1 Mafumu 20
1 Tsono Beni-Hadadi mfumu ya ku Aramu inasonkhanitsa magulu ake onse a ankhondo. Iye pamodzi ndi mafumu 32, akavalo awo ndi magaleta awo, anapita kukawuzungulira mzinda wa Samariya ndi kuwuthira nkhondo.
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Peni-Hatati ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia ʻa ʻene kautau kotoa pē: pea naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae tuʻi ʻe toko tolungofulu ma toko ua, mo e fanga hoosi, mo e ngaahi saliote: pea naʻa ne ʻalu hake ʻo ne kāpui ʻa Samēlia ʻaki ʻae tau, ʻo ne fai ʻae tau ki ai.
2 Iye anatuma amithenga ake mu mzindamo kwa Ahabu mfumu ya Israeli, kukanena kuti,
Pea naʻa ne kouna atu ʻae kau talafekau kia ʻEhapi ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ki loto kolo, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Peni-Hatati,
3 “Beni-Hadadi akuti, ‘Siliva wako ndi golide wako ndi wanga, ndipo akazi ako okongola ndi ana ako ndi anganso.’”
ʻOku ʻaʻaku ʻa hoʻo siliva mo hoʻo koula; pea ʻoku ʻaʻaku foki ʻa hoʻo ngaahi uaifi pea mo hoʻo fānau, ʻio, ʻakinautolu ʻoku matalelei hake ʻi ai.”
4 Mfumu ya Israeli inayankha kuti, “Monga mmene mwanenera, mbuye wanga mfumu, ine pamodzi ndi zonse zomwe ndili nazo ndi zanu.”
Pea naʻe tali ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “ʻE hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo lea, ʻoku ʻaʻau au, pea mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ou maʻu.”
5 Amithenga aja anabwereranso kwa Ahabu ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Beni-Hadadi akuti, ‘Ine ndinakulamula kuti undipatse siliva wako ndi golide wako, akazi ako ndi ana ako.
Pea naʻe toe haʻu ʻae kau talafekau, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Peni-Hatati, Neongo ʻa ʻeku fekau atu kiate koe, ʻo pehē, Te ke tuku mai kiate au hoʻo siliva, mo hoʻo koula, mo ho ngaahi uaifi, pea mo hoʻo fānau;
6 Koma mawa nthawi ngati yomwe ino ndidzatuma atumiki anga kudzafufuza mʼnyumba yako yaufumu ndi nyumba za akuluakulu ako. Iwo adzatenga chilichonse chimene umachidalira ndi kupita nacho.’”
Neongo ia, te u fekau atu ʻa ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki kiate koe ʻapongipongi ʻi he feituʻu laʻā ni nai, pea te nau hakule ho fale, pea mo e ngaahi fale ʻo hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki; pea ʻe pehē, ʻilonga ha meʻa ʻoku mata lelei ki ho mata ʻoʻou, te nau toʻo ia ʻi honau nima ʻo ʻave.”
7 Pamenepo mfumu ya Israeli inayitanitsa akuluakulu a mʼdzikomo niwawuza kuti, “Taonani momwe munthuyu akufunira kutibweretsera mavuto! Atatumiza mawu oti ndimupatse akazi anga ndi ana anga, siliva wanga ndi golide wanga, ine sindinamukanize.”
Pea naʻe toki ʻomi ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ke mou sio ki heʻene kumi ʻe he tangata ni ha fekovikoviʻi: he naʻa ne fekau mai kiate au ke ʻatu ʻa hoku ngaahi uaifi, mo ʻeku ngaahi fānau, mo ʻeku siliva, pea mo ʻeku koula; pea naʻe ʻikai te u taʻofi ha meʻa meiate ia.”
8 Akuluakulu onse ndi anthu onse anayankha kuti, “Musamumvere kapena kuvomereza zofuna zake.”
Pea naʻe pehē kiate ia ʻe he kau mātuʻa pea mo e kakai kotoa pē, “ʻOua naʻa ke fanongo kiate ia, pea ʻoua naʻa loto ki ai.”
