1 Ahabu mwabya abihola, abandu be Moabu mubaghana obutabali bwe Israeli.
2 Kiro kighuma, omwami Ahazia abya iniane omo kyumba ky’enyumba yiwe e Samaria. Neryo mwatogha, amalaba omo kitobo ekyabyako akayingilo ky’oko kyumba kiwe ekyabya oko lutwe, neryo amahutala. Neryo mwatuma abandu ati bayabulaye Baali-zebubu, omungu we Ekroni, ng’anemwendilama.
3 Aliwe omumalaika wa Yehova mwabwira Eliya* Omutishbi ati: “Ghenda, uyasungane n’abandu abo omwami we Samaria alyatuma, ubabwire uti, ‘Ni Kundi e Israeli siyiri oMungu kyo kiryaleka iwatuma abandu uti bayabulaye Baali-zebubu, omungu we Ekroni?
4 Neryo Yehova ati: “Siwendilua omo ngyingo eyo ughotsereko, kundi ukendihola.”’” Neryo Eliya mwaghenda.
5 Abandu abo omwami atuma babere babisuba eyiri omwami, mwalw’iniababulya ati: “Mwamalw’imwasubula busanaki?”
6 Mubamusubirya bati: “Mutukasungana n’omulume mughuma, amatubwira ati, ‘Musube eyiri omwami oyulyabatuma, mumubwire muti, “Yehova ati: ‘Ni Kundi e Israeli siyiri oMungu kyo kiryaleka iwatuma abandu uti bayabulaye Baali-zebubu, omungu we Ekroni? Busana n’ekyo, siwendilua omo ngyingo eyo ughotsereko, kundi ukendihola.’”’”
7 Neryo omwami mwababulya ati: “Omulume oyulyasyahindana nenyu n’eribabwira ebinywa ebyo alue asosire ati?”
8 Mubamusubirya bati: “Alue ambite olukimba lw’obweya, inianahangire n’omukaba w’engobi omo mbindi yiwe.” Omwami mwalw’iniabugha ati: “Oyo ni Eliya Omutishbi.”
9 Neryo omwami mwatuma omukulu mughuma w’abasuda 50 haghuma n’abasuda biwe 50 ayende Eliya. Eliya abya inianikere oko singyi y’ekitwa. Omukulu oyo mwahetukira eyiri Eliya, amamubwira ati: “Iwe mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, omwami ati, ‘Undaghale.’”
10 Aliwe Eliya mwasubirya omukulu w’abasuda 50 oyo ati: “Namabya iniri mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, omuliro alue elubula n’erikutimya, iwe n’abasuda baghu 50.” Neryo omuliro mwalua elubula, amamutimya, iye n’abasuda biwe 50.
11 Neryo omwami mwatumayo oghundi mukulu w’abasuda 50 haghuma n’abasuda biwe 50. Omukulu oyo mwayabwira Eliya ati: “Iwe mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, omwami ati, ‘Undaghale luba.’”
12 Aliwe Eliya mwamusubirya ati: “Namabya iniri mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, omuliro alue elubula n’erikutimya, iwe n’abasuda baghu 50.” Neryo omuliro w’oMungu mwalua elubula, amamutimya, iye n’abasuda biwe 50.
13 Neryo omwami mwatumayo omukulu w’akasatu w’abasuda 50 haghuma n’abasuda biwe 50. Omukulu w’abasuda oyo mwaya eyiri Eliya. Aliwe, mwabya abihika embere siwe, amakukama embere sya Eliya n’erimulemba-lemba ati amukanganaye olukogho. Mwabwira Eliya ati: “Kisi, mundu w’oMungu w’ekwenene, ulangire engebe yaghe n’engebe* y’abaghombe baghu 50 aba mo y’omughaso.
14 Omuliro abirilua elubula ngendo ibiri n’eritimya abakulu b’abasuda 50 abalyanitangirira n’eritimya ebikuto byabo by’abasuda 50. Kisi, ulangire engebe* yaghe mo y’omughaso.”
15 Neryo omumalaika wa Yehova mwabwira Eliya ati: “Ndaghala haghuma naye. Isiwamusagha.” Neryo Eliya mwandaghala haghuma naye, amaya eyiri omwami.
16 Eliya mwabwira omwami ati: “Yehova ati: ‘Mukatuma abandu uti bayabulaye Baali-zebubu, omungu we Ekroni. Ulyakola ekyo kundi e Israeli siyiri oMungu? Busanaki siwetabulya oMungu we Israeli? Busana n’ekyo, siwendilua omo ngyingo eyo ughotsereko, kundi ukendihola.’”
17 Neryo Ahazia mwahola, ngoko Yehova anabwira Eliya. Neryo kundi Ahazia mwatabuta omwana w’obulume, Yehoramu* mwabya mwami omo mwanya wiwe. Mwabya mwami omo mwaka w’akabiri w’obutabali bwa Yehoramu, mughala wa Yehoshafati, omwami we Yuda.
