2 Kings 10
1 Ahab had nowe seuentie sonnes in Samaria. And Iehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria vnto the rulers of Izreel, and to the Elders, and to the bringers vp of Ahabs children, to this effect,
Na rĩrĩ, Samaria kwarĩ na ariũ a nyũmba ya Ahabu mĩrongo mũgwanja. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehu akĩandĩka marũa akĩmatũma Samaria kũrĩ anene a Jezireeli, na athuuri, na areri a ciana cia Ahabu, akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
2 Nowe when this letter commeth to you, (for ye haue with you your masters sonnes, yee haue with you both charets and horses, and a defenced citie, and armour)
“Tondũ mũrĩ na ciana cia mwathi wanyu, na ningĩ mũrĩ na ngaari cia ita na mbarathi, na itũũra inene rĩirigĩre na thingo cia hinya, o na indo cia mbaara-rĩ, marũa maya maamũkinyĩra-rĩ,
3 Consider therefore which of your masters sonnes is best and most meete, and set him on his fathers throne, and fight for your masters house.
thuurai mũriũ ũrĩa mwega na mwagĩrĩru mũno wa mwathi wanyu, na mũmũikarĩrie gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gĩa ithe. Mũcooke mũrũĩrĩre nyũmba ya mwathi wanyu.”
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and saide, Behold two Kings coulde not stande before him, how shall we then stand?
No-o makĩmaka makiuga atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo athamaki eerĩ matiigana kũmũtooria-rĩ, ithuĩ twakĩhota atĩa?”
5 And he that was gouernour of Ahabs house, and he that ruled the citie, and the Elders, and the bringers vp of the children sent to Iehu, saying, We are thy seruants, and will doe all that thou shalt bid vs: we will make no King: do what seemeth good to thee.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũrĩa warĩ mũrori wa maũndũ ma nyũmba ya ũthamaki, na mwathi wa itũũra, na athuuri, na areri a ciana magĩtũmĩra Jehu ndũmĩrĩri ĩno: “Ithuĩ tũrĩ ndungata ciaku, na nĩtũgwĩka ũrĩa wothe ũkuuga. Tũtiigũtua mũndũ o na ũmwe mũthamaki; wee ĩka o ũrĩa ũngĩona kwagĩrĩire.”
6 Then he wrote another letter to them, saying, If ye be mine, and wil obey my voyce, take the heads of ye men that are your masters sonnes, and come to me to Izreel by to morowe this time. (Nowe the Kings sonnes, euen seuentie persons were with the great men of the citie, which brought them vp)
Nake Jehu akĩmaandĩkĩra marũa ma keerĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo mũrĩ mwena wakwa na nĩmũkũnjathĩkĩra, ũragai ariũ a mwathi wanyu, mũgooka na ciongo ciao gũkũ Jezireeli ihinda o ta rĩĩrĩ rũciũ.” Na rĩrĩ, ariũ a mũthamaki mĩrongo mũgwanja maarĩ na atongoria a itũũra arĩa maamareraga.
7 And when the letter came to them, they tooke the Kings sonnes, and slewe the seuentie persons, and layde their heads in baskets, and sent them vnto him to Izreel.
Na rĩrĩa marũa maakinyire, andũ acio makĩnyiita ariũ acio mĩrongo mũgwanja a mũthamaki na makĩmooraga othe. Magĩĩkĩra ciongo ciao ikabũ-inĩ, magĩcitwarĩra Jehu o kũu Jezireeli.
8 Then there came a messenger and tolde him, saying, They haue brought the heads of the Kings sonnes. And he sayd, Let them lay them on two heapes at the entring in of the gate vntil the morning.
Rĩrĩa mũndũ ũrĩa watũmĩtwo aakinyire, akĩĩra Jehu atĩrĩ, “Nĩmarehe ciongo cia ciana cia mũthamaki.” Nake Jehu agĩathana, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ciigei irũndo igĩrĩ itoonyero-inĩ rĩa itũũra o nginya rũciinĩ.”
9 And when it was day, he went out, and stood and sayd to all the people, Ye be righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?
Rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ Jehu akiumagara. Akĩrũgama mbere ya andũ othe, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũtihĩtĩtie. Niĩ nĩ niĩ ndaciirĩire ndundu ya gũũkĩrĩra mwathi wakwa na ngĩmũũraga, no nũũ ũragĩte andũ aya othe?
10 Knowe nowe that there shall fall vnto the earth nothing of the word of the Lord, which the Lord spake concerning the house of Ahab: for the Lord hath brought to passe the things that hee spake by his seruant Eliiah.
Menyai ũũ, atĩ gũtirĩ kiugo o na kĩmwe kĩarĩtio nĩ Jehova igũrũ rĩa nyũmba ya Ahabu gĩtakahingio. Jehova ekĩte o ũrĩa oigĩte na kanua ka ndungata yake Elija.”
