1 Mootota 21
1 Naabot namichi Yizriʼeel tokko Yizriʼeel keessaa, masaraa mootummaa Ahaab mooticha Samaariyaa biraa iddoo dhaabaa wayinii qaba ture.
Kwathi ngemva kwesikhathi esithile kwaba lesenzo esithile ngesivini sikaNabhothi umJezerili. Isivini leso sasiseJezerili, phansi kwesigodlo sika-Ahabi inkosi yaseSamariya.
2 Ahaabis Naabotiin akkana jedhe; “Sababii inni masaraa mootummaa kootti dhiʼaatuuf akka ani achi irra biqiltuu dhaabbadhuuf iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keetii naaf kenni. Qooda isaa ani iddoo dhaabaa wayinii kan isa caalu yookaan yoo ati feete gatii isaa maallaqa siifin kennaa.”
U-Ahabi wathi kuNabhothi, “Kahle mina ngilime imibhida yami esivinini sakho, njengoba siphansi kwesigodlo sami. Mina ngizakunika isivini esingcono, loba nxa uthanda, ngizakunika intengo ofisa ukusithengisa ngayo.”
3 Naabot garuu, “Dhaala abbootii koo siif kennuu irraa Waaqayyo na haa eegu” jedhee deebise.
Kodwa uNabhothi wathi, “UThixo kangavumi ukuba ngikunike ilifa labobaba.”
4 Kanaafuu sababii Naabot namichi Yizriʼeel sun “Ani dhaala abbootii koo siif hin kennu” jedheef Ahaab akka malee aaree dheekkamaa gara mana isaatti gale. Innis fuula isaa garagalfatee siree isaa irra ciise; waa nyaachuus ni dide.
Ngalokho u-Ahabi wabuyela ekhaya enyukubele njalo ethukuthele ngoba uNabhothi umJezerili wayethe, “Angizukukunika ilifa labobaba.” U-Ahabi walala embhedeni enyukubele wala lokudla.
5 Iizaabel niitiin isaas ol seentee, “Ati maaliif akkana aarta? Maaliif waa hin nyaanne?” jettee isa gaafatte.
Umkakhe uJezebheli wangena endlini wambuza wathi, “Kungani usineme kangaka? Kungani usala ukudla?”
6 Innis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Sababii Naabot namichi Yizriʼeel sun, ani, ‘Iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keetii natti gurguri, yookaan yoo ati feete qooda isaa iddoo dhaabaa wayinii biraa siifin kenna’ jennaaniin inni immoo, ‘Ani iddoo dhaabaa wayinii koo siif hin kennu’ naan jedheef.”
Yena wamphendula wathi, “Kungenxa yokuthi ngithe kuNabhothi umJezerili, ‘Ngithengisela isivini sakho; loba nxa ufuna, ngikunike esinye isivini esikhundleni salesi.’ Kodwa ungiphendule wathi ‘Angizukukunika isivini sami.’”
7 Niitiin isaa Iizaabelis, “Ati amma mootii Israaʼelii? Kaʼii buddeena nyaadhu! Gammadis. Ani iddoo dhaabaa wayinii Naabot namicha Yizriʼeel sanaa siifin kennaa” jetteen.
UJezebheli umka-Ahabi wathi, “Lokhu yikho okwenzayo njengenkosi yako-Israyeli na? Vuka udle! Uchelese. Mina ngizakuzuzela isivini sikaNabhothi umJezerili.”
8 Kanaafuu isheen maqaa Ahaabiin xalayoota barreessitee chaappaa isaatiin chaappeessitee maanguddootaa fi namoota bebeekamoo magaalaa Naabot keessa isa wajjin jiraatanitti ergite.
UJezebheli wasebhala izincwadi ngebizo lika-Ahabi, wazidinda ngophawu luka-Ahabi, wazithumela ebadaleni lakuzo izikhulu ezazihlala loNabhothi emzini wakibo.
9 Xalayoota sana keessattis akkana jettee barreessite: “Guyyaa soomaa tokko labsaatii akka Naabot waldaa keessa iddoo ol aanu taaʼu godhaa.
