II Na Lii 9
1 A KAHEA aku la o Elisai ke kaula i kekahi o na haumana a ka poe kaula, i aku la ia ia, E kaei oe i kou puhaka, a lawe i keia hue aila ma kou lima, a e hele aku i Ramota-Gileada.
Now Elisha the prophet summoned one of the sons of the prophets and said to him, “Tuck your cloak under your belt, take this flask of oil, and go to Ramoth-gilead.
2 A hiki oe ilaila, e imi aku oe ilaila ia Iehu, ko keiki a Iehosapata, ke keiki a Nimesi, a komo aku oe, a hooku ia ia mai waena mai o kona poe hoahanau, a hookomo ia ia i ke keena maloko.
When you arrive, look for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. Go in, get him away from his companions, and take him to an inner room.
3 Alaila e lawe oe i ka hue aila, a e ninini maluna o kona poo, a e i aku, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova peneia, Ua poni aku au ia oe i alii maluna o ka Iseraela. Alaila e wehe ae oe i ka puka, a holo aku, mai kali oe.
Then take the flask of oil, pour it on his head, and declare, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’ Then open the door and run. Do not delay!”
4 A hele aku la ke kanaka ui i Ramota-Gileada, he kaula hoi ua kanaka ui la.
So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead,
5 A hiki aku ia, aia hoi, e noho ana na luna o ke kaua; i aku la ia, Ho wahi olelo ka'u ia oe, e ka luna. I mai la o Iehu, Ia wai o makou a pau? I aku la ia, Ia oe, e ka luna.
and when he arrived, the army commanders were sitting there. “I have a message for you, commander,” he said. “For which of us?” asked Jehu. “For you, commander,” he replied.
6 Ku ae la ia a komo iloko o ka hale; a ninini iho la ia i ka aila maluna o kona poo. a i aku la ia ia, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, Ua poni aku au ia oe i alii maluna o na kanaka o Iehova, maluna o ka Iseraela.
So Jehu got up and went into the house, where the young prophet poured the oil on his head and declared, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anoint you king over the LORD’s people Israel.
7 A e pepehi aku oe i ko ka hale o Ahaba kou haku, i hoopai aku ai au i ko koko o ka'u poe kauwa, o na kaula, a me ke koko o na kauwa a pau a Iehova ma ka lima o Iezebela.
And you are to strike down the house of your master Ahab, so that I may avenge the blood of My servants the prophets and the blood of all the servants of the LORD shed by the hand of Jezebel.
8 A e pau auanei ko ka hale a pau o Ahaba; a oki aku au i na kane a pau no Ahaba, a o ka mea i paa, a me ka mea i paa ole iloko o ka Iseraela.
The whole house of Ahab will perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, both slave and free, in Israel.
9 A e hana like aku au i ko ka hale o Ahaba me ko ka hale o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, a me ko ka hale o Baasa, ke keiki a Ahiia.
I will make the house of Ahab like the houses of Jeroboam son of Nebat and Baasha son of Ahijah.
10 A e ai na ilio ia Iezebela ma ka aina i Iezereela, aohe mea nana ia e kanu. A wehe ae la ia i ka puka, a holo aku la.
And on the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour Jezebel, and there will be no one to bury her.’” Then the young prophet opened the door and ran.
11 Alaila puka iwaho o Iehu i na kauwa a kona haku, a ninau mai kekahi ia ia, He pono anei? No ke aha la i hele mai ai keia hehena i ou la? I aku la ia ia lakou, Ua ike oukou i ke kanaka, a me kana olelo.
When Jehu went out to the servants of his master, they asked, “Is everything all right? Why did this madman come to you?” “You know his kind and their babble,” he replied.
12 I aku la lakou ia ia, He wahahee; e hai mai oe ia makou ano. I mai la ia, Me neia, me neia kana i olelo mai ai ia'u, i mai la, Ke i mai nei o Iehova peneia, Ua poni aku au ia oe i alii maluna o ka Iseraela.
“That is a lie!” they said. “Tell us now!” So Jehu answered, “He talked to me about this and that, and he said, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”
13 Alaila wikiwiki lakou, a lawe ae la kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aahu, a waiho malalo iho ona maluna o ke alapii, a puhi i na pu, i aku la, E alii ana o Iehu.
Quickly, each man took his garment and put it under Jehu on the bare steps. Then they blew the ram’s horn and proclaimed, “Jehu is king!”
