2 Wafalme 3
1 Basi katika mwaka wa kumi na nane wa Yehoshefati mfalme wa Yuda, Yoramu mwana wa Ahabu alianza kutawala juu ta Israeli katika Samaria; alitawala miaka kumi na miwili.
καὶ Ιωραμ υἱὸς Αχααβ ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ισραηλ ἐν ἔτει ὀκτωκαιδεκάτῳ Ιωσαφατ βασιλεῖ Ιουδα καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν δώδεκα ἔτη
2 Alifanya yaliyo maovo usoni kwa Yahwe, lakini si kama baba yake na mama yake; kwa kuwa aliiondoa ile nguzo ya mungu wa Baali ambayo baba yake aliitengeneza.
καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς κυρίου πλὴν οὐχ ὡς ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐχ ὡς ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ καὶ μετέστησεν τὰς στήλας τοῦ Βααλ ἃς ἐποίησεν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ
3 Hata hivyo alishikilia dhambi za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, ambaye alisababisha Israeli kufanya dhambi; wala hakuziacha mbali nao.
πλὴν ἐν τῇ ἁμαρτίᾳ Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ ὃς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ ἐκολλήθη οὐκ ἀπέστη ἀπ’ αὐτῆς
4 Basi Mesha mfalme wa Moabu alifuga kondoo. Alikuwa akimpatia mfalme wa Israeli kondoo 100, 000 na manyoya ya kondoo dume 100, 000.
καὶ Μωσα βασιλεὺς Μωαβ ἦν νωκηδ καὶ ἐπέστρεφεν τῷ βασιλεῖ Ισραηλ ἐν τῇ ἐπαναστάσει ἑκατὸν χιλιάδας ἀρνῶν καὶ ἑκατὸν χιλιάδας κριῶν ἐπὶ πόκων
5 Ila baada ya Ahabu kufa, yule mfalme wa Moabu aliasi dhidi ya mfalme wa Israeli.
καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν Αχααβ καὶ ἠθέτησεν βασιλεὺς Μωαβ ἐν βασιλεῖ Ισραηλ
6 Hivyo Mfalme Joramu alikaondoka Samaria katika muda huo kuwahamasisha Waisraeli wote kwa ajili ya vita.
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιωραμ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐκ Σαμαρείας καὶ ἐπεσκέψατο τὸν Ισραηλ
7 Akatuma mjumbe kwa Yehoshafati mfalme wa Yuda, akisema, “Mfalme wa Moabu ameasi dhidi yangu. Je mtakwenda pamoja nami kupigana dhidi ya Moabu?” Yehoshafati akajibu, “Nitaenda. Mimi ni kama wewe, watu wangu ni kama watu wako, farasi wangu ni kama farasi wako.”
καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν πρὸς Ιωσαφατ βασιλέα Ιουδα λέγων βασιλεὺς Μωαβ ἠθέτησεν ἐν ἐμοί εἰ πορεύσῃ μετ’ ἐμοῦ εἰς Μωαβ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ εἶπεν ἀναβήσομαι ὅμοιός μοι ὅμοιός σοι ὡς ὁ λαός μου ὁ λαός σου ὡς οἱ ἵπποι μου οἱ ἵπποι σου
8 Ndipo akasema, “Tutawashambulia kwa njia gani?” Yehoshafati akajibu, “Kwa njia ya jangwa la Edemu.
καὶ εἶπεν ποίᾳ ὁδῷ ἀναβῶ καὶ εἶπεν ὁδὸν ἔρημον Εδωμ
9 Hivyo huyo mfalme wa Israeli, Yuda, na Edomu wakazunguka kwa mda wa siku saba. Hapakuwa na maji kwa ajili ya jeshi lao, wala kwa farasi au wanyama.
καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ιουδα καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Εδωμ καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν ὁδὸν ἑπτὰ ἡμερῶν καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὕδωρ τῇ παρεμβολῇ καὶ τοῖς κτήνεσιν τοῖς ἐν τοῖς ποσὶν αὐτῶν
10 Basi mfalme wa Israeli akasema, “Hii ni nini? Yahwe amewaita wafalme watatu ili kutekwa mikononi mwa Moabu?”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ ὦ ὅτι κέκληκεν κύριος τοὺς τρεῖς βασιλεῖς παρερχομένους δοῦναι αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ Μωαβ
11 Lakini Yehoshafati akasema, “je hakuna nabii wa Yahwe, ambaye tunaweza kufanya shauri kuhusu Yahwe kupitia yeye?” Mtumishi mmoja wa wafalme wa Israeli akajibu na kusema, “Elisha mwana wa Shafati yuko hapa, ambaye alikuwa akimimina maji kwenye mikono ya Eliya.”
