1 Ahemfo 19
1 Ɛberɛ a Ahab duruu fie no, ɔkaa deɛ Elia ayɛ nyinaa ne sɛdeɛ wakunkum Baal adiyifoɔ nyinaa no kyerɛɛ Isebel.
Tsono Ahabu anawuza Yezebeli zonse zimene anachita Eliya ndi momwe anaphera aneneri onse ndi lupanga.
2 Enti, Isebel de saa nkra yi kɔmaa Elia sɛ, “Sɛ ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ na menkum wo, sɛdeɛ woakum nkurɔfoɔ yi a, anyame no nku me bi.”
Choncho Yezebeli anatuma mthenga kwa Eliya kuti akamuwuze kuti, “Milungu indilange, ndipo indilange koopsa, ngati mawa nthawi ngati yomwe ino sindidzakupha iwe monga unaphera aneneriwo.”
3 Elia tee nkra no, ɔsuroeɛ, enti ɔdwane de peree ne ti. Ɔkɔɔ kuro bi a ɛwɔ Yuda a wɔfrɛ no Beer-Seba, gyaa ne ɔsomfoɔ wɔ hɔ.
Eliya ataona zimenezi, ananyamuka nathawa kupulumutsa moyo wake. Atafika ku Beeriseba ku Yuda, anasiya mtumiki wake kumeneko,
4 Na ɔno nko ara nantee da mu nyinaa kɔɔ ɛserɛ so. Ɔkɔtenaa dutan bi a na ayɛ frɔmm ase, na ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ anka ɔnwu. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Deɛ mahunu no ara dɔɔ me so, Awurade. Twa me nkwa so na mennyɛ nsene mʼagyanom.”
ndipo Eliyayo anayenda ulendo wa tsiku limodzi mʼchipululu. Anafika pa kamtengo ka tsache, nakhala pansi pa tsinde lake napemphera kuti afe. Iye anati, “Yehova, ine ndatopa nazo. Chotsani moyo wanga. Ineyo sindine wopambana makolo anga.”
5 Na ɔdaa dua no ase. Na ne nna mu no, ɔbɔfoɔ bɛkaa no, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sɔre na didi.”
Ndipo Eliya anagona tulo tofa nato pa tsinde pa kamtengoko. Ndipo taonani, mngelo anamukhudza, namuwuza kuti, “Dzuka udye.”
6 Ɔhwɛɛ ne ho hyiaeɛ hunuu burodo bi a wɔato no ogyasramma so, ne kuruwa a nsuo wɔ mu. Enti, ɔdidiiɛ, nom nsuo no, sane daa bio.
Eliya anayangʼana, ndipo taonani kumutu kwake kunali buledi wootcha pa makala ndi botolo la madzi. Iye anadya ndi kumwa, nʼkugonanso.
7 Na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no sane baa bio bɛkaa no kaa sɛ, “Sɔre na didi pii ka ho, na ɛkwan a ɛda wʼanim no ware.”
Mngelo wa Yehova anabweranso kachiwiri, anamukhudza, namuwuza kuti, “Dzuka udye, popeza ulendowu ndi wautali.”
8 Enti, ɔsɔre didiiɛ, nomee. Aduane no maa no nyaa ahoɔden a ɔde bɛtwa ɛkwan adaduanan, awia ne anadwo akɔ Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔ no so.
Tsono Eliya anadzuka nadya ndi kumwa. Atapeza mphamvu chifukwa cha chakudyacho, anayenda masiku 40, usana ndi usiku mpaka anafika ku Horebu, phiri la Mulungu.
9 Ɔkɔduruu ɔbodan bi ho, na ɔdaa mu anadwo no. Na Awurade bisaa no sɛ, “Elia, ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
Kumeneko analowa mʼphanga, nakhala komweko. Ndipo taonani, Yehova anayankhula naye kuti, “Eliya, ukuchita chiyani kuno?”
10 Elia buaa sɛ, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn. Nanso, Israelfoɔ abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛeɛ no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔrebukyia nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifoɔ a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrepɛ me akum me nso.”
Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndakhala wodzipereka kwambiri kwa Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse. Aisraeli asiya pangano lanu, agwetsa maguwa anu ansembe, ndipo apha aneneri anu ndi lupanga. Ndatsala ine ndekha ndipo tsopano akufuna kundipha.”
11 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Firi adi kɔgyina mʼanim wɔ bepɔ no so.” Na ɛberɛ a Elia gyina hɔ no, Awurade bɛfaa hɔ, na mframa denden bi bɔ sii bepɔ no mu. Na mframa no ano den no dwidwaa abotan no mu. Nanso, na Awurade nni mframa no mu. Mframa no akyi no, asase wosooɛ. Nanso, na Awurade nni asasewosoɔ no mu.
Yehova anati, “Tuluka ndipo ukayime pa phiri pamaso pa Yehova, pakuti Yehova ali pafupi kudutsa pamenepo.” Tsono mphepo yayikulu ndi yamphamvu inawomba ningʼamba mapiri ndi kuswa matanthwe pamaso pa Yehova, koma Yehova sanali mʼmphepomo. Itapita mphepoyo panachita chivomerezi, koma Yehova sanali mʼchivomerezicho.
