< 1 Kings 13 >
1 Sì kíyèsi i, ènìyàn Ọlọ́run kan wá láti Juda sí Beteli nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, bì Jeroboamu sì ti dúró lẹ́bàá a pẹpẹ láti fi tùràrí jóná.
And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the Lord unto Beth-el: while Jerobo'am was standing upon the altar to burn incense.
2 Ó sì kígbe sí pẹpẹ náà nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa wí pé, “Pẹpẹ! Pẹpẹ! Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘A ó bí ọmọkùnrin kan tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Josiah ní ilé Dafidi. Lórí rẹ ni yóò sì fi àwọn àlùfáà ibi gíga wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ń fi tùràrí lórí rẹ̀ rú ẹbọ, a ó sì sun egungun ènìyàn lórí rẹ.’”
And he called out against the altar by the word of the Lord, and he said, O altar, altar, thus hath said the Lord, Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name, and he shall sacrifice upon thee the priests of the high-places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon thee.
3 Ní ọjọ́ kan náà ènìyàn Ọlọ́run sì fún wọn ní àmì kan wí pé, “Èyí ni àmì tí Olúwa ti kéde: kíyèsi i, pẹpẹ náà yóò ya, eérú tí ń bẹ lórí rẹ̀ yóò sì dànù.”
And he gave on the same day a token, saying, This is the token that the Lord hath spoken, Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes which are upon it shall be spilled about.
4 Nígbà tí Jeroboamu ọba sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, tí ó kígbe sí pẹpẹ náà ní Beteli, ó sì na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ jáde nínú pẹpẹ, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ mú un!” ṣùgbọ́n ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tí ó nà sí i sì kákò, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì le fà á padà mọ́.
And it came to pass, when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he had called out against the altar in Beth-el, that Jerobo'am stretched forth his hand from off the altar, saying, Seize him. And his hand, which he had put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.
5 Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, pẹpẹ ya, eérú náà sì dànù kúrò lórí pẹpẹ náà gẹ́gẹ́ bí àmì tí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ti fi fún un nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
The altar also was rent, and the ashes were spilled about from the altar, according to the token which the man of God had given by the word of the Lord.
6 Nígbà náà ní ọba sì wí fún ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà pé, “Bẹ̀bẹ̀ pẹ̀lú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, kí o sì gbàdúrà fún mi kí ọwọ́ mi lè padà bọ̀ sípò.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà bẹ̀bẹ̀ lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, ọwọ́ ọba sì padà bọ̀ sípò, ó sì padà sí bí ó ti wà tẹ́lẹ̀.
And the king commenced and said unto the man of God, Offer but entreaty before the Lord thy God, and pray in behalf of me, that my hand may return to me again. And the man of God offered his entreaty before the Lord, and the king's hand returned to him again, and became as it was before.
7 Ọba sì wí fún ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà pé, “Wá bá mi lọ ilé, kí o sì wá nǹkan jẹ, èmi yóò sì fi ẹ̀bùn fún ọ.”
And the king spoke unto the man of God, Come home with me, and take some refreshment, and I will give thee a present.
8 Ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà dá ọba lóhùn pé, “Bí ìwọ yóò bá tilẹ̀ fún mi ní ìdajì ìní rẹ, èmi kì yóò lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ tàbí kí èmi jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu omi ní ibí yìí.
But the man of God said unto the king, If thou wert to give me the half of thy house, I would not go in with thee, neither would I eat bread nor drink water in this place;
9 Nítorí a ti pa á láṣẹ fún mi nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa wí pé, ‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu omi tàbí padà ní ọ̀nà náà tí o gbà wá.’”
For so was it charged me by the word of the Lord, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that thou camest.
10 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó gba ọ̀nà mìíràn, kò sì padà gba ọ̀nà tí ó gbà wá sí Beteli.
So he went by another way, and returned not by the way on which he was come to Beth-el.
11 Wòlíì àgbà kan wà tí ń gbé Beteli, ẹni tí àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ dé, tí ó sì ròyìn gbogbo ohun tí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà ti ṣe ní Beteli ní ọjọ́ náà fún un. Wọ́n sì tún sọ fún baba wọn ohun tí ó sọ fún ọba.
Now there dwelt a certain old prophet in Beth-el; and his son came and told him all the deed that the man of God had done that day in Beth-el: the words [also] which he had spoken unto the king, these too they told to their father.
12 Baba wọn sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ọ̀nà wo ni ó gbà?” Àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ sì fi ọ̀nà tí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run láti Juda gbà hàn án.
And their father spoke unto them, What way did he go? His sons however had seen what way had gone the man of God, who had come from Judah.
13 Nígbà náà ni ó wí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún mi.” Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún un tán, ó sì gùn ún.
And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass, and he rode away thereon,
14 Ó sì tẹ̀lé ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà lẹ́yìn. Ó sì rí i tí ó jókòó lábẹ́ igi óákù kan, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ni ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ó ti Juda wá bí?” Ó sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi ni.”
And he went after the man of God, and found him sitting under the oak; and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.
15 Nígbà náà ni wòlíì náà sì wí fún un pé, “Bá mi lọ ilé, kí o sì jẹun.”
Then said he unto him, Come with me home, and eat bread.
16 Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà sì wí pé, “Èmi kò le padà sẹ́yìn tàbí bá ọ lọ ilé, tàbí kí èmi kí ó jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu omi pẹ̀lú rẹ níhìn-ín.
And he said, I cannot return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place;
17 A ti sọ fún mi nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa pé, ‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu omi níhìn-ín tàbí kí o padà lọ nípa ọ̀nà tí ìwọ bá wá.’”
