1 Kings 16
1 The word of YHWH came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
Ndipo Yehova anayankhula kudzera mwa Yehu mwana wa Hanani, mawu odzudzula Baasa kuti,
2 "Because I exalted you out of the dust, and made you ruler over my people Israel, and you have walked in the way of Jeroboam, and have made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins;
“Ine ndinakukuza kuchokera pa fumbi ndipo ndinakupanga kuti ukhale mtsogoleri wa anthu anga Aisraeli, koma iwe wakhala ukuyenda mʼnjira za Yeroboamu ndi kuchimwitsa anthu anga Aisraeli naputa mkwiyo wanga chifukwa cha machimo awo.
3 look, I will utterly sweep away Baasha and his house; and I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Taonani, Ine ndatsala pangʼono kuwononga Baasa pamodzi ndi nyumba yake, ndipo ndidzachitira nyumba yake zimene ndinachita pa nyumba ya Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati.
4 The dogs will eat Baasha's descendants who die in the city; and he who dies of his in the field the birds of the sky will eat."
Agalu adzadya aliyense wa banja la Baasa amene adzafere mu mzinda, ndipo mbalame za mu mlengalenga zidzadya iwo amene adzafere kuthengo.”
5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Tsono ntchito zina za Baasa ndi zamphamvu zake zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
6 Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah; and Elah his son reigned in his place.
Baasa anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda amene anayikidwa makolo ake ku Tiriza. Ndipo Ela mwana wake anakhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake.
7 Moreover by the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of YHWH against Baasha, and against his house, both because of all the evil that he did in the sight of YHWH, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he struck him.
Komatu Yehova anayankhula kwa Baasa pamodzi ndi banja lake lonse kudzera mwa mneneri Yehu mwana wa Hanani, chifukwa cha zoyipa zonse zimene iye anachita pamaso pa Yehova, kukwiyitsa Yehovayo nakhala ngati nyumba ya Yeroboamu ndiponso chifukwa anawonongeratu banja la Yeroboamu.
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.
Mʼchaka cha 26 cha ufumu wa Asa mfumu ya Yuda, Ela mwana wa Baasa anakhala mfumu ya Israeli, ndipo analamulira ku Tiriza zaka ziwiri.
9 His servant Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him. Now he was in Tirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was over the household in Tirzah.
Zimuri, mmodzi mwa akuluakulu ake, amene ankalamulira theka la magaleta ake, anamuchitira chiwembu. Nthawi imeneyi Ela anali ku Tiriza, akumwa koledzera nako mʼnyumba ya Ariza, munthu amene ankayangʼanira nyumba yaufumu ku Tiriza.
10 And Zimri went in and struck him, and killed him, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his place.
Zimuri anadzalowa, namukantha ndi kumupha mʼchaka cha 27 cha Asa mfumu ya Yuda. Ndipo Zimuriyo anakhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake.
11 It happened, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he struck all the house of Baasha: he did not leave him a single one who urinates on a wall, neither of his relatives, nor of his friends.
Zimuri atangoyamba kulamulira, anapha banja lonse la Baasa. Sanasiyepo munthu wamwamuna ndi mmodzi yemwe, wachibale kapena bwenzi lake.
12 Thus Zimri destroyed all the house of Baasha, according to the word of YHWH, which he spoke against Baasha by Jehu the prophet,
Choncho Zimuri anawononga banja lonse la Baasa, molingana ndi mawu amene Yehova anayankhula motsutsa Baasa kudzera mwa mneneri Yehu,
13 for all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned, and with which they made Israel to sin, to provoke YHWH, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.
chifukwa cha machimo onse amene Baasa ndi mwana wake Ela anachita nachimwitsa Israeli, anakwiyitsa Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli ndi mafano awo osapindulitsa.
14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Tsono ntchito zina za Ela ndi zina zonse zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned seven days in Tirzah. Now the people were camped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.
Mʼchaka cha 27 cha Asa mfumu ya Yuda, Zimuri analamulira ku Tiriza masiku asanu ndi awiri. Gulu la ankhondo linali litamanga misasa pafupi ndi Gibetoni, mzinda wa Afilisti.
16 The people who were camped heard it said, "Zimri has conspired, and has also struck the king." Therefore all Israel made Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.
Ankhondo amene anali ku misasa atamva kuti Zimuri wachita chiwembu ndi kupha mfumu, tsiku lomwelo ku misasako anasankha Omuri, mkulu wa ankhondo kukhala mfumu ya Israeli.
