19 ¹Ahab ka nneɛma a Elia ayɛ nyinaa kyerɛɛ Yesebel, ne sɛnea ɔde afoa akunkum adiyifo no nyinaa. ²Yesebel somaa ɔbɔfo kɔɔ Elia nkyɛn se, “Sɛ ɔkyena saa bere yi mʼanyɛ wo nkwa sɛ adiyifo no mu baako de a, anyame nyɛ me saa, na wɔnyɛ me bɔne mmoro so mpo.”

³Ehu nti, Elia sɔree guanee kogyee ne nkwa, duu Beer-Seba a ɛwɔ Yuda, na ɔgyaw ne somfo wɔ hɔ. ⁴Ɔtoaa so nantew da koro kɔɔ sare so, kɔtenaa kwaedua bi a ɛno nko ara si hɔ ase, na ɔsrɛe sɛ owu. “Ɛdɔɔso, mʼAgya,” ɔkae. “Fa me nkwa; meye nsen mʼagyanom.”

⁵Afei ɔdaa kwaedua no ase, na nna kɔɔ no. Ɔbɔfo bi de ne nsa kaa no, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɔre na didi.”

⁶Ɔhwɛe, na ɔhunuu sɛ paanoo bi a wɔato wɔ abo a ɛhyehye so ne nsu toa bi si ne tiri ho. Ɔdidii, nomee, na ɔsan dae bio. ⁷Yɛn Agya bɔfo no san baa ne mprenu so, de ne nsa kaa no, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɔre na didi—efisɛ akwantu no ware ma wo.”

⁸Enti ɔsɔree, didii, nomee, na aduan no maa no ahoɔden, na ɔnantew nnafua aduanan ne anadwo aduanan kɔɔ Horeb, yɛn Agya bepɔ no so.

Agya no Nne Bɔkɔɔ

⁹Ɔduu hɔ no, ɔkɔɔ ɔbodan bi mu kɔdaa hɔ. Afei yɛn Agya asɛm baa ne nkyɛn se, “Dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha, Elia?”

¹⁰Ɔbuae se, “Mʼani abere yiye ama ɔsoro asraafo Agya no. Israel apa wʼapam no, wɔabubu wʼafɔremuka agu, na wɔde afoa akunkum wʼadiyifo. Me nko ara na mekae, na afei wɔrehwehwɛ me nkwa sɛ wɔbɛgye.”

¹¹Yɛn Agya kae se, “Fi adi kogyina bepɔ no so wɔ mʼanim; merebɛtwam.” Mframa kɛse a ano yɛ den bi bɔ tetew mmepɔ no mu, na ɛbubuu abotan wɔ yɛn Agya anim, nanso na ɔnni mframa no mu. Mframa no akyi, asasewosow bae, nanso na ɔnni asasewosow no mu.

¹²Asasewosow no akyi, ogya bae, nanso na yɛn Agya nni ogya no mu. Ogya no akyi, nne bɔkɔɔ bi a ɛte sɛ asomusɛm bae.

¹³Elia tee no no, ɔde ne ntama kataa nʼanim, fii adi kogyinaa ɔbodan no ano. Nne bi baa ne nkyɛn se, “Dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha, Elia?”

¹⁴Ɔbuae se, “Mʼani abere yiye ama ɔsoro asraafo Agya no. Israelfo apa wʼapam no, wɔabubu wʼafɔremuka agu, na wɔde afoa akunkum wʼadiyifo. Me nko ara na mekae, na afei wɔrehwehwɛ me nkwa sɛ wɔbɛgye.”

¹⁵Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa ɛkwan a wofaa so baa no so san kɔ Damasko sare so. Sɛ woduru hɔ a, sra Hasael ngo na ɔnyɛ Aram hene. ¹⁶Afei nso sra Nimsi ba Yehu ngo na ɔnyɛ Israel hene, na sra Safat ba Elisa a ofi Abel-Mehola no ngo na ɔnyɛ odiyifo nsi wʼanan mu. ¹⁷Obiara a obeguan afi Hasael afoa ano no, Yehu bekum no; na obiara a obeguan afi Yehu afoa ano no, Elisa bekum no. ¹⁸Nanso mɛma nnipa 7,000 aka wɔ Israel—nkotodwe a ɛnkotoo Baal da, ne ano a ɛmfew no da.”

Agya no Frɛ Elisa

¹⁹Enti Elia fii hɔ kohuu Safat ba Elisa sɛ ɔde anantwi nhyehyɛe dumienu refuntum asase, na ɔno ankasa na ɔka nhyehyɛe a ɛto so dumienu no. Elia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔtow ne ntama guu ne so. ²⁰Elisa gyaw anantwi no, tuu mmirika dii Elia akyi, na ɔkae se, “Ma menkɔfew mʼagya ne me na ano nkra wɔn, na afei mɛdi wʼakyi.” “San kɔ,” Elia buae. “Dɛn na mayɛ wo?”

²¹Enti Elisa san kɔe, kɔfaa ne anantwi nhyehyɛe no kum wɔn. Ɔde nnwinnade a ɔde funtum asase no yɛɛ nnyansin, noaa nam no, de maa nkurɔfo no, na wɔdii. Afei ɔdii Elia akyi, na ɔsom no.
