< Boqorradii Labaad 1 >
1 Oo markii Axaab dhintay dabadeed ayaa reer Moo'aab ku caasiyoobeen dalka Israa'iil.
Ngemva kokufa kuka-Ahabi, amaMowabi ahlamukela u-Israyeli.
2 Oo Axasyaahna wuxuu ka dhacay daaqaddii qolkiisii sare oo Samaariya ku yiil, wuuna bukooday, markaasuu wargeeyayaal diray, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Taga oo Bacal Sebuub oo ah ilaaha reer Ceqroon waxaad ii soo weyddiisaan bal inaan buktadan ka bogsanayo iyo in kale.
U-Ahaziya wayewele embotsheni yendlu yakhe engaphezulu eSamariya walimala. Wathumela izithunywa, wathi kuzo, “Hambani liyebuza kuBhali-Zebhubhi, unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni, ukuthi kambe ngizasila yini kulokhu kulimala na.”
3 Laakiinse malaa'igtii Rabbigu waxay ku tidhi Eliiyaah kii reer Tishbii, Kac oo ka hor tag wargeeyayaasha boqorka Samaariya, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, War ma Ilaah baan joogin dalka Israa'iil, oo saas aawadeed baad Bacal Sebuub wax u soo weyddiinaysaan?
Kodwa ingilosi kaThixo yathi ku-Elija umThishibi, “Suka uyehlangabeza izithunywa zenkosi yaseSamariya uyezibuza ukuthi, ‘Kambe yikuthi akuselaNkulunkulu ko-Israyeli na ukuze uyehlahlula kuBhali-Zebhubhi, unkulunkulu wase-Ekroni?’
4 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Sariirta aad fuushay ka soo degan maysid, laakiinse hubaal waad dhimanaysaa. Dabadeedna Eliiyaah waa iska tegey.
Ngakho uThixo uthi: ‘Awuyikusuka kulowombheda ogulela kuwo. Ngempela uzakufa!’”
5 Kolkaasaa wargeeyayaashii isagii ku soo noqdeen, oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaad u soo noqoteen?
Ekubuyeleni kwezithunywa enkosini, yazibuza yathi, “Kungani selibuyile na?”
6 Oo iyana waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, War nin baa naga hor yimid, oo wuxuu nagu yidhi, Taga, oo boqorkii idin soo diray ku noqda, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, War ma Ilaah baan joogin dalka Israa'iil, oo saas aawadeed baad u cid diranaysaa in wax la soo weyddiiyo Bacal Sebuub oo ah ilaaha reer Ceqroon? Haddaba sariirta aad fuushay ka soo degan maysid, laakiinse hubaal waad dhimanaysaa.
Izithunywa zaphendula zathi, “Kulendoda esihlangabezileyo yathi kithi, ‘Buyelani enkosini elithumileyo liyeyitshela ukuthi, “Ilizwi likaThixo lithi: Kungenxa yokuthi akulaNkulunkulu yini ko-Israyeli okubangele ukuthi uthumele abantu ukuyahlahlula kuBhali-Zebhubhi, unkulunkulu we-Ekroni na? Ngakho awuyikuvuka kulowombheda olele kuwo. Ngempela uzakufa!”’”
7 Oo isna wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Ninkii idinka hor yimid oo waxakan idiin sheegay nin caynkee ah buu ahaa?
Inkosi yabuza izithunywa yathi, “Ngumuntu onjani lowo olihlangabezileyo waselitshela lokhu?”
8 Oo iyana waxay isagii ugu jawaabeen, Wuxuu ahaa nin xaad badan, oo suun meged ahna dhexduu ku xidhnaa. Markaasuu yidhi, Kaasu waa Eliiyaah kii reer Tishbii.
Izithunywa zaphendula zathi, “Yindoda ebigqoke isigqoko soboya ekhalweni ibophe ngozwezwe.” Inkosi yathi, “Lowo ngu-Elija umThishibi.”
9 Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu u diray sirkaal konton xukuma oo wata kontonkiisii ninba. Isna kor buu ugu baxay, oo bal eeg, buur korkeed buu fadhiyey, oo intuu la hadlay buu ku yidhi, War nin yahow Ilaah, boqorkii wuxuu kugu soo yidhi, Soo deg oo kaalay.
Inkosi yasithumela ku-Elija induna yebutho labantu bayo abangamatshumi amahlanu. Induna yebutho yakhwela yaya ku-Elija, owayehlezi phezu koqaqa, yafika yathi kuye, “Muntu kaNkulunkulu, inkosi ithi, ‘Yehla!’”
10 Oo Eliiyaahna wuxuu ugu jawaabay sirkaalkii kontonka nin xukumay, Haddaan nin Ilaah ahay, samada dab ha ka soo dego, oo ha baabbi'iyo adiga iyo kontonkaaga ninba. Kolkaasaa waxaa samada ka soo degay dab, oo wuxuu wada baabbi'iyey isagii iyo kontonkiisii ninba.
