1 Kings 13
1 And there! - a man of God he came from Judah by [the] word of Yahweh to Beth-el and Jeroboam [was] standing at the altar to make smoke.
Awurade hyɛɛ Onyame onipa bi ma ɔkɔɔ Bet-El, na ɔduruu hɔ ɛberɛ a na Yeroboam rekɔ afɔrebukyia no ho akɔbɔ afɔdeɛ.
2 And he called out on the altar by [the] word of Yahweh and he said O altar altar thus he says Yahweh here! a son [is] about to be born to [the] house of David [will be] Josiah name his and he will sacrifice on you [the] priests of the high places who make smoke on you and bones of humankind people will burn on you.
Na ɔfiri Awurade ɔhyɛ nsɛm mu teaam guu afɔrebukyia no sɛ, “Ao, afɔrebukyia! Afɔrebukyia! Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: ‘Wɔbɛwo ɔbabarima bi a wɔbɛto no edin Yosia ato Dawid fie, na wo so na ɔde asɔfoɔ a wɔfiri asɔreeɛ so ha a wɔhye aduhwam ne nnipa nnompe no bɛbɔ afɔdeɛ!’”
3 And he gave on the day that a sign saying this [is] the sign which he has spoken Yahweh here! the altar [is] about to be torn apart and it will be poured out the fatty ash which [is] on it.
Ɛda no ara, Onyankopɔn onipa no yɛɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ, na ɔkaa sɛ, “Yei ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a Awurade ada no adi. Afɔrebukyia no mu bɛpae mmienu, na nsõ a ɛgu soɔ no ahwie agu.”
4 And it was when heard the king [the] word of [the] man of God which he called out on the altar at Beth-el and he stretched out Jeroboam hand his from at the altar saying - seize him and it dried up hand his which he had stretched out on him and not he was able to bring back it to himself.
Ɔhene Yeroboam bo fuu Onyame onipa yi sɛ wakasa atia afɔrebukyia yi. Enti ɔtenee ne nsa wɔ ne so, teaam sɛ, “Monkyere no!” Nanso, ne nsa a ɔtenee wɔ ɔbarima no so no senseneeɛ a wantumi anyɛ ho hwee.
5 And the altar it was torn apart and it was poured out the fatty ash from the altar according to the sign which he had given [the] man of God by [the] word of Yahweh.
Na afɔrebukyia no mu paee mmienu, na nsõ a ɛgu so no hwie guiɛ, sɛdeɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a Onyankopɔn onipa nam Awurade ɔhyɛ nsɛm so daa no adi kyerɛeɛ no.
6 And he answered the king and he said - to [the] man of God entreat please [the] face of Yahweh God your and pray for me so may it come back hand my to me and he entreated [the] man of God [the] face of Yahweh and it came back [the] hand of the king to him and it was as at the former [time].
Afei, ɔhene no srɛɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no sɛ, “Srɛ Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, ma me na me nsa no nnya ahoɔden.” Enti, Onyankopɔn onipa no srɛɛ Awurade maa no, na ɔhene no nsa nyaa ahoɔden ma ɛyɛɛ sɛdeɛ na ɛteɛ kane no.
7 And he spoke the king to [the] man of God come! with me the house towards and sustain! so let me give to you a gift.
Afei, ɔhene no ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no sɛ, “Ma yɛnkɔ fie, na kɔdidi, na mɛma wo akyɛdeɛ bi.”
8 And he said [the] man of God to the king if you will give to me half of household your not I will go with you and not I will eat bread and not I will drink water in the place this.
Nanso, Onyankopɔn onipa no buaa no sɛ, “Mpo, sɛ wode wʼagyapadeɛ mu fa bɛkyɛ me koraa a, me ne wo renkɔ, na burodo nso, merenni na manom nsuo wɔ ha.
9 For thus - he commanded me by [the] word of Yahweh saying not you must eat bread and not you must drink water and not you must return by the way which you went.
Awurade asɛm so na wɔnam hyɛɛ me sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ wodi burodo anaa wonom nsuo wɔ hɔ. Afei, nsane mfa ɛkwan a wofaa so kɔɔ Bet-El no so.’”
