24 Gyihova vale Yizilayɛma anwo ɛya bieko+ wɔ mekɛ mɔɔ awie maanle Devidi* dwazole bɛ nwo zo hanle kɛ: “Kɔdia+ Yizilayɛma nee Dwudama” la.+
2 Ɔti belemgbunli ne zele ɛlɔnema kpanyinli Dwowabe+ mɔɔ ɛnee wɔ ɔ nwo ɛkɛ ne la kɛ: “Kɔ Yizilayɛ mbusua kɔsɔɔti anu, ɔvi Dan kɔdwu Biyɛ-hyiba+ na tia bɛ, amaa meanwu menli ne dodo.”
3 Noko Dwowabe zele belemgbunli ne kɛ: “Gyihova wɔ Nyamenle ne ɛmaa menli ne ɛyɛ mɔnwo 100, na me menle belemgbunli ɛnwu ye ɔ nye zo, na duzu ati a me menle belemgbunli kulo kɛ ɔyɛ debie zɛhae a?”
4 Noko belemgbunli ne andie Dwowabe nee sogya mgbanyima ne mɔ. Ɔti Dwowabe nee sogya mgbanyima ne mɔ vile belemgbunli ne anyunlu na bɛhɔle kɛ bɛkadia Yizilayɛma.+
5 Bɛpɛle Dwɔdan ne na bɛhɔyɛle azokoɛleɛ wɔ Alowɛ+ wɔ sua ne mɔɔ wɔ bɔnza ne anu* la fema zo,* bɛdoale zo bɛhɔle Gaadema azɛlɛ zo nee Gyeezɛ.+
6 Akee bɛhɔle Geleade+ nee Tatim-hɔhyae azɛlɛ zo na bɛdoale zo bɛhɔle Dan-gyeeyan nee Saedɛn afoa nu.+
7 Bɛhɔle Taya+ aranemgbole ne nee Havaema+ yɛɛ Keenama azuamgbole ne mɔ kɔsɔɔti azo na bɛhɔguale ye wɔ Biyɛ-hyiba+ mɔɔ wɔ Dwuda Nɛgɛbe+ nehane la.
8 Ɛhye ati bɛhɔvale azɛlɛ ne amuala azo na bɛziale bɛrale Gyɛlusalɛm wɔ siane ngɔnla kenle 20 anzi.
9 Akee Dwowabe vale menli mɔɔ bɛdianle bɛ la dodo ne rɛlɛle belemgbunli ne. Ɛnee Yizilayɛma mɔɔ kola fa konle dadeɛ ko la dodo le 800,000 yɛɛ Dwudama le 500,000.+
10 Noko mɔɔ Devidi dianle menli ne wiele la, ye adwenle buale* ye fɔlɛ.+ Akee Devidi zele Gyihova kɛ: “Meyɛ ɛtane+ kpole kɛ meyɛ ɛhye a. Ɔti Gyihova mesɛlɛ wɔ, fa wɔ sonvolɛ ɛtane kyɛ ye,+ ɔluakɛ meli ngoaseasɛm kpole.”+
11 Mɔɔ Devidi dwazole nwonlomɔ ne la, Gyihova zele ngapezonli Gaade+ mɔɔ le Devidi ɛnyelɛzodeɛnwunlɛnli ne la kɛ:
12 “Kɔha kile Devidi kɛ, ‘Edwɛkɛ mɔɔ Gyihova ɛha la ɛne: “Memaa wɔ ninyɛne nsa. Ye nuhua ko mɔɔ menva menyɛ wɔ la.”’”+
13 Yemɔti Gaade rale Devidi ɛkɛ na ɔzele ye kɛ: “Ɛhɔne ɛrɛla wɔ azɛlɛ ne azo ɛvolɛ nsuu ɔ?+ Anzɛɛ ɔwɔ kɛ ɛnriandi wɔ kpɔvolɛma siane nsa wɔ mekɛ mɔɔ bɛdoa wɔ ndinlizo la ɔ?+ Anzɛɛ ewulenzane ɛrɛla wɔ azɛlɛ ne azo kenle nsa ɔ?+ Ɔti suzu nwolɛ kpalɛ na maa menwu kɛzi ɔwɔ kɛ mebua Ahenle mɔɔ zoanle me la.”
