2 Ndị Eze 10

1 Ugbu a, e nwere ụmụ Ehab ndị ikom ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri asaa ndị nọ na Sameria, Jehu dere akwụkwọ ozi ziga Sameria, zigara ndịisi obodo Jezril, zigakwara ndị okenye na ndị na-elekọta ụmụ Ehab ndị ahụ. Ọ sịrị,

Ahab had nowe seuentie sonnes in Samaria. And Iehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria vnto the rulers of Izreel, and to the Elders, and to the bringers vp of Ahabs children, to this effect,

2 “Ugbu a, mgbe akwụkwọ a rutere unu aka, ebe unu na ụmụ ndị ikom nna unu ukwu nọ, ebe unu nwekwara ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya, na obodo e wusiri ike na ngwa agha,

Nowe when this letter commeth to you, (for ye haue with you your masters sonnes, yee haue with you both charets and horses, and a defenced citie, and armour)

3 họpụtanụ onye kachasị inwe ugwu ma kwesikwa nʼime ụmụ ndị ikom nna unu ukwu, mee ka ọ nọkwasị nʼocheeze nna ya. Mgbe ahụ, buo agha chebe ụlọ nna unu ukwu.”

Consider therefore which of your masters sonnes is best and most meete, and set him on his fathers throne, and fight for your masters house.

4 Ma ha tụrụ egwu nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu, sị, “Lee, eze abụọ enweghị ike iguzogide ya, anyị onwe anyị ga-esi aṅaa guzogide ya?”

But they were exceedingly afraid, and saide, Behold two Kings coulde not stande before him, how shall we then stand?

5 Ya mere, onye ọ dị nʼaka ilekọta ezinaụlọ eze, onyeisi obodo, ndị okenye na ndị niile na-elekọta ụmụ Ehab, dere akwụkwọ a zigara Jehu, sị ya, “Jehu, anyị niile bụ ndị ohu gị. Anyị jikeere ime ihe niile i gwara anyị. Anyị agaghị ahọpụta onye ọbụla dịka eze; gị onwe gị mee ihe ọbụla ị chere na ọ bụ ya kachasị mma.”

And he that was gouernour of Ahabs house, and he that ruled the citie, and the Elders, and the bringers vp of the children sent to Iehu, saying, We are thy seruants, and will doe all that thou shalt bid vs: we will make no King: do what seemeth good to thee.

6 Mgbe ahụ, Jehu degaara ha akwụkwọ nke ugboro abụọ sị ha, “Ọ bụrụ na unu dịnyeere m, ọ bụrụkwa na unu ga-erube isi nye m, chịrịnụ isi ụmụ ndị ikom nna unu ukwu, bịakwute m nʼotu oge a echi na Jezril.” Nʼoge ahụ, ụmụ eze iri ndị ikom asaa nọ nʼaka ndịisi obodo ahụ, ndị na-azụlite ha.

Then he wrote another letter to them, saying, If ye be mine, and wil obey my voyce, take the heads of ye men that are your masters sonnes, and come to me to Izreel by to morowe this time. (Nowe the Kings sonnes, euen seuentie persons were with the great men of the citie, which brought them vp)

7 Mgbe akwụkwọ ozi ahụ rutere ha, ndị ikom ahụ kpọrọ ụmụ ndị ikom eze dị iri asaa nʼọnụọgụgụ gbuo ha niile, chịrị isi ha tinye na nkata zigara ya Jehu na Jezril.

And when the letter came to them, they tooke the Kings sonnes, and slewe the seuentie persons, and layde their heads in baskets, and sent them vnto him to Izreel.

8 Mgbe onyeozi bịarutere, ọ gwara Jehu sị, “Ha ebutala isi ụmụ ndị ikom eze.” Mgbe ahụ, Jehu nyere iwu sị, “Tụkọbanụ ha ọnụ nʼoke abụọ, nʼọnụ ụzọ e si abata obodo, tutu ruo ụtụtụ.”

