Kings IV 9
1 And Elisaie the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up your loins, and take this cruse of oil in your hand, and go to Remmoth Galaad.
Mneneri Elisa anayitanitsa mmodzi mwa ana a aneneri, namuwuza kuti, “Manga lamba mʼchiwuno mwako, tenga botolo la mafuta mʼdzanja lako ndipo upite ku Ramoti Giliyadi.
2 And you shall enter there, and shall see there Ju the son of Josaphat son of Namessi, and shall go in and make him rise up from amongst his brethren, and shall bring him into a secret chamber.
Ukakafika kumeneko, ukafunefune Yehu mwana wa Yehosafati, mwana wa Nimisi. Ukapite kwa iye, ukamuchotse pakati pa anzake ndi kukamulowetsa mʼchipinda chamʼkati.
3 And you shall take the cruse of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and say you, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you king over Israel: and you shall open the door, and flee, and not wait.
Ndipo ukatenge botololi ndi kuthira mafuta pa mutu wake ndipo ukanene kuti, ‘Yehova akuti, Ine ndikudzoza iwe kukhala mfumu ya Israeli.’ Kenaka ukatsekule chitseko ndi kuthawa ndipo usakachedwe!”
4 And the young man the prophet went to Remmoth Galaad.
Choncho mneneri wachinyamatayo anapita ku Ramoti Giliyadi.
5 And he went in, and, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have a message to you, O captain. And Ju said, To which of all us? And he said, To you, O captain.
Atafika ku Giliyadiko anapeza atsogoleri a ankhondo ali pa msonkhano. Iye anati, “Mtsogoleri, ine ndili ndi uthenga wanu.” Ndipo Yehu anafunsa kuti, “Uthengawo ndi wa yani pakati pathu?” Mneneriyo anayankha kuti, “Ndi wa inuyo, mtsogoleri.”
6 And he arose, and went into the house: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed you to be king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.
Yehu anayimirira nakalowa mʼnyumba. Pamenepo mneneriyo anakhuthulira mafuta pamutu pa Yehu ndipo ananena kuti, “Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli akuti, ‘Ine ndikukudzoza kukhala mfumu ya Israeli, anthu a Yehova.
7 And you shall utterly destroy the house of Achaab your master from before me, and shall avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezabel,
Uyenera kuwononga nyumba ya mbuye wako Ahabu ndipo ndidzabwezera imfa ya atumiki anga, aneneri ndiponso imfa ya atumiki ena onse a Yehova amene anaphedwa ndi Yezebeli.
8 and at the hand of the whole house of Achaab: and you shall utterly cut off from the house of Achaab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.
Banja lonse la Ahabu lidzatheratu. Ndidzachotsa munthu aliyense wamwamuna wa banja la Ahabu kaya ndi kapolo kapena mfulu.
9 And I will make the house of Achaab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa the son of Achia.
Ndidzachititsa kuti banja la Ahabu lifanane ndi banja la Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati ndiponso ngati banja la Baasa mwana wa Ahiya.
10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
Kunena za Yezebeli, agalu adzamudya ku dera la Yezireeli ndipo palibe amene adzamuyike mʼmanda.’” Kenaka mneneriyo anatsekula chitseko nʼkuthawa.
11 And Ju went forth to the servants of his lord, and they said to him, [Is] all well? Why came this mad fellow in to you? And he said to them, You know the man, and his communication.
Yehu atatuluka kupita kumene kunali atsogoleri anzake, mmodzi mwa iwo anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi zonse zili bwino? Kodi munthu wamisala uja anabwera kudzatani kwa iwe?” Yehu anayankha kuti, “Iwe ukumudziwa munthu uja ndiponso ukudziwa zomwe amayankhula.”
12 And they said, [It is] wrong: tell us now. And Ju said to them, Thus and thus spoke he to me, saying, —and he said, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you to be king over Israel.
Atsogoleri aja anati, “Ukunama! Tiwuze.” Yehu anati, “Zimene wandiwuza ndi izi: ‘Yehova akuti: Ine ndakudzoza iwe kukhala mfumu ya Israeli.’”
13 And when they heard it, they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with the trumpet, and said, Ju is king.
Atsogoleri aja mofulumira anatenga zofunda zawo naziyala pansi pa makwerero kuti Yehu akhalepo. Kenaka analiza lipenga, nafuwula kuti, “Yehu ndiye mfumu!”
14 So Ju the son of Josaphat the son of Namessi conspired against Joram, and Joram was defending Remmoth Galaad, he and all Israel, because of Azael king of Syria.
