< 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,
Nísinsin yìí, Ahabu ṣì ní àádọ́rin ọmọkùnrin ní ìdílé rẹ̀ ní Samaria. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, Jehu kọ lẹ́tà, ó sì fi wọ́n ránṣẹ́ sí Samaria: sí àwọn oníṣẹ́ Jesreeli, sí àwọn àgbàgbà àti sí àwọn olùtọ́jú àwọn ọmọ Ahabu. Ó wí pé,
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,
“Ní kété tí lẹ́tà bá ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí àwọn ọmọ ọ̀gá rẹ wà pẹ̀lú rẹ, ìwọ sì ní àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ àti àwọn ẹṣin, ìlú olódi kan pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà,
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.”
yan èyí tí ó dára àti èyí tí ó níye jùlọ nínú àwọn ọmọkùnrin ọ̀gá à rẹ, kí o sì gbé e lé orí ìtẹ́ baba a rẹ̀. Nígbà náà, kí o sì jà fún ilé ọ̀gá à rẹ.”
4 And they fear very greatly, and say, “Behold, the two kings have not stood before him, and how do we stand—we?”
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀rù bà wọ́n, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Tí ọba méjì kò bá le kojú ìjà sí i, báwo ni a ṣẹ le è ṣe é?”
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.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ẹni tí ń ṣe olórí ilé, ẹni tí ń ṣe olórí ìlú ńlá, àwọn àgbàgbà àti àwọn olùtọ́jú náà rán iṣẹ́ yìí sí Jehu, pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni àwa jẹ́ pẹ̀lú, àwa yóò ṣe ohunkóhun tí o bá sọ. Àwa kì yóò yan ẹnikẹ́ni gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba; ìwọ ṣe ohunkóhun tí o rò pé ó dára jù lójú rẹ.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Jehu kọ lẹ́tà kejì sí wọn, wí pé, “Tí ìwọ bá wà ní ìhà tèmi, tí o sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ mi mọ́, mú orí àwọn ọmọkùnrin ọ̀gá à rẹ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní Jesreeli ní ìwòyí ọ̀la.” Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ọmọ-aládé àádọ́rin ọkùnrin, ń bẹ pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn ńlá ìlú náà tí ń tọ́ wọn.
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,
Nígbà tí ìwé náà dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí mú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ ọba tí gbogbo wọ́n jẹ́ àádọ́rin wọ́n sì pa gbogbo wọn. Wọ́n gbé orí wọn sí inú apẹ̀rẹ̀, wọ́n fi ránṣẹ́ sí Jehu ní Jesreeli.
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.”
Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ náà dé, ó sọ fún Jehu, “Wọ́n ti gbé orí àwọn ọmọ ọba náà wá.” Nígbà náà Jehu pàṣẹ, “Ẹ tò wọ́n ní òkìtì méjì ní àtiwọ ẹnu ibodè ìlú ńlá títí di òwúrọ̀.”
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?
Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Jehu jáde lọ. Ó dúró níwájú gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin jẹ́ aláìjẹ̀bi. Èmi ni mo dìtẹ̀ sí ọ̀gá mi, tí mo sì pa á, ṣùgbọ́n ta ni ó pa gbogbo àwọn wọ̀nyí?
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.”
Nígbà yìí, kò sí ọ̀rọ̀ kan tí Olúwa ti sọ sí ilé Ahabu tí yóò kùnà. Olúwa ti ṣe ohun tí ó ṣèlérí nípasẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Elijah.”
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu pa gbogbo ẹni tí ó kù Jesreeli ní ilé Ahabu, pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin ìjòyè rẹ̀, àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ tímọ́tímọ́ àti àwọn àlùfáà rẹ̀, láì ku ẹni tí ó yọ nínú ewu fún un.
12 And he rises, and comes in and goes to Samaria; he [is] at the shepherds’ shearing-house in the way,
Jehu jáde lọ, ó sì lọ sí ọ̀kánkán Samaria. Ní Beti-Ekedi tí àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn.
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 pàdé díẹ̀ lára àwọn ìbátan Ahasiah ọba Juda, ó sì béèrè, “Ta ni ẹ̀yin ń ṣe?” Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa jẹ́ ìbátan Ahasiah, àwa sì ti wá láti kí ìdílé ọba àti ti màmá ayaba.”
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.
“Mú wọn láààyè!” ó pàṣẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n mú wọn láààyè, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n ní ẹ̀bá kọ̀nga Beti-Ekedi, ọkùnrin méjìlélógójì. Kò sì fi ẹnìkan sílẹ̀ láìkù.
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,
Nígbà tí a sì jáde níbẹ̀, ó rí Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu ń bọ̀ wá pàdé rẹ̀, ó sì súre fún un, ó sì wí fún pé, “Ọkàn rẹ ha ṣe déédé bí ọkàn mi ti rí sí ọkàn rẹ?” Jehonadabu dáhùn wí pé, “Èmi wà.” Jehu wí pé, “Bí ó bá jẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀, fún mi ní ọwọ́ ọ̀ rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó ṣe pẹ̀lú, Jehu sì fà á lọ́wọ́ sókè sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nínú kẹ̀kẹ́.
16 and says, “Come with me, and look on my zeal for YHWH”; and they cause him to ride in his chariot.
Jehu wí pé, “Wá pẹ̀lú mi, kí o sì rí ìtara mi fún Olúwa.” Nígbà náà ó jẹ́ kí ó gun kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀.
