1 Kings 16
1 Then this message from the Lord came to the prophet Jehu, son of Hanani, condemning Baasha.
Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeeku mutabani wa Kanani nga kyogera ku Baasa nti,
2 “Even though I lifted you out of the dust to make you ruler over my people Israel, you have followed the way of Jeroboam and have made my people Israel sin, making me angry by their sins.
“Nakugulumiza nga nkuggya mu nfuufu ne nkufuula mukulembeze w’abantu bange Isirayiri, naye watambulira mu ngeri za Yerobowaamu era n’oyonoonyesa abantu bange Isirayiri, ne bansunguwaza n’ebibi byabwe.
3 Now I'm going to destroy Baasha and his family. Baasha, I will make your family like that of Jeroboam, son of Nebat.
Laba, ndisaanyizaawo ddala Baasa n’ennyumba ye, era ndifuula ennyumba ye okuba ng’eya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati.
4 Those of Baasha's family who die in the town will be eaten by dogs, and those who die in the countryside will be eaten by birds.”
Omuntu yenna owa Baasa bw’alifiira mu kibuga, omulambo gwe guliriibwa embwa, n’abo abalifiira ku ttale, ennyonyi ez’omu bbanga zirirya emirambo gyabwe.”
5 The rest of the events of Baasha's reign, everything that he did and what he accomplished, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Ebyafaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Baasa, bye yakola, awamu n’ebintu ebirungi bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
6 Baasha died and was buried in Tirzah. His son Elah succeeded him as king.
Awo Baasa ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe n’aziikibwa e Tiruza, mutabani we Era n’amusikira, n’alya obwakabaka.
7 The message from the Lord condemning Baasha and his family came to the prophet Jehu, son of Hanani. It came because Baasha had done what was evil in the Lord's sight, in the same way as the family of Jeroboam had done, and also because Baasha had killed Jeroboam's family. The Lord was angry because of Baasha's sins.
Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kituukirira, ekyajjira Yeeku mutabani wa Kanani ekikwata ku Baasa n’ennyumba ye olw’ebibi bye yakola mu maaso ga Mukama, ng’amusunguwaza olw’ebyo bye yakola, n’olw’okwonoona ng’afaanana ennyumba ya Yerobowaamu, ate era n’olw’okuba nga yagisaanyaawo.
8 Elah, son of Baasha, became king of Israel in the twenty-sixth year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Tirzah for two years.
Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu omukaaga ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda, Era mutabani wa Baasa n’afuuka kabaka wa Isirayiri; n’afugira mu Tiruza emyaka ebiri.
9 One of Elah's officials called Zimri who was in charge of half his chariots plotted a rebellion against him. One time Elah was in Tirzah, getting himself drunk at the home of Arza, the palace manager at Tirzah.
Awo Zimuli, omu ku bakungu be, eyakuliranga ekitundu ky’amagaali ge, n’amukolera olukwe. Mu kiseera ekyo Era yali Tiruza, ng’atamiirira mu maka ga Aluza, omusajja eyavunaanyizibwanga olubiri lw’e Tiruza.
10 Zimri went up to him, attacked him, and killed him. This was in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of Asa, king of Judah. Then he took over from him as king.
Mu kiseera ekyo, Zimuli n’ayingira n’amukuba n’amutta, n’oluvannyuma n’alya obwakabaka. Gwali mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu omusanvu ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda.
11 As soon as he became king and was installed on his throne, he killed all of Baasha's family. He did not leave a single male alive, whether of his relatives or of his friends.
Awo olwatuuka nga kyajje atuule ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka n’atta abantu b’ennyumba ya Baasa bonna, obutalekaawo musajja n’omu wa luganda lwa Baasa wadde mikwano gye.
12 So Zimri destroyed the entire household of Baasha, as the Lord had said in his condemnation of Baasha through Jehu the prophet.
Bw’atyo Zimuli n’asaanyaawo ennyumba ya Baasa yonna, ng’ekigambo kya Mukama bwe kyali kye yayogera ku Baasa ng’ayita mu nnabbi Yeeku,
13 This was because of all the sins Baasha and his son Elah had committed and had made Israel to commit. Their worship of their useless idols had angered the Lord, the God of Israel.
olw’ebibi bya Baasa ne mutabani we Era bye baakola n’okwonoonyesa Isirayiri, nga basunguwaza Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri olwa bakatonda beebeekolera abatagasa.
14 The rest of what happened in Elah's reign and everything that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Eby’afaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Era, ne bye yakola byonna, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo ky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
15 Zimri became king of Israel in the twenty-seventh year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Tirzah seven days. At that time the Israelite army was attacking the Philistine town of Gibbethon.
Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu omusanvu ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda, Zimuli n’afugira e Tiruza ennaku musanvu. Eggye lyali lisiisidde okumpi ne Gibbesoni ekibuga ky’Abafirisuuti.
16 When the troops who were camped there learned that Zimri had plotted rebellion against the king and had murdered him, they made Omri, the army commander, king of Israel that same day in the army camp.
Ku lunaku olwo Abayisirayiri abaali mu nkambi bwe baawulira nti Zimuli yasala olukwe, n’atta kabaka, Isirayiri yonna ne balangirira Omuli omuduumizi w’eggye okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri.
