< 1 Kings 13 >

1 And behold there came a man of God out of Juda, by the word of the Lord to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing upon the altar, and burning incense.
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.
2 And he cried out against the altar in the word of the Lord, and said: O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord: Behold a child shall be born to the house of David, Josias by name, and he shall immolate upon thee the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon thee, and he shall burn men’s bones upon thee.
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.’”
3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying: This shall be the sign, that the Lord hath spoken: Behold the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
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.”
4 And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar in Bethel, he stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying: Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched forth against him withered: and he was not able to draw it back again to him.
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.
5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given before in the word of the Lord.
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.
6 And the king said to the man of God: Entreat the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me. And the man of God besought the face of the Lord, and the king’s hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.
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.
7 And the king said to the man of God: Come home with me to dine, and I will make thee presents.
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.”
8 And the man of God answered the king: If thou wouldst give me half thy house I will not go with thee, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place:
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.
9 For so it was enjoined me by the word of the Lord commanding me: Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water, nor return by the same way that thou camest.
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.’”
10 So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way that he came into Bethel.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó gba ọ̀nà mìíràn, kò sì padà gba ọ̀nà tí ó gbà wá sí Beteli.
11 Now a certain old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came to him and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: and they told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.
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.
12 And their father said to them: What way went he? His sons shewed him the way by which the man of God went, who came out of Juda.
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.
13 And he said to his sons: Saddle me the ass. And when they had saddled him, he got up,
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.
14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a turpentine tree: and he said to him: Art thou the man of God that camest from Juda? He answered: I am.
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.”
15 And he said to him: Come home with me, to eat bread.
Nígbà náà ni wòlíì náà sì wí fún un pé, “Bá mi lọ ilé, kí o sì jẹun.”
16 But he said: I must not return, nor go with thee, neither will I eat bread, nor drink water in this place:
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.
17 Because the Lord spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Thou shalt not eat bread, and thou shalt not drink water there, nor return by the way thou wentest.
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.’”
18 He said to him: I also am a prophet like unto thee: and an angel spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him,
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.)
19 And brought him back with him: so he ate bread and drank water in his house.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ènìyàn Ọlọ́run náà sì padà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì jẹ oúnjẹ ó sì mu omi ní ilé rẹ̀.
20 And as they sat at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back:
Bí wọ́n sì ti jókòó ti tábìlì, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ wòlíì tí ó mú un padà wá pé;
21 And he cried out to the man of God who came out of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast not been obedient to the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
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.
22 And hast returned and eaten bread, and drunk water in the place wherein he commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat bread, nor drink water, thy dead body shall not be brought into the sepulchre of thy fathers.
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.’”
23 And when he had eaten and drunk, he saddled his ass for the prophet, whom he had brought back.
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.
24 And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and killed him, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body.
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.
25 And behold, men passing by saw the dead body cast in the way, and the lion standing by the body. And they came and told it in the city, wherein that old prophet dwelt.
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.
26 And when that prophet, who had brought him back out of the way, heard of it, he said: It is the man of God, that was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord, and the Lord hath delivered him to the lion, and he hath torn him, and killed him according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.
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.”
27 And he said to his sons: Saddle me an ass. And when they had saddled it,
Wòlíì náà sì wí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ di kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ ní gàárì fún mi,” wọ́n sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
28 And he was gone, he found the dead body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten of the dead body, nor hurt the ass.
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.
29 And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and going back brought it into the city of the old prophet, to mourn for him.
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.
30 And he laid his dead body in his own sepulchre: and they mourned over him, saying: Alas! alas! my brother.
Nígbà náà ni ó gbé òkú náà sínú ibojì ara rẹ̀, wọ́n sì ṣọ̀fọ̀ lórí rẹ̀, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ó ṣe, arákùnrin mi!”
31 And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.
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.
32 For assuredly the word shall come to pass which he hath foretold in the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Bethel: and against all the temples of the high places, that are in the cities of Samaria.
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.”
33 After these words Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places.
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.
34 And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.
Èyí sì ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Jeroboamu, èyí tí ó yọrí sí ìṣubú rẹ̀, a sì pa á run kúrò lórí ilẹ̀.
