< 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.
Mu Samaliya waaliyo batabani ba Akabu nsanvu. Awo Yeeku n’awandiika amabaluwa n’agaweereza e Samaliya eri abakungu b’e Yezuleeri, n’eri abakadde ab’ekibuga, n’eri abakuza b’abaana ba Akabu. N’awandiika nti,
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.
“Amangwago ng’ebbaluwa eno ebatuuseeko, ng’abaana ba mukama wammwe bwe bali nammwe, ate nga mulina amagaali n’embalaasi, era n’ekibuga kiriko enkomera n’ebyokulwanyisa,
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.
mulonde ku batabani ba mukama wammwe asinga obulungi, ng’asaanira, mumuteeke ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka eya kitaawe, mulwanirire ennyumba ya mukama wammwe.”
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.
Naye ekyo ne bakitya nnyo, ne boogera nti, “Obanga bakabaka ababiri tebaayinza kumwesimbamu, ffe tunaayinza tutya?”
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.
Awo eyavunaanyizibwanga ebyolubiri, n’omukulembeze ow’ekibuga, n’abakuza ab’abaana ne baweereza obubaka eri Yeeku nti, “Ffe tuli baddu bo era tunaakola byonna by’onootulagira. Tetujja kufuula muntu n’omu kabaka; gw’oba okola ky’olowooza nga kye kisinga obulungi.”
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.
Awo Yeeku n’abawandiikira ebbaluwa eyookubiri ng’agamba nti, “Obanga muli ku lwange era nga muŋŋondera, mutemeeko emitwe gy’abatabani ba mukama wammwe, mugindetere e Yezuleeri, mugintuseeko enkya mu kiseera nga kino.” Abalangira ensanvu baabeeranga n’abakuza baabwe abaali abaami abakulu mu kibuga ekyo.
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.
Ebbaluwa bwe yabatuukako, ne bakwata abalangira ensanvu bonna ne babatta, ne bateeka emitwe gyabwe mu bisero, mwe baagiweerereza eri Yeeku e Yezuleeri.
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.
Omubaka n’agenda n’agamba Yeeku nti, “Emitwe gy’abalangira bagireese.” Yeeku n’alagira nti, “Mugituume entuumo bbiri ku mulyango gwa wankaaki okutuusa enkya.”
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.
Yeeku n’afuluma, n’ayimirira mu maaso g’abantu bonna n’ayogera nti, “Mmwe temuliiko musango, era nze nasalira mukama wange olukwe ne mutta, naye ani asse bano bonna?
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.
Kale mukitegeere nga tewali kigambo kya Mukama, kye yayogera ku nnyumba ya Akabu ekitalituukirira, kubanga Mukama akoze ekyo kye yayogerera mu muddu we Eriya.”
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.
Bw’atyo Yeeku n’atta ab’enju ya Akabu bonna abaali basigaddewo mu Yezuleeri; n’atta n’abakungu be, ne mikwano gye enfirabulago, ne bakabona be, obutalekaawo n’omu.
12 And he arose and he went and he went Samaria he [was at] Beth Eked of [the] Shepherds on [the] way.
Awo Yeeku n’asitula n’ayolekera Samaliya. N’asisinkana baganda ba Akaziya kabaka wa Yuda mu kkubo okumpi n’ennyumba eyasalirwangamu endiga ebyoya,
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.
n’ababuuza nti, “Mmwe b’ani?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tuli baganda ba Akaziya, era tuzze okulamusa abaana ba kabaka n’abaana ba nnamasole.”
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.
N’alagira nti, “Mubakwate.” Ne babakwata, abasajja amakumi ana mu babiri bonna ne babattira kumpi n’obunnya obw’ennyumba gye baasalirangamu endiga ebyoya. N’atalekaawo n’omu.
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.
Eyo bwe yavaayo, n’asanga Yekonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu ng’ajja okumusisinkana. Yeeku n’amulamusa, n’amubuuza nti, “Ossa kimu nange, nga nze bwe nzisa ekimu naawe?” Yekonadabu n’addamu nti, “Weewaawo.” Yeeku n’amugamba nti, “Obanga weewaawo, mpa omukono gwo.” N’amuwa omukono gwe, Yeeku n’amulinnyisa gy’ali mu ggaali.
16 And he said come! with me and look on zeal my for Yahweh and they made ride him in chariot his.
Yeeku n’amugamba nti, “Jjangu tugende ffembi olabe obunyiikivu bwange eri Mukama.” Awo n’atambulira wamu naye mu ggaali lye.
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.
Awo Yeeku bwe yatuuka e Samaliya, n’atta bonna abaali basigaddewo ab’omu nnyumba ya Akabu, n’abazikiriza ng’ekigambo kya Mukama kye yayogera eri Eriya bwe kyali.
