1 Wafalme 13
1 Mtu wa Mungu alikuja tokea Yuda kwa neno la BWANA kule Betheli. Naye Yeroboamu alikuwa amesimama karibu na madhabahu ili kufukiza uvumba.
Pea vakai, naʻe haʻu ha tangata ʻoe ʻOtua mei Siuta ko e meʻa ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo ne hoko atu ki Peteli: pea naʻe tuʻu ʻa Selopoami ʻi he veʻe feilaulauʻanga ke ʻatu ʻae meʻa namu kakala.
2 Akalia kinyume na zile madhabahu kwa neno la BWANA: “Ee madhabahu, madhabahu” hivi ndivyo asemavyo BWANA, 'Tazama, mwana aitwaye Yosia atazaliwa katika familia ya Daudi, na juu yenu atawachinja makuhani ambao sasa wanafukiza uvumba mahali hapa pa juu kwa ajili yako. Juu yako watachoma mifupa ya watu.'”
Pea naʻa ne ui ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻE feilaulauʻanga, ʻe feilaulauʻanga! ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; Vakai ʻe fanauʻi ha tamasiʻi ki he fale ʻo Tevita, ko Sosaia ʻa hono hingoa; pea te ne ʻohake ʻiate koe ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻakinautolu ʻoku tutu meʻa namu kakala ʻiate koe, pea ʻe tutu ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi hui ʻoe tangata.”
3 Kisha mtu wa Mungu akatoa ishara siku hiyohiyo, akisema, “Hii ndiyo isharaya kwamba BWANA amesema: 'Tazama, madhabahu zitavuunjika, na majivu yaliyo juu yatamwagika.”
Pea naʻa ne tuku ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi he ʻaho pe ko ia, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hono fakaʻilonga eni kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova; Vakai, ʻe mahaehae ʻae feilaulauʻanga, pea ʻe lilingi atu ʻae efuefu ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai.”
4 Naye mfalme aliposikia kile mtu wa Mungu alichosema, kwamba amelia kinyume cha zile madhabahu kule Betheli, Yeroboamu akanyosha mkono wake kutoka madhabahuni, akisema, “mkamateni.” Ndipo ule mkono aliokuwa ameunyosha dhidi ya mtu wa Mungu ukakauka, kiasi kwamba hakuweza kuurudisha mwenyewe.
Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻae tuʻi ko Selo-Poami ki he lea ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻa ne kalanga ʻaki ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi Peteli, naʻa ne mafao atu hono nima mei he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne pehē, “Puke ia.” Pea ko hono nima, ʻaia naʻa ne mafao atu kiate ia, naʻe mate ia, pea naʻe ʻikai ai te ne faʻa toʻo mai ia kiate ia.
5 Na ile madhabahu ikavunjika vipande vipande, na yale majivu yakamwagika kutoka madhabahuni, kama ilivyokuwa imefafanuliwa kuwa ndiyo ishara ya kwamba mtu wa Mungu alikuwa amepewa kwa neno la BWANA.
Naʻe mahaehae foki ʻae feilaulauʻanga, pea naʻe lilingi ʻae efuefu mei he feilaulauʻanga, ʻo fakatatau mo e fakaʻilonga ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova.
6 Mfalme Yeroboamu akajibu akimwambia mtu wa Mungu, “Msihi BWANA, Mungu wako akupe neema ili uniombee, ili kwamba mkono wangu urejee kwangu tena.” Kwa hiyo mtu wa Mungu akamwomba BWANA, na mkono wa mfalme ukarejea katika hali yake tena, na ukawa kama ulivyokuwa mwanzoni.
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tuʻi ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Fakakolekole eni ki he fofonga ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, pea ke kole koeʻuhi ko au, ke toe fakamoʻui ʻa hoku nima.” Pea naʻe kole ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe toe fakamoʻui ʻae nima ʻoe tuʻi kiate ia, ʻo hangē ko ʻene teʻeki liliu.
7 Yule mfalme akamwambia mtu wa Mungu, “twende nyumbani kwangu upate chakula, nami nitakupa zawadi.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, “Ke ta ō mo au ki ʻapi, pea ke fakamālōlō ai, pea te u foaki ha totongi kiate koe.”
