2 Kings 10
1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. So Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria to the officials of Jezreel, to the elders, and to the guardians of the sons of Ahab, saying:
Ahab ni, Samaria vah, capa 70 touh a tawn. Jehu ni Samaria vah, Jezreel ka uk e kacuenaw hoi Ahab capanaw kakawkkungnaw koevah,
2 “When this letter arrives, since your master’s sons are with you and you have chariots and horses, a fortified city and weaponry,
Hete ca heh nangmouh koe a pha tahma vah na bawipa e capa nangmouh koe kaawm e patetlah rangleng hoi, marang kalup e kho senehmaica hai na tawn awh.
3 select the best and most worthy son of your master, set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.”
Na bawipa e a capanaw thung dawk kahawi poung e kakuep poung e hah rawi awh nateh, a na pa e bawitungkhung dawk tahung sak awh. Na bawipa imthungkhu, ka tuk e taran hah tuk khai awh telah ca a patawn.
4 But they were terrified and reasoned, “If two kings could not stand against him, how can we?”
Ahnimouh ni a takipoung teh, khenhaw! siangpahrang kahni touh ni hai a khang thai awh hoeh e doeh, maimouh ni bangtelavai khang thai awh vaw telah ati awh.
5 So the palace administrator, the overseer of the city, the elders, and the guardians sent a message to Jehu: “We are your servants, and we will do whatever you say. We will not make anyone king. Do whatever is good in your sight.”
Siangpahrang imthungkhu dawk e kahrawikung hoi, khopui kaukkung hoi camonaw kakhenkungnaw ni, Jehu koe vah na san ka tho awh, sak hane kaawm e naw pueng teh, ka sak awh han. Apihai siangpahrang lah ka rawi mahoeh. Nang ni ahawi na tie patetlah hoi sak lawih telah tami a patoun.
6 Then Jehu wrote them a second letter and said: “If you are on my side, and if you will obey me, then bring the heads of your master’s sons to me at Jezreel by this time tomorrow.” Now the sons of the king, seventy in all, were being brought up by the leading men of the city.
Ahnimouh koe, kai koe lah na kambawng awh boilah, kaie kâ na ngai awh hane pawiteh, na bawipa hoi a lû hah tangtho het tuektue a pha hoehnahlan, Jezreel kho kai koevah thokhai awh telah ca bout a patawn. Siangpahrang capanaw teh 70 touh a pha awh. Kho thung e kalentoenaw ahnimouh koe ao awh.
7 And when the letter arrived, they took the sons of the king and slaughtered all seventy of them. They put their heads in baskets and sent them to Jehu at Jezreel.
Ca patawn e a hmu awh teh, telah doeh. Siangpahrang e a capanaw hah a man awh teh 70 touh, abuemlah hoi a thei awh, a lûnaw hah tangthung dawk a rasoup awh teh, Jezreel kho vah ahnimouh koe a patawn awh.
8 When the messenger arrived, he told Jehu, “They have brought the heads of the sons of the king.” And Jehu ordered, “Pile them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until morning.”
Hahoi laicei a tho teh, siangpahrang capanaw e lû hah a la awh telah a dei. Ahnimouh ni kalupnae longkha kâen nah koevah, hmuen kahni touh lah a pung awh tangtho totouh awm seh atipouh.
9 The next morning, Jehu went out and stood before all the people and said, “You are innocent. It was I who conspired against my master and killed him. But who killed all these?
Atangtho hettelah doeh toe. A tâco teh taminaw pueng koe tamikalan doeh khenhaw! ka bawipa teh ka youk teh ka thei ka tang toe. Telah pawiteh, hetnaw pueng he apinimaw a thei vaw.
10 Know, then, that not a word the LORD has spoken against the house of Ahab will fail, for the LORD has done what He promised through His servant Elijah.”
BAWIPA ni Ahab imthungkhu kong a dei e, BAWIPA lawk nâtuek hai ayawmlah bawt boi mahoeh tie hah panuek awh.
11 So Jehu killed everyone in Jezreel who remained of the house of Ahab, as well as all his great men and close friends and priests, leaving him without a single survivor.
Hot patetlah Jehu ni Jezreel kho vah, Ahab imthungkhu kaawm e naw hoi a tami kalentoenaw hoi a vaihmanaw pueng hoi buet touh hai hlung laipalah koung a thei awh.
