1 Koro Ben-Hadad ruodh Aram nochoko jolwenje duto. Koriwore gi ruodhi piero adek gariyo man-gi farese kod geche nodhi molworo Samaria kendo omonje. 2 Nooro joote ei dala ir Ahab ruodh Israel kawacho niya, “Ma e gima Ben-Hadad wacho: 3 ‘Fedha magi gi dhahabu magi gin maga kendo mondi mabeyo kod nyithindi gin maga.’ ”

4 To ruodh Israel nodwoke niya, “Mana kaka iwacho ruodha jaloch, An kaachiel gi mwanduna duto wan magi.”

5 Jootego noduogo kendo mowacho niya, “Ma e gima Ben-Hadad owacho: ‘Naoro mondo akaw dhahabu magi kod fedha magi kaachiel gi mondi gi nyithindi. 6 To kiny kar sa maka ma, abiro oro jodonga mondo omany odi mar ruoth kaachiel gi ut jodongi. Gibiro kawo gimoro amora mikwano kaka gima berni.’ ”

7 Ruodh Israel noluongo jodongo duto mag piny mowachonegi niya, “Neuru kaka ngʼatni dwaro chandruok! Kane odwaro dhahabu maga gi fedha maga kaachiel gi monda gi nyithinda ne ok atame.”

8 Jodongo kaachiel gi ji duto nodwoke kawacho niya, “Kik iwinje kata yie kik iyie gik modwaro.”

9 Kamano nodwoko joote mag Ben-Hadad niya, “Nyis ruodha ma jaloch kama, ‘Jatichni biro timo duto mane idwaro mokwongo, to dwaronini ok anyal.’ ” Negia gitero ni Ben-Hadad dwoko.

10 Eka Ben-Hadad nochako ooro ote machielo ni Ahab kowachone niya, “Mad nyiseche timna kata bedi ni en malit machalo nade, ka ok otieko Samaria pep molokore buru.”

11 Ruodh Israel nodwoke niya, “Nyise kama: ‘Ngʼat morwako lepe mag lweny ok onego go siboi ka ngʼat molonyo lepe mag lweny.’ ”

12 Ben-Hadad nowinjo oteno ka en kaachiel gi ruodhi ne metho e hembegi mi nochiko joge niya, “Ikreuru mondo umonjgi.” Omiyo negiikore mondo gimonj dalano maduongʼ.

13 To e kindeno janabi moro nobiro ir Ahab Ruodh Israel molando niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, ‘Donge ineno jolweny mangʼenygi? Abiro chiwe e lweti kawuono kendo ibiro ngʼeyo ni An e Jehova Nyasaye.’ ”

14 To Ahab nopenjo niya, “To en ngʼatno mabiro timo mano?”

To janabi nodwoke niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: ‘Rowere ma jolweny mag jotend lweny mar gwenge ema biro timo mani.’ ”

Nopenjo niya, “En ngʼa mabiro chako lweny?”

To janabi nodwoke niya, “In ema ibiro timo kamano.”

15 Kamano Ahab nochiko rowere ma jotend lweny mag gwenge maromo ji mia ariyo gi piero adek gariyo. Eka nochoko jo-Israel mamoko maromo ji alufu abiriyo koriwore. 16 Negichako wuoth odiechiengʼ tir ka Ben-Hadad kod ruodhi piero adek gariyo moriwore kode ne nitie e hema metho. 17 Rowere ma jotend lweny mag gwenge nodhi mokwongo.

Koro Ben-Hadad nooro jombetre mane odwogone wach kama, “Jomoko biro kowuok Samaria.”

18 Nodwoko kama, “Ka gibiro gi kwe, makgiuru ka gingima; to ka gibiro ni lweny, to bende makgiuru ka gingima.”

19 Rowere ma jotend lweny mag gwenge nowuok e dala ka jolweny luwo bangʼ-gi, 20 kendo moro ma moro nonego jadhape. Gikanyono jo-Aram noringo ka jo-Israel lawogi. To Ben-Hadad ruodh jo-Aram notony koidho farase kod joidh faresene mamoko. 21 Ruodh Israel nolawogi kendo nohinyo jo-farese kod jo-geche mi nonego jo-Aram mangʼeny.

22 Bangʼe janabi nobiro ir ruodh Israel monyise niya, “Koro jiw jolweny magi mondo ine gima onego itim nimar ruodh Aram biro monji kendo e chwiri mabiro.”

