Ninkii Ilaah Oo Ka Yimid Yahuudah

13 Markaasaa waxaa Yahuudah ka yimid nin Ilaah oo Eraygii Rabbiga ku yimid Beytel; oo Yaaraabcaamna wuxuu ag taagnaa meeshii allabariga inuu foox shido aawadeed. Markaasuu wax ka gees ah meeshii allabariga ku qayliyey sidii Rabbigu ku amray, oo wuxuu yidhi, Meeshii allabarigay, meeshii allabarigay, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Reer Daa'uud waxaa u dhalan doona wiil magiciisa la yidhaahdo Yoosiyaah, oo isna dushaada wuxuu ku qali doonaa wadaaddada meelaha sarsare ee dushaada fooxa ku shida, oo waxaa dushaada lagu gubi doonaa dad lafihiis. Oo isla maalintaasba calaamad buu tusay oo wuxuu yidhi, Tanu waa calaamaddii Rabbigu ku hadlay: Bal ogaada, meesha allabarigu way kala dillaaci doontaa oo dambaska saaranuna wuu soo daadan doonaa. Oo markii boqorkii maqlay hadalkii ninka Ilaah uu ku qayliyey ee ka geesta ahaa meeshii allabariga oo Beytel ku tiil ayuu Yaaraabcaam gacanta ka soo fidiyey meeshii allabariga oo wuxuu yidhi, War ninka qabta. Oo gacantii uu isaga ku fidiyeyna way qallashay, mar dambena wuu soo laabi kari waayay. Oo meeshii allabariguna way kala dillaacday, oo dambaskiina wuu ka soo daatay meeshii allabariga, sidii calaamaddii uu ninka Ilaah bixiyey ee Rabbigu ku amray. Markaasaa boqorkii ugu jawaabay ninkii Ilaah, Haddaba Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah raallinimo iiga bari, oo ii ducee in gacantaydu ii soo noqoto aawadeed. Markaasaa ninkii Ilaah Rabbiga baryay, oo boqorkiina gacantiisii way u soo noqotay, oo waxay u noqotay sidii ay markii hore ahayd. Dabadeedna boqorkii wuxuu ninkii Ilaah ku yidhi, Kaalay, guriga ii raac, oo isqabooji, oo anna waan kuu abaalgudayaa. Kolkaasaa ninkii Ilaah wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Xataa haddaad gurigaaga badhkiis i siinayso ku raaci maayo, oo innaba kibisna ku cuni maayo, biyona ka cabbi maayo meeshan; waayo, Erayga Rabbiga ayaa saas igu amray, oo yidhi, Waa inaadan kibis cunin, biyona cabbin, waana inaadan dib u sii qaadin jidkii aad soo martay. 10 Oo sidaas daraaddeed jid kaluu maray, dib umana uu sii qaadin jidkii uu Beytel u soo maray. 11 Waagaas waxaa Beytel degganaa nebi duq ah, oo wiilashiisii midkood baa u yimid oo u soo sheegay kulli shuqulladii ninka Ilaah maalintaas Beytel ku sameeyey; oo erayadii uu boqorka kula hadlayna aabbahood way u soo sheegeen. 12 Markaasaa aabbahood ku yidhi, Jidkee buu qaaday? Oo wiilashiisuna way arkeen jidkii ninkii Ilaah oo Yahuudah ka yimid qaaday. 13 Markaasuu wiilashiisii ku yidhi, War dameerka ii kooreeya. Dameerkiina way u kooreeyeen oo isna wuu fuulay. 14 Oo ninkii Ilaah wuu daba galay, oo helay isagoo geed hoos fadhiya; kolkaasuu ku yidhi, War ma waxaad tahay ninkii Ilaah oo Yahuudah ka yimid? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Haah, waan ahay. 15 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Kaalay oo gurigaygii ii raac aad kibis soo cuntide. 