9 Tsono Ahabu anayankha amithenga a Beni-Hadadi kuti, “Kamuwuzeni mbuye wanga mfumu kuti, ‘Mtumiki wanu adzachita zonse zimene munazifuna nthawi yoyamba ija, koma izi mwazifunazi sindingazikwanitse.’” Iwo anachoka nakapereka yankho kwa Beni-Hadadi.
Ko ia naʻa ne pehē ai ki he kau tala fekau meia Peni-Hatati, “Mou tala ki hoku ʻeiki ko e tuʻi, Ko e meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ke tomuʻa fekau ai ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki te u fai ia: ka ko e meʻa ko eni ʻe ʻikai siʻi te u mafai.” Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau talafekau, ʻonau toe ʻomi ʻae lea kiate ia.
10 Pamenepo Beni-Hadadi anatumizanso uthenga wina kwa Ahabu kuti, “Milungu indilange koopsa, ngati mu Samariya mudzakhale fumbi loti nʼkudzaza dzanja la aliyense wa anthu anga.”
Pea naʻe fekau atu kiate ia ʻe Peni-Hatati, ʻo ne pehē, “Ke fai pehē ʻe he ngaahi ʻotua kiate au, ʻo lahi hake foki, ʻo kapau ʻe lahi ʻae efu ʻo Samēlia ke taki taha maʻu ʻe he kakai kotoa pē ʻoku muimui kiate au ha faluku ʻe taha.”
11 Mfumu ya Israeli inayankha kuti, “Kamuwuzeni kuti, ‘Mwamuna mnzako nʼpachulu, nʼkulinga utakwerapo.’”
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, “Tala kiate ia, ʻOua naʻa polepole ia ʻaia ʻoku nonoʻo mai hono mahafutau, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku ne vete ia.”
12 Beni-Hadadi anamva uthenga umenewu pamene iye ankamwa ndi mafumu anzake mʼmatenti awo, ndipo analamula anthu ake kuti, “Konzekerani kukathira nkhondo.” Choncho anakonzekera kukathira nkhondo mzindawo.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻa Peni-Hatati ki he lea ko ia, lolotonga ʻa ʻene inu, ʻaia mo ʻene ngaahi tuʻi ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki, naʻa ne pehē ai ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Mou teuteu.” Pea naʻa nau teuteu ke tauʻi ʻae kolo.
13 Ndipo taonani, mneneri wina anabwera kwa Ahabu mfumu ya Israeli nadzalengeza kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Kodi ukuchiona chigulu chachikulu cha ankhondochi? Taona, ndikuchipereka chimenechi lero mʼdzanja lako, ndipo pamenepo udzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.’”
Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ha palōfita kia ʻEhapi ko e tuʻi ʻIsileli, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Kuo ke mamata ki he fuʻu kakai tokolahi ni? Vakai, te u tukuange kinautolu ki ho nima he ʻaho ni; pea te ke ʻilo ko au ko Sihova.’”
14 Ahabu anafunsa kuti, “Koma ndani adzachita zimenezi?” Mneneri anayankha kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Adzachita zimenezi ndi asilikali a nduna za mʼzigawo.’” Ndipo iye anafunsa kuti, “Kodi ndani adzayambe nkhondoyi?” Mneneriyo anayankha kuti, “Ndinu.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEhapi, “Ia hai?” Pea naʻe pehē mai ʻe ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻi he nima ʻoe kau talavou ʻoe houʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi vahefonua.” Pea naʻa ne toki pehē, “Pea ko hai ʻe tataki ʻae tau?” Pea naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ko koe.”
15 Choncho Ahabu anawerenga asilikali achinyamata a nduna za mʼzigawo ndipo onse analipo 232. Ndipo anawerenganso ankhondo a ku Israeli ndipo onse analipo 7,000.
Pea naʻa ne toki lau hake ʻae kau talavou ʻoe houʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi vahefonua, pea naʻa nau toko uangeau ma tolungofulu ma ua: pea hili ʻene lau kinautolu, naʻa ne lau ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e toko fitu afe.