Choncho Yehu mwana wa Yehosafati, mwana wa Nimisi, anachitira chiwembu Yoramu. (Nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti Yoramu ndi Aisraeli onse akuteteza Ramoti Giliyadi kwa Hazaeli mfumu ya ku Aramu,
15 And king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezrael of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, in his war with Azael king of Syria. And Ju said, If your heart is with me, let there not go forth out of the city one fugitive to go and report to Jezrael.
koma nʼkuti Yoramu atabwerera ku Yezireeli kuti akachire mabala amene Aaramu anamuvulaza pa nkhondo ndi Hazaeli mfumu ya ku Aramu.) Yehu anati, “Ngati mukugwirizana nazo zimenezi, wina aliyense asatuluke mu mzinda muno kupita kukafotokoza nkhaniyi ku Yezireeli.”
16 And Ju rode and advanced, and came down to Jezrael; for Joram king of Israel was getting healed in Jezrael of the arrow-wounds wherewith the Syrians [had] wounded him in Rammath in the war with Azael king of Syria; for he [was] strong and a mighty man: and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to see Joram.
Pamenepo Yehu anakwera galeta lake, napita ku Yezireeli, chifukwa Yoramu anali akupumula kumeneko ndipo Ahaziya, mfumu ya ku Yuda, nʼkuti ali komweko kudzamuona.
17 And there went up a watchman upon the tower of Jezrael, and saw the dust [made by] Ju as he approached; and he said, I see dust. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Peace.
Mlonda amene ankayimirira pa nsanja yolondera mzinda wa Yezireeli ataona gulu lankhondo la Yehu likuyandikira, anafuwula kuti, “Ndikuona gulu lankhondo likubwera.” Yoramu analamula kuti, “Peza munthu wokwera kavalo, mutume kuti akakumane nawo ndi kuwafunsa kuti, ‘Kodi mukubwera mwamtendere?’”
18 And there went a horseman to meet them, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me. And the watchman reported, saying, The messenger came up to them, and has not returned.
Choncho munthu wokwera kavalo anapita kukakumana ndi Yehu ndipo anati, “Mfumu ikufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi mukubwera mwamtendere?’” Yehu anayankha kuti, “Kodi iwe nkhani ya mtendere yakukhudza bwanji? Tiye, zinditsata pambuyo panga.” Mlonda uja anakafotokoza kwa mfumu kuti, “Wamthenga uja wakafika kwa anthuwo koma sakubwerera.”
19 And he sent another horseman, and he came to him, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me.
Choncho mfumu inatumanso munthu wina wachiwiri wokwera kavalo. Atafika kwa anthuwo iye anati, “Mfumu ikufunsa kuti, ‘Kodi mukubwera mwamtendere?’” Yehu anayankha kuti, “Kodi iwe nkhani ya mtendere yakukhudza bwanji? Tiye, zinditsata pambuyo panga.”
20 And the watchman reported, saying, He came up to them, and has not returned: and the driver drives Ju the son of Namessi, for it is with furious [haste].
Mlonda uja anakanenanso kuti, “Wamthenga uja wakafika kwa anthuwo koma sakubwereranso. Kuyendako kukukhala ngati kwa Yehu mwana wa Nimisi, iye amayenda ngati munthu wamisala.”
21 And Joram said, Make ready. And one made ready the chariot: and Joram the king of Israel went forth, and Ochozias king of Juda, each in his chariot, and they went to meet Ju, and found him in the portion of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
Yoramu analamula kuti, “Konzani galeta langa.” Ndipo atakonza galeta lake, Yoramu mfumu ya Israeli ndi Ahaziya mfumu ya ku Yuda anakwera nʼkutuluka mu mzindamo, aliyense atakwera galeta lake, kukakumana ndi Yehu. Iwo anakumana ndi Yehu pa munda umene unali wa Naboti, wa ku Yezireeli.
22 And it came to pass when Joram saw Ju, that he said, [Is it] peace, Ju? And Ju said, How [can it be] peace? as yet [there are] the whoredoms of your mother Jezabel, and her abundant witchcrafts.
Yoramu ataona Yehu anafunsa kuti, “Yehu, kodi wabwera mwamtendere?” Yehu anayankha kuti, “Pangakhale bwanji mtendere pamene zopembedza mafano zonse zilipo ndiponso ufiti wa amayi ako Yezebeli uli ponseponse?”
23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ochozias, Treachery, Ochozias.
Yoramu anatembenuka, nathawa akufuwula kwa Ahaziya kuti, “Ahaziya, anthuwa atiwukira!”
24 And Ju bent his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms, and his arrow went out at his heart, and he bowed upon his knees.
Pamenepo Yehu anakoka uta wake ndipo analasa Yoramu kumsana pakati pa mapewa. Muviwo unakalasa mtima wake ndipo anagwa pansi mʼgaleta lakelo.
