1 Mpanjaka 13
1 Ie amy zao nihirike e Iehoda ty ondatin’ Añahare, ami’ty tsara’ Iehovà, mb’e Betele mb’eo; ie nijohañe marine’ i kitreliy t’Iarovame hañemboke.
Then a man of God came from Judah by the order of the Lord to Beth-el, where Jeroboam was by the altar, burning offerings.
2 Le nikoihe’e amy kitreliy ty tsara’ Iehovà, ami’ty hoe: Ry kitrely, kitrely, hoe t’Iehovà: Maharendreha te hasamak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Davide ty ana-dahy; Iosià ty tahina’e; le ama’o ty hisoroña’e o mpisoron-toets’ abo misoroñe ama’oo le haforehetse ama’o eo ty taola’ondaty.
And by the order of the Lord he made an outcry against the altar, saying, O altar, altar, the Lord has said, From the seed of David will come a child, named Josiah, and on you he will put to death the priests of the high places, who are burning offerings on you, and men's bones will be burned on you.
3 Nanolo-biloñe ka re amy andro zay, ami’ty hoe: Zao ty viloñe nitsarà’ Iehovà; Inao! ho riateñe o kitrelio vaho hadoañe ty lavenok’ ama’e.
The same day he gave them a sign, saying, This is the sign which the Lord has given: See, the altar will be broken and the burned waste on it overturned.
4 Aa ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty saontsi’ indatin’Añaharey, i nikoiha’e amy kitreli’ i Beteleiy, le natora-kitsi’ Iarovame boak’ amy kitreliy ty fità’e nanao ty hoe: Fihino re. Fe niforejeje i sirañe natora-kitsi’ey, le tsy nahafitarik’ aze mb’ ama’e.
Then the king, hearing the man of God crying out against the altar at Beth-el, put out his hand from the altar, saying, Take him prisoner. And his hand, stretched out against him, became dead, and he had no power of pulling it back.
5 Nidreatse ka i kitreliy naho nidoañe boak’amy kitreliy o laveno’eo ty amy viloñe nitaroñe’ indatin’ Añaharey tie nitsara’ Iehovày.
And the altar was broken and the burned waste on it overturned; this was the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.
6 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i mpanjakay am’ indatin’ Añaharey: Mihalalia am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ho ahiko, misolohoa ho ahy hañereña’e ty sirako. Aa le nihalaly am’ Iehovà indatin’ Añaharey naho niareñe ty fità’ i mpanjakay vaho nibalike ho amy do’e taoloy.
Then the king made answer and said to the man of God, Make a prayer now for the grace of the Lord your God, and for me, that my hand may be made well. And in answer to the prayer of the man of God, the king's hand was made well again, as it was before.
7 Aa hoe i mpanjakay am’ indatin’ Añaharey; Mihova amako ao, hanintsiña’o, le ho tolorako ravoravo.
And the king said to the man of God, Come with me to my house for food and rest, and I will give you a reward.
8 Le hoe t’indatin’Añahare amy mpanjakay: Ndra te natolo’o ahy ty an-tsasa’ i anjomba’oy, tsy ho nindrezako vaho tsy ho nihinañe mofo ndra rano ami’ ty toetse toy.
But the man of God said to the king, Even if you gave me half of all you have, I would not go in with you, and I would not take food or a drink of water in this place;
9 Amy te nafanto’ i tsara’ Iehovày amako ty hoe: Ko mikama mofo ndra rano vaho ko mimpoly mb’amy lalañe nimbà’o mb’eoy.
For so I was ordered by the word of the Lord, who said, You are not to take food or a drink of water, and you are not to go back the way you came.
10 Aa le nionjomb’ an-dalan-kafa mb’eo re, tsy nimpoly mb’amy lalañe nionjona’e mb’e Betele mb’eoy.
So he went another way, and not by the way he came to Beth-el.
