< 2 Kings 10 >
1 And Achab had seventy sons in Samaria: so Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the chief men of the city, and to the ancients, and to them that brought up Achab’s children, saying:
Nísinsin yìí, Ahabu ṣì ní àádọ́rin ọmọkùnrin ní ìdílé rẹ̀ ní Samaria. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, Jehu kọ lẹ́tà, ó sì fi wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí Samaria: sí àwọn oníṣẹ́ Jesreeli, sí àwọn àgbàgbà àti sí àwọn olùtọ́jú àwọn ọmọ Ahabu. Ó wí pé,
2 As soon as you receive these letters, ye that have your master’s sons, and chariots, and horses, and fenced cities, and armour,
“Ní kété tí lẹ́tà bá ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí àwọn ọmọ ọ̀gá rẹ wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, ìwọ sì ní àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ àti àwọn ẹṣin, ìlú olódi kan pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà,
3 Choose the best, and him that shall please you most of your master’s sons, and set him on his father’s throne, and fight for the house of your master.
yan èyí tí ó dára àti èyí tí ó níye jùlọ nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin ọ̀gá à rẹ, kí o sì gbé e lé orí ìtẹ́ baba a rẹ̀. Nígbà náà, kí o sì jà fún ilé ọ̀gá à rẹ.”
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said: Behold two kings could not stand before him, and how shall we be able to resist?
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀rù bà wọ́n, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Tí ọba méjì kò bá le kojú ìjà sí i, báwo ni a ṣẹ le è ṣe é?”
5 Therefore the overseers of the house, and the rulers of the city, and the ancients, and the tutors sent to Jehu, saying: We are thy servants, whatsoever thou shalt command us we will do, neither will we make us a king: do thou all that pleaseth thee.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ẹni tí ń ṣe olórí ilé, ẹni tí ń ṣe olórí ìlú ńlá, àwọn àgbàgbà àti àwọn olùtọ́jú náà rán iṣẹ́ yìí sí Jehu, pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni àwa jẹ́ pẹ̀lú, àwa yóò ṣe ohunkóhun tí o bá sọ. Àwa kì yóò yan ẹnikẹ́ni gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba; ìwọ ṣe ohunkóhun tí o rò pé ó dára jù lójú rẹ.”
6 And he wrote letters the second time to them, saying: If you be mine, and will obey me, take the heads of the sons of your master, and come to me to Jezrahel by tomorrow this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy men, were brought up with the chief men of the city.
Nígbà náà ni Jehu kọ lẹ́tà kejì sí wọn, wí pé, “Tí ìwọ bá wà ní ìhà tèmi, tí o sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ mi mọ́, mú orí àwọn ọmọkùnrin ọ̀gá à rẹ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní Jesreeli ní ìwòyí ọ̀la.” Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ọmọ-aládé àádọ́rin ọkùnrin, ń bẹ pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn ńlá ìlú náà tí ń tọ́ wọn.
7 And when the letters came to them, they took the king’s sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezrahel.
Nígbà tí ìwé náà dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí mú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ ọba tí gbogbo wọ́n jẹ́ àádọ́rin wọ́n sì pa gbogbo wọn. Wọ́n gbé orí wọn sí inú apẹ̀rẹ̀, wọ́n fi ránṣẹ́ sí Jehu ní Jesreeli.
8 And a messenger came, and told him, saying: They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said: Lay ye them in two heaps by the entering in of the gate until the morning.
Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ náà dé, ó sọ fún Jehu, “Wọ́n ti gbé orí àwọn ọmọ ọba náà wá.” Nígbà náà Jehu pàṣẹ, “Ẹ tò wọ́n ní òkìtì méjì ní àtiwọ ẹnu ibodè ìlú ńlá títí di òwúrọ̀.”
9 And when it was light, he went out, and standing said to all the people: You are just: if I conspired against my master, and slew him, who hath slain all these?
Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Jehu jáde lọ. Ó dúró níwájú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin jẹ́ aláìjẹ̀bi. Èmi ni mo dìtẹ̀ sí ọ̀gá mi, tí mo sì pa á, ṣùgbọ́n ta ni ó pa gbogbo àwọn wọ̀nyí?
10 See therefore now that there hath not fallen to the ground any of the words of the Lord, which the Lord spoke concerning the house of Achab, and the Lord hath done that which he spoke in the hand of his servant Elias.
Nígbà yìí, kò sí ọ̀rọ̀ kan tí Olúwa ti sọ sí ilé Ahabu tí yóò kùnà. Olúwa ti ṣe ohun tí ó ṣèlérí nípasẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Elijah.”