11 So Iehu slew al that remained of the house of Ahab in Izreel, and all that were great with him, and his familiars and his priestes, so that he let none of his remaine.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehu akĩũraga andũ othe a nyũmba ya Ahabu arĩa maatigaire kũu Jezireeli, o ũndũ ũmwe na atongoria ake othe, na arata ake a hakuhĩ, o na athĩnjĩri-ngai ake, na gũtirĩ mũndũ wahonokire.
12 And he arose, and departed and came to Samaria. And as Iehu was in the way by an house where the shepheards did shere,
Jehu agĩcooka akiumagara, agĩthiĩ Samaria. Aakinya Bethi-Ekedi ya Arĩithi-rĩ,
13 He met with the brethre of Ahaziah king of Iudah, and sayd, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah, and goe downe to salute the children of the King and the children of the Queene.
agĩtũngana na andũ amwe arĩa maatarainie na Ahazia mũthamaki wa Juda akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũrĩ a?” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũrĩ a nyũmba ya Ahazia, na tũũkĩte kũgeithia mbarĩ ya mũthamaki, na ya mũtumia wa mũthamaki.”
14 And he sayde, Take them aliue. And they tooke them aliue, and slew them at the well beside the house where the sheepe are shorne, euen two and fourtie men, and he left not one of them.
Nake agĩathana atĩrĩ, “Nĩmanyiitwo marĩ muoyo!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmatwara marĩ muoyo makĩmooragĩra gĩthima-inĩ kĩa Bethi-Ekedi, maarĩ andũ mĩrongo ĩna na eerĩ. Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wahonokire.
15 And when he was departed thence, hee met with Iehonadab the sonne of Rechab comming to meete him, and he blessed him, and sayde to him, Is thine heart vpright, as mine heart is towarde thine? And Iehonadab answered, Yea, doubtlesse. Then giue me thine hande. And when he had giuen him his hande, he tooke him vp to him into the charet.
Nake aarĩkia kuuma kũu, agĩkora Jehonadabu mũrũ wa Rekabu, o nake okĩte kũmũtũnga. Nake Jehu akĩmũgeithia, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ na ũiguano na niĩ, o ta ũrĩa ndĩ na ũiguano nawe?” Nake Jehonadabu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ ndĩ naguo.” Nake Jehu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kũngĩkorwo nĩ ũguo-rĩ, rehe guoko.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehonadabu agĩĩka ũguo, nake Jehu akĩmũteithĩrĩria kũhaica ngaari-inĩ ya ita.
16 And he sayde, Come with me, and see the zeale that I haue for the Lord: so they made him ride in his charet.
Nake Jehu akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka tũthiĩ nawe ũkeonere ũrĩa ndĩĩrutanĩirie na kĩyo nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova.” Nake akĩmũkuua na ngaari yake ya ita.
17 And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained vnto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the worde of the Lord, which he spake to Eliiah.
Rĩrĩa Jehu aakinyire Samaria-rĩ, akĩũraga andũ othe a nyũmba ya Ahabu arĩa maatigaire, akĩmaniina kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ Elija.
18 Then Iehu assembled all the people, and sayd vnto them, Ahab serued Baal a litle, but Iehu shall serue him much more.
Ningĩ Jehu agĩcookereria andũ othe hamwe, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ahabu aatungatĩire Baali o hanini; no Jehu ekũmũtungatĩra makĩria.
19 Now therefore call vnto me all ye prophets of Baal, all his seruants, and all his priests, and let not a man be lacking: for I haue a great sacrifice for Baal: whosoeuer is lacking, he shall not liue. But Iehu did it by a subtiltie to destroy ye seruats of Baal.
Na rĩrĩ, tũmanĩrai anabii othe a Baali, na atungati othe ayo, o na athĩnjĩri-ngai ayo othe. Tigĩrĩrai atĩ gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũtarĩ ho, tondũ nĩngũrutĩra Baali igongona inene. Mũndũ wothe ũkwaga gũũka, ndegũtũũra muoyo.” Nowe Jehu ekaga ũguo arĩ na wara wa kũũraga atungati othe a Baali.
20 And Iehu sayd, Proclaime a solemne assemblie for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
Nake Jehu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩtanai kĩũngano gĩa gũtĩĩithia Baali.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩkĩanĩrĩra kĩũngano kĩu.
21 So Iehu sent vnto all Israel, and all the seruants of Baal came, and there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was full from ende to ende.
Nake agĩcooka agĩtũma ũhoro kũndũ guothe Isiraeli, nao atungati othe a Baali magĩũka; na gũtirĩ o na ũmwe watĩĩrire. Makĩgomana hekarũ-inĩ ya Baali o nginya ĩkĩiyũra kuuma mwena ũmwe nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ.
22 Then he said vnto him that had the charge of the vestrie, Bring forth vestments for al the seruants of Baal. And he brought the out vestments.
Nake Jehu akĩĩra mũikaria wa harĩa nguo ciaigagwo atĩrĩ, “Rehere ndungata ciothe cia Baali nguo.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩcirehere nguo.
