1 Kings 16
1 And the word of Jehovah came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, ozi Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼọnụ Jehu, nwa Hanani banyere Baasha, eze Izrel sị ya,
2 Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, provoking me to anger with their sins;
“Esi m nʼaja welie gị elu, mee gị onye ọchịchị ndị m Izrel. Ma i jeela ije nʼụzọ ọjọọ niile nke Jeroboam. I meela ka ndị m bụ Izrel mmehie, si otu a kpasuo m iwe site na mmehie ha.
3 behold, I will take away Baasha and his house, and will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Ya mere, aga m ekpochapụ Baasha na ezinaụlọ ya, m ga-emekwa ụlọ gị ka ọ dịka ụlọ Jeroboam, nwa Nebat.
4 Him that dieth of Baasha in the city shall the dogs eat, and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowl of the heavens eat.
Onye ọbụla nke metụtara Baasha nke nwụrụ nʼime obodo ka nkịta ga-eri ozu ya, ma ndị nwụrụ nʼọhịa ka anụ ufe nke eluigwe ga-eri ozu ha.”
5 And the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Akụkọ niile banyere ọrụ Baasha rụrụ, na ibu agha ya niile, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ọrụ ndị eze Izrel?
6 And Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his stead.
Baasha sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya na Tịaza. Ela, nwa ya nwoke, nọchiri ọnọdụ ya dịka eze.
7 And also through the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani the word of Jehovah came against Baasha, and against his house, even for all the evil that he did in the sight of Jehovah, provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he had smitten him.
Ma ozi Onyenwe anyị si nʼọnụ Jehu onye amụma, nwa Hanani bịara Baasha na ndị ezinaụlọ ya nʼihi ihe ọjọọ niile o mere, si otu a kpasuo Onyenwe anyị iwe. Ọ bụ ezie na ọ maara na Onyenwe anyị kpochapụrụ ezinaụlọ Jeroboam nʼihi ihe ọjọọ o mere, ma Baasha gara nʼihu mee ihe ọjọọ.
8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha began to reign over Israel in Tirzah for two years.
Ela, nwa Baasha, malitere ịbụ eze Izrel nʼiri afọ abụọ na isii nke ịbụ eze Asa, eze Juda. Ma naanị afọ abụọ ka ọ chịrị dịka eze na Tịaza.
9 And his servant Zimri, captain of half [his] chariots, conspired against him; and he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was the steward of his house in Tirzah;
Mgbe ahụ, Zimri, ọchịagha na-achị ọkara ụgbọala agha eze, gbara izuzu megide ya. Nʼoge a, Ela nọ na-aṅụ mmanya na Tịaza, nʼụlọ Aza, onye na-elekọta ụlọeze dị nʼobodo ahụ. Ọ ṅụkwara mmanya ahụ ṅụbiga ya oke.
10 and Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned in his stead.
Zimri batara kụdaa ma gbukwaa ya. Ọ bụ nʼiri afọ abụọ na asaa nke ọchịchị Asa, eze Juda. Ọ bụụrụ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
11 And it came to pass when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, he slew all the house of Baasha: he left him not a male, neither of his kinsmen nor of his friends.
Ngwangwa ọ ghọrọ eze, nọkwasị nʼocheeze ya, o gburu mmadụ niile nọ nʼezinaụlọ Baasha. Ọ hapụghị ọ bụladị otu nwoke. O gburu ikwu na ibe Baasha, na ndị enyi ya niile.
12 And Zimri destroyed all the house of Baasha, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke against Baasha through Jehu the prophet,
Ya mere, Zimri kpochapụrụ ndị ezinaụlọ niile Baasha, nʼusoro okwu Onyenwe anyị kwuru megide Baasha site nʼọnụ onye amụma ya bụ Jehu.
13 for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned and wherewith they made Israel to sin, provoking Jehovah the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
Nʼihi mmehie niile nke Baasha na nwa ya Ela mere, na nke ha ji mee ka Izrel mehie, bịakwa kpasuo iwe Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke Izrel, site nʼarụsị ha niile na-abaghị uru.
14 And the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Akụkọ banyere ọchịchị Ela, na ihe niile o mere e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ ọchịchị ndị eze Izrel?
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which [belonged] to the Philistines.
Nʼafọ nke iri abụọ na asaa nke ọchịchị Asa, eze Juda, ka Zimri chịrị ụbọchị asaa na Tịaza. Nʼoge a, ndị agha Izrel mara ụlọ ikwu na Gibeton, obodo ndị Filistia na-ebu agha.
16 And the people that were encamped heard say, Zimri has conspired, and has also smitten the king; and all Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that day in the camp.
Mgbe ha nụrụ na Zimri egbuola eze ha, ha niile kwekọtara mee Omri eze ọhụrụ ha. Omri bụ onyeisi agha ndị agha Izrel niile.
