2 Yookumkani 10 FHB Father's Heart Bible™

10 ¹UAhabhi wayenoonyana abangamashumi asixhenxe kwaSamari. UYehu wathumela iincwadi kwaSamari, kumagosa omzi, namadoda amakhulu, nabagcini boonyana baka-Ahabhi, esithi: ²“Xa ifika kuni le ncwadi, ekubeni oonyana benkosi yenu benani nje, nineenqwelo zokulwa, namahashe, nomzi onqatyisiweyo, nezikhali. ³Nyulani oyena mntwana ulungileyo nolungele kunene koonyana benkosi yenu, nimbeke etroneni kayise, nilwele indlu yenkosi yenu.”

⁴Boyika kakhulu, boyika kunene, bathi: “Khangela, ookumkani ababini ababanga nako ukuma phambi kwakhe. Thina singathini na ukuma?” ⁵Umphathi wendlu yokumkani, nomphathi womzi, namadoda amakhulu, nabagcini bathumela ilizwi kuYehu, besithi: “Singabakhonzi bakho; sokwenza konke othi usixelele kona. Asiyi kubeka mntu abe ngukumkani; yenza okulungileyo emehlweni akho.”

⁶UYehu wabhala kubo incwadi yesibini, wathi: “Ukuba ninam, nolithobela ilizwi lam, thabathani iintloko zoonyana benkosi yenu, nize kum eYizereli ngeli xesha ngomso.” Ke oonyana bokumkani abangamashumi asixhenxe babenabanumzana bomzi, ababebakhulisa.

⁷Yathi yakufika incwadi, babambambamba oonyana bokumkani, babaxhela bonke abangamashumi asixhenxe, bazibeka iintloko zabo ezingobozini, bathumela kuYehu eYizereli. ⁸Umthunywa wafika wamxelela, wathi: “Baziletile iintloko zoonyana bokumkani.” Wathi yena: “Zifumbeni zibe ziimfumba ezimbini emnyango wesango, kude kuse.”

⁹Kwathi kusasa, waphuma, wema phambi kwabantu bonke, wathi: “Nina ningabamsulwa. Mna ndiyicebile inkosi yam, ndayibulala; kodwa aba bonke uthini na ababulele? ¹⁰Yazini ukuba akuyi kuwa emhlabeni nalinye ilizwi likaBawo wethu awalithethayo ngokuchasene nendlu ka-Ahabhi. UBawo wethu ukwenzile oko wakuthethayo ngomkhonzi wakhe uEliya.”

¹¹Ngoko uYehu wababulala bonke abaseleyo bendlu ka-Ahabhi eYizereli, nabanumzana bakhe, nabahlobo bakhe abasondelayo, nababingeleli bakhe, akashiya namnye usindileyo kuye.

¹²Waza wanduluka, waya ngaseSamari. Esendleleni, waseBhete-ekede yaBalusi, ¹³UYehu wahlangana nemizalwane ka-Ahaziya, ukumkani wakwaYuda, wababuza, wathi: “Ningoobani na nina?” Baphendula bathi: “Singabazalwana baka-Ahaziya, size kubulisa iintsapho zokumkani nezenkosikazi enkulu.”

¹⁴Wathi: “Babambeni behleli!” Bababamba behleli, baza bababulala emgongxweni waseBhete-ekede—amadoda angamashumi amane anamabini, akwasala namnye kuwo.

¹⁵Wemka khona, wahlangana noYonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, esiza kuye. UYehu wambulisa, wathi: “Ilungile na intliziyo yakho kum, njengoko eyam ilungileyo kuwe?” UYonadabhi wathi: “Ilungile.” Wathi uYehu: “Ukuba kunjalo, ndinike isandla sakho.” Wamnika, uYehu wamrhola enqwelweni.

¹⁶Wathi: “Hamba nam, ubone ikhwele lam ngenxa kaBawo wethu.” Wamkhwelisa enqwelweni yakhe. ¹⁷Akufika eSamari, uYehu wababulala bonke abasindileyo baka-Ahabhi apho, wabatshabalalisa, njengoko uBawo wethu wamxelela uEliya.

