2 Kings 9
1 Meanwhile, the prophet Elisha summoned one of the other prophets. He said to him, “Get ready [IDM] and go to Ramoth [city] in [the] Gilead [region]. Take this jar of [olive] oil with you.
Sai Elisha ya kira wani daga cikin ƙungiyar annabawa, ya ce masa, “Ka sha ɗamara, ka ɗauki wannan kwalabar mai ka je Ramot Gileyad.
2 When you arrive there, search for a man named Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat and grandson of Nimshi. Go with him into a room away from his companions,
Da ka isa can, ka nemi Yehu ɗan Yehoshafat, ɗan Nimshi. Ka je wurinsa, ka ja shi gefe daga abokansa, ka shiga da shi ɗaki na ciki.
3 and pour [some of] this oil on his head. Then say to him, ‘Yahweh declares that he is appointing you to be the king of Israel.’ Then open the door and run away as quickly as you can.”
Sa’an nan ka ɗauki kwalabar man ka zuba a kansa, ka ce, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa, na naɗa ka sarkin Isra’ila.’ Sa’an nan ka buɗe ƙofa ka ruga a guje; kada ka ɓata lokaci!”
4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth.
Sai saurayin nan, annabi, ya tafi Ramot Gileyad.
5 When he arrived, he saw that the commanders of the army were having a conference. He [looked at Jehu and] said, “Sir, I have a message for [one of] you.” Jehu replied, “Which one of us is the message for?” The young prophet replied, “It is for you, commander/sir.”
Da ya isa can, sai ya tarar da hafsoshin soji zaune a wuri guda. Sai ya ce, “Ina da saƙo dominka komanda.” Sai Yehu ya ce, “Wanne a cikinmu?” Sai ce, “Dominka, komanda.”
6 So Jehu got up and went with the young prophet into a house. There the young prophet poured some [olive] oil on Jehu’s head and said to him, “Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], declares this: ‘I am appointing you to be the king of my Israeli people.
Sai Yehu ya tashi ya shiga cikin gida. Sa’an nan annabin ya zuba wa Yehu mai a kā, ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Na naɗa ka sarki a bisa jama’ar Ubangiji, wato, Isra’ila.
7 You must kill your master [King Joram], the son of Ahab, because I want to punish [Ahab’s wife] Jezebel for murdering [MTY] many of my prophets and other people who served me.
Za aka hallaka gidan Ahab maigidanka, zan kuma ɗauki fansar jinin bayina annabawa da kuma jinin dukan bayin Ubangiji da Yezebel ta zub da.
8 You must kill [not only Joram but] all of Ahab’s family. I want to get rid of every male in the family, including young ones and old ones.
Dukan gidan Ahab zai hallaka. Zan kashe dukan’ya’yan Ahab maza a Isra’ila, bayi ko’yantattu.
9 I will get rid of Ahab’s family, like I got rid of the families of two other kings of Israel, Jeroboam and Baasha.
Zan mai da gidan Ahab kamar gidan Yerobowam ɗan Nebat da kuma kamar gidan Ba’asha ɗan Ahiya.
10 And [when] Jezebel [dies], her corpse will not be buried. Dogs will eat her corpse there in Jezreel [city].’” After the young prophet said this, he left the room and ran.
Game da Yezebel kuwa, karnuka za su cinye ta a fili a Yezireyel, ba kuwa wanda zai binne ta.’” Sa’an nan ya buɗe ƙofa ya ruga a guje.
11 When Jehu came out of the room to where his other commanders were, they said to him, “Is everything all right? Why did that mad fellow come to you?” He replied, “You know what kinds of things young prophets like him say.”
Da Yehu ya koma wurin sauran hafsoshin sai ɗaya daga cikinsu ya tambaye shi, “Lafiya? Me ya kawo wannan mahaukaci a wurinka?” Sai Yehu ya ce, “Ka san mahaukacin nan da irin maganganunsa.”
12 They said, “You are lying! Tell us what he said!” He replied, “He told me that Yahweh said, ‘I am appointing [MTY] you to be the king of Israel.’”
Suka ce masa, “Ba gaskiya ba ne, ka dai faɗa mana.” Yehu ya ce, “Ga abin da ya ce mini, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, na naɗa ka sarki a bisa Isra’ila.’”
13 Then they all spread their cloaks on the steps of the building [for Jehu to walk out on], and they blew trumpets and shouted, “Jehu is now the king!”
Sai suka yi sauri suka ɗauki rigunansu suka shimfiɗa a ƙasa, suka busa kakaki, suka yi ihu, suka ce, “Yehu ne sarki.”
14 King Joram and his army had been defending Ramoth against the attacks by the army of the king of Syria. King Joram had returned to Jezreel [city], to recover from being wounded in the battle against the army of Hazael, the king of Syria. And Jehu made plans to kill Joram. He said to his other commanders, “If helping me is truly what you want, make sure that no one leaves this city to go to warn the people of Jezreel [about what I am planning to do].”
