1 Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Yehowa ƒe gbe va na Fia Baasa to Nyagblɔɖila Yehu dzi be,
Then the word of the Lord came to Iehu the sonne of Hanani against Baasha, saying,
2 “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,
Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee captaine ouer my people Israel, and thou hast walked in the way of Ieroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sinne, to prouoke me with their sinnes,
3 eya ta azɔ la, matsrɔ̃ wò kple wò ƒometɔwo abe ale si metsrɔ̃ Yeroboam ƒe dzidzimeviwo ene.
Beholde, I will take away the posteritie of Baasha, and the posteritie of his house, and will make thine house like the house of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat.
4 Wò ƒometɔ siwo aku le dua me la, avuwo aɖu wo eye esiwo aku ɖe gbedzi la, akagawo aɖu wo.”
He that dyeth of Baashas stocke in the citie, him shall the dogs eate: and that man of him which dyeth in the fieldes, shall the foules of the ayre eate.
5 Woŋlɔ nu bubu ɖe sia ɖe si Baasa wɔ kple eƒe kalẽwɔwɔwo ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
And the rest of the actes of Baasha and what he did, and his power, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
6 Baasa ku woɖii ɖe Tirza eye via Ela ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
So Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buryed in Tirzah, and Elah his sonne reigned in his steade.
7 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.
And also by the hande of Iehu the sonne of Hanani the Prophet, came the worde of the Lord to Baasha, and to his house, that he shoulde be like the house of Ieroboam, euen for all the wickednes that he did in the sight of the Lord, in prouoking him with the worke of his hands, and because he killed him.
8 Ela, Baasa ƒe viŋutsu dze fiaɖuɖu gɔme le Yuda fia Asa ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adelia me. Eɖu fia ƒe eve ko.
In the sixe and twentie yeere of Asa king of Iudah began Elah ye sonne of Baasha to reigne ouer Israel in Tirzah, and reigned two yeere.
9 Aʋafia Zimri, ame si kpɔa fia la ƒe tasiaɖamwo ƒe afã dzi la ɖo nugbe ɖe Fia Ela ŋu. Gbe ɖeka la, esi Fia Ela mu aha afã kple afã le Arza, ame si nye fiasãdzikpɔla ƒe aƒe me le Tirza, si nye fiadu la me la,
And his seruant Zimri, captaine of halfe his charets, conspired against him, as he was in Tirzah drinking, til he was drunken in the house of Arza steward of his house in Tirzah.
10 Zimri zɔ tẽe ɖatɔ nue ƒu anyi eye wòku. Nya sia dzɔ le Yuda fia Asa ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe blaeve-vɔ-adrelia me. Zimri tsɔ eɖokui ɖo Israel fiae ɖe eteƒe.
And Zimri came and smote him and killed him, in the seuen and twentie yeere of Asa king of Iudah, and reigned in his stead.
11 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.
And when he was King, and sate on his throne, he slew al the house of Baasha, not leauing thereof one to pisse against a wall, neither of his kinsfolkes nor of his friendes.
12 Baasa ƒe ƒometɔ siawo wuwu na nya si Yehowa gblɔ da ɖi to Nyagblɔɖila Yehu dzi la va eme.
So did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha, according to the word of the Lord which he spake against Baasha by the hande of Iehu the Prophet,
13 Dzɔgbevɔ̃enya sia dzɔ le Baasa kple via Ela ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta elabena wokplɔ Israel de legbawo subɔsubɔ me eye Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ŋutɔŋutɔ.
For all the sinnes of Baasha, and sinnes of Elah his sonne, which they sinned and made Israel to sinne, and prouoked the Lord God of Israel with their vanities.
14 Woŋlɔ nu mamlɛawo tso Ela ƒe fiaɖuɖu ŋu ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
And the rest of the actes of Elah, and all that he did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
15 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.
In the seuen and twentie yeere of Asa King of Iudah did Zimri reigne seuen dayes in Tirzah, and the people was then in campe against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistims.
16 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.
And the people of the hoste heard saye, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slayne the King. Wherefore all Israel made Omri the captaine of the hoste, king ouer Israel that same day, euen in the hoste.
17 Ale Omri kplɔ aʋakɔ si nɔ Gibeton la eye wòɖe to ɖe Tirza si nye Israel ƒe fiadu.
Then Omri went vp from Gibbethon, and all Israel with him, and they besieged Tirzah.
