Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va na Fia Baasa to Nyagblɔɖila Yehu dzi be,
2 Because that I raised up you from the dust and I made you a ruler over people my Israel and you have walked - in [the] way of Jeroboam and you have caused to sin people my Israel to provoke to anger me by sins their.
“Meɖe wò tso ke me be, nàɖu fia ɖe nye dukɔ Israel dzi. Ke èto Yeroboam ƒe nu vɔ̃ wɔwɔ ƒe mɔwo dzi. Èna nye dukɔ, Israel wɔ nu vɔ̃ eye wodo dziku nam kple woƒe nu vɔ̃wo,
3 Here I [am] about to sweep away after Baasha and after house his and I will make house your like [the] house of Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat.

4 The [one who] dies of Baasha in the city they will devour the dogs and the [one who] dies of him in the open country they will devour [the] bird[s] of the heavens.
Wò ƒometɔ siwo aku le dua me la, avuwo aɖu wo eye esiwo aku ɖe gbedzi la, akagawo aɖu wo.”
5 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Baasha and [that] which he did and might his ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Israel.
Woŋlɔ nu bubu ɖe sia ɖe si Baasa wɔ kple eƒe kalẽwɔwɔwo ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
6 And he lay down Baasha with ancestors his and he was buried in Tirzah and he became king Elah son his in place of him.
Baasa ku woɖii ɖe Tirza eye via Ela ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
7 And also by [the] hand of Jehu [the] son of Hanani the prophet [the] word of Yahweh it came against Baasha and against house his and on all the evil - which he had done - in [the] eyes of Yahweh to provoke to anger him by [the] work of hands his to be like [the] house of Jeroboam and on that he struck down it.
Nyagblɔɖila Yehu gblɔ nya si tso Yehowa gbɔ, tso Baasa kple eƒe ƒometɔwo ŋu le nu vɔ̃ siwo Baasa wɔ ɖe Yehowa ŋu ta. Edo dɔmedzoe na Yehowa, menye le eya ŋutɔ ƒe nu vɔ̃ ɖeɖe ko ta, abe ale si Yeroboam wɔ le eŋgɔ ene o, ke boŋ le ale si wòwu Yeroboam ƒe ƒometɔwo katã hã ta.
8 In year twenty and six year of Asa [the] king of Judah he became king Elah [the] son of Baasha over Israel in Tirzah two years.
Ela, Baasa ƒe viŋutsu dze fiaɖuɖu gɔme le Yuda fia Asa ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adelia me. Eɖu fia ƒe eve ko.
9 And he conspired on him servant his Zimri [the] commander of half of the chariotry and he in Tirzah [was] drinking drunken [the] house of Arza who [was] over the household in Tirzah.

10 And he came Zimri and he struck down him and he killed him in year twenty and seven of Asa [the] king of Judah and he became king in place of him.

