakatuadija kukeba Nzambi wa nkambua wende Davidi;+ ne mu tshidimu tshia 12, wakatuadija kukezula Yuda ne Yelushalema,+ umbusha miaba mitumbuke+ ne mitshi ya tshijila,* mpingu misonga,+ ne mpingu ya tshiamu.* 4 Bakupula kabidi bioshelu bia Babâla mu mêsu muende, ne wakakosa bioshelu bia musenga wa manananshi bivua pa mutu pabi. Wakakosolola kabidi mitshi ya tshijila,* mpingu misonga, ne mpingu ya tshiamu* bitupa bitupa, kubizazaye kubishiya musenga, kuwumiaminaye pa mutu pa nkita ya bantu bavua babilambula milambu.+ 5 Pashishe wakuosha mifuba ya bakuidi pa bioshelu biabu.+ Nunku wakakezula Yuda ne Yelushalema.

6 Pashishe mu bimenga bia Manashe, bia Efelayima,+ bia Simeona, too ne ku Nafatale, miaba ivua mibanyunguluke ivuabu babutule, 7 wakupula bioshelu, kuzazaye mitshi ya tshijila* ne mpingu misonga,+ kubishiyaye musenga; ne wakakosa bioshelu bionso bia musenga wa manananshi mu buloba buonso bua Isalele,+ pashishe wakapingana ku Yelushalema.

8 Mu tshidimu tshia 18 tshia bukokeshi buende, pakavuaye mukezule buloba ne ntempelo,* wakatuma Shafana+ muana wa Asalaya, Maaseya mfumu wa tshimenga, ne Yoa muana wa Yoahaza mufundi bua kulongolola nzubu wa Yehowa Nzambi wende.+ 9 Bakalua kudi muakuidi munene Hilekiya, kumupeshabu makuta avuabu balue nawu ku nzubu wa Nzambi, avua bena Lewi bavua benza mudimu bu balami ba ku biibi basangishe kudi bantu ba mu Manashe, mu Efelayima, mu tshitupa tshia Isalele tshionso tshivua tshishale,+ kabidi ne a kudi bantu ba mu Yuda, mu Benyamina, ne bantu ba mu Yelushalema. 10 Pashishe bakaapesha bantu bavuabu bateke bua kutangila mudimu uvua wenzeka mu nzubu wa Yehowa. Bantu bavua benza mudimu mu nzubu wa Yehowa bakaatula pabu bua kuakaja nzubu ne kumulongolola. 11 Bakaapesha bansenda ne bibaki bua kusumba mabue masonga ne mabaya bua bipanda ne bua kuibaka nzubu ivua bakalenge ba Yuda balekele inyanguka, kuyibaka ne mikamba.+

12 Bantu abu bakenza mudimu ne lulamatu luonso.+ Ku mutu kuabu bavua bateke Yahata ne Obadaya, bena Lewi ba mu bena Melali,+ ne Zekâya ne Meshulama, ba mu bena Kohata,+ bua bikale batangidi. Bena Lewi, bonso bavua bimbi ba misambu bapiluke,+ 13 bavua ku mutu kua bena mudimu betu ba tshianana aba* ne bavua batangidi ba bantu bonso bavua benza mudimu mu midimu ya mishindu yonso; ne bena Lewi bakuabu bavua bafundi, batangidi, ne balami ba ku biibi.+

14 Pavuabu benda bangata makuta avua bantu balue nawu ku nzubu wa Yehowa,+ muakuidi Hilekiya wakapeta mukanda wa Mikenji ya Yehowa+ ivuabu bafile ku butuangaji bua* Mose.+ 15 Nunku Hilekiya wakambila mufundi Shafana ne: “Ndi mupete mukanda wa Mikenji mu nzubu wa Yehowa.” Ke Hilekiya kupesha Shafana mukanda au. 16 Pashishe Shafana wakaya ne mukanda kudi mukalenge, kumuambilaye ne: “Bena mudimu bebe badi benza malu onso avuabu babalombe bua kuenza. 17 Mbapongolole makuta avuabu basangane mu nzubu wa Yehowa, ne mbaapeshe bantu badibu bateke bua kutangila mudimu ne badi benza mudimu.” 18 Mufundi Shafana wakambila kabidi mukalenge ne: “Kudi mukanda udi muakuidi Hilekiya mumpeshe.”+ Pashishe Shafana wakatuadija kuwubala kumpala kua mukalenge.+