8 Yule mtu wa Mungu akamwambia mfalme, “Hata kama utanipa nusu ya miliki yako. staende na wewe, wala sitakula au kunywa maji mahali hapa,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ki he tuʻi, “Kapau te ke ʻomi kiate au hono vaeua ʻo ho fale, ka ʻe ʻikai te u ʻalu mo koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te u kai ha mā pe inu ha vai ʻi he potu ni;
9 kwa sababu BWANA ameniamuru kwa neno lake, 'hutakula mkate wala kunywa maji, wala kurudi kwa njia ulioijia.'”
He naʻe fekauʻi au ʻe he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, ʻoua naʻa kai ha mā, pe inu ha vai, pe te ke toe liliu mai ʻi he hala naʻa ke ʻalu ai.”
10 Kwa hiyo mtu wa Mungu akaondoka na hakurudi nyumbani kwa njia aliyokuja nayo huko Betheli.
Ko ia naʻa ne ʻalu ai ʻi he hala kehe, ʻo ʻikai [te ne ]liliu atu ʻi he hala naʻa ne haʻu ai ki Peteli.
11 Sasa kulikuwa na nabii mwingine mzee aliyekuwa akiishi Betheli, na mmoja wa wana wake akaja kumwambia mambo yote ambayo mtu wa Mungu amefanya siku hiyo kule Betheli. Wana wake wakamwambia pia maneno ambayo Yule mtu wa Mungu alimwambia mfalme.
Ka ko eni, naʻe ai ha motuʻa palōfita naʻe nofo ʻi Peteli; pea naʻe ʻalu ange ʻa hono ngaahi foha ʻo tala kiate ia ʻae ngaahi ngāue naʻe fai ʻe he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻi Peteli: ko e ngaahi lea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ki he tuʻi, naʻa nau fakahā ia foki ki heʻenau tamai.
12 Baba yao akawaambia, “Alienda kwa njia gani?” Wale wanawe walikuwa wamemwona yule mtu wa Mungu kutoka Yuda njia aliyotumia kurudi.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻenau tamai kiate kinautolu, ‘Naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala fē?” He kuo mamata ʻe hono ngaahi foha ki he hala naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta.
13 Kwa hiyo akawaambia wanawe, “Nitandikeni punda.” Kwa hiyo wakamtandikia punda naye akampanda.
Pea naʻa ne pehē ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻAi ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi. Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, pea naʻa ne heka ki ai,
14 Yule nabii mzee akamfuata yule mtu wa Mungu na akamkuta amekaa chini ya mti wa mwaloni; akamwambia, “Je, wewe ndiye mtu wa Mungu aliyetoka Yuda?” Naye akamjibu, “Mimi ndiye.”
Pea ne muimui ia ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, pea naʻa ne maʻu atu ia lolotonga ʻene nofo ʻi he lolo ʻoke: pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko koe ia ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta?” Pea naʻa ne pehē mai, “Ko au.”
15 Kisha yule nabii mzee akamwambia, “twende nyumbani kwangu ukale chakula.”
Pea naʻa ne toki pehē kiate ia, “Ke ta ō mo au ki ʻapi, pea ke kai ha meʻakai.”
16 Yule mtu wa Mungu akamjibu, “Siwezi kurudi na wewe wala kuingia ndani na wewe, tena sitakula chakula wala kunywa maji pamoja na wewe mahali hapa,
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE ʻikai te u faʻa foki atu mo koe, pe ʻalu mo koe: pea ʻe ʻikai te u kai ha meʻakai pe inu ha vai mo koe ʻi he potu ni:
17 kwa sababu niliamuriwa hivyo kwa neno la BWANA, 'Hautakula chakula wala kunywa maji kule, wala kurudi kwa njia utakayokuja nayo.'”
He naʻe tala mai ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻE ʻikai te ke kai ha mā pe inu ha vai ʻi ai, pe te ke toe liliu atu ke ʻalu ʻi he hala naʻa ke omi ai.”
