< 2 Kings 10 >

1 And Ahab has seventy sons in Samaria, and Jehu writes letters, and sends [them] to Samaria, to the heads of Jezreel, the elderly, and to those supporting Ahab, saying,
Ahab ca rhoek he Samaria ah sawmrhih om. Te dongah Jehu loh ca a daek tih Samaria la a pat. Jezreel kah mangpa a ham rhoek neh Ahab aka tangnah rhoek taengah,
2 “And now, at the coming in of this letter to you, and sons of your lord [are] with you, and the chariots and the horses, and a fortified city, and the armor, [are] with you,
Tahae ah he kah ca loh nangmih taeng neh nangmih taengkah na boei ca rhoek taengah ha pawk vanbangla nangmih taengah leng neh marhang, khopuei hmuencak neh lungpok haica khaw om lah ko.
3 that you have seen the best and the most upright of the sons of your lord, and have set [him] on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your lord.”
Na boei ca rhoek khui lamloh a thuem neh a then te hmu uh laeh. A napa kah ngolkhoel dongah ngol sak uh lamtah na boei rhoek imkhui ham vathoh uh,” a ti nah.
4 And they fear very greatly, and say, “Behold, the two kings have not stood before him, and how do we stand—we?”
Tedae bahoeng, bahoeng a rhih uh dongah, “Manghai rhoi pataeng a mikhmuh ah a pai ngoeng pawt vaengah mamih metlae m'pai eh he,” a ti uh.
5 And he who [is] over the house, and he who [is] over the city, and the elderly, and those supporting, send to Jehu, saying, “We [are] your servants, and all that you say to us we do; we do not make anyone king—do that which [is] good in your eyes.”
Te dongah im hman kah neh khopuei kah khaw, a hamca rhoek neh a tangnah rhoek te Jehu taengla a tueih tih, “Kaimih he namah kah sal rhoek ni. Te dongah kaimih taengah na thui bangla boeih ka ngai uh ni. Hlang pakhat khaw ka manghai sak uh pawt dongah na mik ah then na ti bangla saii,” a ti nauh.
6 And he writes a letter to them a second time, saying, “If you [are] for me, and are listening to my voice, take the heads of the men—the sons of your lord, and come to me about this time tomorrow, to Jezreel”; and the sons of the king [are] seventy men, with the great ones of the city—those bringing them up.
Te dongah amih ham a pabae la ca a daek pah tih, “Kai taengah na om uh tih kai ol te na ngai uh atah na boei ca rhoek kah hlang lu te hang khuen uh. Thangvuen tahae tue ah tah Jezreel ah kai taengla ha pawk uh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah amih manghai ca rhoek hlang sawmrhih tah khopuei kah hlang len rhoek taengah pantai uh.
7 And it comes to pass, at the coming in of the letter to them, that they take the sons of the king, and slaughter seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and send [them] to him at Jezreel,
Ca te amih taengla a pha van neh manghai ca rhoek te a tuuk uh tih hlang sawmrhih a ngawn uh. A lu te vaihang dongah a sang uh tih Jehu taengah Jezreel la a pat uh.
8 and the messenger comes in, and declares [it] to him, saying, “They have brought in the heads of the sons of the king,” and he says, “Make them two heaps at the opening of the gate until the morning.”
Puencawn a pawk vaengah tah a taengla a puen pah tih, “Manghai ca rhoek kah lu te hang khuen uh coeng,” a ti nah. Te dongah, “Te rhoek te vongka kah thohka ah mincang hil hlop nit la hmoek uh,” a ti nah.
9 And it comes to pass in the morning, that he goes out, and stands, and says to all the people, “You are righteous; behold, I have conspired against my lord, and slay him—and who struck all these?
Te dongah mincang a pha neh a paan tih a pai thil. Te phoeiah, “Pilnam cungkuem ham na dueng coeng, kai tah ka boei te ka taeng tih amah ka ngawn coeng he, tedae he rhoek boeih he unim aka ngawn?
10 Now you know that nothing falls of the word of YHWH to the earth that YHWH spoke against the house of Ahab, and YHWH has done that which He spoke by the hand of His servant Elijah.”
BOEIPA loh Ahab imkhui ham a thui vanbangla BOEIPA ol tah diklai la a rhul pawt te ming uh laeh. BOEIPA loh a sal Elijah kut dongah a thui te a saii coeng,” a ti.
11 And Jehu strikes all those left to the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances, and his priests, until he has not left a remnant to him.
