Tshimo ya Nabote ya morara
1Hoba tsena di fete, ha etsahala tsena: Nabote wa Mojesereele o ne a ena le tshimo ya morara Jesereele, e le haufi le ntlo ya bokgosi ya Akabe, kgosi ya Samaria. 2Akabe a re ho Nabote: “Kaha tshimo ya hao ya morara e le haufi le ntlo ya ka, mphe yona, ke tle ke leme meroho ho yona. Ke tla o nea e mobu o motle ho feta eo; kapa haeba o rata, ke tla e reka ka tjhelete e e lokelang.”
3Empa Nabote a re ho Akabe: “Morena a mpe a nthuse, ke se ke ka o nea lefa la bo-ntate.”
4Akabe a kgutlela lapeng ha hae, pelo ya hae e tetebetse, a hloname, ka lebaka la puo eo Nabote wa Mojesereele a e buileng ho yena, hobane o ne a ile a re: “Nke ke ka o nea lefa la bo-ntate.” A ya paqama betheng ya hae, a shebile leboteng, a ikgurumetsa, a hana le ho ja.
5Empa mosadi wa hae, Jesabele, a kena kamoo a leng kateng, a re ho yena: “Ke ka baka lang o hlonameng hakaale, o hanang le ho ja?”
6Akabe a re ho yena: “Ke hobane ke ile ka bua le Nabote wa Mojesereele, ka re ho yena: ‘Nthekisetse tshimo ya hao ka tjhelete; kapa haeba o rata, ke tla o nea tshimo e nngwe ya morara bakeng sa yona.’ Yena a nkaraba, a re: ‘Nke ke ka o nea tshimo ya ka ya morara.’ ”
7Jesabele, mosadi wa hae, a re ho yena: “Na hase wena ya busang naha ya Iseraele? Tsoha, o je, o nyakalle. Ke tla o nea tshimo eo ya morara ya Nabote wa Mojesereele.”
8Yaba Jesabele o ngola mangolo lebitsong la Akabe, a ba a a hatisa ka letshwao la hae. Mangolo ana a a romela ho baholo le mahosana a ahileng le Nabote motseng oo wa habo.
9Mangolong ao o ne a ngotse, a itse: “Phatlalatsang tsatsi la ho itima dijo, mme hara setjhaba sohle Nabote a bewe setulong se ka sehloohong. 10Malebana le yena le bee banna ba babedi, ba kgopo, ba tle ba mo qose, ba re: ‘Wena, Nabote, o ile wa nyefola Modimo le kgosi!’ Jwale lona le mo hulanyetse kantle ho motse, le mo tlepetse ka majwe a be a shwe.”
11Banna ba motse oo wa habo Nabote, e leng baholo le mahosana, bao e neng e le baahi ba motse oo, ba phetha taelo eo Jesabele a neng a ba rometse yona, jwalokaha e ne e ngotswe mangolong ao a neng a ba rometse wona. 12Ba fela ba phatlalatsa letsatsi la ho itima dijo, mme Nabote a bewa setulong se ka sehloohong hara setjhaba. 13Jwale banna ba babedi, ba kgopo, ba fihla ba dula kapele ho yena, ba mo qosa kapele ho setjhaba, ba re: “Nabote o ile a nyefola Modimo le kgosi!” Yaba ba hulanyetsa Nabote kantle ho motse, ba mo tlepetsa ka majwe, a ba a shwa. 14Ba romela molaetsa ho Jesabele, ba re: “Nabote o tlepeditswe ka majwe, o shwele!”
15Ha Jesabele a utlwa hore Nabote o tlepeditswe ka majwe, mme o shwele, a re ho Akabe: “Tsoha, o inkele tshimo ya morara ya Nabote wa Mojesereele, eo a ileng a hana ho o rekisetsa yona ka tjhelete, hobane Nabote e se e le mofu.” 16Ha Akabe a utlwa hore Nabote o shwele, a ema, a theohela tshimong ya morara ya Nabote wa Mojesereele, a inkela yona.
Elia o bolella Akabe kahlolo ya hae
17Jwale lentswe la Morena la fihla ho Elia wa Tishebe, la re: 18“Ema, o theohele Samaria ho Akabe, kgosi ya Iseraele. O tshimong ya morara ya Nabote, moo a theohetseng teng ho ya inkela yona. 19O tle o fihle o re ho yena: ‘Morena o bua tjena: Na o fela o bolaile Nabote, o bile o inketse tshimo ya hae?’ O boele o re ho yena: ‘Morena o bua tjena: Hona moo, moo dintja di ileng tsa qaphela madi a Nabote hona teng, le wena madi a hao di tla a qaphela hona teng.’ ”
20Akabe a re ho Elia: “Wa mphumana, wena sera sa ka!”
Elia a re: “E, ke o fumane, hobane o ineeletse ho etsa bobe moo Morena a ntseng a o bona. 21Ke tla o dihela koduwa, ke fedise ditloholo tsa hao. Ke tla bolaya ba batona bohle ba lelapa la Akabe, naheng ya Iseraele; e ka ba makgoba kapa ba lokolohileng. 22Lelapa la hao ke tla le etsa jwalokaha ke ne ke etse lelapa la Jeroboame, mora wa Nebate, le jwalokaha ke ne ke etse lelapa la Basha, mora wa Ahiya, hobane o mphepheditse hoo ke bileng ke o halefetseng; o entse hore Baiseraele ba sitelwe Morena.”
23Morena a bua le ka Jesebele, a re: “Dintja di tla jella setopo sa Jesabele kahara motse wa Jesereele. 24Mang kapa mang wa lelapa la Akabe ya shwelang motseng, o tla jewa ke dintja, mme ya shwelang naheng o tla jewa ke dinonyana tse fofang.”
25Ha ho le ya mong ya kileng a ineella ho etsa bobe jwaloka Akabe. O ne a kgothaletswa ke Jesabele, mosadi wa hae. 26A etsa manyala ka ho latela medingwana ya bohata, le ka ho etsa tsohle tse neng di etswa ke Baamore, bao Morena a neng a ba leleke kapele ho bana ba Iseraele.
Kahlolo ya Akabe e a thisiswa
27Yare ha Akabe a utlwa mantswe ana, a hahola diaparo tsa hae, a apara tse mahwashe, a itima dijo, a robala a ntse a apere tse mahwashe, a tsamaya a siame.
28Lentswe la Morena la fihla ho Elia wa Tishebe, la re: 29“Na o bona kamoo Akabe a ikokobeleditseng nna kateng? Kahobane a ikokobeleditse nna, koduwa ena e ke ke ya eba teng mehleng ya hae; ke tla e dihela hodima lelapa la Akabe mehleng ya mora wa hae.”
