1 Yekosafaati yali mugagga nnyo era nga wa kitiibwa kinene nnyo, ate nga mukoddomi wa Akabu. 2 Bwe waayitawo emyaka, n’aserengeta okugenda okulaba ku Akabu e Samaliya. Akabu n’amuteekerateekera ekijjulo eky’amaanyi n’amuttira endiga nnyingi n’ente nnyingi, ye n’abantu be yagenda nabo, era n’amusendasenda okulumba Lamosugireyaadi. 3 Akabu kabaka wa Isirayiri n’abuuza Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda nti, “Onoogenda nange okulumba Lamosugireyaadi?” Yekosafaati n’addamu nti, “Ky’oli kye ndi, era n’abantu bo be bantu bange, tujja kukwegattako mu lutalo.” 4 Naye Yekosafaati n’alabula kabaka wa Isirayiri nti, “Sooka weebuuze ku Mukama.”
5 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri n’akuŋŋaanya bannabbi bonna awamu; baali abasajja ebikumi bina, n’ababuuza nti, “Tugende tulumbe Lamosugireyaadi nantiki tulekeyo?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tugende, kubanga Mukama anaakigabula mu mukono gwa kabaka.” 6 Naye Yekosafaati n’abuuza nti, “Tewaliwo wano nnabbi wa Mukama gwe tuyinza okwebuuzaako?”
7 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri n’addamu Yekosafaati nti, “Waliyo omusajja omulala gwe tuyinza okwebuuzaako ku Mukama, ye Mikaaya mutabani wa Imula, naye namukyawa kubanga tandagulako birungi, wabula ebibi ebyereere.” Yekosafaati n’ayogera nti, “Kabaka teyandiyogedde bw’atyo.” 8 Kabaka wa Isirayiri n’alyoka alagira omu ku bakungu be nti, “Kima Mikaaya mutabani wa Imula ku bwangu.”
9 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri ne Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda ne batuula ku ntebe zaabwe ez’obwakabaka mu gguuliro ku mulyango gwa wankaaki w’e Samaliya, nga bambadde ebyambalo byabwe, nga ne bannabbi bonna balagulira mu maaso gaabwe. 10 Zeddekiya mutabani wa Kenaana yali yeeweesereza amayembe ag’ekyuma, n’ayogera nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Abasuuli balitomerwa na gano okutuusa lwe balimalibwawo.’ ”
11 Era ne bannabbi abalala bonna baalagulanga kye kimu nti, “Yambuka olumbe Lamosugireyaadi onoowangula kubanga Mukama anaakiwaayo mu mukono gwa kabaka.”
12 Awo omubaka eyali agenze okuyita Mikaaya, n’amugamba nti, “Laba, ebigambo ebya bannabbi bali abalala byogera kyekimu, kale naawe ba bumu nabo.”
13 Naye Mikaaya n’ayogera nti, “Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu Katonda ky’anaŋŋamba ekyo kye nnaayogera.”
14 Awo bwe yatuuka ewa kabaka, kabaka n’amubuuza nti, “Mikaaya tulumbe Lamosugireyaadi, oba tulekeyo?” N’amuddamu nti, “Mugende mukirumbe, munaakiwangula, kubanga banaaweebwayo mu mukono gwo.”
15 Naye kabaka n’amugamba nti, “Nnaakulayizanga emirundi emeka, obutannimbanga wabula okuntegeezanga amazima mu linnya lya Mukama?”
16 Awo Mikaaya n’addamu nti, “Nalaba Isirayiri yenna, nga basaasaanye ku nsozi ng’endiga ezitalina musumba, Mukama n’ayogera nti, ‘Abantu bano tebalina abakulembera, buli omu addeyo ewaabwe mirembe.’ ”
17 Kabaka wa Isirayiri n’agamba Yekosafaati nti, “Sakugambye nti talina kirungi ky’andagulako, okuggyako ebibi?”
18 Mikaaya n’ayongerako na bino nti, “Noolwekyo muwulire ekigambo kya Mukama: Nalaba Mukama ng’atudde ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka n’eggye lyonna ery’omu ggulu nga liyimiridde okumwetooloola ku mukono gwe ogwa kkono. 19 Awo Mukama n’abuuza nti, ‘Ani anasendasenda Akabu kabaka wa Isirayiri okulumba Lamosugireyaadi n’oluvannyuma afiire eyo?’
