1 Kings 16
1 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Jehu
Ndipo Yehova anayankhula kudzera mwa Yehu mwana wa Hanani, mawu odzudzula Baasa kuti,
2 son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying: Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and gave thee to be leader over my people Israel, —and yet thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and caused, my people Israel, to sin, provoking 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 Behold me! consuming after Baasha, and after his house, —and I will deliver up thy house, like the house of Jeroboam 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 Him that dieth of Baasha in the city, shall, the dogs, eat, and, him that dieth of his in the field, shall, the birds of heaven, 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 story of Baasha, and what he did, and his might, are, they, not 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 So Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Tirzah, —and, Elah his son, reigned, in his stead.
Baasa anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda amene anayikidwa makolo ake ku Tiriza. Ndipo Ela mwana wake anakhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake.
7 Moreover also, through Jehu son of Hanani the prophet, the word of Yahweh, came against Baasha and against his house, even because of all the wickedness that he had done in the eyes of Yahweh, provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, becoming like the house of Jeroboam, —notwithstanding that he smote 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, began Elah son of Baasha to reign over Israel, in Tirzah, [and he reigned] 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 Then conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, —as 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 smote him and slew him, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, —and reigned in his stead.
Zimuri anadzalowa, namukantha ndi kumupha mʼchaka cha 27 cha Asa mfumu ya Yuda. Ndipo Zimuriyo anakhala mfumu mʼmalo mwake.
11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he smote all the house of Baasha, he left him not even the meanest, —neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.
Zimuri atangoyamba kulamulira, anapha banja lonse la Baasa. Sanasiyepo munthu wamwamuna ndi mmodzi yemwe, wachibale kapena bwenzi lake.
12 Thus did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha, —according to the word of Yahweh which he spake unto Baasha, through Jehu the prophet;
Choncho Zimuri anawononga banja lonse la Baasa, molingana ndi mawu amene Yehova anayankhula motsutsa Baasa kudzera mwa mneneri Yehu,
13 as to all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his son, —wherewith they sinned, and wherewith they caused, Israel, to sin, provoking to anger Yahweh God of Israel, 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 story of Elah, and all that he did, are, they, not 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, did Zimri reign, seven days in Tirzah, —but, the people, were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistine.
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 When therefore the people who were encamped, heard say, Zimri hath conspired, moreover also, he hath smitten the king, all Israel made Omri, general of the army, king over Israel, on 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 So Omri, and all Israel with him, went up from Gibbethon, —and laid siege against Tirzah.
Tsono Omuri ndi Aisraeli onse amene anali naye anachoka ku Gibetoni ndi kukazinga Mzinda wa Tiriza.
18 And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he entered into the citadel of the house of the king, —and burned over him the house of the king, 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 because of his sins which he committed by doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —by walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he committed, by causing, 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 story of Zimri, and his conspiracy wherein he conspired, are, they, not 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, —half the people, were following Tibni son of Ginath, to make him king, and, half, following Omri.
Pambuyo pake Aisraeli anagawikana pakati: theka linatsatira Tibini mwana wa Ginati kuti limulonge ufumu, ndipo theka lina linatsatira Omuri.
22 But, the people that followed Omri, prevailed against, the people that followed Tibni son of Ginath; so that, Tibni, died, and, Omri, reigned.
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, began Omri to reign over Israel [and he reigned] twelve years: in Tirzah, reigned he six years.
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 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 which he built, after the name of Shemer lord 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 And Omri did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and did more wickedly than all who were before him;
Koma Omuri anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova ndipo anachimwa kuposa mafumu ena onse amene analipo iye asanakhale mfumu.
26 yea he walked in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he caused, Israel, to sin, —provoking to anger Yahweh, God of Israel, 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 story of Omri, what he did, and his might that he shewed, are, they, not 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 stead.
Choncho Omuri anamwalira nayikidwa mʼmanda amene anayikidwa makolo ake ku Samariya. Ndipo Ahabu mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
29 Now, Ahab son of Omri, began to reign over Israel, in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, —and Ahab 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 And Ahab son of Omri did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and did more wickedly than all that were before him.
Ahabu mwana wa Omuri anachita zoyipa zambiri pamaso pa Yehova kupambana mafumu onse akale.
31 And it come to pass, as though it had been too light a thing that he should walk in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and bowed down to 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 And he reared an altar unto Baal, —in the house of Baal, which he built in Samaria.
Iye anapangira Baala guwa lansembe mʼnyumba ya Baala imene anamanga ku Samariya.
33 And Ahab made the Sacred Stem, —and Ahab did yet more to provoke to anger Yahweh God of Israel 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, did Hiel the Bethelite build Jericho, —At the price of Abiram his firstborn, he laid its foundation, and, at the price of Segub his youngest, he set up its doors, according to the word of Yahweh which he spake through Joshua 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.