Ezincwadini lezo waloba ukuthi: “Memezelani usuku lokuzila libe selibeka uNabhothi esihlalweni esiqakathekileyo phakathi kwabantu.
10 Namoota kashlabboota lama fuula isaa dura teessisaatii akka isaan akka inni Waaqaa fi mooticha abaare itti rageessan godhaa. Ergasiis gad baasaatii dhagaadhaan tumaa isa ajjeesaa.”
Libe selihlalisa izigangi ezimbili maqondana laye lithi kazifakaze ngokuthi uthuke uNkulunkulu kanye lenkosi. Libe selimkhuphela phandle liyemkhanda ngamatshe limbulale.”
11 Kanaafuu maanguddoonnii fi namoonni bebbeekamoon magaalaa Naabot keessa jiraatan akkuma Iizaabel xalayoota barreessiteef keessatti isaan ajajje sana godhan.
Ngakho abadala lezikhulu ababehlala emzini kaNabhothi benza lokho ababekuthunywe nguJezebheli ngezincwadi ayebalobele zona.
12 Isaanis sooma labsanii akka Naabot waldaa keessa iddoo ol aanu taaʼu godhan.
Bamemezela isikhathi sokuzila bahlalisa uNabhothi esihlalweni esiphakemeyo phambi kwabantu.
13 Ergasii Kashlabboonni lama dhufanii fuula isaa dura tataaʼanii, “Naabot Waaqaa fi mooticha abaareera” jedhanii namoota duratti itti rageessan. Kanaafis magaalaa keessaa gad baasanii dhagaadhaan tumanii isa ajjeesan.
Kwasuka izigangi ezimbili zahlala phambi kwakhe zakhangelana laye zaqalisa ukwethesa uNabhothi amacala, zisithi, “UNabhothi uthuke uNkulunkulu kanye lenkosi.” Ngakho bamkhuphela ngaphandle komuzi bamkhanda ngamatshe bambulala.
14 Ergasii isaan, “Naabot dhagaan tumamee duʼeera” jedhanii Iizaabelitti ergaa ergan.
Basebethumela ilizwi kuJezebheli besithi, “UNabhothi ukhandwe ngamatshe njalo usefile.”
15 Iizaabelis akkuma akka Naabot dhagaan tumamee duʼe dhageesseen Ahaabiin, “Kaʼiitii iddoo dhaabaa wayinii Naabot namichi Yizriʼeel sitti gurguruu dide sana dhaali. Inni lubbuun hin jiru; duʼeeraa” jette.
Masinyazana uJezebheli esezwe ukuthi uNabhothi ukhandwe ngamatshe wabulawa, wathi ku-Ahabi, “Vuka uyethatha isivini sikaNabhothi umJezerili sona lesiyana alileyo ukukuthengisela sona. Uvele kasekho, usefile.”
16 Ahaabis akka Naabot duʼe dhageenyaan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii Naabot sana dhaaluuf kaʼee gad buʼe.
U-Ahabi uthe esizwa ukuthi uNabhothi kasekho, wavuka wayathatha lesosivini sikaNabhothi waseJezerili.
17 Dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Eeliyaas namicha Tishbii sanaa dhufe;
Ilizwi likaThixo leza ku-Elija umThishibi lisithi:
18 “Ahaab mooticha Israaʼel kan Samaariyaa keessa taaʼee bulchu sana arguuf gad buʼi. Inni amma lafa qotiisaa sana dhaaluuf gad buʼee iddoo dhaabaa wayinii Naabot keessa jira.
“Yehla uyehlangabeza u-Ahabi inkosi yako-Israyeli obusa eSamariya. Usesivinini sikaNabhothi, uye khona ukuze azithathele lesosivini.
19 Atis akkana jedhiin: ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha; ati nama tokko ajjeeftee qabeenya isaa hin dhaallee?’ Ergasiis akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Iddoo sareen dhiiga Naabot arraabde sanatti sareen dhiiga kees ni arraabdi; eeyyee dhugumaan dhiiga kees ni arraabdi!’”
