< 2 Kings 10 >

1 There were seventy sons of the house of Ahab living in Samaria. So Jehu wrote letters and sent them to the officials of Samaria, to the elders, and to the guardians of the sons of Ahab, saying:
To, akwai’ya’ya maza saba’in na gidan Ahab a Samariya. Saboda haka Yehu ya rubuta wasiƙu, ya aika su Samariya, zuwa ga shugabannin Yezireyel, da kuma ga masu lura da’ya’yan Ahab. Ya ce,
2 “Since your master's sons are with you, and you have at your disposal chariots, horses, a fortified city, and weapons, when you receive this letter,
“Da zarar wasiƙan nan ta sadu da ku, da yake’ya’yan maigidanku suna tare da ku, kuna kuma da kekunan yaƙi da dawakai, da birni mai katanga da makamai,
3 choose the best and most appropriate son of your master, place him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.”
sai ku zaɓi mafi cancanta a cikin’ya’yan maigidanku ku sa shi a kan kursiyin mahaifinsa. Sa’an nan ku yi yaƙi don gidan maigidanku.”
4 But they were extremely frightened, and said to themselves, “If two kings couldn't defeat him, how could we?”
Amma suka razana suka ce, “Idan sarakuna biyu ba su iya yin tsayayya da shi ba, wane mu?”
5 So the palace and the city leaders, the elders, and the guardians sent a message to Jehu: “We are your servants, and we will do whatever you tell us. We're not going to make anyone king. Do what you think is best.”
Saboda haka sarkin fada, da gwamnan birnin, da dattawa, da kuma masu lura da’ya’yan suka aika da saƙo ga Yehu, cewa, “Mu bayinka ne, za mu kuma yi duk abin da ka ce. Ba za mu naɗa kowa sarki ba; sai ka yi abin da ka ga ya fi kyau.”
6 Then Jehu wrote them a second letter, saying, “If you are on my side, and if you are going to obey what I say, bring the heads of your master's sons to me in Jezreel by this time tomorrow.” The seventy king's sons were being raised by the leading men of the city.
Sai Yehu ya sāke rubuta musu wasiƙa ta biyu, ya ce, “In a gefena kuke, to, sai ku yi biyayya da ni, ku fille kawunan’ya’yan maigidanku, ku kawo mini a Yezireyel war haka gobe.” To,’ya’yan sarki, su saba’in, suna tare da manyan birni waɗanda suke lura da su.
7 When the letter arrived, they seized the king's sons and killed all seventy of them, placed their heads in baskets, and sent them to Jehu at Jezreel.
Sa’ad da wasiƙar ta iso, sai mutanen nan suka ɗauki dukan’ya’yan sarkin nan saba’in, suka kashe su, suka sa kawunansu cikin kwanduna, suka aika wa Yehu a Yezireyel.
8 A messenger came in and told Jehu, “They have brought the heads of the king's sons.” Jehu gave the order, “Put them in two piles at the entrance to the city gate until the morning.”
Da ɗan saƙon ya iso, sai aka ce wa Yehu, “Sun kawo kawunan’ya’yan sarki.” Sai Yehu ya ce, “Ku ajiye su kashi biyu a ƙofar gari har safiya.”
9 In the morning Jehu went out to speak to the people who had gathered. “You haven't done anything wrong,” he told them. “I was the one who plotted against my master and killed him. But who killed all these?
Da gari ya waye, sai Yehu ya fita ya tsaya a gaban dukan jama’a ya ce, “Ba ku da laifi. Ni ne na ƙulla wa maigidana maƙarƙashiya, na kuma kashe shi, amma wa ya karkashe dukan waɗannan?
10 Rest assured that nothing of what the Lord has prophesied against the house of Ahab will fail, for the Lord has done what he promised through his servant Elijah.”
Ku sani fa, ba kalmar da Ubangiji ya faɗa game da gidan Ahab da ba za tă cika ba. Ubangiji ya yi abin da ya alkawarta ta bakin bawansa Iliya.”
11 So Jehu killed everyone in Jezreel who was left of the house of Ahab, as well as all his high officials, close friends, and priests. This left Ahab without a single survivor.
Saboda haka Yehu ya kashe duk waɗanda suka rage na iyalin Ahab a Yezireyel, tare da dukan fadawansa da aminansa da firistocinsa, ba a bar masa kowa ba.
