¹Zvino mazuva mazhinji akati apfuura, shoko raJehovha rikasvika kuna Eria negore rechitatu, richiti, Enda undozviratidza kuna Ahabhi; ndigotuma mvura panyika.

¹Oo wakhti dheer dabadiis waxay noqotay in sannaddii saddexaad eraygii Rabbigu Eliiyaah u yimid oo uu ku yidhi, Tag oo Axaab istus, oo anna roob baan dhulka ku soo daynayaa.

²Ipapo Eria akandozviratidza kuna Ahabhi. Zvino nzara yakanga yanyanya kwazvo paSamaria.

²Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab istuso. Oo abaartuna aad bay ugu xumayd Samaariya.

³Ahabhi akadana Obhadhiya, iye wakange ari mutariri weimba yake. (Zvino Obhadhiya wakange achitya Jehovha kwazvo;

³Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu u yeedhay Cobadyaah oo shuqulkii guriga u sarreeyey. (Haddaba Cobadyaah Rabbiga aad buu uga cabsan jiray,

⁴nekuti nenguva iyo Izebheri yaakaparadza nayo navaporofita vaJehovha, Obhadhia wakatora vaporofita vane zana, akavavanza makumi mashanu namakumi mashanuzve mubako, akavapa chingwa nemvura.)

⁴waayo, markay Yesebeel baabbi'isay nebiyadii Rabbiga ayaa Cobadyaah kaxeeyey boqol nebi, oo kontonba god buu ku qariyey, oo wuxuu ku quudin jiray kibis iyo biyo.)

⁵Zvino Ahabhi akati kuna Obhadhiya, Famba nenyika, kumatsime emvura, nokuhova dzose; zvimwe tingawana bundo, tiraramise mabhiza namahesera,tirege kurashikirwa nechimwe chezvipfuwo.

⁵Markaasaa Axaab wuxuu Cobadyaah ku yidhi, Bal tag, oo dalka oo dhan dhex mar, ilaa ilaha biyaha oo dhan, iyo durdurrada oo dhan, waaba intaasoo aynu daaq helnaa, si aynu fardaha iyo baqlaha u noolayno, oo ayan cuudka oo dhammu nooga dhammaan.

⁶Naizvozvo vakagovana nyika, kuti vafambe nayo; Ahabhi akaenda ari oga kuno rumwe rutivi, Obhadhiya akaendawo ari oga kuno rumwe rutivi.

⁶Sidaas daraaddeed dhulkii way qaybsadeen inay soo wada dhex maraan; Axaab keligiis dhan buu u sahamiyey, Cobadyaahna dhankii kaluu keligiis u sahamiyey.

⁷Zvino Obhadhiya wakati ari panzira, Eria akasangana naye; akamuziva, akawira pasi nechiso chake, akati, Ndimi here, ishe wangu Eria?

⁷Oo bal eeg, Cobadyaah intuu jidkii sii socday ayaa waxaa ka hor yimid Eliiyaah; oo wuu aqooday, markaasuu wejiga dhulka saaray, oo wuxuu yidhi, Eliiyaahow sayidkaygiiyow, ma adigii baa?

⁸Iye akamupindura, akati, Ndini; enda unoudza ishe wako, uti, Tarirai, Eria ari pano.

⁸Markaasuu ugu jawaabay, Haah, waa anigii; haddaba tag oo sayidkaagii waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, War Eliiyaah halkanuu joogaa.

⁹Iye akati, Ndatadzeiko, zvamoda kuisa muranda wenyu mumaoko aAhabhi, andiuraye?

⁹Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, War maxaan ku dembaabay, oo aad u doonaysaa anoo addoonkaaga ah inaad Axaab ii gacangeliso inuu i dilo aawadeed?

¹⁰NaJehovha Mwari wenyu mupenyu, hapano rudzi kana ushe kwaasina kutuma iye ishe wangu kukutsvakai; kana vakati, Haapo pano, waipikisa ushe uhwo kana rudzi urwo, kuti havana kukuwanai.

¹⁰Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah noloshiisaan ku dhaartaye inaan la arag quruun iyo boqortooyo uusan sayidkaygu cid u dirin si uu kaaga goobo; oo markay yidhaahdeen, Halkan ma joogo, ayuu boqortooyo kasta iyo quruun kastaba dhaariyey inay ku waayeen.