Ufike uthi kuye, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Awubulalanga umuntu wathumba impahla yakhe na?’ Ubususithi kuyo, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo; Khonapho lapho izinja ezikhothele khona igazi likaNabhothi, kukhonapho kanye lapho izinja ezizakhothela khona elakho, yebo, elakho kanye!’”
20 Ahaabis Eeliyaasiin, “Yaa diina ko, ati na argatteerta!” jedhe. Innis deebisee akkana jedheen; “Sababii ati fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjechuuf of gurgurteef ani si argadheera.
U-Ahabi wathi ku-Elija, “Wo usungitholile, wena sitha sami!” U-Elija wamphendula wathi, “Yebo sengikutholile ngoba uzinikele ukwenza isono emehlweni kaThixo.
21 ‘Ani badiisa sitti nan fida. Sanyii kee illee nan balleessa; dhiira mana Ahaab, garbas taʼu birmaduu hunda Israaʼel keessaa nan balleessa.
‘Ngizokwehlisela ukubhujiswa. Ngizabhubhisa izizukulwane zakho ngisuse sonke isilisa sokucina ku-Ahabi ko-Israyeli loba yisigqili loba ngokhululekileyo.
22 Sababii ati aariif na kakaaftee fi akka Israaʼel cubbuu hojjetu gooteef ani mana kee akkuma mana Yerobiʼaam ilma Nebaat sanaatii fi akkuma mana Baʼishaan ilma Ahiiyaa sanaa nan godha.’
Indlu yakho ngizayenza lokhu engakwenza ekaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi lekaBhasha indodana ka-Ahija, ngoba ungithukuthelisile wabangela ukuthi u-Israyeli enze isono.’
23 “Waaʼee Iizaabelis Waaqayyo akkana jedha: ‘Dallaa dhagaa Yizriʼeel biratti saroonni Iizaabelin ni nyaatu.’
Ngalokho uThixo uthi ngoJezebheli: ‘Izinja zizamdabudabula uJezebheli zimdlele emidulini yaseJezerili.’
24 “Nama Ahaab kan magaalaa keessatti duʼu kam iyyuu sareetu nyaata; kan baadiyyaatti duʼu immoo allaattii samiitu nyaata.”
Izinja zizakudla bonke abangabaka-Ahabi abafela edolobheni, izinyoni zezulu zizakudla labo abazafela emaphandleni.”
25 Namni akka Ahaab isa niitii ofii isaa Iizaabeliin kakaafamee fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjechuudhaaf of gurgure sanaa gonkumaa hin jiru.
(Akuzange kube lendoda eyayifanana lo-Ahabi yena owazinikela ukuthi adale isono phambi kukaThixo, ekhuthazwa ngumkakhe uJezebheli.
26 Inni akkuma Amoorota kanneen Waaqayyo saba Israaʼel duraa ariʼee baase sanaa waaqota tolfamoo duukaa buʼuudhaan waan akka malee jibbisiisaa taʼe hojjete.
Waziphatha butshapha kakhulu elandela izithombe, njengama-Amori wona ayesuswe nguThixo phambi kuka-Israyeli.)
27 Ahaab yommuu dubbii kana dhagaʼetti uffata isaa tarsaasee, wayyaa gaddaa uffatee soome. Innis wayyaa gaddaatiin ciisaa, mataa buusees deemaa ture.
U-Ahabi wathi esizwa lawomazwi, wadabula izigqoko zakhe, wembatha amasaka wazila. Walala embethe amasaka wahamba edanile.
28 Dubbiin Waaqayyoos akkana jedhee gara Eeliyaas namicha Tishbii sanaa dhufe:
Ngemva kwalokho ilizwi likaThixo lathi ku-Elija umThishibi:
29 “Ati akka Ahaab fuula koo duratti gad of qabe argitee? Sababii inni gad of qabeef ani balaa kana bara isaa keessa hin fidu; garuu bara ilma isaa keessa mana isaatti nan fida.”
“Ukubonile na ukuthi u-Ahabi usezithobe kanganani phambi kwami? Ngenxa yokuzithoba kwakhe, angiyikumehlisela lobobubi esaphila, kodwa ngizakwehlisela endlini yakhe ensukwini zendodana yakhe.”