Jezreel kah Ahab im ah aka sueng boeih neh a tanglue boeih, anih aka ming neh a khosoih rhoek khaw a taengah rhaengnaeng a hlun pawt hil ah Jehu loh a ngawn.
12 And he rises, and comes in and goes to Samaria; he [is] at the shepherds’ shearing-house in the way,
Te phoeiah thoo tih Samaria la aka paan Betheked longpuei ah cet.
13 and Jehu has found the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah and says, “Who [are] you?” And they say, “We [are] brothers of Ahaziah, and we go down to greet the sons of the king and the sons of the mistress.”
Jehu te Judah manghai Ahaziah kah pacaboeina neh a hum vaengah tah, “Nangmih he unim,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Kaimih he Ahaziah kah pacaboeina rhoek ni, manghai ca rhoek neh manghainu koca rhoek taengah rhoepnah ham ka suntla,” a ti uh.
14 And he says, “Catch them alive”; and they catch them alive, and slaughter them at the pit of the shearing-house, forty-two men, and he has not left [even one] man of them.
Tedae, “Amih te a hing la tu uh,” a ti nah dongah amih te a hing la a tuuk uh. Te phoeiah amih te hlang sawmli panit la Betheked tuito ah a ngawn uh tih amih te hlang pakhat klhaw sueng pawh.
15 And he goes there, and finds Jehonadab son of Rechab to meet him, and blesses him, and says to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart [is] with your heart?” And Jehonadab says, “It is.” “Then it is; give your hand”; and he gives his hand, and he causes him to come up into the chariot to him,
Te lamloh a nong van neh anih aka doe Rekhab capa Jehonadab te a hmuh. Te vaengah anih te a uem tih, “Ka thinko he na thinko soah a voelphoeng bangla na thinko te a thuem la om maco,” a ti nah. Jehonadab loh, “Om,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah, “A om atah na kut te n'doe,” a ti nah. Te dongah a kut te a doe tih anih te leng dongah a luei sak.
16 and says, “Come with me, and look on my zeal for YHWH”; and they cause him to ride in his chariot.
Te phoeiah, “Kai taengah pongpa lamtah BOEIPA ham ka thatlainah he hmu lah,” a ti nah dongah anih te a leng dongah a ngol sak.
17 And he comes to Samaria, and strikes all those left to Ahab in Samaria, until his destroying him, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke to Elisha.
Samaria a pha van neh Ahab lamkah aka sueng boeih te a ngawn. Elijah taengah a thui BOEIPA ol bangla Ahab te a milh hil Samaria ah a saii.
18 And Jehu gathers the whole of the people and says to them, “Ahab served Ba‘al a little—Jehu serves him much:
Jehu loh pilnam pum te a coi tih amih taengah, “Ahab loh Baal taengah bet tho a thueng dae Jehu loh anah la tho a thueng ni.
19 and now, all the prophets of Ba‘al, all his servants, and all his priests, call to me; do not let a man be lacking, for I have a great sacrifice for Ba‘al; everyone who is lacking—he does not live”; and Jehu has done [it] in subtlety, in order to destroy the servants of Ba‘al.
Te dongah Baal kah tonghma boeih neh a taengah tho aka thueng boeih, a khosoih boeih khaw kai taengla khue uh laeh, hlang hmaai boeh. Baal hamla hmueih len ka khueh dongah a hmaai boeih te tah hing mahpawh,” a ti nah. Tedae Baal kah thothueng rhoek te milh sak ham ni Jehu loh rhaithinah neh a saii.
20 And Jehu says, “Sanctify a restraint for Ba‘al”; and they proclaim [it].
Jehu loh, “Baal hamla pahong khohnin hoep uh,” a ti nah dongah a hoe pauh.
21 And Jehu sends into all Israel, and all the servants of Ba‘al come in, and there has not been left a man who has not come in; and they come into the house of Ba‘al, and the house of Ba‘al is full—mouth to mouth.
Jehu loh Israel pum te a tah dongah Baal kah thothueng rhoek tah boeih pawk uh. Aka pawk pawt hlang te a hmaai uh pawt dongah Baal im la kun uh tih Baal im ah khatben lamloh khatben hil bae uh.
22 And he says to him who [is] over the wardrobe, “Bring out clothing for all those serving Ba‘al”; and he brings out the clothing to them.
Hnikhoem te khaw, “Baal kah thothueng rhoek boeih ham pueinak hang khuen pah,” a ti nah dongah amih ham te hnicu a khuen pah.
23 And Jehu goes in—and Jehonadab son of Rechab—to the house of Ba‘al, and says to the servants of Ba‘al, “Search and see, lest there be [any] from the servants of YHWH here with you—but [only] the servants of Ba‘al by themselves.”