For a command came to me by the word of the Lord, Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water there; thou shalt not return to go by the way [also] by which thou camest.
18 Wòlíì àgbà náà sì wí fún un pé, “Wòlíì ni èmi náà pẹ̀lú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ. Angẹli sì sọ fún mi nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa pé, ‘Mú un padà wá sí ilé rẹ, kí ó lè jẹ oúnjẹ àti kí ó lè mu omi.’” (Ṣùgbọ́n ó purọ́ fún un ni.)
And he said unto him, I also am a prophet like thee; and an angel spoke unto me by the word of the Lord, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.
19 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà sì padà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì jẹ oúnjẹ ó sì mu omi ní ilé rẹ̀.
So he returned with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.
20 Bí wọ́n sì ti jókòó ti tábìlì, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ wòlíì tí ó mú un padà wá pé;
And it came to pass, as they were sitting at the table, That the word of the Lord came unto the prophet who had brought him back;
21 Ó sì kígbe sí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ó ti Juda wá wí pé, “Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: ‘Ìwọ ti ba ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa jẹ́, ìwọ kò sì pa àṣẹ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ fi fún ọ mọ́.
And he called unto the man of God that was come from Judah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the order of the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God had commanded thee;
22 Ìwọ padà, ìwọ sì ti jẹ oúnjẹ, ìwọ sì ti mu omi níbi tí ó ti sọ fún ọ pé kí ìwọ kí ó má ṣe jẹ oúnjẹ tàbí mu omi. Nítorí náà, a kì yóò sin òkú rẹ sínú ibojì àwọn baba rẹ.’”
But didst return, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place, of which he had spoken to thee, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor drink water: thy dead body shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
23 Nígbà tí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run sì ti jẹun tán àti mu omi tan, wòlíì tí ó ti mú u padà sì di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún un.
And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, [to wit, ] for the prophet whom he had brought back.
24 Bí ó sì ti ń lọ ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀, kìnnìún kan pàdé rẹ̀ ní ọ̀nà, ó sì pa á, a sì gbé òkú rẹ̀ sọ sí ojú ọ̀nà, pẹ̀lú kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ àti kìnnìún tí ó dúró tì í lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́.
And when he was gone, a lion met him on the way, and slew him; and his corpse remained cast down on the way, and the ass stood by it, the lion also stood by the corpse.
25 Àwọn ènìyàn tí ó ń kọjá sì rí pé ó gbé òkú náà sọ sí ojú ọ̀nà, kìnnìún náà sì dúró ti òkú náà; wọ́n sì wá, wọ́n sì sọ ọ́ ní ìlú tí wòlíì àgbà náà ń gbé.
And, behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast down on the way, and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and spoke of it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
26 Nígbà tí wòlíì tí ó mú un padà wá láti ọ̀nà rẹ̀ sì gbọ́ èyí, ó sì wí pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà ni tí ó ba ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa jẹ́. Olúwa sì ti fi lé kìnnìún lọ́wọ́, tí ó sì fà á ya, tí ó sì pa á, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó ti kìlọ̀ fún un.”
And when the prophet that had brought him back from the way heard it, he said, It is the man of God who was disobedient unto the order of the Lord; wherefore the Lord hath given him up unto the lion, who hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him.
27 Wòlíì náà sì wí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún mi,” wọ́n sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
And he spoke to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass. And they saddled him.
28 Nígbà náà ni ó sì jáde lọ, ó sì rí òkú náà tí a gbé sọ sí ojú ọ̀nà, pẹ̀lú kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ àti kìnnìún tí ó dúró lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ̀. Kìnnìún náà kò sì jẹ òkú náà, tàbí fa kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà ya.
And he went and found his corpse cast down on the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.
29 Nígbà náà ni wòlíì náà gbé òkú ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà, ó sì gbé e lé orí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, ó sì gbé e padà wá sí ìlú ara rẹ̀ láti ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún un àti láti sin ín.
And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and he came to the city of the old prophet, to lament for, and to bury him.
30 Nígbà náà ni ó gbé òkú náà sínú ibojì ara rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ṣọ̀fọ̀ lórí rẹ̀, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ó ṣe, arákùnrin mi!”
And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they lamented over him, “Alas, my brother!”
31 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti sìnkú rẹ̀ tán, ó sì wí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Nígbà tí mo bá kú, ẹ sin mí ní ibojì níbi tí a sin ènìyàn Ọlọ́run sí; ẹ tẹ́ egungun mi lẹ́bàá egungun rẹ̀.
And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried; beside his bones lay ye my bones;
32 Nítorí iṣẹ́ tí ó jẹ́ nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sí pẹpẹ tí ó wà ní Beteli àti sí gbogbo ojúbọ lórí ibi gíga tí ń bẹ ní àwọn ìlú Samaria yóò wá sí ìmúṣẹ dájúdájú.”
For the thing which he called out by the word of the Lord against the altar which is in Beth-el, and against all the houses of the high-places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely come to pass.
33 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan yìí, Jeroboamu kò padà kúrò nínú ọ̀nà búburú rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ó tún yan àwọn àlùfáà sí i fún àwọn ibi gíga nínú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fẹ́ di àlùfáà, a yà á sọ́tọ̀ fún ibi gíga wọ̀nyí.
After this event Jerobo'am returned not from his evil way; but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high-places: whosoever desired it, he consecrated, that he might become one of the priests of the high-places.
34 Èyí sì ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Jeroboamu, èyí tí ó yọrí sí ìṣubú rẹ̀, a sì pa á run kúrò lórí ilẹ̀.
And he became through this thing the cause of sin unto the house of Jerobo'am, and to cause that it was blotted out, and destroyed from off the face of the earth.
