Abami beza n’abami babi

NK’UKO Yehova yari yarabivuze, Salomo amaze kureka ugusenga kutanduye, Isirayeli yacitsemo ibice. Umuhungu we Rehobowamu, ari na we wamusimbuye, yarakagatizaga. Ibyo byatumye imiryango icumi ya Isirayeli yigomeka ishyiraho ubwami bw’amajyaruguru bwa Isirayeli. Imiryango ibiri ni yo yakomeje kuba indahemuka ku mwami wari wicaye ku ntebe y’ubwami ya Dawidi i Yerusalemu, iba ubwami bw’amajyepfo bw’u Buyuda.

Ubwo bwami bwombi bwagize amateka yaranzwe n’imvururu, ahanini zaterwaga n’abami batagiraga ukwizera kandi ntibumvire. Ubwami bwa Isirayeli ni bwo bwahuye n’ibibazo byinshi kurusha ubwami bw’u Buyuda kubera ko abami babwo bashyigikiye ibyo gusenga ibigirwamana kuva bugitangira. Nubwo abahanuzi nka Eliya na Elisa bakoze ibitangaza bikomeye, bombi bakaba barazuye abapfuye, Isirayeli yakomeje kugendera mu nzira mbi. Amaherezo Imana yemeye ko ubwami bw’amajyaruguru burimburwa n’Abashuri.

U Buyuda bwakomeje kubaho imyaka irenga ijana ho gato nyuma y’aho Isirayeli irimburiwe, ariko na bwo bwagezweho n’igihano cy’Imana. Abami bake gusa b’i Buyuda ni bo bitabiriye imiburo y’abahanuzi b’Imana kandi bagerageza gutuma ishyanga rigarukira Yehova. Urugero, Umwami Yosiya yatangiye kweza u Buyuda akuraho ugusenga kw’ikinyoma kandi asana urusengero rwa Yehova. Igihe babonaga kopi y’umwimerere y’Amategeko y’Imana yatanzwe binyuze kuri Mose, Yosiya yumvise bimukoze ku mutima cyane, maze yongera imbaraga mu bikorwa byo gusubizaho ugusenga k’ukuri.

Ikibabaje ariko, abasimbuye Yosiya ntibakurikije urwo rugero rwe rwiza. Bityo Yehova yemeye ko Abanyababuloni bigarurira u Buyuda, barimbura Yerusalemu n’urusengero rwayo. Abarokotse bajyanywe mu bunyage i Babuloni. Imana yari yarahanuye ko abajyanywe mu bunyage bari kumarayo imyaka 70. U Buyuda bwakomeje kuba amatongo muri icyo gihe cyose, kugeza igihe iryo shyanga ryemerewe kugaruka muri gakondo yaryo, nk’uko byari byarasezeranyijwe.

Icyakora, nta mwami wakomokaga kuri Dawidi wari kongera gutegeka, kugeza igihe Umucunguzi wari warasezeranyijwe, ni ukuvuga Mesiya wari warahanuwe, yari gutangira gutegeka. Abenshi mu bami bicaye ku ntebe y’ubwami ya Dawidi i Yerusalemu bagaragaje ko abantu badatunganye badashoboye gutegeka. Mesiya wenyine ni we ubishoboye by’ukuri. Ni yo mpamvu Yehova yabwiye umwami wa nyuma muri abo bakomokaga kuri Dawidi ati ‘iyambure ikamba. Rizakomeza kubera aho ridafite nyiraryo, kugeza igihe urifitiye uburenganzira azazira, nkarimuha.’—Ezekiyeli 21:26, 27.