14 A kipi iho la o Iehu ke keiki a Iehosapata, ke keiki a Nimesi, ia Iorama. (A o Iorama e kiai ana ia ma Ramota-Gileada, oia, a me ka Iseraela a pau, no Hazaela ke alii o Suria.
Thus Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram and all Israel had been defending Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Aram,
15 A ua hoi aku o Iorama ke alii ma Iezereela e hoolaia i kona eha a ko Suria i hana eha ai ia ia, i kona manawa i kaua aku ai ia Hazaela ke alii o Suria.) A i aku la o Iehu, Ina oukou e manao, mai puka aku e pakele kekahi mai ke kulanakauhale aku e hele ia e hai aku ma Iezereela.
but King Joram had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he had suffered at the hands of the Arameans in the battle against Hazael their king.) So Jehu said, “If you commanders wish to make me king, then do not let anyone escape from the city to go and tell it in Jezreel.”
16 A holo aku la o Iehu ma ka halekaa, a hele aku la i Iezereela; no ka mea, e waiho ana o Iorama malaila. A ua iho mai o Ahazia, ke alii o ka Iuda, e ike ia Iorama.
Then Jehu got into his chariot and went to Jezreel, because Joram was laid up there and Ahaziah king of Judah had gone down to see him.
17 A e ku ana ke kanaka kiai maluna o ka hale kiai ma Iezereela, a ike aku la ia i ka poe nui o Iehu i kona hele ana mai, i aku la ia, Ke ike nei au i ka poe nui. I mai la o Iorama, e lawe oe i ka hooholelio, a e hoouna aku e halawai me lakou, a e ninau aku ia, He aloha anei?
Now the watchman standing on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu’s troops approaching, and he called out, “I see a company of troops!” “Choose a rider,” Joram commanded. “Send him out to meet them and ask, ‘Have you come in peace?’”
18 A holo aku la kekahi maluna o ka lio e halawai me ia, a i aku la, Ke olelo mai nei ke alii peneia, He aloha anei? I aku la o Iehu, Heaha kau i ke aloha? e huli ae oe mahope o'u. A hai aku la ke kanaka kiai, i aku la, Hele aku la ke elele io lakou la, aole i hoi hou mai.
So a horseman rode off to meet Jehu and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.” And the watchman reported, “The messenger reached them, but he is not coming back.”
19 A hoouna hou aku la ia i ka lua maluna o ka lio a hiki aku la ia io lakou la, i aku la, Ke olelo mai nei ke alii peneia, He aloha anei? I aku la o Iehu, Heaha kau i ke aloha? E huli ae oe mahope o'u.
So the king sent out a second horseman, who went to them and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.”
20 A hai aku la ke kiai, i aku la, Ua hele aku ia io lakou la, aole i hoi hou mai; a o ka holo ana, ua like me ka holo ana o Iehu ke keiki a Nimesi, no ka mea, ke holo la ia e like me ka hehena huhu.
Again the watchman reported, “He reached them, but he is not coming back. And the charioteer is driving like Jehu son of Nimshi —he is driving like a madman!”
21 I aku o Iorama, E hoomakaukau; a hoomakaukauia iho la kona halekaa. A hele aku la o Iorama ke alii o ka Iseraela, a o Ahazia ke alii o ka Iuda, o kela keia ma kona halekaa iho, a hele aku e halawai me Iehu, a loaa ia lakou ia ma ka aina o Nabota no Iezereela.
“Harness!” Joram shouted, and they harnessed his chariot. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah set out, each in his own chariot, and met Jehu on the property of Naboth the Jezreelite.
22 A i ka manawa i ike ai o Iorama ia Iehu, i aku la ia, He aloha anei, e Iehu? Ninau mai la ia, Heaha ke aloha i ka manawa i nui loa ai na hoomanakii o Iezebela kou makuwahine, a me ka anaana ana?
When Joram saw Jehu, he asked, “Have you come in peace, Jehu?” “How can there be peace,” he replied, “as long as the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?”
23 A huli ae la o Iorama, a holo aku la, a i aku la ia Ahazia, He kipi, e Ahazia.
Joram turned around and fled, calling out to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
24 A lawe o Iehu i ke kikoo ma kona lima, a pana aku la ia Iorama mawaena o kona mau lima, a puka aku la ka pua ma kona puuwai, a haule iho la ia maloko o kona halekaa.
Then Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow pierced his heart, and he slumped down in his chariot.
