Context
17Basi mfalme alikuwa amemweka yule afisa ambaye mfalme alikuwa anauegemea mkono wake awe msimamizi wa lango. Nao watu wakamkanyaga walipoingia langoni, naye akafa, kama vile mtu wa Mungu alivyokuwa ametangulia kusema wakati mfalme alipofika nyumbani kwake. 18Ikatokea kama vile mtu wa Mungu alivyokuwa amemwambia mfalme: “Wakati kama huu kesho, kipimo kimoja cha unga mzuri kitauzwa kwa shekeli moja ya fedha, na vibaba viwili vya shayiri kwa shekeli moja ya fedha katika lango la Samaria.” 19Yule afisa alikuwa amemwambia yule mtu wa Mungu, “Tazama, hata kama Bwana atafungua madirisha ya mbinguni, je, jambo hili litawezekana?” Naye yule mtu wa Mungu alikuwa amemjibu, “Utaona kwa macho yako mwenyewe, lakini wewe hutakula chochote kati ya hivyo!” 20Ndivyo hasa ilivyotokea kwake, kwa kuwa watu walimkanyaga langoni, naye akafa.
