< 2 Kings 10 >

1 Now Ahab had seventy descendants in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, including the elders and the guardians of Ahab's descendants, saying,
E piny Samaria ne nitie yawuowi piero abiriyo mawuok e dhood Ahab. Kuom mano Jehu nondiko barupe mooro Samaria ne jotend Jezreel, ne jodonge kod jorit mag nyithind Ahab kowachonegi niya,
2 “Your master's descendants are with you, and you also have chariots and horses and a fortified city and armor. So then, as soon as this letter comes to you,
“E sa ma baruwani nochopnue, nikech un gi yawuot ruodhu kod geche lweny gi farese, gi dala maduongʼ mochiel motegno kod gige lweny,
3 select the best and most deserving of your master's descendants and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's royal line.”
yieruru achiel kuom yawuot ruoth mowinjore kendo ukete obed e loch wuon-gi. Bangʼ mano ikreuru mondo uked ne dhood ruodhu.”
4 But they were terrified and said among themselves, “See, the two kings could not stand before Jehu. So how can we stand?”
To kihondko ne ogoyogi magiwacho niya, “Ka ruodhi pinje ariyo ne ok nyal sire, wan to bende dwasire?”
5 Then the man who was in charge of the palace, and the man who was over the city, and the elders also, and they who raised the children, sent word back to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants. We will do everything that you command us. We will not make any man king. Do what is good in your eyes.”
Eka jatend dala ruoth, jatend dala maduongʼ, jodongo kod jorit mag nyithind Ahab nooro wachni ne Jehu kama: “Wan mana jotichni omiyo wabiro timo gimoro amora miwacho. Ok wabi yiero ngʼato e dierwa mondo obed ruoth, tim gima chunyi oneno ni ber.”
6 Then Jehu wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, “If you are on my side, and if you will listen to my voice, you must take the heads of the men of your master's descendants, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time.” Now the king's descendants, seventy in number, were with the important men of the city, who were bringing them up.
Eka Jehu nondikonegi baruwa mar ariyo mawacho niya, “Ka un jokora kendo ubiro winjo wachna, to ngʼaduru wiye yawuot ruodhu kendo kiny kochopo sa maka ma to ubi ira Jezreel.” E kindeno yawuot ruoth piero abiriyo ne ni kod jorit mag-gi mane gin jotend dala maduongʼno.
7 So when the letter came to them, they took the king's sons and killed them, seventy persons, put their heads in baskets, and sent them to Jehu in Jezreel.
Kane baruwa ochopo jogi nokawo yawuot ruoth piero abiriyogo ma ginego. Negikawo wiyegi ma giketogi ei okapu kendo giterone Jehu e piny Jezreel.
8 A messenger came to Jehu, saying, “They have brought the heads of the king's sons.” So he said, “Put them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.”
Kane jaote ochopo ne owacho ne Jehu niya, “Gisekelo wiye yawuot ruoth.” Eka Jehu nogolo chik niya, “Dhurgiuru pidhe ariyo e dhoranga dala maduongʼ nyaka piny yawre.”
9 In the morning Jehu went out and stood, and said to all the people, “You are innocent. See, I plotted against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?
Kinyne gokinyi machielono Jehu nowuok modhi ochungʼ e nyim oganda mowachonegi niya, “Un to uonge ketho makmana ni an ema ne ariwora gi ji ma andhogo ruodha kendo anege, to koro joma othogi duto, to ngʼama onego?
10 Now you should certainly realize that no part of Yahweh's word, the word that he spoke concerning the family of Ahab, will fall to the ground, for Yahweh has done what he spoke about through his servant Elijah.”
Koro ngʼeuru ni onge wach ma Jehova Nyasaye osewacho ewi od Ahab ma ok nochop kare. Jehova Nyasaye osetimo gima ne osingo kokalo kuom jatichne Elija.”
11 So Jehu killed all who remained in the family of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his important men, his close friends, and his priests, until none of them remained.