18 Esi Zimri kpɔ be futɔwo xɔ Tirza la, eyi fiasã la me hetɔ dzoe ɖe eɖokui dzi eye wòku ɖe dzo la me.
And when Zimri saw, that the citie was taken, he went into the palace of the Kings house, and burnt himselfe, and the Kings house with fire, and so dyed,
19 Esia va eme elabena eya hã wɔ nu vɔ̃ abe Yeroboam ene. Esubɔ legbawo eye wòkplɔ Israel de nu vɔ̃ me.
For his sinnes which hee sinned, in doing that which is euil in the sight of the Lord, in walking in the way of Ieroboam, and in his sinnes which he did, causing Israel to sinne.
20 Woŋlɔ Zimri ƒe ŋutinya mamlɛa kple eƒe nugbeɖoɖo ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
And the rest of the actes of Zimri, and his treason that hee wrought, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kinges of Israel?
21 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.
Then were the people of Israel deuided into two partes: for halfe the people followed Tibni the sonne of Ginath to make him King, and the other halfe followed Omri.
22 Ke Aʋafia Omri ɖu Tibni dzi. Wowu Tibni ale be ame aɖeke megaʋli fiaɖuƒe la kple Omri o.
But the people that folowed Omri, preuayled against the people that followed Tibni the sonne of Ginath: so Tibni dyed, and Omri reigned.
23 Yuda fia, Asa ɖu fia ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ̃-ɖekɛ esime Omri de asi fiaɖuɖu me le Israel. Omri ɖu fia ƒe ade le Tirza.
In the one and thirtie yeere of Asa King of Iudah bega Omri to reigne ouer Israel, and reigned twelue yeere. Sixe yeere reigned he in Tirzah.
24 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.
And he bought the mountaine Samaria of one Shemer for two talents of siluer, and buylt in the mountaine, and called the name of the citie, which he buylt, after the name of Shemer lord of the mountaine, Samaria.
25 Ke Omri nye nu vɔ̃ wɔla wu fia siwo katã do ŋgɔ nɛ.
But Omri did euil in the eyes of the Lord, and did worse then all that were before him.
26 Esubɔ legbawo abe ale si Yeroboam wɔ ene eye wòkplɔ Israel de legbasubɔsubɔ me.
For he walked in all the way of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, and in his sinnes wherewith he made Israel to sinne in prouoking the Lord God of Israel with their vanities.
27 Woŋlɔ Omri ƒe ŋutinya ɖe Israel fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
And the rest of the actes of Omri, that hee did, and his strength that he shewed, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
28 Esi Omri ku la, woɖii ɖe Samaria eye Via ŋutsu Ahab zu fia ɖe eteƒe.
And Omri slept with his fathers, and was buryed in Samaria: and Ahab his sonne reigned in his stead.
29 Yuda fia, Asa ɖu fia ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-enyi esime Ahab zu fia ɖe Israel dzi. Ahab ɖu fia ƒe blaene-vɔ-eve.
Nowe Ahab the sonne of Omri began to reigne ouer Israel, in the eyght and thirtie yeere of Asa king of Iudah: and Ahab the sonne of Omri reigned ouer Israel in Samaria two and twenty yere.
30 Ahab wɔ nu vɔ̃ wu fofoa Omri gɔ̃ hã; ewɔ nu vɔ̃ wu Israel fia ɖe sia ɖe!
And Ahab the sonne of Omri did worse in ye sight of the Lord then al that were before him.
31 Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, eɖe Yezebel, Sidon fia Etbaal ƒe vinyɔnu eye wòde asi Baal subɔsubɔ me.
For was it a light thing for him to walke in the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, except hee tooke Iezebel also the daughter of Ethbaal King of the Zidonians to wife, and went and serued Baal, and worshipped him?
32 Gbã la, etu gbedoxɔ kple vɔsamlekpui na Baal ɖe Samaria.
Also he reared vp an altar to Baal in the house of Baal, which he had buylt in Samaria.
33 Emegbe la, Ahab li aƒeli bubuwo eye wòwɔ nu vɔ̃ bubu geɖe siwo gado dɔmedzoe na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la wu Israel fia bubu siwo katã do ŋgɔ nɛ.
And Ahab made a groue, and Ahab proceeded, and did prouoke the Lord God of Israel more then all the kings of Israel that were before him.
34 Le esime Ahab nɔ fia ɖum la, ŋutsu aɖe tso Betel, ame si ŋkɔe nye Hiel la gbugbɔ Yeriko tu.

Esia va eme le fiƒode si Yehowa da ɖe du la dzi abe ale si Yosua, Nun ƒe vi la gblɔ ene la nu.
In his dayes did Hiel the Bethelite buylde Iericho: he layed the foundation thereof in Abiram his eldest sonne, and set vp the gates thereof in his yongest sonne Segub, according to the worde of the Lord which he spake by Ioshua the sonne of Nun.
