1 Ahemfo 21
1 Na ɔbarima bi a wɔfrɛ no Nabot a ofi Yesreel wɔ bobeturo bi a ɛbɛn Samariahene Ahab ahemfi.
Na rĩrĩ, thuutha ũcio gũkĩgĩa na ũndũ wakoniĩ mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli. Mũgũnda ũcio wa mĩthabibũ warĩ kũu Jezireeli, hakuhĩ na nyũmba ya ũthamaki ya Ahabu mũthamaki wa Samaria.
2 Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Nabot se, “Fa wo bobeturo no ma me, na memfa asase no nyɛ atosodeturo, efisɛ ɛbɛn mʼahemfi pɛɛ. Sɛ wopene so de ma me a, mɛma wo bobeturo papa, na sɛ nso wopɛ a, bo biara a asase no di no, metua.”
Nake Ahabu akĩĩra Nabothu atĩrĩ, “He mũgũnda waku wa mĩthabibũ haandage mboga, tondũ ũrĩ hakuhĩ na nyũmba yakwa ya ũthamaki. Nĩngũgũkũũranĩria na mũgũnda ũngĩ wa mĩthabibũ mwega gũkĩra ũyũ, kana ũngĩona arĩ wega, no ngũhe mbeeca ciiganĩte thogora waguo.”
3 Nanso Nabot buae se, “Awurade mma ɛmpare me sɛ mede mʼagyanom agyapade bɛma wo.”
No Nabothu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Jehova arogiria ngũhe igai rĩa maithe makwa.”
4 Enti Ahab san kɔɔ ahemfi hɔ a ne bo afuw ne ho pɔtɔɔ. Ɔkɔdae a wannidi, de nʼanim kyerɛɛ ɔfasu.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ahabu akĩinũka athitĩtie gĩthiithi na arĩ mũrakaru, tondũ Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli nĩamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Ndingĩkũhe igai rĩa maithe makwa.” Agĩkoma ũrĩrĩ wake angʼathĩtie na akĩrega kũrĩa irio.
5 Ne yere Isebel bebisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na woayɛ bosaa saa? Adɛn nti na wompɛ sɛ wudidi?”
Nake Jezebeli mũtumia wake akĩingĩra akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũtukie gĩthiithi? Ũrarega kũrĩa irio nĩkĩ?”
6 Obuaa no se, “Meka kyerɛɛ Nabot, Yesreelni no se, ɔntɔn ne bobeturo no mma me anaasɛ, mɛma no bi ahyɛ anan, nanso wampene.”
Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tondũ njĩĩrire Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli atĩrĩ, ‘Nyenderia mũgũnda waku wa mĩthabibũ, kana ũngĩona kwagĩrĩire, ngũhe mũgũnda ũngĩ wa mĩthabibũ handũ haguo.’ No anjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ndingĩkũhe mũgũnda wakwa wa mĩthabibũ.’”
7 Ne yere Isebel bisae se, “Wonyɛ Israelhene ana? Sɔre na didi! Mma eyi nhaw wo. Megye Nabot bobeturo no ama wo!”
Jezebeli mũtumia wake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo ũgwĩka arĩ we mũthamaki wa Isiraeli? Ũkĩra ũrĩe! Kena. Nĩ niĩ ngũkũhe mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũcio Mũjezireeli.”
8 Na Isebel kyerɛw nkrataa wɔ Ahab din mu, de ne nsɔwano sɔw ano, de kɔmaa mpanyimfo ne akunini a wɔne Nabot te kuropɔn no mu no.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩandĩka marũa na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ahabu, na akĩmahũũra mũhũũri wake, akĩmatũma kũrĩ athuuri na anene arĩa maatũũranagia na Nabothu itũũra-inĩ rĩake inene.
9 Krataa no mu nsɛm ne sɛ: “Yi da bi to hɔ a wɔde bɛyɛ akɔnkyen, na ma Nabot ntena anuonyambea wɔ nnipa no mu.
Marũa-inĩ macio aandĩkĩte ũũ: “Anĩrĩrai mũthenya wa kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio, na mũikarĩrie Nabothu handũ ekuoneka, gatagatĩ ka andũ.
