< 2 Ndị Eze 1 >
1 Moab nupuru isi megide Izrel mgbe Ehab nwụrụ.
Forsothe Moab trespasside ayens Israel, after that Achab was deed.
2 Nʼoge a, Ahazaya sitere na mgbe ụlọ elu ya dị na Sameria daa, merụọ ahụ nke ukwuu. Nʼihi ọrịa a, o zigara ndị ozi, sị ha, “Gaa jụta ase nʼaka Baal-Zebub, bụ chi Ekrọn, ma m ga-adịrị site nʼihe mmerụ ahụ a.”
And Ocozie felde thorou the aleris of his soler, which he hadde in Samarie, and was sijk; and he sente messangeris, and seide to hem, Go ye, and councele Belzebub, god of Acharon, whether Y may lyue after this sijknesse of me.
3 Ma mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị gwara Ịlaịja onye Tishbe okwu sị ya, “Gaa zute ndị ozi eze Sameria zipụrụ, jụọ ha sị, ‘Gịnị mere unu ji aga Ekrọn ịjụ ase? Ọ bụ na Chineke anọghị nʼIzrel mere unu ji aga ịjụ Baal-Zebub ase ịmata ma eze ọ ga-adị ndụ?’
Forsothe the aungel of the Lord spak to Elye of Thesbi, and seide, Rise thou, and go doun into the metynge of the messangeris of the kyng of Samarie; and thou schalt seie to hem, Whether God is not in Israel, that ye go to counsel Belzebub, god of Acharon?
4 Nʼihi nke a, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ‘Ị gaghị esite nʼelu ihe ndina ahụ bilie. Ị ghaghị ịnwụ!’” Ya mere Ịlaịja pụrụ gaa zie ndị ozi eze ozi ahụ.
For which thing the Lord seith these thingis, Thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist.
5 Ndị ozi ahụ laghachiri azụ. Ma mgbe eze hụrụ ha, ọ jụrụ ha sị, “Gịnị mere unu ji lọghachi?”
And Elie yede. And the messangeris turneden ayen to Ocozie. And he seide to hem, Whi turneden ye ayen?
6 Ha zara ya, “Otu nwoke zutere anyị nʼụzọ sị anyị, ‘Laghachi ga zie eze ahụ zitere unu sị ya: “Ihe ndị a, ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Ọ bụ nʼihi na Chineke anọghị nʼIzrel ka i ji zipụ ndị mmadụ ka ha gaa jụta ase site nʼaka Baal-Zebub, chi ndị Ekrọn? Nʼihi nke a, ị gaghị esite nʼihe ndina gị bilie. Ya doo gị anya na ị ghaghị ịnwụ!”’”
And thei answeriden to hym, A man mette vs, and seide to vs, Go ye, turne ye ayen to the kyng, that sente you; and ye schulen seie to him, The Lord seith these thingis, Whether for God was not in Israel, thou sendist, that Belzebub, god of Acharon, be counselid? Therfor thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist, but thou schalt die bi deeth.
7 Eze jụrụ ha sị, “Onye bụ nwoke a zutere unu nʼụzọ gwa unu okwu ndị a? Olee ụdị mmadụ ọ bụ?”
Which Ocozie seide to hem, Of what figure and abite is that man, that mette you, and spak to you these wordis?
8 Ha zaghachiri ya, “Ọ bụ nwoke yi uwe e ji ajị anụ kpaa; o kere ihe okike akpụkpọ anụ nʼukwu ya.” Eze sịrị, “Ọ bụ Ịlaịja, onye amụma si Tishbe!”
And thei seiden, An heeri man, and gird with a girdil of skyn in the reynes. Which seide to hem, It is Elie of Thesbi.
9 Mgbe ahụ, eze zigara otu onyeisi agha ya, na iri ndị agha ise ka ha gaa jide Ịlaịja. Mgbe ndị agha ahụ bịarutere hụ Ịlaịja ka ọ nọ ala nʼelu ugwu, onyeisi agha ahụ kpọrọ Ịlaịja sị ya, “Onye nke Chineke, eze sị gị, ‘rituo!’”
And he sente to Elie a prince of fifti, and fifti men that weren vndur hym. Which prince stiede to hym, and seide to hym, sittynge in the cop of the hil, Man of God, the kyng comaundith, that thou come doun.
