< 2 Kings 1 >
1 Lẹ́yìn ikú Ahabu, Moabu ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Israẹli.
And Moab rebelled against Israel, after the death of Achab.
2 Nísinsin yìí Ahasiah ti ṣubú láàrín fèrèsé láti òkè yàrá rẹ̀ tí ó wà ní Samaria, ó sì fi ara pa. Ó sì rán oníṣẹ́, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ ṣe ìwádìí lọ́wọ́ Baali-Sebubu, òrìṣà Ekroni, bóyá èmi ó lè rí ìwòsàn ìfarapa yìí.”
And Ochozias fell through the lattices of his upper chamber which he had in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, saying to them: Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my illness.
3 Ṣùgbọ́n angẹli Olúwa wí fún Elijah ará Tiṣibi pé, “Lọ sókè kí o lọ bá ìránṣẹ́ ọba Samaria kí o sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn, ‘Ṣé nítorí pé kò sí Ọlọ́run ní Israẹli ni ẹ̀yìn fi jáde lọ ṣèwádìí lọ́wọ́ Baali-Sebubu òrìṣà Ekroni?’
And an angel of the Lord spoke to Elias the Thesbite, saying: Arise, and go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them: Is there not a God in Israel, that ye go to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron?
4 Nítorí náà ohun tí Olúwa sọ ní èyí, ‘Ìwọ kò ní kúrò lórí ibùsùn tí o dùbúlẹ̀ lé. Dájúdájú ìwọ yóò kú!’” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Elijah lọ.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord: From the bed, on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. And Elias went away.
5 Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ náà padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba, ó béèrè ní ọwọ́ wọn pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí ẹ̀yin fi tètè padà wá?”
And the messengers turned back to Ochozias. And he said to them: Why are you come back?
6 Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ọkùnrin kan wá láti pàdé wa, ó sì wí fún wa pé, ‘Ẹ padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba tí ó rán an yín kí ẹ sì wí fún un pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: Ṣé nítorí wí pé kò sí Ọlọ́run ní Israẹli ni o fi ń rán àwọn ènìyàn láti lọ ṣe ìwádìí lọ́wọ́ Baali-Sebubu, òrìṣà Ekroni? Nítorí náà ìwọ kò ní fi orí ibùsùn tí ìwọ dùbúlẹ̀ lé sílẹ̀. Láìsí àní àní ìwọ yóò kùú!”’”
But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that thou sendest to Beelzebub the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but then shalt surely die.
7 Ọba béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Irú ọkùnrin wo ni ó wá pàdé yín, tí ó sì sọ irú èyí fún un yín?”
And he said to them: What manner of man was he who met you, and spoke these words?
8 Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Ó jẹ́ ọkùnrin tí ó wọ ẹ̀wù onírun lára pẹ̀lú ọ̀já àmùrè aláwọ tí ó gbà yíká ìbàdí rẹ̀.” Ọba sì wí pé, “Elijah ará Tiṣibi ni.”
But they said: A hairy man with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said: It is Elias the Thesbite.
9 Ó sì rán balógun pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹgbẹ́ ogun àádọ́ta rẹ̀. Balógun náà sì gòkè tọ Elijah lọ, ẹni tí ó jókòó ní orí òkè, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, ọba wí pé, ‘Sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá!’”
And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down.
10 Elijah sì dá balógun lóhùn pé, “Tí ó bá jẹ́ wí pé ènìyàn Ọlọ́run ni mí, kí iná kí ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti òkè ọ̀run wá kí ó sì jó ìwọ àti àwọn àádọ́ta ọkùnrin rẹ!” Nígbà náà iná náà sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láti òkè ọ̀run ó sì jó balógun àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him.
11 Ọba sì tún rán balógun àádọ́ta pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn àádọ́ta rẹ̀ sí Elijah. Balógun náà sì wí fún un pé, “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, èyí ni ohun tí ọba sọ, ‘Sọ̀kalẹ̀ kánkán!’”
And again he sent to him another captain of fifty men, and his fifty with him. And he said to him: Man of God, thus saith the king: Make haste and come down.
12 “Tí èmi bá jẹ́ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run,” Elijah sì dáhùn, “Ǹjẹ́ kí iná kí ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti ọ̀run kí ó sì jó ọ run àti àwọn àádọ́ta ènìyàn rẹ!” Nígbà náà iná Ọlọ́run sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti ọ̀run ó sì jó o run pẹ̀lú àwọn àádọ́ta ènìyàn rẹ̀.
Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
13 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba tún rán balógun kẹta pẹ̀lú àwọn àádọ́ta ọkùnrin. Balógun ẹ̀ẹ̀kẹ́ta lọ sí òkè, ó sì kúnlẹ̀ lórí orókún rẹ̀ níwájú Elijah. “Ènìyàn Ọlọ́run,” Ó sì bẹ̀bẹ̀ pé, “Ìwọ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run, jọ̀wọ́ jẹ́ kí ẹ̀mí mi àti ẹ̀mí àwọn àádọ́ta ìránṣẹ́ rẹ wọ̀nyí ṣọ̀wọ́n ní ojú rẹ!
Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees, before Elias, and besought him and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me.
14 Wò ó, iná ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti ọ̀run láti jó àwọn balógun méjì àràádọ́ta àkọ́kọ́ pẹ̀lú àràádọ́ta wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ní ojúrere fún ẹ̀mí mi!”
Behold fire came down from heaven, and consumed the two first captains of fifty men, and the fifties that were with them: but now I beseech thee to spare my life.
15 Angẹli Olúwa sọ fún Elijah pé, “Sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; má ṣe bẹ̀rù rẹ̀.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Elijah dìde ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba.
And the angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, saying: Go down with him, fear not. He arose therefore, and went down with him to the king,
16 Ó sọ fún ọba pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, ‘Ṣé nítorí wí pé kò sí Ọlọ́run ní Israẹli fún ọ láti pè ni ìwọ fi rán ìránṣẹ́ lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Baali-Sebubu, òrìṣà Ekroni láti lọ ṣe ìwádìí?’ Nítorí pé o ṣe èyí, ìwọ kò ní dìde lórí ibùsùn tí o dùbúlẹ̀ lé láìsí àní àní ìwọ yóò kú!”
And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die.
17 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ó sì kú, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí Elijah ti sọ. Nítorí Ahasiah kò ní ọmọ, Jehoramu jẹ ọba ní ọdún kejì tí Jehoramu ọmọ Jehoṣafati ọba Juda.
So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elias spoke, and Joram his brother reigned in his stead, in the second year of Joram the son of Josaphat king of Juda: because he had no son.
18 Àti ní ti gbogbo àwọn ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ nígbà ìjọba Ahasiah, àti ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣe a kò ha kọ wọ́n sí inú ìwé ọdọọdún ti àwọn ọba Israẹli?
But the rest of the acts of Ochozias which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
