< 2 Kings 1 >

1 Lẹ́yìn ikú Ahabu, Moabu ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Israẹli.
Then did Moab rebel 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 Achazyah fell down through the lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria, and became sick; and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron whether I shall recover from this sickness.
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?’
But an angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron?
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.
Now therefore, thus hath said the Lord, From the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for thou shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.
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 returned unto him, and he said unto them, Why is this that ye are already returned?
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!”’”
And they said unto him, There came up a man to meet us, and he said unto us, Go, return unto the king that hath sent you, and speak unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Is it because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the god of 'Ekron? therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for thou 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 spoke unto them, What is the manner of the man who came up to meet you, and spoke unto you 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.”
And they said unto him, He is a hairy man, with a girdle of leather girded about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
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!’”
Then did he send unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty: and he went up to him, and, behold, he was sitting on the top of the mount; and he spoke unto him, O man of God, the king hath commanded, 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 Elijah answered and spoke to the captain of the fifty, And if I be a man of God, let a fire come down from heaven and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down a fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
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 he sent again unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he commenced and spoke unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.
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.
And Elijah answered and spoke unto them, If I be a man of God, let a fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God 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!
And he sent again a captain of fifty the third time with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and bent down on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and spoke unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life and the life of these fifty thy servants be precious in thy eyes.
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, there came down a fire from heaven, and consumed the two captains of the first fifties with their fifties; and now let my life be precious in thy eyes.
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 unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him, and he arose, and went down with him unto 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 he spoke unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Forasmuch as thou didst send messengers to inquire of Ba'al-zebub the God of 'Ekron, as though there were no God in Israel to inquire of his word: therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up shalt thou not come down; for 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.
And he died, according to the word of the Lord which Elijah had spoken; and Jehoram became king in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah; 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?
Now the rest of the acts of Achazyahu which he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
