< 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.
Markaasaa Eliishaa u yeedhay mid qoonkii nebiyada ka mid ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War guntiga isku giiji, oo weelkan saliidda ahna gacanta ku sii qaado, oo waxaad tagtaa Raamod Gilecaad.
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,
Oo markaad halkaas tagto waxaad doondoontaa Yeehuu ina Yehooshaafaad oo ahaa ina Nimshii, oo u tag oo walaalihiis ka dhex kici, oo intaad kaxaysid qol hoose la gal.
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.”
Oo markaas waxaad qaadataa weelka saliidda ah oo madaxiisa ku shub, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Waxaan kuu subkay inaad ahaato boqor u taliya dalka Israa'iil. Oo markaas intaad albaabka furtid carar oo innaba ha raagin.
4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth.
Sidaas daraaddeed ninkii dhallinyarada ahaa oo nebiga ahaa wuxuu tegey Raamod Gilecaad.
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.”
Oo markuu yimid ayuu arkay saraakiishii ciidanka oo fadhida; oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Sirkaalow, farriin baan kuu wadaa. Markaasaa Yeehuu yidhi, Kayagee baad u waddaa? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Adigaan kuu wadaa, sirkaalow.
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.
Oo markaasuu intuu kacay ayuu gurigii galay, dabadeedna saliiddii buu madaxiisa ku shubay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Waxaan kuu subkay inaad ahaato boqor u taliya dadka Ilaah oo ah dadka Israa'iil.
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.
Oo adna waa inaad laysaa reerka Axaab ee sayidkaaga, inaan ka aargudo dhiiggii addoommadaydii nebiyada ahaa, iyo addoommadii Rabbiga oo dhan ee ay Yesebeel daadisay.
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.
Waayo, Axaab reerkiisa oo dhammu waa halligmayaa; oo Axaab waan ka baabbi'in doonaa wiil kasta ha ahaado mid kasta oo dalka Israa'iil ku dhex xidhan ama mid kasta oo ku dhex furan.
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.
Oo reerka Axaab waxaan ka dhigayaa sidii reerkii Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad iyo sidii reerkii Bacshaa ina Axiiyaah oo kale.
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.
Oo Yesebeel ayaa eeydu ku cuni doonaan dhulka Yesreceel, oo ninna iyada ma xabaali doono, oo markaasuu albaabkii furay oo cararay.
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.”
Markaasaa Yeehuu u soo baxay addoommadii sayidkiisii; oo midkood baa wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, War wax waluba ma hagaagsan yihiin? Ninkan waalanu muxuu kuugu yimid? Oo isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Idinku waad garanaysaan ninka iyo hadalkiisu wuxuu ahaaba.
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.’”
Oo iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Taasu waa been; ee bal hadda noo sheeg. Markaasuu yidhi, Saas iyo saas buu igula hadlay, oo igu yidhi, Rabbigu wuxuu kugu leeyahay, Waxaan kuu subkay inaad ahaato boqor u taliya dalka Israa'iil.
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!”
Markaasay dhaqsadeen oo nin waliba wuxuu qaatay dharkiisii, oo hoostiisay dhigeen jaranjarada dusheeda, buun bayna ku dhufteen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Yeehuu waa boqor.
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].”
Sidaasuu Yeehuu ina Yehooshaafaad oo ahaa ina Nimshii u shirqoolay Yooraam. (Haddaba Yooraam iyo dadka Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay u sii haysteen Raamod Gilecaad Xasaa'eel oo ahaa boqorkii Suuriya daraaddiis,
laakiinse Boqor Yooraam wuxuu ku noqday Yesreceel in laga soo daweeyo nabrihii reer Suuriya ku dhufteen markuu la diriray boqorkii reer Suuriya oo Xasaa'eel ahaa). Markaasaa Yeehuu wuxuu yidhi, Hadday idinla wanaagsan tahay yaan ninna baxsan oo magaalada ka bixin si uu intuu Yesreceel tago xaalkan u sheego.
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.
Markaasuu Yeehuu gaadhifaras fuulay, oo wuxuu tegey xagga Yesreceel, waayo, Yooraam baa halkaas jiifay, oo Axasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudahna wuxuu u yimid inuu Yooraam arko.
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.”
Haddaba waardiyihii wuxuu kor taagnaa noobiyaddii Yesreceel, oo wuxuu arkay kooxdii Yeehuu oo soo socota; markaasuu yidhi, Waxaan u jeedaa koox. Yooraamna wuxuu yidhi, Nin faras wata u dir, oo ha ka hor tago, oo ha ku yidhaahdo, War ma nabad baa?
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].
Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa tegey mid faras ku jooga inuu isaga ka hor tago, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Boqorkii wuxuu ku leeyahay, Ma nabad baa? Oo Yeehuu baa wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaa nabad kaa galay? I soo daba gal. Markaasaa ninkii waardiyaha ahaa wuxuu yidhi, Ninkii wargeeyska ahaa wuu u tegey iyagii, laakiinse soo noqon maayo.
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!”
Markaasuu haddana diray mid labaad oo faras ku jooga, oo isna intuu u tegey ayuu ku yidhi, Boqorkii wuxuu ku leeyahay, Ma nabad baa? Oo Yeehuu baa ugu jawaabay, War maxaa nabad kaa galay? I soo daba gal.