16 Iwo ananyamuka nthawi yamasana pamene Beni-Hadadi ndi mafumu 32 othandizana naye ankamwa mpaka kuledzera mʼmatenti awo.
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu feʻunga mo e hoʻatāmālie. Ka naʻe lolotonga ia ʻae inu ke konā ʻa Peni-Hatati ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki, ko ia mo e ngaahi tuʻi, ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻe toko tolungofulu ma ua ʻaia naʻe tokoni kiate ia.
17 Asilikali achinyamata a nduna za mʼzigawo ndiwo amene anayamba kupita ku nkhondo. Nthawi imeneyi Beni-Hadadi nʼkuti atatumiza anthu oti akazonde, amene anadzafotokoza kuti, “Anthu ankhondo akubwera kuchokera ku Samariya.”
Pea naʻe muʻomuʻa atu ʻae kau talavou ʻoe houʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi vahefonua; pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae fekau meia Peni-Hatati, pea naʻa nau fakahā kiate ia, ʻo pehē, ʻOku haʻu ha kau tangata mei Samēlia.
18 Iye anati, “Kaya akubwera mwamtendere kapena mwankhondo, muwagwire amoyo.”
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Kapau kuo nau hū mai kituʻa ʻi he melino, puke moʻui pe kinautolu; pea kapau kuo nau ʻomi kituʻa ke fai ʻae tau, puke moʻui pe kinautolu.”
19 Choncho asilikali achinyamata a nduna za mʼzigawo anatuluka mu mzinda, gulu lankhondo lili pambuyo pawo.
Ko ia naʻe hū mai mei he kolo ʻae kau talavou ni ʻoe houʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi vahe fonua, pea mo e kautau naʻe muimui kiate kinautolu.
20 Ndipo aliyense wa iwo anapha munthu wake. Ataona izi, Aaramu anathawa Aisraeli ali pambuyo pawo kuwapirikitsa. Koma Beni-Hadadi mfumu ya ku Aaramu anathawa atakwera pa kavalo pamodzi ndi ankhondo ena okweranso pa akavalo.
Pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi taki taha haʻane tangata: pea naʻe feholaki ʻae kakai Silia; pea naʻe tulia kinautolu ʻe he kakai ʻIsileli: pea naʻe hao moʻui ʻa Peni-Hatati ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia ʻi ha hoosi fakataha mo e kau heka hoosi.
21 Mfumu ya Israeli inapita chitsogolo ndi kugwira akavalo ndi magaleta ndipo Aaramu ambiri anaphedwa.
Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ne teʻia ʻae fanga hoosi mo e ngaahi saliote, pea naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻae kakai Silia ʻi he tāmate lahi ʻaupito.
22 Zitachitika izi, mneneri wina anabwera kwa mfumu ya Israeli ndipo anati, “Mulimbike ndipo muganize bwino zoti mudzachite, chifukwa chaka chikudzachi mfumu ya Aramu idzakuthiraninso nkhondo.”
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae palōfita ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke ʻalu, mo fakamālohi koe, pea vakai, ʻo tokanga ki he meʻa ʻoku ke fai: he ka toe hoko mai ʻae faʻahitaʻu ʻe toe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻa Silia ke tauʻi koe.”
23 Nthawi imeneyi, akuluakulu a mfumu ya Aramu anamulangiza kuti, “Milungu ya anthu a ku Israeli ndi milungu ya mʼmapiri. Nʼchifukwa chake anali ndi mphamvu zotipambana ife. Koma ngati tidzamenyana nawo ku chigwa, ndithudi ife tidzakhala ndi mphamvu kuposa iwo.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻo Silia kiate ia, “Ko honau ngaahi ʻotua, ko e ʻotua ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga; ko ia naʻa nau mālohi hake ai ʻiate kitautolu; kae tuku ke tau tauʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he tokalelei, pea ko e moʻoni te tau mālohi hake ʻiate kinautolu.