UYehu Uyawutshabalalisa Unqulo lukaBhahali

¹⁸UYehu wabahlanganisa bonke abantu, wathi: “UAhabhi wakhonza uBhahali kancinane; uYehu uya kumkhonza kakhulu. ¹⁹Bizani kum bonke abaprofeti bakaBhahali, nabanquli bakhe bonke, nababingeleli bakhe bonke—makungabikho namnye ongekhoyo; ndinombingelelo omkhulu kaBhahali, othi ke ongabikhoyo akayi kuphila.” Kodwa uYehu wenza ngobuqhophololo, ukuze abatshabalalise abanquli bakaBhahali.

²⁰UYehu wathi: “Memani intlanganiso engcwele kaBhahali.” Bayimema ke.

²¹UYehu wathumela ilizwi kuwo onke amaSirayeli; beza bonke abanquli bakaBhahali, akwasala namnye ongezanga. Bangena endlwini kaBhahali, bayizalisa ukusuka kwelinye icala kuse kwelinye. ²²UYehu wathi kumgcini wengubo: “Khuphela iingubo bonke abanquli bakaBhahali.” Wazikhuphela.

²³UYehu noYehonadabhi, unyana kaRekabhi, bangena endlwini kaBhahali. Wathi kubanquli bakaBhahali: “Phengululani kakuhle—niqinisekise ukuba akukho bakhonzi bakaBawo wethu apha phakathi kwenu, kubekho abanquli bakaBhahali bodwa.”

²⁴Bangena ukuze babingelele imibingelelo namadini anyukayo. UYehu wayemise amadoda angamashumi asibhozo ngaphandle, wabaxelela, wathi: “Othe wavumela ukuba kusinde namnye kula madoda endiwabeka ezandleni zenu, kuya kuba bubomi bakhe ngenxa yobomi bakhe.”

²⁵Kwathi, lakugqitywa idini elinyukayo, uYehu wathi kubalindi nakumagosa: “Ngenani, nibabulale—makungaphumi namnye.” Bababulala ngekrele; abalindi namagosa babaphosela ngaphandle, baza bangena egumbini elingaphakathi lendlu kaBhahali. ²⁶Bazikhuphela ngaphandle izimiso ezingcwele zendlu kaBhahali, bazitshisa. ²⁷Basigungxula isimiso esingcwele sikaBhahali, bayidiliza indlu kaBhahali, bayenza indlu yangasese kude kube namhla.

²⁸Ngoko uYehu walutshabalalisa unqulo lukaBhahali kumaSirayeli. ²⁹Kodwa uYehu akaguqukanga ezonweni zikaYarobheham, unyana kaNebhati, awakhokelela kuzo amaSirayeli—amathole egolide aseBheteli naseDan.

³⁰UBawo wethu wathi kuYehu: “Ngenxa yokuba wenze kakuhle, wenza okulungileyo emehlweni am, wenza konke endandikuthanda kwindlu ka-Ahabhi, inzala yakho iya kuhlala etroneni yakwaSirayeli kude kube kwisizukulwana sesine.”

³¹Kodwa uYehu akawulandelanga ngenyameko, ngentliziyo yakhe yonke, umyalelo kaBawo wethu, uThixo kaSirayeli. Akaguqukanga ezonweni zikaYarobheham, owakhokelela amaSirayeli esonweni.

³²Ngaloo mihla uBawo wethu waqala ukuwanciphisa amaSirayeli. UHazayeli wawabulala kuwo wonke umda wakwaSirayeli. ³³Ngasempumalanga kweYordan—lonke elaseGiliyadi, ilizwe lakwaGadi, nelakwaRubhen, nelakwaManase—bethabathela eArohere engasemlanjeni oyiArnon, bada besa eGiliyadi naseBhashan.

³⁴Ezinye izinto zikaYehu, nako konke awakwenzayo, nobugorha bakhe bonke, azibhalwanga na encwadini yemicimbi yemihla yookumkani bakwaSirayeli? ³⁵UYehu walala kooyise, wangcwatywa kwaSamari; waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe unyana wakhe uYehowahazi. ³⁶UYehu waba ngukumkani kumaSirayeli kwaSamari iminyaka engamashumi amabini anesibhozo.
