2 Kings 9
1 Now, Elisha the prophet, called one of the sons of the prophets, —and said to him—Gird up thy loins, and take this flask of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-gilead;
Elisha janabi noluongo achiel kuom jonabi mowachone niya, “Ngʼwan lawi e nungoni, kendo ikaw morni idhigo e piny Ramoth Gilead.
2 and, when thou art come in thither, then look thee out, there, Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi; and thou shalt enter and get him to rise up out of the midst of his brethren, and take him into an inner chamber;
Ka ichopo kanyo, to imany Jehu wuod Jehoshafat, ma wuod Nimshi. Dhi ire igole oko e kind ji kendo itere nyaka ei ot kar kende.
3 then shalt thou take the flask of oil, and pour out upon his head, and say—Thus, saith Yahweh, I have anointed thee to be king unto Israel! Then shalt thou open the door and flee, and not tarry.
Bangʼ mano, kaw puga motingʼo mo iol e wiye kiwacho niya, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Asewali bedo ruodh Israel.’ Bangʼ timo ma to iyaw dhoot; kendo ring piyo, kik ideki!”
4 So the young man went his way—the young man the prophet—unto Ramoth-gilead.
Eka wuowi matin ma janabi nodhi Ramoth Gilead.
5 And, when he came up, lo! the captains of the force, sitting, and he said—A word, have I, for thee, O captain! And Jehu said—For which, of us all? And he said, —For thee, O captain!
Kane ochopo noyudo ka jotend lweny obet kanyakla. Nowachone jatend lweny niya, “An-gi wach moro madwaro wachoni.” Jehu nopenje niya, “En ngʼa kuomwa ka midwaro losogo?” Nodwoke niya, “En mana in, jatend lweny.”
6 Then rose he up and went inside, and poured out the oil upon his head, and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, I have anointed thee to be king unto the people of Yahweh, unto Israel;
Jehu nochungʼ malo modhi kode ei ot. Bangʼ mano janabino noolo mo ewi Jehu kowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Asewali mondo ibed ruodh Israel ma gin jo-Jehova Nyasaye.
7 and thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy lord, —so will I avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Yahweh, at the hand of Jezebel;
Nyaka itiek od Ahab ma ruodhi, kendo abiro chulo kuor nikech remb jotichna ma jonabi kendo nikech remb jotich Jehova Nyasaye mane ochwer gi Jezebel.
8 so shall perish all the house of Ahab, —and I will cut off to Ahab the meanest, both him that is shut up and him that is left at large, in Israel.
Abiro tieko od Ahab duto. Abiro tieko chwo manie od Ahab e piny Israel bedni gin wasumbini kata joma ni thuolo.
9 Yea I will deliver up the house of Ahab, like the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat, —and like the house of Baasha son of Ahijah:
Abiro keto od Ahab chal gi od Jeroboam wuod Nebat kendo ochal kaka od Baasha wuod Ahija.
10 And, as for Jezebel, the dogs shall eat [her], in the town-land of Jezreel, there being none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
To ne Jezebel guogi ema nocham ringre e puodho manie paw Jezreel kendo onge ngʼama noyike.’” Bangʼ mano noyawo dhoot moringo odhi.
11 Then, Jehu, came forth unto the servants of his lord, and one said to him—Is all well? why came this madman unto thee? And he said unto them, Ye, know, the man and his message.
Kane Jehu odok ir jotend lweny wetene achiel kuomgi nopenje niya, “Bende weche duto beyo? To angʼo mane janekono obirone iri?” Jehu nodwokogi niya, “Ungʼeyo ngʼatno, to gi gik ma onyalo wacho.”
12 And they said—False! pray tell, us. And he said, —Thus and thus, spake he unto me, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, I have anointed thee to be king unto Israel.
Negikwere niya, “Mano en miriambo, wachnwa adier.” Jehu nodwokogi niya, “Ma e gima nonyisa: ‘Ni Jehova Nyasaye owacho: Asewiri mondo ibed ruodh Israel.’”
13 Then hasted they, and took, every man his garment, and put it under him, upon the very steps, —and blew with a horn, and said, Jehu, is king!
Negigolo lepgi piyo piyo ma gipedho ewi raidhi mondo Jehu owuothie. Eka negigoyo turumbete ka gigoyo koko niya, “Jehu en ruoth!”