10 Monhwehwɛ ahuhufo baanu na wɔmmɔ no kwaadu sɛ, wadome Onyankopɔn ne ɔhene. Na afei, momfa no mfi adi, nkosiw no abo nkum no.”
No mũige imaramari igĩrĩ imũngʼetheire, mũciĩre irute ũira wa atĩ nĩarumĩte Ngai na akaruma mũthamaki. Mũcooke mũmuumie nja ya itũũra mũmũhũre na mahiga nyuguto nginya akue.”
11 Enti mpanyimfo ne atitiriw a wɔte Nabot kurow no mu no yɛɛ nea Isebel kaa wɔ nkrataa no mu sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio athuuri na anene arĩa maatũũraga itũũra-inĩ inene rĩa Nabothu magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jezebeli aathanĩte marũa-inĩ macio aamaandĩkĩire.
12 Wofii akɔnkyen no ase, de Nabot tenaa anuonyambea wɔ nnipa no mu.
Makĩanĩrĩra mũthenya wa kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio, na magĩikarĩria Nabothu handũ ekuoneka, gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ.
13 Na ahuhufo baanu no bɛbɔɔ Nabot kwaadu wɔ nnipa no anim sɛ, wadome Onyankopɔn ne ɔhene. Enti wɔde no kɔɔ kurotia, kosiw no abo kum no.
Ningĩ imaramari igĩrĩ igĩikara imũngʼetheire, na ikĩruta thitango ya gũũkĩrĩra Nabothu mbere ya andũ, ikiuga atĩrĩ, “Nabothu nĩarumĩte Ngai, na akaruma mũthamaki.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmuumia nja ya itũũra inene, makĩmũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto nginya agĩkua.
14 Na wɔsoma kɔɔ Isebel nkyɛn, kɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Wɔasiw Nabot abo, ama wawu.”
Magĩcooka magĩtwara ũhoro kũrĩ Jezebeli, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nabothu nĩmũhũũre na mahiga nyuguto na nĩ mũkuũ.”
15 Bere a Isebel tee sɛ wɔasiw Nabot abo, akum no no ara pɛ, ɔka kyerɛɛ Ahab se, “Sɔre na kɔfa Nabot, Yesreelni no bobeturo no a ɔde kamee wo sɛ ɔrentɔn mma wo no. Ɔnte ase bio, na wawu.”
Jezebeli aarĩkia kũigua atĩ Nabothu nĩahũrĩtwo na mahiga nyuguto agakua-rĩ, akĩĩra Ahabu atĩrĩ “Ũkĩra wĩgwatĩre mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu ũrĩa Mũjezireeli ũcio araregete gũkwenderia. Ndarĩ muoyo, nĩakuĩte.”
16 Enti ɛhɔ ara, Ahab sian kɔfaa Nabot bobeturo no.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Ahabu aiguire atĩ Nabothu nĩakuĩte, agĩũkĩra, agĩikũrũka akegwatĩre mũgũnda wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu.
17 Na Awurade asɛm baa Tisbini Elia hɔ sɛ,
Na rĩrĩ, kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Elija ũrĩa Mũtishibi akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ,
18 “Kɔ na kohyia Israelhene Ahab a odi Samaria so no. Mprempren ara ɔwɔ Nabot bobeturo no mu a ɔrebɛfa.
“Ikũrũka ũgatũnge Ahabu mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa wathanaga Samaria. Rĩu arĩ mũgũnda-inĩ wa mĩthabibũ wa Nabothu kũrĩa athiĩte kwĩgwatĩra mũgũnda ũcio ũtuĩke wake.
19 Ka kyerɛ no se, ‘Ɛnnɔɔso sɛ wukum Nabot? Ɛsɛ sɛ wobɔ no korɔn nso? Nea woayɛ yi nti beae a akraman taforoo Nabot mogya no, ɛhɔ ara na akraman bɛtaforo wo mogya, Yiw, wʼankasa wo mogya!’”
Mwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Githĩ ndũũragĩte mũndũ na ũkaamũtunya indo ciake?’ Ningĩ ũmwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Handũ harĩa ngui iracũnĩire thakame ya Nabothu-rĩ, hau no ho ngui igaacũnĩra thakame yaku, ĩĩ, yaku wee mwene!’”