14 Yemɔti Devidi zele Gaade kɛ: “Ɔle ngyegyelɛ kpole ɔmaa me. Maa yɛdɔ Gyihova asa anu,+ ɔluakɛ ye anwunvɔnezelɛ le kpole;+ noko mmamaa metɔ sonla sa nu.”+
15 Akee Gyihova maanle ewulenzane+ dɔle Yizilayɛma avinli ɔvi nwonlomɔ kɔkpula mekɛ mɔɔ ɔhilele la, ɔti menli 70,000 wule+ ɔvi Dan kɔdwu Biyɛ-hyiba.+
16 Mɔɔ anwumabɔvolɛ ne dendenle ɔ sa wɔ Gyɛlusalɛm azo kɛ ɔsɛkye ye la, Gyihova nlunle ɔ nwo* wɔ munzule ne anwo,+ na ɔzele anwumabɔvolɛ ne mɔɔ ɛlɛba arazɛkye menli ne la kɛ: “Yeyɛ boɛ! Akee to ɛ sa aze.” Ɛnee Gyihova anwumabɔvolɛ ne ɛbikye Gyibɛsenli+ Alɔna+ ma ɛwosolɛ ɛleka ne.
17 Mɔɔ Devidi nwunle anwumabɔvolɛ ne mɔɔ ɛlɛku menli ne la, ɔzele Gyihova kɛ: “Medame a meyɛ ɛtane a yɛɛ medame a mevo a; na mboane ɛhye mɔ,+ duzu a bɛyɛ a? Mesɛlɛ wɔ, maa ɛ sa ɛrɛla medame nee me papa sua nu amra anwo zo.”+
18 Yemɔti kenle zɔhane, Gaade rale Devidi ɛkɛ na ɔzele ye kɛ: “Kɔzi afɔlemokyea maa Gyihova wɔ Gyibɛsenli Alɔna ma ɛwosolɛ ɛleka ne.”+
19 Ɔti Devidi diele Gaade edwɛkɛ ne na ɔhɔle kɛ mɔɔ Gyihova hanle la.
20 Mɔɔ Alɔna dole ɔ nye na ɔnwunle kɛ belemgbunli ne nee ye azonvolɛ ɛlɛba ɔ nwo ɛkɛ la, ɛkɛ ne ala Alɔna vindele hɔbɔle ɔ ti aze maanle belemgbunli ne na ɔbutule ɔ nyunlu aze.
21 Alɔna bizale kɛ: “Duzu ati a me menle belemgbunli ɛra ye sonvolɛ ɛke ɛ?” Devidi buale kɛ: “Mera kɛ mebadɔ wɔ ma ɛwosolɛ ɛleka ne amaa meazi afɔlemokyea wɔ zolɛ meamaa Gyihova na ewule ne mɔɔ ɛha menli ne la agyakyi.”+
22 Noko Alɔna zele Devidi kɛ: “Maa me menle belemgbunli ɛva na ɔbɔ afɔle mɔɔ ɔnea a ɔle kpalɛ la.* Nlankɛ mɔɔ ɛfa wɔabɔ ɛyelalɛ afɔle nee ma ɛwosolɛ baka nee nlankɛ ne mɔ anwo ninyɛne mɔɔ ɛbava wɔayɛ ɛyɛne la ɛne.
23 O belemgbunli, mefa* ɛhye mɔ amuala meamaa wɔ.” Akee Alɔna zele belemgbunli ne kɛ: “Gyihova wɔ Nyamenle ne ɛlo wɔ.”
24 Noko belemgbunli ne zele Alɔna kɛ: “Kyɛkyɛ, ɔwɔ kɛ metɔ mefi wɔ ɛkɛ na metua ye kakɛ. Menrɛbɔ ɛyelalɛ afɔle menrɛmaa Gyihova me Nyamenle ne mɔɔ mendua nwolɛ ɛhwee a.” Yemɔti Devidi dɔle ma ɛwosolɛ ɛleka ne nee nlankɛ ne mɔ dwɛtɛ fufule hyikɛle* 50.+
25 Na Devidi zile afɔlemokyea+ wɔ ɛkɛ ne maanle Gyihova na ɔbɔle ɛyelalɛ afɔle nee anzodwolɛ afɔle wɔ zolɛ. Akee Gyihova diele nzɛlɛlɛ mɔɔ bɛyɛle wɔ azɛlɛ ne anwo la,+ na ewule ne mɔɔ dɔle Yizilayɛma avinli la gyakyile.
