< 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.
Erant autem Achab septuaginta filii in Samaria: scripsit ergo Iehu litteras, et misit in Samariam, ad optimates civitatis, et ad maiores natu, et ad nutritios Achab, dicens:
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.
Statim ut acceperitis litteras has, qui habetis filios domini vestri, et currus, et equos, et civitates firmas, et arma,
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.
eligite meliorem, et eum qui vobis placuerit de filiis domini vestri, et eum ponite super solium patris sui, et pugnate pro domo domini vestri.
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.
Timuerunt illi vehementer, et dixerunt: Ecce duo reges non potuerunt stare coram eo, et quo modo nos valebimus resistere?
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.
Miserunt ergo præpositi domus, et præfecti civitatis, et maiores natu, et nutritii, ad Iehu, dicentes: Servi tui sumus, quæcumque iusseris faciemus, nec constituemus nobis regem: quæcumque tibi placent, fac.
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.
Rescripsit autem eis litteras secundo, dicens: Si mei estis, et obeditis mihi, tollite capita filiorum domini vestri, et venite ad me hac eadem hora cras in Iezrahel. Porro filii regis, septuaginta viri apud optimates civitates nutriebantur.
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.
Cumque venissent litteras ad eos, tulerunt filios regis, et occiderunt septuaginta viros, et posuerunt capita eorum in cophinis, et miserunt ad eum in Iezrahel.
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.
Venit autem nuncius, et indicavit ei, dicens: Attulerunt capita filiorum regis. Qui respondit: Ponite ea ad duos acervos iuxta introitum portæ usque mane.
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.
Cumque diluxisset, egressus est, et stans dixit ad omnem populum: Iusti estis: si ego coniuravi contra dominum meum, et interfeci eum, quis percussit omnes hos?
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.
Videte ergo nunc quoniam non cecidit de sermonibus Domini in terram, quos locutus est Dominus super domum Achab, et Dominus fecit quod locutus est in manu servi sui Eliæ.
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.
Percussit igitur Iehu omnes, qui reliqui erant de domo Achab in Iezrahel, et universos optimates eius, et notos, et sacerdotes, donec non remanerent ex eo reliquiæ.
12 And he arose and he went and he went Samaria he [was at] Beth Eked of [the] Shepherds on [the] way.
Et surrexit, et venit in Samariam: cumque venisset ad cameram pastorum in via,
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.
invenit fratres Ochoziæ regis Iuda, dixitque ad eos: Quinam estis vos? Qui responderunt: Fratres Ochoziæ sumus, et descendimus ad salutandos filios regis, et filios reginæ.
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.
Qui ait: Comprehendite eos vivos. Quos cum comprehendissent vivos, iugulaverunt eos in cisterna iuxta Cameram, quadraginta duos viros, et non reliquit ex eis quemquam.
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.
Cumque abiisset inde, invenit Ionadab filium Rechab in occursum sibi, et benedixit ei. Et ait ad eum: Numquid est cor tuum rectum, sicut cor meum cum corde tuo? Et ait Ionadab: Est. Si est, inquit, da manum tuam. Qui dedit ei manum suam. At ille levavit eum ad se in currum:
16 And he said come! with me and look on zeal my for Yahweh and they made ride him in chariot his.
dixitque ad eum: Veni mecum, et vide zelum meum pro Domino. Et impositum in curru suo
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.
duxit in Samariam. Et percussit omnes qui reliqui fuerant de Achab in Samaria usque ad unum, iuxta verbum Domini, quod locutus est per Eliam.
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.
Congregavit ergo Iehu omnem populum, et dixit ad eos: Achab coluit Baal parum, ego autem colam eum amplius.
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.
Nunc igitur omnes prophetas Baal, et universos servos eius, et cunctos sacerdotes ipsius vocate ad me: nullus sit qui non veniat, sacrificium enim grande est mihi Baal: quicumque defuerit, non vivet. Porro Iehu faciebat hoc insidiose, ut disperderet cultores Baal.
20 And he said Jehu consecrate an assembly to Baal and they proclaimed [it].
Et dixit: Sanctificate diem sollemnem Baal. Vocavitque
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.
et misit in univeros terminos Israel, et venerunt cuncti servi Baal: non fuit residuus ne unus quidem qui non veniret. Et ingressi sunt templum Baal: et repleta est domus Baal, a summo usque ad summum.
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.
Dixitque his, qui erant super vestes: Proferte vestimenta universis servis Baal. Et protulerunt eis vestes.
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.
Ingressusque Iehu, et Ionadab filius Rechab templum Baal, ait cultoribus Baal: Perquirite, et videte, ne quis forte vobiscum sit de servis Domini, sed ut sint servi Baal soli.
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.
Ingressi sunt igitur ut facerent victimas et holocausta: Iehu autem præparaverat sibi foris octoginta viros, et dixerat eis: Quicumque fugerit de hominibus his, quos ego adduxero in manus vestras, anima eius erit pro anima illius.
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.
Factum est autem, cum completum esset holocaustum, præcepit Iehu militibus et ducibus suis: Ingredimini, et percutite eos, nullus evadat. Percusseruntque eos in ore gladii, et proiecerunt milites et duces: et ierunt in civitatem templi Baal,
26 And they brought out [the] sacred pillars of [the] house of Baal and they burned it.
et protulerunt statuam de fano Baal, et combusserunt,
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.
et comminuerunt eam. Destruxerunt quoque ædem Baal, et fecerunt pro ea latrinas usque in diem hanc.
28 And he destroyed Jehu Baal from Israel.
Delevit itaque Iehu Baal de Israel:
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.
verumtamen a peccatis Ieroboam filii Nabat, qui peccare fecit Israel, non recessit, nec dereliquit vitulos aureos, qui erant in Bethel, et in Dan.
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.
Dixit autem Dominus ad Iehu: Quia studiose egisti quod rectum erat, et placebat in oculis meis, et omnia quæ erant in corde meo fecisti contra domum Achab: filii tui usque ad quartam generationem sedebunt super thronum Israel.
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.
Porro Iehu non custodivit ut ambularet in lege Domini Dei Israel in toto corde suo: non enim recessit a peccatis Ieroboam, qui peccare fecerat Israel.
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.
In diebus illis cœpit Dominus tædere super Israel: percussitque eos Hazael in universis finibus Israel,
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.
a Iordane contra Orientalem plagam, omnem Terram Galaad, et Gad, et Ruben, et Manasse, ab Aroer, quæ est super Torrentem Arnon, et Galaad, et Basan.
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.
Reliqua autem verborum Iehu, et universa quæ fecit, et fortitudo eius, nonne hæc scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum regum Israel?
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.
Et dormivit Iehu cum patribus suis, sepelieruntque eum in Samaria: et regnavit Ioachaz filius eius pro eo.
36 And the days which he reigned Jehu over Israel [were] twenty and eight year[s] in Samaria.
Dies autem, quos regnavit Iehu super Israel, viginti et octo anni sunt, in Samaria.