16 Isna wuxuu yidhi, Kari maayo inaan kula noqdo iyo inaan gurigaaga galo toona. Halkan innaba kibis kugula cuni maayo, biyona kugula cabbi maayo. 17 Waayo, erayga Rabbigu wuxuu igu yidhi, Waa inaadan meeshaas kibis ku cunin, biyona ka cabbin, jidkii aad soo martayna dib ha u sii qaadin. 18 Isna wuxuu ku yidhi, War anba waxaan ahay nebi kula mid ah, oo malaa'ig baa Eraygii Rabbiga igula hadashay oo igu tidhi, Isaga soo celi oo gurigaaga keen inuu kibis cuno oo biyo cabbo. Laakiinse been buu u sheegay. 19 Sidaas daraaddeed wuu la noqday, oo gurigiisii buu kibis ka cunay, biyona ka cabbay. 20 Markaasaa intay miiska wada fadhiyeen uu eraygii Rabbigu u yimid nebigii soo celiyey. 21 Wuuna ku qayliyey ninkii Ilaah oo Yahuudah ka yimid, oo ku yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Caasi baad ku noqotay Rabbiga, mana aadan xajin amarkii Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ahu kugu amray, 22 laakiinse waad soo noqotay oo kibis baad ku cuntay, biyona waad ku cabtay meeshii uu kugu yidhi, Kibis ha ku cunin, biyona ha ku cabbin. Sidaas daraaddeed meydkaagu gaadhi maayo xabaashii awowayaashaa. 23 Oo markuu kibis cunay oo biyo cabbay dabadeed ayuu dameerkiisii u kooreeyey nebigii uu soo celiyey. 24 Oo markuu ka tegey ayaa libaax jidkii kaga hor yimid, wuuna dilay isagii; oo meydkiisiina waxaa lagu tuuray jidka dhexdiisa, oo dameerkiina wuu ag taagnaa; libaaxiina wuxuu dhinac taagnaa meydka. 25 Oo bal eeg, dad baa soo ag maray, oo waxay arkeen meydka jidka lagu tuuray iyo libaaxa meydka agtiisa taagan; oo waxay yimaadeen magaaladii nebiga duqa ahu degganaa, markaasay dadkii u sheegeen. 26 Oo nebigii isaga jidka ka soo celiyey markuu taas maqlay ayuu yidhi, Waa ninkii Ilaah oo ku caasiyoobay Rabbiga; oo sidaas daraaddeed ayuu Rabbigu isaga ugu gacan gashay libaaxa dildillaacsaday oo dilay, taasuna waa sidii uu ahaa erayguu Rabbigu kula hadlay. 27 Markaasuu wiilashiisii la hadlay oo ku yidhi, War dameerka ii kooreeya. Oo iyana way u kooreeyeen. 28 Kolkaasuu tegey oo wuxuu helay meydkiisii oo jidka dhex yaal, iyo dameerkii iyo libaaxii oo meydka ag taagan; libaaxiina meydkii ma cunin, dameerkiina ma dildillaacsan. 29 Oo nebigiina wuxuu qaaday meydkii ninkii Ilaah, oo kor saaray dameerkii, wuuna soo celiyey. Markaasuu yimid magaaladii nebigii duqa ahaa inuu halkaas ku aaso oo ugu baroorto. 30 Oo xabaashiisii uu isagu lahaa ayuu meydkiisii geliyey, wayna u baroorteen, oo yidhaahdeen, Hoognay, walaalkayow! 31 Oo markuu aasay dabadeed ayuu wiilashiisii la hadlay oo ku yidhi, Markaan dhinto igu xabaala xabaashii ninkii Ilaah lagu xabaalay, oo lafahayga lafihiisa ag dhiga. 32 Waayo, hadalkii uu amarkii Rabbiga ku qayliyey ee ka geesta ahaa meesha allabariga oo Beytel ku taal, iyo kulli guryaha meelaha sarsare oo ku yaal magaalooyinka reer Samaariya, hubaal wuu ahaan doonaa.