23 E kindego jodong ruoth nongʼado rieko ni ruodh Aram nongʼadone rieko kagiwachone niya, “nyisechegi gin nyiseche gode, mano emomiyo ne gin gi teko moloyowa; to ka wakedo kodgi e pewe to adier wabiro bedo matek maloyogi. 24 To tim kama: Gol ruodhi duto e telo ni lweny kendo wilgi gi jotelo mamoko. 25 Bende nyaka ichok jolweny marom gi mago mane wawito farese kar farese mane walalo kod geche kar geche mane walalo eka mondo waked gi Israel e pewe. Eka adier wanabed matek moloyogi.” Noyie kodgi motimo kaka owinjore.

26 E chwiri maluwe Ben-Hadad nochoko jo-Aram modhi Afek mondo oked gi Israel. 27 Kane jo-Israel bende nochoki momigi gige konyruok, ne giwuok mondo girom kodgi. Jo-Israel nogoyo kambi momanyore kodgi machalo gi kweth ariyo mag diek, ka jo-Aram to nokwako pewe.

28 Ngʼat Nyasaye nobiro monyiso ruodh Israel niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, nikech jo-Aram paro ni Jehova Nyasaye en nyasach gode to ok nyasach holni, abiro chiwo jolweny mangʼenygi e lweti kendo ibiro ngʼeyo ni an Jehova Nyasaye.”

29 Kuom ndalo abiriyo negigoyo kambi ka gimanyore, kendo e odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo lweny norado. Jo-Israel nonego jolwenj Aram ma jotelo maromo alufu mia achiel odiechiengno. 30 Joma nodongʼ kuomgi notony modhi Afek kama ohinga nomukore monego ji alufu piero ariyo gabiriyo. To Ben-Hadad noringo modhi e dala maduongʼ mopondo ei ot maiye.

31 Jodonge nowachone niya, “Ne, wasewinjo ni ruodhi mag jo-Israel ngʼwon. Yie wadhi ir ruodh Israel ka watweyo pien gugru e nungowa kendo ka watweyo tonde e wiwa. Dipo ka okechi.”

32 Negidhi ir ruodh Israel ka girwako lep pien gugru e nungogi kendo gitweyo tonde wigi mi giwachone niya, “Jatichni Ben-Hadad wacho niya, Yie iweya abed mangima.”

Eka ruoth nodwoko niya, “Pod ongima? En owadwa.”

33 Jogo nokaw wachno kaka ranyisi maber kendo negikawo wachno piyo piyo ma giwacho niya, “Ee, owadu Ben-Hadad!”

Ruoth nowachonigi niya, “Dhiuru mondo uome.” Kane Ben-Hadad osewuok oko, Ahab noluongo mondo oidh gache.

34 Ben-Hadad noyie mowachone niya, “Abiro dwoko mier mane wuonwa okawo kuom wuonu.” Inyalo keto chirni magu uwuon Damaski mana kaka wuonwa notimo Samaria.

Ahab nodwoke niya, “Kuom winjruok ma wabiro timo abiro weyi mondo idhi.” Kuom mano notimo kode winjruok moweye odhi.

35 Kuom wach Jehova Nyasaye achiel kuom yawuot jonabi nowacho ni wadgi niya, “Goya gi gir lwenji mitingʼo,” to ngʼatno notamore.

36 Kamano janabi nowacho niya, “Nikech ok isewinjo dwond Jehova Nyasaye, mapiyo piyo kiwuok ka, to sibuor biro negi.” Kendo bangʼ ka ngʼatno nosea, sibuor noyude monege.

37 Janabino noyudo ngʼat machielo mowachone niya, “Kiyie to goya.” Kamano ngʼatno nogoye mohinye. 38 Eka janabino nodhi mochungʼ e bath yo korito ruoth. Noumo wangʼe gi kilemba mar wiye mondo kik fweny ni en ngʼa. 39 Kane ruoth kadho kanyo janabi noluonge mowachone niya, “Jatichni nodhi e chuny lweny, kendo ngʼato nobiro ira gi misumba momaki mowachona ni, ‘Rit ngʼatni kolal to ngimani biro chulo ngimane kata ibiro chulo fedha maromo kilo piero adek gangʼwen.’ 40 Kane jatijno odich ka gi kacha ngʼatno nolal.”

Ruodh Israel nodwoke niya, “Mano e bura mongʼadni nikech isewache iwuon.”

41 Eka janabi nogolo kilemba mane ogengʼogo wangʼe mi ruodh jo-Israel nofwenye kaka achiel kuom jonabi. 42 Nowacho ni ruoth niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho: ‘Iseweyo ngʼat mane awacho ni nyaka tho odhi thuolo. Kuom mano inichul ngimane gi ngimani kendo jogi kuom joge.’ ” 43 Ruodh Israel nodhi e ode mar ruoth Samaria ka chunye orumo kendo ka iye owangʼ kod mirima.
