1 Kings 13
1 And lo! a man of God cam fro Juda, bi the word of the Lord, in to Bethel, while Jeroboam stood on the auter, `and castide encence.
Otu onye nke Chineke si Juda bịa Betel, site nʼokwu nke Onyenwe anyị oge Jeroboam guzo nʼebe ịchụ aja ka ọ chụọ aja.
2 And `the man of God criede ayens the auter, bi the word of the Lord, and seide, Auter! auter! the Lord seith these thingis, Lo! a sone, Josias by name, shal be borun to the hows of Dauid; and he schal offre on thee the preestis of hiye thingis, that brennen now encensis yn thee, and he schal brenne the bonys of men on thee.
O tiri mkpu nʼoke olu megide ebe ịchụ aja ahụ dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị si dị, “Ebe ịchụ aja, ebe ịchụ aja! Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu: ‘A ga-amụ otu nwa nwoke nʼụlọ Devid, aha ya ga-abụ Josaya. Ọ ga-eji ndị nchụaja niile nke ebe dị elu, bụ ndị na-achụ aja nʼelu gị, chụọ aja nʼelu gị. A ga-esurekwa ọkpụkpụ ndị mmadụ ọkụ nʼelu gị.’”
3 And he yaf a signe in that dai, `and seide, This schal be `the signe that the Lord spak, Lo! the auter schal be kit, and the aische which is `there ynne, schal be sched out.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, onye nke Chineke ahụ kwuru okwu banyere ihe ịrịbama ga-emezu. O kwuru sị, “Nke a bụ ihe ịrịbama Onyenwe anyị ji emesi okwu ya ike: Ebe ịchụ aja a ga-agbawa ụzọ abụọ. Ntụ dị nʼelu ya ga-awụsasị nʼala.”
4 And whanne the kyng hadde herd the word of the man of God, which word he hadde cried ayens the auter in Bethel, the kyng helde forth his hond fro the auter, and seide, Take ye hym. And his hond driede, which he hadde holde forth, and he myyte not drawe it ayen to hym silf.
Mgbe eze Jeroboam nụrụ ihe onye nke Chineke ahụ kwuru megide ebe ịchụ aja Betel, o setịpụrụ aka ya site nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ sị, “Jidenụ nwoke a!” Ma aka ahụ ọ setịpụrụ tụgide nwoke ahụ kpọnwụrụ na o nwekwaghị ike iweghachi ya azụ ọzọ.
5 Also the auter was kit, and the aische was sched out of the auter, bi the signe which the man of God bifor seide, in the word of the Lord.
Ọzọkwa, ebe ịchụ aja ahụ gbawara abụọ, ntụ dị nʼelu ya wụsịkwara nʼala dịka ihe ịrịbama nke onye amụma Chineke nyere, site nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị.
6 And the kyng seide to the man of God, Biseche thou the face of thi Lord God, and preie thou for me, that myn hond be restorid to me. And the man of God preiede the face of God; and the hond of the king turnede ayen to hym, and it was maad as it was bifore.
Mgbe ahụ, eze sịrị onye nke Chineke ahụ, “Biko, rịọọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, kpekwara m ekpere ka e nyeghachi m aka m.” Ya mere, onye nke Chineke ahụ rịọrọ Onyenwe anyị site nʼekpere, emekwara ka aka eze dịghachi dịkwa ka ọ dị na mbụ.
7 Sotheli the kyng spak to the man of God, Come thou hoom with me, that thou ete, and Y schal yyue yiftis to thee.
Emesịa, eze gwara onye nke Chineke ahụ okwu sị, “Soro m gaa nʼụlọ m. Aga m enye gị ihe oriri, nyekwa gị onyinye.”
8 And the man of God seide to the kyng, Thouy thou schalt yyue to me the half part of thin hows, Y schal not come with thee, nether Y schal ete breed, nether Y schal drynke watir in this place;
Ma onye nke Chineke ahụ zara eze sị, “Ọ bụrụ na i nye m ọkara ihe niile i nwere, agaghị m eso gị baa nʼime ụlọ gị. Agaghị m erikwa nri gị maọbụ ṅụọ mmiri nʼebe a.
9 `for so it is comaundid to me bi the word of the Lord, comaundinge, Thou schalt not ete breed, nether thou schalt drynke water, nether thou schalt turne ayen bi the weie bi which thou camest.
Nʼihi na-enyere m iwu site nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị, sị, ‘Erila nri, aṅụkwala mmiri, esitekwala ụzọ i si gaa laghachi.’”
10 Therfor he yede bi another weie, and turnede not ayen bi the weie, bi which he cam in to Bethel.
Ya mere, o sitere nʼụzọ ọzọ lawa, nke na-abụghị ụzọ o si bịa Betel.
11 Forsothe sum elde profete dwellide in Bethel, to whom hise sones camen, and telden to hym alle the werkis whiche the man of God hadde do in that dai in Bethel; and thei telden to her fader the wordis whiche he spak to the kyng.
