2 Kings 9
1 Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets and told him, “Put your cloak into your belt, take this flask of olive oil, and go to Ramoth-gilead.
Na ka karanga a Eriha poropiti ki tetahi o nga tama a nga poropiti, a ka mea ki a ia, Whitikiria tou hope, ka mau i tenei pounamu hinu i tou ringa, ka haere ki Ramoto Kireara.
2 Once you get there, look for Jehu, son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi. Go in, get him away from his companions, and take him to an inner room. Get him to leave his friends, lead him to a private room,
E tae koe ki reira, tirohia atu i reira a Iehu tama a Iehohapata tama a Nimihi, ka haere koe, ka mea i a ia kia whakatika i roto i ona tuakana, a ka mau i a ia ki tetahi ruma i roto.
3 take the flask of olive oil, and pour it on his head. Tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king of Israel.’ Then open the door and run away! Don't wait around!”
Katahi ka mau ki te pounamu hinu, ka riringi ki runga ki tona matenga, ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo Iharaira. Ko reira koe uaki ai i te tatu, ka rere, a kaua e whakaroa.
4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead.
Heoi haere ana taua taitama, ara te taitama, te poropiti, ki Ramoto Kireara.
5 When he arrived, he saw the army commanders sitting around. “I've got a message for you, commander,” he said. “For which one of us?” Jehu asked. “For you, commander,” he replied.
A, no tona taenga atu, na ko nga rangatira o te ope e noho ana; a ka mea ia, He kupu taku ki a koe, e te rangatira. Ano ra ko Iehu, Ki a wai koia o matou katoa? Ano ra ko tera, Ki a koe, e te rangatira.
6 Jehu got up and went inside, where the young prophet poured the olive oil on his head and announced to him, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anoint you king over the Lord's people Israel.
Na whakatika ana ia, a haere ana ki roto ki te whare; na ringihia ana e tera te hinu ki tona matenga, a ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo ta Ihowa iwi, mo Iharaira.
7 You are going to destroy the family of Ahab, your master. You will avenge the blood my prophets and the blood of all the Lord's servants killed by Jezebel.
A mau e patu te whare o Ahapa, o tou ariki, kia whai utu ai ahau mo nga toto o aku pononga, o nga poropiti, mo nga toto hoki o nga pononga katoa a Ihowa, i te ringa o Ietepere.
8 The whole house of Ahab will be eradicated—I will destroy all the males of Ahab's family in Israel, both slave and free.
Ka ngaro hoki te whare katoa o Ahapa: a ka hautopea atu e ahau i a Ahapa nga tamariki tane katoa, me nga mea i tutakina atu, i mahue ranei i roto i a Iharaira.
9 I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha, son of Ahijah.
A ka meinga e ahau te whare o Ahapa kia rite ki te whare o Ieropoama tama a Nepata, ki te whare hoki o Paaha tama a Ahia.
10 Dogs will eat Jezebel, Ahab's wife, at the plot of ground in Jezreel, and no one will bury her.” Then the young prophet opened the door and ran away.
Na ma nga kuri e kai a Ietepere ki te wahi o Ietereere, a kahore he tangata hei tanu i a ia. Na uakina ana e ia te tatau, a rere ana.
11 When Jehu went back out to the other officers of his master, they asked him, “Is everything fine? Why did this crazy man come to you?” “You know what he's like, and how he goes on and on,” he replied.
Katahi a Iehu ka puta mai ki waho, ki nga pononga a tona ariki; a ka mea tetahi ki a ia, Kei te pai ranei? he aha tenei poauau i haere mai ai ki a koe? Ano ra ko ia ki a ratou, E mohio ana koutou ki te tangata ra, ki ana korero hoki.
12 “Liar!” they said. “Please tell us what's going on.” “Well, he talked to me about this and that, and he told me, ‘This is what the Lord says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”
Ano ra ko ratou, He teka: korerotia mai ki a matou inaianei. Na ka mea ia, Koia ano tenei ana korero ki ahau, Ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo Iharaira.
13 They quickly grabbed their cloaks and spread them on the bare steps. They blew the trumpet and shouted, “Jehu is king!”
Na hohoro tonu ratou, ka mau ki tona kakahu, ki tona kakahu, wharikitia iho ki raro i a ia, i runga i te arawhata, a whakatangihia ana te tetere, me te ki ano, Ko Iehu te kingi.
14 So Jehu, son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, plotted rebellion against Joram. Joram and the whole Israelite army had been defending Ramoth-Gilead against Hazael, king of Aram.