25 And [Ju] said to Badecar his chief officer, Cast him into the portion of ground of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, for I and you remember, riding [as we were] on chariots after Achaab his father, that the Lord took up this burden against him, [saying],
Yehu anawuza Bidikara, mtsogoleri wa galeta lake kuti, “Munyamule ndipo ukamuponye mʼmunda umene unali wa Naboti wa ku Yezireeli, chifukwa kumbukira mmene iwe ndi ine tinkayenda pambuyo pa Ahabu abambo ake, kuti Yehova ananeneratu za iye kuti,
26 Surely, I have seen yesterday the blood of Nabuthai, and the blood of his sons, says the Lord; and I will recompense him in this portion, says the Lord. Now then, I pray you, take him up and cast him into the portion, according to the word of the Lord.
‘Zoonadi dzulo ndinaona magazi a Naboti ndi magazi a ana ake, akutero Yehova, ndipo Ine ndidzakubwezera ndithu choyipa chimenechi pa munda womwe uno, akutero Yehova.’ Tsono munyamule ndipo ukamuponye mʼmundamo, potsatira zimene Yehova ananena.”
27 And Ochozias king of Juda saw [it], and fled by the way of Baethgan. And Ju pursued after him, and said, [Slay] him also. And one struck him in the chariot at the going up of Gai, which is Jeblaam: and he fled to Mageddo, and died there.
Ahaziya mfumu ya ku Yuda ataona zimene zinachitika, anathawira ku Beti Hagani. Yehu anamuthamangitsa, uku akufuwula kuti, “Mupheninso!” Iwo anamuvulaza ali mʼgaleta lakelo pa njira yopita ku Guri pafupi ndi Ibuleamu, koma iye anathawira ku Megido ndipo anakafera kumeneko.
28 And his servants put him on a chariot, and brought him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his sepulchre in the city of David.
Antchito ake anamunyamulira mʼgaleta kupita naye ku Yerusalemu ndipo anamuyika mʼmanda pamodzi ndi makolo ake mu mzinda wa Davide.
29 And in the eleventh year of Joram king of Israel, Ochozias began to reign over Juda.
(Mʼchaka cha khumi ndi chimodzi cha ufumu wa Yoramu mwana wa Ahabu, Ahaziya anakhala mfumu ya ku Yuda).
30 And Ju came to Jezrael; and Jezabel heard [of it], and coloured her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked through the window.
Kenaka Yehu anapita ku Yezireeli. Yezebeli atamva zimene zinachitika, anapaka zodzikometsera mʼmaso, naluka tsitsi lake, namasuzumira pa zenera.
31 And Ju entered into the city; and she said, Had Zambri, the murderer of his master, peace?
Pamene Yehu ankalowa pa chipata iye anafunsa kuti, “Kodi wabwera mwamtendere, iwe Zimuri, munthu wopha mbuye wako?”
32 And he lifted up his face towards the window, and saw her, and said, Who are you? Come down with me. And two eunuchs looked down towards him.
Yehu anakweza maso nayangʼana pa zenera, ndipo anafuwula kuti, “Kodi ndani ali mbali yanga? Ndani?” Anthu ofulidwa awiri kapena atatu anayangʼana Yehu pansipo.
33 And he said, Throw her [down]. And they threw her [down]; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and they trampled on her.
Yehu anawawuza kuti, “Muponyeni pansi!” Motero anamuponya pansi ndipo magazi ake ena anafalikira pa khoma ndi pa akavalo pamene ankamupondaponda.
34 And [Ju] went in and ate and drank, and said, Look now, after this cursed woman, and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.
Yehu analowa mʼnyumba yaufumu ndipo anadya ndi kumwa. Kenaka iye anati, “Kamutoleni mkazi wotembereredwayo, ndipo kamuyikeni mʼmanda, popeza ndi mwana wa mfumu.”
35 And they went to bury her; but they found nothing of her but the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.
Koma atapita kuti akamuyike mʼmanda, sanapeze kanthu kupatula chibade cha mutu wokha, mapazi ake ndi manja ake.
36 And they returned and told him. And he said, [It is] the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Eliu the Thesbite, saying, In the portion of Jezrael shall the dogs eat the flesh of Jezabel.
Choncho iwo anabwerera kwa Yehu ndi kukamufotokozera kuti, “Mawu amene Yehova anayankhula kudzera mwa mtumiki wake Eliya wa ku Tisibe ndi awa: Pa munda wa ku Yezireeli agalu adzadya mtembo wa Yezebeli.
37 And the carcass of Jezabel shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezrael, so that they shall not say, [This is] Jezabel.
Mtembo wa Yezebeli udzakhala ngati zinyalala pa munda wa ku Yezireeli, kotero kuti palibe amene adzathe kunena kuti, ‘Uyu ndi Yezebeli.’”
