1 Na rĩrĩ, Ahabu akĩĩra Jezebeli ũrĩa wothe Elija eekĩte, o na ũrĩa ooragithĩtie anabii othe a Baali na rũhiũ rwa njora.
Ɛberɛ a Ahab duruu fie no, ɔkaa deɛ Elia ayɛ nyinaa ne sɛdeɛ wakunkum Baal adiyifoɔ nyinaa no kyerɛɛ Isebel.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jezebeli agĩtũmĩra Elija mũndũ akamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Ngai ciakwa iroothũũra o na ikĩrĩrĩrie gũthũũra, angĩkorwo ihinda ta rĩrĩ rũciũ, ndigatũma muoyo waku ũhaane ta wa ũmwe wa anabii acio ũrooragire.”
Enti, Isebel de saa nkra yi kɔmaa Elia sɛ, “Sɛ ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ na menkum wo, sɛdeɛ woakum nkurɔfoɔ yi a, anyame no nku me bi.”
3 Elija agĩĩtigĩra akĩũra nĩguo ahonokie muoyo wake. Aakinya Birishiba kũu Juda, agĩtiga ndungata yake kuo,
Elia tee nkra no, ɔsuroeɛ, enti ɔdwane de peree ne ti. Ɔkɔɔ kuro bi a ɛwɔ Yuda a wɔfrɛ no Beer-Seba, gyaa ne ɔsomfoɔ wɔ hɔ.
4 nowe mwene, agĩthiĩ rũgendo rwa mũthenya ũmwe na kũu werũ-inĩ. Agĩkinya mũtĩ-inĩ wa mwethia, agĩikara thĩ kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo, akĩhooya akue. Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova, nĩnyonete mathĩĩna ma kũnjigana. Oya muoyo wakwa; niĩ ndirĩ mwega gũkĩra maithe makwa ma tene.”
Na ɔno nko ara nantee da mu nyinaa kɔɔ ɛserɛ so. Ɔkɔtenaa dutan bi a na ayɛ frɔmm ase, na ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ anka ɔnwu. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Deɛ mahunu no ara dɔɔ me so, Awurade. Twa me nkwa so na mennyɛ nsene mʼagyanom.”
5 Agĩkoma toro hau rungu rwa mũtĩ ũcio. O rĩmwe mũraika akĩmũhutia, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũrĩe.”
Na ɔdaa dua no ase. Na ne nna mu no, ɔbɔfoɔ bɛkaa no, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɔre na didi.”
6 Akĩĩhũgũra, na hau mũtwe-inĩ wake haarĩ na mũgate wahĩhĩtio na makara mahiũ, na nĩ haarĩ na ndigithũ yarĩ na maaĩ. Akĩrĩa na akĩnyua, agĩcooka agĩkoma rĩngĩ.
Ɔhwɛɛ ne ho hyiaeɛ hunuu burodo bi a wɔato no ogyasramma so, ne kuruwa a nsuo wɔ mu. Enti, ɔdidiiɛ, nom nsuo no, sane daa bio.
7 Mũraika ũcio wa Jehova akĩmũkora hĩndĩ ya keerĩ, akĩmũhutia, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũrĩe nĩgũkorwo rũgendo rũrĩa rũrĩ mbere yaku nĩ rũraihu mũno.”
Na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no sane baa bio bɛkaa no kaa sɛ, “Sɔre na didi pii ka ho, na ɛkwan a ɛda wʼanim no ware.”
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩũkĩra akĩrĩa na akĩnyua. Akĩgĩa na hinya nĩ ũndũ wa irio icio, agĩthiĩ matukũ mĩrongo ĩna, mũthenya na ũtukũ, nginya agĩkinya Horebu, kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ngai.
Enti, ɔsɔre didiiɛ, nomee. Aduane no maa no nyaa ahoɔden a ɔde bɛtwa ɛkwan adaduanan, awia ne anadwo akɔ Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no so.
9 Kũu agĩthiĩ agĩtoonya ngurunga, akĩraara ho. Nakĩo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩkĩmũkinyĩra, akĩũrio atĩrĩ, “Elija, ũreka atĩa haha?”
Ɔkɔduruu ɔbodan bi ho, na ɔdaa mu anadwo no. Na Awurade bisaa no sɛ, “Elia, ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
10 Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngoretwo ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Andũ a Isiraeli nao nĩmaregete kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku, makamomora igongona ciaku, na makooraga anabii aku na rũhiũ rwa njora. No niĩ nyiki ndigarĩte, na rĩu o na niĩ nĩmarageria kũnjũraga.”
Elia buaa sɛ, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn. Nanso, Israelfoɔ abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛeɛ no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔrebukyia nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifoɔ a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrepɛ me akum me nso.”
11 Nake Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Uma ũthiĩ ũrũgame kĩrĩma-inĩ mbere ya Jehova, nĩgũkorwo Jehova akiriĩ kũhĩtũkĩra ho.” Hĩndĩ ĩyo rũhuho rũnene rwa hinya rũgĩatũranga irĩma na rũgĩthethera mahiga mbere ya Jehova, no Jehova ndaarĩ rũhuho-inĩ rũu. Thuutha wa rũhuho gũkĩgĩa gĩthingithia, no Jehova ndaarĩ gĩthingithia-inĩ kĩu.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Firi adi kɔgyina mʼanim wɔ bepɔ no so.” Na ɛberɛ a Elia gyina hɔ no, Awurade bɛfaa hɔ, na mframa denden bi bɔ sii bepɔ no mu. Na mframa no ano den no dwidwaa abotan no mu. Nanso, na Awurade nni mframa no mu. Mframa no akyi no, asase wosooɛ. Nanso, na Awurade nni asasewosoɔ no mu.
