18 ¹Yehoshafati yari atunze amatungo menshi n’iteka ryinshi, kandi yaifatanije na Ahabu mu buramukazi. ²Haciye imyaka, aramanuka aja kwa Ahabu i Samariya, aho Ahabu yamubagiye intama n’inka nyinshi, we n’abantu bari kumwe nawe, amuhimiriza ngo bateze Ramoti-Gileyadi. ³Ahabu umwami wa Isirayeli abaza Yehoshafati umwami wa Yuda ati: “Woja hamwe nanje i Ramoti-Gileyadi?” Aramwishura ati: “Ndi nkawe, abantu banje ni nk’abawe; turafatanije mu ntambara.”

⁴Ariko Yehoshafati abwira umwami wa Isirayeli ati: “Banza urondere ijambo rya Data wa twese.”

⁵Nuko umwami wa Isirayeli akoranya abahanuzi, abantu amajana ane, arababaza ati: “Twoja kurwana i Ramoti-Gileyadi, canke twigumire?” Bati: “Duga, kuko Imana izoyishira mu minwe y’umwami.”

⁶Ariko Yehoshafati ati: “Mbega nta muhanuzi wa Data wa twese akiriho ng’aha twobaza?”

⁷Umwami wa Isirayeli abwira Yehoshafati ati: “Haracariho umuntu umwe twobaza Data wa twese biciye kuri we, ariko ndamwanka, kuko atigera ampanurira iciza, iteka ampanurira ikibi. Ni Mikaya mwene Imula.” Yehoshafati arishura ati: “Ntiwivuge gutyo wa mwami we.”

⁸Nuko umwami wa Isirayeli ahamagara umukozi umwe ati: “Zana Mikaya mwene Imula vuba.”

⁹Umwami wa Isirayeli na Yehoshafati umwami wa Yuda bicara umwe wese ku ntebe yiwe y’ubwami, bambaye impuzu z’ubwami, bari kw’ikubiro ry’imbuto ku muryango w’irembo rya Samariya, abahanuzi bose bariko barahanura imbere yabo. ¹⁰Zedekiya mwene Kenaana yari yakoze amahembe y’icuma ati: “Imana ivuga iti: ‘Aya ni yo uzotera Abanyarameyani, uheze ubarandurane.’”

¹¹Abahanuzi bose bahanura ukwo nyene, bati: “Duga i Ramoti-Gileyadi utsinde; Data wa twese azoyishira mu minwe y’umwami.”

¹²Intumwa yarungitswe kujana Mikaya imubwira iti: “Amajambo y’abahanuzi yose araremesha umwami. None iryawe nyabuna ribe nk’iryabo, uvuge iciza.”

¹³Ariko Mikaya ati: “Nk’uko Data wa twese ariho, nzovuga gusa ivyo Dawe avuga.”

¹⁴Ashitse, umwami aramubaza ati: “Mikaya, twoja kurwana i Ramoti-Gileyadi, canke twigumire?” Ati: “Duga mutsinde; bazoshirwa mu minwe yanyu.”

¹⁵Ariko umwami aramubwira ati: “Kangahe nkwiyamiriza ngo umbwire gusa ukuri mw’izina rya Data wa twese?”

¹⁶Mikaya ati: “Nabonye Abisirayeli bose basanzaye mu misozi, nk’intama zitagira umwungere. Maze Data wa twese ati: ‘Nta shebuja bafise; umwe wese nasubire iwe amahoro.’”

¹⁷Umwami wa Isirayeli abwira Yehoshafati ati: “None sinakubwiye yuko atonampanurira iciza, ko yompanurira ikibi gusa?”

¹⁸Mikaya ati: “None rero numva ijambo rya Data wa twese: Nabonye Data wa twese yicaye ku ntebe yiwe y’ubwami, ingabo zose zo mw’ijuru zihagaze iburyo n’ibubamfu bwiwe.

¹⁹Maze Data wa twese ati: ‘Ni nde azoshuka Ahabu umwami wa Isirayeli ngo aduge aguye i Ramoti-Gileyadi?’ Umwe avuga rimwe, uwundi irindi.

²⁰Nuko mpwemu araza imbere, ahagarara imbere ya Data wa twese, ati: ‘Jewe ndamushuka.’ Data wa twese aramubaza ati: ‘Ute?’

²¹Ati: ‘Nzogenda mbe mpwemu w’ikinyoma mu kanwa k’abahanuzi biwe bose.’ Maze Data wa twese ati: ‘Uzomushuka kandi uzomunesha. Genda ugire gutyo.’

²²None rero, Data wa twese yashize mpwemu w’ikinyoma mu kanwa k’aba bahanuzi bawe, kandi Data wa twese yakuvugiye ivyago.”

²³Nuko Zedekiya mwene Kenaana aregera, akubita Mikaya urushi ku rutama ati: “Ni iyihe nzira Mpwemu w’Imana yaciyemwo avuye kuri jewe ngo akuvugishe?”

²⁴Mikaya ati: “Uzovyibonera kuri uwo musi niwinjira mu cumba co hagati nyomba.”

²⁵Umwami wa Isirayeli ati: “Fata Mikaya umusubize kuri Amoni umutware w’igisagara no kuri Yowashi umwana w’umwami, ²⁶uvuge uti: ‘Umwami avuga ati: Shira uyu muntu mw’ibohero, umuhe umukate n’amazi make gusa, gushika nagarutse amahoro.’”

²⁷Mikaya ati: “Nugaruka amahoro, Data wa twese nta co yavuze biciye kuri jewe.” Hanyuma ati: “Numva mwe bantu mwese!”

Ahabu aragwa nk’uko Data yari yabivuze

²⁸Nuko umwami wa Isirayeli na Yehoshafati umwami wa Yuda baduga i Ramoti-Gileyadi. ²⁹Umwami wa Isirayeli abwira Yehoshafati ati: “Nzokwihisha nje mu ntambara, ariko wewe wambare impuzu zawe z’ubwami.” Nuko umwami wa Isirayeli yihisha, maze baja mu ntambara. ³⁰Umwami wa Aramu yari yategetse abatware b’amakariya yiwe ati: “Ntimurwanye n’umwe, mutoyi canke munini, atari umwami wa Isirayeli gusa.”

³¹Abatware b’amakariya babonye Yehoshafati, baravuga bati: “Uwo ni umwami wa Isirayeli,” baca bamugana ngo bamurwanye. Ariko Yehoshafati arasemerera, maze Data wa twese aramutabara, abakura kuri we. ³²Abatware b’amakariya babonye ko atari umwami wa Isirayeli, baca bareka kumukurikira. ³³Umuntu rumwe akurura umuheto wiwe atagamije, arasa umwami wa Isirayeli, amutera hagati y’uruziga rw’ibirwanisho vyiwe. Abwira uwatwara umukogote wiwe ati: “Hindukira unkure mu ntambara, kuko nkomeretse.” ³⁴Intambara iramara umusi wose. Umwami wa Isirayeli ahagarikwa mu ikariya ryiwe arabaye imbere y’Abanyarameyani gushika ku mugoroba, maze apfa izuba ritarenga.
