1 Kings 21
1 Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí Naboti ará Jesreeli sì ní ọgbà àjàrà kan ní Jesreeli, ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ààfin Ahabu ọba Samaria.
And it came to pass after these things, [that] Naboth the Jizreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jizreel, by the side of the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.
2 Ahabu sì wí fún Naboti pé, “Fún mi ní ọgbà àjàrà rẹ, kí èmi kí ó fi ṣe ọgbà-ewébẹ̀, nítorí tí ó súnmọ́ tòsí ilé mi, èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ọgbà àjàrà tí ó sàn jù ú lọ dípò rẹ̀; tàbí bí ó bá sì dára ní ojú rẹ, èmi yóò fi iye owó rẹ̀ fún ọ.”
And Ahab spoke to Naboth saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, for it is near, by the side of my house; and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; if it seem good to thee, I will give thee its value in money.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Naboti wí fún Ahabu pé, “Olúwa má jẹ́ kí èmi fi ogún àwọn baba mi fún ọ.”
And Naboth said to Ahab, Jehovah forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to thee!
4 Ahabu sì wá sí ilé rẹ̀, ó wugbọ́, inú rẹ̀ sì bàjẹ́ nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ tí Naboti ará Jesreeli sọ fún un; nítorí tí ó wí pé, “Èmi kì yóò fún ọ ní ogún àwọn baba mi.” Ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ lórí ibùsùn rẹ̀, ó sì yí ojú rẹ̀ padà, kò sì fẹ́ jẹun.
And Ahab came into his house sullen and vexed because of the word that Naboth the Jizreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And he lay down on his bed, and turned away his face, and ate no bread.
5 Jesebeli aya rẹ̀ sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Èéṣe tí inú rẹ fi bàjẹ́, èéṣe tí ìwọ kò sì jẹun?”
And Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, Why is thy spirit sullen, and thou eatest no bread?
6 Ó sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Nítorí tí mo wí fún Naboti ará Jesreeli pé, ‘Ta ọgbà àjàrà rẹ fún mi, tàbí bí ó bá wù ọ́, èmi yóò fún ọ ní ọgbà àjàrà mìíràn ní ipò rẹ̀.’ Ṣùgbọ́n ó wí pé, ‘Èmi kì yóò fún ọ ní ọgbà àjàrà mi.’”
And he said to her, Because I spoke to Naboth the Jizreelite and said to him, Give me thy vineyard for money; or else, if it please thee, I will give thee a vineyard for it; and he said, I will not give thee my vineyard.
7 Jesebeli aya rẹ̀ sì wí pé, “Ṣé báyìí ni ìwọ yóò ṣe ṣe bí ọba lórí Israẹli? Dìde, jẹun! Kí o sì jẹ́ kí inú rẹ̀ dùn. Èmi yóò sì fún ọ ní ọgbà àjàrà Naboti ará Jesreeli.”
And Jezebel his wife said to him, Dost thou now exercise sovereignty over Israel? arise, eat bread, and let thy heart be glad: I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jizreelite.
8 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó kọ̀wé ní orúkọ Ahabu, ó sì fi èdìdì rẹ̀ dì í, ó sì fi ìwé náà ránṣẹ́ sí àwọn àgbàgbà àti àwọn ọlọ́lá tí ó ń gbé ní ìlú Naboti pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
And she wrote a letter in Ahab's name, and sealed it with his seal, and sent the letter to the elders and to the nobles that were in his city, dwelling with Naboth.
9 Nínú àwọn ìwé náà, ó kọ pé, “Ẹ kéde àwẹ̀, kí ẹ sì fi Naboti sí ipò ọlá láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
And she wrote in the letter saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth at the head of the people;
10 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹ fi ènìyàn méjì, ẹni búburú síwájú rẹ̀ láti jẹ́rìí sí i wí pé, ó bú Ọlọ́run àti ọba. Nígbà náà ni kí ẹ mú u jáde, kí ẹ sì sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa.”
and set two men, sons of Belial, before him, and they shall bear witness against him saying, Thou didst curse God and the king; and carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.
11 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn àgbàgbà àti àwọn ọlọ́lá tí wọ́n ń ṣe ará ìlú Naboti sì ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwé tí Jesebeli kọ ránṣẹ́ sí wọn.
And the men of his city, the elders and the nobles that dwelt in his city, did as Jezebel had sent to them, as it was written in the letter that she had sent to them:
12 Wọ́n sì kéde àwẹ̀, wọ́n sì fi Naboti sí ipò ọlá láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
they proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth at the head of the people.
13 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọkùnrin méjì sì dé, àwọn ẹni búburú, wọ́n sì jókòó síwájú rẹ̀, wọ́n sì jẹ́rìí lòdì sí Naboti níwájú àwọn ènìyàn wí pé, “Naboti ti bú Ọlọ́run àti ọba.” Nígbà náà ni wọ́n mú jáde kúrò ní ìlú, wọ́n sì sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa.