14 Thus did Jehu son of Jehoshaphat son of Nimshi conspire against Joram, —when, Joram, was watching Ramoth-gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.
Eka Jehu wuod Jehoshafat ma wuod Nimshi nochano lingʼ-lingʼ mondo omonj Joram. (Koro Joram gi jo-Israel duto nosebedo kakedo mondo gisir Ramoth Gilead kuom monj moa kuom Hazael ruodh Aram,
15 But Jehoram the king had returned to get himself healed in Jezreel, of the wounds wherewith the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. Then said Jehu—If such is your mind, let no fugitive get forth out of the city, to go and tell it in Jezreel.
to ruoth Joram noduogo Jezreel mondo ochangi kuom adhonde mane oyudo kuom lweny mane ni e kinde gi Hazael ruodh jo-Aram). Jehu mowachone niya, “Ka ma e kaka uparo, to kik iyie ngʼato angʼata wuogi e dala maduongʼ ka mondo odhi ohul wachni e piny Jezreel.”
16 So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went towards Jezreel, for, Joram, was lying there, —and, Ahaziah king of Judah, had come down to see Joram.
Eka nodhi moidho gache mar lweny moringo odhi Jezreel nikech Joram ne ni kuno kendo Ahazia ruodh Juda bende noyudo ni kuno kaka wendone.
17 Now, the watchman, was standing upon the tower, in Jezreel, so he saw the great company of Jehu, when he came, and said—A great company, can I see! Then said Jehoram—Take a horseman and send to meet them, that he may say—Is it peace?
Ka jangʼicho mane ni ewi ohinga man Jezreel noneno jolweny Jehu kabiro, nogoyo koko niya, “Aneno ka jolweny biro.” Joram nokone niya, “Or ngʼato gi faras mondo odhi openjgi ka gibiro e yor kwe.”
18 So the horseman went to meet him, and said—Thus, saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said—What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came up to them, but hath not turned back.
Jariemb faras noringo moromo gi Jehu mowachone niya, “Ruodha penjo kama: ‘Bende ubiro e yor kwe?’” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Kwe to obadhi angʼo? Luw bangʼa.” Jangʼicho nodwoko wach ni Joram ni, “Jaote osechopo irgi, to ok ane koduogo.”
19 Then sent he a second horseman, and he came up to them and said, Thus, saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said—What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.
Kuom mano ruoth nooro jariemb faras mar ariyo. Kane ochopo irgi nowachonegi niya, “Ruodha penjo kama: ‘Bende ubiro e yor kwe?’” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Kwe to obadhi e angʼo? Luw bangʼa.”
20 And the watchman told, saying, He came up to them, but hath not turned back, —and, the driving, is like the driving of Jehu son of Nimshi; for, with mad haste, doth he drive.
Jangʼicho noduogo wach ne Joram niya, “Osechopo irgi, to ok ane koduogo. Jariemb gari cha chalo mana gi Jehu wuod Nimshi, kendo oriembo mana ka janeko.”
21 Then said Jehoram, Harness! So one harnessed his chariot, —and Jehoram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went forth, each man in his chariot, yea they went forth to meet Jehu, and came upon him in the heritage of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Joram nogolo chik niya, “Ikna gacha.” To kane giseikone gache, Joram ruodh Israel kod Ahazia ruodh Juda noriembo gechegi, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato ni e gache owuon mondo girom gi Jehu. Negiromo kode e puodho mane mar Naboth ja-Jezreel.
22 And it came to pass, when Jehoram saw Jehu, that he said—Is it peace, Jehu? And he said—What can be the peace, while thy mother Jezebel’s harlotries and her incantations do so abound?
Kane Joram oneno Jehu nopenje niya, “Ibiro e yor kwe koso?” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Ere kaka kwe nyalo betie kapod Jezebel minu dhi nyime gi lamo nyiseche manono kod timo timbe jwok?”
23 Then Jehoram turned his hands, and fled, —and said unto Ahaziah—Treachery! O Ahaziah!
Joram nolokore moa gi ngʼwech kokok ne Ahazia niya, “Ja-andhoga Ahazia!”
24 And, Jehu, bent his bow, and smote Jehoram, between his arms, —and the arrow came out at his heart, —and he sank down in his chariot.
Eka Jehu noywayo atungʼ modiro asere kendo ochwoyo kind ngʼede Joram. Asere nopowo dho chunye molwar piny oa ewi gache.
