1 Kings 13
1 And beholde, there came a man of God out of Iudah (by the commandement of the Lord) vnto Beth-el, and Ieroboam stoode by the altar to offer incense.
Ndipo taonani, munthu wa Mulungu wochokera ku Yuda anapita ku Beteli molamulidwa ndi Yehova. Nthawi imeneyo nʼkuti Yeroboamu atayimirira pambali pa guwa akufukiza lubani.
2 And he cryed against the altar by the comandement of the Lord, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord, Beholde, a child shalbe borne vnto the house of Dauid, Iosiah by name, and vpon thee shall he sacrifice the Priestes of the hie places that burne incense vpon thee, and they shall burne mens bones vpon thee.
Mneneriyo anatemberera guwalo mofuwula potsata mawu a Yehova nati: “Guwa iwe, guwa iwe! Yehova akuti, ‘Taonani mʼbanja la Davide mudzabadwa mwana dzina lake Yosiya. Pa iwe, iyeyo adzaperekapo ngati nsembe, ansembe otumikira ku malo achipembedzo amene tsopano akufukiza lubani pa iwe, ndipo pa iwe adzatenthapo mafupa a anthu.’”
3 And he gaue a signe the same time, saying, This is the signe, that the Lord hath spoken, Behold, the altar shall rent, and the ashes that are vpon it, shall fall out.
Tsiku lomwelo munthu wa Mulungu uja anapereka chizindikiro ichi: “Chizindikiro chimene Yehova wanena ndi ichi: Taonani guwali lidzangʼambika pakati ndipo phulusa lili pamenepo lidzamwazika.”
4 And when the King had heard the saying of the man of God, which he had cryed against the altar in Beth-el, Ieroboam stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, Lay holde on him: but his hande which he put foorth against him, dryed vp, and he could not pull it in againe to him.
Mfumu Yeroboamu atamva zimene munthu wa Mulungu ananena motemberera guwa lansembe ku Beteli, anatambasula dzanja lake ali ku guwako ndipo anati, “Mugwireni!” Koma dzanja limene anatambasula kuloza munthu wa Mulunguyo linawuma kuti gwaa, kotero kuti sanathenso kulibweza.
5 The altar also claue asunder, and the ashes fell out from the altar, according to the signe, which the man of God had giuen by the commandement of the Lord.
Nthawi yomweyo guwa lija linangʼambika pakati ndipo phulusa lake linamwazika molingana ndi chizindikiro chimene munthu wa Mulungu anapereka potsata mawu a Yehova.
6 Then the King answered, and saide vnto the man of God, I beseeche thee, pray vnto ye Lord thy God, and make intercession for me, that mine hand may bee restored vnto me. And the man of God besought the Lord, and the Kings hand was restored, and became as it was afore.
Pamenepo mfumu inati kwa munthu wa Mulunguyo, “Undipempherere kwa Yehova Mulungu wako kuti andikomere mtima ndipo undipempherere kuti dzanja langa lichire.” Choncho munthu wa Mulungu anapempha kwa Yehova, ndipo dzanja la mfumu linachiritsidwa nʼkukhala ngati momwe linalili kale.
7 Then the King sayde vnto the man of God, Come home with mee, that thou mayest dyne, and I will giue thee a reward.
Mfumu inati kwa munthu wa Mulunguyo, “Tiye kwathu kuti ukadye chakudya, ndipo ndidzakupatsa mphatso.”
8 But the man of God saide vnto the King, If thou wouldest giue me halfe thine house, I would not goe in with thee, neither woulde I eate bread nor drinke water in this place.
Koma munthu wa Mulunguyo anayankha mfumu kuti, “Ngakhale mutandipatsa theka la chuma chanu, sindingapite nanu, kapena kudya chakudya, kapenanso kumwa madzi kuno.
9 For so was it charged mee by the worde of the Lord, saying, Eate no bread nor drinke water, nor turne againe by the same way that thou camest.
Pakuti Yehova anandilamula kuti, ‘Usakadye chakudya kapena kumwa madzi kapena kubwerera podzera njira imene unayendamo kale.’”
10 So he went another way and returned not by the way that he came to Beth-el.
Choncho munthu wa Mulunguyo anadzera njira ina ndipo sanatsate njira imene anayendamo pobwera ku Beteliko.
