21 Manase abya n’emyaka 12 omughulu abya mwami. Mwatabala oko myaka 55 iniane e Yerusalema. Mama wiwe abya iniakahulawa mo Hefziba.
2 Manase mwakola ebituwene omo meso wa Yehova, mwakwama emibere mibi y’ebihanda ebyo Yehova ahigha bilue omo kihugho ekyo aha abandu biwe, Abaisraeli.
3 Mwatasyahimba emyanya y’endata eyo baba wiwe Hezekia ahimbula, kandi mwahimbira Baali y’ebiherero n’erikokotya omuti mubuyirire,* ngoko Ahabu omwami we Israeli akola. Mwakukamira ebindu byosi ebiri elubula, n’erikolerabyo.
4 Kandi mwahimba omo nyumba ya Yehova mw’ebiherero, enyumba eyaleka Yehova iniabugha ati: “Erina ryaghe rikendisyabya e Yerusalema.”
5 Kandi mwahimbira ebindu byosi ebiri e lubula by’ebiherero omo bibugha bibiri by’enyumba ya Yehova.
6 Kandi mwahisya n’omughala wiwe y’omo muliro. Mwakola obukumu, obulaghuli, kandi amahiraho abakumu n’abakalaghula. Mwakola emyatsi minene eyituwene omo meso wa Yehova busana n’erimuhitania.
7 Mwakokotya esanamu eyibatsire, ni bugha ambu, omuti mubuyirire,* amahirayo omo hekalu, ehekalu eyaleka Yehova iniabwira Daudi na mughala wiwe Solomona ati: “Erina ryaghe rikendisyabya oko nyumba eno ne Yerusalema kera na kera, omuyi ogho nabirisombola omo miyi y’ebihanda byosi bye Israeli.
8 Sinendisyasyaleka Abaisraeli ibaghanga-ghanga omo biharo ebiri hali n’ekihugho ekyo naha abotata-kulu wabo. Ngendisyakola nitya bamabikwama ndeke-ndeke ebyosi ebyo nababwira, bamabikwama emighambo yosi eyo nabwira omughombe waghe Musa niti ababwire ati bakwameyo.”
9 Aliwe mubatowa, kandi Manase mwaheryabo, amaleka ibakola ebibi ebikalire kulenga ebibi by’ebihanda ebyo Yehova atoghotaya omughulu Abaisraeli bimaya ekihugho.
10 Yehova mwataleka eribugha erilabira abaghombe biwe abaminyereri. Abya akabugha ati:
11 “Manase omwami we Yuda abirikola emyatsi yosi eyi eyikita esyonye,* abirikola emyatsi minene eyituwene kulenga emyatsi mibi yosi eyo Abaamori bakola iye isyalyabya. Kandi abirileka abandu be Yuda ibakola erilolo busana n’esyosanamu siwe esikita esyonye.
12 Busana n’ekyo, Yehova, oMungu we Israeli, akabugha ati: ‘Ngendileta e Yerusalema ne Yuda y’obuhanya obukalire. Abosi abakendibya bakowa oko mwatsi oyo bakendibya bakasagha.*
13 Ngendihira oko muyi we Yerusalema kw’ekamba y’eripimamo eyo bakolesaya oko muyi we Samaria, kandi ngendikolesya ekamba y’eripima ekindu nga kinalungukere* eyo bakolesaya oko kihanda kya Ahabu. Ngendyerya omuyi we Yerusalema ngoko omundu akeraya ekibakuli* ekyo mundu akatulika abyeryakyo.
14 Ngendilekerania abandu abakendisighalira oko mwandu waghe, neryo ngendibahira omo byala by’esyonzighu syabo. Esyonzighu syabo syosi sikendinyeghabo, n’eriheka ebindu byabo.
15 Kundi babirikola ebituwene omo meso waghe, kandi bakabya ibanemunihitania eritsuka ekiro abotata-kulu wabo balua e Misri erihika na munabwire.’”
16 Kandi Manase muta omusasi munene w’abandu abatawite ekosa, erihika oko kika amusula omo Yerusalema, erilua oko mupaka ono erihika oko ghundi, erilusyako erilolo eryo aleka abandu be Yuda ibakola omw’ikola ebituwene omo meso wa Yehova.
17 Eyindi myatsi eyilebirye Manase, ebyosi ebyo akola, n’amalolo agho akola, ebyosi ebyo binahandikire omo kitabu ky’emighulu y’abami be Yuda.
18 Neryo Manase mwahola ngoko abotata-kulu wiwe bahola. Mubamuta omo ririma eriri ahali enyumba yiwe, omo ririma rya Uza. Neryo mughala wiwe Amoni mwabya mwami omo mwanya wiwe.
19 Amoni abya n’emyaka 22 omughulu abya mwami. Mwatabala oko miaka ibiri iniane e Yerusalema. Mama wiwe abya iniakahulawa mo Meshulemeti; abya mwali wa Haruzi we Yotba.
20 Mwabya akakola ebituwene omo meso wa Yehova, ngoko baba wiwe Manase akola.
21 Mwataleka erikola emyatsi mibi yosi eyo baba wiwe abya akakola, kandi abya akaramya n’erikukamira esyosanamu esikita esyonye esyo baba wiwe abya akaramya.
22 Neryo mwaleka Yehova oMungu wabotata-kulu wiwe, kandi mwatakola ebyo Yehova abya akamusaba erikola.
23 Kiro kighuma, abaghombe ba Amoni mubamuhotera, bamamwitira omo nyumba yiwe.
24 Aliwe abandu b’omo kihugho mubita abosi abahotera omwami Amoni, bamayira mughala wiwe Yosia mo mwami omo mwanya wiwe.
25 Eyindi myatsi eyilebirye Amoni, ebyo akola, ebyosi ebyo binahandikire omo kitabu ky’emighulu y’abami be Yuda.
26 Mubamuta omo yisinda yiwe eyiri omo ririma rya Uza. Neryo mughala wiwe Yosia mwabya mwami omo mwanya wiwe.