10 Ịlaịja zara sị ha, “Ọ bụrụ na m bụ onye nke Chineke dịka i kwuru, ka ọkụ si nʼeluigwe daa rechapụ gị na iri ndị a agha ise so gị.” Otu mgbe ahụ, ọkụ sitere nʼeluigwe daa rechapụ iri ndị agha ise ahụ na onyeisi ha.
And Elie answeride, and seide to the prince of fifti men, If Y am the man of God, fier come doun fro heuene, and deuoure thee and thi fifti men. Therfor fier cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride hym, and the fifti men that weren with hym.
11 Ọzọkwa, eze zigara otu onyeisi agha na iri ndị agha ise ọzọ ka ha gaa jide Ịlaịja. Mgbe ha bịarutere hụ Ịlaịja, onyeisi agha ahụ kpọkuru ya sị ya, “Onye nke Chineke, eze sị gị, ‘rituo, bịa ngwangwa!’”
Eft he sente to Elie another prince of fifti, and fifti men with hym, which spak to Helye, Man of God, the kyng seith these thingis, Haste thou, come thou doun.
12 Ịlaịja zara sị ya, “Ọ bụrụ na m bụ onye nke Chineke dịka i kwuru, ka ọkụ si nʼeluigwe daa rechapụ gị na iri ndị agha ise gị na ha so.” Ngwangwa, ọkụ Chineke si nʼeluigwe daa rechapụ ha.
Elie answeride, and seide, If Y am the man of God, fier come doun fro heuene, and deuoure thee and thi fifti men. Therfor the fier of God cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride hym and hise fifti men.
13 Ọzọkwa, eze zigara otu onyeisi agha na iri ndị agha ise ọzọ ka ha gaa jide Ịlaịja. Mgbe ndị agha a bịara hụ Ịlaịja, onyeisi agha ahụ rigoro nʼelu ugwu gbuo ikpere nʼala nʼihu Ịlaịja rịọọ ya amara sị ya, “Onye nke Chineke, biko, meere ohu gị na iri ndị agha ise mụ na ha so ebere.
Eft he sente the thridde prince of fifti men, and fifti men that weren with hym. And whanne this prynce hadde come, he bowide the knees ayens Elie, and preiede hym, and seide, Man of God, nyle thou dispise my lijf, and the lyues of thi seruauntis that ben with me.
14 Lee, ọkụ esitela nʼeluigwe rechapụ ndịisi agha abụọ ahụ buru ụzọ, ha na ndị agha ha. Ugbu a, biko, arịọ m gị, chebe ndụ anyị.”
Lo! fier cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride tweyne, the firste princis of fifti men, and the fifti men that weren with hem; but now, Y biseche, that thou haue mercy on my lijf.
15 Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị gwara Ịlaịja okwu sị ya, “Atụla egwu! Soro ya gaa!” Ya mere, Ịlaịja sooro onyeisi agha ahụ gaa nʼihu eze.
Forsothe the aungel of the Lord spak to Helie of Thesbi, and seide, Go thou doun with hym; drede thou not. Therfor Elie roos, and cam doun with hym to the kyng;
16 Mgbe Ịlaịja ruru nʼihu eze, ọ gwara eze okwu sị ya, “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, ọ bụ nʼihi na Chineke anọghị nʼIzrel ka i ji zipụ ndị ozi ka ha gaa jụta ase site nʼaka Baal-Zebub, chi ndị Ekrọn? Ebe ọ bụ na i mere ihe dị otu a, ị gaghị esite nʼihe ndina gị bilie. Ị ga-anwụrịrị!”
and he spak to the kyng, The Lord seith thes thingis, For thou sentist messangeris to counsele Belzebub, god of Acharon, as if no God were in Israel, of whom thow myytist axe a word; therfor thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist, but thou schalt die bi deeth.
17 Ọ nwụrụ dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị nke Ịlaịja kwuru si dị. Nʼihi na Ahazaya enweghị nwa nwoke ọbụla, Jehoram nọchiri anya ya dịka eze, nʼafọ nke abụọ nke ịbụ eze Jehoram nwa Jehoshafat, bụ eze Juda.
Therfor he was deed bi the word of the Lord, which word Elie spak; and Joram, hys brothir, regnyde for hym, in the secounde yeer of Joram, the sone of Josephat, kyng of Juda; for Ocozie hadde no sone.
18 Akụkọ banyere ịbụ eze nke Ahazaya, na ihe niile o mere, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ndị eze Izrel?
Sotheli the residue of wordis of Ocozie, whiche he wrouyte, whether these ben not writun in the book of wordis of daies of the kyngis of Israel?
