< 1 Kings 21 >

1 And it was after the things these a vineyard it belonged to Naboth the Jezreelite which [was] in Jezreel beside [the] palace of Ahab [the] king of Samaria.
Na rĩrĩ, thuutha ũcio gũkĩgĩa na ũndũ wakoniĩ mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli. Mũgũnda ũcio wa mĩthabibũ warĩ kũu Jezireeli, hakuhĩ na nyũmba ya ũthamaki ya Ahabu mũthamaki wa Samaria.
2 And he spoke Ahab to Naboth - saying - give! to me vineyard your so may it belong to me to a garden of vegetables for it [is] near beside house my and I will give to you in place of it a vineyard good more than it if [it is] good in view your I will give to you money [the] price of this [one].
Nake Ahabu akĩĩra Nabothu atĩrĩ, “He mũgũnda waku wa mĩthabibũ haandage mboga, tondũ ũrĩ hakuhĩ na nyũmba yakwa ya ũthamaki. Nĩngũgũkũũranĩria na mũgũnda ũngĩ wa mĩthabibũ mwega gũkĩra ũyũ, kana ũngĩona arĩ wega, no ngũhe mbeeca ciiganĩte thogora waguo.”
3 And he said Naboth to Ahab far be it to me from Yahweh than to give I [the] inheritance of ancestors my to you.
No Nabothu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Jehova arogiria ngũhe igai rĩa maithe makwa.”
4 And he went Ahab to house his sullen and furious on the word which he had spoken to him Naboth the Jezreelite and he said not I will give to you [the] inheritance of ancestors my and he lay down on bed his and he turned around face his and not he ate food.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ahabu akĩinũka athitĩtie gĩthiithi na arĩ mũrakaru, tondũ Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli nĩamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Ndingĩkũhe igai rĩa maithe makwa.” Agĩkoma ũrĩrĩ wake angʼathĩtie na akĩrega kũrĩa irio.
5 And she came to him Jezebel wife his and she spoke to him why? this [is] spirit your sullen and not you [are] eating food.
Nake Jezebeli mũtumia wake akĩingĩra akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũtukie gĩthiithi? Ũrarega kũrĩa irio nĩkĩ?”
6 And he spoke to her for I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and I said to him give! to me vineyard your for money or if [are] desiring you I will give to you a vineyard in place of it and he said not I will give to you vineyard my.
Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tondũ njĩĩrire Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli atĩrĩ, ‘Nyenderia mũgũnda waku wa mĩthabibũ, kana ũngĩona kwagĩrĩire, ngũhe mũgũnda ũngĩ wa mĩthabibũ handũ haguo.’ No anjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ndingĩkũhe mũgũnda wakwa wa mĩthabibũ.’”
7 And she said to him Jezebel wife his you now are you doing? kingship over Israel arise eat food so it may be good heart your I I will give to you [the] vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Jezebeli mũtumia wake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo ũgwĩka arĩ we mũthamaki wa Isiraeli? Ũkĩra ũrĩe! Kena. Nĩ niĩ ngũkũhe mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũcio Mũjezireeli.”
8 And she wrote letters in [the] name of Ahab and she sealed [them] with seal his and she sent (letters *Q(K)*) to the elders and to the nobles who [were] in city his who dwelt with Naboth.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩandĩka marũa na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ahabu, na akĩmahũũra mũhũũri wake, akĩmatũma kũrĩ athuuri na anene arĩa maatũũranagia na Nabothu itũũra-inĩ rĩake inene.
9 And she wrote in the letters saying proclaim a fast and make sit Naboth at [the] head of the people.
Marũa-inĩ macio aandĩkĩte ũũ: “Anĩrĩrai mũthenya wa kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio, na mũikarĩrie Nabothu handũ ekuoneka, gatagatĩ ka andũ.
10 And make sit two men sons of worthlessness before him and let them testify against him saying you have blessed God and [the] king and take out him and stone him so may he die.
No mũige imaramari igĩrĩ imũngʼetheire, mũciĩre irute ũira wa atĩ nĩarumĩte Ngai na akaruma mũthamaki. Mũcooke mũmuumie nja ya itũũra mũmũhũre na mahiga nyuguto nginya akue.”
11 And they did [the] people of city his the elders and the nobles who [were] the [ones who] dwelt in city his just as she had sent to them Jezebel just as [it was] written in the letters which she had sent to them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio athuuri na anene arĩa maatũũraga itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Nabothu magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jezebeli aathanĩte marũa-inĩ macio aamaandĩkĩire.
12 They proclaimed a fast and they made sit Naboth at [the] head of the people.
Makĩanĩrĩra mũthenya wa kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio, na magĩikarĩria Nabothu handũ ekuoneka, gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ.
13 And they came [the] two the men sons of worthlessness and they sat before him and they testified against him [the] men of worthlessness Naboth before the people saying he has blessed Naboth God and [the] king and they took out him from [the] outside of the city and they stoned him with stones and he died.
Ningĩ imaramari igĩrĩ igĩikara imũngʼetheire, na ikĩruta thitango ya gũũkĩrĩra Nabothu mbere ya andũ, ikiuga atĩrĩ, “Nabothu nĩarumĩte Ngai, na akaruma mũthamaki.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmuumia nja ya itũũra inene, makĩmũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto nginya agĩkua.
