1 Ar-ari 21
1 Ket napasamak nga iti saan a nagbayag, ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel ket adda kaubasanna idiay Jezreel, nga asideg ti palasio ni Ahab, nga ari ti Samaria.
Sometime later this happened: There was a man named Naboth from Jezreel, who owned a vineyard in Jezreel close to King Ahab's palace in Samaria.
2 Kinasao ni Ahab ni Nabot a kunana, “Itedmo kaniak ti kaubasam, tapno aramidek a pagmulaan kadagiti natnateng, gapu ta asideg daytoy iti balayko. Kas kasukatna, ikkanka iti nasaysayaat a kaubasan, wenno, no kayatmo, itedko lattan ti bayadna.”
Ahab went to Naboth and said, “Give me your vineyard so I can turn it into a vegetable garden, because it's close to my palace. In return I'll give you a better vineyard, or if you want I'll pay you for it in cash.”
3 Simmungbat ni Nabot kenni Ahab, “Saan koma nga ipalubos ni Yahweh nga itedko kenka ti tawid dagiti kapuonak.”
But Naboth replied, “The Lord curse me if I should give you my forefathers' inheritance.”
4 Nagawid ngarud ni Ahab iti palasiona a nasakit ti nakemna ken makapungtot gapu iti insungbat kenkuana ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel idi kinunana, “Saanko nga ited kenka ti tawid dagiti kapuonak.” Nagidda isuna iti katrena, simmango iti diding, ket saanna a kayat ti mangan iti aniaman a taraon.
Ahab went home sulking and infuriated because Naboth from Jezreel had said, “I will not give you my forefathers' inheritance.” He went to bed, wouldn't look at anyone, and refused to eat.
5 Napan kenkuana ni Jezebel nga asawana ket kinunana kenkuana, “Apay nga agliday unay ti pusom, ket saanka a mangmangan?”
His wife Jezebel came in and asked him, “Why are you so upset about? That you don't want to eat?”
6 Simmungbat isuna kenkuana, “Kinasaok ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel ket kinunak kenkuana, 'Ilakom kaniak ti kaubasam, wenno no kayatmo, 'Ikkanka iti sabali a kaubasan!' Ket simmungbat kaniak, 'Saanko nga ited kenka ti kaubasak.”'
Ahab replied, “It's because I talked with Naboth from Jezreel and I asked him, ‘Give me your vineyard for cash, or if you want, I'll give you another vineyard instead.’ But he said, ‘I will not give you my vineyard.’”
7 Simmungbat ngarud kenkuana ni Jezebel nga asawana, “Saan kadi a sika pay laeng ti mangiturturturay iti pagarian ti Israel? Bumangonka ket manganka; agragsak koma ti pusom. Alaek ti kaubasan ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel para kenka.”
“Aren't you the king of Israel?” his wife Jezebel replied. “Get up, have something to eat, and cheer up. I'll get you the vineyard of Naboth from Jezreel.”
8 Nagsurat ngarud ni Jezebel babaen iti nagan ni Ahab, sinelioanna dagitoy babaen iti pagselio ti ari, ket impatulodna dagitoy kadagiti panglakayen ken kadagiti nababaknang a makipagtugtugaw kenkuana kadagiti panaguummong, a kaarruba ni Nabot.
So she wrote some letters in Ahab's name and sealed them with his seal. She sent the letters to the elders and leaders in the town where Naboth lived.
9 Inlanadna kadagiti surat a kunana, “Mangipakdaarkayo iti panagayunar ket pagtugawenyo ni Nabot iti sangoanan dagiti tattao.
In the letters she wrote to tell them, “Announce a religious fast, and give Naboth a seat of honor.
10 Mangikabilkayo met ti dua nga ulbod a tao a kaduana ket pagsaksienyo ida maibusor kenkuana, a kunada, 'Inlunodmo ti Dios ken ti ari.”' Kalpasanna iruaryo isuna ket batoenyo isuna agingga a matay.
But seat two bad men opposite him and have them accuse him, saying, ‘You have cursed God and the king!’ Then take him out and stone him to death.”
11 Isu a dagiti tattao iti siudadna, dagiti panglakayen ken nababaknang nga agnanaed iti siudadna, inaramidda ti imbilin ni Jezebel kadakuada, a kas nailanad iti surat nga impatulodna kadakuada.
So the elders and leaders who lived in Naboth's town did as Jezebel had said in the letters she had written and sent to them.
12 Nangipakdaarda iti panagayunar ket pinagtugawda ni Nabot iti sangoanan dagiti tattao.
They announced a religious fast, and gave Naboth a seat of honor.
13 Immay dagiti dua nga ulbod a tattao ket nagtugawda iti sangoanan ni Nabot; nagsaksida maibusor kenni Nabot iti sangoanan dagiti tattao, a kunada, “Inlunod ni Nabot ti Dios ken ti ari.” Kalpasanna, inruarda isuna iti siudad ket binato-batoda isuna agingga a natay.
Two bad men came and sat opposite him, and accused him in front of the people, saying, “Naboth has cursed God and the king.” So they took him outside the town and stoned him to death.
14 Kalpasanna, nangipatulod dagiti panglakayen iti sao kenni Jezebel, a kunada, “Binatodan ni Nabot ket natayen.”
Then they sent a message to Jezebel, saying, “Naboth has been stoned. He's dead.”
