1 Athamaki 16
1 Ningĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinya kũrĩ Jehu mũrũ wa Hanani gĩa gũũkĩrĩra Baasha, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
Then came the word of the Lord to Jehu the son of Chanani against Ba'sha, saying,
2 “Ndakũrutire kuuma rũkũngũ-inĩ ngĩgũtua mũtongoria wa andũ akwa a Isiraeli, no wee ũkĩrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre ya Jeroboamu, na ũgĩtũma andũ akwa a Isiraeli meehie, makĩndakaria nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao.
Forasmuch as I lifted thee up out of the dust, and I set thee as prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jerobo'am, and hast induced my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins:
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngirie kũniina Baasha na nyũmba yake, na nĩngatũma nyũmba yaku ĩtuĩke ta ĩrĩa ya Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati.
Behold, I will sweep out after Ba'sha, and after his house; and I will render thy house like the house of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat;
4 Ngui nĩikarĩa andũ a Baasha arĩa magaakuĩra itũũra-inĩ inene, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ irĩe arĩa magaakuĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ.”
Him that dieth of Ba'sha in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth of his in the field shall the fowls of the heavens eat.
5 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Baasha, na ũrĩa eekire o na marĩa aahingirie-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
And the rest of the acts of Ba'sha, and what he did, and his mighty deeds, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
6 Baasha akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, na agĩthikwo kũu Tiriza. Nake mũriũ Ela agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And Ba'sha slept with his fathers, and was buried in Thirzah: and Elah his son became king in his stead.
7 O na ningĩ kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinya kũrĩ mũnabii Jehu, mũrũ wa Hanani, gĩkoniĩ Baasha na nyũmba yake, tondũ wa waganu wake wothe ũrĩa eekĩte maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, akamũrakaria nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa eekĩte, na nĩ ũndũ wa kũhaana ta nyũmba ya Jeroboamu, o na ningĩ tondũ wa kũmĩniina.
And also by the hand of Jehu the son of Chanani, the prophet, came the word of the Lord against Ba'sha, and against his house, both for all the evil that he did in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke him to anger with the work of his hands, thus being like the house of Jerobo'am; and because he had killed him.
8 Mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtandatũ wa Asa, mũthamaki wa Juda, nĩguo Ela mũrũ wa Baasha aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, agĩthamaka arĩ Tiriza mĩaka ĩĩrĩ.
In the twenty and sixth year of Assa the king of Judah became Elah the son of Ba'sha king over Israel in Thirzah, [for] two years.
9 Nake Zimuri, ũmwe wa anene ake, ũrĩa waathaga nuthu ya ngaari ciake cia ita, agĩciirĩra ũrĩa ekũmũũkĩrĩra. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Ela aarĩ Tiriza, akĩnyua njoohi mũciĩ kwa Ariza ũrĩa warĩ mũrori wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki kũu Tiriza.
And there conspired against him his servant Zimri, captain of half the chariots, as he was in Thirzah, drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza, who was set over the house in Thirzah.
10 Zimuri agĩtoonya kuo, akĩmũgũtha, akĩmũũraga mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda. Nake agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah, and became king in his stead.
11 Aambĩrĩria gũthamaka o ro ũguo, na agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene-rĩ, akĩũraga andũ a nyũmba ya Baasha othe. Ndaatigirie mũndũ mũrũme o na ũmwe, arĩ mũndũ wao kana mũrata.
And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he slew all the house of Ba'sha: he left him not a single male, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Zimuri akĩniina nyũmba yothe ya Baasha, kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio na kanua ka mũnabii Jehu gĩa gũũkĩrĩra Baasha.
Thus did Zimri exterminate all the house of Ba'sha, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken against Ba'sha by the agency of Jehu the prophet,
13 Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa mothe Baasha na mũriũ Ela meekĩte na magatũma andũ a Isiraeli mehie, na makĩrakaria Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli, nĩ ũndũ wa mĩhianano yao ya kũhooywo ĩtaarĩ kĩene.
For all the sins of Ba'sha, and the sins of Elah his son, by which they had sinned, and by which they had induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
14 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Ela na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
15 Mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda, Zimuri nĩathamakire kũu Tiriza mĩthenya mũgwanja. Mbũtũ cia ita ciakĩte kambĩ hakuhĩ na Gibethoni, itũũra rĩa Afilisti.
In the twenty and seventh year of Assa the king of Judah did Zimri reign seven days in Thirzah: and the people were encamped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.
16 Nao andũ a Isiraeli maarĩ kũu kambĩ makĩigua atĩ Zimuri nĩaciirĩire mũthamaki na akamũũraga. Mũthenya o ro ũcio, marĩ o kũu kambĩ makĩanĩrĩra atĩ Omuri ũrĩa warĩ mũnene wa ita nĩwe mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
And when the people that were encamped heard it said, Zimri hath conspired, and hath also slain the king: all Israel made 'Omri, the captain of the army, king over Israel on that day in the camp.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Omuri na andũ a Isiraeli othe arĩa maarĩ hamwe nake makĩehera Gibethoni na makĩrigiicĩria itũũra inene rĩa Tiriza marĩtahe.
And 'Omri went up, and all Israel with him from Gibbethon, and they besieged Thirzah.