Then there came a messenger and tolde him, saying, They haue brought the heads of the Kings sonnes. And he sayd, Let them lay them on two heapes at the entring in of the gate vntil the morning.

9 Nʼụtụtụ ya, Jehu pụrụ, guzoro nʼihu ndị niile gbakọrọ nʼebe ahụ gwa ha okwu sị, “Ndị Izrel, unu bụ ndị ezi omume. Ọ bụ mụ onwe m gbara izu ọjọọ megide nna m ukwu, gbuo ya, ma onye gburu ndị a niile?

And when it was day, he went out, and stood and sayd to all the people, Ye be righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?

10 Matanụ nke ọma na o nweghị okwu ọbụla Onyenwe anyị kwuru megide ezinaụlọ Ehab nke na-agaghị emezu. Onyenwe anyị emeela ihe o kwere nkwa na ọ ga-eme site nʼọnụ ohu ya Ịlaịja.”

Knowe nowe that there shall fall vnto the earth nothing of the word of the Lord, which the Lord spake concerning the house of Ahab: for the Lord hath brought to passe the things that hee spake by his seruant Eliiah.

11 Emesịa, Jehu gburu ndị ikwu Ehab fọdụrụ nʼobodo Jezril, ha na ndịisi niile, na ndị enyi ya niile, na ndị nchụaja ya niile. Ọ dịkwaghị otu onye ikwu Ehab ọ hapụrụ ndụ.

So Iehu slew al that remained of the house of Ahab in Izreel, and all that were great with him, and his familiars and his priestes, so that he let none of his remaine.

12 Emesịakwa, Jehu hapụrụ Jezril gaa Sameria. Mgbe ọ na-aga nʼụzọ, ọ bịaruru ebe a na-akpọ Ebe Izuike Ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ.

And he arose, and departed and came to Samaria. And as Iehu was in the way by an house where the shepheards did shere,

13 Nʼebe ahụ, o zutere ndị ụmụnna Ahazaya, eze Juda, jụọ sị, “Olee ndị ka unu bụ?” Ha zara, “Anyị bụ ndị ikwu Ahazaya, eze Juda, anyị bịara ka anyị jụọ maka ọdịmma ndị ezinaụlọ eze na nne eze.”

He met with the brethre of Ahaziah king of Iudah, and sayd, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah, and goe downe to salute the children of the King and the children of the Queene.

14 O nyere iwu sị, “Jidenụ ha na ndụ.” Ha jidere ha na ndụ, gbukwaa ha niile nʼakụkụ olulu miri nke Bet-Eked. Ọnụọgụgụ ha dị iri anọ na abụọ. O nweghị onye ọbụla ọ hapụrụ ndụ.

And he sayde, Take them aliue. And they tooke them aliue, and slew them at the well beside the house where the sheepe are shorne, euen two and fourtie men, and he left not one of them.

15 Mgbe o si nʼebe ahụ pụọ, o zutere Jehonadab nwa Rekab, ka ọ na-abịa izute ya. Jehu kelere ya, sị, “Obi gị, o ziri ezi nwee nkwekọrịta, dịka obi m dị nʼebe ị nọ?” Jehonadab zara sị ya, “E.” Jehu sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na o si otu a dịrị, kwe m nʼaka.” Jehonadab kwere ya nʼaka. Jehu nʼonwe ya nyeere ya aka ka ọ rigota nʼụgbọ agha ya.

And when he was departed thence, hee met with Iehonadab the sonne of Rechab comming to meete him, and he blessed him, and sayde to him, Is thine heart vpright, as mine heart is towarde thine? And Iehonadab answered, Yea, doubtlesse. Then giue me thine hande. And when he had giuen him his hande, he tooke him vp to him into the charet.

16 Mgbe ahụ, Jehu sịrị ya, “Ugbu a, soro m bịa lee ụdị ịnụ ọkụ nʼobi m nwere maka ọrụ Onyenwe anyị.” Ha abụọ sooro nʼụgbọ agha Jehu.

