22. Ukumkani uAsa wawahlabela umkhosi amaYuda onke, akwabakho namnye ukhululekileyo. Bawasusa amatye eRama, kwanemithi yayo abesakha ngayo uBhahesha ukumkani; uAsa wákha ke ngayo iGebha yakwaBhenjamin, neMizpa.
23. Zonke ezinye izinto zika-Asa, nobugorha bakhe bonke, nako konke awakwenzayo, nemizi awayakhayo, ayibhalwanga na encwadini yemicimbi yemihla yookumkani bakwaYuda? Uthe ke akuba yindoda enkulu, wabulawa ziinyawo.
24. UAsa walala kooyise, wangcwatyelwa kooyise, emzini kaDavide uyise. UYehoshafati, unyana wakhe, waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe.
25. UNadabhi, unyana kaYarobheham, waba ngukumkani kwaSirayeli ngomnyaka wesibini ka-Asa, ukumkani wakwaYuda; waba neminyaka emibini engukumkani kwaSirayeli.
26. Wenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, wahamba ngendlela kayise, nangesono sakhe awawonisa ngaso amaSirayeli.
27. Waza uBhahesha, unyana ka-Ahiya, wendlu kaIsakare, wamceba. UBhahesha wamxabela eGibheton yakumaFilisti, beyingqinga iGibheton uNadabhi namaSirayeli onke.
28. UBhahesha wambulala ke ngomnyaka wesithathu ka-Asa ukumkani wakwaYuda, waba ngukumkani esikhundleni sakhe.
29. Kwathi, xa angukumkani, wayibulala yonke indlu kaYarobheham; akasalisa namnye uphefumlayo kwaYarobheham, wada wamtshabalalisa, ngokwelizwi likaYehova, abelithethile ngomkhonzi wakhe uAhiya waseShilo:
30. ngenxa yezono zikaYarobheham awona ngazo, awawonisa ngazo amaSirayeli; ngokumqumbisa kwakhe awamqumbisa ngako uYehova uThixo kaSirayeli.
31. Ezinye izinto zikaNadabhi, nako konke awakwenzayo, azibhalwanga na encwadini yemicimbi yemihla yookumkani bakwaSirayeli?
32. Yaye iyimfazwe phakathi koAsa noBhahesha, ukumkani wakwaSirayeli, yonke imihla yabo.
33. Ngomnyaka wesithathu ka-Asa ukumkani wakwaYuda, uBhahesha, unyana ka-Ahiya, waba ngukumkani kumaSirayeli onke eTirtsa; iminyaka yaba ngamashumi amabini anaminé.
34. Wenza okubi emehlweni kaYehova, wahamba ngendlela kaYarobheham, nangesono sakhe awawonisa ngaso amaSirayeli.