18 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Zimuri onire atĩ itũũra inene nĩrĩanyiitwo-rĩ, agĩtoonya gĩikaro-inĩ gĩa kwĩgitĩra kĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, agĩgĩcina na mwaki arĩ kuo thĩinĩ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩkua,
And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was captured, that he went into the strong-hold of the king's house, and burnt the king's house over him with fire, and he died;
19 nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa eekĩte, ageeka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na gũthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya Jeroboamu o na mehia marĩa eekĩte agatũma Isiraeli meehie.
For his sins which he had sinned, in doing what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, to walk in the way of Jerobo'am, and in his sin which he did, to induce Israel to sin.
20 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Zimuri, o na maũndũ ma ũremi marĩa eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
And the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his conspiracy that he contrived, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ a Isiraeli magĩatũkana ikundi igĩrĩ, nuthu ĩmwe makĩrũmĩrĩra Tibini mũrũ wa Ginathu atuĩke mũthamaki, nayo nuthu ĩyo ĩngĩ makĩrũmĩrĩra Omuri.
At that time were the people of Israel divided into two parts: one half of the people followed Thibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and the other half followed 'Omri.
22 No rĩrĩ, arũmĩrĩri a Omuri magĩtooria arũmĩrĩri a Tibini mũrũ wa Ginathu; Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Tibini agĩkua, nake Omuri agĩtuĩka mũthamaki.
But the people that followed 'Omri prevailed against the people that followed Thibni the son of Ginath: and Thibni [also] died, and 'Omri became king.
23 Mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ũmwe wa Asa mũthamaki wa Juda, nĩguo Omuri aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nake agĩthamaka mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, ĩtandatũ yayo aathamakire arĩ Tiriza.
In the thirty and first year of Assa the king of Judah became 'Omri king over Israel, [for] twelve years; in Thirzah he reigned six years.
24 Nake akĩgũra karĩma ga Samaria kuuma kũrĩ Shemeru na taranda igĩrĩ cia betha, na agĩaka itũũra inene hau karĩma igũrũ, akĩrĩĩta Samaria, arĩĩtanĩtie na Shemeru ũrĩa wakoretwo arĩ mwene karĩma kau.
And he bought the mount Samaria, of Shemer for two talents of silver, and built on the mount, and called the name of the city which he had built, after the name of Shemer, the Lord of the mount, Samaria.
25 No rĩrĩ, Omuri nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, akĩĩhia makĩria ya andũ othe arĩa maarĩ mbere yake.
And 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and did worse than all that were before him.
26 Nĩathiire na mĩthiĩre yothe ya Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, na mehia-inĩ make marĩa maatũmire andũ a Isiraeli meehie; nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩrakaria Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nĩ ũndũ wa ngai ciao cia mĩhianano yao ya kũhooywo ĩtarĩ kĩene.
And he walked in all the way of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he induced Israel to sin, to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger with their vanities.
27 Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Omuri, ũrĩa eekire na marĩa ahingirie-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
Now the rest of the acts of 'Omri which he did, and his mighty deeds that he displayed, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
28 Omuri akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo Samaria. Nake mũriũ Ahabu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
And 'Omri slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria: and Achab his son became king in his stead.
29 Mwaka wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩnana wa Asa, mũthamaki wa Juda, Ahabu mũrũ wa Omuri agĩtuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, nake agĩthamakĩra Isiraeli arĩ Samaria mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩĩrĩ.
And Achab the son of 'omri became king over Israel in the thirty and eighth year of Assa the king of Judah; and Achab the son of 'Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.
30 Ahabu mũrũ wa Omuri nĩekire maũndũ maingĩ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, makĩria ya mũndũ o wothe wa arĩa maarĩ mbere yake.
And Achab the son of 'Omri did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord more than all that had been before him.
31 We to kuona onire gwĩka mehia ta ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati arĩ kaũndũ kanini, no-o na nĩahikirie Jezebeli mwarĩ wa Ethibaali mũthamaki wa Asidoni, na akĩambĩrĩria gũtungata na kũhooya Baali.
And it came to pass, as if it had been too light a thing for him to walk in the sins of Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, that he took for wife Izebel the daughter of Ethba'al the king of the Zidonians, and went and served Ba'al, and worshipped him.
32 Nĩathondekeire Baali kĩgongona thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Baali ĩrĩa aakire kũu Samaria.
And he erected an altar for Ba'al in the house of Ba'al, which he had built in Samaria.
33 Ningĩ Ahabu nĩathondekire gĩtugĩ kĩa Ashera, na agĩĩka maũndũ maingĩ mooru gũkĩra ũrĩa athamaki othe a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ mbere yake meekĩte ma gũtũma Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli arakare.
And Achab made a grove; and Achab did yet more, so as to provoke the Lord the God of Israel to anger, than all the kings of Israel that had been before him.
34 Ihinda-inĩ rĩa Ahabu, Hieli wa kuuma Betheli nĩacookereirie itũũra rĩa Jeriko. Aahaandire mũthingi wakuo na thogora wa gũkuĩrwo nĩ mũriũ wake wa irigithathi Abiramu, nacio ihingo ciakuo agĩciaka na thogora wa gũkuĩrwo nĩ mũriũ wake Segubu ũrĩa warĩ mũnini, kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni.
In his days did Chiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: with Abiram his first-born laid he the foundation thereof, and with Segub his youngest son set he up the gates thereof, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by means of Joshua the son of Nun.