Ma o nwere otu onye amụma bụ agadi bi na Betel. Onye ụmụ ya bịara kọọrọ ihe niile onye nke Chineke ahụ mere nʼụbọchị ahụ na Betel, ha kọkwaara nna ha ihe niile ọ gwara eze.
12 And the fadir of hem seide to hem, Bi what weie yede he? Hise sones schewiden to hym the weie, bi which the man of God yede, that cam fro Juda.
Nna ha jụrụ ha, “Olee ụzọ ọ gara?” Ụmụ ya ndị ikom ziri ya ụzọ nke onye nke Chineke ahụ si Juda gara.
13 And he seide to hise sones, Sadle ye an asse to me. And whanne thei hadden sadlid,
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ụmụ ya ndị ikom, “Jikekwaranụ m ịnyịnya ibu m.” Ha jikekwaara ya ịnyịnya ibu, ọ nọkwasịrị nʼelu ya.
14 he stiede, and yede after the man of God, and foond hym sittyng vndur a terebynte. And he seide to the man of God, Whether thou art the man of God, that camest fro Juda? He answeride, Y am.
Ọ gbasooro onye nke Chineke nʼazụ, ọ hụrụ ya ka ọ nọ ala nʼokpuru osisi ook, Ọ sịrị ya, “Ọ bụ gị bụ onye nke Chineke ahụ si Juda bịa?” Ọ zara, “E, ọ bụ mụ onwe m.”
15 And he seide to hym, Come thou with me hoom, that thou ete breed.
Onye amụma ahụ sịrị ya, “Soro m ka anyị gaa nʼụlọ m, ka i rie nri.”
16 And he seide, Y may not turne ayen, nether come with thee, nether Y schal ete breed, nether Y schal drynke water in this place;
Ma ọ sịrị, “Apụghị m iso gị laghachi azụ, maọbụ rie nri, ma ọ bụkwa ṅụọ mmiri ọbụla nʼebe a.
17 for the Lord spak to me in the word of the Lord, and seide, Thou schalt not ete breed, and thou schalt not drynke water there, nether thou schalt turne ayen bi the weie bi which thou yedist.
Nʼihi na a gwara m site nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị sị, ‘Erikwala nri maọbụ ṅụọ mmiri nʼebe ahụ, maọbụ soro ụzọ ị si gaa lọtakwa.’”
18 Which seide to hym, And Y am a profete lijk thee; and an aungel spak to me bi the word of the Lord, and seide, Lede ayen hym in to thin hows, that he ete breed, and drynke watir. He disseyuede the man of God,
Ma onye nke ọzọ sịrị ya, “Mụ onwe m bụkwa onye amụma dịka gị, mmụọ ozi zikwara m ozi site nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị sị, ‘Kpọrọ ya ka o soro gị laghachi nʼụlọ gị, ka o rie nri, ṅụọkwa mmiri.’” (Ma ọ gwara ya okwu ụgha.)
19 and brouyte him ayen with hym. Therfor he ete breed in his hows, and drank watir.
Ya mere, nwoke nke Chineke ahụ soro ya laghachi rie nri, ṅụọkwa mmiri.
20 And whanne he sat at the table, the word of the Lord was maad to the prophete that brouyte hym ayen;
Ma mgbe ha abụọ nọdụ na-eri ihe na tebul, okwu Onyenwe anyị rutere onye amụma agadi ahụ ntị, bụ onye mere ka ọ lọghachi azụ.
21 and he criede to the man of God that cam fro Juda, and seide, The Lord seith these thingis, For thou obeidist not to the mouth of the Lord, and keptist not the comaundement which thi Lord God comaundide to thee,
Ọ kpọrọ onye nke Chineke ahụ si Juda bịa sị ya, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, ‘Nʼihi na ị nupula isi nʼokwu ọnụ Onyenwe anyị, hapụ idebe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nyere gị.
22 and thou turnedist ayen, and etist breed, and drankist watir in the place in which Y comaundide to thee, that thou schuldist not ete breed, nether schuldist drynke watir, thi deed bodi schal not be borun in to the sepulcre of thi fadris.
Ị laghachikwara nʼebe a, rie nri, ṅụọkwa mmiri, bụ ebe ọ gwara gị sị gị, erila nri, aṅụkwala mmiri. Ya mere, agaghị eli ozu gị nʼala ili nna gị ha.’”
23 And whanne he hadde ete and drunke, the prophete, whom he hadde brouyt ayen, sadlide his asse.
Mgbe onye nke Chineke ahụ risiri nri, ṅụọkwa ihe ọṅụṅụ, ha kwadooro ya ịnyịnya ibu nke onye amụma ahụ kpọghachiri ya azụ.
