2 Sarakuna 10

1 To, akwai’ya’ya maza saba’in na gidan Ahab a Samariya. Saboda haka Yehu ya rubuta wasiƙu, ya aika su Samariya, zuwa ga shugabannin Yezireyel, da kuma ga masu lura da’ya’yan Ahab. Ya ce,

And Ahab has seventy sons in Samaria, and Jehu writes letters, and sends [them] to Samaria, to the heads of Jezreel, the elderly, and to those supporting Ahab, saying,

2 “Da zarar wasiƙan nan ta sadu da ku, da yake’ya’yan maigidanku suna tare da ku, kuna kuma da kekunan yaƙi da dawakai, da birni mai katanga da makamai,

“And now, at the coming in of this letter to you, and sons of your lord [are] with you, and the chariots and the horses, and a fortified city, and the armor, [are] with you,

3 sai ku zaɓi mafi cancanta a cikin’ya’yan maigidanku ku sa shi a kan kursiyin mahaifinsa. Sa’an nan ku yi yaƙi don gidan maigidanku.”

that you have seen the best and the most upright of the sons of your lord, and have set [him] on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your lord.”

4 Amma suka razana suka ce, “Idan sarakuna biyu ba su iya yin tsayayya da shi ba, wane mu?”

And they fear very greatly, and say, “Behold, the two kings have not stood before him, and how do we stand—we?”

5 Saboda haka sarkin fada, da gwamnan birnin, da dattawa, da kuma masu lura da’ya’yan suka aika da saƙo ga Yehu, cewa, “Mu bayinka ne, za mu kuma yi duk abin da ka ce. Ba za mu naɗa kowa sarki ba; sai ka yi abin da ka ga ya fi kyau.”

And he who [is] over the house, and he who [is] over the city, and the elderly, and those supporting, send to Jehu, saying, “We [are] your servants, and all that you say to us we do; we do not make anyone king—do that which [is] good in your eyes.”

6 Sai Yehu ya sāke rubuta musu wasiƙa ta biyu, ya ce, “In a gefena kuke, to, sai ku yi biyayya da ni, ku fille kawunan’ya’yan maigidanku, ku kawo mini a Yezireyel war haka gobe.” To,’ya’yan sarki, su saba’in, suna tare da manyan birni waɗanda suke lura da su.

And he writes a letter to them a second time, saying, “If you [are] for me, and are listening to my voice, take the heads of the men—the sons of your lord, and come to me about this time tomorrow, to Jezreel”; and the sons of the king [are] seventy men, with the great ones of the city—those bringing them up.

7 Sa’ad da wasiƙar ta iso, sai mutanen nan suka ɗauki dukan’ya’yan sarkin nan saba’in, suka kashe su, suka sa kawunansu cikin kwanduna, suka aika wa Yehu a Yezireyel.

And it comes to pass, at the coming in of the letter to them, that they take the sons of the king, and slaughter seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and send [them] to him at Jezreel,

8 Da ɗan saƙon ya iso, sai aka ce wa Yehu, “Sun kawo kawunan’ya’yan sarki.” Sai Yehu ya ce, “Ku ajiye su kashi biyu a ƙofar gari har safiya.”

and the messenger comes in, and declares [it] to him, saying, “They have brought in the heads of the sons of the king,” and he says, “Make them two heaps at the opening of the gate until the morning.”

9 Da gari ya waye, sai Yehu ya fita ya tsaya a gaban dukan jama’a ya ce, “Ba ku da laifi. Ni ne na ƙulla wa maigidana maƙarƙashiya, na kuma kashe shi, amma wa ya karkashe dukan waɗannan?

And it comes to pass in the morning, that he goes out, and stands, and says to all the people, “You are righteous; behold, I have conspired against my lord, and slay him—and who struck all these?

10 Ku sani fa, ba kalmar da Ubangiji ya faɗa game da gidan Ahab da ba za tă cika ba. Ubangiji ya yi abin da ya alkawarta ta bakin bawansa Iliya.”

Now you know that nothing falls of the word of YHWH to the earth that YHWH spoke against the house of Ahab, and YHWH has done that which He spoke by the hand of His servant Elijah.”

11 Saboda haka Yehu ya kashe duk waɗanda suka rage na iyalin Ahab a Yezireyel, tare da dukan fadawansa da aminansa da firistocinsa, ba a bar masa kowa ba.

And Jehu strikes all those left to the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances, and his priests, until he has not left a remnant to him.