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]!”
Markaasaa ninkii waardiyaha ahaa yidhi, Isna wuu u tegey iyagii, laakiinse soo noqon maayo, oo socodkuna wuxuu u eg yahay sidii socodkii Yeehuu ina Nimshii; waayo, wuxuu gaadhifaraskiisa u kaxeeyaa sidii isagoo waalan.
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!
Markaasaa Yooraam yidhi, Gaadhifaras diyaariya. Oo iyana gaadhifaraskiisii ayay diyaariyeen. Kolkaasaa Yooraam oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Israa'iil iyo Axasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudahba waxay baxeen isagoo mid waliba gaadhifaraskiisii ku jiro, oo waxay u baxeen inay Yeehuu ka hor tagaan, oo waxay ka heleen beertii Naabood kii reer Yesreceel.
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]
Oo markii Yooraam Yeehuu arkay ayuu ku yidhi, War Yeehuu, ma nabad baa? Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, War xaggee nabadu joogtaa inta hooyadaa Yesebeel dhillanimadeedii iyo sixirnimadeediiba ay aad u badan yihiin?
23 Joram cried out, “Ahaziah, they have deceived us! [They want to kill us]!” So Joram turned his chariot around and tried to flee.
Markaasaa Yooraam intuu faraskii dib u ceshaday ayuu cararay oo wuxuu Axasyaah ku yidhi, War Axasyaah, tanu waa khiyaano.
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.
Markaasaa Yeehuu qaansadiisii ku xooday xooggiisii oo dhan, oo Yooraam ku dhuftay labada garab dhexdooda, oo fallaadhiina waxay ka mudhbaxday wadnaha, markaasuu ku dhex dhacay gaadhifaraskiisii.
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:
Kolkaasaa Yeehuu wuxuu ku yidhi Bidqar oo sirkaalkiisii ahaa, Isaga kor u qaad oo ku dhex tuur beerta Naabood kii reer Yesreceel; waayo, bal xusuuso sidii Rabbigu isaga hadalkan culus uga sheegay markaynu aniga iyo adiguba innagoo fardo fuushan aabbihiis Axaab daba soconnay;
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.”
Rabbigu wuxuu yidhi, Hubaal shalayto waxaan arkay Naabood dhiiggiisii iyo dhiiggii wiilashiisii, haddaba adiga beertan baan abaalkaaga kugu siinayaa. Sidaas daraaddeed isaga qaad oo beerta ku dhex tuur sidii erayga Rabbigu ahaa.
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.
Laakiinse Axasyaah oo ahaa boqorkii dalka Yahuudah markuu taas arkay ayuu u cararay xagga gurigii beerta. Oo Yeehuuna wuu eryaday oo wuxuu yidhi, War isagana gaadhifaraskiisa ku dhex dila. Markaasay isagii ku dileen jiirtii Guur oo Yiblecaam ku ag taal. Wuuna u cararay xagga Megiddoo oo halkaasuu ku dhintay.
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.
Addoommadiisii ayaa gaadhifaras xagga Yeruusaalem ugu qaaday, oo qabrigiisii ayay awowayaashiis kula aaseen magaaladii Daa'uud dhexdeeda.
29 Ahaziah had become the king of Judah when Joram had been ruling Israel for almost eleven years.
Oo Axasyaah wuxuu dalka Yahuudah boqor ka noqday sannaddii kow iyo tobnaad oo Yooraam ina Axaab.
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].
Oo Yeehuu markuu Yesreceel yimid ayaa Yesebeel maqashay, markaasay intay indhakuulatay oo gambaysatay daaqaddii ka fiirisay.
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!”
Oo markii Yeehuu iriddii ka soo galay ayay tidhi, Simriigii sayidkiisii dilayow, ma nabad baa?
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].
Oo isna intuu kor u eegay xagga daaqaddii ayuu yidhi, War yaa ila gees ah? Yaa ila gees ah? Markaasaa waxaa soo fiiriyey laba ama saddex nin oo bohon ah.
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].
Kolkaasuu ku yidhi, Soo tuura iyada. Iyana way soo tuureen, oo dhiiggeedii waxaa qaar ku saydhmay derbigii iyo fardihii; oo isna kolkaasuu iyadii ku tuntay.
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].”
Oo markuu meeshii galay ayuu wax cunay oo wax cabbay, dabadeedna wuxuu yidhi, Bal naagtan habaaran u jeesta oo aasa, waayo, iyadu waa ina boqor.
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.
Oo iyana waxay u tageen inay iyadii soo aasaan, laakiinse waxba kama ay helin dhaladii iyo cagihii iyo calaacalihii gacmaheeda mooyaane.
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.
Sidaas daraaddeed way soo noqdeen, oo isagii bay u soo sheegeen. Wuxuuna yidhi, Kanu waa eraygii Rabbigu kaga hadlay addoonkiisii Eliiyaah kii reer Tishbii isagoo leh, Beerta Yesreceel dhexdeeda ayaa eeydu ku cuni doonaan Yesebeel hilibkeeda.
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.”’”
Oo Yesebeel meydkeedu wuxuu ahaan doonaa sida digo taal beerta Yesreceel dhexdeeda, si aan loo odhan, Tanu waa Yesebeel.