10 And he went by a way another and not he returned by the way which he had come by it to Beth-el.
Enti, ɔfiri Bet-El faa ɛkwan foforɔ so, sɛ ɔrekɔ efie.
11 And a prophet one old [was] dwelling in Beth-el and he came son his and he recounted to him every deed which he had done [the] man of God - this day in Beth-el the words which he had spoken to the king and they recounted them to father their.
Na ɛbaa sɛ na odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa bi te Bet-El. Ne mmammarima bɛkaa deɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no ayɛ wɔ Bet-El da no nyinaa kyerɛɛ no. Afei, wɔkaa asɛm a waka akyerɛ ɔhene no nyinaa, kyerɛɛ wɔn agya no.
12 And he spoke to them father their where? this [is] the way [which] he went and they had seen sons his the way which he had gone [the] man of God who he had come from Judah.
Odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Na ɔfaa he?” Na ne mmammarima no kyerɛɛ no kwan a Onyankopɔn onipa no faa so kɔeɛ.
13 And he said to sons his saddle for me the donkey and they saddled for him the donkey and he rode on it.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ ne mmammarima no sɛ, “Monhyehyɛ afunumu no mma me ntɛm.” Na wɔhyehyɛɛ afunumu no maa no no, ɔhuri tenaa ne so
14 And he went after [the] man of God and he found him sitting under the oak and he said to him ¿ [are] you [the] man of God who you came from Judah and he said I [am].
tii Onyankopɔn onipa no. Ɔkɔtoo no sɛ ɔte odum bi ase, na odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no bisaa no sɛ, “Wo ne Onyankopɔn onipa a wofiri Yuda no anaa?” Ɔbuaa no sɛ, “Aane, me a.”
15 And he said to him come with me the house towards and eat bread.
Afei, odiyifoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ma yɛnkɔ efie, na kɔdidi.”
16 And he said not I am able to turn back with you and to go with you and not I will eat bread and not I will drink with you water in the place this.
Onyankopɔn onipa no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Merentumi nsane mʼakyi. Menni ho ɛkwan sɛ medidi anaa menom nsuo wɔ ha.
17 For a word [was] to me by [the] word of Yahweh not you must eat bread and not you must drink there water not you must return to go by the way which you went by it.
Awurade hyɛɛ me sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ wodi aduane biara anaa wonom nsuo ɛberɛ a wowɔ hɔ, anaa wofa ɛkwan a wofaa so kɔɔ hɔ no so sane wʼakyi.’”
18 And he said to him also I [am] a prophet like you and an angel it has spoken to me by [the] word of Yahweh saying bring back him with you to house your so he may eat bread so he may drink water he lied to him.
Odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no buaa sɛ, “Me nso, meyɛ odiyifoɔ sɛ wo ara. Na ɔbɔfoɔ bi kaa Awurade asɛm kyerɛɛ me sɛ, ‘Fa no sane bra wo fie, na ɔmmɛdidi na ɔnnom nsuo.’” Nanso na odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no redaadaa no.
19 And he went back with him and he ate bread in house his and he drank water.
Enti, Onyankopɔn onipa no ne no sane kɔeɛ, kɔdidi nomee wɔ ne fie.
20 And it was they [were] sitting to the table. And it came [the] word of Yahweh to the prophet who he had brought back him.
Ɛberɛ a wɔte didipono ho redidi no, nkra firi Awurade nkyɛn baa odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no so.
21 And he called out to [the] man of God who he had come from Judah saying thus he says Yahweh because for you have been disobedient to [the] mouth of Yahweh and not you have kept the command which he commanded you Yahweh God your.
Ɔteaam guu Onyankopɔn onipa a ɔfiri Yuda no so sɛ, “Sei na Awurade ka: Woabu Awurade asɛm so, na woanni ahyɛdeɛ a Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, hyɛɛ wo no so.
22 And you went back and you ate bread and you drank water in the place which he spoke to you may not you eat bread and may not you drink water not it will go corpse your to [the] grave of ancestors your.
Wosane baa ha bɛdii aduane, nom nsuo, nanso ɔka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ nni hwee, nnom hwee. Esiane yei enti, wɔrensie wʼamu wɔ wʼagyanom damena mu.”
23 And it was after ate he bread and after drank he and he saddled for him the donkey for the prophet whom he had brought back him.