11 So Jehu slew all that were left of the house of Achab in Jezrahel, and all his chief men, and his friends, and his priests, till there were no remains left of him.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu pa gbogbo ẹni tí ó kù Jesreeli ní ilé Ahabu, pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin ìjòyè rẹ̀, àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ tímọ́tímọ́ àti àwọn àlùfáà rẹ̀, láì ku ẹni tí ó yọ nínú ewu fún un.
12 And he arose, and went to Samaria: and when he was come to the shepherds’ cabin in the way,
Jehu jáde lọ, ó sì lọ sí ọ̀kánkán Samaria. Ní Beti-Ekedi tí àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn.
13 He met with the brethren of Ochozias king of Juda, and he said to them: Who are you? And they answered: We are the brethren of Ochozias, and are come down to salute the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.
Jehu pàdé díẹ̀ lára àwọn ìbátan Ahasiah ọba Juda, ó sì béèrè, “Ta ni ẹ̀yin ń ṣe?” Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa jẹ́ ìbátan Ahasiah, àwa sì ti wá láti kí ìdílé ọba àti ti màmá ayaba.”
14 And he said: Take them alive. And they took them alive, and killed them at the pit by the cabin, two and forty men, and he left not any of them.
“Mú wọn láààyè!” ó pàṣẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n mú wọn láààyè, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n ní ẹ̀bá kọ̀nga Beti-Ekedi, ọkùnrin méjìlélógójì. Kò sì fi ẹnìkan sílẹ̀ láìkù.
15 And when he was departed thence, he found Jonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him: Is thy heart right as my heart is with thy heart? And Jonadab said: It is. If it be, said he, give me thy hand. He gave him his hand. And he lifted him up to him into the chariot,
Nígbà tí a sì jáde níbẹ̀, ó rí Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu ń bọ̀ wá pàdé rẹ̀, ó sì súre fún un, ó sì wí fún pé, “Ọkàn rẹ ha ṣe déédé bí ọkàn mi ti rí sí ọkàn rẹ?” Jehonadabu dáhùn wí pé, “Èmi wà.” Jehu wí pé, “Bí ó bá jẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀, fún mi ní ọwọ́ ọ̀ rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó ṣe pẹ̀lú, Jehu sì fà á lọ́wọ́ sókè sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nínú kẹ̀kẹ́.
16 And he said to him: Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord. So he made him ride in his chariot,
Jehu wí pé, “Wá pẹ̀lú mi, kí o sì rí ìtara mi fún Olúwa.” Nígbà náà ó jẹ́ kí ó gun kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀.
17 And brought him into Samaria. And he slew all that were left of Achab in Samaria, to a man, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Elias.
Nígbà tí Jehu wá sí Samaria, ó pa gbogbo àwọn tí a fi kalẹ̀ ní ìdílé Ahabu; ó pa wọ́n run, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a sọ sí Elijah.
18 And Jehu gathered together all the people, and said to them: Achab worshipped Baal a little, but I will worship him more.
Nígbà náà, Jehu kó gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn jọ, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ahabu sin Baali díẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n Jehu yóò sìn ín púpọ̀.
19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, and all his servants, and all his priests: let none be wanting, for I have a great sacrifice to offer to Baal: whosoever shall be wanting shall not live. Now Jehu did this craftily, that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Nísinsin yìí, ẹ pe gbogbo àwọn wòlíì Baali jọ fún mi, gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àlùfáà rẹ̀, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọ̀kan kí ó kù, nítorí èmí yóò rú ẹbọ ńlá sí Baali. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá kọ̀ láti wá, kò ní wà láààyè mọ́.” Ṣùgbọ́n Jehu fi ẹ̀tàn ṣe é, kí ó lè pa àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali run.
20 And he said: Proclaim a festival for Baal. And he called,
Jehu wí pé, “ẹ pe àpéjọ ní ìwòyí ọ̀la fún Baali.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n kéde rẹ.
21 And he sent into all the borders of Israel, and all the servants of Baal came: there was not one left that did not come. And they went into the temple of Baal: and the house of Baal was filled, from one end to the other.
Nígbà náà, Jehu rán ọ̀rọ̀ káàkiri Israẹli, gbogbo àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali sì wá: kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó dúró lẹ́yìn. Wọ́n kún ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà títí tí ó fi kún láti ìkangun èkínní títí dé èkejì.
22 And he said to them that were over the wardrobe: Bring forth garments for all the servants of Baal. And they brought them forth garments.
Jehu sì sọ fún olùṣọ́ pé, “Kí ó mú aṣọ ìgúnwà wá fún gbogbo àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó mú aṣọ ìgúnwà jáde wá fún wọn.