¹¹Zvino moti, Enda undoudza ishe wako, uti, Eria ari pano.

¹¹Oo imminka waxaad leedahay, Tag, oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo.

¹²Zvimwe ndichangobva kwamuri, Mweya waJehovha ndokukuisai kwandisingazivi; zvino kana ndikandoudza Ahabhi, akakushayai, uchandiuraya, asi ini muranda wenyu ndinotya Jehovha kubva pauduku hwangu.

¹²Oo bal eeg waxay noqon doontaa markaan kaa tago in Ruuxa Rabbigu kuu qaadi doona meel aanan aqoon, oo sidaas daraaddeed markaan Axaab u tago oo kuu soo sheego, oo uu ku waayo aniguu i dilayaa; laakiinse anigoo addoonkaaga ah Rabbiga waan ka cabsan jiray tan iyo dhallinyaranimadaydii.

¹³Ishe wangu hamuna kuudzwa here zvandakaita panguva iya Izebheri yaakauraya nayo vaporofita vaJehovha kuti ndakavanza vaporofita vaJehovha, vane zana, makumi mashanu namakumi mashanu mubako, ndikavapa zvingwa nemvura?

¹³Oo sayidkaygiiyow, miyaan laguu sheegin wixii aan sameeyey markii Yesebeel laysay nebiyadii Rabbiga, iyo sidaan u qariyey boqol nin oo Rabbiga nebiyadiisii ah, oo aan kontonba god geliyey, oo aan kibis iyo biyo ku quudiyey?

¹⁴Zvino moti, Chindoudza ishe wako, uti, Eria ari pano. Iye uchandiuraya.

¹⁴Oo hadda waxaad igu leedahay, Tag oo sayidkaagii u sheeg in Eliiyaah halkan joogo; oo isna wuu i dilayaa.

¹⁵Eria akati, NaJehovha wehondo mupenyu, iye wandimire pamberi pake, ndichazviratidza kwaari nhasi zvirokwazvo.

¹⁵Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Waxaan ku dhaartay Rabbiga ciidammada ee aan hor taagnahay noloshiisa inaan xaqiiqa maanta isaga isu muujinayo.

¹⁶Naizvozvo Obhadhiya akaenda kuna Ahabhi, akamuudza Ahabhi akandosangana naEria.

¹⁶Sidaas daraaddeed Cobadyaah wuxuu u tegey inuu Axaab la kulmo, wuuna u soo sheegay; markaasaa Axaab u tegey inuu Eliiyaah la kulmo.

¹⁷Zvino Ahabhi wakati achiona Eria, Ahabhi akati kwaari, Ndiwe here, iwe mutambudzi waIsiraeri?

¹⁷Oo markuu Axaab arkay Eliiyaah ayuu ku yidhi, War ma adigii baa kii dadkii Israa'iil dhibayayow?

¹⁸Iye akati, Ini handina kutambudza Isiraeri; asi ndiwe neimba yababa vako, nekuti makasiya mirairo yaJehovha, mukatevera vaBhaari.

¹⁸Markaasuu u jawaabay, oo ku yidhi, Anigu dadkii Israa'iil ma aanan dhibin, laakiinse waxaa dhibay adiga iyo reerka aabbahaa, waayo, waxaad ka tagteen amarradii Rabbiga, oo weliba waxaad raacday Bacaliim.

¹⁹Naizvozvo zvino chituma vanhu uunganidze vaIsiraeri vose pagomo reKarimeri, navaporofita vaBhaari vana mazana mana vanodya patafura yaIzebheri,

¹⁹Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed u cid dir, oo dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo Bacal nebiyadiisa ah afar boqol iyo konton, iyo geedihii Asheeraah nebiyadooda ah afar boqol oo miiska Yesebeel wax ka cuna, kulli ku soo wada ururi Buur Karmel.

²⁰Naizvozvo Ahabhi akatuma vanhu kuvana vaIsiraeri vose, akaunganidza vaporofita pagomo reKarimeri.

²⁰Sidaas daraaddeed Axaab wuxuu u cid diray dadkii Israa'iil oo dhan, oo nebiyadiina wuxuu ku soo wada ururiyey Buur Karmel.