25 Then said he unto Bidkar his officer, Take [him] up, [and] cast him forth, into the field-portion of Naboth the Jezreelite, —for remember, when I and thou were riding as a couple together after Ahab his father, that, Yahweh, laid upon him this doom:
Jehu nowachone Bidkar jatend gechene mag lweny niya, “Kawe ibole e puodho mane mar Naboth ja-Jezreel. Par kaka in kod an ne wariembo gechewa kanyachiel bangʼ Ahab ma wuon-gi kane Jehova Nyasaye okoro wachni kuome kama:
26 Surely, the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons, have I lately seen, declareth Yahweh, therefore will I requite thee in this portion, declareth Yahweh. Now, therefore, take [him] up, [and] cast him forth into the portion, according to the word of Yahweh.
‘Nyoro ne aneno remb Naboth gi remb yawuote kendo adiera abiro miyo gichul kuom chwero remo e puodho manie pap,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Kaweuru kendo ubole e puodhono kaluwore gi wach Jehova Nyasaye.”
27 And, Ahaziah king of Judah, saw it, and fled by the way of the garden house, —and Jehu pursued him, and said—Him also! smite him in the chariot! It was in the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Mepidgo, and died there.
Kane Ahazia ruodh Juda oneno gima otimore noringo kotony gi yor Beth-Hagan. Jehu nolawe kakok niya, “En bende negeuru!” Ne gihinye ewi gache mar lweny koringo ochomo Gur man but Ibleam, to notony kodhi Megido kuma nothoe.
28 And his servants conveyed him in a chariot and brought him into Jerusalem, —and buried him in his sepulchre, with his fathers, in the city of David.
Jotichne nokawe gi gach lweny nyaka Jerusalem moike kod kwerene e bure mantiere e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi.
29 Now it was, in the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, that Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.
E higa mar apar gachiel mar Joram wuod Ahab, Ahazia nobedo ruoth e piny Juda.
30 Now, when Jehu entered Jezreel and, Jezebel, heard of it, she set her eyes in stibium, and ornamented her head, and looked forth through the lattice.
Kane Jehu odhi Jezreel, Jezebel nowinjo birone kanyo, mi obuko wangʼe kendo oloso wiye kongʼicho gie dirisa.
31 So, when, Jehu, had entered in at the gate, she said, Was it peace, when Zimri slew his lord?
Kane Jehu odonjo e dhorangach nopenjo niya, “Ibiro e yor kwe, in Zimri ma janek ruodheni?”
32 And he lifted up his face unto the lattice, and said—Who, is with me? Who? And there looked out unto him, two or three eunuchs.
Nongʼiyo malo e dirisa mopenjo niya, “En ngʼa ma jakora? En ngʼa?” Eka ji ariyo kata adek mabwoch nongʼiye gi kwinyo.
33 And he said—Hurl her down. And they hurled her down, —and there was sprinkled of her blood—upon the wall, and upon the horses, and they trode upon her.
Jehu nowachonegi niya, “Diruru dhakono piny!” Omiyo negidire piny ma rembe moko okirore e kor ohinga ka farase nyone piny.
34 And, when he had entered and eaten and drunk, he said—Look, I pray you, after this accursed woman, and bury her, for the daughter of a king, she is.
Jehu nodonjo e dalano mochiemo kendo ometho. Eka nowachonegi niya, “Kawuru dhako mokwongʼno udhi uyiki, nimar ne en nyar ruoth.”
35 So they went to bury her, —but found not of her—save the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.
To kane gidhi yike onge gima negiyudo makmana hanga wiye, tiendene gi lwetene.
36 Then came they back, and told him, and he said—The word of Yahweh, it is, which he spake by the hand of his servant, Elijah the Tishbite, saying—In the town-land of Jezreel, shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel!
Negidok ma giwachone Jehu wachno, mane owacho niya, “Ma e wach mane Jehova Nyasaye owacho kokadho kuom jatichne Elija ja-Tishbi: E puodho manie paw Jezreel guogi nokidh ringre Jezebel.
37 So shall the carcass of Jezebel become like heaps of dung on the face of the field, in the town-land of Jezreel: So that they cannot say, This, is Jezebel!
Ringre Jezebel nochal ka owuoyo moyar e pewe mag Jezreel, maonge ngʼama nyalo wacho ni ma Jezebel.”