24 Inu chitani izi: chotsani mafumu onse pa maudindo awo ndipo mʼmalo mwawo muyikemo atsogoleri a ankhondo.
Pea ke fai ʻae meʻa ni, ʻAve ʻae ngaahi tuʻi, ʻae tangata taki taha mei hono potu, pea fetongiʻaki kinautolu ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki tau:
25 Musonkhanitsenso gulu lankhondo lofanana ndi lomwe linaphedwa lija, akavalo monga omwe anaphedwa aja, ndi magaleta monga omwe anawonongedwa aja, kuti tikamenyane ndi Israeli ku chigwa. Pamenepo, ife tidzapambana iwowo.” Beni-Hadadi anagwirizana nawo ndipo anachita momwemo.
Pea lau mai kiate koe ha kautau, ʻo hangē ko e kautau kuo mole ʻiate koe, ko e hoosi ke tatau mo e hoosi, mo e saliote ke tatau mo e saliote: pea te tau tau mo kinautolu ʻi he potu tokalelei, pea ko e moʻoni te tau mālohi hake ʻiate kinautolu.” Pea naʻa ne tokanga ki heʻenau lea, ʻo ne fai pehē.
26 Chaka chinacho Beni-Hadadi anasonkhanitsa Aaramu, napita ku Afeki kukamenyana ndi Israeli.
Pea ʻi heʻene toe hokosia mai ʻae faʻahitaʻu, naʻe lau hake ʻae kakai Silia ʻe Peni-Hatati, ʻo ne ʻalu hake ki ʻEfeki ke tau mo ʻIsileli.
27 Aisraeli atasonkhananso, napatsidwa zakudya zawo anapita kukakumana nawo. Aisraeli anamanga misasa yawo moyangʼanana ndi Aaramu ndipo ankaoneka ngati timagulu tiwiri ta mbuzi, pomwe Aaramu anali atakuta dera lonselo.
Pea naʻe lau hake ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻe taki taha ʻave ʻene meʻakai, mo nau ʻalu atu ko honau tali: pea naʻe fokotuʻu honau ʻapitanga ʻi honau ʻao ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fānganga kosi siʻi ʻe ua; ka naʻe fonu ʻae fonua kotoa ʻi he kau Silia.
28 Munthu wa Mulungu anabwera, nawuza mfumu ya Israeli kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Popeza Aaramu akuganiza kuti Yehova ndi mulungu wa ku mapiri, osati wa ku zigwa, Ine ndidzapereka chigulu chonsechi kwa iwe, ndipo iwe udzadziwa kuti Ine ndine Yehova.’”
Pea naʻe haʻu ha tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ne lea ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Koeʻuhi kuo pehē ʻe he kakai Silia, Ko e ʻOtua pe ʻoe ngaahi moʻunga ʻa Sihova, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e ʻOtua ia ʻoe ngaahi potu tokalelei, ko ia te u tukuange ai ʻae fuʻu kakai tokolahi ni ki ho nima, pea te mou ʻilo ko Sihova au.’”
29 Kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri anakhala moyangʼanana mʼmisasa yawo, ndipo pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri nkhondo inayambika. Aisraeli anapha Aaramu okwana 100,000 tsiku limodzi lokha.
Pea naʻa nau nofo ʻo fehangaʻaki ko e taha ki he taha ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu. Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho naʻe hoko ʻae tau: pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae kau tangata hāʻele ʻe tokotaha kilu ʻoe kakai Silia ʻi he ʻaho pe taha.
30 Ena onse otsala anathawira ku Afeki, kumene khoma linagwera anthu 27,000. Ndipo Beni-Hadadi anathawira mu mzinda, nakabisala mʼchipinda chamʼkati.
Ka naʻe feholaki ʻae toenga [kakai ]ki ʻEfeki, ki he loto kolo; pea naʻe hinga ʻae ā ʻi ai ʻo taʻomia ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko ua mano mo e toko fitu afe, ʻaia naʻe toe. Pea naʻe hola ʻa Peni-Hatati, ʻo ne hū mai ki he kolo, pea ki he loki ki loto fale.