24 And whanne he hadde go, a lioun foond hym in the weye, and killide hym. And his deed bodi was cast forth in the weie; sotheli the asse stood bisydis hym, and the lioun stood bisidis the deed bodi.
Dịka ọ na-alaghachi, otu ọdụm zutere ya nʼụzọ, dọgbuo ya. Ma ọ hapụrụ ozu ya ka ọ tọgbọrọ nʼokporoụzọ, ma ịnyịnya ibu ya ma ọdụm ahụ dọgburu nwoke ahụ guzokwa nʼakụkụ ozu ya.
25 And lo! men passynge sien the deed bodi cast forth in the weye, and the lyoun stondynge bisidis the deed bodi; and thei camen, and pupplischiden in the citee, in which thilke eeld prophete dwellide.
Ndị mmadụ na-agafe hụrụ ozu ahụ ka ọ tọgbọrọ nʼụzọ, hụkwa ka ọdụm ahụ guzo nʼakụkụ ya. Ndị a gara kọọ akụkọ ihe ha hụrụ nʼụzọ nʼobodo ebe onye amụma agadi ahụ bi.
26 And whanne thilke prophete, that brouyte hym ayen fro the weye, hadde herd this, he seide, It is the man of God, that was vnobedient to the mouth of God; and the Lord bitook hym to the lioun, that brak hym, and killide hym, bi the word of the Lord which he spak to hym.
Mgbe onye amụma ahụ mere ka ọ laghachi azụ nụrụ ihe mere, ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụ onye nke Chineke ahụ nupuru isi nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị. Onyenwe anyị enyefeela ya nʼaka ọdụm, nke dọgburu ma gbukwaa ya, dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị dọrọ ya aka na ntị.”
27 And he seide to hise sones, Sadle ye an asse to me.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ụmụ ya ndị ikom, “Jikekwaranụ m ịnyịnya ibu.” Ha mere otu a.
28 And whanne thei hadden sadlid, and he hadde go, he foond his deed bodi cast forth in the weie, and the asse and the lioun stondinge bisidis the deed bodi; and the lioun eet not the deed bodi, nether hirtide the asse.
Ọ pụrụ gaa chọta ozu nwoke ahụ ka ọ tọgbọrọ nʼụzọ. Ịnyịnya ibu ya na ọdụm ahụ guzokwa nʼakụkụ ozu ahụ. Ọdụm erighị anụ nwoke ahụ, ọ dọgbukwaghị ịnyịnya ibu ahụ.
29 Therfor the profete took the deed bodi of the man of God, and puttide it on the asse; and he turnede ayen, and brouyte it in to the cyte of the eeld prophete, that he schulde biweile hym.
Onye amụma agadi ahụ buliri ozu onye nke Chineke ahụ dọkwasị ya nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ya, buru ya bughachi ya nʼobodo, nʼihi iruru ya ụjụ, nakwa ili ya.
30 And he puttide his deed bodi in his sepulcre, and thei biweiliden him, Alas! alas! my brother!
O liri ozu onye nke Chineke ahụ nʼili nke aka ya. Mgbe o liri ya, ọ kwara akwa sị, “Ewoo nwanna m!”
31 And whanne thei hadden biweilid hym, he seide to hise sones, Whanne Y schal be deed, birie ye me in the sepulcre, in which the man of God is biried; putte ye my bonys bisidis hise bonys.
Mgbe o lisiri ya, ọ gwara ụmụ ya ndị ikom sị, “Mgbe m nwụrụ, lienụ m nʼotu ili a e liri onye nke Chineke; doonụ ọkpụkpụ m ka ọ dịrị nʼakụkụ ọkpụkpụ ya.
32 For sotheli the word schal come, which he bifor seide in the word of the Lord, ayens the auter which is in Bethel, and ayens alle the templis of hiy placis, that ben in the citees of Samarie.
Nʼihi na ozi ahụ niile o ziri site nʼokwu Onyenwe anyị megide ebe ịchụ aja dị na Betel, na megidekwa ebe ụlọ arụsị niile dị nʼebe dị elu nʼobodo Sameria aghaghị imezu.”
33 After these wordis Jeroboam turnede not ayen fro his werste weie, but ayenward of the laste puplis he made preestis of hiye places; who euer wolde, fillide his hond, and he was maad preest of hiy placis.
Nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a niile, Jeroboam esiteghị nʼụzọ ọjọọ ya tụgharịa. Kama ọ gara nʼihu họpụta ndị nchụaja maka ebe niile dị elu site nʼetiti ndị mmadụ efu. Onye ọbụla chọrọ ị bụ onye nchụaja ka o doro nsọ maka ije ozi nʼebe niile dị elu.
34 And for this cause the hows of Jeroboam synnede, and it was distried, and doon awey fro the face of erthe.
Nke a bụ mmehie ezinaụlọ Jeroboam. Ọ bụ ya mere alaeze Jeroboam ji daa, meekwa ka e kpochapụ ya nʼelu ụwa.