U-Elija ephendula induna yebutho wathi, “Nxa ngingumuntu kaNkulunkulu, kakwehle umlilo ovela ezulwini ukuqothule wena kanye labantu bakho abangamatshumi amahlanu!” Lakanye wehla umlilo uvela ezulwini wayiqothula induna yebutho kanye labantu bayo.
11 Oo haddana wuxuu isagii u diray sirkaal kale oo konton nin xukuma ee isna wata kontonkiisii. Oo isna intuu u jawaabay buu ku yidhi, War nin yahow Ilaah, waxaa boqorkii kugu soo yidhi, Soo deg oo haddiiba kaalay.
Ngokubona lokho inkosi yathuma ku-Elija eyinye induna yebutho lamanye amadoda angamatshumi amahlanu. Induna yathi ku-Elija, “Muntu kaNkulunkulu, inkosi ithi, ‘Yehla khathesi.’”
12 Markaasaa Eliiyaah ugu jawaabay, Haddaan nin Ilaah ahay, samada dab ha ka soo dego, oo ha baabbi'iyo adiga iyo kontonkaaga ninba. Kolkaasaa waxaa samada ka soo degay dabkii Ilaah, oo wuxuu wada baabbi'iyey isagii iyo kontonkiisii ninba.
U-Elija waphendula wathi, “Nxa ngingumuntu kaNkulunkulu, kakwehle umlilo ovela ezulwini ukuqothule wena kanye labantu bakho!” Ngakho umlilo kaNkulunkulu wehla uvela ezulwini waqothula izinduna zamabutho ezakuqala zombili kanye labo bonke abantu bayo abangamatshumi amahlanu.
13 Oo haddana boqorkii wuxuu isagii u diray sirkaal saddexaad oo konton nin xukuma ee kontonkiisii nin wata. Oo sirkaalkii saddexaad oo kontonka nin xukumayna kor buu ugu baxay, oo intuu u yimid ayuu Eliiyaah hortiisa jilbo u dhacay oo baryay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War nin yahow Ilaah, waan ku baryayaaye naftayda iyo kontonkan nin oo addoommadaada ah naftooda hortaada qaali ha ku noqdeen.
Ngakho inkosi yathuma induna yebutho yesithathu labantu bayo abangamatshumi amahlanu. Induna yebutho yesithathu yakhwela yafika yaguqa ngamadolo phambi kuka-Elija yamncenga yathi, “Muntu kaNkulunkulu, akube lesihawu ngempilo yami leyamadoda la angamatshumi amahlanu, thina sizinceku zakho!
14 Waayo, bal eeg, dab baa samada ka soo degay oo wada baabbi'iyey labadii sirkaal oo iga soo horreeyey iyo kontomadoodiiba, laakiinse haatan naftaydu hortaada qaali ha ku noqoto.
Angithi uyabona, umlilo wehle uvela ezulwini waqothula izinduna zamabutho lamadoda angamatshumi amahlanu induna nganye. Kodwa manje akunakekele impilo yami!”
15 Markaasaa malaa'igtii Rabbigu waxay Eliiyaah ku tidhi, Tag oo isaga raac; hana ka cabsan. Kolkaasuu kacay oo intuu isagii la dhaadhacay ayuu boqorkii u tegey.
Ingilosi kaThixo yathi ku-Elija, “Yehla kanye layo induna; ungayesabi.” Ngakho u-Elija wasukuma wehla kanye lenduna waya enkosini.
16 Oo wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu ku leeyahay, Waxaad wargeeyayaal u soo dirtay inaad Bacal Sebuub oo ah ilaaha reer Ceqroon wax soo weyddiiso ee sababtu ma waxay tahay inaan dalka Israa'iil jirin Ilaah aad hadalkiisa wax weyddiiso? Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed sariirtii aad fuushay ka soo degan maysid, laakiinse hubaal waad dhimanaysaa.
Wasesithi enkosini, “Ilizwi likaThixo lithi: Kungenxa yokuthi akulaNkulunkulu yini ko-Israyeli ukuze uthume izithunywa ukuthi ziyohlahlula kuBhali-Zebhubhi, unkulunkulu we-Ekroni na? Ngenxa yesenzo sakho lesi, awuyikuvuka kulowombheda olele kuwo. Ngempela uzakufa!”
17 Markaasuu u dhintay sidii Eraygii Rabbiga oo Eliiyaah ku hadlay ahaa. Oo Yehooraam ayaa boqor ka noqday meeshiisii, oo taasuna waxay dhacday Yehooraam ina Yehooshaafaad oo boqor ka ahaa dalka Yahuudah sannaddiisii labaad, maxaa yeelay, isagu wiil ma uu lahayn.
Lakanye wafa, njengelizwi likaThixo elakhulunywa ngu-Elija. Njengoba u-Ahaziya wayengelandodana, ubukhosi bakhe bathathwa nguJoramu owaba yinkosi ngomnyaka wesibili wokubusa kukaJehoramu indodana kaJehoshafathi inkosi yakoJuda.
18 Haddaba Axasyaah falimihiisii kale ee uu sameeyey sow kuma qorna kitaabkii taariikhda boqorradii dalka Israa'iil?
Konke okwembali yokubusa kuka-Ahaziya, kanye lakwenzayo, akulotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli na?
