1 Kings 21
1 And it came to pass, after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had, a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, —hard by the palace of Ahab, king of Samaria.
Ary rehefa afaka izany zavatra izany, Nabota Jezirelita nanana tanim-boaloboka tao Jezirela, takaikin’ ny lapan’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ i Samaria.
2 Ahab, therefore, spake unto Naboth, saying—Come! give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, for, the same, is near by my house, and let me give thee, instead thereof, a vineyard better than it, —if it be good in thine eyes, I will give thee silver to the value of this.
Ary Ahaba niteny tamin’ i Nabota hoe: Omeo ahy ny tanim-boalobokao mba hataoko fambolena anana, fa akaikin’ ny lapako izy; ary hotakalozako tanim-boaloboka tsara noho izy, na vola tokom-bidiny, raha izany no sitraky ny fonao.
3 And Naboth said unto Ahab, —Far be it from me, of Yahweh! that I should give up the inheritance of my fathers, unto thee!
Fa hoy Nabota tamin’ i Ahaba: Sanatria amiko eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah izany! fa tsy homeko anao any tanin-drazako.
4 So Ahab came into his house, sullen and disturbed, because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken unto him, that he should have said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. So he laid him down upon his bed, and turned away his face, and did eat no food.
Ary Ahaba nankany an-trano sady malahelo no sosotra noho ny teny nolazain’ i Nabota Jezirelita taminy hoe: Tsy homeko anao ny tanindrazako. Dia nandry teo am-parafarany izy ka nampihodina ny tavany sady tsy nety nihinan-kanina.
5 Then came unto him Jezebel his wife, —and said unto him—Why is it, that thy spirit is sullen, that thou art, not eating food?
Ary Jezebela vadiny nankeo aminy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana no mampahasosotra anao toy izao, no tsy mety homan-kanina ianao?
6 And he said unto her—Because I spake unto Naboth, the Jezreelite, and said unto him—Come! give me thy vineyard for silver, or, if thou wouldst prefer, I will give thee a vineyard, in its stead; and he said—I will not give thee my vineyard.
Dia hoy izy taminy: Satria niteny tamin’ i Nabora Jezirelita aho ka nanao taminy hoe: Omeo ahy ny tanim-boalobokao hovidiko vola, na hotakalozako tanim-boaloboka hafa, raha izany no sitraky ny fonao; fa izy namaly hoe: Tsy homeko anao ny tanim-boaloboko.
7 Then Jezebel his wife said unto him: Art, thou, still, going to carry on the kingdom over Israel? Rise! eat food, and let thy heart be merry, I, will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite!
Ary hoy Jezebela vadiny taminy: Moa ianao tokoa va no manjaka amin’ ny Isiraely izao? Miarena, mihinàna hanina, ary aoka ho ravoravo ny fonao; izaho hanome anao ny tanim-boalobok’ i Nabota Jezirelita.
8 So she wrote letters, in the name of Ahab, and sealed them with his signet-ring, —and sent the letters unto the elders, and unto the nobles who were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
Ary Jezebela dia nanoratra taratasy tamin’ ny anaran’ i Ahaba, ka notombohiny tamin’ ny fanombohan-kasen’ andriana, ary ny taratasy dia nampitondrainy ho any amin’ ny loholona sy ny manan-kaja tao an-tanànany, dia ireo niara-nitoetra tamin’ i Nabota.
9 Now she wrote in the letters, saying, —Proclaim ye a fast, and cause Naboth to sit at the head of the people;
Ary izao no nosoratany tao amin’ ny taratasy: Miantsoa andro fifadian-kanina, ary apetraho eo anatrehan’ ny olona Nabota.
10 then let two reckless men take their seats before him, that they may bear witness against him, saying, Thou hast reviled God and king! then shall ye carry him forth and stone him, that he die.
Dia anangano roa lahy izay tena ratsy fanahy ho eo anatrehany hiampanga azy hoe: Efa niteny ratsy an’ Andriamanitra sy ny mpanjaka ianao. Dia ento mivoaka izy, ka torahy vato ho faty.
11 So the men of his city, the elders and the nobles who dwelt in his city, did just as Jezebel had sent unto them, —as it was written in the letters which she had sent unto them:
Ary ny olona tao an-tanànany, dia ny loholona sy ny manan-kaja izay nonina tao, nanao araka izay nanirahan’ i Jezebela tany aminy, dia ilay voasoratra ao amin’ ny taratasy izay nampitondrainy tany aminy.
12 they proclaimed a fast, —and caused Naboth to sit at the head of the people.
Dia niantso andro fifadian-kanina izy ka nametraka an’ i Nabota teo anatrehan’ ny olona.
13 Then came in the two reckless men, and sat before him, and the men bare witness against him, even against Naboth, before the people, saying, Naboth hath reviled God and king! So they carried him forth, outside the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
Ary niditra ilay roa lahy tena ratsy fanahy ka nipetraka teo anatrehany, dia niampanga an’ i Nabota teo anatrehan’ ny olona ireo ka nanao hoe: Niteny ratsy an’ Andriamanitra sy ny mpanjaka Nabota. Ary nentin’ ny olona nivoaka teny ivelan’ ny tanàna Nabota, dia notorahany vato ka maty.