12 Then Jehu set out toward Samaria. At Beth-eked of the Shepherds,
Hahoi a thaw teh, a tâcotakhai awh teh, Samaria lah a cei awh. Lam vah tukhoumnaw e hmuen Betheked a pha awh toteh,
13 Jehu met some relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah and asked, “Who are you?” “We are relatives of Ahaziah,” they answered, “and we have come down to greet the sons of the king and of the queen mother.”
Jehu ni, Judah siangpahrang Ahaziah hmaunawnghanaw a hmu. Api nang maw telah a pacei. Ahnimouh ni Ahaziah e hmaunawnghanaw doeh atipouh awh. Siangpahrang e capanaw hoi siangpahrang canunaw e kut ka man awh han telah a pathung awh.
14 Then Jehu ordered, “Take them alive.” So his men took them alive, then slaughtered them at the well of Beth-eked—forty-two men. He spared none of them.
Jehu ni a hring o lah man awh telah ati. Hahoi a hring lah a man awh teh Betheked tangkom teng vah a thei awh, abuemlah 42 touh a pha teh buet touh hai hlung awh hoeh.
15 When he left there, he found Jehonadab son of Rechab, who was coming to meet him. Jehu greeted him and asked, “Is your heart as true to mine as my heart is to yours?” “It is!” Jehonadab replied. “If it is,” said Jehu, “give me your hand.” So he gave him his hand, and Jehu helped him into his chariot,
Haw hoi a tâco hnukkhu, ama dawn hanlah ka tho e, Rekhab capa Jehonadab hah a hmu awh, a kut a man pouh teh ahni koe nang na tak dawk kalan e lungpouk ka tawn e patetlah na lung pouk alan vaimoe telah atipouh. Jehonadab ni ka lungpouk a lan doeh atipouh. Telah pawiteh na kut sin haw atipouh teh, a kut teh a dâw pouh. Ahnie leng dawkvah pou a kâenkhai.
16 saying, “Come with me and see my zeal for the LORD!” So he had him ride in his chariot.
Ahnimouh ni, kai koe tho leih. BAWIPA hanlah kâyawm e hah panuek van telah atipouh. Hahoi amae leng van a kâcui sak.
17 When Jehu came to Samaria, he struck down everyone belonging to Ahab who remained there, until he had destroyed them, according to the word that the LORD had spoken to Elijah.
Samaria a pha awh toteh, Elijah koevah dei e BAWIPA e a lawk patetlah Samaria kaawm Ahab imthungkhunaw be a thei awh hoeh roukrak teh paloupalou a thei awh.
18 Then Jehu brought all the people together and said, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him a lot.
Jehu ni taminaw pueng a kaw teh ahnimouh koe Ahab ni Baal e thaw hah a tawk rawkrak e doeh. Jehu ni pawiteh a tawk katang han doeh.
19 Now, therefore, summon to me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests. See that no one is missing, for I have a great sacrifice for Baal. Whoever is missing will not live.” But Jehu was acting deceptively in order to destroy the servants of Baal.
Hatdawkvah, Baal koevah, thuengnae kalen poung poe hanelah ka tawn. Pâhma e naw pueng teh apihai hring awh mahoeh telah ati. Hatei Jehu ni Baal kabawknaw pueng hah thei hanlah, huenghai hoi a youk e doeh.
20 And Jehu commanded, “Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal.” So they announced it.
Jehu ni, Baal hanelah ka lentoe e, kamkhuengnae pathang awh atipouh teh hot teh a pathung awh.
21 Then Jehu sent word throughout Israel, and all the servants of Baal came; there was not a man who failed to show. They entered the temple of Baal, and it was filled from end to end.
Jehu ni, Isarel ram pueng dawk a patawn teh, Baal kabawknaw pueng teh a tho awh. A pâhma e roeroe awm hoeh, Baal bawkim dawk a kâen awh teh, Baal bawkimpui teh imhmalah takhang koehai imhlei lah totouh yikkawi awh.
22 And Jehu said to the keeper of the wardrobe, “Bring out garments for all the servants of Baal.” So he brought out garments for them.
Kamthoupnae hnica ka khenyawnnaw koevah Baal kabawknaw pueng hah, kamthoupnae hni kâkhu sak awh ati. Hottelah kamthoupnae hninaw hah a poe awh.
23 Next, Jehu and Jehonadab son of Rechab entered the temple of Baal, and Jehu said to the servants of Baal, “Look around to see that there are no servants of the LORD here among you—only servants of Baal.”