Omiyo Jehu nonego ji duto man Jezreel mane odongʼ e od Ahab, kaachiel gi jotende duto, osiepene kod jodolo mage duto, maonge ngʼama noweyo kangima.
12 Then Jehu arose and left; he went to Samaria. As he was arriving at Beth Eked of the shepherd,
Eka Jehu ne owuok kochomo yo Samaria. Kane ochopo kar jokwath miluongo ni Beth Eked,
13 he met brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah. Jehu said to them, “Who are you?” They answered, “We are brothers of Ahaziah, and we are going down to greet the children of the king and the children of Queen Jezebel.”
ne oromo gi wede Ahazia ruodh Juda moko mopenjogi niya, “Un ngʼa gini.” To negidwoko niya, “Wan wede Ahazia kendo ne walor mondo wamos joka ruoth kod min ruoth.”
14 Jehu said to his own men, “Take them alive.” So they took them alive and killed them at the well of Beth Eked, all forty-two men. He did not leave any of them alive.
Eka nogolo chik niya, “Makgiuru” Omiyo negimako ji piero angʼwen gariyogo ma gidhi kodgi e bath soko man Beth Eked ma ginegogi, kendo onge moro amora mane otony.
15 When Jehu had left there, he met Jehonadab son of Recab coming to meet him. Jehu greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart with me, as my heart is with yours?” Jehonadab answered, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, give me your hand.” So he gave Jehu his hand, and Jehu took Jehonadab up with him into the chariot.
Kane osea kanyo noyudo Jehonadab wuod Rekab, mane dhi romone. Jehu nomose mopenje niya, “Bende in koda e winjruok kaka an kodini?” Jehonadab nodwoke niya, Ee an kodi. Jehu nowachone niya, “Ka en kamano, to miya lweti.” Omiyo notimo kamano kendo nomako lwete moidho gach lweny.
16 Jehu said, “Come with me and see my zeal for Yahweh.” So he had Jonadab ride along with him in his chariot.
Jehu nowachone niya, “Bi mondo idhi koda mondo ineye kaka achiwora tiyone Jehova Nyasaye.” Eka negidhi kode koidho gache.
17 When he came to Samaria, Jehu killed all who remained from Ahab's descendants in Samaria, until he had destroyed Ahab's royal line, just as was told them before by the word of Yahweh, which he had spoken to Elijah.
Kane Jehu ochopo Samaria, nonego jood Ahab duto mane odongʼ, notiekogi kaluwore gi wach mane Jehova Nyasaye owachone Elija.
18 Then Jehu gathered all the people together and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.
Eka Jehu nochoko ji duto kanyakla mowachonegi niya, “Ahab ne otiyone Baal mana matin, to Jehu biro tiyone mangʼeny.
19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshipers, and all his priests. Let no one be left out, for I have a great sacrifice to offer to Baal. Whoever does not come will not live.” But Jehu did this deceitfully, with the intent to kill the worshipers of Baal.
Koro luong jonabi duto mag Baal, jodonge duto kod jodolone duto. Kik yudi ni ngʼato kuomgi onge nikech adhi timo nyasi mar misango maduongʼ ne Baal. Ngʼato angʼata ma ok ochopo e nyasino to ok nobed mangima.” To Jehu ne wuondore nimar ne odwaro kaka doneg jodong Baal duto.
20 Jehu said, “Set a time to have an assembly for Baal.” So they announced it.
Jehu nowacho niya, “Timuru chokruok maduongʼ mar Baal.” Omiyo negilando wachno.
21 Then Jehu sent throughout all Israel and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. They came into the temple of Baal, and it was filled from one end to another.
Eka nooro wach e piny Israel duto mi jodong Baal duto nobiro; kendo onge kata mana ngʼato achiel mane odongʼ. Negipongʼo ii hekaluno duto koni gi koni.
22 Jehu said to the man who kept the priest's wardrobe, “Bring out robes for all the worshipers of Baal.” So the man brought out robes to them.
Kendo Jehu nowachone jarit kar keno mar lewni niya, “Keluru kandhe moromo jodong Baal duto.” Omiyo nokelo kandhe moromogi duto.