12 Then Jehu left and went Samaria. At Beth-eked of the Shepherds,
Sa’an nan Yehu ya nufi Samariya. Da ya kai Bet-Eked na Makiyaya,
13 he met some relatives of Ahaziah, king of Judah. “Who are you?” he asked them. “We're relatives of Ahaziah,” they replied. “We've come to visit the sons of the king and of the queen mother.”
sai ya gamu da waɗansu daga dangin Ahaziya sarkin Yahuda, sai ya tambaye su, ya ce, “Ku, su wane ne?” Suka ce, “Mu dangin Ahaziya ne, mun kuma zo ne mu gai da iyalan sarki da kuma mahaifiyar sarauniya.”
14 “Take them alive!” Jehu ordered. So they took them alive, then killed them at the well of Beth-eked. There were forty-two men. He didn't allow any of them to live.
Sai ya umarta ya ce, “A kama su da rai!” Aka kuwa kama su aka yayyanka kusa da rijiyar Bet-Eked, su arba’in da biyu. Ba a bar wani da rai ba.
15 He left there and came across Jehonadab, son of Rekab, who was coming to meet him. Jehu greeted him and asked him, “Are you as committed to me, as I am to you?” “Yes I am,” Jehonadab replied. “In that case, give me your hand,” said Jehu. So he stretched out his hand, and Jehu helped him up into the chariot.
Bayan ya bar wurin, sai ya gamu da Yehonadab ɗan Rekab wanda yake kan hanyarsa don yă sadu da shi. Sai Yehu ya gaishe shi, ya ce, “Ka amince da ni yadda na amince da kai?” Yehonadab ya ce, “I.” Yehu ya ce, “To, in haka ne ka ba ni hannunka.” Sai ya miƙa masa, Yehu kuwa ya ja shi cikin keken yaƙin.
16 “Come with me and see how dedicated I am to the Lord!” Jehu said, and had him ride in his chariot.
Yehu ya ce, “Zo tare da ni ka ga himmata saboda Ubangiji.” Sa’an nan ya sa suka tafi tare cikin keken yaƙinsa.
17 When Jehu arrived in Samaria, he went around killing everyone who was left of Ahab's family until he had killed all of them, just as the Lord had said through Elijah.
Da Yehu ya isa Samariya, sai ya karkashe dukan sauran iyalin Ahab, ya hallaka su, bisa ga maganar da Ubangiji ya faɗa ta bakin Iliya.
18 Jehu had all the people gather together and told them, “Ahab worshiped Baal a little, but Jehu will worship him a lot.
Sa’an nan Yehu ya tattara dukan jama’a ya ce musu, “Ahab ya bauta wa Ba’al kaɗan ne kawai; amma Yehu zai bauta masa sosai.
19 So summon all the prophets of Baal, all his servants and all his priests. Make sure no one is missing, because I'm organizing a great sacrifice for Baal. Anyone who doesn't attend will be executed.” But Jehu's plan was a trick to destroy the followers of Baal.
Yanzu sai ku kira dukan annabawan Ba’al, dukan masu yin masa hidima da kuma dukan firistocinsa. Ku tabbata ba a manta da wani ba, gama zan yi wa Ba’al babbar hadaya. Duk wanda bai zo ba, a bakin ransa.” Amma Yehu yana wayo ne domin yă hallaka masu yi wa Ba’al sujada.
20 Jehu gave the order, “Call a religious assembly to honor Baal!” So they did so.
Yehu ya ce, “Ku kira jama’a don a girmama Ba’al.” Saboda haka suka yi shela.
21 Jehu sent the announcement through the whole of Israel. All the followers of Baal came—not a single man was missing. They went into the temple of Baal, filling it from end to end.
Sa’an nan ya aika saƙo ko’ina a Isra’ila, dukan masu yi wa Ba’al hidima kuwa suka tattaru, ba mutumin da bai zo ba. Suka yi cincirindo a haikalin Ba’al har sai da ya cika makil.
22 Jehu said to the keeper of the wardrobe, “Distribute clothes for all the servants of Baal.” So he brought out clothes for them.
Sai Yehu ya ce wa mai ajiyar tufafi, “Ka kawo riguna domin dukan masu yi wa Ba’al hidima.” Sai ya fito musu da riguna.