23 And Jehu and Jonadab the son of Rechab went to the temple of Baal, and said to the worshippers of Baal: Search, and see that there be not any with you of the servants of the Lord, but that there be the servants of Baal only.
Nígbà náà, Jehu àti Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu lọ sí inú ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali. Jehu sì wí fún àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali pé, “Wò ó yíká, kí o sì rí i pé kò sí ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa kankan pẹ̀lú yín níbí—kìkì òjíṣẹ́ Baali.”
24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings: but Jehu had prepared him fourscore men without, and said to them: If any of the men escape, whom I have brought into your hands, he that letteth him go shall answer life for life.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n wọ inú ilé lọ láti lọ rú ẹbọ àti ẹbọ sísun. Nísinsin yìí Jehu ti rán ọgọ́rin ọkùnrin sí ìta pẹ̀lú ìkìlọ̀ yìí: “Tí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín bá jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú àwọn ọkùnrin tí mo ń gbé sí ọwọ́ yín ó sálọ, yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀mí yín fún ẹ̀mí rẹ.”
25 And it came to pass, when the burnt offering was ended, that Jehu commanded his soldiers and captains, saying: Go in, and kill them, let none escape. And the soldiers and captains slew them with the edge of the sword, and cast them out: and they went into the city of the temple of Baal,
Ní kété tí Jehu ti parí ṣíṣe ẹbọ sísun, ó pàṣẹ fún àwọn olùṣọ́ àti àwọn ìjòyè: “Wọlé lọ, kí o sì pa wọ́n, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni kí ó sálọ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n gé wọn lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà. Àwọn olùṣọ́ àti ìjòyè ju ara wọn síta, wọ́n sì wọ inú ojúbọ ti ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali.
26 And brought the statue out of Baal’s temple, and burnt it,
Wọ́n gbé òkúta bíbọ náà jáde láti inú ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali, wọ́n sì jó o.
27 And broke it in pieces. They destroyed also the temple of Baal, and made a jakes in its place unto this day.
Wọ́n fọ́ òkúta bíbọ ti Baali náà túútúú, wọ́n sì ya ilé òrìṣà Baali bolẹ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn sì ń lò ó fún ilé ìgbẹ́ títí di ọjọ́ òní.
28 So Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel:
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu pa sí sin Baali run ní Israẹli.
29 But yet he departed not from the sills of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, nor did he forsake the golden calves that were in Bethel and Dan.
Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, Jehu kò yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, tí ó ṣokùnfà Israẹli láti dá—ti sí sin ẹgbọrọ màlúù wúrà ní Beteli àti Dani.
30 And the Lord said to Jehu: Because thou hast diligently executed that which was right and pleasing in my eyes, and hast done to the house of Achab according to all that was in my heart: thy children shall sit upon the throne of Israel to the fourth Generation.
Olúwa sì sọ fún Jehu pé, “Nítorí ìwọ ti ṣe dáradára ní ṣíṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ ní ojú mi, tí o sì ti ṣe sí ilé Ahabu gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí ó wà ní ọkàn mi, àwọn ọmọ ọ̀ rẹ yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli títí dé ìran kẹrin.”
31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the Lord the God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who had made Israel to sin.
Síbẹ̀ Jehu kò ṣe pẹ̀lẹ́ láti pa òfin Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli mọ́ pẹ̀lú tọkàntọkàn. Òun kò yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu èyí tí ó ṣokùnfà Israẹli láti dá.
32 In those days the Lord began to he weary of Israel: and Hazael ravaged them in all the coasts of Israel,
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, Olúwa ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní dín iye Israẹli kù. Hasaeli fi agbára jẹ ọba lórí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní gbogbo agbègbè wọn.
33 From the Jordan eastward, all the land of Galaad, and Gad, and Ruben, and Manasses, from Aroer, which is upon the torrent Amen, and Galaad, and Basan.
Ìlà-oòrùn ti Jordani ni gbogbo ilẹ̀ ti Gileadi (ẹ̀kún ilẹ̀ ti ará Gadi, Reubeni, àti Manase) láti Aroeri, tí ó wà létí kòtò Arnoni láti ìhà Gileadi sí Baṣani.
34 But the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and his strength, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Fún ti òmíràn ti iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jehu, gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, gbogbo àṣeyọrí rẹ̀, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sí inú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli?
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joachaz his son reigned in his stead.
Jehu sinmi pẹ̀lú baba a rẹ̀, a sì sin ín sí Samaria Jehoahasi ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
36 And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel, in Samaria, was eight and twenty years.
Àkókò tí Jehu fi jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní Samaria jẹ́ ọdún méjìdínlọ́gbọ̀n.