²¹Zvino Eria akaswedera kuvanhu vose, akati, Mucharamba muchikamhina pamifungo miviri kusvikira rinhiko? Kana Jehovha ari Mwari, mumutevere, kana ari Bhaari, mumutevere iye. Asi vanhu havana kupindura shoko rimwe.

²¹Markaasaa Eliiyaah u soo dhowaaday dadkii oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War ilaa goormaad laba ra'yi u dhexaynaysaan? War haddii Rabbigu Ilaah yahay isaga raaca, laakiinse haddii Bacal Ilaah yahay isaga raaca. Oo dadkiina isagii xataa eray keliya uguma jawaabin.

²²Ipapo Eria akati kuvanhu, Ini, iyeni ndoga, ndini ndasara kuvaporofita vaJehovha, asi vaporofita vaBhaari vanosvika varume vana mazana mana namakumi mashanu.

²²Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu haddana dadkii ku yidhi, Anigoo keliya ayaa ka hadhay nebiyadii Rabbiga, laakiinse Bacal nebiyadiisu waa afar boqol iyo konton nin.

²³Naizvozvo ngavatipe nzombe mbiri, ivo vazvitsaurire nzombe imwe, vaiguranye, vaiise pamusoro pehuni, asi varege kuisa moto pasi payo; neniwo ndichagadzira imwe nzombe, ndichiisa pamusoro pehuni, asi ndisingaisi moto pasi payo.

²³Haddaba bal laba dibi ha naloo keeno, oo iyagu dibi ha doorteen, oo ha jarjareen, oo qoryaha ha dul saareen, oo innaba dab yay hoosta ka gelin; oo anna dibiga kalaan qalayaa, oo qoryahaan dul saarayaa, oo innaba dab hoosta ka gelin maayo.

²⁴Zvino imwi mudane zita ramwari wenyu, ini ndidanewo zita raJehovha, Mwari unopindura nomoto, iye ngaave Mwari. Vanhu vose vakapindura, vakati, Zvarehwa zvakanaka.

²⁴Oo markaas idinku u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna, oo anna waxaan u yeedhanayaa magaca Rabbiga; oo markaas Ilaahii dab ku soo jawaabaa ha ahaado Ilaah. Markaasaa dadkii oo dhammu jawaabeen oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kaasu waa hadal wanaagsan.

²⁵Ipapo Eria akati kuvaporofita vaBhaari, Chizvitsaurirai nzombe imwe, mutange kuigadzira, nekuti muri vazhinji; mudane zita ramwari wenyu, asi murege kuisa moto pasi payo.

²⁵Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu nebiyadii Bacal ku yidhi, Bal idinku dibi doorta oo marka hore qala, dabse hoosta ha ka gelinina, oo idinku waad badan tihiine marka hore u yeedha magaca ilaahiinna.

²⁶Ivo vakatora nzombe yavakanga vapiwa, vakaigadzira, vakadana zita raBhaari kubva mangwanani kusvikira masikati makuru, vachiti, Bhaari, tinzwei! Asi kwakanga kusine inzwi kana unopindura. Vakapoteredza aritari yakanga yavakwa vachipembera.

²⁶Markaasay qaateen dibigii la siiyey, wayna qaleen, oo aroortii ilaa duhurkii ayay u yeedhanayeen magicii Bacal, oo waxay lahaayeen, Bacalow, na maqal! Laakiinse cod iyo wax iyaga u jawaabay toona ma jirin. Oo meeshii allabariga oo la dhisay hareeraheeda ayay boodboodayeen.

²⁷Zvino panguva yamasikati makuru Eria akavasweveredza, akati, Danidzirai nenzwi guru; nekuti ndimwari, zvimwe ari pakufunga, zvimwe wambosuduruka, zvimwe wafamba rwendo, kana zvimwe uvete hake, anofanira kumutswa.

²⁷Oo waxay duhurkii noqotay inuu Eliiyaah iyagii ku majaajilooday oo ku yidhi, War aad u qayliya; waayo, waa ilaah, oo mindhaa wuu isla tashanayaa, ama gees buu u leexday, ama socdaal buu ku maqan yahay, ama mindhaa wuu iska hurdaa oo waa in la toosiyaa.

²⁸Ipapo vakadanidzira kwazvo, vakazvicheka netsika dzavo neminondo namapfumo, kusvikira ropa richidzutuka kwavari.