18 Kwa hiyo yule nabii mzee akamwambia, “Mimi pia ni nabii kama ulivyo, na malaika amesema na mimi neno la BWANA, akisema, 'Mrudishe aje na wewe katika nyumba yako, ili aweze kula chakula na kunywa maji.'” Lakini alikuwa anamdanganya mtu wa Mungu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate ia, “Ko e palōfita foki au ʻo hangē ko koe; pea naʻe lea mai ha ʻāngelo kiate au ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, ‘Toe ʻomi ia mo koe ki ho fale, koeʻuhi ke ne kai ha meʻakai mo inu ha vai.’” Ka naʻa ne loi kiate ia.
19 Kwa hiyo yule mtu wa Mungu akarudi pamoja na yule nabii mzee na akala chakula nyumbani kwake na akanywa maji.
Ko ia naʻa ne foki atu mo ia, mo ne kai ʻae meʻakai ʻi hono fale, mo ne inu vai.
20 Walipokuwa wamekaa mezani, neno la BWANA likamjia yule nabii aliyemrudisha,
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, lolotonga ʻena nofo ʻi he keinangaʻanga, naʻe hoko mai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ki he palōfita naʻe fakafoki mai ia:
21 naye akalia kwa mtu wa Mungu aliyetoka Yuda, akisema “BWANA anasema, 'Kwa kuwa umeshindwa kutii nenola BWANA na umeshindwa kuishika amri ya BWANA ambayo Mungu wako alikupa,
Pea naʻa ne ui ki he tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia naʻe haʻu mei Siuta, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Koeʻuhi kuo ke talangataʻa ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, pea kuo ʻikai te ke fai ʻae fekau ʻaia naʻe fekau kiate koe ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua,
22 bali umerudi na umekula chakula na kunywa maji mahali ambapo BWANA alikwambia usile chakula wala kunywa maji, basi mwili wako hautazikwa kwenye makaburi ya baba zako.'”
Ka kuo ke toe foki ki mui, pea kuo ke kai ʻae meʻakai mo inu ʻae vai ʻi he potu, ʻaia naʻe pehē ai kiate koe, ‘ʻOua naʻa ke kai ha meʻakai, pe inu ha vai;’ ʻe ʻikai hoko ho ʻangaʻanga ki he fonua loto ʻo hoʻo ngaahi tamai.”
23 Baada ya kula chakula na kunywa maji, Yule nabii akatandika punda wa mtu wa Mungu, yule mtu aliyerudi naye.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻa ʻene kai ʻae meʻakai pea hili mo ʻene inu, naʻa ne ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi, maʻae palōfita naʻa ne fakafoki mai.
24 Baada ya mtu wa Mungu kuondoka, akakutana na simba njiani na kumwua barabarani, na mwili wake uliachwa barabarani. Na yule punda akasimama pembeni yake, na yule simba naye akasimama pembeni ya ule mwili.
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu, naʻe fetaulaki mai kiate ia ha laione ʻi he hala, ʻo ne tāmateʻi ia: pea naʻe tō hifo ʻa hono ʻangaʻanga ʻi he hala pea naʻe tuʻu ofi ki ai ʻae ʻasi, pea naʻe tuʻu foki ʻae laione ʻo ofi atu ki he ʻangaʻanga.
25 Watu walipopita na kuuona ule mwili umeachwa barabarani, na yule simba akisimama karibu na ule mwili, walikuja wakaeleza habari hiyo mjini kule ambako yule nabii mzee aliishi.
Pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu atu ai ha kau tangata, ʻonau mamata ki he ʻangaʻanga naʻe lī ʻi he hala, pea mo e laione naʻe tuʻu ofi atu ki he ʻangaʻanga: pea naʻa nau omi ʻo tala ia ʻi he kolo ʻaia naʻe nofo ai ʻae motuʻa palōfita.
26 Yule nabii aliyemrudisha toka njiani aliposikia, akasema, “Yeye mtu wa Muugu ndiye aliyeshindwa kutii neno la BWANA. Kwa hiyo BWANA alimtoa kwa simba, ambaye amemrarua katika vipande vipande na kumwua, kama vile neno la BWANA lilivyokuwa limemwonya.”
Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ki ai ʻae palōfita ʻaia naʻe fakafoki mai ia mei he hala, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e tangata ʻoe ʻOtua ia, ʻaia naʻe talangataʻa ki he folofola ʻa Sihova: ko ia kuo tukuange ai ia ki he laione, ʻaia kuo maumauʻi ia, mo tāmateʻi ia, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kiate ia.”
27 Kwa hiyo yule nabii mzee akawaamnbia wanawe, akisema, “Tandikeni punda wangu,” nao wakamtandikia.
Pea naʻe lea ia ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻo pehē, “ʻAi ʻae hekaʻanga ki he ʻasi maʻaku.” Pea naʻa nau ʻai ʻae hekaʻanga.
28 Akaenda akaukuta mwili umeachwa barabarani, punda na simba wamesimama pembeni ya ule mwili. Yule simba hakuula ule mwili, wala hakumshambulia yule punda.
Pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻo ʻilo ʻa hono ʻangaʻanga kuo lī ʻi he hala, pea tutuʻu ʻae ʻasi mo e laione ʻo vāofi mo e ʻangaʻanga: naʻe ʻikai keina ʻe he laione ʻae ʻangaʻanga, pe [te ne ]haehae ʻae ʻasi.
29 Yule nabii akauchukua ule mwili wa mtu wa Mungu, akaulaza juu ya punda, na akaurudisha. Akaja kwenye mji wake kuomboleza na kuuzika.
Pea naʻe toʻo hake ʻe he palōfita ʻae ʻangaʻanga ʻoe tangata ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻo ne fakaheka ia ki he ʻasi, ʻo ne toe ʻomi ia: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae motuʻa palōfita ki he kolo, ke ne tēngihia ia pea ke fai hono putu.
30 Akaulaza mwili kwenye kaburi lake, nao wakamwombolezea, wakisema, “Aa! ndugu yangu!”
Pea naʻa ne tuku hono sino ki hono faʻitoka ʻoʻona; pea naʻa nau tēngihia ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOiauē! ʻA hoku kāinga!”
31 Kisha baada ya kumzika, yule nabii mzee akawaambia wanawe, akasema, “Nitakapokufa, mtanizika kwenye kaburi ambalo tumemzika mtu wa Mungu. Mtalaza mifupa yangu pembeni mwa mifupa yake.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, hili ʻa ʻene tanu ia, naʻa ne lea ki hono ngaahi foha, ʻo pehē, “ʻO kau ka mate au, te mou toki tanu au ʻi he fonua loto ʻaia kuo tanu ai ʻae tangata ʻoe ʻOtua; tuku fakataha ʻa hoku ngaahi hui mo hono ngaahi hui:”
32 Kwa kuwa ule ujumbe uliosemwa na BWANA, dhidi ya madhabahu kule Betheli na dhidi ya nyumba zote za mahali pa juu katika mji wa Samaria, hakika yatatokea.
Koeʻuhi ko e lea naʻa ne kalanga ʻaki ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻi Peteli, pea ki he ngaahi fale kotoa pē ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Samelia, ʻe hoko moʻoni ia ʻo fai.
33 Baada ya haya Yeroboamu hakuuacha uovu wake, aliendelea kuchagua makuhani wa kawaida kwa ajili ya mahali pa juu kutoka kwa watu wa kila aina. Yeyote ambaye angeweza kutumika alimtakasa kuwa kuhani.
Kae hili ʻae meʻa ni naʻe ʻikai tafoki ʻa Selopoami mei hono hala kovi, ka naʻa ne toe fakanofo ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mei he kau tuʻa ʻoe kakai, ki he ngaahi potu māʻolunga: ko ia fulipē naʻe loto ki ai, naʻa ne fakanofo ia ʻo ne hoko ki he faʻahinga taulaʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
34 Jambo hili likawa dhambi kwenye familia ya Yeroboamu na kusababisha familia yake kuangamizwa na kuondolewa kabisa katika uso wa dunia.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa ni ko e angahala ki he fale ʻo Selopoami, ke motuhi ai ia, pea ke fakaʻauha ia mei he funga ʻo māmani.
