4 And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Bethel, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.
4 Ikawa, mfalme Yeroboamu alipoyasikia maneno ya yule mtu wa Mungu, alipopiga kelele juu ya madhabahu huko Betheli, alinyosha mkono wake pale madhabahuni, akasema, Mkamateni. Basi ule mkono wake aliounyosha ukakatika, wala hakuweza kuurudisha kwake tena.