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωσαφατ οὐκ ἔστιν ὧδε προφήτης τοῦ κυρίου καὶ ἐπιζητήσωμεν τὸν κύριον παρ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπεκρίθη εἷς τῶν παίδων βασιλέως Ισραηλ καὶ εἶπεν ὧδε Ελισαιε υἱὸς Σαφατ ὃς ἐπέχεεν ὕδωρ ἐπὶ χεῖρας Ηλιου
12 Yehoshafati akasema, “Neno la Yahwe liko pamoja nami.” Hivyo mfalme wa Israeli, Yehoshaphati, na mfalme wa Edomu wakashuka chini kwenda kwake.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιωσαφατ ἔστιν αὐτῷ ῥῆμα κυρίου καὶ κατέβη πρὸς αὐτὸν βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ καὶ Ιωσαφατ βασιλεὺς Ιουδα καὶ βασιλεὺς Εδωμ
13 Elisha akamwambia mfalme wa Israeli, “Nifanye nini kwa ajili yako? Nenda kwa manabii wa baba na mama yako.” Ndipo mfalme wa Israeli akamwambia, “Hapana, kwa sababu Yahwe amewaita hawa wafalme watatu pamoja ili kuruhusu jeshi la Moabu liwateke.”
καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε πρὸς βασιλέα Ισραηλ τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί δεῦρο πρὸς τοὺς προφήτας τοῦ πατρός σου καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ισραηλ μή ὅτι κέκληκεν κύριος τοὺς τρεῖς βασιλεῖς τοῦ παραδοῦναι αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας Μωαβ
14 Elisha akajibu, “Kama Yawhe wa majeshi aishivo, ambaye nimesimama mbele zake, hakika kama nisingemheshimu uwepo wa Yehoshafati mfalme wa Yeda, Nisingevuta usikivu kwako, au hata kukutazama.
καὶ εἶπεν Ελισαιε ζῇ κύριος τῶν δυνάμεων ᾧ παρέστην ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ὅτι εἰ μὴ πρόσωπον Ιωσαφατ βασιλέως Ιουδα ἐγὼ λαμβάνω εἰ ἐπέβλεψα πρὸς σὲ καὶ εἶδόν σε
15 Lakini sasa niletee mwanamuziki.” Ndipo alipokuja mpiga muziki alipocheza, mkono wa Yahwe ukaja juu ya Elisha.
καὶ νυνὶ δὲ λαβέ μοι ψάλλοντα καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἔψαλλεν ὁ ψάλλων καὶ ἐγένετο ἐπ’ αὐτὸν χεὶρ κυρίου
16 Akasema, “'Yahwe asema hivi, 'Fanya hili bonde la mto mkavu lijae mahandaki.'
καὶ εἶπεν τάδε λέγει κύριος ποιήσατε τὸν χειμάρρουν τοῦτον βοθύνους βοθύνους
17 Kwa kuwa Yahwe asema hivi, 'Hutaona upepo, wala hamtaona mvua, bali hili bonde la mto litajaa maji, na mtakunywa, ninyi na mifugo yenu na wanyama wenu wote.'
ὅτι τάδε λέγει κύριος οὐκ ὄψεσθε πνεῦμα καὶ οὐκ ὄψεσθε ὑετόν καὶ ὁ χειμάρρους οὗτος πλησθήσεται ὕδατος καὶ πίεσθε ὑμεῖς καὶ αἱ κτήσεις ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ κτήνη ὑμῶν
18 Hiki ni kitu rahisi usoni mwa Yahwe. Pia atawapa ushindi juu ya hao Wamoabu.
καὶ κούφη αὕτη ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς κυρίου καὶ παραδώσω τὴν Μωαβ ἐν χειρὶ ὑμῶν
19 Mtaiteka kila ngome ya mji na kila mji mzuri, kukata kila mti mzuri, kusimamisha chemichemi zote za maji, na kuharibu kila sehemu nzuri ya nchi na miamba.”
καὶ πατάξετε πᾶσαν πόλιν ὀχυρὰν καὶ πᾶν ξύλον ἀγαθὸν καταβαλεῖτε καὶ πάσας πηγὰς ὕδατος ἐμφράξετε καὶ πᾶσαν μερίδα ἀγαθὴν ἀχρειώσετε ἐν λίθοις
20 Hivyo asubuhi karibia na mda wa kutoa sadaka ya kuteketeza, yakaja maji kutoka uelekeo wa Edomu; nchi ikajaa maji.
καὶ ἐγένετο τὸ πρωὶ ἀναβαινούσης τῆς θυσίας καὶ ἰδοὺ ὕδατα ἤρχοντο ἐξ ὁδοῦ Εδωμ καὶ ἐπλήσθη ἡ γῆ ὕδατος
21 Ndipo wakati Wamoabu wote waliposikia kwamba wafalme wamekuja kupigana dhidi yao, walikusanyika pamoja, wote waliotakiwa kubeba silaha, na wakasimama mpakani.