12 Thuutha wa gĩthingithia gũgĩũka mwaki, no Jehova ndaarĩ mwaki-inĩ ũcio, na thuutha wa mwaki ũcio gũgĩũka mũgambo mũceke, mũhooreru.
Na asasewosoɔ no akyi, ogya pueeɛ. Nanso, na Awurade nni ogya no mu. Na ogya no akyi, nne bi a ɛyɛ bɔkɔɔ te sɛ deɛ wɔde ka asomusɛm baeɛ.
13 Rĩrĩa Elija aiguire mũgambo ũcio, akĩguucia nguo yake akĩhumbĩra ũthiũ, na akiuma akĩrũgama mũromo-inĩ wa ngurunga. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũgambo ũkĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Elija, ũreka atĩa haha?”
Elia tee nne no, ɔde nʼatadeɛ kataa nʼanim ɛnna ɔfiri ɔbodan no mu, kɔgyinaa ano kwan no ano. Na nne bi bisaa sɛ, “Elia, ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
14 Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngoretwo ndĩ na kĩyo kĩnene nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Andũ a Isiraeli nao nĩmaregete kĩrĩkanĩro gĩaku, makamomora igongona ciaku, na makooraga anabii aku na rũhiũ rwa njora. No niĩ nyiki ndigarĩte, na rĩu o na niĩ nĩmarageria kũnjũraga.”
Ɔbuaa bio sɛ, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn. Nanso, Israelfoɔ abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛeɛ no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔrebukyia nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifoɔ a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrepɛ me akum me nso.”
15 Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra ũcookere o njĩra ĩrĩa wokĩire, ũthiĩ nginya Werũ wa Dameski. Wakinya kuo-rĩ, ũitĩrĩrie Hazaeli maguta atuĩke mũthamaki wa Suriata.
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sane wʼakyi kɔ baabi a wofiri baeɛ, na kɔ Damasko ɛserɛ so. Na sɛ woduru hɔ a, sra Hasael ngo, si no Aramhene.
16 Ũcooke ũitĩrĩrie Jehu mũrũ wa Nimushi maguta atuĩke mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na ũitĩrĩrie Elisha mũrũ wa Shafatu wa kuuma Abeli-Mehola maguta nĩguo atuĩke mũnabii ithenya rĩaku.
Afei, sra Nimsi babarima Yehu, na ɔnyɛ Israelhene, na sra Safat babarima Elisa a ɔfiri Abel-Mehola, na ɔnsi wʼananmu sɛ me odiyifoɔ.
17 Jehu nĩakooraga ũrĩa wothe ũkaahonoka rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Hazaeli, nake Elisha nĩakooraga ũrĩa wothe ũkaahonoka rũhiũ rwa njora rwa Jehu.
Obiara a ɔbɛdwane afiri Hasael ho no, Yehu bɛkum no, na obiara a ɔbɛdwane afiri Yehu ho nso no, Elisa bɛkum no.
18 Na rĩrĩ, nĩndĩtigĩirie ngiri mũgwanja thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, othe arĩa matarĩ maaturĩria Baali ndu, na matarĩ maamĩmumunya.”
Yeinom akyi no, mɛbɔ nnipa afoforɔ mpem nson bi a wɔwɔ Israel a wɔnkotoo Baal, mfee nʼano da no ho ban.”
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elija akiuma kũu, agĩthiĩ agĩkora Elisha mũrũ wa Shafatu. Aaciimbaga na ndegwa ikũmi na igĩrĩ ciohanĩtio na macooki igĩrĩ igĩrĩ, nowe aatwarithagia icooki rĩa ikũmi na meerĩ. Elija agĩthiĩ harĩ we na akĩmũikĩria nguo yake ya igũrũ.
Na Elia kɔhunuu Safat babarima Elisa sɛ ɔde anantwie refuntum afuo. Na anantwie mpamho dubaako na wɔdi nʼanim, ɛnna Elisa nso de mpamho a ɛtɔ so dumienu refuntum. Elia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔtoo nʼatadeɛ guu ne mmati so, na ɔsane nʼakyi kɔeɛ.
20 Nake Elisha agĩtiganĩria ndegwa ciake akĩrũmĩrĩra Elija. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Njĩtĩkĩria ngoigĩre baba na maitũ ũhoro, njooke njũke tũthiĩ nawe.” Nake Elija akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Cooka, kaĩ arĩ atĩa ndagwĩka?”
Elisa gyaa anantwie no hɔ, tuu mmirika dii Elia akyi, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ma menkɔkra mʼagya ne me maame ansa na me ne wo akɔ.” Elia buaa sɛ, “Sane wʼakyi na kɔ. Na deɛ mayɛ wo no, dwene ho.”
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Elisha akĩmũtiga, agĩcooka. Akĩoya ndegwa icio ciake cia macooki, agĩcithĩnja. Agĩakia mwaki na mĩraũ, akĩruga nyama, agĩcihe andũ makĩrĩa. Thuutha ũcio akiumagara, akĩrũmĩrĩra Elija, agĩtuĩka mũteithia wake.
Afei, Elisa sane kɔɔ anantwie no ho kɔkunkumm wɔn. Ɔde funtumfidie no ho nnua no yɛɛ nnyensin de totoo ɛnam no. Ɔde ɛnam no kɔmaa mmarima a wɔde funtumfidie a aka no reyɛ adwuma no nyinaa, ma wɔweeɛ. Na ɔne Elia kɔeɛ sɛ ne ɔboafoɔ.
