Sie Tokosra 13
1 Ke sap lun LEUM GOD, sie mwet palu in acn Judah el som nu Bethel ac sun acn we ke Jeroboam el tu ke loang sac ac akola in kisakin mwe kisa lal.
And behold, by the word of the Lord, a man of God went from Judah to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing over the altar, and burning incense.
2 In oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, mwet palu sac el fahkak kas in lain loang sac ac fahk, “O loang, loang, pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk: Sie tulik, su ac fah pangpang Josiah, el ac fah isusla in sou lal David. Mwet tol su kulansap ke nien alu lun mwet pegan ac orek kisa fom, Josiah el ac fah onelosi pac fom, oayapa el ac fah esukak srin mwet misa fom.”
And by the word of the Lord, he cried out against the altar. And he said: “O altar, O altar! Thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, a son will be born to the house of David, Josiah by name. And upon you, he will immolate the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon you. And upon you, he will burn up the bones of men.’”
3 A mwet palu sac tafwelana in fahk, “Loang se inge ac fah fokelik, ac apat kac ac sohkelik, na kowos fah etu lah LEUM GOD El kaskas ke oalik.”
And he gave a sign on the same day, saying: “This will be the sign that the Lord has spoken. Behold, the altar shall be torn apart, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.”
4 Ke pacl se Tokosra Jeroboam el lohng ma inge el asroela paol ac srisrngiya mwet paclu sac, ac fahk, “Sruokilya!” In kitin pacl ah na paol tokosra efla, ac el kofla kotani.
And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, he extended his hand from the altar, saying, “Apprehend him!” But his hand, which he had extended against him, withered. And he was unable to draw it back to himself.
5 Loang sac fokelik, ac apat kac rakelik ac oaclik infohk uh oana ma mwet palu sac palye Inen LEUM GOD.
Also, the altar was torn apart, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, in accord with the sign that the man of God had predicted by the word of the Lord.
6 Tokosra Jeroboam el fahk nu sin mwet palu sac, “Nunak munas, pre keik nu sin LEUM GOD lom, ac siyuk Elan akkeyala pouk!” Mwet palu sa el pre nu sin LEUM GOD, ac paol tokosra kwela.
And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat the face of the Lord your God, and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God prayed before the face of the Lord, and the hand of the king was restored to him, and it became as it had been before.
7 Na tokosra el fahk nu sin mwet palu sac, “Fahsru wiyu mongo in lohm sik. Nga ac akfalye nu sum ke ma kom oru inge.”
Then the king said to the man of God: “Come home with me, so that you may dine. And I will give you gifts.”
8 Na mwet palu sac topuk, “Kom finne use tafu mwe kasrup lom an, nga ac tiana wi kom som, ku kang ac nim kutena ma yurum.
And the man of God responded to the king: “Even if you will give me one half part of your house, I will not go with you, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place.
9 LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sik ngan tiana kang ku nim kutena ma, oayapa ngan tia folok ke innek soko nga ut kac tuku ah.”
For so it was commanded to me by the word of the Lord, ordering: ‘You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water, nor shall you return by the way that you came.’”
10 Ouinge el som ke soko pacna inkanek, ac tia ke innek soko el tuku kac me.
Then he departed by another way, and he did not return along the way that he had traveled to Bethel.
11 In pacl sac, oasr mwet palu matu se muta in acn Bethel. Wen natul eltal tuku nu yorol ac fahk nu sel ma mwet palu se lun Judah el oru in acn Bethel ke len sac, ac ma el tuh fahk nu sel Tokosra Jeroboam.
Now a certain elderly prophet was living in Bethel. His sons went to him, and they described to him all the works which the man of God had accomplished on that day in Bethel. And they described to their father the words that he had spoken to the king.
12 Ac mwet palu matu sac siyuk seltal, “Inkanek ya el ut we ke el folokla?” Eltal srusrngaung inkanek soko ah.
And their father said to them, “By which way did he depart?” His sons showed him the way by which the man of God, who had come from Judah, had departed.
13 Na el sap eltal in akoela donkey natul ah, ac eltal orala, na el som.
And he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it, he climbed on,
14 El ukwe mwet palu Judah sac, ac konalak ke el muta ye sak oak soko. Ac el siyuk sel, “Ku kom pa mwet palu se lun Judah?” Mwet palu sac topuk, “Aok, nga.”
and he went away after the man of God. And he found him sitting under a terebinth tree. And he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” And he responded, “I am.”
15 Mwet sac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu mongo lohm sik ah.”
And he said to him, “Come home with me, so that you may eat bread.”
16 Ac mwet palu lun Judah el fahk, “Nga koflana wi kom nu in lohm sum, ku eis mwe kulang sum. Ac nga fah tia mongo ku nim kutena ma yurum in acn se inge,
But he said: “I am not able to turn back, nor to go with you. Neither will I eat bread, or drink water in this place.
17 mweyen LEUM GOD El sapkin ngan tiana kang ku nim kutena ma, ac nga in tia folok ke inkanek soko nga ut we tuku.”
For the Lord has spoken to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, “You shall not eat bread, and you shall not drink water in that place, nor shall you return by the way that you arrived.”