11 Ie amy zao nimoneñe e Betele ao ty androanavy mpitoky; le niheo ama’e mb’eo ty ana’e raik’ nitalily ze hene fitoloñañe nanoe’ indatin’ Añaharey e Betele ao; naho nitalilie’ iereo an-drae’ iareo ka i lañonañe sinaontsi’e amy mpanjakaiy.
Now there was an old prophet living in Beth-el; and one of his sons came and gave him word of all the man of God had done that day in Beth-el, and they gave their father an account of the words he had said to the king.
12 Le hoe ty nanoen-drae’ am’iareo; Nimb’aia re? Toe nitrea’ o ana’eo ty lala’ nomba’ indatin’ Añahare hirik’e Iehoday.
Then their father said to them, Which way did he go? Now his sons had seen which way the man of God who came from Judah had gone.
13 Le hoe re amo ana-dahi’eo: Adiaño ho ahy i borìkey. Aa le nidiañe’ iereo i borìkey naho niningira’e;
So the prophet said to his sons, Make ready an ass for me. So they made an ass ready, and he got on it,
14 vaho niheañe’e indatin’ Añaharey, le nitendrek’ aze niambesatse ambane’ ty kobaiñe eo, vaho nanoa’e ty hoe: Ihe hao indatin’Añahare boake Iehoday? Le hoe re, Ie.
And went after the man of God, and came up with him while he was seated under an oak-tree. And he said to him, Are you the man of God who came from Judah? And he said, I am.
15 Aa le hoe re tama’e, Molia mb’amako vaho mikamà mofo.
Then he said to him, Come back to the house with me and have a meal.
16 Le hoe re: Tsy hindre himpoly ama’o iraho, vaho tsy hitraofako lia; mbore tsy hiharo hihinañe mofo ndra hinon-drano ama’o an-toetse atoy.
But he said, I may not go back with you or go into your house; and I will not take food or a drink of water with you in this place;
17 Fa hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà nitsaraeñ’ amako: Tsy hikama mofo ndra hikama rano ao irehe, ndra mimpoly amy lalañe nionjona’o mb’eoy.
For the Lord said to me, You are not to take food or water there, or go back again by the way you came.
18 Le hoe re ama’e: Mpitoky manahak’ azo ka ‘ni-raho; le nitsara amako ty anjely amy tsara’ Iehovày, ty hoe: Ampolio mb’añ’ anjomba’o mb’eo re hikama mofo naho hinon-drano; inay ty lañi’e.
Then he said to him, I am a prophet like you; and an angel said to me by the word of the Lord, Take him back with you and give him food and water. But he said false words to him.
19 Aa le nindreza’e fimpoly, nikama mofo naho ninon-drano.
So he went back with him, and had a meal in his house and a drink of water.
20 Ie niambesatse am-pandambañañe eo, le niheo amy mpitoky ninday aze noliy ty tsara’ Iehovà.
But while they were seated at the table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet who had taken him back;
21 Le napaza’e ty hoe am’ indatin’ Añahare hirik’e Iehoday, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà; Amy te ihe nanjehatse i falie’ Iehovày, naho tsy nambena’o i fañè nafanto’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy,
And crying out to the man of God who came from Judah, he said, The Lord says, Because you have gone against the voice of the Lord, and have not done as you were ordered by the Lord,
22 te mone nibalike naho nikama mofo vaho ninon-drano an-toetse nitsarae’e ty hoe: Ko mikama mofo naho ko minon-drano; le tsy higodañe an-kiborin-droae’o ao ty fañova’o.
But have come back, and have taken food and water in this place where he said you were to take no food or water; your dead body will not be put to rest with your fathers.
23 Aa ie amy zao, naho fa nikama mofo naho ninon-drano, le nadia’e ho aze i borìke’ey, ho a i mpitoky nampihovae’ey.
Now after the meal he made ready the ass for him, for the prophet whom he had taken back.
