2 Kings 10
1 And [belonged] to Ahab seventy sons in Samaria and he wrote Jehu letters and he sent [them] Samaria to [the] officials of Jezreel the elders and to the guardians Ahab saying.
Azɔ la, viŋutsu blaadre nɔ Ahab ƒe aƒe me le Samaria. Ale Yehu ŋlɔ agbalẽwo ɖo ɖe Samaria na dumegã siwo nɔ Yezreel kple dumemetsitsiwo kple Ahab ƒe viwo dzikpɔlawo. Eŋlɔ ɖe wo me be,
2 And now (when comes *LB(ah)*) the letter this to you and [are] with you [the] sons of master your and [are] with you chariotry and horses and a city of fortification and weaponry.
“Ne agbalẽ sia ka mia si ko la, zi ale si miaƒe aƒetɔ ƒe viŋutsuwo le mia gbɔ eye tasiaɖamwo kple sɔwo kple du si woɖo gli ƒo xlãe kple aʋawɔnuwo le mia si la,
3 And you will see the good and the right of [the] sons of master your and you will set [him] on [the] throne of father his and fight on [the] house of master your.
mitia miaƒe aƒetɔ ƒe viŋutsuwo dometɔ nyuitɔ kple esi dzi mieka ɖo wu la miatsɔe aɖo fofoa ƒe fiazikpui dzi. Ekema miaʋli miaƒe aƒetɔ ƒe aƒe ta.”
4 And they were afraid very very and they said there! [the] two the kings not they stood before him and how? will we stand we.
Ke vɔvɔ̃ ɖo ameawo akpa na nu sia wɔwɔ eye wogblɔ be, “Fia eve mete ŋu nɔ te ɖe Yehu nu o, nu ka míawo míate ŋu awɔ?”
5 And he sent [the one] who [was] over the house and [the one] who [was] over the city and the elders and the guardians to Jehu - saying [are] servants your we and all that you will say to us we will do not we will make king anyone the good in view your do.
Ale fiasãmenyawo dzi kpɔla, dumegãwo, kplɔlawo kple Ahab ƒe viwo dzi kpɔla ɖo du ɖe Yehu be, “Fia Yehu, wò subɔlawo míenye. Míele klalo be míawɔ nu sia nu si nàɖo na mí. Míeɖo be wò boŋ nànye míaƒe fia ɖe Ahab ƒe viwo teƒe.”
6 And he wrote to them a letter - second saying if [belong] to me you and to voice my - you [are] listening take [the] heads of [the] men of [the] sons of master your and come to me about this time tomorrow Jezreel towards and [the] sons of the king seventy man [were] with [the] great [people] of the city [who] were bringing up them.
Yehu ɖo eŋu ɖo ɖe wo be, “Ne miele dzinye eye miele nye ɖoɖowo dzi wɔ ge la, ekema mitsɔ miaƒe aƒetɔ Ahab ƒe viŋutsuwo ƒe tawo vɛ nam le Yezreel etsɔ ɣe aleawo ɣi.” Ahab ƒe viŋutsu blaadre siawo nɔ amegãwo ƒe aƒewo me le dua me, afi si wonyi wo le tso woƒe ɖevime ke.
7 And it was when came the letter to them and they took [the] sons of the king and they slaughtered seventy man and they put heads their in baskets and they sent [them] to him Jezreel towards.
Esi woxɔ agbalẽa la, wowu wo ame blaadreawo katã eye wotsɔ woƒe tawo de kusiwo me heyi na Fia Yehu le Yezreel.
8 And he came the messenger and he told to him saying they have brought [the] heads of [the] sons of the king and he said make them two heaps [the] entrance of the gate until the morning.
Dɔla aɖe gblɔ na Yehu be, “Ahab ƒe viwo ƒe tawo va ɖo.” Yehu ɖe gbe be, “Mili kɔ wo ɖe teƒe eve ɖe dua ƒe agbo nu; woanɔ afi ma va se ɖe ŋufɔke.”
9 And it was in the morning and he went out and he stood and he said to all the people [are] righteous you here! I I conspired on master my and I killed him and who? did he strike down all these.
Esi ŋu ke la, Yehu do go. Etsi tsitre ɖe ameawo katã ŋkume hegblɔ be, “Mia tɔ dzɔ. Nyee ɖo nugbe ɖe nye aƒetɔ ŋu eye mewui, ke ame kae wu ame siawo katã?
10 Know then that not it will fall any of [the] word of Yahweh [the] ground towards which he has spoken Yahweh on [the] house of Ahab and Yahweh he has done [that] which he spoke by [the] hand of servant his Elijah.
Ekema minyae be, nya ɖeka pɛ hã mado le nya siwo Yehowa gblɔ ɖe Ahab ƒe aƒe ŋu la me o. Yehowa wɔ nu si ŋugbe wòdo to eƒe dɔla Eliya dzi.”