31 Atumiki ake anamuwuza kuti, “Taonani, ife tamva kuti mafumu a fuko la Israeli ndi achifundo. Tiyeni tipite kwa mfumu ya ku Israeli titavala ziguduli mʼchiwuno mwathu ndi kumanga zingwe mʼmakosi mwathu. Mwina iye sakakuphani.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Vakai eni, kuo mau fanongo ko e ngaahi tuʻi faʻa ʻaloʻofa ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli: ʻoku mau kole kiate koe, tuku ke mau ʻai ʻae tauangaʻa ki homau kongaloto, mo e maea ki homau ʻulu, pea mau ʻalu atu ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli heiʻilo te ne fakamoʻui koe.”
32 Atavala ziguduli mʼchiwuno mwawo ndi kumanga zingwe mʼmakosi mwawo, anapita kwa mfumu ya ku Israeli ndipo anayiwuza kuti, “Mtumiki wanu Beni-Hadadi akunena kuti, ‘Chonde loleni kuti ndikhale moyo.’” Mfumu inayankha kuti, “Kodi iye akanali ndi moyo? Iye ujatu ndi mʼbale wanga.”
Ko ia naʻa nau nonoʻo ʻaki kinautolu ʻae tauangaʻa ʻi honau kongaloto, mo e maea ki honau ʻulu, pea [naʻa nau ]haʻu ki he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Peni-Hatati, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, “Tuku ke u moʻui.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “He ʻoku ne kei moʻui? Ko hoku kāinga ia.”
33 Anthuwo ankaganiza kuti mawuwo anali abwino ndipo anavomereza mawuwa mofulumira. Iwo anati, “Inde, Beni-Hadadi ndi mʼbale wanu!” Mfumu inati, “Pitani kamutengeni.” Beni-Hadadi atatuluka, Ahabu anamukweza mʼgaleta lake.
Pea naʻe tokanga lahi ʻe he kau tangata pe ʻe ai ha meʻa lelei meiate ia, pea naʻa nau puke leva ki ai: pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko ho kāinga ko Peni-Hatati. Pea naʻa ne toki pehē atu, “Mou ʻalu ʻo ʻomi ia.” Pea naʻe toki haʻu ʻa Peni-Hatati kituʻa kiate ia; pea naʻa ne fekau ia ke heka hake ki he saliote.
34 Beni-Hadadi anawuza Ahabu kuti, “Ndidzabweza mizinda imene abambo anga analanda abambo anu. Ndipo mutha kumanga nyumba zanu zamalonda mu Damasiko, monga anachitira abambo anga ku Samariya.” Ahabu anati, “Chifukwa cha mgwirizano umenewu, ine ndidzakumasula.” Choncho anachita naye mgwirizano, ndipo anamulola kuti apite.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe [Peni-Hatati ]kiate ia, “Ko e ngaahi kolo, ʻaia naʻe kapasia ʻe heʻeku tamai mei hoʻo tamai, te u toe ʻatu; pea te ke ngaohi maʻau ʻae ngaahi hala ʻi Tamasikusi ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe ngaohi ʻe heʻeku tamai ʻi Samēlia.” Pea naʻe pehēange ai [ʻe ʻEhapi], “Te u tukuange koe ke ʻalu ʻi he fuakava ni.” Ko ia naʻa ne fai mo ia ha fuakava, mo ne tukuange ia ke ʻalu.
35 Molamulidwa ndi Yehova, mmodzi mwa ana a aneneri anawuza mnzake kuti, “Chonde, menye ndi chida chako,” koma mnzakeyo anakana.
Pea ko e tangata ʻe tokotaha ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau palōfita, naʻe pehē ki hono kaungāʻapi ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke taaʻi au. Pea naʻe ʻikai te ne loto ke taaʻi ia.
36 Choncho mneneriyo anati, “Chifukwa sunamvere Yehova, ukangochoka pano, mkango ukupha.” Ndipo munthuyo atangochoka pamenepo, mkango unamupeza ndi kumupha.