“Omu ku bo n’ateesa kino, n’omulala kiri. 20 Ku nkomerero, omwoyo ogumu ne gusembera, ne guyimirira mu maaso ga Mukama ne gwogera nti, ‘Nze nzija kumusendasenda.’
“Mukama n’agubuuza nti, ‘Ekyo onookikola otya?’
21 “Ne guddamu nti, ‘Nzija kugenda, mbeere omwoyo omulimba mu kamwa ka buli nnabbi we.’
“Mukama n’agugamba nti, ‘Ggwe onoosobola okumusendasenda, era genda okole bw’otyo.’
22 “Kale nno Mukama atadde omwoyo ogw’obulimba mu kamwa ka bannabbi bo, era Mukama akwogeddeko kabi keereere.”
23 Awo Zeddekiya mutabani wa Kenaana n’asembera okumpi ne Mikaaya we yali n’amukuba oluyi mu maaso, n’amubuuza nti, “Omwoyo wa Mukama yampiseeko wa okwogera naawe?”
24 Mikaaya n’amuddamu nti, “Laba, ekyo olikimanya ku lunaku lw’oligenda okwekweka mu kisenge eky’omunda.”
25 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri n’alagira nti, “Mukwate Mikaaya mumuzzeeyo ewa Amoni ew’omukulu w’ekibuga n’ewa Yowaasi omulangira, 26 mwogere nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera kabaka nti, Omuntu ono mumuteeke mu kkomera, temumuwa kintu kyonna wabula omugaati omutono n’amazzi amatono, okutuusa lwe ndikomawo mirembe.’ ”
27 Awo Mikaaya n’alangirira nti, “Bw’olikomawo mirembe, Mukama nga tayogeredde mu nze,” ate n’ayongerako na kino nti, “Mmwe mwenna, mwekuume ebigambo byange.”
Akabu Afiira e Lamosugireyaadi
28 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri ne Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda ne bambuka e Lamosugireyaadi. 29 Kabaka wa Isirayiri n’agamba Yekosafaati nti, “Nze nzija kugenda mu lutalo nga nneefudde ng’omuntu omulala, naye ggwe yambala ebyambalo byo.” Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri ne yeefuula ng’omuntu omulala, ne bagenda mu lutalo.
30 Naye kabaka w’e Busuuli yali alagidde abaduumizi ab’amagaali ge nti, “Temulwanagananga na muntu yenna, oba wa kitiibwa oba si wa kitiibwa, okuggyako kabaka wa Isirayiri.” 31 Awo abaduumizi ab’amagaali bwe balaba Yekosafaati, ne boogera nti, “Oyo ye kabaka wa Isirayiri.” Ne bakyuka ne bamulumba, naye Yekosafaati n’ayogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, Mukama n’amubeera, era Katonda n’abaziyiza, n’okubaggyawo n’abaggyawo. 32 Abaduumizi ab’amagaali bwe baakizuula nti si ye kabaka wa Isirayiri, ne balekeraawo okumugoba.
33 Naye omu ku basajja n’amala ganaanuula omutego gwe, n’alasa kabaka wa Isirayiri mu kifo ekimu ebyambalo bye eby’olutalo we byegattira. Kabaka n’agamba omugoba w’eggaali lye nti, “Kyusa onzigye mu lutalo kubanga nfumitiddwa.” 34 Olutalo ne lukanya olunaku lwonna, kyokka kabaka wa Isirayiri ne yeewaliriza okusigala mu gaali lye ng’atunuulidde Abasuuli okutuusa akawungeezi, era enjuba bwe yali ng’egwa n’afa.
