< 2 Kings 3 >

1 Forsothe Joram, sone of Achab, regnede on Israel, in Samarie, in the eiytenthe yeer of Josephat, kyng of Juda. And he regnede twelue yeer,
Joramu, mwanakomana waAhabhu akava mambo weIsraeri muSamaria mugore regumi namasere raJehoshafati mambo weJudha, uye akatonga kwamakore gumi namaviri.
2 and he dide yuel bifor the Lord, but not as his fader and modir;
Akaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha, asi haana kuita sezvakaita baba vake namai vake. Akabvisa dombo rinoera raBhaari rakanga raitwa nababa vake.
3 for he took awei the ymagis of Baal, whiche his fadir hadde maad, netheles in the synnes of Jeroboam, sone of Nabath, that made Israel to do synne, `he cleuyde, and yede not awei fro tho.
Kunyange zvakadaro, akanamatira kuzvivi zvaJerobhoamu mwanakomana waNebhati, zvaakaita kuti Israeri iite, iye haana kubva kwazviri.
4 Forsothe Mesa, kyng of Moab, nurschide many beestis, and paiede to the kyng of Israel an hundrid thousynde of lambren, and an hundrid thousynde of wetheris, with her fleesis.
Zvino Mesha mambo weMoabhu aipfuwa makwai, uye aifanira kupa mambo weIsraeri makwayana anokwana zviuru zana namakushe amakondobwe anokwana zviuru zana.
5 And whanne Achab was deed, he brak the boond of pees, which he hadde with the kyng of Israel.
Asi mushure mokufa kwaAhabhu, mambo weMoabhu akamukira mambo weIsraeri.
6 Therfor kyng Joram yede out of Samarie in that dai, and noumbride al Israel.
Saka panguva iyoyo, Mambo Jehoramu akabva kuSamaria akaunganidza vaIsraeri vose.
7 And he sente to Josephat, kyng of Juda, and seide, The kyng of Moab yede awei fro me; come thou with me ayens him to batel. Which Josephat answeride, Y schal stie; he that is myn, is thin; my puple is thi puple; and myn horsis ben thin horsis.
Akatumirawo shoko kuna Jehoshafati mambo weJudha achiti, “Mambo weMoabhu andimukira. Ungada kuenda neni kundorwa neMoabhu here?” Iye akapindura akati, “Ndichaenda newe. Ini ndakangoita sewe, navanhu vangu sevakowo, mabhiza angu samabhiza ako.”
8 And he seide, Bi what weie schulen we stie? And he answeride, Bi the deseert of Ydumee.
Akamubvunza akati, “Tichandovavamba nenzira ipi?” Iye akapindura akati, “NomuRenje reEdhomu.”
9 Therfor the kyng of Israel, and the kyng of Juda, and the kyng of Edom, yeden forth, and cumpassiden bi the weie of seuene daies; and `watir was not to the oost, and to the beestis, that sueden hem.
Saka mambo weIsraeri akaenda namambo weJudha pamwe chete namambo weEdhomu. Mushure mokufamba vachipoterera kwamazuva manomwe, varwi vakapererwa nemvura yavo, neyezvipfuwo zvavaiva nazvo.
10 And the kyng of Israel seide, Alas! alas! alas! the Lord hath gaderide vs thre kyngis to bitake vs in the hond of Moab.
Mambo weIsraeri akati, “Haiwa! Heya Jehovha atidaidza isu madzimambo matatu pamwe chete kungozotipa hake kuvaMoabhu?”
11 And Josephat seide, Whether ony prophete of the Lord is here, that we biseche the Lord bi hym? And oon of the seruauntis of the kyng of Israel answeride, Elisee, the sone of Saphat, is here, that schedde watir on the hondis of Elie.
Asi Jehoshafati akamubvunza akati, “Hapana muprofita waJehovha here pano, kuti tibvunze Jehovha nokwaari?” Muranda wamambo weIsraeri akati, “Pana Erisha mwanakomana waShafati. Aisimbosuridzira mvura pamaoko aEria.”
12 And Josephat seide, Is the word of the Lord at hym? Whiche seiden, `It is. And the kyng of Israel, and Josephat, kyng of Juda, and the kyng of Edom, yeden doun to hym.
Jehoshafati akati, “Shoko raJehovha riri paari.” Saka mambo weIsraeri naJehoshafati namambo weEdhomu vakaburuka vakaenda kwaari.
13 Forsothe Elise seide to the kyng of Israel, What is to me and to thee? Go thou to the prophetis of thi fadir and of thi modir. And the kyng of Israel seide to hym, Whi hath the Lord gaderid these thre kyngis, to bitake hem into the hondis of Moab?
Erisha akati kuna mambo weIsraeri, “Chiiko chandingaita nemi? Endai kuvaprofita vababa venyu navaprofita vamai venyu.” Mambo weIsraeri akapindura akati, “Kwete, nokuti ndiJehovha akatidaidza isu madzimambo matatu tose kuti azotipa kuvaMoabhu.”
14 And Elisee seide to hym, The Lord of oostis lyueth, in whos siyt Y stonde, if Y were not aschamed of the cheer of Josephat, king of Juda, treuli Y hadde not perseyued, nethir Y hadde biholde thee.