11 And an olde Prophet dwelt in Beth-el, and his sonnes came and tolde him all ye woorkes, that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and the wordes which he had spoken vnto the King, tolde they their father.
Tsono ku Beteli kunkakhala mneneri wina wokalamba. Mmodzi mwa ana ake anamufotokozera zonse zomwe munthu wa Mulungu anachita kumeneko tsiku limenelo. Anawuzanso abambo ake zimene ananena kwa mfumu.
12 And their father sayde vnto them, What way went he? and his sonnes shewed him what waye the man of God went, which came from Iudah.
Abambo awo aja anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi wadzera njira iti?” Ana akewo anamufotokozera njira imene munthu wa Mulungu wochokera ku Yudayo anadzera.
13 And hee saide vnto his sonnes, Saddle mee the asse. Who sadled him the asse, and hee rode thereon,
Ndipo abambo aja anati kwa ana akewo, “Mangireni chishalo pa bulu.” Anawo atamangirira chishalo pa bulu, nkhalambayo inakwera buluyo
14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting vnder an oke: and he saide vnto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Iudah? And he sayd, Yea.
ndipo inalondola munthu wa Mulunguyo. Inamupeza atakhala pansi pa mtengo wa thundu ndipo inamufunsa kuti, “Kodi ndiwe munthu wa Mulungu amene anabwera kuchokera ku Yuda?” Munthuyo anayankha kuti, “Inde, ndineyo.”
15 Then he said vnto him, Come home with me, and eate bread.
Choncho mneneri wokalambayo anati kwa iye, “Tiye kwathu kuti ukadye chakudya.”
16 But he answered, I may not returne with thee, nor go in with thee, neither wil I eate bread nor drinke water with thee in this place.
Munthu wa Mulungu uja anati, “Sindingabwerere nanu kapena kudya chakudya kapenanso kumwa madzi kuno.
17 For it was charged me by the word of the Lord, saying, Thou shalt eate no bread, nor drinke water there, nor turne againe to goe by the way that thou wentest.
Pakuti ndawuzidwa ndi Yehova kuti, ‘Usadye chakudya kapena kumwa madzi kumeneko kapenanso kubwerera poyenda njira imene unayendamo popita.’”
18 And he said vnto him, I am a Prophet also as thou art, and an Angel spake vnto me by the worde of the Lord, saying, Bring him againe with thee into thine house, that hee may eate bread and drinke water: but he lyed vnto him.
Mneneri wokalambayo anayankha kuti, “Inenso ndine mneneri ngati iwe. Ndipo mngelo wa Yehova anayankhula nane mawu a Yehova kuti, ‘Kamubweze abwere ku nyumba yako kuti akadye chakudya ndi kumwa madzi.’” Koma anamunamiza.
19 So he went againe with him, and did eate bread in his house, and dranke water.
Choncho munthu wa Mulungu uja anabwerera naye ndipo anakadya ndi kumwa madzi mʼnyumba mwake.
20 And as they sate at the table, the worde of the Lord came vnto the Prophet, that brought him againe.
Ali pa tebulo, Yehova anayankhula ndi mneneri wokalambayo amene anamubweza munthu wa Mulunguyo.
21 And hee cried vnto the man of God that came from Iudah, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Because thou hast disobeyed the mouth of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandement which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
Iye anafuwulira munthu wa Mulungu wochokera ku Yudayo kuti, “Yehova akuti, ‘Iwe wanyoza mawu a Yehova ndipo sunasunge lamulo limene Yehova Mulungu wako anakupatsa.
22 But camest backe againe, and hast eaten bread and drunke water in the place (whereof he did say vnto thee, Thou shalt eate no bread nor drinke any water) thy carkeis shall not come vnto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
Iwe wabwerera ndi kudya chakudya ndiponso kumwa madzi ku malo amene Iye anakuwuza kuti usadye chakudya kapena kumwa madzi. Choncho mtembo wako sadzawuyika mʼmanda a makolo ako.’”