11 And it was when became king he when sat he on throne his he struck down all [the] house of Baasha not he left to him [one who] urinates on a wall and kinsman redeemer his and friend his.
Ewu Fia Baasa ƒe ƒometɔwo katã enumake eye megblẽ ŋutsu ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã ɖi o. Ewu eƒe ƒometɔ siwo mete ɖe eŋu tututu o kple exɔlɔ̃wo gɔ̃ hã.
12 And he destroyed Zimri all [the] house of Baasha according to [the] word of Yahweh which he had spoken against Baasha by [the] hand of Jehu the prophet.
Baasa ƒe ƒometɔ siawo wuwu na nya si Yehowa gblɔ da ɖi to Nyagblɔɖila Yehu dzi la va eme.
13 Because of all [the] sins of Baasha and [the] sins of Elah son his which they sinned and which they caused to sin Israel to provoke to anger Yahweh [the] God of Israel with vanities their.
Dzɔgbevɔ̃enya sia dzɔ le Baasa kple via Ela ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta elabena wokplɔ Israel de legbawo subɔsubɔ me eye Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ŋutɔŋutɔ.
14 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Elah and all that he did ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Israel.
Woŋlɔ nu mamlɛawo tso Ela ƒe fiaɖuɖu ŋu ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
15 In year twenty and seven year of Asa [the] king of Judah he became king Zimri seven days in Tirzah and the people [were] encamped on Gibbethon which [belonged] to the Philistines.
Le Asa, Yuda fia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adrelia me la, Zimri ɖu fia le Tirza ŋkeke adre. Aʋakɔ la ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Gibeton si nye Filistitɔwo ƒe du aɖe la xa.
16 And it heard the people that were encamping saying he has conspired Zimri and also he has struck down the king and they made king all Israel Omri [the] commander of [the] army over Israel on the day that in the camp.
Esime Israelviwo se le asaɖa la me be Zimri ɖo nugbe ɖe fia la ŋu eye wòwui la, wotsɔ Omri, woƒe aʋafia la ɖo fiae gbe ma gbe ke le asaɖa la me.
17 And he went up Omri and all Israel with him from Gibbethon and they laid siege on Tirzah.
Ale Omri kplɔ aʋakɔ si nɔ Gibeton la eye wòɖe to ɖe Tirza si nye Israel ƒe fiadu.
18 And it was when saw Zimri that it was captured the city and he went into [the] fortress of [the] house of the king and he burned over himself [the] house of [the] king with fire and he died.
Esi Zimri kpɔ be futɔwo xɔ Tirza la, eyi fiasã la me hetɔ dzoe ɖe eɖokui dzi eye wòku ɖe dzo la me.
19 On (sins his *Q(K)*) which he sinned by doing the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh by walking in [the] way of Jeroboam and in sin his which he did to cause to sin Israel.
Esia va eme elabena eya hã wɔ nu vɔ̃ abe Yeroboam ene. Esubɔ legbawo eye wòkplɔ Israel de nu vɔ̃ me.
20 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Zimri and conspiracy his which he conspired ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Israel.
Woŋlɔ Zimri ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa kple eƒe nugbeɖoɖo ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
21 Then it was divided the people Israel into the half half of the people it was behind Tibni [the] son of Ginath to make king him and half [was] behind Omri.
Azɔ la, Israel fiaɖuƒe la ma ɖe akpa eve me; akpa ɖeka nɔ Aʋafia Omri dzi eye akpa evelia nɔ Tibni, Ginat ƒe vi dzi.
22 And it prevailed over the people which [was] after Omri the people which [was] after Tibni [the] son of Ginath and he died Tibni and he became king Omri.
Ke Aʋafia Omri ɖu Tibni dzi. Wowu Tibni ale be ame aɖeke megaʋli fiaɖuƒe la kple Omri o.
23 In year thirty and one year of Asa [the] king of Judah he became king Omri over Israel two [plus] ten year[s] in Tirzah he reigned six years.

24 And he bought the hill Samaria from with Shemer for two talents silver and he built the hill and he called [the] name of the city which he built on [the] name of Shemer [the] owner of the hill Samaria.
Eƒle Samaria togbɛ la le Semer si hena klosalo kilogram blaadre eye wòtso du ɖe edzi. Etsɔ Semer, ame si si wòƒle togbɛ la le la ƒe ŋkɔ na du la be Samaria.
25 And he did Omri the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he did evil more than all [those] who [were] before him.
Ke Omri nye nu vɔ̃ wɔla wu fia siwo katã do ŋgɔ nɛ.
26 And he walked in all [the] way of Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat (and in sin his *Q(K)*) which he caused to sin Israel to provoke to anger Yahweh [the] God of Israel with vanities their.
Esubɔ legbawo abe ale si Yeroboam wɔ ene eye wòkplɔ Israel de legbasubɔsubɔ me.

Woŋlɔ Omri ƒe ŋutinya ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
28 And he lay down Omri with ancestors his and he was buried in Samaria and he became king Ahab son his in place of him.
Esi Omri ku la, woɖii ɖe Samaria eye Via ŋutsu Ahab zu fia ɖe eteƒe.
29 And Ahab [the] son of Omri he became king over Israel in year thirty and eight year of Asa [the] king of Judah and he reigned Ahab [the] son of Omri over Israel in Samaria twenty and two year[s].
Yuda fia, Asa ɖu fia ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-enyi esime Ahab zu fia ɖe Israel dzi. Ahab ɖu fia ƒe blaene-vɔ-eve.

32 And he set up an altar to Baal [the] house of Baal which he built in Samaria.

33 And he made Ahab Asherah pole and he increased Ahab to do to provoke to anger Yahweh [the] God of Israel more than all [the] kings of Israel who they were before him.