17 And Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
Nʼihi nke a, Omri duuru ndị agha ahụ nọ na Gibeton bịa ibuso Tịaza, isi obodo Izrel agha.
18 And it came to pass when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the citadel of the king's house, and burned the king's house over him with fire;
Mgbe Zimri hụrụ na-adọtala obodo ahụ nʼagha, ọ banyere nʼụlọ elu dị nʼụlọeze, sunye onwe ya na ụlọeze ahụ ọkụ. O si otu a nwụọ,
19 and he died for his sins which he sinned in doing evil in the sight of Jehovah, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, making Israel to sin.
nʼihi na Zimri nʼonwe ya mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka Jeroboam. Ọ kpọrọ isiala nye arụsị, dubakwa ụmụ Izrel nʼime mmehie.
20 And the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his conspiracy which he wrought, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Akụkọ banyere Zimri na ihe ọjọọ niile o mere e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ọchịchị ndị eze Izrel?
21 Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri.
Ma nʼoge a, ndị Izrel kere onwe ha ụzọ abụọ maka onye ga-abụ eze ha. Otu ụzọ dịnyeere Omri, ndị nke ọzọ dịnyeere Tibni, nwa Ginat.
22 But the people that followed Omri overcame the people that followed Tibni the son of Ginath; and Tibni died, and Omri reigned.
Ma ndị dịnyeere Omri dị ike karịa ndị dịnyeere Tibni, nwa Ginat. Ya mere, Tibni nwụrụ. Omri ghọkwara eze Izrel.
23 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel, — twelve years; he reigned six years in Tirzah.
Asa, eze Juda anọọla iri afọ atọ na otu dịka eze mgbe Omri malitere ịbụ eze Izrel. Omri chịrị Izrel afọ iri na abụọ, afọ isii nʼime afọ ndị a na Tịaza.
24 And he bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and built on the hill, and called the name of the city that he built, after the name of Shemer, owner of the hill, Samaria.
Omri zụrụ ala ugwu ugwu a na-akpọ Sameria site nʼaka Shema, kwụọ ya talenti ọlaọcha abụọ. O wuru obodo ọhụrụ nʼugwu ahụ gụọ aha ya Sameria, nʼihi na aha onyenwe ala ahụ na mbụ bụ Shema.
25 And Omri wrought evil in the sight of Jehovah, and did worse than all that were before him.
Ma Omri mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị karịa ndị eze Izrel niile buru ya ụzọ.
26 And he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin, provoking Jehovah the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
Ọ kpọrọ isiala nye arụsị, dịka Jeroboam nwa Nebat mere. O dubakwara ndị Izrel nʼime mmehie. Nʼihi nke a o mere ka iwe wee Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel, nʼihi arụsị nzuzu ha.
27 And the rest of the acts of Omri, what he did, and his might which he shewed, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Akụkọ ihe niile Omri mere, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ọchịchị ndị eze Izrel?
28 And Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria; and Ahab his son reigned in his stead.
Omri sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya na Sameria. Ehab, nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
29 And Ahab the son of Omri began to reign over Israel in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah; and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.
Nʼafọ nke iri atọ na asatọ nke ọchịchị eze Asa na Juda, ka Ehab, nwa Omri, malitere ịchị dịka eze nʼIzrel. Ọ chịrị ndị Izrel iri afọ abụọ na abụọ na Sameria.
30 And Ahab the son of Omri wrought evil in the sight of Jehovah more than all that were before him.
Ehab nwa Omri mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị karịa ndị eze niile buru ya ụzọ.
31 And it came to pass, as if it was a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took as wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians; and he went and served Baal and worshipped him.
Ọ bụghị naanị na ọ gụrụ mmehie niile Jeroboam nwa Nebat mere dị ka ihe dị nta, kama ọ gara nʼihu lụọ Jezebel, nwa nwanyị Etbaal, eze ndị Saịdọn. O bidokwara ịkpọ isiala nye arụsị Baal, na ife ya ofufe.
32 And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he built in Samaria.
O guzobere ebe ịchụ aja nye Baal, nʼụlọ arụsị Baal nke o wuru na Sameria.
33 And Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did more to provoke Jehovah the God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him.
Ehab manyere ogidi chi Ashera, si otu a kpasuo Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke nke Izrel iwe karịa otu ndị eze Izrel niile bu ya ụzọ chịa si mee.
34 In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho; he laid its foundation in Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates in Segub his youngest, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke through Joshua the son of Nun.
Mgbe Ehab na-achị, ka Hiel, onye Betel, wughachiri obodo Jeriko. Ọkpara ya bụ Abiram nwụrụ, mgbe ọ tọrọ ntọala obodo ahụ, ka ọ guzobere ọnụ ụzọ ama ya ọtọ, nwa ya nwoke nke nta aha ya bụ Segub nwụrụ, imezu okwu Onyenwe anyị kwuru site nʼọnụ Joshua nwa Nun.