Saboda haka, Yehu ɗan Yehoshafat, ɗan Nimshi, ya ƙulla wa Yoram maƙarƙashiya (To, Yoram da dukan Isra’ila suna kāre Ramot Gileyad daga Hazayel sarkin Aram,
amma Sarki Yoram ya koma Yezireyel don yă farfaɗo daga raunukan da Arameyawa suka ji masa a wata gabzawar da ya yi da Hazayel sarkin Aram.) Yehu ya ce, “In haka kuke ji, kada ku bar wani yă sulluɓe daga birnin yă kai labarin Yezireyel.”
16 Then Jehu and his officers got into their chariots and rode to Jezreel, where Joram was still recovering. And King Ahaziah of Judah was there, visiting Joram.
Sai ya tashi ya ɗauki keken yaƙinsa ya tafi Yezireyel gama Yoram yana hutawa a can. Ga kuma Ahaziya sarkin Yahuda ya je don yă gan shi.
17 A guard was standing in the watchtower in Jezreel. He saw Jehu and his men approaching. He called out, “I see a lot of men [who are approaching]!” King Joram [heard what the watchman said, so he] said to his soldiers, “Send someone on a horse to go and find out if they are coming to be friendly to us or to attack us.”
Mai tsaro kuwa yana tsaye a kan hasumiya a Yezireyel, sai ya hangi rundunar Yehu sa’ad da yake zuwa. Ya ce, “Na ga wata runduna.” Sai Yoram ya umarta, “Nemi mahayin doki a aike shi yă tarye su, yă kuma tambaye su, ‘Lafiya?’”
18 So a man rode out to meet Jehu and said to him, “The king wants to know [if you are coming to be] friendly to us.” Jehu replied, “This is not the time for you [RHQ] to be concerned about acting friendly! Turn around and come behind me!” So the guard in the watchtower reported that the messenger had reached the group [that was approaching], but that he was not returning [alone].
Sai mahayin dokin ya hau, ya ruga, ya taryi Yehu, ya ce, “Ga abin da sarki ya ce, ‘Lafiya?’” Sai Yehu ya ce masa, “Ina ruwanka da zancen lafiya? Ka shiga layi.” Sai mai tsaron ya ce wa sarki, “Ɗan saƙon ya kai wurinsu, amma ba ya dawowa.”
19 So King Joram sent another messenger, who asked Jehu the same question. Again Jehu replied, “This is not the time [RHQ] for you to be concerned about acting friendly! Turn around and follow me!”
Saboda haka sarki ya sāke aika mahayin doki na biyu. Sa’ad da ya isa wurinsu sai ya ce, “Ga abin da sarki ya ce, ‘Lafiya?’” Yehu ya ce, “Ina ruwanka da zancen lafiya? Ka shiga layi.”
20 Then the watchman reported again, “That messenger also reached them, but he is not coming back [alone]. And [the leader of the group must be] Jehu, the son of Nimshi, because he is driving [his chariot] furiously, [like Jehu does]!”
Mai tsaro ya sāke cewa, “Ya kai wurinsu, amma shi ma ba ya dawowa. Ina ganin sukuwar kamar irin ta Yehu, jikan Nimshi, gama yakan yi sukuwa kamar mahaukaci.”
21 Joram said [to his soldiers], “Get [my chariot] ready!” So they did that. Then King Joram and King Ahaziah both rode toward Jehu, each one in his own chariot. And [it happened that] they met Jehu at the field that had previously belonged to Naboth!
Yoram ya umarta, “Haɗa mini keken yaƙi!” Da aka haɗa, sai Yoram sarkin Isra’ila, da Ahaziya sarkin Yahuda, suka hau suka tafi, kowa a keken yaƙinsa, don su taryi Yehu. Suka sadu da shi a filin da yake na Nabot mutumin Yezireyel.
22 When Joram met Jehu, he said to him, “Are you coming on a peaceful visit?” Jehu replied, “(How can there be peace while you and your people are prostrating themselves to worship idols and practicing very much (witchcraft/sorcery) like your mother Jezebel did?/There certainly cannot be peace while you and your people are prostrating themselves to worship idols and practicing (witchcraft/sorcery) like your mother Jezebel has been doing!)” [RHQ]
Sa’ad da Yoram ya ga Yehu sai ya tambaye shi, “Lafiya kuwa ka zo, Yehu?” Yehu ya ce, “Ina kuwa lafiya, da yake dukan bautar gumaka da bokancin mahaifiyarka Yezebel sun bazu ko’ina?”
23 Joram cried out, “Ahaziah, they have deceived us! [They want to kill us]!” So Joram turned his chariot around and tried to flee.
Yoram ya juya, ya gudu, yana ce wa Ahaziya, “Cin amana, Ahaziya!”
24 But Jehu drew his bow mightily and shot [an arrow that pierced] Joram between his shoulder blades. The arrow [went through his body and] pierced his heart, and he slumped down dead in his chariot.
Sai Yehu ya ja bakansa ya harbi Yoram a tsakanin kafaɗunsa. Kibiyar ta same shi a zuciyarsa sai ya fāɗi a cikin keken yaƙinsa.