18 Na mwet palu matu se lun Bethel el fahk nu sel, “Nga pac, nga mwet palu se oana kom, ac LEUM GOD El sap sie lipufan in fahk nu sik ngan eis kom in wiyu nu lohm sik ah, ac kite kom ke mwe mongo ac mwe nim.” Tusruktu mwet palu matu sac el kikiap nu sel.
And he said to him: “I, too, am a prophet like you. And an Angel spoke to me, by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Lead him back with you to your house, so that he may eat bread, and drink water.’” And so he deceived him.
19 Ouinge mwet palu lun Judah el wi mwet palu matu sac folokla, ac mongo yorol in lohm sel.
And he led him back with him. Then he ate bread and drank water in his house.
20 Ke eltal muta ke tepu lal, kas lun LEUM GOD tuku nu sin mwet palu matu sac,
And while they were sitting at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had led him back.
21 ac el liksreni na fahk nu sin mwet palu lun Judah, “LEUM GOD El fahk lah kom seakos ac tia oru ma El sapkin nu sum.
And he cried out to the man of God who had arrived from Judah, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Because you were not obedient to the mouth of the Lord, and you did not keep the commandment that the Lord your God instructed to you,
22 A kom tuh foloko ac mongo acn ma El wuli kom in tiana mongo we. Ke ma inge kom ac anwuki, ac monum ac fah tia pukpuki inkulyuk lun sou lom.”
and you turned back, and ate bread, and drank water in the place where he commanded you that you should not eat bread, nor drink water: your dead body shall not be carried back to the sepulcher of your fathers.”
23 Tukun eltal mongo tari, mwet palu matu sac akoela donkey natul ah nu sin mwet palu lun Judah,
And when he had eaten and had drunk, he saddled his donkey for the prophet whom he had led back.
24 na el sroang nu fac ac som. Ac ke el kasrusr inkanek uh, lion soko sonol ac unilya. Na manol oanna inkanek ah, ac donkey soko ac lion soko ah tu na kac.
And when he had departed, a lion found him along the way, and it killed him, and his dead body was left upon the road. Now the donkey was standing beside him. And the lion was standing beside the dead body.
25 Oasr kutu mwet fahsryak in acn sacn, ac liye mano sac oanna inkanek ah, ac lion soko ah tu siska. Elos alukela ac som na nu Bethel, ac fahkak ma elos liye ah.
And behold, men who were passing by saw the dead body lying in the road, with the lion standing beside the body. And they went and made it widely known in the city where that elderly prophet was living.
26 Ke mwet palu matu sac lohng ma fwack inge, el fahk, “Pa ingan mwet palu se ma tia akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, na pa LEUM GOD El supwala lion soko in sruokilya ac unilya, in oana ma LEUM GOD El fahk kac.”
And when that prophet, who had led him back from the way, had heard it, he said: “It is the man of God, who was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord. And the Lord has delivered him to the lion. And it has torn him apart and killed him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.”
27 Na el fahk nu sin wen natul, “Akoela donkey nutik.” Ac eltal akoela,
And he said to his sons, “Saddle a donkey for me.” And when they had saddled it,
28 na el som ac konauk mano sac oan inkanek ah, ac donkey soko ac lion soko ah srakna tu siska. Lion soko ah tiana kangla mano sac, ku anwuk nu sin donkey soko ah.
and he had departed, he found the dead body lying on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside the dead body. The lion did not eat from the dead body, nor did it harm the donkey.
29 Mwet palu matu sac srukak mano sac nu fin donkey natul, ac folokunla nu Bethel in asor kac, ac pikinya.
Then the prophet took the dead body of the man of God, and he placed it upon the donkey, and returning, he brought it into the city of the elderly prophet, so that he might mourn for him.
30 El pikinya inkulyuk lun sou lal sifacna, na el ac wen natul asor kacl ac fahk, “O, ma lik, ma lik!”
And he placed his dead body in his own sepulcher. And they mourned for him, saying: “Alas! Alas! My brother!”
31 Tukun pukpuki mwet sac, mwet palu matu sac fahk nu sin wen natul, “Nga fin misa, komtal pikinyuwi na inkulyuk se inge, ac filiyuwi siskal.
And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: “When I will have died, bury me in the sepulcher in which the man of God was buried. Place my bones beside his bones.
32 Kas ma el fahk lain loang se in acn Bethel, ac lain nien alu nukewa in siti srisrik in acn Samaria, oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, pwayena lah ma inge nukewa ac fah akpwayeyuk.”
For certainly, the word will arrive, which he predicted by the word of the Lord, against the altar, which is in Bethel, and against all the shrines of the high places, which are in the cities of Samaria.”
33 Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel el tiana forla liki ouiyen moul koluk lal, a el srakna sulela mwet tol lal sin kutena sou tuh elos in kulansap ke loang ma el musaela. Ac el mosrwela kutena mwet su lungse in mwet tol.
After these words, Jeroboam did not turn back from his very evil way. Instead, to the contrary, he made priests for the high places out of the least of the people. Whosoever was willing, he filled his hand, and he became a priest of the high places.
34 Ma koluk se lal inge pa kunausla mwet lal, ac ikruiya tokosrai lal.
And for this reason, the house of Jeroboam sinned, and was uprooted, and was wiped from the face of the earth.