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.
Awo Yeeku n’akuŋŋaanya abantu bonna, n’abagamba nti, “Akabu yaweerezaako Baali ebbanga ttono naye Yeeku anaamuweereza okusingawo.
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.
Kale nno muyite bannabbi bonna aba Baali, bakabona be bonna, n’abaweereza be bonna, waleme okubulawo n’omu kubanga ŋŋenda okuwaayo ssaddaaka enkulu ennyo eri Baali, ne buli ataabeerewo alittibwa.” Naye okukola ekyo, Yeeku yasala lukwe alyoke azikirize abaasinzanga Baali.
20 And he said Jehu consecrate an assembly to Baal and they proclaimed [it].
Yeeku n’alagira nti, “Mukole olukuŋŋaana olutukuvu eri Baali.” Ne balulangirira.
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.
Awo n’aweereza obubaka okubuna Isirayiri yonna, abaweereza ba Baali bonna ne bajja, n’okusigala n’etasigala muntu n’omu. Ne bakuŋŋaanira mu ssabo lya Baali, ne lijjulira ddala okuva ku luuyi olumu okutuukira ddala ku luuyi olulala.
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.
Yeeku n’agamba eyavunaanyizibwanga ebyambalo byabwe nti, “Leetera abaweereza ba Baali bonna ebyambalo.” Bonna n’abaleetera ebyambalo.
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.
Awo Yeeku ne Yekonadabu mutabani wa Lekabu ne bagenda mu ssabo lya Baali. Yeeku n’agamba abaweereza ba Baali nti, “Mwetegereze nnyo mulabe nga mu mmwe temuliimu muweereza wa Mukama, wabula abasinza Baali bokka.”
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.
Ne bayingira okuwaayo ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa. Naye Yeeku yali atadde abasajja kinaana ebweru w’essabo, ng’abalabudde nti, “Omuntu yenna anaataako n’omu ku basajja abo be ntadde mu mikono gyammwe, anaaliwa n’obulamu bwe ye.”
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.
Amangwago bwe yamala okuwaayo ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa, n’alagira abaserikale n’abaami nti, “Muyingire mubatte; waleme okuwonawo n’omu.” Bwe baamala okubatta n’ekitala, ne basuula emirambo gyabwe ebweru, ne bayingira munda mu ssabo ekkulu erya Baali.
26 And they brought out [the] sacred pillars of [the] house of Baal and they burned it.
Ne bafulumya empagi ezaali mu ssabo lya Baali, ne bazookya.
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.
Ne bamenyaamenya empagi ya Baali, ne bamenyaamenya ne ssabo lya Baali, ne balifuula kabuyonjo ne leero.
28 And he destroyed Jehu Baal from Israel.
Awo Yeeku n’amalirawo ddala okusinza kwa Baali mu Isirayiri.
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.
Naye teyaleka kukola ebibi ebya Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati, bye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri, ng’okusinza ennyana eza zaabu ezaali mu Beseri ne mu Ddaani.
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.
Mukama n’agamba Yeeku nti, “Olw’okukola obulungi n’otuukiriza byonna mu maaso gange, n’okola ennyumba ya Akabu byonna ebyali ku mutima gwange bye nnali nteeseteese okukola, bazzukulu bo kyebaliva batuula ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka eya Isirayiri okutuusa ku muzzukulu owa nnakana.”
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.
Naye Yeeku n’atassaayo mwoyo okutambulira mu mateeka ga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri. Era teyakyuka okuva mu kkubo ery’ebibi erya Yerobowaamu, lye yayonoonyesa Isirayiri.
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.
Mu biro ebyo Mukama n’atandika okukendeeza ensalo za Isirayiri. Kazayeeri n’abawangula ng’atandikira
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.
ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba mu nsi ey’e Gireyaadi mu bitundu eby’Abagaadi, n’Abalewubeeni, n’Abamanase okuva ku Aloweri okuliraana ekiwonvu kya Alunoni n’okuyita e Gireyaadi okutuuka e Basani.
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.
Ebyafaayo ebirala ebyabaawo mu mirembe gya Yeeku, n’ebintu byonna ebikulu bye yakola, tebyawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’ebyomumirembe egya bassekabaka ba Isirayiri?
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.
Yeeku n’afa, n’aziikibwa mu Samaliya, Yekoyakaazi mutabani we n’amusikira.
36 And the days which he reigned Jehu over Israel [were] twenty and eight year[s] in Samaria.
Ebbanga Yeeku lye yafuga Isirayiri mu Samaliya lyali emyaka amakumi abiri mu munaana.