23 Then Jehu and Jehonadab, son of Rekab, went into the temple of Baal. Jehu told the followers of Baal, “Look around and make sure that no one who follows the Lord is here with you, only the worshipers of Baal.”
Sa’an nan Yehu da Yehonadab ɗan Rekab, suka shiga haikalin Ba’al. Yehu ya ce wa masu yi wa Ba’al sujada, “Ku dudduba ku tabbatar cewa babu wani bawan Ubangiji a nan tare da ku, sai masu hidimar Ba’al kawai.”
24 They were inside presenting sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had positioned eighty men outside and cautioned them, “I'm handing these men over to you. If you let any of them escape, you will pay for his life with yours.”
Saboda haka suka shiga don su miƙa hadayu da kuma hadaya ta ƙonawa. To, Yehu ya riga ya ba wa mutane takwas wannan kashedi a waje cewa, “In waninku ya bar ɗaya daga cikin mutanen nan da nake danƙa a hannunku ya tsere, to, a bakin ransa.”
25 As soon as Jehu had finished presenting the burnt offering, he ordered his guards and officers, “Go in and kill them all! Don't let even one escape!” So they killed them with their swords. The guards and officers threw their bodies outside, and then they went into the inner sanctuary of the temple of Baal.
Nan da nan sa’ad da Yehu ya gama yin hadayar, sai ya umarci masu gadin da hafsoshi, “Ku shiga ku karkashe su; kada ku bar wani yă tsere.” Saboda haka suka karkashe su da takobi. Masu gadin da hafsoshin suka wuwwurga gawawwakinsu waje, suka kuma shiga ciki cikin haikalin Ba’al ɗin,
26 They dragged out the idol pillars and burned them.
suka fitar da dutsen tsafi daga haikalin Ba’al, suka kuma ƙone shi.
27 They smashed the sacred pillar of Baal, and tore down the temple of Baal and turned it into a toilet, which it still is to this day.
Suka farfasa dutsen tsafin Ba’al, suka kuma rushe haikalin, mutane suka mai da wurin salga har yă zuwa yau.
28 This was how Jehu destroyed Baal worship in Israel,
Ta haka Yehu ya hallaka butar Ba’al a Isra’ila.
29 but he did not end the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—the worship of the golden calves at Bethel and Dan.
Duk da haka, bai rabu da zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata ba, wato, yin sujada ga siffofin maruƙa na zinariya a Betel da kuma Dan.
30 The Lord said to Jehu, “Since you have done well, and have carried out what is right in my sight, and have accomplished all that I planned for the house of Ahab, your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”
Ubangiji ya ce wa Yehu, “Tun da yake ka aikata abin da yake mai kyau a idanuna, ka kuma yi wa gidan Ahab dukan abin da yake a zuciyata, ina yin maka alkawari cewa zuriyarka za su yi mulkin Isra’ila har tsara ta huɗu.”
31 But Jehu was not completely committed to following the law of the Lord, the God of Israel. He did not end the sins that Jeroboam had made Israel commit.
Duk da haka, Yehu bai mai da hankali ya kiyaye dokokin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila da dukan zuciyarsa ba. Bai rabu da zunubin Yerobowam, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata ba.
32 At that time the Lord began to reduce the extent of Israel. Hazael defeated the Israelites throughout their territory
A kwanakin sai Ubangiji ya fara rage girman Isra’ila, Hazayel ya yi nasara a bisa Isra’ila a ko’ina a yankinsu
33 east of the Jordan, all the land of Gilead (the region occupied by Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh), and from Aroer through the Arnon Valley up to Gilead and Bashan.
gabas da Urdun, cikin dukan ƙasar Gileyad (yankin Gad, da na Ruben, da na Manasse), daga Arower wajen Kwarin Arnon ya ratsa Gileyad zuwa Bashan.
34 The rest of what happened in Jehu's reign, all that he did and what he accomplished, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yehu, da dukan abin da ya yi, a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Isra’ila.
35 Jehu died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoahaz succeeded him as king.
Yehu ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka binne shi a Samariya. Yehoyahaz kuma ya ci sarauta bayansa.
36 Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria for twenty-eight years.
Yehu ya yi sarautar Isra’ila a Samariya shekara ashirin da takwas.