17 Omri and the whole Israelite army left Gibbethon and went and besieged Tirzah.
Omuli n’Abayisirayiri bonna abaali awamu naye ne bava e Gibbesoni ne bambuka okuzingiza Tiruza.
18 When Zimri saw that the city had been taken he went into the fortress of the royal palace and set it on fire around him, and he died, because of the sins he had committed.
Zimuli bwe yalaba ng’ekibuga kiwambiddwa, n’addukira mu lubiri olw’omunda, olubiri lwonna n’alukumako omuliro. N’afiira omwo.
19 He did evil in the Lord's sight and followed the way of Jeroboam and his sin which he had made Israel commit.
Ekyo kyamutuukako olw’ebibi bye yakola mu maaso ga Mukama, n’okutambulira mu ngeri za Yerobowaamu, ne mu kibi kye yakola, ne bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.
20 The rest of what happened in Zimri's reign and his rebellion are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Eby’afaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Zimuli, n’obujeemu bwe, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
21 After this the people of Israel were divided. Half supported Tibni, son of Ginath, as king, while the other half supported Omri.
Abantu ba Isirayiri ne baawukanamu ebibiina bibiri, ekitundu ekimu nga kiwagira Tibuni mutabani wa Ginasi okuba kabaka, nga n’ekitundu ekirala kiwagira Omuli.
22 However, those on Omri's side defeated Tibni's supporters. Tibni was killed and Omri became king.
Naye abagoberezi ba Omuli ne basinza aba Tibuni mutabani wa Ginasi amaanyi; Tibuni n’afa, Omuli n’afuuka kabaka.
23 Omri became king of Israel in the thirty-first year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned for a total of twelve years, (six of them were in Tirzah).
Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu ogumu ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa kabaka wa Yuda, Omuli n’alya obwakabaka obwa Isirayiri era n’afugira emyaka kkumi n’ebiri, mukaaga ku gyo ng’ali mu Tiruza.
24 He purchased the hill of Samaria from Shemer for two talents of silver. He fortified the hill, and named the city that he built Samaria, after Shemer, the previous owner of the hill.
Yagula olusozi lw’e Samaliya ku Semeri, ekilo nsanvu eza ffeeza, n’aluzimbako ekibuga, n’akituuma Samaliya, okukibbulamu Semeri eyali nannyini lusozi.
25 Omri did what was evil in the Lord's sight—in fact he did more evil than those who lived before him.
Naye Omuli n’akola ebyali ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, era n’ayonoona nnyo okusinga n’abo abaamusooka.
26 For he followed all the ways of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and in his sins which he made Israel commit, worshiping their useless idols which angered the Lord, the God of Israel.
N’atambulira mu ngeri zonna eza Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, ne mu kibi kye, kye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri era n’asunguwaza Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri olwa bakatonda beebeekolera abatagasa.
27 The rest of what happened in Omri's reign, what he did, and his achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Ebyafaayo ebirala eby’omu mirembe gya Omuli, ne bye yakola, n’ebyobuzira bye, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe gya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
28 Omri died and was buried in Samaria. His son Ahab succeeded him as king.
Omuli ne yeebakira wamu ne bajjajjaabe n’aziikibwa mu Samaliya; Akabu n’amusikira, n’alya obwakabaka.
29 Ahab, son of Omri, became king of Israel in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of King Asa of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for twenty-two years.
Mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu omunaana ogw’obufuzi bwa Asa Kabaka wa Yuda, Akabu mutabani wa Omuli n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri, n’afugira Isirayiri mu Samaliya emyaka amakumi abiri mu ebiri.
30 Ahab, son of Omri, did evil in the Lord's sight, more than those who lived before him.
Akabu mutabani wa Omuli n’akola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama okusinga bonna abaamusooka.
31 He didn't see anything to worry about in following the sins of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and he even married Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Sidonians, and started to serve and worship Baal.
Teyakoma ku kukola bibi bya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, naye era n’awasa ne Yezeberi muwala wa Esubaali kabaka w’Abasidoni, era n’atandika okuweereza n’okusinza Baali.
32 Ahab made an altar for Baal in the temple of Baal that he had built in Samaria.
Yazimbira Baali ekyoto mu ssabo lya Baali lye yazimba mu Samaliya.
33 Then he put up an Asherah pole. In this way Ahab did more to anger the Lord, the God of Israel, than all the kings of Israel before him.
Akabu n’akola n’empagi ya Baaseri, ne yeeyongera nnyo okusunguwaza Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, okusinga bakabaka abalala bonna aba Isirayiri abaamusooka.
34 During Ahab's reign Hiel of Bethel rebuilt Jericho. He sacrificed Abiram his firstborn son when he laid its foundation, and sacrificed Segub his youngest son when he constructed its gates. This fulfilled the message the Lord had given through Joshua, son of Nun.
Ku mirembe gya Akabu, Kyeri Omubeseri n’addaabiriza era n’azimba Yeriko. Era olw’ekigambo kya Mukama kye yayogerera mu Yoswa mutabani wa Nuuni, Kyeri bwe yassaawo emisingi gyakyo, n’afiirwa Abiraamu mutabani we omukulu; bwe yazimba wankaaki waakyo, Segubi mutabani we asembayo obuto naye n’afa.