12 Na asasewosoɔ no akyi, ogya pueeɛ. Nanso, na Awurade nni ogya no mu. Na ogya no akyi, nne bi a ɛyɛ bɔkɔɔ te sɛ deɛ wɔde ka asomusɛm baeɛ.
Chitapita chivomerezicho, panafika moto, koma Yehova sanali mʼmotomo. Ndipo utapita motowo, panamveka kamphepo kayaziyazi.
13 Elia tee nne no, ɔde nʼatadeɛ kataa nʼanim ɛnna ɔfiri ɔbodan no mu, kɔgyinaa ano kwan no ano. Na nne bi bisaa sɛ, “Elia, ɛdeɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
Eliya atamva kamphepoko, anakokera chovala chake naphimba kumutu. Anatuluka ndipo anayima pa khomo la phanga. Ndipo panamveka mawu akuti, “Eliya, ukuchita chiyani kuno?”
14 Ɔbuaa bio sɛ, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn. Nanso, Israelfoɔ abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛeɛ no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔrebukyia nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifoɔ a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrepɛ me akum me nso.”
Iye anayankha kuti, “Ndakhala wodzipereka kwambiri kwa Yehova Mulungu Wamphamvuzonse. Aisraeli asiya pangano lanu, agwetsa maguwa anu ansembe, ndipo apha aneneri anu ndi lupanga. Ndatsala ine ndekha ndipo tsopano akufuna kundipha.”
15 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Sane wʼakyi kɔ baabi a wofiri baeɛ, na kɔ Damasko ɛserɛ so. Na sɛ woduru hɔ a, sra Hasael ngo, si no Aramhene.
Yehova anati kwa Eliyayo, “Bwerera njira imene unadzera, ndipo upite ku Chipululu cha ku Damasiko. Ukakafika kumeneko, ukadzoze Hazaeli kuti akhale mfumu ya ku Aramu.
16 Afei, sra Nimsi babarima Yehu, na ɔnyɛ Israelhene, na sra Safat babarima Elisa a ɔfiri Abel-Mehola, na ɔnsi wʼananmu sɛ me odiyifoɔ.
Ukadzozenso Yehu mwana wa Nimisi kuti akhale mfumu ya Israeli, ndiponso ukadzoze Elisa mwana wa Safati wa ku Abeli-Mehola kuti akhale mneneri wolowa mʼmalo mwako.
17 Obiara a ɔbɛdwane afiri Hasael ho no, Yehu bɛkum no, na obiara a ɔbɛdwane afiri Yehu ho nso no, Elisa bɛkum no.
Yehu adzapha aliyense amene adzapulumuke ku lupanga la Hazaeli, ndipo Elisa adzapha aliyense amene adzapulumuke ku lupanga la Yehu.
18 Yeinom akyi no, mɛbɔ nnipa afoforɔ mpem nson bi a wɔwɔ Israel a wɔnkotoo Baal, mfee nʼano da no ho ban.”
Komabe ndasunga anthu 7,000 ku Israeli, anthu onse amene mawondo awo sanagwadirepo Baala, onse amene pakamwa pawo sipanapsompsoneko fano lake.”
19 Na Elia kɔhunuu Safat babarima Elisa sɛ ɔde anantwie refuntum afuo. Na anantwie mpamho dubaako na wɔdi nʼanim, ɛnna Elisa nso de mpamho a ɛtɔ so dumienu refuntum. Elia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔtoo nʼatadeɛ guu ne mmati so, na ɔsane nʼakyi kɔeɛ.
Kotero Eliya anachoka kumeneko, nakapeza Elisa mwana wa Safati. Iye ankatipula ndi mapulawo khumi ndi awiri okokedwa ndi ngʼombe ziwiriziwiri zapamagoli, ndipo iye mwini ankayendetsa goli la khumi ndi chiwiri. Eliya anapita kumene anali namuveka chofunda chake.
20 Elisa gyaa anantwie no hɔ, tuu mmirika dii Elia akyi, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no, ma menkɔkra mʼagya ne me maame ansa na me ne wo akɔ.” Elia buaa sɛ, “Sane wʼakyi na kɔ. Na deɛ mayɛ wo no, dwene ho.”
Pomwepo Elisa anasiya ngʼombe zake nathamangira Eliya. Iye anati, “Mundilole kuti ndikatsanzike abambo ndi amayi anga, ndipo kenaka ndidzakutsatani.” Eliya anayankha kuti, “Bwerera. Ine ndachita chiyani kwa iwe?”
21 Afei, Elisa sane kɔɔ anantwie no ho kɔkunkumm wɔn. Ɔde funtumfidie no ho nnua no yɛɛ nnyensin de totoo ɛnam no. Ɔde ɛnam no kɔmaa mmarima a wɔde funtumfidie a aka no reyɛ adwuma no nyinaa, ma wɔweeɛ. Na ɔne Elia kɔeɛ sɛ ne ɔboafoɔ.
Choncho Elisa anamusiya Eliyayo nabwerera kwawo. Anatenga ngʼombe zake ziwiri zapagoli nazipha. Anatenga magoli a mapulawo ake nasonkhera moto kuphikira nyamayo ndipo anayipereka kwa anthu kuti adye. Ndipo ananyamuka natsatira Eliya ndi kukhala mtumiki wake.
