1 Bassekabaka 21
1 Awo ebyo bwe byaggwa, ne wabaawo ensonga ekwata ku nnimiro ya Nabosi Omuyezuleeri ey’emizabbibu, eyali eriraanye olubiri lwa Akabu kabaka wa Samaliya.
Zitatha izi, panachitika nkhani yokhudza Naboti wa ku Yezireeli amene anali ndi munda wamphesa ku Yezireeli, pafupi ndi nyumba ya mfumu Ahabu, mfumu ya ku Samariya.
2 Awo Akabu n’agamba Nabosi nti, “Mpa ennimiro yo ey’emizabbibu nnimiremu enva, nga bw’eriraanye olubiri lwange. Mu kifo kyayo nzija kukuwaamu ennimiro ey’emizabbibu endala, oba bw’onoosiima, nnaakusasulamu omuwendo ogugigyamu.”
Ahabu anawuza Naboti kuti, “Patse munda wako wa mpesa kuti ukhale munda wanga wa ndiwo zamasamba, popeza uli pafupi ndi nyumba yanga yaufumu. Mosinthana ndi mundawu ndidzakupatsa wina wabwino, kapena ngati ungafune, ndidzakupatsa ndalama pa mtengo wake wa mundawu.”
3 Nabosi n’amuddamu nti, “Kikafuuwe, nze okukuwa obusika bwa bajjajjange.”
Koma Naboti anayankha Ahabu kuti, “Pali Yehova, sindingakupatseni cholowa cha makolo anga.”
4 Awo Akabu n’addayo eka ng’annyogoze nnyo era nga munyiivu kubanga Nabosi Omuyezuleeri yamugamba nti, “Sijja kukuwa busika bwa bajjajjange.” N’agalamira ku kitanda kye nga yeesooza, n’agaana n’okulya.
Pamenepo Ahabu anapita ku nyumba yake, wachisoni ndi wokwiya chifukwa Naboti wa ku Yezireeli anamuwuza kuti, “Sindidzakupatsani cholowa cha makolo anga.” Ahabu anakagona pa bedi lake atayangʼana kumbali ndipo anakana chakudya.
5 Naye Yezeberi mukazi we n’ayingira, n’amubuuza nti, “Lwaki onnyogoze nnyo bw’otyo n’okulya n’otalya?”
Yezebeli mkazi wake analowa ndipo anamufunsa kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani mukuoneka achisoni? Chifukwa chiyani simukufuna chakudya?”
6 N’amuddamu nti, “Kubanga ŋŋambye Nabosi Omuyezuleeri antunze ennimiro ye ey’emizabbibu, oba bw’anaasiima muwaanyiseemu ennimiro endala. Naye agambye nti, ‘Sijja kukuwa nnimiro yange ey’emizabbibu.’”
Ahabu anayankha mkazi wake kuti, “Chifukwa chake nʼchakuti ine ndinamuwuza Naboti wa ku Yezireeli kuti, ‘Gulitse munda wako wa mpesa kapena ngati ungakonde ine ndidzakupatsa munda wina wabwino mʼmalo mwake.’ Koma iye anandiyankha kuti, ‘Sindidzakupatsani munda wanga wa mpesa.’”
7 Yezeberi mukazi we n’amugamba nti, “Bw’otyo bwe weeyisa nga kabaka wa Isirayiri? Golokoka olye! Ddamu amaanyi. Nzija kukufunira ennimiro ya Nabosi Omuyezuleeri ey’emizabbibu.”
Ndipo Yezebeli mkazi wake anati, “Kodi umu ndi mmene mumachitira ngati mfumu ya Israeli? Dzukani, idyani! Sangalalani. Ine ndidzakutengerani munda wamphesa wa Naboti wa ku Yezireeli.”
8 Awo Yezeberi n’awandiika amabaluwa mu linnya lya Akabu, n’agassaako akabonero ke, era n’agaweereza eri abakadde n’abakungu abaabeeranga mu kibuga kya Nabosi.
Choncho Yezebeli analemba makalata mʼdzina la Ahabu, nawadinda chidindo cha mfumu, nawatumiza makalatawo kwa akuluakulu ndi kwa anthu olemekezeka amene ankakhala ndi Naboti mu mzinda mwake.
