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.
Behold, a man of God came out of Judah by the LORD’s word to Bethel; and Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.
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.
He cried against the altar by the LORD’s word, and said, “Altar! Altar! The LORD says: ‘Behold, a son will be born to David’s house, Josiah by name. On you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and they will burn men’s bones 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.
He gave a sign the same day, saying, “This is the sign which the LORD has spoken: Behold, the altar will be split apart, and the ashes that are on it will be poured out.”
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.
When the king heard the saying of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam put out his hand from the altar, saying, “Seize him!” His hand, which he put out against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it back again to himself.
5 Nidreatse ka i kitreliy naho nidoañe boak’amy kitreliy o laveno’eo ty amy viloñe nitaroñe’ indatin’ Añaharey tie nitsara’ Iehovày.
The altar was also split apart, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the LORD’s word.
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.
The king answered the man of God, “Now intercede for the favour of the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again.” The man of God interceded with the LORD, and the king’s hand was restored to him again, and became as it was before.
7 Aa hoe i mpanjakay am’ indatin’ Añaharey; Mihova amako ao, hanintsiña’o, le ho tolorako ravoravo.
The king said to the man of God, “Come home with me and refresh yourself, 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.
The man of God said to the king, “Even if you gave me half of your house, I would not go in with you, neither would I eat bread nor drink 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 was it commanded me by the LORD’s word, saying, ‘You shall eat no bread, drink no water, and don’t return by the way that 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 didn’t return by the way that he came to Bethel.
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 an old prophet lived in Bethel, and one of his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel. They also told their father the words which he had spoken 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.
Their father said to them, “Which way did he go?” Now his sons had seen which way the man of God went, who came from Judah.
13 Le hoe re amo ana-dahi’eo: Adiaño ho ahy i borìkey. Aa le nidiañe’ iereo i borìkey naho niningira’e;
He said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” So they saddled the donkey for him; and he rode 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.
He went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak. He said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” He said, “I am.”
15 Aa le hoe re tama’e, Molia mb’amako vaho mikamà mofo.
Then he said to him, “Come home with me and eat bread.”
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.
He said, “I may not return with you, nor go in with you. I will not eat bread or drink 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 it was said to me by the LORD’s word, ‘You shall eat no bread or drink water there, and don’t turn again to go by the way that 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.
He said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are; and an angel spoke to me by the LORD’s word, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.’” He lied to him.
19 Aa le nindreza’e fimpoly, nikama mofo naho ninon-drano.
So he went back with him, ate bread in his house, and drank water.
20 Ie niambesatse am-pandambañañe eo, le niheo amy mpitoky ninday aze noliy ty tsara’ Iehovà.
As they sat at the table, the LORD’s word came to the prophet who brought 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 he cried out to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “The LORD says, ‘Because you have been disobedient to the LORD’s word, and have not kept the commandment which the LORD your God commanded you,
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 came back, and have eaten bread and drank water in the place of which he said to you, “Eat no bread, and drink no water,” your body will not come to the tomb of 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.
After he had eaten bread and after he drank, he saddled the donkey for the prophet whom he had brought 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.
When he had gone, a lion met him by the way and killed him. His body was thrown on the path, and the donkey stood by it. The lion also stood 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.
Behold, men passed by and saw the body thrown on the path, and the lion standing by the body; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet lived.
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.
When the prophet who brought him back from the way heard of it, he said, “It is the man of God who was disobedient to the LORD’s word. Therefore the LORD has delivered him to the lion, which has mauled him and slain him, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke to him.”
27 Aa hoe ty natao’e amy ana’e rey: Diaño ho ahy i borikey. Aa le nidiañe’ iereo.
He said to his sons, saying, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddled it.
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.
He went and found his body thrown on the path, and the donkey and the lion standing by the body. The lion had not eaten the body nor mauled the donkey.
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.
The prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it on the donkey, and brought it back. He came to the city of the old prophet to mourn, and to bury him.
30 Natsalalampa’e amy kibori’ey i fañova’ey; le nandala’ iareo ami’ty hoe: Hoke, ry rahalahiko!
He laid his body in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, “Alas, 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.
After he had buried him, he spoke to his sons, saying, “When I am dead, bury me in the tomb in which the man of God is buried. Lay my bones beside 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 saying which he cried by the LORD’s word against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely happen.”
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 thing, Jeroboam didn’t turn from his evil way, but again made priests of the high places from amongst all the people. Whoever wanted to, he consecrated him, 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.
This thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off and to destroy it from off the surface of the earth.