καὶ πᾶσα Μωαβ ἤκουσαν ὅτι ἀνέβησαν οἱ βασιλεῖς πολεμεῖν αὐτούς καὶ ἀνεβόησαν ἐκ παντὸς περιεζωσμένου ζώνην καὶ ἐπάνω καὶ ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τοῦ ὁρίου
22 Walitembea asubuhi na mapema na jua likang'aa kwenye maji. Wakati Wamoabu walipoyaona yale maji yaliyowaelekea, yanaonekana mekundu kama damu.
καὶ ὤρθρισαν τὸ πρωί καὶ ὁ ἥλιος ἀνέτειλεν ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα καὶ εἶδεν Μωαβ ἐξ ἐναντίας τὰ ὕδατα πυρρὰ ὡσεὶ αἷμα
23 Wakatamka kwa hasira, “Hii ni damu! Yamkini hao wafalme wameharibiwa, na wameuna wao kwa wao! Sasa basi, Moabu, ngoja tuende tukawateke nyara!”
καὶ εἶπαν αἷμα τοῦτο τῆς ῥομφαίας ἐμαχέσαντο οἱ βασιλεῖς καὶ ἐπάταξαν ἀνὴρ τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ καὶ νῦν ἐπὶ τὰ σκῦλα Μωαβ
24 Wakati walipokuja kwenye kambi ya Israeli, Waisraeli wakawashtukiza na kuwashambulia Wamoabi, ambao walikimbia mbele yao. Hilo jeshi la Israeli waliwakimbiza hao Wamoabu hadi kwao wakiwaua.
καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ισραηλ καὶ Ισραηλ ἀνέστησαν καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὴν Μωαβ καὶ ἔφυγον ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰσπορευόμενοι καὶ τύπτοντες τὴν Μωαβ
25 Waliiharibu miji, na kila aina ya amani ya nchi kila mtu alirusha jiwe mpaka ulipojaa. Walizuia kila chemichemi ya maji na kukata chini miti mizuri yote. Kir-haresethi tu ndiyo ilichwa na mawe yake. Lakini hao maaskari wakawashambulia na makombeo wakiwazunguka na kuishambulia.
καὶ τὰς πόλεις καθεῖλον καὶ πᾶσαν μερίδα ἀγαθὴν ἔρριψαν ἀνὴρ τὸν λίθον καὶ ἐνέπλησαν αὐτὴν καὶ πᾶσαν πηγὴν ὕδατος ἐνέφραξαν καὶ πᾶν ξύλον ἀγαθὸν κατέβαλον ἕως τοῦ καταλιπεῖν τοὺς λίθους τοῦ τοίχου καθῃρημένους καὶ ἐκύκλευσαν οἱ σφενδονῆται καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτήν
26 Ndipo Mfalme Mesha wa Moabu alipoona kwamba ameshindwa, alichukua watu hodari wa upanga mia saba pamoja naye kwenda kwa mfalme wa Edomu, lakini walishindwa.
καὶ εἶδεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Μωαβ ὅτι ἐκραταίωσεν ὑπὲρ αὐτὸν ὁ πόλεμος καὶ ἔλαβεν μεθ’ ἑαυτοῦ ἑπτακοσίους ἄνδρας ἐσπασμένους ῥομφαίαν διακόψαι πρὸς βασιλέα Εδωμ καὶ οὐκ ἠδυνήθησαν
27 Ndipo akamchukua mtoto wake wa kwanza, ambaye angetawala baada ya yeye, na akamuudhi kwa kumtoa kama sadaka ya kuteketezwa juu ya ukuta. Hivyo, kulikuwa na hasira kubwa dhidi ya Israeli, na hao Waisraeli, na Jeshi la Israeli likamuacha mfalme Mesha na kurudi kwenye nchi yao.
καὶ ἔλαβεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν πρωτότοκον ὃς ἐβασίλευσεν ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνήνεγκεν αὐτὸν ὁλοκαύτωμα ἐπὶ τοῦ τείχους καὶ ἐγένετο μετάμελος μέγας ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ ἀπῆραν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς τὴν γῆν