Na Onyankopɔn onipa no didi nom wieeɛ no, odiyifoɔ no hyehyɛɛ nʼafunumu no maa no,
24 And he went and it met him a lion on the way and it killed him and it was corpse his thrown down in the road and the donkey [was] standing beside it and the lion [was] standing beside the corpse.
na Onyankopɔn onipa no sii ɛkwan so bio. Na ɔrekɔ no ara, gyata bi ba bɛkumm no. Nʼamu no daa ɛkwan mu a, na afunumu no ne gyata no gyinagyina ho.
25 And there! men [were] passing by and they saw the corpse thrown down in the road and the lion standing beside the corpse and they went and they spoke in the city which the prophet old [was] dwelling in it.
Nnipa ba bɛtoo so sɛ amu no da ɛkwan mu a gyata no gyina ho. Enti, wɔkɔbɔɔ amaneɛ wɔ Bet-El baabi a odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no te hɔ.
26 And he heard the prophet who he had brought back him from the way and he said [is] [the] man of God that who he was disobedient to [the] mouth of Yahweh and he has given him Yahweh to the lion and it has mauled him and it has killed him according to [the] word of Yahweh which he spoke to him.
Ɛberɛ a odiyifoɔ akɔkoraa no tee asɛm no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn onipa no a wanni Awurade ahyɛdeɛ so no. Awurade ama nʼasɛm no aba mu sɛ ɔmaa gyata to hyɛɛ no so, kumm no.”
27 And he spoke to sons his saying saddle for me the donkey and they saddled [it].
Na odiyifoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ ne mmammarima no sɛ, “Monhyehyɛ afunumu no mma me.” Na wɔhyehyɛɛ afunumu no.
28 And he went and he found corpse his thrown down in the road and [the] donkey and the lion [were] standing beside the corpse not it had eaten the lion the corpse and not it had mauled the donkey.
Ɔkɔeɛ kɔhunuu sɛ amu no da ɛkwan mu. Na afunumu no ne gyata no da so gyinagyina ne ho a, gyata no nwee amu no, nto nhyɛɛ afunumu no nso so.
29 And he picked up the prophet [the] corpse of [the] man of God and he placed him to the donkey and he brought back him and he came to [the] city of the prophet old to mourn and to bury him.
Enti, odiyifoɔ no faa Onyankopɔn onipa no amu no de no too nʼafunumu no so, sane de no kɔɔ kurom, kɔsuu no, siee no.
30 And he placed corpse his in own grave his and people mourned on him alas! O brother my.
Ɔde amu no too nʼankasa ne damena mu, firii awerɛhoɔ mu, suu no sɛ, “Ao, me nua!”
31 And it was after buried he him and he said to sons his saying at death my and you will bury me in the grave which [the] man of God [is] buried in it beside bones his place bones my.
Akyire yi, odiyifoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ ne mmammarima no sɛ, “Sɛ mɛwu a, monsie me wɔ damena a wɔasie Onyankopɔn onipa wɔ mu no mu. Momfa me nnompe ngu ne nnompe ho.
32 For certainly it will happen the word which he called out by [the] word of Yahweh on the altar which [is] in Beth-el and on all [the] houses of the high places which [are] in [the] cities of Samaria.
Na asɛm a Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnka ntia afɔrebukyia a ɛwɔ Bet-El ne abosomfie no a ɛwowɔ Samaria nkuro so no, ɛbɛba mu.”
33 After the matter this not he turned back Jeroboam from way his evil and he returned and he appointed from [the] ends of the people priests of high places the [one] desiring he filled hand his and he may be priests of high places.
Nanso, yei akyi koraa no, Yeroboam annane ne ho amfiri nʼakwammɔne no so. Ɔkɔɔ so yii asɔfoɔ firi nnipa no mu. Obiara a ɔpɛ no, ɔtumi yɛɛ ɔsɔfoɔ wɔ abosomfie hɔ.
34 And it became by the matter this [the] sin of [the] house of Jeroboam and to annihilate [it] and to destroy [it] from on [the] surface of the ground.
Yei bɛyɛɛ bɔne kɛseɛ, na ɛnam so sɛee Yeroboam ahemman, ma ne fiefoɔ nyinaa wuwuiɛ.