And he sayde, Come with me, and see the zeale that I haue for the Lord: so they made him ride in his charet.

17 Mgbe ha bịaruru Sameria, Jehu gburu ndị enyi na ndị ikwu Ehab niile, ndị fọdụrụ site nʼikwu Ehab, o bibiri ha dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị kwuru site nʼọnụ onye amụma Ịlaịja.

And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained vnto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the worde of the Lord, which he spake to Eliiah.

18 Emesịa, Jehu kpọkọtara ndị obodo ahụ niile sị ha, “Ehab fere Baal ofufe nke nta, Jehu ga-efe ya ebe ọ dị ukwuu.

Then Iehu assembled all the people, and sayd vnto them, Ahab serued Baal a litle, but Iehu shall serue him much more.

19 Ugbu a, kpọkọtaanụ ndị amụma Baal niile, ndị niile na-efe ya, na ndị nchụaja ya niile. Hụnụ na onye ọbụla nʼime ha bịara, nʼihi na a ga-eme oke mmemme ịchụ aja nye Baal. Onye ọbụla e lere anya ya nʼebe ahụ, ma a hụghị ya, agaghị adị ndụ.” Ma Jehu ji aghụghọ nʼihi ka ọ laa ndị a na-efe Baal nʼiyi.

Now therefore call vnto me all ye prophets of Baal, all his seruants, and all his priests, and let not a man be lacking: for I haue a great sacrifice for Baal: whosoeuer is lacking, he shall not liue. But Iehu did it by a subtiltie to destroy ye seruats of Baal.

20 Jehu sịrị, “Kpọsaanụ na a ga-enwe oke mkpọkọta dị nsọ nye Baal.” Ya mere, ha kwusara ya.

And Iehu sayd, Proclaime a solemne assemblie for Baal. And they proclaimed it.

21 O zipụrụ ozi nye ndị bi nʼakụkụ Izrel niile. Ndị niile na-efe Baal bịazuru. Ọ dịghị onye fọdụrụ nke na-abịaghị. Ha jupụtara nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Baal site nʼotu isi ya ruo nʼisi nke ọzọ.

So Iehu sent vnto all Israel, and all the seruants of Baal came, and there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was full from ende to ende.

22 Jehu sịrị onye na-elekọta ụlọ ebe a na-edebe uwe ndị na-efe ofufe na-eyi, “Chịpụta uwe nye ndị niile na-efe Baal.” Ya mere, ọ chịpụtaara ha uwe.

Then he said vnto him that had the charge of the vestrie, Bring forth vestments for al the seruants of Baal. And he brought the out vestments.

23 Mgbe ahụ, Jehu na Jehonadab nwa Rekab, banyere nʼebe nzukọ Baal. Jehu sịrị ndị nʼefe Baal, “Chọzienụ nke ọma ka unu hụ na o nweghị onye ọbụla na-efe Onyenwe anyị nọ nʼebe a, karịakwa naanị ndị na-efe Baal.”

And when Iehu went, and Iehonadab the sonne of Rechab into the house of Baal, he sayde vnto the seruants of Baal, Searche diligently, and looke, lest there be here with you any of the seruants of the Lord, but the seruants of Baal only.

24 Mgbe ha malitere ịchụ aja na isure ihe nsure ọkụ, Jehu emeelarị ka iri ndị agha asatọ gbaa ụlọ ahụ niile gburugburu. O nyelarị iwu sị, “Ọ bụrụ na unu ekwere ka otu onye si nʼime ụlọ a gbapụ, unu ga-eji ndụ unu kwụghachi ụgwọ onye dị otu ahụ.”

And when they went in to make sacrifice and burnt offering, Iehu appoynted foure score men without, and sayd, If any of the men whome I haue brought into your hands, escape, his soule shalbe for his soule.