Erisha akati, “Zvirokwazvo naJehovha Wamasimba Ose mupenyu, wandinoshumira, dai ndanga ndisingaremekedzi Jehoshafati mambo weJudha vari pano, handaimbokutarisai kana kukuonai.
15 Now forsothe brynge ye to me a sautrere. And whanne the sautrere song, the hond of the Lord was maad on hym, and he seide, The Lord seith these thingis,
Asi zvino uyai nomuridzi worudimbwa kwandiri.” Muridzi worudimbwa paakanga achiridza, ruoko rwaJehovha rwakauya pamusoro paErisha,
16 Make ye the wombe, ether depthe, of this stronde dichis and dichis.
akati, “Zvanzi naJehovha: Itai kuti mupata uyu uzare namakoronga.
17 For the Lord seith these thingis, Ye schulen not se wynd, nethir reyn, and this depthe schal be fillid with watris, and ye schulen drynke, and youre meynees, and youre beestis.
Nokuti zvanzi naJehovha: Hamusi kuzoona mhepo kana mvura, kunyange zvakadaro, mupata uyu uchazadzwa nemvura, uye imi, nemombe dzenyu nedzimwe mhuka dzenyu muchanwamo.
18 And this is litil in the siyt of the Lord. Ferthermore also he schal bitake Moab in to youre hondis;
Chinhu ichi chakareruka pamberi paJehovha; achaisawo Moabhu kwamuri.
19 and ye schulen smyte ech strengthid citee, and ech chosun citee, and ye schulen kitte doun ech tre berynge fruyt, and ye schulen stoppe alle the wellis of watris, and ye schulen hile with stonys ech noble feeld.
Muchaparadza guta rimwe nerimwe rakakomberedzwa norusvingo uye namaguta ose makuru. Muchatemera pasi muti mumwe nomumwe wakanaka, mugotsindira matsime ose, uye muchakanganisa namabwe munda mumwe nomumwe wakanaka.”
20 Therfor it was doon eerli, whanne sacrifice is wont to be offrid, and, lo! watris camen bi the weie of Edom, and the lond was fillid with watris.
Chifumi chamangwana, nenguva dzinenge dzokupa chibayiro, tarirai, mvura yakayerera ichibva kwakadziva kuEdhomu! Uye nyika yakazara nemvura.
21 Sotheli alle men of Moab herden, that kyngis hadden stied to fiyte ayens hem; `and men of Moab clepiden togidere alle men, that weren gird with girdil aboue, and thei stoden in the termes.
Zvino vaMoabhu vose vakanga vanzwa kuti madzimambo akanga auya kuzorwa navo; saka murume mumwe nomumwe, mudiki nomukuru, aigona kutakura zvombo akadaidzwa uye vakandogariswa kumuganhu.
22 And men of Moab risiden ful eerli, and whanne the sunne was risun thanne euen ayens the watris, thei sien the watris reed as blood euene ayens.
Vakati vachimuka mangwanani vakaona zuva richipenya pamusoro pemvura. KuvaMoabhu vaiva kuno rumwe rutivi, mvura yakanga yakatsvuka seropa.
23 And thei seiden, It is the blood of swerd, `that is, sched out bi swerd; kyngis fouyten ayens hem silf, and thei ben slayn togider; now go thou, Moab, to the prey.
Vakati, “Iropa iro! Madzimambo ayo anenge arwa akaurayana. Zvino imi vaMoabhu endai munopamba!”
24 And thei yeden in to the castels of Israel; forsothe Israel roos, and smoot Moab, and thei fledden bifor men of Israel. Therfor thei that hadden ouercome, camen, and smytiden Moab, and destrieden cytees;
Asi vaMoabhu vakati vasvika kumusasa weIsraeri, vaIsraeri vakavarwisa kusvikira vatiza. Ipapo vaIsraeri vakapinda munyika vakauraya vaMoabhu.
25 and alle men sendynge stoonys filliden ech beste feeld, and stoppiden alle the wellis of watris, and kittiden doun alle trees berynge fruyt, so that oneli `wallis maad of erthe weren left; and the citee was cumpassid of men settinge engynes, and was smytun bi greet part.
Vakaparadza maguta, uye murume mumwe nomumwe akapotsera mabwe pamunda woga woga wakanaka kusvikira wafukidzwa namabwe. Vakatsindira matsime ose uye vakatema muti wose wakanga wakanaka. Kirihareseti chete ndiro rakasiyiwa riine mabwe aro, asi varume vaiva nezvimviriri vakarikomba vakarirwisawo.
26 And whanne the kyng of Moab hadde seyn this, that is, that the enemyes hadden the maistrie, he took with hym seuene hundrid men drawynge swerdis, that thei shulden breke in to the kyng of Edom; and thei myyten not.
Mambo weMoabhu akati aona kuti akundwa, akatora varume mazana manomwe vaiva neminondo kuti varwise vaende kuna Mambo weEdhomu, asi vakakundikana.
27 And he took his firste gendrid sone, that schulde regne for hym, and offride brent sacrifice on the wal; and greet indignacioun was maad in Israel; and anoon thei yeden awei fro hym, and turneden ayen in to her lond.
Ipapo akatora dangwe rake, aifanira kumutevera paushe, akamupa sechibayiro parusvingo rweguta. Vakatsamwira vaIsraeri zvikuru; uye ivo vakabva kwaari vakadzokera kunyika yavo.