33 Oo waxyaalahaas dabadood Yaaraabcaam kama uu noqon jidkiisii sharka ahaa, laakiinse wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ka doortay wadaaddo meelaha sarsare; oo mid kasta oo doonayayba wuu daahiriyey inay jiraan wadaaddo meelaha sarsare. 34 Oo taasuna dembi bay u noqotay reer Yaaraabcaam iyo xataa inay gooyso oo dhulka ka baabbi'iso.

The Man of God From Judah

13 By the word of the Lord a man of God(A) came from Judah to Bethel,(B) as Jeroboam was standing by the altar to make an offering. By the word of the Lord he cried out against the altar: “Altar, altar! This is what the Lord says: ‘A son named Josiah(C) will be born to the house of David. On you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places(D) who make offerings here, and human bones will be burned on you.’” That same day the man of God gave a sign:(E) “This is the sign the Lord has declared: The altar will be split apart and the ashes on it will be poured out.”

When King Jeroboam heard what the man of God cried out against the altar at Bethel, he stretched out his hand from the altar and said, “Seize him!” But the hand he stretched out toward the man shriveled up, so that he could not pull it back. Also, the altar was split apart and its ashes poured out according to the sign given by the man of God by the word of the Lord.

Then the king said to the man of God, “Intercede(F) with the Lord your God and pray for me that my hand may be restored.” So the man of God interceded with the Lord, and the king’s hand was restored and became as it was before.

The king said to the man of God, “Come home with me for a meal, and I will give you a gift.”(G)

But the man of God answered the king, “Even if you were to give me half your possessions,(H) I would not go with you, nor would I eat bread(I) or drink water here. For I was commanded by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water or return by the way you came.’” 10 So he took another road and did not return by the way he had come to Bethel.

11 Now there was a certain old prophet living in Bethel, whose sons came and told him all that the man of God had done there that day. They also told their father what he had said to the king. 12 Their father asked them, “Which way did he go?” And his sons showed him which road the man of God from Judah had taken. 13 So he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” And when they had saddled the donkey for him, he mounted it 14 and rode after the man of God. He found him sitting under an oak tree and asked, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?”

“I am,” he replied.

15 So the prophet said to him, “Come home with me and eat.”

16 The man of God said, “I cannot turn back and go with you, nor can I eat bread(J) or drink water with you in this place. 17 I have been told by the word of the Lord: ‘You must not eat bread or drink water there or return by the way you came.’”

18 The old prophet answered, “I too am a prophet, as you are. And an angel said to me by the word of the Lord:(K) ‘Bring him back with you to your house so that he may eat bread and drink water.’” (But he was lying(L) to him.) 19 So the man of God returned with him and ate and drank in his house.

20 While they were sitting at the table, the word of the Lord came to the old prophet who had brought him back. 21 He cried out to the man of God who had come from Judah, “This is what the Lord says: ‘You have defied(M) the word of the Lord and have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you. 22 You came back and ate bread and drank water in the place where he told you not to eat or drink. Therefore your body will not be buried in the tomb of your ancestors.’”

23 When the man of God had finished eating and drinking, the prophet who had brought him back saddled his donkey for him. 24 As he went on his way, a lion(N) met him on the road and killed him, and his body was left lying on the road, with both the donkey and the lion standing beside it. 25 Some people who passed by saw the body lying there, with the lion standing beside the body, and they went and reported it in the city where the old prophet lived.

26 When the prophet who had brought him back from his journey heard of it, he said, “It is the man of God who defied(O) the word of the Lord. The Lord has given him over to the lion, which has mauled him and killed him, as the word of the Lord had warned him.”

27 The prophet said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they did so. 28 Then he went out and found the body lying on the road, with the donkey and the lion standing beside it. The lion had neither eaten the body nor mauled the donkey. 29 So the prophet picked up the body of the man of God, laid it on the donkey, and brought it back to his own city to mourn for him and bury him. 30 Then he laid the body in his own tomb,(P) and they mourned over him and said, “Alas, my brother!”(Q)

31 After burying him, he said to his sons, “When I die, bury me in the grave where the man of God is buried; lay my bones(R) beside his bones. 32 For the message he declared by the word of the Lord against the altar in Bethel and against all the shrines on the high places(S) in the towns of Samaria(T) will certainly come true.”(U)

33 Even after this, Jeroboam did not change his evil ways,(V) but once more appointed priests for the high places from all sorts(W) of people. Anyone who wanted to become a priest he consecrated for the high places. 34 This was the sin(X) of the house of Jeroboam that led to its downfall and to its destruction(Y) from the face of the earth.
