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 hath seventy sons in Samaria, and Jehu writeth letters, and sendeth to Samaria, unto the heads of Jezreel, the elders, and unto the supporters of 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 unto you, and with you [are] sons of your lord, and with you [are] the chariots and the horses, and a fenced city, and the armour,

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.”

and ye have seen the best and the uprightest of the sons of your lord, and have set [him] on the throne of his father, and fight ye 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, 'Lo, 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 elders, and the supporters, send unto Jehu, saying, 'Thy servants we [are], and all that thou sayest unto us we do; we do not make any one king — that which [is] good in thine eyes do.'

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 writeth unto them a letter a second time, saying, 'If ye [are] for me, and to my voice are hearkening, take the heads of the men — the sons of your lord, and come unto me about this time to-morrow, 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 cometh to pass, at the coming in of the letter unto them, that they take the sons of the king, and slaughter seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and send unto him to 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 cometh in, and declareth to him, saying, 'They have brought in the heads of the sons of the king,' and he saith, 'Make them two heaps at the opening of the gate till 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 cometh to pass in the morning, that he goeth out, and standeth, and saith unto all the people, 'Righteous are ye; lo, I have conspired against my lord, and slay him — and who smote 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.”

Know ye now, that nothing doth fall of the word of Jehovah to the earth that Jehovah spake against the house of Ahab, and Jehovah hath done that which He spake 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 smiteth all those left to the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances, and his priests, till he hath not left to him a remnant.

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

And he riseth, and cometh in and goeth 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 hath found the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and saith, 'Who [are] ye?' and they say, 'Brethren of Ahaziah we [are], and we go down to salute 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 saith, 'Catch them alive;' and they catch them alive, and slaughter them at the pit of the shearing-house, forty and two men, and he hath not left a 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 goeth thence, and findeth Jehonadab son of Rechab — to meet him, and blesseth him, and saith unto him, 'Is thy heart right, as my heart [is] with thy heart?' and Jehonadab saith, 'It is;' — 'Then it is; give thy hand;' and he giveth his hand, and he causeth him to come up into him into the chariot,

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 saith, 'Come with me, and look on my zeal for Jehovah;' 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 cometh in to Samaria, and smiteth all those left to Ahab in Samaria, till his destroying him, according to the word of Jehovah that He spake unto 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 gathereth the whole of the people, and saith unto them, 'Ahab served Baal a little — Jehu doth serve 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 Baal, all his servants, and all his priests, call ye unto me; let not a man be lacking, for a great sacrifice I have for Baal; every one who is lacking — he doth not live;' and Jehu hath done [it] in subtilty, in order to destroy the servants of Baal.

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

And Jehu saith, 'Sanctify a restraint for Baal;' 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 sendeth into all Israel, and all the servants of Baal come in, and there hath not been left a man who hath not come in; and they come in to the house of Baal, and the house of Baal 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 saith to him who [is] over the wardrobe, 'Bring out clothing to all servants of Baal;' and he bringeth out to them the clothing.

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 goeth in, and Jehonadab son of Rechab, to the house of Baal, and saith to the servants of Baal, 'Search and see, lest there be here with you of the servants of Jehovah — but, the servants of Baal 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 hath set for himself in an out-place eighty men, and saith, 'The man who letteth escape [any] of the men whom I am bringing in unto your hand — 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 cometh to pass at his finishing to make the burnt-offering, that Jehu saith to the runners, and to the captains, 'Go in, smite them, let none come out;' and they smite them by the mouth of the sword, and the runners and the captains cast [them] out; and they go unto the city, to the house of Baal,

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

and bring out the standing-pillars of the house of Baal, 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 Baal, and break down the house of Baal, and appoint it for a draught-house unto this day.

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

And Jehu destroyeth Baal 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 — the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he caused Israel to sin, Jehu hath 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 Jehovah saith unto Jehu, 'Because that thou hast done well, to do that which [is] right in Mine eyes — according to all that [is] in My heart thou hast done to the house of Ahab — the sons of the fourth [generation] do sit for thee on the throne of Israel.'

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 hath not taken heed to walk in the law of Jehovah, God of Israel, with all his heart, he hath 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 hath Jehovah begun to cut off [some] in Israel, and Hazael smiteth 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 Manassahite (from Aroer, that [is] by the brook 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 book 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 lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in Samaria, and reign doth Jehoahaz his son in his stead.

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

And the days that Jehu hath reigned over Israel [are] twenty and eight years, in Samaria.