19 Diakamue pakumvua mukalenge mêyi a mu Mikenji, wakadipanda bilamba.+ 20 Pashishe mukalenge wakatuma dîyi kudi Hilekiya, Ahikama+ muana wa Shafana, Abidona muana wa Mika, mufundi Shafana, ne Asaya muena mudimu wa mukalenge wamba ne: 21 “Ndayi, nuebeje Yehowa malu buanyi meme ne bua bantu badi bashale mu Isalele ne mu Yuda bua mêyi a mu mukanda udibu bapete eu; bualu tshiji tshia Yehowa tshiatutemena ntshikole, bualu bankambua betu kabavua batumikile dîyi dia Yehowa bua kuenza malu onso adibu bafunde mu mukanda eu to.”+

22 Nunku Hilekiya pamue ne bantu bonso bavua mukalenge mutume bakaya kudi muprofete mukaji Huleda.+ Yeye uvua mukaji wa Shaluma muana wa Tikewa muana wa Hâhasa, mulami wa muaba uvuabu batekela bilamba, ne uvua musombele mu Tshitupa tshibidi tshia Yelushalema; nunku bakayukila nende kuntu aku.+ 23 Wakabambila ne: “Yehowa Nzambi wa Isalele udi wamba ne: ‘Ambilayi muntu udi munutume kundi ne: 24 “Yehowa udi wamba ne: ‘Nentume dikenga muaba eu ne kudi bantu badi basombelamu,+ milawu yonso idi mifunda mu mukanda+ uvuabu babale kumpala kua mukalenge wa Yuda. 25 Bu mudibu bandekele+ ne bikale bafuimishila nzambi mikuabu milambu bua kumfiikisha munda+ ne midimu yonso ya bianza biabu, tshiji tshianyi tshikole netshitshikile muaba eu ne katshiakujima to.’”+ 26 Kadi bua mukalenge wa Yuda uvua munutume bua kuebeja Yehowa malu, nudi ne bua kumuambila nunku: “Yehowa Nzambi wa Isalele udi wamba ne: ‘Bua mêyi audi mumvue,+ 27 bu muvua muoyo webe munyingalale* ne bu muuvua mudipuekeshe kumpala kua Nzambi pauvua mumvue mêyi ende adi atangila muaba eu ne bantu badimu, ne bu muuvua mudipuekeshe kumpala kuanyi, mudipande bilamba, ne mudile kumpala kuanyi, meme panyi ndi mukumvue,+ ke mudi Yehowa wamba. 28 Ke bualu kayi nenkusangishe kudi bankambua bebe,* neulale mu lukita luebe mu ditalala, ne mêsu ebe kaakumona dikenga dionso dingatuma muaba eu ne kudi bantu badimu to.’”’”+

Pashishe bakatuadila mukalenge diandamuna. 29 Nunku mukalenge wakatuma dîyi, yeye kubikidisha bakulu bonso ba mu Yuda ne ba mu Yelushalema.+ 30 Pashishe mukalenge wakabanda ku nzubu wa Yehowa ne bantu balume bonso ba mu Yuda, bantu ba mu Yelushalema, bakuidi, bena Lewi, mmumue ne: tshisamba tshijima, muntu munene ne muntu mukese. Wakabala mêyi onso a mu mukanda wa tshipungidi uvuabu bapete mu nzubu wa Yehowa mu matshi abu.+ 31 Mukalenge wakimana muaba wende ne wakenza tshipungidi*+ kumpala kua Yehowa tshia ne: nealonde Yehowa ne nealame mêyi ende, mavuluija ende ne mêyi ne mikandu biende ne muoyo wende wonso ne anyima* wende yonso+ pa kukumbaja mêyi a tshipungidi avua mafunda mu mukanda eu.+ 32 Bualu bukuabu, wakenza bua bantu bonso bavua mu Yelushalema ne mu Benyamina batshitabe. Nunku bantu ba mu Yelushalema bakenza malu bilondeshile tshipungidi tshia Nzambi, Nzambi wa bankambua babu.+ 33 Pashishe Yoshiya wakumbusha bintu bibi menemene bionso* mu maloba onso avua a bena Isalele,+ ne wakenza bua bantu bonso ba mu Isalele benzele Yehowa Nzambi wabu mudimu. Tshikondo tshionso tshivuaye ne muoyo,* kabakasesuka, balekela kulonda Yehowa Nzambi wa bankambua babu to.