23 And when Iehu went, and Iehonadab the sonne of Rechab into the house of Baal, he sayde vnto the seruants of Baal, Searche diligently, and looke, lest there be here with you any of the seruants of the Lord, but the seruants of Baal only.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehu na Jehonadabu mũrũ wa Rekabu magĩtoonya hekarũ ya Baali. Jehu akĩĩra ndungata cia Baali atĩrĩ, “Rorai mĩena yothe muone atĩ gũtirĩ ndungata cia Jehova irĩ haha hamwe na inyuĩ, o tiga ndungata cia Baali.”
24 And when they went in to make sacrifice and burnt offering, Iehu appoynted foure score men without, and sayd, If any of the men whome I haue brought into your hands, escape, his soule shalbe for his soule.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtoonya marute magongona, na maruta ma njino. Na rĩrĩ, Jehu nĩaigĩte arũme mĩrongo ĩnana kũu nja akameera atĩrĩ: “Ũmwe wanyu angĩrekereria mũndũ wa arĩa ngũneana moko-inĩ manyu oore-rĩ, we egũkua ithenya rĩa mũndũ ũcio.”
25 And when hee had made an ende of the burnt offring, Iehu sayde to the garde, and to the captaines, Goe in, slay them, let not a man come out. And they smote them with the edge of the sworde. And the garde, and the captaines cast them out, and went vnto the citie, where was the temple of Baal.
Rĩrĩa Jehu aarĩkirie kũruta igongona rĩa njino-rĩ, agĩatha arangĩri na anene ao atĩrĩ, “Toonyai thĩinĩ mũmoorage; mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũmwe wao oore.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmooraga na hiũ cia njora. Nao arangĩri na anene ao magĩikia mĩĩrĩ yao nja, magĩcooka magĩtoonya ihooero rĩa na thĩinĩ rĩa hekarũ ya Baali.
26 And they brought out the images of the temple of Baal, and burnt them.
Nao makĩruta ihiga rĩrĩa rĩamũre nja ya hekarũ ya Baali na makĩrĩcina.
27 And they destroyed the image of Baal, and threwe downe the house of Baal, and made a iakes of it vnto this day.
Makĩmomora ihiga rĩrĩa rĩamũre rĩa Baali, na magĩtharia hekarũ ya Baali makĩmĩtua kĩoro o na nginya ũmũthĩ.
28 So Iehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehu akĩniina biũ ũhooi wa Baali thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli.
29 But from the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat which made Israel to sinne, Iehu departed not from them, neither from the golden calues that were in Beth-el and that were in Dan.
No rĩrĩ, ndaatiganire na mehia ma Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati, marĩa aatũmire Isiraeli meehie ma kũhooya mĩhianano ya njaũ ya thahabu kũu Betheli na Dani.
30 And the Lord sayde vnto Iehu, Because thou hast diligently executed that which was right in mine eyes, and hast done vnto the house of Ahab according to all things that were in mine heart, therefore shall thy sonnes vnto the fourth generation sit on the throne of Israel.
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Jehu atĩrĩ, “Tondũ nĩwĩkĩte wega, ũkahingia ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ makwa, na ũgeeka nyũmba ya Ahabu ũrĩa ndaatanyĩte kũmeka-rĩ, njiaro ciaku igũtũũra ithamakagĩra Isiraeli nginya rũciaro rwa kana.”
31 But Iehu regarded not to walke in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: for hee departed not from the sinnes of Ieroboam, which made Israel to sinne.
No Jehu ndaigana kũmenyerera kũiga watho wa Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, na ngoro yake yothe. Ndaigana gũtigana na mehia ma Jeroboamu, marĩa atũmĩte andũ a Isiraeli mehie.
32 In those dayes the Lord began to lothe Israel, and Hazael smote them in all the coastes of Israel,
Matukũ-inĩ macio, Jehova nĩambĩrĩirie kũnyiihia mĩhaka ya Isiraeli. Hazaeli nĩatooririe andũ a Isiraeli bũrũri-inĩ wao wothe
33 From Iorden Eastward, euen all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and them that were of Manasseh, from Aroer (which is by the riuer Arnon) and Gilead and Bashan.
mwena wa irathĩro wa Jorodani na bũrũri-inĩ wothe wa Gileadi, (Bũrũri wa Gadi na Rubeni na Manase), kuuma Aroeri gũtwarana na mũkuru wa Arinoni, kũgerera Gileadi nginya Bashani.
34 Concerning the rest of the actes of Iehu, and all that he did, and all his valiant deedes, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehu-rĩ, na marĩa mothe eekire, na marĩa mothe ahingirie-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Isiraeli?
35 And Iehu slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in Samaria, and Iehoahaz his sonne reigned in his stead.
Nake Jehu akĩhurũka na maithe make na agĩthikwo Samaria. Nake mũriũ Jehoahazu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
36 And the time that Iehu reigned ouer Israel in Samaria is eight and twentie yeeres.
Narĩo ihinda rĩrĩa Jehu aathamakĩire Isiraeli kũu Samaria rĩarĩ mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩnana.
