Tabaadi muiyilekie.
4 Binobino, Mesha nfumu a Moabe baadi mumunyi a mikooko, na baadi na kiubishi kia kufuta bana ba mikooko 100 000 na mikooko ilume 100 000 yabashi bakuule buaa bu kitadi kui nfumu a Isalele. 5 Nka Akabe kiafu, nfumu a Moabe batombokieele nfumu a Isalele. 6 Biabia Nfumu Yehorame nkutuuka mu Samadiya diadia efuku na nkubunga Isalele oso. 7 Aye nkutuma dingi mukiendi kui nfumu Yeoshafate a Yunda’shi: “Nfumu a Moabe bantombokiela. Wende nami mu kulua ngoshi na Moabe su?” Aye nkualula’shi: “Nende. Ne nka bu’be. Muilo wande winka bu muilo oobe. Nfualasa yande inka bu nfualasa yobe.” 8 Aye nkuipusha’shi: “Atuyila eshinda kinyi?” Yehorame nkualula’shi: “Atuyila eshinda dia mu kabaaka ka Edome.”
9 Akupu, nfumu a Isalele nkubanga luendo na nfumu a Yunda na nfumu a Edome. Kunyima kua’bo kutambuka munda mua mafuku musambobidi bendanga na kuifunya, ta kubaadi dingi mema bua basalayi na bua nyema ibaadi ayibalondo kumongo. 10 Nfumu a Isalele nkuakula’shi: “Bi masaku! Yehowa betanyina bano ba nfumu basatu penda bua kuibatuula mu maasa mua Moabe?” 11 Nyi Yeoshafate nkuipusha’shi: “Muno tamui mutemuki a Yehowa atudi balombene kuipusha Yehowa kukiila kuadi su?” Biabia umune a ku bafubi ba nfumu a Isalele nkualula’shi: “Mui Elisha muana a Shafate baadi apongoola mema ku maasa a Eliya.”* 12 Akupu Yeoshafate nkuakula’shi: “Yehowa akulaa kukiila kuadi.” Biabia nfumu a Isalele na Yeoshafate na nfumu a Edome nkuenda kuadi.
13 Elisha nkulungula nfumu a Isalele’shi: “Ne nobe muanda kinyi?* Enda kui batemuki ba nshobe na batemuki ba nyinobe.” Anka nfumu a Isalele nkumulungula’shi: “Nya Yehowa nyi muitanyishe bano ba nfumu basatu bua kuibatuula mu maasa a Moabe.” 14 Biabia Elisha nkuakula’shi: “Na bi Yehowa a biluilo anfubilaa* na muwa binyibinyi, su ta nkanemo kandi nako bua nfumu Yeoshafate a Yunda, ntshinadia sunga kukutala sunga kutala muanda oobe. 15 Binobino, fika na muntu ayimbaa lusese.”* Nka muntu ayimbaa lusese ki’abanga kuyimba, eyasa dia Yehowa dibafikile pe Elisha. 16 Aye nkuakula’shi: “Yehowa bakula bino’shi: ‘Bundula mikola mu dino ebanda,* 17 muanda Yehowa bakula bino’shi: “T’anukamono lupunga na t’anukamono mpeshi; anka dino ebanda adikaushibua na mema, na anukeatomo anue na bimunuanga bienu na ingi nyema yenu.”’ 18 Anka uno mmuanda upeela ku meso kua Yehowa, muanda akatuulu dingi Moabe mu maasa muenu. 19 Abitungu nubumbule kibundi kioso kinyingishibue na kibundi kioso kibuwa, nutshibe mutshi oso wibuwa, nushikie nsulo yoso ya mema, na abitungu nuluishe kipindi kioso kia nsenga kibuwa na mabue.”
20 Na ku namashika mu nsaa yabatuushaa mulambu wa ntete wa ku namashika, mema abafikile mususa umune dia ku Edome na nsenga nkuula na mema.
21 Bena Moabe babapushishe’shi ba nfumu babafiki mu kuibaluisha ngoshi, biabia abo nkubunga bana balume boso balombene kusemuna bina ngoshi* na abo nkuimana ku mukalo. 22 Pabaababuukile ku namashika buee, nguba baadi amunyika mu mema, na kui bena Moabe alua lupese, mema abaadi aamueneka amonga nka bu mase. 23 Abo nkuakula’shi: “Ano nyi mase, ba nfumu babeyipayishena ku lupete lua ngoshi binyibinyi. Biabia Moabe enda okapaule bintu!” 24 Pababatuelele mu kishalelo kia Isalele, bena Isalele babebuele na abo nkubanga kuipaa bena Moabe, bena Moabe nkuibasuuka. Babatuelele mu Moabe bendanga na kuipaa bena Moabe. 25 Abo nkubumbula bibundi, na muntu oso nkuasa ebue mu kipindi kioso kia nsenga kibuwa, abo nkuibiusha na mabue, abo nkushika nsulo yoso ya mema na nkutshiba mutshi oso wibuwa. Nfudiilo a bioso, nka penda mudimba wa mabue wa Kire-aresete nyi ubaadi ushale wimane, na bantu abelaa ndundo nkuiwifunyisha na nkuiubumbula.
26 Pabaadi nfumu a Moabe mumone’shi babamutshokola, batshile bantu 700 be na mpete ya ngoshi bua kuenda batadiile kui nfumu a Edome, anka tababaadi bobeshe. 27 Biabia aye nkuata muana aaye mbedi mulume badia kuikala bu nfumu pa mbalo yaye, nkumulambula bu mulambu wa kushiika kaalo ku mudimba. Na bantu nkufiitshila Isalele munda, biabia abo nkukatuka na nkualuka mu nsenga yabo.