23 And when he had eaten bread and drunke, he sadled him the asse, to wit, to the Prophet whome he had brought againe.
Munthu wa Mulungu atatha kudya ndi kumwa, mneneri amene anamubweza uja anamangirira chishalo pa bulu wa munthu wa Mulunguyo.
24 And when hee was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slewe him, and his body was cast in the way, and the asse stoode thereby: the lion stood by the corps also.
Akupita, anakumana ndi mkango pa msewu ndipo unamupha, mtembo wake unagwera pansi pa msewu, bulu uja anayima pambali pake ndipo mkango unayima pafupi ndi mtembowo.
25 And beholde, men that passed by, sawe the carkeis cast in the way, and the lion standing by the corps: and they came and tolde it in ye towne where the olde Prophet dwelt.
Ndipo taonani, anthu ena amene ankapita mu msewumo anaona mtembowo uli pansi potero, mkango utayima pa mbali pa mtembo uja ndipo anapita nakafotokozera anthu mu mzinda umene mumakhala mneneri wokalamba uja.
26 And when the Prophet that brought him backe againe from the waye, hearde thereof, hee sayde, It is the man of God, who hath bene disobedient vnto the commandement of the Lord: therefore the Lord hath deliuered him vnto the lion, which hath rent him and slayne him, according to the worde of the Lord, which hee spake vnto him.
Mneneri amene anamubweza mnzake ku njira uja atamva zimenezi, anati, “Ameneyo ndi munthu wa Mulungu amene wanyoza mawu a Yehova. Yehova wamupereka kwa mkango umene wamukhadzula ndi kumupha, monga momwe Yehova anamuchenjezera.”
27 And he spake to his sonnes, saying, Saddle me the asse. And they sadled him.
Mneneri wokalambayo anati kwa ana ake, “Mundimangire chishalo pa bulu,” ndipo anaterodi.
28 And he went and founde his body cast in the way, and the asse and the lion stoode by the corps: and the lion had not eaten the bodie, nor torne the asse.
Ndipo anapita, nakapezadi mtembo utagwera pansi mu msewu, bulu pamodzi ndi mkango atayima pambali pake. Koma mkangowo sunadye mtembowo kapena kukhadzula buluyo.
29 And the Prophet tooke vp the body of the man of God, and layed it vpon the asse, and brought it againe, and the olde Prophet came to the citie, to lament and burie him.
Choncho mneneri wokalambayo anatenga mtembo wa munthu wa Mulunguyo, nawuyika pa bulu, ndipo anabwera nawo ku mzinda kuti alire maliro ndi kuyika mtembowo mʼmanda.
30 And hee layed his bodie in his owne graue, and they lamented ouer him, saying, Alas, my brother.
Tsono anayika mtembowo mʼmanda amene mneneri wokalamba uja anadzikonzera, ndipo anamulira pomanena kuti, “Mʼbale wanga ine! Mʼbale wanga ine!”
31 And when he had buried him, hee spake to his sonnes, saying, When I am dead, burie ye mee also in the sepulchre, wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.
Atamuyika mʼmanda, iye anati kwa ana ake, “Ine ndikafa, mudzandiyike mʼmanda amene munthu wa Mulungu wayikidwa. Mudzayike mafupa anga pambali pa mafupa ake.
32 For that thing which he cried by the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the hie places, which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to passe.
Pakuti uthenga umene Yehova anamuyankhulitsa, wotsutsana ndi guwa lansembe la ku Beteli ndi nyumba zonse za chipembedzo za mʼmizinda ya ku Samariya, zidzachitika ndithu.”
33 Howbeit after this, Ieroboam conuerted not from his wicked way, but turned againe, and made of the lowest of the people Priests of the hie places. Who would, might consecrate him selfe, and be of the Priestes of the hie places.
Ngakhale izi zinachitika, Yeroboamu sanasiye njira zake zoyipa, koma anasankhanso anthu wamba kukhala ansembe pa malo ake achipembedzo. Aliyense amene ankafuna kukhala wansembe iye anamupatula kukhala wansembe.
34 And this thing turned to sinne vnto the house of Ieroboam, euen to roote it out, and destroy it from the face of the earth.
Limeneli ndiye linali tchimo la nyumba ya Yeroboamu limene linabweretsa kugwa kwake ndiponso chiwonongeko mʼdzikomo.
