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.
Wòlíì Eliṣa fi àṣẹ pe ọkùnrin kan láti ẹgbẹ́ àwọn wòlíì, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ki agbádá rẹ sínú ọ̀já àmùrè rẹ, gba ṣágo kékeré òróró yìí pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí o sì lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi.
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,
Nígbà tí o bá dé bẹ̀, wá Jehu ọmọ Jehoṣafati, ọmọ Nimṣi kiri. Lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ rẹ̀, mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀, kí o sì mú un wọ inú yàrá lọ́hùn ún lọ.
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!”
Nígbà náà, mú ṣágo kékeré yìí, kí o sì da òróró náà lé e lórí, kí o sì wí pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli.”’ Nígbà náà, ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, kí o sì sáré, má ṣe jáfara!”
4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà, wòlíì náà lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi.
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.
Nígbà tí ó dé, ó rí àwọn olórí ẹgbẹ́ ọmọ-ogun tí wọ́n jókòó papọ̀. “Èmi ní iṣẹ́ fún ọ, olórí,” Ó wí. “Sí ta ni nínú wa?” Jehu béèrè. Òun sì wí pé, “Sí ọ, balógun,” Ó dáhùn.
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.
Jehu dìde sókè, ó sì wọ inú ilé lọ. Nígbà náà, wòlíì náà da òróró náà sórí Jehu; ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: ‘Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa Israẹli.
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.
Kí ìwọ kí ó pa ilé Ahabu ọ̀gá à rẹ̀ run, Èmi yóò sì gbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi wòlíì àti gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa tí a ta sílẹ̀ látọwọ́ ọ Jesebeli.
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.
Gbogbo ilé Ahabu yóò ṣègbé. Èmi yóò gé e kúrò láti orí Ahabu gbogbo ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó gbẹ̀yìn ni Israẹli, ẹrú tàbí òmìnira.
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.
Èmi yóò ṣe ilé Ahabu gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati àti ilé Baaṣa ọmọ Ahijah.
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.
Fún Jesebeli, ajá ni yóò jẹ ẹ́ ní oko Jesreeli, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò sin òkú rẹ̀.’” Nígbà náà ó ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, ó sì sálọ.
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.
Nígbà tí Jehu jáde lọ bá àwọn ọgbà ìjòyè e rẹ̀, ọ̀kan nínú wọn sì bi í pé, “Ṣé gbogbo nǹkan dára?” Kí ni ó dé tí aṣiwèrè fi tọ̀ ọ́ wá, “Ìwọ mọ ọkùnrin náà àti irú nǹkan tí ó ń sọ,” Jehu fèsì.
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.’”
“Ìyẹn kì í ṣe òótọ́!” Wọ́n wí. “Sọ fún wa.” Jehu wí, “Èyí ni ohun tí ó sọ fún mi: ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli.”’”
13 They quickly grabbed their cloaks and spread them on the bare steps. They blew the trumpet and shouted, “Jehu is king!”
Wọ́n ṣe gírí, wọ́n sì mú agbádá a wọn, wọ́n sì tàn wọ́n sí abẹ́ rẹ̀ ní orí àtẹ̀gùn. Nígbà náà, wọ́n fọn ìpè, wọ́n sì kígbe, “Jehu jẹ ọba!”
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu ọmọ Jehoṣafati, ọmọ Nimṣi, dìtẹ̀ sí Joramu. (Nísinsin yìí Joramu àti gbogbo Israẹli ti ń dáàbò bo Ramoti Gileadi nítorí Hasaeli ọba Aramu.
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.”
ṣùgbọ́n ọba Joramu ti padà sí Jesreeli láti lọ sàn nínú ọgbẹ́ tí àwọn ará Aramu ti dá sí i lára nínú ogun pẹ̀lú ọba Hasaeli ti Aramu.) Jehu wí pé, “Tí èyí bá jẹ́ ọ̀nà tí ò ń rò, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkankan kí ó yọ jáde nínú ìlú ńlá láti lọ sọ ìròyìn náà ní Jesreeli.”
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.
Nígbà náà Jehu wọ inú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì gùn ún lọ sí Jesreeli, nítorí Joramu ń sinmi níbẹ̀ àti Ahasiah ọba Juda sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti wá wò Joramu.
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?’”
Nígbà tí olùṣọ́ kan tí ó dúró ní ilé ìṣọ́ ní Jesreeli, rí ọ̀wọ́ ogun Jehu tí wọ́n ń súnmọ́ tòsí, ó pè jáde, “Mo rí àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun tí ó ń bọ̀.” “Mú ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin kan,” Joramu pa á láṣẹ. “Rán an lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn kí o sì béèrè pé, ‘Ṣé ẹ̀yin wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?’”
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.”
Ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin náà, lọ láti lọ bá Jehu ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí ọba wí: ‘Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?’” “Kí ni ìwọ ní ṣe pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?” Jehu sì dáhùn. “Bọ́ sí ẹ̀yìn mi.” Olùṣọ́ náà sì wí fún un pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ náà ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n kò tún padà wá mọ́.”
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.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ọba rán ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin kejì. Nígbà náà ó wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ó wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí ọba sọ: “Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?” Jehu dáhùn, “Dúró sí ẹ̀yìn mi.”
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!”
