7 Abisirayeli bakora ibibi mu maso ya Yehova, bibagirwa Yehova Imana yabo,+ bakorera Bayali+ n’inkingi zera z’ibiti.+

6 Abisirayeli bongera gukora ibibi mu maso ya Yehova,+ basenga Bayali+ n’ibishushanyo bya Ashitoreti,+ n’imana z’i Siriya,+ imana z’i Sidoni,+ imana z’i Mowabu,+ imana z’Abamoni+ n’imana z’Abafilisitiya.+ Nuko Abisirayeli bata Yehova bareka kumukorera,+

18 Eliya aramusubiza ati “si jye wateje ibyago+ Isirayeli, ahubwo ni wowe n’inzu ya so,+ kuko mwaretse amategeko ya Yehova+ mugakurikira Bayali.+

2 Ahubwo yagendeye mu nzira z’abami ba Isirayeli,+ acura ibishushanyo biyagijwe+ bya Bayali.+

23 Wabasha ute kuvuga uti ‘sinihumanyije.+ Sinigeze nkurikira Bayali’?+ Reba inzira yawe yo mu kibaya,+ uzirikane ibyo wakoze. Wari umeze nk’ingamiya y’ingore inyaruka, yiruka ikubita hirya no hino mu nzira zayo itazi iyo ijya.

13 Nzamuryoza+ iminsi yose yamaze yosereza ibishushanyo bya Bayali+ ibitambo,+ ubwo yirimbishishaga impeta n’ibindi bintu by’umurimbo,+ agakomeza gukurikira abakunzi be+ maze akanyibagirwa,’+ ni ko Yehova avuga.