14 Then sent they unto Jezebel, saying, —Naboth is stoned and is dead.
Dia naniraka tany amin’ i Jezebela izy ireo ka nanao hoe: Efa notoraham-bato Nabota ka maty.
15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned and was dead, that Jezebel said unto Ahab—Rise! take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give thee for silver, for Naboth is not alive, but dead!
Ary rehefa ren’ i Jezebela fa voatora-bato Nabota ka maty, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Ahaba: Mitsangàna, ka alao ho anao ny tanim-boalobok’ i Nabota Jezirelita, izay tsy foiny ho namidy taminao; fa tsy velona intsony Nabota fa efa maty.
16 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab arose, to go down unto the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession thereof.
Ary rehefa ren’ i Ahaba fa efa maty Nabota, dia niainga izy ka nidina nankany amin’ ny tanim-boalobok’ i Nabota Jezirelita mba haka ny tany ho azy.
17 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
Ary ny tenin’ i Jehovah tonga tamin’ i Elia Tisbita ka nanao hoe:
18 Arise! go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, —lo! he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he hath gone down, to take possession thereof.
Miaingà, ka midìna hihaona amin’ i Ahaba, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, izay ao Samaria; indro, ao amin’ ny tanim-boalobok’ i Nabota izy, fa lasa nankao izy mba haka ny tany ho azy.
19 Then shalt thou speak unto him, saying—Thus, saith Yahweh, Hast thou committed murder, and also taken possession? Then shalt thou speak unto him, saying: Thus, saith Yahweh, In the place where the dogs have lapped up the blood of Naboth, shall the dogs lap up thy blood, even thine.
Koa mitenena aminy hoe: Izao no Jazain’ i Jehovah: Efa namono va ianao ka efa naka ho anao koa? Ary ianao dia hiteny aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Ao amin’ ny tany izay nilelafan’ ny alika ny ran’ i Nabota no hilelafan’ ny alika ny rànao, dia ny rànao tokoa.
20 Then said Ahab unto Elijah, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? And he said: I have found [thee]! Because thou hast sold thyself to do the thing that is wicked in the eyes of Yahweh,
Ary hoy Ahaba tamin’ i Elia: Azonao va aho, ry ilay fahavaloko? Ary Elia namaly hoe: Azoko ianao, satria ianao efa nivaro-tena hanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah.
21 Behold me! [saith he] bringing in upon thee, calamity, and I will consume after thee, —and cut off of Ahab, even the meanest, whether shut up or left at large in Israel;
Indro, hahatonga loza aminao Aho ka handringana ny taranakao, ary ho fongotra ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba, na ny voahazona na ny afaka amin’ ny Isiraely.
22 and will deliver up thy house—Like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah, —for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked, and caused, Israel, to sin.
Ary ny taranakao hataoko tahaka ny taranak’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, sy tahaka ny taranak’ i Basa, zanak’ i Ahia, noho ny nampirehetanao ny fahatezerako sy ny nampanotanao ny Isiraely.
23 Moreover also, concerning Jezebel, hath Yahweh spoken, saying, —The dogs, shall eat Jezebel, in the town-land of Jezreel:
Ary ny amin’ i Jezebela koa dia nolazain’ i Jehovah hoe: Ny alika hihinana an’ i Jezebela eny ivelan’ ny màndan’ i Jezirela.
24 Him that dieth, of Ahab, in the city, shall, the dogs, eat, —and, him that dieth in the field, shall, the birds of heaven, eat.
Izay tamingan’ i Ahaba maty ao an-tanàna dia hohanin’ ny alika; ary izay tamingany maty any an-tsaha kosa dia hohanin’ ny voro-manidina.
25 But indeed, there was none like Ahab, who sold himself to do the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —whom Jezebel his wife goaded on;
Fa tsy nisy tahaka an’ i Ahaba, izay nivarotena hanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah, satria nampirisihin’ i Jezebela vadiny izy.
26 so that he did very abominably, in going after the manufactured gods, —according to all which the Amorites had done, whom Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
Ary izy nanao vetaveta loatra tamin’ ny nanarahany ny sampy, dia tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ ny Amorita, izay noroahin’ i Jehovah teo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
27 And it came to pass, when Ahab heard these words, that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, —and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
Ary rehefa ren’ i Ahaba izany teny izany, dia nandriatra ny fitafiany izy ka nitafy lamba fisaonana nataony manolo-koditra sady nifady hanina sy nandry tamin-damba fisaonana ary nijoretra teny am-pandehanana.
28 Then came the word of Yahweh unto Elijah the Tishbite, saying:
Ary ny tenin’ i Jehovah tonga tamin’ i Elia Tisbita ka nanao hoe:
29 Hast thou seen that Ahab hath humbled himself, before me? Because he hath humbled himself before me, I will not bring in the calamity in his days, In the days of his son, will I bring in the calamity upon his house.
Hitanao va ny nanetren’ i Ahaba tena teo anatrehako? Satria nanetry tena teo anatrehako izy, dia tsy hahatonga loza aminy Aho amin’ ny androny; fa any amin’ ny andron’ ny zanany vao hahatonga loza amin’ ny taranany Aho.