²⁸Markaasay aad u qayliyeen, oo sidii caadadoodu ahayd waxay isku jareen mindiyo iyo eebooyin ilamaa dhiig ka soo burqaday.

²⁹Masikati makuru akati apfuura, vakaporofita kusvikira panguva yokubayira chipo chamadekwana; asi kwakanga kusina inzwi kana unopindura, kana wakange achiteerera.

²⁹Oo markii hadhkii la dhaafay ayay sidii nebi wax sii sheegayeen ilaa wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, laakiinse cod iyo wax u jawaaba iyo wax ka dan leh midna ma jirin.

³⁰Ipapo Eria akati kuvanhu vose, Swederai kwandiri, vanhu vose vakaswedera kwaari. Zvino wakagadzira aritari yaJehovha yakanga yaputswa.

³⁰Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku yidhi, Haddaba ii soo dhowaada; kolkaasaa dadkii oo dhammu u soo dhowaadeen, dabadeedna meeshii allabariga ee Rabbiga ee la dumiyey ayuu hagaajiyey.

³¹Eria akatora mabwe ane gumi namaviri akaenzana namarudzi avana vaJakove iye wakange audzwa naJehovha zvichinzi, Zita rako richanzi Isiraeri.

³¹Oo wuxuu Eliiyaah soo qaaday laba iyo toban dhagax oo ka dhigan intii qabiilooyinkii wiilashii Yacquub tiradoodu ahayd, kaasoo eraygii Rabbigu u yimid oo ku yidhi, Magacaagu wuxuu ahaan doonaa Israa'iil.

³²Akavaka aritari namabwe iwayo nezita raJehovha, akachera goronga rakakomba aritari rakanga rakaenzana napangadzvarwa zviyero zviviri zvezviyo.

³²Oo dhagxantii wuxuu meel allabari ugu dhisay magaca Rabbiga, oo meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda wuxuu ka qoday meel ku wareegsan oo qaadi karta laba qiyaas oo midho ah.

³³Akaronga huni, akaguranya nzombe, akaiisa pamusoro pehuni, akati, Chizadzai zvirongo zvina nemvura, muidire pamusoro pechipiriso chinopiswa, napamusoro pehuni.

³³Oo qoryihiina si hagaagsan buu u saaray, oo dibigiina intuu jarjaray ayuu qoryihii dul saaray. Markaasuu yidhi, Afar barmiil biyo ka soo buuxiya oo ku dul shuba qurbaanka la gubo iyo qoryahaba.

³⁴Akati, Itai izvozvo rwechipiri, vakazviita rwechipiri. Akati, Itai izvozvo rwechitatu; vakazviita rwechitatu.

³⁴Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar labaad yeela, iyana way yeeleen mar labaad. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidii oo kale mar saddexaad yeela, oo iyana way yeeleen mar saddexaad.

³⁵Mvura ikayerera, ikapoteredza aritari; akazadza negorongawo nemvura.

³⁵Oo biyihii waxay qulquleen meeshii allabariga hareeraheeda, oo xataa meeshii la qodayna wuxuu ka buuxshay biyo.

³⁶Nenguva yokubayira chipo chamadekwana, muporofita Eria akaswedera, akati, Imi Jehovha, Mwari waAbhurahamu, nowaIsaka, nowaIsiraeri, uye kuti ini ndiri muranda wenyu, uye kuti ndakaita izvi zvose ndarairwa nemi.

³⁶Oo markii la gaadhay wakhtigii la bixin jiray allabarigii fiidnimada, Nebi Eliiyaah waa soo dhowaaday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, Ibraahim iyo Isxaaq iyo Israa'iil Ilaahoodiiyow, maanta dalka Israa'iil ha lagu dhex ogaado inaad adigu Ilaah tahay, oo aan anna ahay addoonkaaga, iyo inaan waxyaalahan oo dhan eraygaaga ku sameeyey.

³⁷Ndinzwei Jehovha, ndinzwei, kuti vanhu ava vazive kuti imwi Jehovha ndimi Mwari, uye kuti ndimi makadzosazve moyo yavo.

³⁷Rabbiyow, i maqal oo i maqal, inay dadkanu ogaadaan inaad adigu Ilaah tahay Rabbiyow, iyo inaad qalbigooda soo celisay.