17 Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
Tsono Omuri ndi Aisraeli onse amene anali naye anachoka ku Gibetoni ndi kukazinga Mzinda wa Tiriza.
18 It happened, when Zimri saw that the city was taken, that he went into the citadel of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, and died,
Zimuri ataona kuti mzinda walandidwa, anathawira ku nsanja ya nyumba ya mfumu ndipo anatentha nyumbayo iye ali momwemo. Kotero iyeyo anafa,
19 for his sins which he sinned in doing that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin.
chifukwa cha machimo amene iye anachita, kuchita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova ndi kuyenda mʼnjira za Yeroboamu, nachimwitsa nazo Aisraeli.
20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason that he committed, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Tsono ntchito zina za Zimuri ndi chiwembu chake chimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
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.
Pambuyo pake Aisraeli anagawikana pakati: theka linatsatira Tibini mwana wa Ginati kuti limulonge ufumu, ndipo theka lina linatsatira Omuri.
22 But the people who followed Omri prevailed against the people who followed Tibni the son of Ginath. So Tibni died and Joram his brother at that time, and Omri became king in the place of Tibni.
Koma anthu otsatira Omuri anali amphamvu kupambana amene ankatsatira Tibini mwana wa Ginati. Choncho Tibini anafa ndipo Omuri anakhala mfumu.
23 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri began to reign over Israel for twelve years. He reigned six years in Tirzah.
Mʼchaka cha 31 cha Asa mfumu ya Yuda, Omuri anakhala mfumu ya Israeli, ndipo analamulira zaka 12 ndi miyezi isanu ndi umodzi ku Tiriza.
24 He bought the hill Samaria of Shemer for two talents of silver; and he built on the hill, and called the name of the city which he built, after the name of Shemer, the owner of the hill, Samaria.
Iye anagula phiri la Samariya kwa Semeri pa mtengo wa ndalama 6,000 za siliva ndipo pa phiripo anamangapo mzinda, nawutcha Samariya, potsata dzina la Semeri, dzina la mwini wakale wa phirilo.
25 Omri did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, and dealt wickedly above all who were before him.
Koma Omuri anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova ndipo anachimwa kuposa mafumu ena onse amene analipo iye asanakhale mfumu.
26 For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sins with which he made Israel to sin, to provoke YHWH, the God of Israel, to anger with their vanities.
Pakuti iye anayenda mʼnjira zonse za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, ndipo tchimo lake anachimwitsa nalo Aisraeli, nakwiyitsa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli ndi mafano awo opandapake.
27 Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did, and his might that he showed, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Tsono ntchito zina za Omuri ndi zamphamvu zimene anachita, kodi sizinalembedwe mʼbuku la mbiri ya mafumu a Israeli?
28 So Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria; and Ahab his son reigned in his place.
Choncho Omuri anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda amene anayikidwa makolo ake ku Samariya. Ndipo Ahabu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
29 In the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah began Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel: and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.
Mʼchaka cha 38 cha ufumu wa Asa, mfumu ya Yuda, Ahabu mwana wa Omuri anakhala mfumu ya Israeli nalamulira Israeli ku Samariya zaka 22.
30 Ahab the son of Omri did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH above all that were before him.
Ahabu mwana wa Omuri anachita zoyipa zambiri pamaso pa Yehova kupambana mafumu onse akale.
31 It happened, as if it had been 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 Sidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshiped him.
Iye sanachiyese ngati chinthu chochepa chabe kuchita machimo a Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, koma anakwatiranso Yezebeli, mwana wa Etibaala mfumu ya Asidoni, nayamba kutumikira Baala ndi kumupembedza.
32 He reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.
Iye anapangira Baala guwa lansembe mʼnyumba ya Baala imene anamanga ku Samariya.
33 Ahab made the Asherah; and Ahab did yet more to provoke YHWH, the God of Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him.
Ahabu anapanganso fano la Asera ndi kukwiyitsa kwambiri Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, kupambana mafumu onse a Israeli amene analipo iye asanakhale mfumu.
34 In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho: he laid its foundation with the loss of Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the word of YHWH, which he spoke by Joshua the son of Nun.
Pa nthawi ya Ahabu, Hiyeli wa ku Beteli anamanganso mzinda wa Yeriko. Pa nthawi yomanga maziko ake, mwana wake woyamba wa mwamuna, Abiramu anamwalira, ndipo pa nthawi yomanga zipata zake, mwana wa mngʼono wa mwamuna Segubu, anamwaliranso. Izi zinachitika monga momwe Yehova ananenera kudzera mwa Yoswa mwana wa Nuni.
