< 2 Ruodhi 1 >

1 Bangʼ tho Ahab, jo-Moab nongʼanyo ne Israel.
Awo Akabu ng’amaze okufa, ab’omu nsi ya Mowaabu ne bajeemera Abayisirayiri.
2 E kindeno Ahazia nosegore piny koa ewi ode mar gorofa man Samaria mi ohinyore, ne ooro joote kowacho niya, “Dhiyo mondo ipenj Baal-Zebub ma nyasach Ekron, mondo iwinji ane ni bende abiro chango e hinyruoknani.”
Akaziya ng’ali mu Samaliya y’asimatuka n’ayita mu ddirisa ly’ekisenge kye ekya waggulu, n’agwa, n’alwala. Awo n’atuma ababaka eri Baaluzebubi bakatonda b’e Ekuloni, okubeebuuzaako obanga obulwadde bwe buliwona.
3 To malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Elija ja-Tishbi niya, “Dhiyo mondo irom gi joote mag ruodh Samaria mondo ipenjgi ni, ‘Nyasaye onge e Israel ka koso mamiyo upenjo Baal-Zebub ma nyasach jo-Ekron wach?’
Malayika wa Mukama n’ajja eri Eriya Omutisubi n’amugamba nti, “Golokoka, ogende osisinkane ababaka ba kabaka w’e Samaliya, obabuuze nti, ‘Teri Katonda mu Isirayiri, kyemuvudde mugenda mwebuuza eri Baaluzebubi bakatonda b’e Ekuloni?’
4 Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ok inichungi e kitanda mar midekre minindeni nyaka itho!’” Bangʼ mano Elija nodhi.
Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, toliwona bulwadde bwo, naye ogenda kufa.” Eriya bwe yamala okwogera ebyo n’agenda.
5 Kane joote odwogo ir ruoth nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo udwogo?”
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, ababaka kabaka be yatuma ne baddayo eri kabaka, n’ababuuza nti, “Kiki ekibakomezaawo amangu?”
6 Negidwoke niya, “Ngʼat moro noromo kodwa mowachonwa ni, ‘Doguru ir ruoth mane oorou mondo unyise ni Jehova Nyasaye owacho kama: “Nyasaye onge e Israel ka koso mamiyo upenjo Baal-Zebub ma nyasach jo-Ekron wach? Kuom mano ok inichungi e kitanda minindeni nyaka itho.”’”
Ne bamuddamu nti, “Waliwo omusajja eyatusisinkanye mu kkubo n’atugamba nti, ‘Muddeyo eri kabaka mumugambe nti olw’okugenda eri Baaluzebubi bakatonda b’e Ekuloni okulagulwa, n’otogenda kwebuuza ku Katonda wa Isirayiri, togenda kuva ku kitanda ekyo era togenda kuwona bulwadde obwo wabula ogenda kufa.’”
7 Ruoth nopenjogi niya, “En ngʼat machal nade mane obiro moromo kodu kendo onyisou wechegi?”
N’ababuuza nti, “Omusajja oyo gwe musisinkanye abadde afaanana atya?”
8 Negidwoke niya, “Norwako law ma rayier, kendo notweyo okanda mar pien e nungone.” Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Mano ne en Elija ja-Tishbi.”
Ne bamuddamu nti, “Abadde ayambadde ekyambalo kya bwoya, nga yeesibye n’olukoba lwa bwoya.” Kabaka n’ayogera nti, “Oyo yandiba Eriya Omutisubi.”
9 Eka ne ooro jatend jolweny kaachiel gi jolweny piero abich ir Elija. Jatelono nodhi ir Elija moyude kobet piny ewi got kendo nowachone niya, “Ngʼat Nyasaye, ruoth owacho ni mondo ilor piny!”
Awo kabaka n’atuma omukulu eyali akulira ekibinja ky’abasajja amakumi ataano n’abasajja be eri Eriya. Bwe yatuuka awaali Eriya, yamusanga atudde ku ntikko eya kasozi, n’amugamba nti, “Musajja wa Katonda, kabaka akwetaaga.”
10 Elija nodwoko jalwenyno niya, “Ka an ngʼat Nyasaye, to mach mondo oa e polo kendo otieki kaachiel gi jolweny magi piero abich.” Eka mach noa e polo mowangʼo jatend jolweny kod joge duto.