And there came the two men, sons of Belial, and sat before him; and the men of Belial witnessed against him, against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, Naboth blasphemed God and the king. And they carried him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, that he died.
14 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí Jesebeli wí pé, “A ti sọ Naboti ní òkúta, ó sì kú.”
And they sent to Jezebel saying, Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
15 Bí Jesebeli sì ti gbọ́ pé, a ti sọ Naboti ní Òkúta pa, ó sì wí fún Ahabu pé, “Dìde! Kí o sì jogún ọgbà àjàrà Naboti, ará Jesreeli, tí ó kọ̀ láti tà fún ọ kò sí láààyè mọ́, ó ti kú.”
And it came to pass when Jezebel heard that Naboth was stoned and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jizreelite, which he refused to give thee for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
16 Nígbà tí Ahabu sì gbọ́ pé Naboti ti kú, ó sì dìde, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti jogún ọgbà àjàrà Naboti.
And it came to pass when Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, that Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jizreelite, to take possession of it.
17 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wá wí pé,
And the word of Jehovah came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
18 “Sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti lọ pàdé Ahabu ọba Israẹli, tí ó wà ní Samaria. Ó wà ní ọgbà àjàrà Naboti báyìí, níbi tí ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti jogún rẹ̀.
Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, whither he is gone down to take possession of it.
19 Sọ fún un pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò ti pa ènìyàn, o sì ti fi agbára gba ogún rẹ̀?’ Nígbà náà ni kí o wí fún un pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí: Níbi tí ajá gbé lá ẹ̀jẹ̀ Naboti, ni àwọn ajá yóò lá ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ, àní tìrẹ!’”
And thou shalt speak unto him saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him saying, Thus saith Jehovah: In the place where the dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall the dogs lick thy blood, even thine.
20 Ahabu sì wí fún Elijah pé, “Ìwọ ti rí mi, ìwọ ọ̀tá mi!” Ó sì dáhùn wí pé, “Èmi ti rí ọ, nítorí tí ìwọ ti tan ara rẹ láti ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa.
And Ahab said to Elijah, Hast thou found me, mine enemy? And he said, I have found [thee]; because thou hast sold thyself to do evil in the sight of Jehovah.
21 ‘Èmi yóò mú ibi wá sórí rẹ. Èmi yóò sì mú ìran rẹ kúrò, èmi yóò sì ké kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Ahabu gbogbo ọmọdé ọkùnrin, àti ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀, àti òmìnira ní Israẹli.
Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel;
22 Èmi yóò ṣe ilé rẹ bí ilé Jeroboamu, ọmọ Nebati, àti bí ilé Baaṣa, ọmọ Ahijah, nítorí ìwọ ti mú mi bínú, ìwọ sì ti mú Israẹli ṣẹ̀.’
and I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.
23 “Àti ní ti Jesebeli pẹ̀lú Olúwa wí pé, ‘Àwọn ajá yóò jẹ Jesebeli nínú yàrá Jesreeli.’
And of Jezebel also spoke Jehovah saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the moat of Jizreel.
24 “Àwọn ajá yóò jẹ ẹni Ahabu tí ó kú ní ìlú, àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run yóò jẹ àwọn ẹni tí ó kú ní igbó.”
Him that dieth of Ahab in the city shall the dogs eat, and him that dieth in the field shall the fowl of the heavens eat.
25 (Kò sí ẹnìkan bí Ahabu tí ó ta ara rẹ̀ láti ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, ẹni tí Jesebeli aya rẹ̀ ń tì.
(Surely there was none like to Ahab, who did sell himself to do evil in the sight of Jehovah, Jezebel his wife urging him on.
26 Ó sì ṣe ohun ìríra gidigidi ní tí tọ òrìṣà lẹ́yìn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ohun tí àwọn ará Amori ti ṣe, tí Olúwa lé jáde níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.)
And he did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom Jehovah had dispossessed before the children of Israel.)
27 Nígbà tí Ahabu sì gbọ́ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí, ó sì fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya, ó sì fi aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ sí ara rẹ̀, ó sì gbààwẹ̀. Ó sì dùbúlẹ̀ nínú aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀, ó sì ń lọ jẹ́ẹ́.
And it came to pass when Ahab heard these words, that he rent his garments, and put sackcloth upon his flesh, and fasted, and lay in sackcloth, and went softly.
28 Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wá wí pé,
And the word of Jehovah came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
29 “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ti rí bí Ahabu ti rẹ̀ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ níwájú mi? Nítorí tí ó ti rẹ̀ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, èmi kì yóò mú ibi náà wá ní ọjọ́ rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n èmi yóò mú u wá sí ilé rẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ ọmọ rẹ̀.”
Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: in his son's days will I bring the evil upon his house.