Heoi whakatupuria ana e Iehu tama a Iehohapata tama a Nimihi he he mo Iorama. Na i puritia e Iorama, e ratou ko Iharaira katoa, a Ramoto Kireara, he whakaaro ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria:
15 But Joram had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he'd received fighting against Hazael, king of Aram. So Jehu said, “If you commanders want to make me king, don't let anyone leave town and go and announce it in Jezreel.”
Ko Kingi Iehorama ia kua hoki ki Ietereere kia rongoatia ona tunga i tu ai ia i nga Hiriani i tana whawhai ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria. Na ka mea a Iehu, Mehemea ko to koutou whakaaro tenei, na kei tukua tetahi ki waho, kei puta atu i te pa, ka h aere ka korero ki Ietereere.
16 Jehu got on his chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram was recuperating there. Ahaziah, king of Judah, was there too because he had come to visit Joram.
Heoi eke ana a Iehu ki te hariata, a haere ana ki Ietereere; i reira hoki a Iorama e takoto ana. A ko Ahatia kingi o Hura kua riro ki raro, kia kite i a Iorama.
17 The watchman on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu's soldiers approaching, and he shouted out, “I see a soldiers coming!” “Choose a horseman,” Joram ordered. “Send him out to meet them and ask, ‘Do you come in peace?’”
Na ko te kaitutei i runga i te pourewa i Ietereere e tu ana, a ka kitea e ia te ropu a Iehu i a ia e haere mai ana, na ka mea, Kei te kite atu ahau i te ope tangata. Na ka mea a Iehorama, Tikina he tangata eke hoiho, ka unga ki te whakatutaki i a ratou, a mana e mea atu, He pai ranei?
18 So a horseman rode off to meet Jehu, and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Do you come in peace?’” “What has peace got to do with you?” Jehu replied. “Turn around and follow me.” The watchman reported, “The messenger has reached them, but he's not returning.”
Heoi haere ana tetahi i runga i te hoiho ki te whakatau i a ia a ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a te kingi, He pai ranei? Ano ra ko Iehu, Hei aha mau te pai? haere ake ki muri i ahau. A ka korero te kaitutei, ka mea, I tae te karere ki a ratou, otiia kahore ano kia hoki mai.
19 The king sent out a second horseman. He went up to them and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Do you come in peace?’” “What has peace got to do with you?” Jehu replied. “Turn around and follow me.”
Katahi ka unga ano e ia tetahi atu kaieke hoiho, a ka tae tera ki a ratou, ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a te kingi, He pai ranei? Ano ra ko Iehu, Hei aha mau te pai? hui ake koe ki muri i ahau.
20 The watchman reported, “The messenger has reached them, but he's not returning. The driving looks like the driving of Jehu, son of Nimshi—he's a crazy driver!”
Na ka korero te kaitutei, ka mea, I tae ia ki a ratou, ehoi kahore ano kia hoki mai: a ko te whui o te hariata, rite tonu ki te whiu a te hariata, rite tonu ki te whiu a Iehu tama a Nimihi; he porangi rawa hoki tana whiu.
21 “Prepare my chariot!” Joram shouted, and they had his chariot ready. Then Joram, king of Israel, and Ahaziah, king of Judah, set off in their separate chariots, and met Jehu on the plot of ground that was previously owned by Naboth from Jezreel.
Na ka mea a Iehorama, Whakanohoia. Na whakanohoia ana e ratou tona hariata. A ka puta a Iehorama kingi o Iharaira raua ko Ahatia kingi o Hura i runga i tona hariata, i tona hariata, a haere ana ki te whakatutaki i a Iehu, a tutaki ana ki a ia ki te wahi o Napoto Ietereeri.
22 When Joram saw Jehu, he asked him, “Do you come in peace, Jehu?” “What peace can there be with so much prostitution and witchcraft caused by your mother Jezebel?” Jehu replied.
Na, i te kitenga o Iehorama i a Iehu, ka mea ia, He pai ranei, e Iehu? Ano ra ko ia, He pai aha, i te hanga e hua tonu ana nga moepuku me nga mahi makutu a tou whaea, a Ietepere?
23 Joram turned around and raced away, shouting out to Ahaziah, “It's treason, Ahaziah!”
Na ka huri nga ringa o Iehorama, a rere ana, me te karanga ano ki a Ahatia, He kopeka, e Ahatia!
24 Jehu picked up his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow went through his heart and he collapsed dead in his chariot.
Na kumea ana e Iehu tana kopere ki tona kaha katoa, a perea ana a Iehorama ki waenga pu o ona ringa, a puta atu ana te pere i tona ngakau, a hinga iho ana ia i roto i tona hariata.
