< 1 Kings 21 >

1 And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard near the palace of Achab king of Samaria.
Ó sì ṣe lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí Naboti ará Jesreeli sì ní ọgbà àjàrà kan ní Jesreeli, ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ ààfin Ahabu ọba Samaria.
2 And Achab spoke to Naboth, saying: Give me thy vineyard, that I may make me a garden of herbs, because it is nigh, and adjoining to my house, and I will give thee for it a better vineyard: or if thou think it more convenient for thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
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.”
3 Naboth answered him: The Lord be merciful to me, and not let me give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
Ṣùgbọ́n Naboti wí fún Ahabu pé, “Olúwa má jẹ́ kí èmi fi ogún àwọn baba mi fún ọ.”
4 And Achab came into his house angry and fretting, because of the word that Naboth the Jezrahelite had spoken to him, saying: I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And casting himself upon his bed, he turned away his face to the wall, and would eat no bread.
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.
5 And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and said to him: What is the matter that thy soul is so grieved? and why eatest thou no bread?
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?”
6 And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard.
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.’”
7 Then Jezabel his wife said to him: Thou art of great authority indeed, and governest well the kingdom of Israel. Arise, and eat bread, and be of good cheer, I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
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.”
8 So she wrote letter’s in Achab’s name, and sealed them with his ring, and sent them to the ancients, and the chief men that were in his city, and that dwelt with Naboth.
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.
9 And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people,
Nínú àwọn ìwé náà, ó kọ pé, “Ẹ kéde àwẹ̀, kí ẹ sì fi Naboti sí ipò ọlá láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
10 And suborn two men, sons of Belial against him, and let them bear false witness: that he hath blasphemed God and the king: and then carry him out, and stone him, and so let him die.
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.”
11 And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them:
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.
12 They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people.
Wọ́n sì kéde àwẹ̀, wọ́n sì fi Naboti sí ipò ọlá láàrín àwọn ènìyàn.
13 And bringing two men, sons of the devil, they made them sit against him: and they, like men of the devil, bore witness against him before the people, saying: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the king: wherefore they brought him forth without the city, and stoned him to death.
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.
14 And they sent to Jezabel, saying: Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí Jesebeli wí pé, “A ti sọ Naboti ní òkúta, ó sì kú.”
15 And it came to pass when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
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.”
16 And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it.
Nígbà tí Ahabu sì gbọ́ pé Naboti ti kú, ó sì dìde, ó sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti jogún ọgbà àjàrà Naboti.
17 And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wá wí pé,
18 Arise, and go down to meet Achab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold he is going down to the vineyard of Naboth, to take possession of it:
“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.
19 And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast slain, moreover also thou hast taken possession. And after these words thou shalt add: Thus saith the Lord: In this place, wherein the dogs have licked the blood of Naboth, they shall lick thy blood also.
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!’”
20 And Achab said to Elias: Hast thou found me thy enemy? He said: I have found thee, because thou art sold, to do evil in the sight of the Lord.
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.
21 Behold I will bring evil upon thee, and I will cut down thy posterity, and I will kill of Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel.
‘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.
22 And I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias: for what thou hast done, to provoke me to anger, and for making Israel to sin.
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.’
23 And of Jezabel also the Lord spoke, saying: The dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel.
“Àti ní ti Jesebeli pẹ̀lú Olúwa wí pé, ‘Àwọn ajá yóò jẹ Jesebeli nínú yàrá Jesreeli.’
24 If Achab die in the city, the dogs shall eat him: but if he die in the field, the birds of the air shall eat him.
“Àwọn ajá yóò jẹ ẹni Ahabu tí ó kú ní ìlú, àwọn ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run yóò jẹ àwọn ẹni tí ó kú ní igbó.”
25 Now there was not such another as Achab, who was sold to do evil in the sight of the Lord: for his wife Jezabel set him on,
(Kò sí ẹnìkan bí Ahabu tí ó ta ara rẹ̀ láti ṣe búburú níwájú Olúwa, ẹni tí Jesebeli aya rẹ̀ ń tì.
26 And he became abominable, insomuch that he followed the idols which the Amorrhites had made, whom the Lord destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.
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.)
27 And when Achab had heard these words, he rent his garments, and put haircloth upon his flesh, and fasted and slept in sackcloth, and walked with his head cast down.
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.
28 And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
Nígbà náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa sì tọ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wá wí pé,
29 Hast thou not seen Achab humbled before me? therefore, because he hath humbled himself for my sake, I will not bring the evil in his days, but in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
“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.”
