1 Ahab babarima Yoram na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ Israel ɛberɛ a na Yudahene Yehosafat adi adeɛ mfeɛ dunwɔtwe wɔ Yuda no. Ɔdii adeɛ wɔ Samaria mfeɛ dumienu.
Jehoram nwa Ehab, malitere ịbụ eze ndị Izrel na Sameria nʼafọ nke iri na asatọ nke ọchịchị Jehoshafat na Juda. Afọ iri na abụọ ka ọ chịrị dịka eze.
2 Ɔyɛɛ Awurade ani so bɔne. Nanso, na nʼamumuyɛ no nte sɛ nʼagya ne ne maame deɛ no. Ɔsɛee Baal adum kronkron a nʼagya siiɛ no.
O mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, ma ọ bụghị dịka nna ya na nne ya mere. O wezugara nkume ahụ e doro nsọ nye Baal nke nna ya kpụrụ.
3 Nanso ɔtoaa ahonisom so, sɛdeɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam dii Israelfoɔ anim, ma wɔyɛɛ no.
Otu ọ dị, ọ nọgidere na mmehie Jeroboam nwa Nebat, onye mere ka Izrel baa nʼime mmehie ife arụsị. Joram esiteghị na ha wezuga onwe ya.
4 Na Moabhene Mesa ne ne nkurɔfoɔ yɛn nnwan. Na wɔtua apeatoɔ a ɛyɛ nnwan mma ɔpeha ne nnwennini ɔpeha ho nwi ma Israelhene afe biara.
Eze ndị Moab, bụ Misha, na ndị ya, bụ ndị na-azụ atụrụ. Nʼafọ niile, ọ na-atụrụ eze Izrel otu narị puku ajị ebule, na otu narị puku atụrụ.
5 Nanso, Ahab wuo akyi no, Moabhene sɔre tiaa Israelhene.
Ma mgbe Ehab eze Izrel nwụrụ, eze Moab nupuru isi megide eze Izrel, jụkwa ịnọ nʼokpuru ya ọzọ.
6 Enti, ɔhene Yoram firii Samaria boaboaa Israel akodɔm ano.
Ya mere, eze Joram sitere na Sameria pụọ ga kpọkọta ndị Izrel niile.
7 Ɛkwan so no, ɔtoo nkra yi kɔmaa Yudahene Yehosafat sɛ, “Moabhene asɔre atia me. Wobɛboa me na me ne no ako anaa?” Na Yehosafat buaa sɛ, “Adɛn enti na meremmoa wo. Wo ne me yɛ anuanom, na mʼakodɔm yɛ wo dea na wotumi di wɔn anim. Mpo mʼapɔnkɔ da wo da.”
O zigara Jehoshafat eze Juda ozi sị ya, “Eze Moab enupula isi megide m. Ị ga-abịa soro m ịga buso ndị Moab agha?” Ọ zaghachiri, “Aga m eso gị gaa. Mụ na gị bụ otu, ndị m bụ ndị gị, ịnyịnya m bụkwa ịnyịnya gị.”
8 Na Yehosafat bisaa sɛ, “Ɛkwan bɛn na yɛbɛfa so akɔ?” Yoram buaa sɛ, “Yɛbɛtoa wɔn afiri Edom ɛserɛ so.”
“Ma olee ụzọ anyị ga-esi gaa ibu agha ahụ?” Joram zara, “Anyị ga-esi ụzọ ọzara Edọm.”
9 Edomhene ne nʼakodɔm kɔkaa wɔn ho, na asraadɔm mmiɛnsa no de nnanson twaa ntwahokwan a ɛfa ɛserɛ so no. Nanso, na nsuo nni hɔ ma mmarima no anaa wɔn mmoa.
Ya mere, eze Izrel na eze Juda, na eze Edọm, na ndị agha ha niile, zukọtara site ụzọ ọzara Edọm ịga ibuso Moab agha. Ha gara ije abalị asaa nʼọzara. Ma mmiri ọṅụṅụ ha nwere gwụsịrị. Ọ dịkwaghị mmiri dịrị anụ ụlọ ha, na ndị agha ha.
10 Israelhene teaam bisaa sɛ, “Yɛnyɛ yɛn ho ɛdeɛn? Awurade de yɛn baasa aba ha sɛ Moabhene nni yɛn so.”
Mgbe ahụ, eze Izrel tiri mkpu sị, “Gịnị ka anyị ga-eme? Ọ ga-abụ na Onyenwe anyị kpọpụtara anyị bụ eze atọ ndị a, nʼebe a, inyefe anyị nʼaka ndị Moab, ka ha merie anyị?”