³⁸Ipapo moto waJehovha wakaburuka, ukapedza chipiriso chinopiswa, nehuni, namabwe, neguruva, ukananzva mvura yakanga iri mugoronga.

³⁸Markaasaa Rabbiga dabkiisii soo dhacay oo wuxuu gubay allabariga la gubo, iyo qoryihii, iyo dhagxantii, iyo boodhkii, oo xataa biyihii godka ku jirayna ololkii baa leefay.

³⁹Vanhu vose vakati vachizviona, vakawira pasi nezviso zvavo, vakati, Jehovha ndiye Mwari, Jehovha ndiye Mwari!

³⁹Oo markii dadkii taas arkay ayay wejiga u wada dhaceen; oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah, Rabbigu isagu waa Ilaah.

⁴⁰Eria akati kwavari, Batai vaporofita vaBhaari, varege kupukunyuka kunyange nomumwe wavo. Vakavabata. Eria akaburuka navo kurukova Kishoni, akavaurayirapo.

⁴⁰Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Nebiyada Bacal qabta oo midna yuusan ka baxsan. Oo iyana way soo qabteen; markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu iyagii keenay durdurka Qiishoon agtiisa, oo halkaasuu iyagii ku laayay.

⁴¹Eria akati kuna Ahabhi, Chirongedzai, mudye, mumwe, nekuti kuno kuunga kwemvura zhinji.

⁴¹Markaasaa Eliiyaah wuxuu Axaab ku yidhi, War kac oo wax cun, oo wax cab, waayo, waxaa sanqadhaya roob badan!

⁴²Naizvozvo Ahabhi akarongedza kundodya nokumwa. Eria akakwira pamusoro pegomo reKarimeri, akagwadamira pasi, akaisa chiso chake pakati pamabvi ake;

⁴²Markaasaa Axaab u kacay inuu wax cuno oo wax cabbo. Oo Eliiyaahna wuxuu fuulay Buur Karmel dusheeda, oo intuu foororsaday ayuu dhulka ku sujuuday oo wejigiisiina wuxuu geliyey lowyihiisa dhexdooda.

⁴³akati kumuranda wake, Chikwira zvino, utarire kurutivi rwegungwa. Akakwira akatarira, akati, Hakuna chinhu. Akati, Endazve, kanomwe.

⁴³Markaasuu midiidinkiisii ku yidhi, Bal tag oo badda xaggeeda fiiri. Kolkaasuu tegey oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu yidhi, Waxba lama arko. Oo haddana wuxuu ku yidhi, Ku noqo toddoba jeer.

⁴⁴Zvino panguva yechinomwe akati, Tarirai, kune gore duku, rinokwira richibva mugungwa, rakafanana nechanza chomunhu. Akati, Enda, undoti kuna Ahabhi, Sungai ngoro yenyu, muburuke, kuti murege kudzivirirwa nemvura.

⁴⁴Oo waxaa dhacday inuu markii toddobaad yidhi, Waxaa badda ka kacday daruur yar oo nin gacantiis le'eg. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Orod oo waxaad Axaab ku tidhaahdaa, War, gaadhifaraskaaga diyaarso oo dhaadhac, yaan roobku ku joojine.

⁴⁵Zvino nguva duku yakati yapfuura, denga rikasviba namakore nemhepo, mvura zhinji ikanaya Ahabhi akaenda nengoro, akasvika Jezereeri.

⁴⁵Oo wakhti yar dabadiis cirkii ayaa daruuro iyo dabayl la madoobaaday, oo waxaa jiray roob weyn. Oo Axaabna gaadhifaraskiisii buu fuulay, oo wuxuu tegey Yesreceel.Oo Eliiyaah waxaa la jiray gacantii Rabbiga, oo intuu guntigiisii dhexda ku giigsaday ayuu Axaab hor ordayay ilaa meeshii Yesreceel laga galo.

⁴⁶Ruoko rwaJehovha rukasimbisa Eria; akazvisunga chivuno chake, akamhanya pamberi paAhabhi kusvikira pasuwo reJezereeri.

⁴⁶Oo Eliiyaah waxaa la jiray gacantii Rabbiga, oo intuu guntigiisii dhexda ku giigsaday ayuu Axaab hor ordayay ilaa meeshii Yesreceel laga galo.
