Faraho Neeko ku yaamureebire, yaamwitira Megido.30Abaheereza be baiha omutumbi gwe Megido, baaguta omu kigaari, baagutwara Yerusaalemu, baamuziika omu kituuro kye. Abantu b'omuri egyo nsi baatwara Yehoahazi mwene Yosia, baamushukaho amajuta, baamwemeka omu mwanya gwa ishe.31Yehoahazi akaba aine emyaka makumi abiri n'eshatu, obu yaatandika kutegyeka, yaategyekyera ameezi ashatu omuri Yerusaalemu. Nyina akaba naayetwa Hamutaali muhara wa Yeremia owa Libuna.32Yaakora ebirikwangwa MUKAMA, nk'ebi baishenkuru baakozire byona.33Bwanyima Faraho Neeko yaamubohera Ribula omu nsi ya Hamasi, ngu arekye kuguma Yerusaalemu aha ngoma, n'abantu b'omuri egyo nsi yaabacwera omutoijo gw'etalanta z'efeeza igana, n'etalanta emwe y'ezaabu.34Faraho Neeko yaagira Eliakimu mwene Yosia omugabe omu mwanya gwa ishe, yaahindura eiziina rye, yaamweta Yehoyakimu; kandi yaihayo Yehoahazi; Yehoahazi ogwo ku yaahikire Misri, yaagwayo.35Yehoyakimu yaaha Faraho ezo feeza n'ezaabu; kwonka yaacwera ensi omushoro, ngu bareete empiiha nk'ekiragiro kya Faraho oku kyabaire kiri. Yaashoroza efeeza n'ezaabu aha bantu b'omuri egyo nsi, buri muntu nk'oku yaabaire acwereirwe, kubiha Faraho Neeko.36Yehoyakimu akaba aine emyaka makumi abiri n'etaano, obu yaatandika kutegyeka, yaategyekyera emyaka ikumi na gumwe Yerusaalemu. Nyina akaba naayetwa Zebida muhara wa Pedaaya owa Ruma.37Yaakora ebirikwangwa MUKAMA nk'ebi baishenkuru baakozire byona.Bible Society of Uganda