14 And they sent to Jezebel saying he has been stoned Naboth and he has died.
Magĩcooka magĩtwara ũhoro kũrĩ Jezebeli, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nabothu nĩmũhũũre na mahiga nyuguto na nĩ mũkuũ.”
15 And it was when heard Jezebel that he had been stoned Naboth and he had died and she said Jezebel to Ahab arise take possession of [the] vineyard of - Naboth the Jezreelite which he refused to give to you for money for not Naboth [is] alive for he has died.
Jezebeli aarĩkia kũigua atĩ Nabothu nĩahũrĩtwo na mahiga nyuguto agakua-rĩ, akĩĩra Ahabu atĩrĩ “Ũkĩra wĩgwatĩre mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli ũcio araregete gũkwenderia. Ndarĩ muoyo, nĩakuĩte.”
16 And it was when heard Ahab that he had died Naboth and he arose Ahab to go down to [the] vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite to take possession of it.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Ahabu aiguire atĩ Nabothu nĩakuĩte, agĩũkĩra, agĩikũrũka akegwatĩre mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu.
17 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Elijah the Tishbite saying.
Na rĩrĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Elija ũrĩa Mũtishibi akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
18 Arise go down to meet Ahab [the] king of Israel who [is] in Samaria there! [he is] in [the] vineyard of Naboth where he has gone down there to take possession of it.
“Ikũrũka ũgatũnge Ahabu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa wathanaga Samaria. Rĩu arĩ mũgũnda-inĩ wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu kũrĩa athiĩte kwĩgwatĩra mũgũnda ũcio ũtuĩke wake.
19 And you will speak to him saying thus he says Yahweh ¿ have you murdered and also have you taken possession? and you will speak to him saying thus he says Yahweh in [the] place where they licked up the dogs [the] blood of Naboth they will lick up the dogs blood your also you.
Mwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Githĩ ndũũragĩte mũndũ na ũkaamũtunya indo ciake?’ Ningĩ ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Handũ harĩa ngui iracũnĩire thakame ya Nabothu-rĩ, hau no ho ngui igaacũnĩra thakame yaku, ĩĩ, yaku wee mwene!’”
20 And he said Ahab to Elijah ¿ have you found me O enemy my and he said I have found [you] because you having sold yourself to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
Nake Ahabu akĩĩra Elija atĩrĩ, “Wee thũ yakwa, anga nĩwangora!” Nake Elija agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩndagũkora, tondũ nĩwĩrutĩire gwĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
21 Here I ([am] about to bring *Q(k)*) to you evil and I will sweep away after you and I will cut off to Ahab [one who] urinates on a wall and shut up and freed in Israel.
‘Na rĩrĩ, nĩngũkũrehere mwanangĩko. Nĩngũniina njiaro ciaku, na niinĩre Ahabu ciana ciothe cia arũme thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, arĩ ngombo kana ũrĩa ũtarĩ ngombo.
22 And I will make house your like [the] house of Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat and like [the] house of Baasha [the] son of Ahijah because of the provocation which you have provoked to anger and you have caused to sin Israel.
Nĩngatũma nyũmba yaku ĩhaane o ta ya Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, na ta ya Baasha mũrũ wa Ahija, tondũ nĩũndakarĩtie na ũgatũma Isiraeli mehie.’
23 And also of Jezebel he has spoken Yahweh saying the dogs they will devour Jezebel in [the] rampart of Jezreel.
“Naguo ũhoro ũkoniĩ Jezebeli, Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Ngui nĩigatambuurangĩra Jezebeli rũthingo-inĩ rwa Jezireeli.’
24 The [one who] dies of Ahab in the city they will devour the dogs and the [one who] dies in the open country they will devour [the] bird[s] of the heavens.
“Andũ a Ahabu arĩa magaakuĩra itũũra-inĩ, makaarĩĩo nĩ ngui. Nao arĩa magaakuĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ makaarĩĩo nĩ nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ.”
25 Certainly not anyone was like Ahab who he sold himself to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh whom she incited him Jezebel wife his.
(Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ kuoneka mũndũ ta Ahabu werutĩire gwĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, aringĩrĩirio nĩ mũtumia wake Jezebeli.
26 And he acted abominably exceedingly by walking after the idols according to all that they had done the Amorite[s] whom he dispossessed Yahweh from before [the] people of Israel.
Mĩtugo yake yarĩ mĩũru mũno nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra mĩhianano ya kũhooywo ta ũrĩa Aamori meekaga, arĩa Jehova aingatire akĩmeheria mbere ya Isiraeli.)
27 And it was when heard Ahab the words these and he tore clothes his and he put sackcloth on body his and he fasted and he lay down in the sackcloth and he went about dejectedly.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Ahabu aiguire ciugo icio, agĩtarũranga nguo ciake, akĩĩhumba nguo ya ikũnia na akĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio. Aakomaga ehumbĩte nguo ya ikũnia na agathiiaga enyiihĩtie.
28 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Elijah the Tishbite saying.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Elija ũrĩa Mũtishibi, akĩũrio atĩrĩ:
29 ¿ Have you seen that he has humbled himself Ahab from to before me because for he has humbled himself from before me not (I will bring *Q(k)*) evil in days his in [the] days of son his I will bring evil on house his.
“Nĩwonete ũrĩa Ahabu enyiihĩtie mbere yakwa? Tondũ we nĩenyiihĩtie, ndikarehe mwanangĩko ũyũ matukũ-inĩ make, no nĩngaũrehere nyũmba yake matukũ-inĩ ma mũriũ.”