11 And he struck down Jehu all those [who] remained of [the] house of Ahab in Jezreel and all great [men] his and acquaintances his and priests his until not he had left to him a survivor.
Le esia megbe la, Yehu wu Ahab ƒe ƒometɔ mamlɛ siwo nɔ Yezreel kple eŋume veviwo kple xɔlɔ̃awo kple eƒe nunɔlawo. Mlɔeba la, ame siwo katã nɔ Ahab ŋu kplikplikpli kpɔ la dometɔ aɖeke mesusɔ o.
12 And he arose and he went and he went Samaria he [was at] Beth Eked of [the] Shepherds on [the] way.
Azɔ la, Yehu dze mɔ yina Samaria. Esi wòɖo Bet Eked afi si alẽkplɔlawo nɔna la,
13 And Jehu he found [the] brothers of Ahaziah [the] king of Judah and he said who? [are] you and they said [are] [the] brothers of Ahaziah we and we have come down for [the] peace of [the] sons of the king and [the] sons of the queen-mother.
edo go Yuda fia, Ahazia nɔviŋutsuwo le afi ma eye wòbia wo be, “Ame kawoe mienye?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Fia Ahazia ƒe ƒometɔwo míenye, míeyina Samaria be míakpɔ Fia Ahab kple fiasrɔ̃ Yezebel ƒe viwo ɖa.”
14 And he said seize them alive and they seized them alive and they slaughtered them to [the] pit of Beth Eked forty and two man and not he spared anyone from them.
Fia Yehu ɖe gbe na eƒe amewo be, “Milé wo!” Wolé wo eye wokplɔ wo ame blaeve-vɔ-eneawo katã yi ɖawu le Bet Eked, do aɖe gbɔ.
15 And he went from there and he found Jonadab [the] son of Rechab to meet him and he blessed him and he said to him ¿ [is] there with heart your right just as heart my [is] with heart your and he said Jonadab there is and there is give! hand your and he gave hand his and he took up him to himself into the chariot.
Esi Yehu dzo le amedzrodzeƒea la, edo go Yehonadab, Rekab ƒe vi, ame si gbɔna be yeakpee. Wodo gbe na wo nɔewo eye Yehu biae be, “Èle dzinye abe ale si mele dziwò enea?” Yehonadab ɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃.” Yehu gblɔ nɛ be, “Ekema na asim!” Ena asii eye Yehu na wòge ɖe eƒe tasiaɖam me.
16 And he said come! with me and look on zeal my for Yahweh and they made ride him in chariot his.
Yehu gblɔ nɛ be, “Azɔ, va míyi eye nàkpɔ ale si mele dɔ wɔm kple dzoe na Yehowa ɖa.” Ale Yehonadab nɔ tasiaɖam la me kplii eye wodzo.
17 And he came Samaria and he struck down all those [who] remained of Ahab in Samaria until he had destroyed him according to [the] word of Yahweh which he had spoken to Elijah.
Esi woɖo Samaria la, Yehu wu Ahab xɔlɔ̃wo kple ƒometɔ siwo katã susɔ ɖe afi ma abe ale si Yehowa gblɔ to Eliya dzi la ene.
18 And he gathered Jehu all the people and he said to them Ahab he served Baal a little Jehu he will serve him much.
Yehu ƒo ƒu ameawo katã nu eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Ahab subɔ Baal vie ko. Yehu asubɔe ŋutɔ.
19 And therefore all [the] prophets of Baal all [those who] serve him and all priests his summon to me anyone may not he be missing for a sacrifice great [belongs] to me to Baal any [one] who he will be missing not he will live and Jehu he acted with guile so as to destroy [those who] serve Baal.
Azɔ la, miyɔ Baal ƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo, nunɔlawo kple eƒe subɔlawo katã. Mikpɔ egbɔ be, ame sia ame va elabena mele vɔsa gã aɖe wɔ ge na Baal. Ame sia ame si agbe vava la, maganɔ agbe o.” Ke Yehu ɖe wòle ameawo blem ale be yeate ŋu atsrɔ̃ Baal ƒe nunɔlawo.
20 And he said Jehu consecrate an assembly to Baal and they proclaimed [it].
Yehu gblɔ be, “Miƒo ƒu ameawo nu hena bubudede Baal ŋu.” Ale woɖe gbeƒã kpekpe sia.
21 And he sent Jehu in all Israel and they came all [those who] serve Baal and not he was left anyone who not he came and they went [the] house of Baal and it was filled [the] house of Baal mouth to mouth.
Yehu gaɖo amewo ɖe Israelnyigba dzi eye Baal nunɔlawo katã va; wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã megbe vava o. Womimi wo ɖokuiwo ɖe Baal ƒe gbedoxɔ la me woyɔ gbedoxɔ la ƒe afi sia afi kpikpikpi.
22 And he said to [the one] who [was] over the wardrobe bring out clothing for all [those who] serve Baal and he brought out for them the clothing.