25 Alaila i aku la oia ia Bidekara i kona luna, E kaikai, a hoolei aku ia ia iloko o ka aina kihapai o Nabota no Iezereela; no ka mea, e hoomanao oe i ka wa a kaua elua i holo pu ai, mamuli o Ahaba kona makuakane, ua kau mai o Iehova i keia mea kaumaha maluna iho ona.
And Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Pick him up and throw him into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. For remember that when you and I were riding together behind his father Ahab, the LORD lifted up this burden against him:
26 Ua ike io no au inehinei i ke koko o Nabota, a me ke koko o kana mau keiki, wahi a Iehova; a e hoopai aka au ia oe ma keia aina, wahi a Iehova. Ano hoi, e lawe, a e hoolei aku ia ia iloko o ua aina la, e like me ka olelo a Iehova.
‘As surely as I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons yesterday, declares the LORD, so will I repay you on this plot of ground, declares the LORD.’ Now then, according to the word of the LORD, pick him up and throw him on the plot of ground.”
27 A ike aku la o Ahazia ke alii o ka Iuda, alaila holo aku la ia ma ke ala o ka hale ma ke kihapai. A hahai aku la o Iehu mahope ona, a i aku la ia, E pepehi aku ia ia hoi ma ka halekaa i ka pii ana ma Gura, e kokoke ana i Ibeleama. A holo aku la ia i Megido, a make iho la ilaila.
When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled up the road toward Beth-haggan. And Jehu pursued him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam, and he fled to Megiddo and died there.
28 A lawe aku la kana poe kauwa ia ia maloko o ka halekaa i Ierusalema, a kanu iho la ia ia iloko o ka halelua me kona poe kupuna ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida.
Then his servants carried him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his fathers in his tomb in the City of David.
29 I ka umikumamakahi o ka makahiki o Iorama ke keiki a Ahaba, hoomaka iho la o Ahazia e noho alii maluna o ka Iuda.
(In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had become king over Judah.)
30 A hiki aku la o Iehu i Iezereela, lohe ae la o Iezebela; a pena iho la ia i kona maka, a hooponopono i kona poo, a nana mai la ma ka pukamakani.
Now when Jehu arrived in Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it. So she painted her eyes, adorned her head, and looked down from a window.
31 A komo aku la o Iehu ma ka pukapa, ninau mai la keia, I maluhia anei o Zimeri, nana i pepehi kona haku?
And as Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you come in peace, O Zimri, murderer of your master?”
32 A nana aku la ia iluna ma ka pukamakani, i aku la, Owai ka mea ma o'u nei? Owai? A nana mai la ia ia elua a ekolu paha mau luna hale.
He looked up at the window and called out, “Who is on my side? Who?” And two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
33 I aku la ia, E hoolei mai ia ia ilalo. A hoolei iho la lakou ia ia ilalo, a helelei iho kekahi o kona koko ma ka papohaku, a maluna o na lio: a hehiia iho la ia malalo o na wawae.
“Throw her down!” yelled Jehu. So they threw her down, and her blood splattered on the wall and on the horses as they trampled her underfoot.
34 A komo aku la ia maloko, a ai iho la ia, a inu hoi, a i aku la, E hele, e nana aku ano i keia mea i hoinoia, a e kanu aku ia ia, no ka mea, he kaikamahine ia a kekahi alii.
Then Jehu went in and ate and drank. “Take care of this cursed woman,” he said, “and bury her, for she was the daughter of a king.”
35 A hele aku la lakou e kanu ia ia, aole i loaa ia lakou kekahi mea ona, o ka puniu wale no, a me na wawae, a me na poho lima.
But when they went out to bury her, they found nothing but her skull, her feet, and the palms of her hands.
36 No ia mea, hoi mai lakou, hai aku ia ia. I mai la ia, O keia ka olelo a Iehova ana i olelo mai ai, ma kana kauwa, ma Elia no Tiseba, i ka i ana'e, Ma ka aina i Iezereela e ai iho ai na ilio i ka io o Iezebela.
So they went back and told Jehu, who replied, “This is the word of the LORD, which He spoke through His servant Elijah the Tishbite: ‘On the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour the flesh of Jezebel.
37 A e like auanei ke kupapau o Iezebela me ka lepo maluna o ke kula o ka aina i Iezereela; nolaila, aole lakou e olelo ae, O Iezebela keia.
And Jezebel’s body will lie like dung in the field on the plot of ground at Jezreel, so that no one can say: This is Jezebel.’”