12 Sa’an nan Yehu ya nufi Samariya. Da ya kai Bet-Eked na Makiyaya,

And he rises, and comes in and goes to Samaria; he [is] at the shepherds’ shearing-house in the way,

13 sai ya gamu da waɗansu daga dangin Ahaziya sarkin Yahuda, sai ya tambaye su, ya ce, “Ku, su wane ne?” Suka ce, “Mu dangin Ahaziya ne, mun kuma zo ne mu gai da iyalan sarki da kuma mahaifiyar sarauniya.”

and Jehu has found the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah and says, “Who [are] you?” And they say, “We [are] brothers of Ahaziah, and we go down to greet the sons of the king and the sons of the mistress.”

14 Sai ya umarta ya ce, “A kama su da rai!” Aka kuwa kama su aka yayyanka kusa da rijiyar Bet-Eked, su arba’in da biyu. Ba a bar wani da rai ba.

And he says, “Catch them alive”; and they catch them alive, and slaughter them at the pit of the shearing-house, forty-two men, and he has not left [even one] man of them.

15 Bayan ya bar wurin, sai ya gamu da Yehonadab ɗan Rekab wanda yake kan hanyarsa don yă sadu da shi. Sai Yehu ya gaishe shi, ya ce, “Ka amince da ni yadda na amince da kai?” Yehonadab ya ce, “I.” Yehu ya ce, “To, in haka ne ka ba ni hannunka.” Sai ya miƙa masa, Yehu kuwa ya ja shi cikin keken yaƙin.

And he goes there, and finds Jehonadab son of Rechab to meet him, and blesses him, and says to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart [is] with your heart?” And Jehonadab says, “It is.” “Then it is; give your hand”; and he gives his hand, and he causes him to come up into the chariot to him,

16 Yehu ya ce, “Zo tare da ni ka ga himmata saboda Ubangiji.” Sa’an nan ya sa suka tafi tare cikin keken yaƙinsa.

and says, “Come with me, and look on my zeal for YHWH”; and they cause him to ride in his chariot.

17 Da Yehu ya isa Samariya, sai ya karkashe dukan sauran iyalin Ahab, ya hallaka su, bisa ga maganar da Ubangiji ya faɗa ta bakin Iliya.

And he comes to Samaria, and strikes all those left to Ahab in Samaria, until his destroying him, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke to Elisha.

18 Sa’an nan Yehu ya tattara dukan jama’a ya ce musu, “Ahab ya bauta wa Ba’al kaɗan ne kawai; amma Yehu zai bauta masa sosai.

And Jehu gathers the whole of the people and says to them, “Ahab served Ba‘al a little—Jehu serves him much:

19 Yanzu sai ku kira dukan annabawan Ba’al, dukan masu yin masa hidima da kuma dukan firistocinsa. Ku tabbata ba a manta da wani ba, gama zan yi wa Ba’al babbar hadaya. Duk wanda bai zo ba, a bakin ransa.” Amma Yehu yana wayo ne domin yă hallaka masu yi wa Ba’al sujada.

and now, all the prophets of Ba‘al, all his servants, and all his priests, call to me; do not let a man be lacking, for I have a great sacrifice for Ba‘al; everyone who is lacking—he does not live”; and Jehu has done [it] in subtlety, in order to destroy the servants of Ba‘al.

20 Yehu ya ce, “Ku kira jama’a don a girmama Ba’al.” Saboda haka suka yi shela.

And Jehu says, “Sanctify a restraint for Ba‘al”; and they proclaim [it].

21 Sa’an nan ya aika saƙo ko’ina a Isra’ila, dukan masu yi wa Ba’al hidima kuwa suka tattaru, ba mutumin da bai zo ba. Suka yi cincirindo a haikalin Ba’al har sai da ya cika makil.

And Jehu sends into all Israel, and all the servants of Ba‘al come in, and there has not been left a man who has not come in; and they come into the house of Ba‘al, and the house of Ba‘al is full—mouth to mouth.

22 Sai Yehu ya ce wa mai ajiyar tufafi, “Ka kawo riguna domin dukan masu yi wa Ba’al hidima.” Sai ya fito musu da riguna.

And he says to him who [is] over the wardrobe, “Bring out clothing for all those serving Ba‘al”; and he brings out the clothing to them.

23 Sa’an nan Yehu da Yehonadab ɗan Rekab, suka shiga haikalin Ba’al. Yehu ya ce wa masu yi wa Ba’al sujada, “Ku dudduba ku tabbatar cewa babu wani bawan Ubangiji a nan tare da ku, sai masu hidimar Ba’al kawai.”