11 Nanso, Yudahene Yehosafat bisaa sɛ, “Enti Awurade odiyifoɔ biara nka yɛn ho ha? Sɛ wɔn mu bi wɔ ha a, yɛbɛtumi abisa Awurade deɛ yɛnyɛ.” Ɔhene Yoram mpanimfoɔ no mu baako kaa sɛ, “Safat babarima Elisa wɔ ha. Na ɔyɛ Elia ɔboafoɔ.”
Ma Jehoshafat, eze Juda, jụrụ ajụjụ sị, “Ọ bụ na o nweghị onye amụma Onyenwe anyị nọ nʼebe a, onye anyị ga-esi nʼaka ya jụta Onyenwe anyị ase, site na ya?” Otu onyeisi agha ndị Izrel sị ha, “Ịlaisha, nwa Shafat, onye jeere Ịlaịja ozi, nọ nʼebe a.”
12 Enti, Yehosafat kaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ, Awurade bɛtumi akasa afa ne so.” Na Israelhene, Yudahene ne Edomhene kɔɔ Elisa nkyɛn abisa.
Jehoshafat zara sị, “Okwu Onyenwe anyị dị nʼọnụ ya.” Ya mere, eze Izrel na Jehoshafat, na eze Edọm, gakwuru ya.
13 Elisa ka kyerɛɛ Israelhene sɛ, “Wo ho nhia me. Kɔ wʼagya ne wo maame adiyifoɔ abosonsomfoɔ no nkyɛn.” Nanso, ɔhene Yoram kaa sɛ, “Dabi! Na ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔfrɛɛ yɛn ahemfo baasa yi baa ha, sɛ Moabhene nsɛe yɛn!”
Ịlaisha zara eze Izrel sị, “Gịnị ka mụ na gị nwekọrọ? Jekwuru ndị amụma nne gị na nna gị, jụta ha ase.” Eze Izrel zara sị ya, “Mba, nʼihi na ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị kpọpụtara anyị bụ eze atọ nʼebe a, ka o were anyị nyefee nʼaka ndị Moab.”
14 Na Elisa buaa sɛ, “Mmerɛ dodoɔ a Awurade Otumfoɔ a mesom no te ase yi, sɛ ɛnyɛ Yudahene Yehosafat a mebu no a, anka merenha me ho wɔ wo ho.
Ịlaisha sịrị, “Ebe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile na-adị ndụ, bụ onye m na-efe, a si na ọ bụghị nsọpụrụ m nwere nʼebe Jehoshafat eze Juda nọ, agaraghị m atụpụrụ gị ọnụ maọbụ lee gị anya nʼihu.
15 Afei, ma obi a ɔbɛtumi abɔ sankuo mmra.” Ɛberɛ a wɔrebɔ sankuo no, Awurade tumi baa Elisa so,
Ma ugbu a, kpọtaranụ m onye na-akpọ ụbọ.” Mgbe ọkpọ ụbọ ahụ malitere ịkpọ ụbọ ya, aka Onyenwe anyị bịakwasịrị Ịlaisha.
16 ma ɔkaa sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie: Saa bɔnhwa a emu nsuo awe yi, wɔde nsuo bɛhyɛ no ma.
Ọ sịrị, “Ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, aga m eme ka ndagwurugwu a jupụta nʼolulu mmiri.
17 Worenhunu mframa anaa osuo sɛdeɛ Awurade ka no, nanso saa bɔnhwa yi, wɔbɛhyɛ no nsuo ma. Mobɛnya bi ama mo ho, mo anantwie ne mo mmoa a aka no.
Nʼihi na otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, Unu agaghị ahụ ifufe maọbụ mmiri ozuzo, ma ndagwurugwu a ga-ejupụta na mmiri, unu onwe unu ga-aṅụ, na ehi unu, na anụmanụ ndị ọzọ unu ga-aṅụkwa mmiri.
18 Na yei yɛ ade kumaa bi ma Awurade. Ɔbɛma moadi Moab akodɔm so nkonim.
Ma nke a bụ ihe dị nta nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ, nʼihi na ọ ga-enyefekwa ndị Moab nʼaka unu.
19 Mobɛdi wɔn nkuropɔn papa so nkonim, mpo, nkuropɔn a wɔabɔ ho ban no. Mobɛtwitwa wɔn nnua nyinaa agu. Mobɛsisi wɔn nsuo aniwa, na mode aboɔ asɛe wɔn nsase pa.”
Unu ga-etigbu obodo ọbụla e wusiri ike, na obodo ukwu niile. Unu ga-egbudakwa ezi osisi ha na-amị mkpụrụ, kpọchie isi mmiri ha niile, werekwa nkume mebikwaa ezi ala ubi ha niile.”