23 So Jehu went with Jehonadab son of Recab into the house of Baal, and he said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search and make sure that there is no one here with you from the servants of Yahweh, but the worshipers of Baal alone.”
Bangʼ mano Jehu gi Jehonadab wuod Rekab nodhi ei hekalu mar Baal. Jehu nowachone jodong Baal duto niya, “Neuru ni onge jatich Jehova Nyasaye moro amora kodu ka makmana jodong Baal.”
24 Then they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had chosen eighty men who were standing outside, and he told them, “If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escapes, whoever lets that man escape, his life will be taken for the life of the one who escaped.”
Eka negidonjo ei hekaluno mondo gichiw misengini miwangʼo pep kod liswa. Noyudo Jehu oseketo ji piero aboro oko momiyogi siem kama: “Kapo ni ngʼato moro kuomu oweyo achiel kuom jogi otony, to ngimani nokaw kar ngimane.”
25 So then as soon as Jehu finished offering the burnt offering, he said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them. Let no one come out.” So they killed them with the edge of the sword, and the guard and the captains threw them out and went into the inner room of the house of Baal.
Sa mane Jehu osetieko misango miwangʼo pep, ne ogolo chikne jorit gi jotelo kama: “Donjuru kendo uneg-gi, kendo kik uwe moro otony.” Omiyo neginegogi gi ligangla. Jorit kod jotelogo nowito ringregi oko kendo negidonjo nyaka ei agola mar hekalu mar Baal.
26 They dragged out the stone pillars that were in the house of Baal, and they burned them.
Bangʼe negigolo oko kido milamo e hekalu mar Baal mi giwangʼe.
27 Then they broke down the pillar of Baal, and destroyed the house of Baal and made it a latrine, which it is to this day.
Negitoyo kidi milamo kendo gimuko hekalu mar Baal kendo kanyo ji osebedo katiyogo kaka choo nyaka chil kawuono.
28 That is how Jehu destroyed Baal worship from Israel.
Omiyo Jehu noketho lamo Baal e piny Israel.
29 But Jehu did not leave the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, by which he made Israel sin—that is, the worship of the golden calves in Bethel and Dan.
Kata kamano ne ok olokore oweyo richo mar Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyo jo-Israel odonje richo mar lamo nyaroya mar mula mochwe e Bethel kod Dan.
30 So Yahweh said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in executing what was right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Jehu niya, “Nikech isetimo maber mondo ichop gima nikare e wangʼa kendo isetimo ne od Ahab gik mane ni e pacha, ogandani nobed e loch mar Israel nyaka tiengʼ mar angʼwen.”
31 But Jehu took no care to walk in the law of Yahweh, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam, by which he made Israel sin.
Kata kamano Jehu ne ok oritore kuom mako chike Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel gi chunye duto. Bende ne ok olokore e richo Jeroboam, mane omiyo jo-Israel otimo.
32 In those days Yahweh began to cut off regions from Israel, and Hazael defeated the Israelites at the borders of Israel,
E kindeno Jehova Nyasaye nochako dwoko kwan mar jo-Israel piny, Hazael noloyo jo-Israel e pinjegi duto,
33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, through Gilead to Bashan.
chakre aora Jordan kochomo yo wuok chiengʼ kaachiel gi pinje duto mag Gilead (ma gin gwenge mag Gad, Reuben kod Manase), kendo chakre Aroer manie bath aora Arnon kokadho Gilead nyaka Bashan.
34 As for the other matters concerning Jehu, and all that he did, and all his power, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
To kuom weche moko mondiki e sigand loch Jehu, gik mane otimo, gima ne ochopo kare, donge ondikgi e kitabu motingʼo weche mag ruodhi jo-Israel?
35 Jehu slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in Samaria. Then Jehoahaz his son became king in his place.
Jehu notho moyweyo gi kwerene kendo ne oike e piny Samaria mi Jehoahaz wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
36 The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
Ndalo mane Jehu obedo gi loch e piny Israel ka en Samaria noromo higni piero ariyo gaboro.
