21 ¹Eyi akyi no, Yesreelni Nabot wɔ bobe turo bi wɔ Yesreel, Samaria hene Ahab ahemfi nkyɛn. ²Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Nabot se, “Fa wo bobe turo no ma me na menyɛ no nhaban turo, efisɛ ɛbɛn me fi. Mede bobe turo a eye sen eyi bɛma wo, anaasɛ sɛ wopɛ a, metua ne bo dwetɛ ama wo.”

³Nabot buaa Ahab se, “Yɛn Agya anim no, ɛrenyɛ da sɛ mede mʼagyanom agyapade bɛma wo!” ^a a v3 Yɛn Agya mmara ase no, abusua asase yɛ ahode a wɔde hwɛ so daa a wɔde fi awo ntoatoaso so kɔ awo ntoatoaso so, na ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔtɔn kɔ koraa; ɛnyɛ asoɔden nti na Nabot ampene, na mmom nokwaredi nti.

⁴Ahab kɔɔ fie a ne werɛ ahow na ne bo afuw, Yesreelni Nabot nsɛm a ɔkae no nti: “Meremfa mʼagyanom agyapade mma wo.” Ɔdaa ne mpa so, dan nʼani, na wampɛ sɛ odidi. ⁵Ne yere Yesebel bɛbisaa no se, “Adɛn nti na wo werɛ ahow saa ara a wompɛ sɛ wodidi?”

⁶Ɔbuaa no se, “Meka kyerɛɛ Yesreelni Nabot se, ‘Ma mentɔ wo bobe turo no, anaasɛ sɛ wopɛ a, mede foforo bɛsesa ama wo,’ nanso ɔkae se, ‘Meremfa me bobe turo no mma wo.’”

⁷Ne yere Yesebel kae se, “Saa na wudi hene wɔ Israel so ana? Sɔre, didi, na ma wʼani nnye! Mede Yesreelni Nabot bobe turo no bɛma wo.”

⁸Ɔkyerɛw nkrataa wɔ Ahab din mu, de ne nsɔwano sɔw ano, na ɔde kɔmaa mpanyimfo ne atitiriw a wɔne Nabot te ne kurow mu no. ⁹Ɔkyerɛw wɔ nkrataa no mu se, “Mommɔ mmuadadi ho dawuru, na momma Nabot ntena ɔman no anim. ¹⁰Momma nnipa bɔnefo baanu ntena nʼanim nni adanse ntia no se, ‘Woadome Onyankopɔn ne ɔhene.’ Afei momfa no mfi adi nsi no abo nkum no.”

¹¹Ne kurow mu mmarima, mpanyimfo ne atitiriw a wɔte hɔ no, yɛɛ pɛpɛɛpɛ sɛnea Yesebel kyerɛɛ wɔn wɔ nkrataa a ɔde kɔmaa wɔn no mu. ¹²Wɔbɔɔ mmuadadi ho dawuru, na wɔmaa Nabot tenaa ɔman no anim. ¹³Nnipa bɔnefo baanu bɛtenaa nʼanim, na wodii adanse tiaa Nabot wɔ ɔman no anim se, “Nabot adome Onyankopɔn ne ɔhene.” Afei wɔde no fii kurow no akyi, sii no abo kum no. ¹⁴Afei wɔde asɛm kɔmaa Yesebel se, “Wɔasi Nabot abo akum no.”

¹⁵Bere a Yesebel tee sɛ wɔasi Nabot abo akum no no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Ahab se, “Sɔre, kɔfa Yesreelni Nabot bobe turo a wampɛ sɛ ɔtɔn ma wo no. Nabot nni nkwa mu bio; wawu.”

¹⁶Bere a Ahab tee sɛ Nabot awu no, ɔsɔree sianee kɔɔ sɛ ɔrekɔfa Yesreelni Nabot bobe turo no.

¹⁷Afei yɛn Agya asɛm baa Tisbini Elia nkyɛn se:

¹⁸“Sɔre, sian kɔhyia Israel hene Ahab a ɔwɔ Samaria no. Ɔwɔ Nabot bobe turo no mu; wasian akɔ hɔ sɛ ɔrekɔfa. ¹⁹Ka kyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛɛ na yɛn Agya se: Woadi awu, na woafa nʼagyapade nso?’ Afei ka se, ‘Sɛɛ na yɛn Agya se: Baabi a akraman taforoo Nabot mogya no, ɛhɔ ara na wɔbɛtafere wo mogya, aane, wo de ankasa.’”

²⁰Ahab ka kyerɛɛ Elia se, “Woahu me, me tamfo!” Ɔbuaa no se, “Mahu wo, efisɛ wode wo ho atɔn sɛ woyɛ bɔne wɔ yɛn Agya ani so.”

²¹“Mede amanehunu bɛba wo so, na mɛsɛe wo, na mɛtwa ɔbarima biara a ɔyɛ Ahab dea wɔ Israel no afi hɔ, akoa ne nea ɔde ne ho nyinaa. ²²Mɛyɛ wo fi sɛ Nebat ba Yeroboam fi ne Ahia ba Baasa fi, efisɛ woahyɛ me abufuw na woama Israel ayɛ bɔne.” ²³Na Yesebel ho nso, yɛn Agya kae se, “Akraman bɛwe Yesebel wɔ Yesreel fasu ho. ²⁴Obiara a ɔyɛ Ahab dea a obewu wɔ kurow mu no, akraman na wɔbɛwe no, na obiara a obewu wɔ wuram no, wim nnomaa na wɔbɛwe no.”

²⁵Obi nni hɔ a ɔte sɛ Ahab a ɔde ne ho tɔn sɛ ɔbɛyɛ bɔne wɔ yɛn Agya anim, efisɛ ne yere Yesebel kaa no hyɛɛ no. ²⁶Ɔyɛɛ akyiwade kɛse, na ɔdii ahoni akyi sɛ Amorifo a yɛn Agya pam wɔn fii Israel anim no.

²⁷Bere a Ahab tee nsɛm yi no, ɔsunsuanee ne ntade, de atweaatam kataa ne ho, dii mmuada, daa atweaatam mu, na ɔnantew brɛoo a ne werɛ ahow.

²⁸Afei yɛn Agya asɛm baa Tisbini Elia nkyɛn se:

²⁹“Woahu sɛnea Ahab abrɛ ne ho ase wɔ mʼanim? Esiane sɛ wabrɛ ne ho ase wɔ mʼanim nti, meremfa amanehunu no mma ne nna mu; ne ba nna mu na mede bɛba ne fi so.”