Te phoeiah Jehu neh Rekhab capa Jehonadab te Baal im la cet. Te vaengah Baal thothueng rhoek te, “Thuep uh lamtah so uh dae, nangmih taengah he Yahweh kah sal rhoek om ve “a ti nah. Tedae amamih bueng te Baal kah thothueng la dawk a thuiuh.
24 And they come in to make sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and Jehu has set eighty men for himself in an out-place, and says, “The man who lets [any] of the men whom I am bringing into your hand escape—his soul for his soul.”
Hmueih neh hmueihhlutnah saii ham a khun phoeiah tah Jehu loh amah kah hlang sawmrhet te tol ah a khueh tih, “Nangmih kut ah kan tloeng hlang rhoek he pakhat khaw aka hlong tah a hinglu ham a hinglu ne,” a ti nah.
25 And it comes to pass, at his finishing to make the burnt-offering, that Jehu says to the runners and to the captains, “Go in, strike them, let none come out”; and they strike them by the mouth of the sword, and the runners and the captains cast [them] out; and they go to the city, to the house of Ba‘al,
Hmueihhlutnah a saii te a khah van neh Jehu loh imtawt rhoek neh boeilu rhalboei taengah, “Kun uh lamtah amih te ngawn uh, hlang pakhat khaw loeih boel saeh,” a ti nah. Amih te cunghang ha neh a ngawn uh tih a voeih uh phoeiah tah imtawt rhoek neh rhalboei rhoek khaw Baal im khopuei la kun uh.
26 and bring out the standing-pillars of the house of Ba‘al, and burn them,
Baal im kah kaam te a khuen uh tih a hoeh uh.
27 and break down the standing-pillar of Ba‘al, and break down the house of Ba‘al, and appoint it for a latrine to this day.
Baal kah kaam te a palet uh tih Baal im khaw a palet uh. Te dongah tihnin hil te te nat kah nat la a khueh uh.
28 And Jehu destroys Ba‘al out of Israel,
Jehu loh Baal te Israel khui lamkah a milh sak.
29 only [not]—the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he caused Israel to sin, Jehu has not turned aside from after them—the calves of gold that [are] at Beth-El and in Dan.
Te cakhaw Israel aka tholh sak Nebat capa Jeroboam kah tholhnah bangla Bethel neh Dan kah sui vaitoca hnuk lamloh Jehu a nong moenih.
30 And YHWH says to Jehu, “Because that you have done well, to do that which [is] right in My eyes—according to all that [is] in My heart you have done to the house of Ahab—the sons of the fourth [generation] sit on the throne of Israel for you.”
BOEIPA loh Jehu te, “Ka mikhmuh ah a thuem te saii hamla na umya coeng, ka thinko khuikah aka om boeih te Ahab imkhui ah na saii coeng. Nang lamloh khong li na ca rhoek te Israel ngolkhoel dongah ngol uh ni,” a ti nah.
31 And Jehu has not taken heed to walk in the Law of YHWH, God of Israel, with all his heart; he has not turned aside from the sins of Jeroboam that he caused Israel to sin.
Tedae Jehu loh Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah olkhueng dongah a thinko boeih neh pongpa hamla a ngaithuen moenih. Israel aka tholh sak Jeroboam kah tholhnah dong lamloh a nong moenih.
32 In those days YHWH has begun to cut off [some] in Israel, and Hazael strikes them in all the border of Israel,
Te khohnin ah Israel te kuet hamla BOEIPA a tawn uh coeng dongah ni Israel khorhi te Hazael loh a pum la a ngawn pah.
33 from the Jordan, at the sun-rising: the whole land of Gilead, of the Gadite, and the Reubenite, and the Manassite (from Aroer, that [is] by the Brook of Arnon), even Gilead and Bashan.
Khocuk Jordan lamloh Gad koca, Reuben koca neh Manasseh kah Gilead khohmuen pum, Arnon soklong kah Aroer lamloh, Gilead neh Bashan te a loh.
34 And the rest of the matters of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
Jehu kah ol noi neh a cungkuem a saii te khaw, a thadueng boeih te Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek moenih a?
35 And Jehu lies with his fathers, and they bury him in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz reigns in his stead.
Jehu te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah anih te Samaria ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Jehoahaz te anih yueng la manghai.
36 And the days that Jehu has reigned over Israel in Samaria [are] twenty-eight years.
Te vaeng tue ah Jehu loh Israel te Samaria ah kum kul kum rhet a manghai thil.