25 Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Pick him up and throw him into the field of Naboth from Jezreel. Remember when you and I were riding together behind his father Ahab how the Lord made this prophecy against him:
Katahi ka mea a Iehu ki a Pirikara, ki tana rangatira, Hikitia ake, maka atu ia ki te wahi o te mara a Napoto Ietereeri: kia mahara hoki, i to taua haerenga i runga hoiho i muri i a Ahapa, i tona papa, ka whakapikaua e Ihowa tenei pikaunga ki ru nga ki a ia;
26 ‘In the same way as I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons yesterday, says the Lord, so I will certainly repay you on this same plot of ground, says the Lord.’ Now then, following what the Lord has said, pick him up and throw him on the plot of ground.”
I kitea putia e ahau inanahi nga toto o Napoto, me nga toto o ana tama, e ai ta Ihowa; a ka utua koe e ahau ki tenei wahi, e ai ta Ihowa. Na reira, tikina, maka ia ki taua wahi whenua, kia rite ki te kupu a Ihowa.
27 When Ahaziah, king of Judah, saw what happened, he raced up the road toward Beth-haggan. But Jehu chased after him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the way up to Gur, near Ibleam. He managed to escape to Megiddo but he died there.
Otiia, i te kitenga o Ahatia kingi o Hura i tenei, rere ana ia na te ara o te whare kari. Na whaia ana ia e Iehu, a i mea tera, Patua ano hoki ia i runga i te hariata; na patua ana ia e ratou i te pikitanga ki Kuru, ki tera i te taha o Ipereama. Na rere ana ia ki Mekiro, a mate iho ki reira.
28 His servants took him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his forefathers in his tomb in the City of David.
Na kawea ana ia e ana tangata i runga i te hariata ki Hiruharama, a tanumia ana ki tona urupa, ki ona matua i te pa o Rawiri.
29 Ahaziah became king of Judah in the eleventh year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab.
No te tekau ma tahi o nga tau o Iorama tama a Ahapa i kingi ai a Ahatia ki Hura.
30 When Jezebel heard that Jehu had arrived in Jezreel, she put on her black eye-shadow, placed jewelry in her hair, and watched from a window.
Na, i te haerenga o Iehu ki Ietereere, ka rongo a Ietepere; na ka pania e ia ona kanohi, a ka tino whakapaipaitia tona mahunga, a ka titiro atu ia i te matapihi.
31 As Jehu came in through the gate, she shouted down, “Do you come in peace? Or are you like Zimri, a murderer of your master?”
Na, i a Iehu e tomo mai ana i te kuwaha, ka mea tera, He rongo mau ranei, e koe, e te Timiri, e te kaikohuru i tou ariki?
32 Jehu looked up at the window and shouted out, “Who is on my side? Anyone?” Two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
Na ka maranga ake tona mata ki te matapihi, ka mea, Ko wai toku? ko wai ra? Na ka titiro iho etahi unaka, tokorua, tokotoru, ki a ia.
33 “Throw her down!” he shouted. And they threw her down. Her blood spattered on the wall and on the horses which then trampled her.
Na ka mea ia, Maka iho ia ki raro. Heoi maka iho ana e ratou; a parati ana etahi o ona toto ki te pakitara, a ki runga hoki ki nga hoiho; a takahia ana ia e ia ki raro ki ona waewae.
34 Jehu went inside and ate and drank. Then he said, “Please deal with that cursed woman and bury her, for she was a king's daughter.”
Na haere ana ia ki roto, kei te kai, kei te inu; a ka mea ia, Tena tirohia te wahine kua kanga nei, a tanumia ia: he tamahine kingi hoki ia.
35 They went out to bury her but all they found were her skull, her feet, and her hands.
Na haere ana ratou ki te tanu i a ia; otiia kahore he wahi ona i kitea e ratou, ko te angaanga anake, ko nga waewae, ko nga kapu o ona ringa.
36 They went back and told Jehu, who said, “This is what the Lord said through his servant Elijah the Tishbite: ‘Dogs will eat Jezebel's flesh on the plot of ground at Jezreel.
No reira hoki ana ratou, a ka korero ki a ia. A ka mea ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, i korerotia ra e tana pononga, e Iraia Tihipi, i mea ra ia, Hei te wahi o Ietereere kainga ai e nga kuri nga kikokiko o Ietepere.
37 Jezebel's body will lie like manure in the field on the plot of ground at Jezreel, so that no one can say: This is where Jezebel is buried.’”
A ka waiho te tinana o Ietepere hei para hamiti ki runga ki te mate o te parae i te wahi o Ietereere; a kahore e kiia, Ko Ietepere tenei.