Yehu gblɔ na ame si kpɔa awu kɔkɔeawo dzi la be, “Kpɔ egbɔ be èhe awu kɔkɔeawo ɖe go na Baal nunɔlawo.” Ale wòhe awuawo ɖe go na wo.
23 And he went Jehu and Jonadab [the] son of Rechab [the] house of Baal and he said to [those who] serve Baal search and see lest there here with you [be] any of [the] servants of Yahweh that except [those who] serve Baal to alone them.
Azɔ la, Yehu kple Yehonadab, Rekab ƒe vi yi Baal ƒe gbedoxɔ la me eye wogblɔ na Baal nunɔlawo be, “Mikpɔ egbɔ be ame siwo subɔa Baal koe le afi sia. Migana ame siwo subɔa Yehowa la dometɔ aɖeke nage ɖe xɔa me o!”
24 And they went to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings and Jehu he had stationed himself on the outside eighty man and he had said the man who he will escape from the men whom I [am] bringing on hands your life his in place of life his.
Esi Baal nunɔlawo de asi akpedavɔwo kple numevɔwo sasa me la, Yehu na eƒe ame blaenyi ɖe to ɖe gbedoxɔ la. Egblɔ na wo be, “Ne mieɖe mɔ ame aɖe si la, miaku ɖe sisila la teƒe.”
25 And it was when finished he - to offer the burnt offering and he said Jehu to the runners and to the officers go strike down them anyone may not he come out and they struck down them to [the] mouth of [the] sword and they threw [them] out the runners and the officers and they went to [the] city of [the] house of Baal.
Esi Yehu wu akpedavɔsa kple numevɔsa la nu la, edo go ɖagblɔ na eƒe ameawo be, “Miyi gbedoxɔ la me eye miawu ameawo katã. Migana wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã nasi adzo o!” Ale wowu ameawo katã eye wohe woƒe kukuawo yi gota. Yehu ƒe amewo ge ɖe gbedoxɔ emetɔ me.
26 And they brought out [the] sacred pillars of [the] house of Baal and they burned it.
Wohe sɔti si ŋu dɔ wowɔna le Baal subɔsubɔ me la do goe eye wotɔ dzoe.
27 And they pulled down [the] sacred pillar of Baal and they pulled down [the] house of Baal and they made it (outhouses *Q(K)*) until this day.
Wogblẽ gbedoxɔ la eye wotrɔe wòzu afɔdzixɔ va se ɖe egbe.
28 And he destroyed Jehu Baal from Israel.
Ale Yehu ɖe Baal subɔsubɔ ɖa keŋkeŋ le Israelnyigba dzi.
29 Only [the] sins of Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat which he caused to sin Israel not he turned aside Jehu from after them [the] calves of gold which [were] Beth-el and which [were] in Dan.
Ke megbã sikanyivi si nɔ Betel kple Dan ya o. Sikanyivi siawo nye Yeroboam, Nebat ƒe vi ƒe nu vɔ̃ elabena ehe Israel blibo la de nu vɔ̃ me.
30 And he said Yahweh to Jehu because that you have done well by doing the right in view my according to all that [was] in heart my you have done to [the] house of Ahab descendants of [the] fourth [generation] they will sit of you on [the] throne of Israel.
Le esia megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Yehu be, “Èwɔe nyuie be èwɔ nye ɖoɖowo dzi eye nètsrɔ̃ Ahab ƒe dzidzimeviwo. Le esia ta la, mana wò dzidzimeviwo naɖu fia va se ɖe dzidzime enelia dzi.”
31 And Jehu not he took care to walk in [the] law of Yahweh [the] God of Israel with all heart his not he turned aside from on [the] sins of Jeroboam which he caused to sin Israel.
Ke Yehu medze Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la yome kple eƒe dzi blibo o, elabena meɖe asi le Yeroboam ƒe nu vɔ̃ siwo he Israel de nu vɔ̃ me la ŋuti o.
32 In the days those he began Yahweh to cut off in Israel and he struck down them Hazael in all [the] territory of Israel.
Le ŋkeke mawo me la, Yehowa ɖiɖi Israel ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ. Hazael ɖu Israelviwo dzi le nuto me blibo la me,
33 From the Jordan [the] rising of the sun all [the] land of Gilead the Gadite[s] and the Reubenite[s] and the Manassite[s] from Aroer which [is] at [the] wadi of Arnon and Gilead and Bashan.

34 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Jehu and all that he did and all might his ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Israel.
Woŋlɔ Yehu ƒe wɔna mamlɛawo ɖe Israel Fiawo ƒe ŋutinyagbalẽ me.
35 And he lay down Jehu with ancestors his and people buried him in Samaria and he became king Jehoahaz son his in place of him.
Esi Yehu ku la, woɖii ɖe Samaria. Via Yehoahaz ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
36 And the days which he reigned Jehu over Israel [were] twenty and eight year[s] in Samaria.
Yehu ɖu fia ɖe Israel dzi ƒe blaeve-vɔ-enyi.