And Jehu goes in—and Jehonadab son of Rechab—to the house of Ba‘al, and says to the servants of Ba‘al, “Search and see, lest there be [any] from the servants of YHWH here with you—but [only] the servants of Ba‘al by themselves.”

24 Saboda haka suka shiga don su miƙa hadayu da kuma hadaya ta ƙonawa. To, Yehu ya riga ya ba wa mutane takwas wannan kashedi a waje cewa, “In waninku ya bar ɗaya daga cikin mutanen nan da nake danƙa a hannunku ya tsere, to, a bakin ransa.”

And they come in to make sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and Jehu has set eighty men for himself in an out-place, and says, “The man who lets [any] of the men whom I am bringing into your hand escape—his soul for his soul.”

25 Nan da nan sa’ad da Yehu ya gama yin hadayar, sai ya umarci masu gadin da hafsoshi, “Ku shiga ku karkashe su; kada ku bar wani yă tsere.” Saboda haka suka karkashe su da takobi. Masu gadin da hafsoshin suka wuwwurga gawawwakinsu waje, suka kuma shiga ciki cikin haikalin Ba’al ɗin,

And it comes to pass, at his finishing to make the burnt-offering, that Jehu says to the runners and to the captains, “Go in, strike them, let none come out”; and they strike them by the mouth of the sword, and the runners and the captains cast [them] out; and they go to the city, to the house of Ba‘al,

26 suka fitar da dutsen tsafi daga haikalin Ba’al, suka kuma ƙone shi.

and bring out the standing-pillars of the house of Ba‘al, and burn them,

27 Suka farfasa dutsen tsafin Ba’al, suka kuma rushe haikalin, mutane suka mai da wurin salga har yă zuwa yau.

and break down the standing-pillar of Ba‘al, and break down the house of Ba‘al, and appoint it for a latrine to this day.

28 Ta haka Yehu ya hallaka butar Ba’al a Isra’ila.

And Jehu destroys Ba‘al out of Israel,

29 Duk da haka, bai rabu da zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata ba, wato, yin sujada ga siffofin maruƙa na zinariya a Betel da kuma Dan.

only [not]—the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he caused Israel to sin, Jehu has not turned aside from after them—the calves of gold that [are] at Beth-El and in Dan.

30 Ubangiji ya ce wa Yehu, “Tun da yake ka aikata abin da yake mai kyau a idanuna, ka kuma yi wa gidan Ahab dukan abin da yake a zuciyata, ina yin maka alkawari cewa zuriyarka za su yi mulkin Isra’ila har tsara ta huɗu.”

And YHWH says to Jehu, “Because that you have done well, to do that which [is] right in My eyes—according to all that [is] in My heart you have done to the house of Ahab—the sons of the fourth [generation] sit on the throne of Israel for you.”

31 Duk da haka, Yehu bai mai da hankali ya kiyaye dokokin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila da dukan zuciyarsa ba. Bai rabu da zunubin Yerobowam, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata ba.

And Jehu has not taken heed to walk in the Law of YHWH, God of Israel, with all his heart; he has not turned aside from the sins of Jeroboam that he caused Israel to sin.

32 A kwanakin sai Ubangiji ya fara rage girman Isra’ila, Hazayel ya yi nasara a bisa Isra’ila a ko’ina a yankinsu

In those days YHWH has begun to cut off [some] in Israel, and Hazael strikes them in all the border of Israel,

33 gabas da Urdun, cikin dukan ƙasar Gileyad (yankin Gad, da na Ruben, da na Manasse), daga Arower wajen Kwarin Arnon ya ratsa Gileyad zuwa Bashan.

from the Jordan, at the sun-rising: the whole land of Gilead, of the Gadite, and the Reubenite, and the Manassite (from Aroer, that [is] by the Brook of Arnon), even Gilead and Bashan.

34 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yehu, da dukan abin da ya yi, a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Isra’ila.

And the rest of the matters of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

35 Yehu ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka binne shi a Samariya. Yehoyahaz kuma ya ci sarauta bayansa.

And Jehu lies with his fathers, and they bury him in Samaria, and his son Jehoahaz reigns in his stead.

36 Yehu ya yi sarautar Isra’ila a Samariya shekara ashirin da takwas.

And the days that Jehu has reigned over Israel in Samaria [are] twenty-eight years.