9 Mu bbaluwa ezo n’awandiika nti, “Mulangirire okusiiba, mutuuze Nabosi mu kifo abantu bonna we bamulengerera,
Mʼmakalatamo Yezebeli analemba kuti: “Lengezani kuti anthu asale chakudya ndipo muyike Naboti pa malo aulemu pakati pa anthu.
10 era mutuuze abasajja babiri okumwolekera bamuwaayirize nti akolimidde Katonda ne kabaka. Oluvannyuma mumutwale ebweru mumukube amayinja, mumutte.”
Koma muyike anthu awiri oyipa mtima moyangʼanana naye ndipo iwo achitire umboni kuti watemberera Mulungu ndiponso mfumu. Ndipo mumutulutse ndi kumuponya miyala ndi kumupha.”
11 Awo abakadde n’abakungu abaabeeranga mu kibuga ekyo ne bakola nga Yezeberi bwe yalagira mu mabaluwa ge yabawandiikira.
Choncho akuluakulu ndi anthu olemekezeka amene ankakhala ndi Naboti mu mzinda mwake anachita monga analamulira Yezebeli mʼmakalata amene anawalembera.
12 Ne balangirira okusiiba era ne batuuza Nabosi mu kifo w’alabikira obulungi mu bantu.
Iwo analengeza kuti anthu asale chakudya ndipo anayika Naboti pa malo aulemu pakati pa anthu.
13 Abasajja babiri ne bajja ne batuula okumwolekera ne bamuwaayiriza mu maaso g’abantu nga bagamba nti, “Nabosi yakolimidde Katonda ne kabaka.” Awo abantu ne bamutwala ebweru w’ekibuga ne bamukuba amayinja ne bamutta.
Ndipo anthu awiri oyipa anabwera nakhala moyangʼanana naye ndipo anamunenera zoyipa Naboti pamaso pa anthu, ponena kuti, “Naboti watemberera Mulungu ndiponso mfumu.” Choncho anamutulutsira kunja kwa mzinda ndi kumuponya miyala ndi kumupha.
14 Ne batumira Yezeberi nti, “Nabosi akubiddwa amayinja era afudde.”
Atatero anatumiza mawu kwa Yezebeli akuti, “Naboti amuponya miyala ndipo wafa.”
15 Amangwago Yezeberi bwe yawulira nti Nabosi yakubibwa amayinja era n’afa, n’agamba Akabu nti, “Golokoka otwale ennimiro ey’emizabbibu eya Nabosi Omuyezuleeri gye yagaana okukuguza, kubanga takyali mulamu, mufu.”
Yezebeli atangomva kuti Naboti amuponya miyala ndipo wafa, iye anakamuwuza Ahabu kuti, “Dzukani, katengeni munda wamphesa wa Naboti wa ku Yezireeli umene anawukaniza kukugulitsani. Naboti sali moyonso, koma wafa.”
16 Akabu bwe yawulira nti Nabosi afudde n’agolokoka n’aserengeta okutwala ennimiro ya Nabosi Omuyezuleeri ey’emizabbibu.
Ahabu atamva kuti Naboti wafa, ananyamuka kukatenga munda wamphesa wa Naboti.
17 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Eriya Omutisubi nti,
Ndipo Yehova anayankhula ndi Eliya wa ku Tisibe kuti,
18 “Serengeta eri Akabu kabaka wa Isirayiri afugira mu Samaliya, kubanga laba ali mu nnimiro ey’emizabbibu eya Nabosi era agenze okugitwala.
“Nyamuka, pita ukakumane ndi Ahabu, mfumu ya Israeli amene amalamulira ku Samariya. Pano ali ku munda wamphesa wa Naboti kumene wapita kuti akatenge mundawo kuti ukhale wake.
19 Mugambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, Tosse omusajja n’okutwala n’otwala obugagga bwe?’ Olyoke omugambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti: Mu kifo embwa wezikombedde omusaayi gwa Nabosi, embwa mwezirikombera ogugwo.’”
