< 2 Wafalme 1 >

1 Moabu aliasi dhidi ya Israeli baada ya kifo cha Ahabu.
Forsothe Moab trespasside ayens Israel, after that Achab was deed.
2 Baada hapo Ahazi akaanguka chini ya dirisha lenye waya zinazikinzana kwenye chumba chake juu katika Samaria, na alikuwa amejeruhiwa. Kwa hiyo alituma wajumbe na kuwaambia, “Nendeni, muulizeni Baal Zebubu, mungu wa Ekroni, kama nitapona hili jeraha.”
And Ocozie felde thorou the aleris of his soler, which he hadde in Samarie, and was sijk; and he sente messangeris, and seide to hem, Go ye, and councele Belzebub, god of Acharon, whether Y may lyue after this sijknesse of me.
3 Lakini malaika wa Yahwe wakamwambia Eliya Mtishbi, “Inuka, nenda ukaonane na wajumbe wa mfalme wa Samaria, na uwaulize, 'Je ni kwasababu hakuna Mungu katika israeli ambaye mnayekwenda kuuliza pamoja na Zebebu, mungu wa Ekroni?
Forsothe the aungel of the Lord spak to Elye of Thesbi, and seide, Rise thou, and go doun into the metynge of the messangeris of the kyng of Samarie; and thou schalt seie to hem, Whether God is not in Israel, that ye go to counsel Belzebub, god of Acharon?
4 Kwa hiyo Yahwe anasema, “Hutaweza kushuka chini kutoka kwenye kitanda ambacho ulichokipanda; badala yake, utakufa hakika."”” Baada ya hapo Eliya akaondoka.
For which thing the Lord seith these thingis, Thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist.
5 wakati wale wajumbe waliporudi kwa Ahazia, akawaambia, “Kwa nini mmerudi?”
And Elie yede. And the messangeris turneden ayen to Ocozie. And he seide to hem, Whi turneden ye ayen?
6 Wakamwambia, “mtu amekuja kuonana na sisi ambaye ametuambia, 'Turudi kwa mfalme ambaye aliyewatuma, na mkamwambie, Yahwe amesema hivi: 'Je ni kwa sababu hakuna Mungu katika Israeli mpaka mmewatuma watu kwenda kumuuliza kwa Baal Zabubu, mungu wa Ekron? Kwa hiyo hutashuka kutoka kitanda ulichokipanda; badala yake, utakufa hakika."””
And thei answeriden to hym, A man mette vs, and seide to vs, Go ye, turne ye ayen to the kyng, that sente you; and ye schulen seie to him, The Lord seith these thingis, Whether for God was not in Israel, thou sendist, that Belzebub, god of Acharon, be counselid? Therfor thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist, but thou schalt die bi deeth.
7 Ahazi akawaambia wajumbe wake, “'Alikuwa mtu wa aina gani, yule ambaye alikuja kuonana na ninyi na akasema haya maneno kwenu?”
Which Ocozie seide to hem, Of what figure and abite is that man, that mette you, and spak to you these wordis?
8 Wakamjibu, “Alikuwa amevaa kanzu yenye manyaya na alikuwa na mkanda wa ngozi kiunanoni kwake.'” Hivyo mfalme akajibu, '“Yule alikuwa Eliya Mtishbi.”
And thei seiden, An heeri man, and gird with a girdil of skyn in the reynes. Which seide to hem, It is Elie of Thesbi.
9 Ndipo mfalme akatuma nahodha wa askari hamsini kwa Elya. Nahodha akaenda mpaka kwa Eliya ambapo alipokuwa amekaa juu ya mlima. Nahodha akamwambia Eliya, “Wewe, mtu wa Mungu, mfalme amesema, 'shuka chini.'”
And he sente to Elie a prince of fifti, and fifti men that weren vndur hym. Which prince stiede to hym, and seide to hym, sittynge in the cop of the hil, Man of God, the kyng comaundith, that thou come doun.
10 Eliya akajibu na kusema kwa nahodha, “Kama mimi ni mtu wa Mungu, moto na ushuke chini kutoka mbinguni na kukula wewe na watu wako hamsini.” Kisha moto ukashuka chini kutoka mbinguni na kumla yeye na watu wake hamsini.