Olùṣọ́ náà sì fi sùn. “Ó ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n kò tún padà wá mọ́ pẹ̀lú. Wíwá rẹ̀ sì dàbí ti Jehu ọmọ Nimṣi, ó ń wa kẹ̀kẹ́ bí ti aṣiwèrè.”
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.
“Fi ìwọ̀ kọ́ kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun mi.” Joramu pa á láṣẹ. Àti nígbà tí a fi kọ́, Joramu ọba Israẹli àti Ahasiah ọba Juda, gun kẹ̀kẹ́ lọ, olúkúlùkù nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun tirẹ̀, láti lọ bá Jehu. Wọ́n bá a pàdé ní ibi oko tí ó ti jẹ́ ti Naboti ará Jesreeli.
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.
Nígbà tí Joramu rí Jehu, ó béèrè pé, “Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà, Jehu?” “Báwo ni àlàáfíà yóò ṣe wà,” Jehu dáhùn, “Ní ìwọ̀n ìgbà tí gbogbo ìbọ̀rìṣà àti iṣẹ́ àjẹ́ ti màmá rẹ Jesebeli di púpọ̀?”
23 Joram turned around and raced away, shouting out to Ahaziah, “It's treason, Ahaziah!”
Joramu yí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ padà, ó sì sálọ, ó sì ń pe Ahasiah, “Ọ̀tẹ̀ dé, Ahasiah!”
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.
Nígbà náà, Jehu fa ọrun rẹ̀, ó sì yin Joramu láàrín èjìká méjèèjì. Ọfà náà sì wọ inú ọkàn rẹ̀, ó sì ṣubú lulẹ̀ láti orí kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀.
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:
Jehu sọ fún Bidikari, balógun kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ pé, “Gbé e sókè kí ó sì jù ú sí orí oko tí ó jẹ́ ti Naboti ará Jesreeli. Rántí bí èmi àti ìwọ ti ń gun kẹ̀kẹ́ papọ̀ lẹ́yìn Ahabu baba à rẹ nígbà tí Olúwa sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa rẹ̀,
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.”
‘Ní àná, mo rí ẹ̀jẹ̀ Naboti pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin, ni Olúwa wí.’ Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà, ẹ gbé e sókè, kí o sì jù ú sí orí ilẹ̀ oko náà ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.”
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.
Nígbà tí Ahasiah ọba, Juda rí ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀, ó sálọ sójú ọ̀nà sí Beti-Haggani. Jehu sì lépa rẹ̀, ó ń kígbe, “Pa á pẹ̀lú!” Wọ́n ṣá a ní ọgbẹ́ nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ ní ọ̀nà lọ sí Guri lẹ́bàá a Ibleamu, ṣùgbọ́n ó sálọ sí Megido, ó sì kú síbẹ̀.
28 His servants took him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his forefathers in his tomb in the City of David.
Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì gbé e pẹ̀lú kẹ̀kẹ́ lọ sí Jerusalẹmu, ó sì sin ín pẹ̀lú, baba a rẹ̀ nínú ibojì rẹ̀ ní ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi.
29 Ahaziah became king of Judah in the eleventh year of the reign of Joram, son of Ahab.
(Ní ọdún kọkànlá ti Joramu ọmọ Ahabu, Ahasiah ti di ọba Juda.)
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.
Nígbà náà Jehu lọ sí Jesreeli. Nígbà tí Jesebeli gbọ́ nípa rẹ̀, ó kun ojú u rẹ̀, ó to irun rẹ̀, ó sì wò jáde láti ojú fèrèsé.
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?”
Bí Jehu ti wọ ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn, ó béèrè, “Ṣé ìwọ wá ní àlàáfíà, Simri, ìwọ olùpa ọ̀gá à rẹ?”
32 Jehu looked up at the window and shouted out, “Who is on my side? Anyone?” Two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
Ó gbójú sókè láti wo fèrèsé, ó sì pè jáde, “Ta ni ó wà ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ mi? Ta ni?” Ìwẹ̀fà méjì tàbí mẹ́ta bojú wò ó nílẹ̀.
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.
Jehu sọ wí pé, “Gbé e jù sílẹ̀!” Wọ́n sì jù ú sílẹ̀. Díẹ̀ nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sì fọ́n sí ara ògiri àti àwọn ẹṣin bí wọ́n ti tẹ̀ ẹ́ mọ́lẹ̀ lábẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ wọn.
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.”
Jehu wọ inú ilé lọ, ó jẹ, ó sì mu. “Tọ́jú obìnrin yẹn tí a fi bú,” Ó wí, “Kí o sì sin ín, nítorí ọmọbìnrin ọba ni ó jẹ́.”
35 They went out to bury her but all they found were her skull, her feet, and her hands.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n jáde lọ láti lọ sin ín, wọn kò rí nǹkan kan àyàfi agbárí i rẹ̀, ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ méjèèjì àti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì.
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.
Wọ́n padà lọ sọ fún Jehu, ẹni tí ó wí pé, “Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó sọ nípasẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wí pé, ‘Ní orí oko Jesreeli ni àwọn ajá yóò ti jẹ ẹran-ara Jesebeli.
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.’”
Òkú Jesebeli yóò dàbí ohun ẹ̀gbin ní orí oko Jesreeli, dé bi pé, ẹnikẹ́ni kì yóò lè sọ pé, “Jesebeli ni èyí.”’”