15 Ket idi nadamag ni Jezebel a nabato ken natayen ni Nabot, kinunana kenni Ahab, “Tumakderka ket mapanmo alaem ti sanikua ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel, a saanna a kayat nga ilako kenka, gapu ta saanen a sibibibiag ni Nabot ngem ketdi natayen.”
As soon as Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and he was dead, Jezebel told Ahab, “Get up, go and claim ownership of the vineyard of Naboth from Jezreel, which he refused to sell you, for Naboth is no longer alive, but dead.”
16 Idi nangngeg ni Ahab a natayen ni Nabot, nagrubbuat isuna tapno mapan iti kaubasan ni Nabot a taga-Jezreel ket tagikuaenna daytoy.
When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he got up and went to claim ownership of Naboth's vineyard.
17 Ket immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Elias a taga-Tisbi, a kunana,
Then the Lord sent a message to Elijah the Tishbite:
18 “Tumakderka ket mapanmo saraken ni Ahab nga ari ti Israel, nga agnanaed idiay Samaria. Adda isuna iti kaubasan ni Nabot, tapno tagikuaenna daytoy.
“Go and meet Ahab, king of Israel, in Samaria. He is right now in Naboth's vineyard, where he has gone to claim ownership of it.
19 Nasken a kasaom isuna ket ibagam a kuna ni Yahweh, ‘Pimmatayka kadi ken nangtagikuaka?' Ket ibagam kenkuana a kuna ni Yahweh, 'Iti lugar a nangdilpatan dagiti aso iti dara ni Nabot, dilpatanto met dagiti aso ti daram, wen, ti daram,’ “
Tell him: This is what the Lord says: Have you murdered a man and robbed him? Then tell him: This is what the Lord says: In the very spot where dogs licked up Naboth's blood, dogs will lick up your own blood.”
20 Kinuna ni Ahab kenni Elias, “Nasarakannak kadi, kabusorko?” Simmungbat ni Elias, “Nasarakanka, gapu ta inlakom ti bagim iti panagaramid iti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh.
“So have you come to find me, my enemy?” Ahab asked Elijah. “I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do what is evil in the Lord sight,” Elijah replied.
21 Ibagbaga ni Yaweh daytoy kenka: 'Kitaem, mangiyegakto iti didigra kenka ket ikisapkonto amin ken pukawek kenka ti tunggal ubing a lalaki, adipen ken siwawaya a tao iti Israel.
He says, “Watch out! I'm going to bring disaster on you and destroy your descendants. I will kill from every male of Ahab's line, both slave and free, in the whole of Israel.
22 Pagbalinekto ti pamiliam a kas iti pamilia ni Jeroboam nga anak ni Nabat, ken kas iti pamilia ni Baasa nga anak ni Ahijah, gapu ta pinagpungtotnak ken insungsongmo ti Israel nga agbasol.'
I will make your house like that of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and like that of Baasha, son of Ahijah, because you have angered me and made Israel sin.
23 Nagsao met ni Yahweh maipapan kenni Jezebel, a kunana, 'Kanento dagiti aso ni Jezebel iti asideg ti pader ti Jezreel.'
And as far as Jezebel is concerned, the Lord says, ‘Dogs will eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.’
24 Siasinoman a maibilang kenni Ahab a matay iti siudad-kanento dagiti aso dayta a tao. Ket siasinoman a matay iti away-kanento dagiti billit iti tangatang dayta a tao.”
Those of Ahab's family who die in the town will be eaten by dogs, and those who die in the countryside will be eaten by birds.”
25 Awan ti kas kenni Ahab, a nangilako iti bagina iti panagaramid iti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh, a sinugsugan ni Jezebel nga asawana nga agbasol.
(No one else was so bad as Ahab, who sold himself to do what is evil in the Lord's sight, because his wife Jezebel encouraged him.
26 Nagaramid ni Ahab kadagiti makarimon nga aramid para kadagiti didiosen a dinayawna, a kas iti amin nga inaramid dagiti Amorreo, nga innikkat ni Yahweh iti sangoanan dagiti tattao ti Israel.
He did the most despicable things, worshiping idols like the Amorites the Lord had driven out before Israel.)
27 Idi nangngeg ni Ahab dagitoy a sasao, rinay-abna dagiti kawesna ket nagkawes iti nakersang a lupot ken nagayunar ket nagidda a sikakawes iti nakersang a lupot ket kasta unay ti panaglidayna.
As soon as Ahab heard this message, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and fasted. He even went to bed in sackcloth, and walked around repentantly.
28 Ket immay ti sao ni Yawheh kenni Elias a taga-Tisbi, a kunana,
Then the Lord sent a message to Elijah the Tishbite:
29 “Nakitam kadi no kasano a nagpakumbaba ni Ahab iti sangoanak? Gapu ta impakumbabana ti bagina iti sangoanak, saankon nga iyeg ti umay a didigra bayat iti panagbiagna; kadagiti al-aldaw a panagbiag dagiti annakna nga iyegkonto daytoy a didigra iti pamiliana.”
“Have you seen how Ahab has humbled himself before me? Because he has humbled himself before me, I will not bring the disaster during his lifetime, but I will bring down disaster on his family in the lifetime of his son.”