And Elie answeride, and seide to the prince of fifti men, If Y am the man of God, fier come doun fro heuene, and deuoure thee and thi fifti men. Therfor fier cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride hym, and the fifti men that weren with hym.
11 Tena Mfalme Ahazi akamtuma nahodha mwingine pamoja na maaskari wengine hamsini. Huyu nahodha pia akasema kwa Eliya, “Wewe, mtu wa Mungu, mfalme anasema, teremka chini haraka.”'
Eft he sente to Elie another prince of fifti, and fifti men with hym, which spak to Helye, Man of God, the kyng seith these thingis, Haste thou, come thou doun.
12 Eliya akajibu na kuwaambia, “Kama mimi ni mtu wa Mungu, ngoja moto ushuke kutoka mbinguni na ukule wewe na watu wako hamsini.” Moto wa Mungu ukashuka chini tena kutoka mbinguni na kumla yeye na watu wake hamsini.
Elie answeride, and seide, If Y am the man of God, fier come doun fro heuene, and deuoure thee and thi fifti men. Therfor the fier of God cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride hym and hise fifti men.
13 Bado tena mfalme alituma kundi la tatu la wapiganaji hamsini. Huyu nahodha akaenda, akaanguka mbele ya miguu ya Eliya, na kumsihi na kumwambia, “Wewe, mtu wa Mungu, Nakuomba, acha uzima wangu na uzima wa hawa watumishi wako hamsini uwe na thamani machoni kwako.
Eft he sente the thridde prince of fifti men, and fifti men that weren with hym. And whanne this prynce hadde come, he bowide the knees ayens Elie, and preiede hym, and seide, Man of God, nyle thou dispise my lijf, and the lyues of thi seruauntis that ben with me.
14 Ndipo, moto ukashuka chini kutoka mbinguni na kuwala wale manahodha wawili wa kwanza pamoja na watu wao, bali sasa acha uzima wangu uwe na thamani machoni kwako.”
Lo! fier cam doun fro heuene, and deuouride tweyne, the firste princis of fifti men, and the fifti men that weren with hem; but now, Y biseche, that thou haue mercy on my lijf.
15 Malaika wa Yahwe akamwambia Eliya, “'Nenda chini pamoja naye. Usimwogope.”' Hivyo Eliya akainuka na kwenda chini pamoja naye kwenda kwa mfalme.
Forsothe the aungel of the Lord spak to Helie of Thesbi, and seide, Go thou doun with hym; drede thou not. Therfor Elie roos, and cam doun with hym to the kyng;
16 Baadye Eliya akamwambia Ahazia, '“Hivi ndivyo Yahwe asemavyo, Umewatuma wajumbe kuzungumza pamoja na Baal-Zebubu, mungu wa Ekron. Je ni kwa sababu hakuna Mungu katika Israeli ambaye unayeweza kumuuliza habari? Kwa hiyo sasa, hutaweza kushuka chini kutoka kwenye kitanda ulichokipanda; utakufa hakika.'”
and he spak to the kyng, The Lord seith thes thingis, For thou sentist messangeris to counsele Belzebub, god of Acharon, as if no God were in Israel, of whom thow myytist axe a word; therfor thou schalt not go doun of the bed, on which thou stiedist, but thou schalt die bi deeth.
17 Hivyo Mfalme Ahazia alikufa kulingana na neno la Yahwe ambalo Eliya alilisema. Yoramu alianza kutawala katika eneo lake, katika mwaka wa pili Yoramu mwana wa Yohoshafati mfalme wa Yuda, kwa sababu Ahazia hakuwa na mtoto.
Therfor he was deed bi the word of the Lord, which word Elie spak; and Joram, hys brothir, regnyde for hym, in the secounde yeer of Joram, the sone of Josephat, kyng of Juda; for Ocozie hadde no sone.
18 Kama mambo mengine yanayomuhusu Ahazia, je hayakuandikwa katika kitabu cha matukio ya wafalme wa Israeli?
Sotheli the residue of wordis of Ocozie, whiche he wrouyte, whether these ben not writun in the book of wordis of daies of the kyngis of Israel?