Ukamuwuze kuti: ‘Yehova akuti, Kodi siwapha munthu ndi kumulandanso munda wake?’ Ndipo ukamuwuzenso kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Pamalo pamene agalu ananyambita magazi a Naboti, pamalo pomwepo agalu adzanyambita magazi ako, inde, akonso!’”
20 Akabu n’agamba Eriya nti, “Onsanze, ggwe omulabe wange!” N’amuddamu nti, “Nkusanze, kubanga weewaddeyo okukola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama.
Ahabu anati kwa Eliya, “Tsono wandipeza, iwe mdani wanga!” Eliya anayankha kuti, “Inde ndakupezani chifukwa mwadzigulitsa kuti muchite zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova.
21 Mukama agamba nti, ‘Laba ndikuleetako akabi, ndimalawo ennyumba yo yonna, era ndiggya ku Akabu buli musajja yenna mu Isirayiri, omuddu n’atali muddu.
Iye akuti ‘Taonani, ine ndidzabweretsa mavuto pa iwe. Ndidzawononga kotheratu zidzukulu zako ndi kuchotsa mu Israeli munthu aliyense wamwamuna wa banja la Ahabu, kapolo kapena mfulu.
22 Ndifuula ennyumba yo okuba nga eya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, n’eya Baasa mutabani wa Akiya, olw’okusunguwaza kwe wansunguwaza bwe wayonoonyesa Isirayiri.’
Ndidzawononga nyumba yako monga momwe ndinawonongera nyumba ya Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati ndiponso ngati nyumba ya Baasa mwana wa Ahiya, chifukwa wandikwiyitsa Ine ndi kuchimwitsa Israeli.’
23 “Ate era n’eri Yezeberi Mukama bw’ati bw’agamba nti, ‘Embwa ziririira Yezeberi okuliraana bbugwe w’e Yezuleeri.
“Ndipo kunena za Yezebeli, Yehova akuti, ‘Agalu adzadya Yezebeli mʼmbali mwa khoma la Yezireeli.’
24 Embwa ziririira omuntu yenna owa Akabu alifiira mu kibuga, ate ennyonyi zirye abo bonna abalifiira ku ttale.’”
“Agalu adzadya munthu aliyense wa nyumba ya Ahabu amene adzafere mu mzinda, ndipo mbalame za mu mlengalenga zidzadya aliyense wofera ku thengo.”
25 Tewali musajja eyafaanana nga Akabu, eyeewaayo okukola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama ng’awalirizibwa mukazi we Yezeberi.
(Kunalibe munthu ngati Ahabu, amene anadzigulitsa kuchita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova, amene anakopedwa ndi mkazi wake Yezebeli.
26 Yakola eby’ekivve ng’agoberera ebifaananyi bya bakatonda, ng’Abamoli be yagoba mu maaso g’abantu ba Isirayiri bwe baakolanga.
Iye anachita zonyansa kwambiri popembedza mafano, monga mmene ankachitira Aamori amene Yehova anawachotsa pamene Aisraeli ankafika).
27 Awo Akabu bwe yawulira ebigambo ebyo, n’ayuza engoye ze, n’ayambala ebibukutu n’okusiiba n’asiiba. N’agalamira mu bibukutu, era n’atambula nga yeewombeese.
Ahabu atamva mawu amenewa, anangʼamba zovala zake, navala ziguduli ndi kusala chakudya. Anagona pa ziguduli, nayenda pangʼonopangʼono.
28 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Eriya Omutisubi nti,
Pamenepo Yehova anayankhula ndi Eliya wa ku Tisibe kuti,
29 “Olabye Akabu bwe yeewombeese mu maaso gange? Olw’okubanga yeewombeese mu maaso gange, sirireeta kabi ako mu mirembe gye, naye ndikaleeta mu nnyumba ye mu mirembe gya mutabani we.”
“Kodi waona mmene Ahabu wadzichepetsera pamaso panga? Chifukwa wadzichepetsa, sindidzabweretsa mavuto amenewa pa nthawi ya moyo wake, koma ndidzawabweretsa pa nyumba yake pa nthawi ya mwana wake.”