25 Then Jehu said to his assistant Bidkar, “Take his corpse and throw it here into the field that belonged to Naboth. [I am sure that] you remember that when you and I were riding together [in chariots] behind King Joram’s father Ahab, that Yahweh said this about Ahab:
Yehu ya ce wa Bidkar, hafsan keken yaƙinsa, “Ka ɗauke shi ka jefar a filin da yake na Nabot mutumin Yezireyel. Ka tuna yadda ni da kai muke a kekunan yaƙi a bayan Ahab mahaifinsa sa’ad da Ubangiji ya yi wannan annabci game da shi,
26 ‘Yesterday I saw Ahab murder [MTY] Naboth and his sons here. And I solemnly promise that I will punish him right here in this same field!’ So take Joram’s corpse and throw it into that field! That will fulfill what Yahweh said would happen.”
‘Jiya na ga jinin Nabot da jinin’ya’yansa, in ji Ubangiji, kuma ba shakka zan ɗauki fansa a wannan fili, in ji Ubangiji.’ Saboda haka, ka ɗauke shi ka jefar da shi a bisa wannan fegi, bisa ga faɗin Ubangiji. Saboda haka, ka ɗauke shi ka jefar a filin, in ji Ubangiji.”
27 When King Ahaziah saw what happened, he fled [in his chariot] toward Beth-Haggan [town]. But Jehu pursued him and said [to his other commanders], “Shoot him, also!” So they shot him [with arrows] while he was riding in his chariot on the road up to Gur, near Ibleam [town]. He continued going in his chariot until he reached Megiddo [city], where he died.
Sa’ad da Ahaziya sarkin Yahuda ya ga abin da ya faru, sai ya haura hanyar Bet Haggan a guje. Yehu ya bi shi yana ihu, “A kashe shi, shi ma!” Suka ji masa rauni a keken yaƙinsa a hanya zuwa Gur, kusa da Ibileyam amma ya tsere zuwa Megiddo ya mutu a can.
28 His officials took his corpse back to Jerusalem and buried it in the tombs in the [part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried.
Barorinsa suka ɗauke shi cikin keken yaƙi zuwa Urushalima suka binne shi a kabarinsa tare da kakanninsa a birnin Dawuda.
29 Ahaziah had become the king of Judah when Joram had been ruling Israel for almost eleven years.
(A shekara ta goma sha ɗaya ta Yoram ɗan Ahab, Ahaziya ya zama sarkin Yahuda.)
30 Then Jehu went to Jezreel. When [Ahab’s widow] Jezebel heard what had happened, she put paint/makeup on her eyelids, and combed her hair to make it beautiful, and looked out the window [of the palace toward the street below].
Sa’an nan Yehu ya je Yezireyel. Sa’ad da Yezebel ta sami labari, sai ta sha kwalliya ta gyara gashin kanta, ta zauna tana kallo daga taga.
31 While Jehu was entering the city gate, she called out to him, “You [are like] Zimri! You are a murderer! [I think] you are certainly not [RHQ] coming on a peaceful visit!”
Yayinda Yehu ya shiga ƙofa, sai ta ce, “Lafiya, kai Zimri, mai kashe maigidansa?”
32 Jehu looked up toward the window, and then he said, “Who is (on my side/wants to help me)? Anyone?” Two or three palace officials looked down at him [from a window and pointed to themselves].
Sai ya ɗaga ido ya dubi tagan ya ce, “Wa yake gefena? Wane ne?” Sai bābānni biyu ko uku suka leƙo suka dube shi.
33 Jehu said to them, “Throw her down here!” So they threw her down, and [when she hit the ground and died], some of her blood splattered on the city wall and on the horses [that were pulling the chariots].
Yehu ya ce musu, “Ku jefa ta ƙasa!” Sai suka jefar da ita, jininta ya fantsama a jikin bango da kuma a jikin dawakai yayinda suke tattaka ta.
34 Then Jehu went into the palace and ate and drank. Then he said [to some of his men], “Take the corpse of that women whom Yahweh has cursed and bury it, because she is a king’s daughter [and therefore should be buried properly].”
Yehu ya shiga ya ci, ya kuma sha. Ya ce, “Ku san yadda za ku yi da la’ananniyan nan, ku binne ta, gama’yar sarki ce.”
35 But when they went to get her corpse to bury it, all that was left was only her skull and [the bones of] her feet and her hands. Everything else was gone.
Amma sa’ad da suka je don su binne ta, ba su sami kome ba sai ƙoƙon kanta, ƙafafunta da kuma hannuwanta.
36 When they reported this to Jehu, he said, “That is what Yahweh said would happen! He told his servant/prophet Elijah, ‘In [the city of] Jezreel, dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel’s corpse.
Suka komo suka faɗa wa Yehu, wanda ya ce, “Wannan ita ce maganar da Ubangiji ya faɗa ta bakin bawansa Iliya mutumin Tishbe. A fili, a Yezireyel, karnuka za su cinye naman Yezebel.
37 Her bones will be scattered there in Jezreel like dung, with the result that no one will be able to [recognize them and] say, “These are Jezebel’s bones.”’”
Gawar Yezebel zai zama kamar juji a ƙasa, a fili, a Yezireyel, har ba wanda zai iya cewa, ‘Wannan Yezebel ce.’”