20 Na adeɛ kyeeɛ; ɛduruu ɛberɛ a wɔbɔ anɔpa afɔdeɛ no, nsuo puee prɛko pɛ. Na ɛtene firii Edom, na ankyɛre biara na nsuo abu baabiara.
O ruo, nʼụtụtụ, nʼoge e ji achụ aja nsure ọkụ ụtụtụ, lee na mmiri sitere ụzọ Edọm sọọrọ bịa nʼebe ahụ ha gwuru olulu na ndagwurugwu ala ahụ sọjuo ala ahụ niile.
21 Ɛberɛ a Moabfoɔ tee sɛ akodɔm mmiɛnsa reba wɔn so no, wɔn nso boaboaa mmarima a wɔbɛtumi ako, mmɔfra ne mpanin ano, de wɔn sisii wɔn ahyeɛ so.
Mgbe ndị Moab nụrụ na ndị eze ahụ na-abịa imegide ha, ha kpọkọtara ndị ikom ọbụla nwere ike ịlụ agha, ma okenye ma okorobịa, pụta bịa guzo nʼoke ala ha.
22 Na adeɛ kyeeɛ a wɔsɔreeɛ no, na owia no abɔ wɔ nsuo no so, ama ani abere sɛ mogya.
Mgbe chi bọrọ nʼisi ụtụtụ, anyanwụ wara mụkwasị mmiri ahụ. Site nʼebe ha nọ, ndị Moab lepụrụ anya hụ mmiri ahụ ka ọ na-acha ọbara ọbara.
23 Moabfoɔ no teaam sɛ, “Ɛyɛ mogya. Akodɔm mmiɛnsa no atwa wɔn ho ako, akunkum wɔn ho wɔn ho! Momma yɛnkɔfo asadeɛ no!”
Mgbe ahụ, ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Leenụ ọbara! Ọ ga-abụ na ndị agha eze atọ ndị a etigbuola onwe ha. Pụtanụ, unu ndị Moab, ka anyị gaa kwakọrọ ihe nkwata na-agha!”
24 Ɛberɛ a wɔduruu Israelfoɔ nsraban mu no, Israel akodɔm gyee bum, kɔtoaa Moabfoɔ, ma wɔdwaneeɛ. Israel akodɔm no taa wɔn kɔduruu Moab asase so. Wɔgu Moabfoɔ no so nyinaa no, na wɔresɛe wɔn nneɛma.
Mgbe ha gbaara ọsọ bịaruo nʼụlọ agha ndị Izrel, ndị agha Izrel biliri malite itigbu ha. Ya mere, ndị agha Moab sitere nʼihu ha gbalaga. Ma ndị agha Izrel banyere nʼime obodo ndị Moab, gbuo ihe niile ha hụrụ nʼụzọ.
25 Wɔsɛee wɔn nkuro akɛseɛ, de aboɔ kataa wɔn nsase pa so, sisii asutire nyinaa, twitwaa nnua pa nyinaa. Kir-Haraset nko ara na ɛkaeɛ, na ɛno mpo, wɔto hyɛɛ so.
Ha tidara obodo ndị Moab niile, tinye nkume nʼala ubi ọma ndị Moab niile. Ha kpọchiri isi mmiri niile, gbudasịakwa ezi osisi niile na-amị mkpụrụ nʼala ahụ. Nʼikpeazụ, ọ bụ naanị otu obodo ndị Moab fọdụrụ, isi obodo a na-akpọ Kia Hareset. Ndị ji ụdọ na-ama nkume gbara obodo a gburugburu, bido ibuso ya agha.
26 Ɛberɛ a Moabhene hunuu sɛ ɔredi nkoguo no, ɔdii nʼakofoɔ ahanson anim, miaa wɔn ho, pɛɛ sɛ wɔpem fa atamfoɔ no nsraban a ɛbɛn Edomhene no mu, nanso wɔantumi.
Mgbe eze Moab hụrụ na agha ahụ anaghị agaziri ya nke ọma, ọ chịịrị narị ndị agha asaa, ndị ji mma agha ebu agha, gbalịa isi nʼetiti ndị agha Izrel tikapụta, na ncherita ihu ebe eze Edọm nọ, ma ha enweghị ike.
27 Enti, ɔfaa ne babarima panin a anka ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene no, de no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ afasuo no ho. Yei enti, abufuo kɛseɛ baa Israel so, na wɔsane wɔn akyi kɔɔ wɔn ankasa asase so.
Ya mere, o weere ọkpara ya, onye gaara abụ eze nʼọnọdụ ya, gbuo ya, dịka aja nʼelu mgbidi gbara obodo ahụ gburugburu nye chi Moab. Iwe dị ukwuu dị nʼụbọchị ahụ megide Izrel. Ha kwụsịrị ibu agha, laghachi nʼobodo nke aka ha.
