< 2 Kings 10 >

1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up Ahab’s sons, saying,
Oasr tulik itngoul ke fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Ahab su muta in siti Samaria. Jehu el simusla leta se ac supwalik nu sin kais sie mwet leum lun siti uh, nu sin un mwet matu, ac nu sin mwet ma karingin fwilin tulig natul Ahab. Pa inge koanon leta sac:
2 “Now as soon as this letter comes to you, since your master’s sons are with you, and you have chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armour,
“Kowos pa mwet liyaung fwilin tulik natul tokosra, ke ma inge chariot, horse, mwe mweun, ac siti ma potyak, oan inpouwos. Ouinge, pacl se na ma kowos riti leta se inge,
3 select the best and fittest of your master’s sons, set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.”
kowos sulela mwet se ma fal emeet sin wen nukewa natul tokosra, ac kowos in akleumyal, na kowos in mweun in loangella.”
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, “Behold, the two kings didn’t stand before him! How then shall we stand?”
Mwet leum lun Samaria elos arulana sangeng. Elos fahk, “Kut ac lainul Jehu fuka, ke Tokosra Joram ac Tokosra Ahaziah tuh tia ku in lainul?”
5 He who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who raised the children, sent to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants, and will do all that you ask us. We will not make any man king. You do that which is good in your eyes.”
Ouinge mwet kol se su liyaung inkul sin tokosra, ac mwet kol se su liyaung siti uh, weang pac mwet matu, ac mwet karingin sou lal Ahab, elos supwala kas inge nu sel Jehu: “Kut mwet kulansap lom, ac kut akola in oru kutena ma kom fahk an. Tusruktu kut tia ku in srukak kutena mwet in tokosra. Oru na ma kom nunku mu ac wo sum an.”
6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, “If you are on my side, and if you will listen to my voice, take the heads of the men who are your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time.” Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
Jehu el sifilpa simusla sie leta nu selos su fahk: “Kowos fin wiyu lac, ac akola in oru ma nga sapkin, kowos use sifen mwet nukewa in sou lal Tokosra Ahab nu yuruk in acn Jezreel ke pacl se pacna inge lutu.” Tulik itngoul ke fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Ahab elos muta yurin mwet matu Samaria, su tufahlosla.
7 When the letter came to them, they took the king’s sons and killed them, even seventy people, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
Ke pacl se mwet matu inge eis leta lal Jehu, na elos twacla kwawen tulik itngoul in sou lal Ahab ah nufon, sang sifalos nu in fotoh, ac supwala nu sel Jehu in acn Jezreel!
8 A messenger came and told him, “They have brought the heads of the king’s sons.” He said, “Lay them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.”
Ke fwackyang nu sel Jehu lah sifen tulik natul Ahab nukewa utuku, el sap elos in yolsani nu ke yol luo ke mutunpot nu in siti uh, ac filiya in oanna we nu ke lotu tok ah.
9 In the morning, he went out and stood, and said to all the people, “You are righteous. Behold, I conspired against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?
In lotu tok ah, el som nu ke mutunpot sac, ac fahk nu sin mwet su muta we, “Nga pa mwet se ma orek tunyuna ac unilya Tokosra Joram. Wangin mwatuwos kac. A su uniya nufon mwet inge uh?
10 Know now that nothing will fall to the earth of the LORD’s word, which the LORD spoke concerning Ahab’s house. For the LORD has done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.”
Ma inge akpwayei lah ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu ac sikyak nu sin fwilin tulik natul Ahab uh ac pwayena. LEUM GOD El oru oana ma El wulela kac in kas lal Elijah, mwet palu lal.”
11 So Jehu struck all that remained of Ahab’s house in Jezreel, with all his great men, his familiar friends, and his priests, until he left him no one remaining.
Na Jehu el onela nufon mwet lula in sou lal Ahab su muta in Jezreel, ac leum nukewa lun mwet mweun, ac mwet kawuk na pwaye lal, ac mwet tol kewa — wangin sie selos tia anwuki.
12 He arose and departed, and went to Samaria. As he was at the shearing house of the shepherds on the way,
Jehu el som liki acn Jezreel nu Samaria. Ke el sun acn se pangpang “Nien Aktuktuk lun Mwet Liyaung Sheep”
13 Jehu met with the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, “Who are you?” They answered, “We are the brothers of Ahaziah. We are going down to greet the children of the king and the children of the queen.”
el sun kutu mwet in sou lal Tokosra Ahaziah lun Judah, ac siyuk selos, “Su kowos an?” Elos topuk, “Kut sou lal Ahaziah. Kut fahsr nu Jezreel in oru akfulat lasr nu sin tulik natul Kasra Jezebel ac nu sin oaleum saya.”
14 He said, “Take them alive!” They took them alive, and killed them at the pit of the shearing house, even forty-two men. He didn’t leave any of them.
Jehu el sap nu sin mwet lal, “Sapmoulelosi!” Elos sruokolosi ac el onelosla ke acn se apkuran nu ke luf se we. Elos mwet angngaul luo nufon, ac wangin sie selos moul.
15 When he had departed from there, he met Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him. He greeted him, and said to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart is with your heart?” Jehonadab answered, “It is.” “If it is, give me your hand.” He gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
Jehu el sifilpa mukuiyak in som inkanek lal, na el sonol Jonadab, wen natul Rechab, su fahsr in osun nu sel. Jehu el paingul ac fahk, “Nunak luk kom uh oana sie. Kom lungse wiyu kasreyu?” Jonadab el topuk, “Nga lungse.” Ac Jehu el fahk, “Fin pwaye, kom se poum.” Eltal asruokpola, na Jehu el kasrelak nu fin chariot natul ah,
16 He said, “Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD.” So they made him ride in his chariot.
ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu, ac sifacna liye lupan inse pwaye luk nu sin LEUM GOD.” Ac eltal tukeni kasrusr nwe Samaria.