24 Aa ie nienga mb’eo, nitendreke liona nanjevoñ’ aze, ie nañifike i fañova’ey an-dalañey; nitsangañe añ’ila’e eo i borìkey, vaho nijohañe marine’ i fañovay i lionay.
And he went on his way; but on the road a lion came rushing at him and put him to death; and his dead body was stretched in the road with the ass by its side, and the lion was there by the body.
25 Inge amy zao ondaty niary eio, ie niisa’ iareo i fañova navokovoko an-dalañey, naho i liona nijagarodoñe marine’ i fañovaiy, le nimb’eo nitalily an-drova nimoneña’ i androanavy mpitokiy.
And some men, going by, saw the body stretched out in the road with the lion by its side; and they came and gave news of it in the town where the old prophet was living.
26 Aa ie jinanji’ i mpitoky ninday aze moly boak’ amy lalañeiy, le hoe ty asa’e: Ie t’indatin’ Añahare nanjehatse i tsara’ Iehovày, toly ndra natolo’ Iehovà amy lionay, nirimite’e naho vinono’e ty amy tsara’ Iehovà nafe’e ama’ey.
Then the prophet who had made him come back, hearing it, said, It is the man of God, who went against the word of the Lord; that is why the Lord has given him to the lion to be wounded to death, as the Lord said.
27 Aa hoe ty natao’e amy ana’e rey: Diaño ho ahy i borikey. Aa le nidiañe’ iereo.
And he said to his sons, Make ready the ass for me. And they did so.
28 Ie nimb’eo le nanjo i fañovay te nahifik’ an-dalañe eo, naho i borìkey, vaho i liona nijohañe marine’ i fañovaiy. Tsy nihane’ i lionay i fañovay vaho tsy nirimite’e i borìkey.
And he went and saw the dead body stretched out in the road with the ass and the lion by its side: the lion had not taken the body for its food or done any damage to the ass.
29 Rinambe’ i mpitokiy ty fañova’ indatin’ Añaharey, le nasampe’e amy borìkey, vaho nendese’e nibalike mb’eo; ie nivotrak’ an-drova’ i androanavy mpitokiy, le nandala naho nandentek’ aze.
Then the prophet took up the body of the man of God and put it on the ass and took it back; and he came to the town to put the body to rest with weeping.
30 Natsalalampa’e amy kibori’ey i fañova’ey; le nandala’ iareo ami’ty hoe: Hoke, ry rahalahiko!
And he put the body in the resting-place made ready for himself, weeping and sorrowing over it, saying, O my brother!
31 Ie nandentek’ aze, le nafanto’e amy ana’e rey ty hoe, Naho mikenkan-draho, aleveño amy kibory nandentehañe indatin’ Añaharey; apoho marine’ o taola’eo o taolakoo.
And when he had put it to rest, he said to his sons, When I am dead, then you are to put my body into the earth with the body of this man of God, and put me by his bones so that my bones may be kept safe with his bones.
32 Amy te tsy mete tsy hifetsake i tsara’ Iehovà nipazahe’e amy kitrely e Beteley naho amo fonga anjomba an-toets’ abo an-drova’ i Someroneo.
For the outcry he made by the word of the Lord against the altar in Beth-el and against all the houses of the high places in the towns of Samaria, will certainly come about.
33 Ie añe, tsy nibalintoa amy sata-rati’ey t’Iarovame, fa nanoe’e mpisoroñe an-toets’ abo o boak’ am’ondaty tsotra iabio; toe noriza’e ho mpisoroñe an-toets’ abo ze hene nimete.
After this Jeroboam, not turning back from his evil ways, still made priests for his altars from among all the people; he made a priest of anyone desiring it, so that there might be priests of the high places.
34 Ie nampanan-kakeo ty anjomba’ Iarovame, hañitoañe aze, naho hamongorañ’ aze ambone’ ty tane toy.
And this became a sin in the family of Jeroboam, causing it to be cut off and sent to destruction from the face of the earth.