Pea naʻa ne toki pehē kiate ia, “Koeʻuhi kuo ʻikai te ke fai talangofua ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, vakai, ʻoka ke ka ʻalu atu leva meiate au, ʻe tāmateʻi koe ʻe ha laione.” Pea ʻi heʻene mahuʻi atu leva meiate ia, naʻe maʻu ia ʻe ha laione, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia.
37 Mneneriyo anapeza munthu wina ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Chonde, menye.” Choncho munthuyo anamumenya ndi kumuvulaza.
Pea naʻa ne toki ʻilo ʻae tangata kehe ʻe taha ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke taaʻi au.” Pea naʻe taaʻi ia ʻe he tangata, pea naʻa ne lavea, ʻi hono taaʻi.
38 Pamenepo mneneriyo anapita nakayima pa msewu kudikirira mfumu. Iye anadzibisa nakulunga nsalu nkhope yake.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae palōfita, mo ne tatali ʻi he hala ki he tuʻi, pea naʻa ne fakapuli ia ʻaki ʻae efuefu naʻe ʻai ki hono mata.
39 Mmene mfumu inkadutsa pamenepo, mneneriyo anafuwula kwa mfumuyo kuti, “Ine mtumiki wanu ndinalowa pakati pa nkhondo, ndipo munthu wina anabwera kwa ine atatenga mmodzi mwa anthu ogwidwa pa nkhondo, nandiwuza kuti, ‘Sunga munthu uyu. Ngati asowa, ndiye kuti ndidzakupha, kapena udzalipira ndalama 3,000 za siliva.’
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu ange ai ʻae tuʻi naʻa ne ui atu ki he tuʻi: pea naʻa ne pehē, “Naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ki he lotolotonga ʻoe tau; pea vakai, naʻe afe mai ha tangata ʻo ne ʻomi ha tangata kiate au, mo ne pehē, ‘Puke maʻu ʻae tangata ni: kapau ʻe mole ia ʻi ha meʻa, ʻe toki totongi ʻe hoʻo moʻui ʻa ʻene moʻui ʻaʻana, pea ka ʻikai ia te ke totongi ʻaki ha taleniti siliva ʻe taha.’
40 Pamene ine mtumiki wanu ndinali wotanganidwa apa ndi apa, munthuyo anasowa.” Mfumu ya Israeli inati, “Chimenechi ndiye chilango chako. Iwe wadziweruza wekha.”
Pea lolotonga ʻae femouʻekina ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, ʻiloange kuo ne hao.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli kiate ia, “ʻE pehē pe ʻae fakamaauʻi koe; kuo ke fakapapau pe ia ʻe koe.”
41 Pamenepo mneneriyo anachotsa msangamsanga nsalu yomwe anakulunga pa nkhope yake, ndipo mfumu ya Israeli inamuzindikira kuti ndi mmodzi mwa aneneri.
Pea naʻa ne fai fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo ne toʻo ʻae efuefu mei hono mata; pea naʻe toki ʻilo ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ko e tokotaha ia ʻi he kau palōfita.
42 Iye anawuza mfumu kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Chifukwa chakuti mwamasula munthu amene Ine ndinati ndi woyenera kuphedwa, inuyo ndi amene mudzaphedwe mʼmalo mwa iyeyo, anthu anu mʼmalo mwa anthu ake.’”
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, ‘Koeʻuhi kuo ke tukuange mei ho nima ʻae tangata naʻaku tukupau ʻeau ke fakaʻauha ʻaupito, ko ia ʻe totongi ʻaki ʻa hoʻo moʻui ʻa ʻene moʻui ʻaʻana, pea ʻe totongi ʻaki hoʻo kakai ʻa ʻene kakai ʻaʻana.’”
43 Mwachisoni ndi mokwiya, mfumu ya Israeli inapita ku nyumba yake yaufumu ku Samariya.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ki hono fale kuo māfasia mo mamahi, mo ne hoko ki Samēlia.