20 Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Elia se, “Woahu me, me tamfo.” Obuae se, “Yiw maba bio efisɛ woatɔn wo ho ama ɔbɔnefo no wɔ Awurade ani so.
Nake Ahabu akĩĩra Elija atĩrĩ, “Wee thũ yakwa, anga nĩwangora!” Nake Elija agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩndagũkora, tondũ nĩwĩrutĩire gwĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
21 ‘Mede ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ bɛbrɛ wo. Mɛhyew wʼasefo nyinaa, na matwa ɔbarima a otwa to koraa wɔ Israel, sɛ ɔyɛ akoa anaa ɔdehye, afi Ahab ho.
‘Na rĩrĩ, nĩngũkũrehere mwanangĩko. Nĩngũniina njiaro ciaku, na niinĩre Ahabu ciana ciothe cia arũme thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, arĩ ngombo kana ũrĩa ũtarĩ ngombo.
22 Mɛma wo fi ayɛ sɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam ne Ahiya babarima Baasa afi, efisɛ woahyɛ me abufuw ama Israel ayɛ bɔne!’
Nĩngatũma nyũmba yaku ĩhaane o ta ya Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, na ta ya Baasha mũrũ wa Ahija, tondũ nĩũndakarĩtie na ũgatũma Isiraeli mehie.’
23 “Na Isebel nso, Awurade ka se, Yesreel akraman bɛwe ne nam wɔ kuropɔn no afasu ho.
“Naguo ũhoro ũkoniĩ Jezebeli, Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Ngui nĩigatambuurangĩra Jezebeli rũthingo-inĩ rwa Jezireeli.’
24 “Wɔn a na wɔwɔ Ahab afa a wowuwuu wɔ kurow no mu no nso, akraman bɛwe wɔn nam, na apete nso asosɔw wɔn a wowuwuu wɔ wuram no nam.”
“Andũ a Ahabu arĩa magaakuĩra itũũra-inĩ, makaarĩĩo nĩ ngui. Nao arĩa magaakuĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ makaarĩĩo nĩ nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ.”
25 (Obiara nni hɔ a ɔtɔn ne ho maa bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea Ahab yɛe no, efisɛ ne yere Isebel tuu no fo bɔne.
(Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ kuoneka mũndũ ta Ahabu werutĩire gwĩka ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, aringĩrĩirio nĩ mũtumia wake Jezebeli.
26 Ɔyɛɛ bɔne ara, kosii sɛ ɔkɔɔ ahoni so, te sɛ Amorifo a Awurade pam wɔn wɔ Israelfo anim no).
Mĩtugo yake yarĩ mĩũru mũno nĩ ũndũ wa kũrũmĩrĩra mĩhianano ya kũhooywo ta ũrĩa Aamori meekaga, arĩa Jehova aingatire akĩmeheria mbere ya Isiraeli.)
27 Ahab tee saa asɛm yi no, osunsuan ne ntade mu, furaa atweaatam, kyenee kɔm. Ofuraa atweaatam no saa de awerɛhow a emu yɛ den kyinkyinii.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Ahabu aiguire ciugo icio, agĩtarũranga nguo ciake, akĩĩhumba nguo ya ikũnia na akĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio. Aakomaga ehumbĩte nguo ya ikũnia na agathiiaga enyiihĩtie.
28 Na Awurade asɛm baa Tisbini Elia hɔ sɛ,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Elija ũrĩa Mũtishibi, akĩũrio atĩrĩ:
29 “Woahu sɛnea Ahab brɛɛ ne ho ase wɔ mʼanim? Esiane sɛ ɔbrɛɛ ne ho ase nti, meremfa saa ɔhaw ne abɛbrɛsɛ yi a ɛwɔ hɔ ma no nnɛ yi mmrɛ no. Ɛbɛba ne mmabarima so; mɛsɛe nʼasefo nyinaa.”
“Nĩwonete ũrĩa Ahabu enyiihĩtie mbere yakwa? Tondũ we nĩenyiihĩtie, ndikarehe mwanangĩko ũyũ matukũ-inĩ make, no nĩngaũrehere nyũmba yake matukũ-inĩ ma mũriũ.”