Eriya n’addamu omukulu w’ekibinja nti, “Obanga ndi musajja wa Katonda, omuliro guve mu ggulu gukwokye ggwe n’ekibinja kyo!” Awo omuliro ne guva mu ggulu ne gumwokya ye n’ekibinja kye.
11 Eka ruoth nooro jatend jolweny machielo gi jolweny piero abich ir Elija. Jatelono nowachone Elija niya, ngʼat Nyasaye, ruoth wacho ni yie mondo ilor piyo.
Kabaka bwe yawulira ebyo n’atuma omukulu omulala n’ekibinja kye eky’amakumi ataano eri Eriya. Omukulu oyo eyatumibwa n’agamba Eriya nti, “Ggwe omusajja wa Katonda, kabaka akuyita mangu.”p
12 Elija nodwoke niya, ka an ngʼat Nyasaye, to mach mondo oa e polo kendo otieki kaachiel gi jolweny magi piero abich! Eka mach noa e polo mowangʼo jatend jolwenyno kod joge piero abich duto.
Eriya n’amuddamu nti, “Obanga ndi musajja wa Katonda, kale omuliro guve mu ggulu gukwokye ggwe n’ekibinja kyo.” Awo omuliro ne guva mu ggulu ne gumwokya ye n’ekibinja kye.
13 Kendo ruoth nooro jatend jolweny mar adek kaachiel gi jolweny mage piero abich. Ngʼat mar adekno nodhi mogoyo chonge piny e nyim Elija kokwaye niya, “Ngʼat Nyasaye, yie ibedie gi ngʼwono ne ngimana to gi ngima mar ji piero abich ma an-gogi, an jatichni!
Naye kabaka teyakoma ku abo, n’amutumira omukulu owookusatu ow’ekibinja ekirala eky’amakumi ataano, n’agenda eri Eriya. Bwe yatuuka awaali Eriya n’afukamira mu maaso ge, n’amwegayirira ng’agamba nti, “Omusajja wa Katonda nkwegayiridde, onsasire, nneme okufa.
14 Neye kaka mach osewuok e polo motieko jotend jolweny ariyo motelona kod ji mane gin-go duto. To koro sani yie ibedie gi ngʼwono ne ngimana!”
Laba, omuliro gwavudde mu ggulu ne gwokya abakulu bombi n’ebibinja byabwe, naye kaakano osaasire obulamu bwange.”
15 Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Elija niya, “Lor idhi kode, kik iluore.” Omiyo Elija nolor modhi kode ir ruoth.
Awo malayika wa Mukama n’agamba Eriya nti, “Serengeta naye, so tomutya.” Awo Eriya n’asituka n’aserengeta n’omubaka wa kabaka eri kabaka.
16 Nowachone ruoth niya, “Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama: Nyasaye onge e Israel ka koso mamiyo uoro joote mondo upenj Baal-Zebub ma nyasach Ekron wach? Nikech isetimo ma ok inichungi e kitanda mar midekre minindeno, nyaka itho!”
Eriya n’agamba kabaka nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Nsonga ki eyakutwala eri Baaluzebubi bakatonda b’e Ekuloni okulagulwa, mu kifo ky’okulaga eri Katonda wa Isirayiri ne gw’oba weebuuzako?’ Ky’oliva olema okuva ku kitanda ekyo kye weebaseeko, era ojja kufa.”
17 Omiyo notho mana kaka wach Jehova Nyasaye mane Elija owacho. Nikech Ahazia ne onge wuowi, Joram nobedo ruoth kare e higa mar ariyo mar loch Jehoram wuod Jehoshafat ruodh Juda.
N’afa, ng’ekigambo kya Mukama kye yatuma Eriya bwe kyali. Olwokubanga Akaziya teyalina mwana wabulenzi, Yekolaamu n’amusikira okuba kabaka, mu mwaka ogwokubiri ogwa Yekolaamu mutabani wa Yekosafaati eyali kabaka wa Yuda.
18 To weche moko mag loch Ahazia kod gik mane otimo, donge ondikgi e kitepe mochanie nonro mag ruodhi Israel?
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Akaziya ne bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
