< 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.
Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets and said to him, “Dress for travel, then take this little bottle of oil in your hand 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 son of Nimshi, and go in and make him arise up from among his companions, and conduct him to an inner chamber.
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 bottle of oil and pour it on his head and say, 'Yahweh says this: “I have anointed you king over Israel.”' Then open the door, and run off; do not delay.”
4 A hele aku la ke kanaka ui i Ramota-Gileada, he kaula hoi ua kanaka ui la.
So the young man, 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.
When he arrived, behold, the captains of the army were sitting. So the young prophet said, “I have come on an errand to you, captain.” Jehu replied, “To which of us?” The young prophet answered, “To you, captain.”
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 arose and went into the house, and the prophet poured the oil on his head and said to Jehu, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says this: 'I have anointed you king over the people of Yahweh, over 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.
You must kill the family of Ahab your master, so that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Yahweh, who were murdered 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.
For the whole family of Ahab will perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male child, whether he is a slave or a free person.
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 house of Jeroboam son of Nebat and like the house of 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.
The dogs will eat Jezebel in Jezreel, and there will be no one to bury her.'” Then the prophet opened the door and ran off.
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.
Then Jehu came out to the servants of his master, and one said to him, “Is everything alright? Why did this mad fellow come to you?” Jehu answered them, “You know the man and the kinds of things he says.”
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.
They said, “That is a lie. Tell us.” Jehu answered, “He said this and that to me, and he also said, 'This is what Yahweh says: I have anointed you as 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.
Then each of them quickly took off his outer garment and put it under Jehu at the top of the steps. They blew the trumpet and said, “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.
In this way Jehu son of Jehoshaphat son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. Now Joram had been defending Ramoth Gilead, he and all Israel, because of 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 gone back to Jezreel to be healed of the wounds that the Arameans had given him, when he had fought against Hazael king of Aram. Jehu said to the servants of Joram, “If this is your opinion, then let no one escape and go out of the city, in order to go tell this news 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.
So Jehu rode in a chariot to Jezreel; for Joram was resting there. Now Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
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?
The watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he saw the company of Jehu as he came at a distance; he said, “I see a group of men coming.” Joram said, “Take a horseman, and send him out to meet them; tell him to say, 'Are you coming 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 man was sent on horseback to meet him; he said, “The king says this: 'Are coming in peace?'” So Jehu said, “What have you to do with peace? Turn and ride behind me.” Then the watchman told the king, “The messenger has met 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.
Then he sent out a second man on horseback, who came to them and said, “The king says this: 'Are you coming in peace?'” Jehu answered, “What have you to do with peace? Turn and ride 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 has met them, but he is not coming back. For the way that the chariot is being driven is the way that Jehu son of Nimshi drives; he is driving wildly.”
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.
So Joram said, “Get my chariot ready.” They prepared his chariot, and Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah rode out, each in his chariot, to meet Jehu. They found him at 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 said, “Are you coming in peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace is there, when the idolatrous acts of prostitution and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel are so many?”
23 A huli ae la o Iorama, a holo aku la, a i aku la ia Ahazia, He kipi, e Ahazia.
So Joram turned his chariot and fled and said to Ahaziah, “There is 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 with his full strength and shot Joram between his shoulders; the arrow went through his heart, and he sank 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.
Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up and throw him in the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. Think about how when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, Yahweh placed this prophecy 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.
'Yesterday I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons—declares Yahweh—and I will surely make you pay for it on this field—declares Yahweh. Now then, pick him up and throw him on this field, according to the word of Yahweh.”
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 Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled up the road to Beth Haggan. But Jehu followed him, and said, “Kill him also in the chariot,” and they shot him at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. Ahaziah 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.
His servants carried his body in a chariot to Jerusalem and buried him in his tomb with his fathers 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.
Now it was in the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab that Ahaziah had begun to reign 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.
When Jehu came to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it, and she painted her eyes, arranged her hair, and looked out the 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?
As Jehu was entering the gate, she said to him, “Are you coming in peace, you Zimri, your master's murderer?”
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.
Jehu looked up at the window and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Then two or three eunuchs looked out.
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.
So Jehu said, “Throw her down.” So they threw Jezebel down, and some of her blood spattered on the wall and the horses, and Jehu 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.
When Jehu entered the palace, he ate and drank. Then he said, “See now to this cursed woman and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.”
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.
They went to bury her, but they found no more of her than the skull, the 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 came back and told Jehu. He said, “This is the word of Yahweh which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, 'In the land at Jezreel the dogs will eat 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 the body of Jezebel will be like dung on the surface of the fields in the land at Jezreel, so that no one will be able to say, “This is Jezebel.”'”
