1 Bimmusor ti Moab iti Israel kalpasan iti ipapatay ni Ahab.
After Ahab died, Moab rebelled against Israel.
2 Ket natnag ni Ahazias iti balkon iti akingato a siledna idiay Samaria, ket nasugatan. Isu a nangibaon isuna kadagiti mensahero ket kinunana kadakuada, “Mapankayo, makiuman kenni Baal Zebub, a dios ti Ekron, no umimbagak pay manipud iti daytoy a pannakadangran.”
Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice-work of his upper room in Samaria and had hurt himself badly. So he sent out messengers, telling them: “Go and ask Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, whether I will get better from this injury.”
3 Ngem kinuna ti anghel ni Yahweh kenni Elias a Tesbita, “Agrubuatka, mapanmo sabtem dagiti mensahero ti ari ti Samaria, ket damagem kadakuada, 'Gapu kadi ta awan ti Dios ti Israel isu a mapankayo makiuman kenni Baal Zebub, a dios ti Ekron?
But the angel of the Lord told Elijah the Tishbite, “Go and meet the messengers of the king of Samaria and ask them, ‘Is it because there's no God in Israel that you're going to ask advice from Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?’
4 Isu a kuna ni Yahweh, “Saankan a makababa iti pagiddaan nga immulliam; ngem ketdi, mataykanto.”'” Ket pimmanaw ni Elias.
So this is the Lord's answer: ‘You will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.’” And Elijah left.
5 Idi nagsubli dagiti mensahero kenni Ahazias, kinunana kadakuada, “Apay a nagsublikayo?”
The messengers returned to the king, and he asked them, “Why have you come back?”
6 Kinunada kenkuana, “Adda ti maysa a tao nga immay simmabat kadakami a nangibaga, 'Agsublikayo iti ari a nangibaon kadakayo, ket ibagayo kenkuana, “Imbaga ni Yahweh daytoy: 'Gapu kadi ta awan ti Dios ti Israel isu a nangibaonka kadagiti lallaki a makiuman kenni Baal Zebub, a dios ti Ekron? Ngarud saankan a makababa iti pagiddaan nga immulliam; ngem ketdi, mataykanto.'”'”
“A man came and met us,” they replied. “He told us, ‘Go back to the king who sent you, and tell him, This is what the Lord says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending to ask advice from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? As a result you will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.’”
7 Kinuna ni Ahazias kadagiti mensaherona, “Ania ti langana, ti tao a simmabat ken nangibaga kadagitoy a sasao kadakayo?”
“What was he like, this man who met you and told you all this?” the king asked.
8 Simmungbatda kenkuana, “Nakakawes isuna iti naaramid ti buok ken nakabarikes isuna iti lalat.” Isu nga insungbat ti ari, “Dayta ni Elias a Tesbita.”
“He was a hairy man wearing a leather belt around his waist,” they replied. “It's Elijah the Tishbite,” said the king.
9 Nangibaon ngarud ti ari iti kapitan nga addaan iti limapulo a soldado a mapan kenni Elias. Simmang-at ti kapitan a napan kenni Elias iti pagtugtugawanna iti tapaw ti turod. Nagsao ti kapitan kenkuana, “Sika, a tao ti Dios, kinuna ti ari, 'Bumabaka.’”
Then the king sent an army captain with fifty men to Elijah. The captain went up to Elijah, who was sitting on the top of a hill, and told him, “Man of God, the king orders you, ‘Come down!’”
10 “Simmungbat ni Elias ket kinunana iti kapitan, “No taonak ti Dios, bumaba koma ti apuy manipud langit ket puorannaka ken dagiti limapulo a tattaom.” Ket bimmaba ti apuy manipud langit ket naikisap isuna ken dagiti limapulo a tattaona.
Elijah replied to the captain, “If I am a man of God, then let fire fall from heaven and burn up you and your fifty men.” Fire fell from heaven and burned up the captain and his men.
11 Nangibaon manen ni Ari Ahazias iti sabali a kapitan nga addaan iti limapulo a soldado. Kinuna met dayta a kapitan kenni Elias, “Sika, a tao ti Dios, kuna ti ari, 'Bumabaka a dagus.”'
So the king sent another captain with his fifty men to Elijah. The captain said to Elijah, “Man of God, the king orders you, Come down immediately!”
12 “Simmungbat ni Elias ket kinunana kadakuada, “No taonak ti Dios, bumaba koma ti apuy manipud langit ket puorannaka ken dagiti limapulo a tattaom.” Bimmaba manen ti apuy ti Dios manipud langit ket naikisap isuna ken dagiti limapulo a tattaona.
Elijah replied to the captain, “If I am a man of God, then let fire fall from heaven and burn up you and your fifty men.” Fire fell from heaven and burned up the captain and his men.
13 Nu pay kasta, nangibaon manen ti ari iti maikatlo a bunggoy ti limapulo a mannakigubat. Simmang-at daytoy a kapitan, nagparintumeng isuna iti sangoanan ni Elias, ket nagpakpakaasi ken kinunana kenkuana, “Sika, a tao ti Dios, dawatek kenka, agbalin koma a kailala iti imatangmo ti biagko ken ti biag dagitoy limapulo nga adipenmo.
So the king sent a third captain with his fifty men. The third captain went up, kneeled before Elijah, and pleaded with him, “Man of God, please value my life and the lives of these fifty men.
14 Kinapudnona, bimmaba ti apuy manipud langit ket inkisapna dagiti dua a kapitan ken dagiti tattaoda, ngem ita, agbalin koma a kailala ti biagko iti imatangmo.”
Yes, fire has fallen from heaven and burned up the first two captains of fifty, along with all their men. But now please value my life!”
15 Isu a kinuna ti anghel ni Yahweh kenni Elias, “Kumuyogka kenkuana. Saanka nga agbuteng kenkuana.” Isu a timmakder ni Elias ket kimmuyog kenkuana a napan iti ari.
Then the angel of the Lord told Elijah, “Go down with him. You don't have to be afraid of him.” So Elijah got up and went down with him to the king.
16 Saan a nagbayag, kinuna ni Elias kenni Ahazias, “Daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh, ‘Nangibaonka kadagiti mensahero a makiuman kenni Baal Zebub, a dios ti Ekron. Gapu kadi ta awan ti Dios ti Israel a pakiumanam? Isu nga ita, saankan a makababa iti pagiddaan nga immulliam; sigurado a mataykanto.”'
Elijah told the king, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Is it because there's no God in Israel for you to consult that you have sent messengers to ask advice of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? As a result you will not leave the bed on which you are lying. You're definitely going to die.”
17 Isu a natay ni Ahazias a kas iti sao ni Yahweh nga imbaga ni Elias. Nagturay ni Joram a kas kasukatna, iti maikadua a tawen ni Johoram nga anak a lalaki ni Josafat nga ari ti Juda, gapu ta awan ti lalaki nga anak ni Ahazias.
Ahaziah died just as the Lord had said through Elijah. Because he had no son, Joram succeeded him as king in the second year of the reign of Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.
18 Maipanggep met kadagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Ahazias, saanda kadi a naisurat iti Libro dagiti Pasamak dagiti Ari ti Israel?
The rest of what happened in Ahaziah's reign and what he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