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.
Nígbà tí Jehu wá sí Samaria, ó pa gbogbo àwọn tí a fi kalẹ̀ ní ìdílé Ahabu; ó pa wọ́n run, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a sọ sí Elijah.
18 And Jehu gathers the whole of the people and says to them, “Ahab served Ba‘al a little—Jehu serves him much:
Nígbà náà, Jehu kó gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn jọ, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ahabu sin Baali díẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n Jehu yóò sìn ín púpọ̀.
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.
Nísinsin yìí, ẹ pe gbogbo àwọn wòlíì Baali jọ fún mi, gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo àlùfáà rẹ̀, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ọ̀kan kí ó kù, nítorí èmí yóò rú ẹbọ ńlá sí Baali. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá kọ̀ láti wá, kò ní wà láààyè mọ́.” Ṣùgbọ́n Jehu fi ẹ̀tàn ṣe é, kí ó lè pa àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali run.
20 And Jehu says, “Sanctify a restraint for Ba‘al”; and they proclaim [it].
Jehu wí pé, “ẹ pe àpéjọ ní ìwòyí ọ̀la fún Baali.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n kéde rẹ.
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.
Nígbà náà, Jehu rán ọ̀rọ̀ káàkiri Israẹli, gbogbo àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali sì wá: kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó dúró lẹ́yìn. Wọ́n kún ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà títí tí ó fi kún láti ìkangun èkínní títí dé èkejì.
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.
Jehu sì sọ fún olùṣọ́ pé, “Kí ó mú aṣọ ìgúnwà wá fún gbogbo àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó mú aṣọ ìgúnwà jáde wá fún wọn.
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.”
Nígbà náà, Jehu àti Jehonadabu ọmọ Rekabu lọ sí inú ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali. Jehu sì wí fún àwọn òjíṣẹ́ Baali pé, “Wò ó yíká, kí o sì rí i pé kò sí ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa kankan pẹ̀lú yín níbí—kìkì òjíṣẹ́ Baali.”
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.”
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n wọ inú ilé lọ láti lọ rú ẹbọ àti ẹbọ sísun. Nísinsin yìí Jehu ti rán ọgọ́rin ọkùnrin sí ìta pẹ̀lú ìkìlọ̀ yìí: “Tí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín bá jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú àwọn ọkùnrin tí mo ń gbé sí ọwọ́ yín ó sálọ, yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀mí yín fún ẹ̀mí rẹ.”
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,
Ní kété tí Jehu ti parí ṣíṣe ẹbọ sísun, ó pàṣẹ fún àwọn olùṣọ́ àti àwọn ìjòyè: “Wọlé lọ, kí o sì pa wọ́n, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni kí ó sálọ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n gé wọn lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà. Àwọn olùṣọ́ àti ìjòyè ju ara wọn síta, wọ́n sì wọ inú ojúbọ ti ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali.
26 and bring out the standing-pillars of the house of Ba‘al, and burn them,
Wọ́n gbé òkúta bíbọ náà jáde láti inú ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali, wọ́n sì jó o.
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.
Wọ́n fọ́ òkúta bíbọ ti Baali náà túútúú, wọ́n sì ya ilé òrìṣà Baali bolẹ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn sì ń lò ó fún ilé ìgbẹ́ títí di ọjọ́ òní.
28 And Jehu destroys Ba‘al out of Israel,
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu pa sí sin Baali run ní Israẹli.
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.
Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, Jehu kò yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati, tí ó ṣokùnfà Israẹli láti dá—ti sí sin ẹgbọrọ màlúù wúrà ní Beteli àti Dani.
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.”
Olúwa sì sọ fún Jehu pé, “Nítorí ìwọ ti ṣe dáradára ní ṣíṣe èyí tí ó tọ́ ní ojú mi, tí o sì ti ṣe sí ilé Ahabu gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí ó wà ní ọkàn mi, àwọn ọmọ ọ̀ rẹ yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ Israẹli títí dé ìran kẹrin.”
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.
Síbẹ̀ Jehu kò ṣe pẹ̀lẹ́ láti pa òfin Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli mọ́ pẹ̀lú tọkàntọkàn. Òun kò yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jeroboamu èyí tí ó ṣokùnfà Israẹli láti dá.
32 In those days YHWH has begun to cut off [some] in Israel, and Hazael strikes them in all the border of Israel,
Ní ọjọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, Olúwa ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní dín iye Israẹli kù. Hasaeli fi agbára jẹ ọba lórí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní gbogbo agbègbè wọn.
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.
Ìlà-oòrùn ti Jordani ni gbogbo ilẹ̀ ti Gileadi (ẹ̀kún ilẹ̀ ti ará Gadi, Reubeni, àti Manase) láti Aroeri, tí ó wà létí kòtò Arnoni láti ìhà Gileadi sí Baṣani.
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?
Fún ti òmíràn ti iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jehu, gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, gbogbo àṣeyọrí rẹ̀, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sí inú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Israẹli?
35 And Jehu lies with his fathers, and they bury him in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz reigns in his stead.
Jehu sinmi pẹ̀lú baba a rẹ̀, a sì sin ín sí Samaria Jehoahasi ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
36 And the days that Jehu has reigned over Israel in Samaria [are] twenty-eight years.
Àkókò tí Jehu fi jẹ ọba lórí Israẹli ní Samaria jẹ́ ọdún méjìdínlọ́gbọ̀n.