Jehu teh, Rekhab capa Jehonadab hoi Baal bawkim vah a kâen. Baal kabawknaw pueng koe awi hi vah Baal ka bawk hoeh e Jehovah e tami kaawm payon vaimoe, tawng ei haw kahawicalah khei awh atipouh.
24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had stationed eighty men outside and warned them, “If anyone allows one of the men I am delivering into your hands to escape, he will forfeit his life for theirs.”
Hahoi thuengnae sak hane hoi hmaisawi thuengnae poe hanelah, a kâen awh. Jehu ni alawilah tami 80 touh a kangdue sak teh hete na kut dawk na poe awh e naw heh buet touh haiyah na hlout sak awh pawiteh a hringnae yueng lah na hringnae na sung awh han telah atipouh.
25 When he had finished making the burnt offering, Jehu said to the guards and officers, “Go in and kill them. Do not let anyone out.” So the guards and officers put them to the sword, threw the bodies out, and went into the inner room of the temple of Baal.
Hmaisawi thuengnae be a poe tahma vah hettelah doeh ao. Jehu ni ransabawi hoi a ransanaw koevah, kâen sin nateh, thet awh lawih. Buet touh boehai hlung han awh atipouh. Tahloi hai koung a tâtueng awh teh ransabawi hoi ransanaw ni he pâmit awh. Hahoi Baal bawkim a onae kho vah a cei awh.
26 They brought out the sacred pillar of the temple of Baal and burned it.
Baal bawkim dawk kaawm e meikaphawk a la awh teh hmai a sawi awh.
27 They also demolished the sacred pillar of Baal. Then they tore down the temple of Baal and made it into a latrine, which it is to this day.
Baal talung ung e hah, he a kayei pouh awh. Baal bawkim hah a raphoe awh teh, eiim lah atu totouh a hno awh.
28 Thus Jehu eradicated Baal from Israel,
Hot patetlah, Jehu ni, Isarel ram hoi Baal teh he a kayei pouh.
29 but he did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat had caused Israel to commit—the worship of the golden calves at Bethel and Dan.
Hatei Isarelnaw hah, ka payon sak e Nabat capa Jeroboam e a payonnae Bethel kho hoi Dan kho kaawm e sui maitocanaw hah pahnawt awh hoeh.
30 Nevertheless, the LORD said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in carrying out what is right in My sight and have done to the house of Ahab all that was in My heart, four generations of your sons will sit on the throne of Israel.”
BAWIPA ni, Jehu koevah ka mit dawk kakuepcalah na sak teh ka lung hoi ka pouk e patetlah Ahab imthungkhu dawk na sak dawkvah, na capanaw hah se pali totouh Isarelnaw e bawitungkhung dawk a tahung han atipouh.
31 Yet Jehu was not careful to follow the instruction of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn away from the sins that Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.
Hatei, Jehu ni, Isarel BAWIPA Cathut, kâlawk teh na lungthin abuemlah, na tawm hoeh dawkvah, Jeroboam ni Isarel yonnae a sak sak e yon hah kâhat awh hoeh.
32 In those days the LORD began to reduce the size of Israel. Hazael defeated the Israelites throughout their territory
Hatnavah BAWIPA ni Isarel hnamthun takhai han a kamtawng toe. Hahoi teh, Hazael ni, Isarelnaw pueng teh pou a tâ toe.
33 from the Jordan eastward through all the land of Gilead (the region of Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh), and from Aroer by the Arnon Valley through Gilead to Bashan.
Jordan hoi Kanîtholae ram Gilead ramnaw pueng, Gad, Reuben, Manasseh, hoi Arnon yawn hoi Aroer hoi Gilead hoi Bashan ram totouh a tâ.
34 As for the rest of the acts of Jehu, along with all his accomplishments and all his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Jehu tawksaknae, thung dawk hoi kaawm rae naw pueng teh Isarel siangpahrangnaw e setouknae cauk dawk a thut awh nahoehmaw.
35 And Jehu rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz reigned in his place.
Hahoi Jehu teh a na mintoenaw koe a kâhat. Samaria vah a pakawp awh. A capa Zehoahaz ni a yueng lah a uk.
36 So the duration of Jehu’s reign over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
Hatnavah, Samaria vah Jehu ni Isarel kum 28 touh thung a uk.