25 Ngwangwa Jehu chụchasịrị aja nsure ọkụ, ọ pụrụ gwa ndị agha ya, na ndịisi ha okwu sị, “Baanụ nʼime ụlọ gbuo ndị niile nọ nʼebe ahụ. Unu ekwela ka otu onye nʼime ha gbapụ.” Ha jiri mma agha gbuo ndị ahụ nọ nʼime ụlọ Baal, tụpụta ozu ha nʼezi. Emesịa, ndị agha Jehu banyere nʼime ime ụlọ ebe ịchụ aja Baal,

And when hee had made an ende of the burnt offring, Iehu sayde to the garde, and to the captaines, Goe in, slay them, let not a man come out. And they smote them with the edge of the sworde. And the garde, and the captaines cast them out, and went vnto the citie, where was the temple of Baal.

26 ha bupụtara ogidi nsọ e ji efe Baal, kpọọ ha ọkụ.

And they brought out the images of the temple of Baal, and burnt them.

27 Ha kwaturu ogidi nsọ Baal, kwatukwaa ụlọ ịchụ aja ya. Ya mere e megharịrị ya ka ọ bụrụ ebe ọha mmadụ na-aga ogwe ruo taa.

And they destroyed the image of Baal, and threwe downe the house of Baal, and made a iakes of it vnto this day.

28 Jehu kpochapụrụ ofufe Baal nʼala Izrel niile.

So Iehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.

29 Ma otu ọ dị, o siteghị na mmehie Jeroboam nwa Nebat wezuga onwe ya. Mmehie nke Jeroboam mere ka Izrel mehie, ya bụ, mmehie nke ife arụsị ụmụ ehi e ji ọlaedo kpụọ, dị na Betel na Dan.

But from the sinnes of Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat which made Israel to sinne, Iehu departed not from them, neither from the golden calues that were in Beth-el and that were in Dan.

30 Onyenwe anyị gwara Jehu sị, “Nʼihi na i mere nke ọma mezuo ihe niile ziri ezi nʼanya m, nʼebe ezinaụlọ Ehab nọ, nʼusoro ihe niile dị nʼuche m ime, ụmụ ụmụ gị ga-anọkwasị nʼocheeze Izrel, ruo nʼọgbọ nke anọ ha.”

And the Lord sayde vnto Iehu, Because thou hast diligently executed that which was right in mine eyes, and hast done vnto the house of Ahab according to all things that were in mine heart, therefore shall thy sonnes vnto the fourth generation sit on the throne of Israel.

31 Ma Jehu akpachapụghị anya iji obi ya niile debe iwu Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel. O siteghị na mmehie Jeroboam wezuga onwe ya, bụ mmehie ahụ o mere ka Izrel mee.

But Iehu regarded not to walke in the law of the Lord God of Israel with all his heart: for hee departed not from the sinnes of Ieroboam, which made Israel to sinne.

32 Nʼoge ahụ, Onyenwe anyị malitere ime ka ndị Izrel bido ịdị nta. Hazael eze Aram, buru agha merie ọtụtụ akụkụ Izrel,

In those dayes the Lord began to lothe Israel, and Hazael smote them in all the coastes of Israel,

33 nke dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan, na ala niile nke Gilead (nʼoke ala ndị Gad, na nke ndị Ruben, na Manase), site nʼAroea nke dị nʼakụkụ ndagwurugwu Anọn, ruo Gilead na Bashan.

From Iorden Eastward, euen all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and them that were of Manasseh, from Aroer (which is by the riuer Arnon) and Gilead and Bashan.

34 Akụkọ gbasara ọchịchị eze Jehu, na ihe niile o mere, na ịkpa ike ya niile, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ndị eze Izrel?

Concerning the rest of the actes of Iehu, and all that he did, and all his valiant deedes, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

35 Jehu sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya na Sameria. Nwa ya bụ Jehoahaz nọchiri anya ya dịka eze.

And Iehu slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in Samaria, and Iehoahaz his sonne reigned in his stead.

36 Ma ụbọchị niile Jehu bụ eze Izrel nʼime Sameria dị iri afọ abụọ na asatọ.

And the time that Iehu reigned ouer Israel in Samaria is eight and twentie yeeres.