17 When he came to Samaria, he struck all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, until he had destroyed them, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke to Elijah.
Ke eltal sun acn we, Jehu el uniya nufon sou lal Ahab, ac tia likiya siefanna. Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel Elijah mu ac sikyak.
18 Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.
Jehu el pangoneni mwet Samaria ac fahk nu selos, “Tokosra Ahab el tuh kulansupu god Baal kutu srisrik, a nga ac kulansupal arulana yohk lukel.
19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all of his worshippers, and all of his priests. Let no one be absent, for I have a great sacrifice to Baal. Whoever is absent, he shall not live.” But Jehu did deceptively, intending to destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Pangoneni mwet palu lal Baal nukewa, mwet alu nu sel nukewa, ac mwet tol lal nukewa. Ac fah wangin mwet tia wi tukeni se inge. Nga ac oru sie kisa na yohk nu sel Baal, ac mwet se fin tia tuku, ac fah anwuki.” (Ma se inge kikiap se lal Jehu, mweyen el oru elan uniya mwet nukewa ma alu nu sel Baal.)
20 Jehu said, “Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal!” So they proclaimed it.
Na Jehu el sapkin ac fahk, “Oakiya ac sulkakinelik sie len in alu in akfulatyal Baal!” Oakwuk sac orekla ac solyak,
21 Jehu sent through all Israel; and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that didn’t come. They came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to another.
ac Jehu el supwalik kas nu in acn nukewa Israel. Mwet nukewa su alu nu sel Baal elos tuku, ac wangin sie selos tia tuku. Elos nukewa utyak nu in tempul lal Baal, ac nwakla in lohm sac nufon.
22 He said to him who kept the wardrobe, “Bring out robes for all the worshippers of Baal!” So he brought robes out to them.
Na Jehu el sap mwet tol se ma liyaung nuknuk mutal, elan use nuknuk uh sang nu sin mwet ac alu uh.
23 Jehu went with Jehonadab the son of Rechab into the house of Baal. Then he said to the worshippers of Baal, “Search, and see that none of the servants of the LORD are here with you, but only the worshippers of Baal.”
Tukun ma inge Jehu ac Jonadab wen natul Rechab, eltal som nu in tempul sac, ac Jehu el fahk nu sin mwet su muta we, “Liyaung na tuh in mwet na ma alu nu sin Baal mukena pa utyak, ac wangin mwet alu nu sin LEUM GOD in wi utyak.”
24 So they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had appointed for himself eighty men outside, and said, “If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escape, he who lets him go, his life shall be for the life of him.”
Ouinge Jehu ac Jonadab utyak in kisakin mwe kisa ac mwe kisa firir nu sel Baal. Jehu el tuh oakiya mwet oalngoul likinuma ac fahk nu selos, “Onela nufon mwet inge! Mwet se fin fuhlela sie sin mwet inge in kaingla ac tia anwuki, na ac fah anwuki el!”
25 As soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them! Let no one escape.” So they struck them with the edge of the sword. The guard and the captains threw the bodies out, and went to the inner shrine of the house of Baal.
Tukunna Jehu el orala kisa inge, na el sap nu sin mwet mweun ac mwet kol lalos, “Tal utyak ac onela nufon mwet inge! Nimet lela siefanna in kaingla!” Elos faisak cutlass natulos, utyak ac onelosla nufon, ac amakunla manolos nu likinuma. Na elos sifil utyak nu infukil se oan oe luin tempul sac,
26 They brought out the pillars that were in the house of Baal and burnt them.
ac usya sru oal soko ma oan we ac esukak.
27 They broke down the pillar of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a latrine, to this day.
Na elos kunausla sru oal soko, ac tempul sac, ac ekulla tempul sac nu ke lohm fahsr se, su oanna nwe misenge.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
Pa inge ma Jehu el oru in kunausla alu nu sel Baal in acn Israel nufon.
29 However, Jehu didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin—the golden calves that were in Bethel and that were in Dan.
Tusruktu el etai ma koluk lal Tokosra Jeroboam, su tuh kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk ke elos alu nu ke ma sruloala gold in luman cow mukul srisrik, su el oakiya in acn Bethel ac Dan.
30 The LORD said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and have done to Ahab’s house according to all that was in my heart, your descendants shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Jehu, “Ma nukewa ma nga lungse kom in oru nu sin fwilin tulik natul Ahab, kom orala nufon. Ouinge nga wulela nu sum lah wen nutum ac fah tokosra lun Israel nwe ke fwil se akakosr.”
31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He didn’t depart from the sins of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin.
Tusruktu Jehu el tia akos ma sap lun LEUM GOD lun Israel ke insial nufon, a el fahsrna tukun srikasrak koluk lal Jeroboam, su kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk.
32 In those days the LORD began to cut away parts of Israel; and Hazael struck them in all the borders of Israel
In pacl sac LEUM GOD El mutawauk in aksrikyela lupan acn lun Israel. Tokosra Hazael lun Syria el sruokya acn nukewa lun Israel
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, even Gilead and Bashan.
ma oan kutulap in Infacl Jordan, fahla nu layen eir nwe ke siti srisrik Aroer ke Infacl Arnon — acn inge weang pac acn lun Gilead ac Bashan, yen ma sruf lal Gad, Reuben, ac Manasseh Kutulap muta we.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ma nukewa saya ma Jehu el orala, weang pac orekma pulaik lal, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel.]
35 Jehu slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria. Jehoahaz his son reigned in his place.
El misa ac pukpuki in Samaria, ac Jehoahaz wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.
36 The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
Jehu el tokosra lun Israel, ac leum in Samaria ke yac longoul oalkosr.
