< 2 Kings 1 >
1 Then, after the death of Ahab, Moab transgressed against Israel.
Bangʼ tho Ahab, jo-Moab nongʼanyo ne Israel.
2 And Ahaziah fell down through the lattices of his upper room, which he had in Samaria, and he was injured. And he sent messengers, saying to them, “Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as to whether I may be able to survive this infirmity of mine.”
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.”
3 And an Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying: “Rise up, and ascend to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria. And you shall say to them: ‘Is there not a God in Israel, so that you would go to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron?
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?’
4 For this reason, thus says the Lord: From the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’” And Elijah went away.
Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ok inichungi e kitanda mar midekre minindeni nyaka itho!’” Bangʼ mano Elija nodhi.
5 And the messengers returned to Ahaziah. And he said to them, “Why have you returned?”
Kane joote odwogo ir ruoth nopenjogi niya, “Angʼo momiyo udwogo?”
6 But they responded to him: “A man met us, and he said to us: ‘Go, and return to the king who sent you. And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that you are sending to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’”
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.”’”
7 And he said to them: “What was the appearance and dress of that man, who met you and who spoke these words?”
Ruoth nopenjogi niya, “En ngʼat machal nade mane obiro moromo kodu kendo onyisou wechegi?”
8 So they said, “A hairy man, with a belt of leather wrapping his waist.” And he said, “It is Elijah, the Tishbite.”
Negidwoke niya, “Norwako law ma rayier, kendo notweyo okanda mar pien e nungone.” Eka ruoth nowacho niya, “Mano ne en Elija ja-Tishbi.”
9 And he sent to him a leader of fifty, with the fifty who were under him. And he ascended to him, sitting at the top of a hill, and he said, “Man of God, the king commanded that you should descend.”
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!”
10 And responding, Elijah said to the leader of fifty, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And then fire from heaven descended and devoured him and the fifty who were with him.
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.
11 And again, he sent to him another leader of fifty, and the fifty with him. And he said to him, “Man of God, thus says the king: Hurry, descend.”
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.
12 Responding, Elijah said, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And fire from heaven descended and devoured him and his fifty.
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.
13 Again, he sent a third leader of fifty men and the fifty who were with him. And when he had arrived, he bent his knees before Elijah, and he pleaded with him, and said: “Man of God, do not choose to despise my life and the lives of your servants who are with me.
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!
14 Behold, fire from heaven descended and devoured the two previous leaders of fifty and the fifties who were with them. But now I beg you to take pity on my life.”
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!”
15 Then the Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, saying, “Descend with him; fear not.” And so, he arose and descended with him to the king.
Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Elija niya, “Lor idhi kode, kik iluore.” Omiyo Elija nolor modhi kode ir ruoth.
16 And he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Because you sent messengers to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as if there were no God in Israel, from whom you would be able to seek a word, therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.”
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!”
17 And so he died, in accord with the word of the Lord, which Elijah spoke. And Jehoram, his brother, reigned in his place, in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah. For he had no son.
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.
18 But the rest of the words of Ahaziah that he worked, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
To weche moko mag loch Ahazia kod gik mane otimo, donge ondikgi e kitepe mochanie nonro mag ruodhi Israel?
