2 Raja-raja 9
1 Pada waktu itu Nabi Elisa memanggil salah seorang dari antara para nabi yang dididiknya dan berkata, "Bersiap-siaplah untuk pergi ke Ramot di Gilead, dan bawalah botol yang berisi minyak zaitun ini.
And Elisaie the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up your loins, and take this cruse of oil in your hand, and go to Remmoth Galaad.
2 Sesampainya engkau di sana carilah Yehu anak Yosafat dan cucu Nimsi. Ajaklah dia sendirian ke sebuah kamar,
And you shall enter there, and shall see there Ju the son of Josaphat son of Namessi, and shall go in and make him rise up from among his brethren, and shall bring him into a secret chamber.
3 dan tuanglah minyak ini ke atas kepalanya, lalu katakan, 'TUHAN berkata bahwa Ia mengangkat engkau menjadi raja Israel.' Setelah melakukan hal itu, tinggalkanlah tempat itu secepat mungkin."
And you shall take the cruse of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and say you, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you king over Israel: and you shall open the door, and flee, and not wait.
4 Nabi yang muda itu berangkat ke Ramot,
And the young man the prophet went to Remmoth Galaad.
5 lalu mendapati Yehu dan para panglima lainnya sedang bermusyawarah di sana. Nabi itu berkata, "Tuan, saya membawa berita untuk Tuan." Yehu menjawab, "Untuk siapa?" "Untuk Tuan sendiri," balas nabi itu.
And he went in, and, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have a message to you, O captain. And Ju said, To which of all us? And he said, To you, O captain.
6 Kemudian mereka berdua masuk ke dalam rumah, dan nabi muda itu menuang minyak zaitun itu ke atas kepala Yehu lalu berkata, "TUHAN Allah Israel berkata, 'Aku melantik engkau menjadi raja atas umat-Ku Israel.
And he arose, and went into the house: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed you to be king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.
7 Engkau akan membinasakan keluarga tuanmu Ahab. Dengan demikian Aku menghukum Izebel yang telah membunuh nabi-nabi-Ku dan hamba-hamba-Ku yang lain.
And you shall utterly destroy the house of Achaab your master from before me, and shall avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezabel,
8 Seluruh keluarga dan anak cucu Ahab harus mati. Setiap orang laki-laki baik tua maupun muda akan Kubinasakan.
and at the hand of the whole house of Achaab: and you shall utterly cut off from the house of Achaab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.
9 Keluarganya akan Kuperlakukan seperti Kuperlakukan keluarga Yerobeam dan keluarga Baesa, raja-raja Israel.
And I will make the house of Achaab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa the son of Achia.
10 Izebel tidak akan dikuburkan. Mayatnya akan dimakan anjing di daerah Yizreel.'" Setelah mengucapkan semuanya itu, nabi muda itu keluar lalu lari.
And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
11 Yehu kembali kepada teman-temannya, lalu mereka bertanya, "Ada kabar apa? Orang gila itu mau apa dengan engkau?" "Ah, kalian sudah tahu," jawab Yehu.
And Ju went forth to the servants of his lord, and they said to him, [Is] all well? Why came this mad fellow in to you? And he said to them, You know the man, and his communication.
12 "Tidak, kami tidak tahu!" jawab mereka. "Ayolah beritahukan!" Jawab Yehu, "Ia menyampaikan pesan TUHAN bahwa aku diangkat TUHAN menjadi raja Israel."
And they said, [It is] wrong: tell us now. And Ju said to them, Thus and thus spoke he to me, saying, —and he said, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you to be king over Israel.
13 Segera teman-teman Yehu membuka jubah mereka dan membentangkannya di tangga di depan Yehu. Lalu mereka meniup trompet dan berteriak, "Yehu raja!"
And when they heard it, they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with the trumpet, and said, Ju is king.
14 Demikianlah Yehu bersekongkol melawan Raja Yoram yang pada waktu itu berada di Yizreel. Yoram ke sana untuk mendapat perawatan atas luka-lukanya yang diperolehnya di dalam pertempuran di Ramot melawan Hazael raja Siria. Yehu berkata kepada rekan-rekannya para panglima, "Jika kalian setuju saya menjadi raja, jagalah supaya jangan ada seorang pun yang keluar dari Ramot untuk memberitahukan kepada orang-orang di Yizreel."
So Ju the son of Josaphat the son of Namessi conspired against Joram, and Joram was defending Remmoth Galaad, he and all Israel, because of Azael king of Syria.
And king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezrael of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, in his war with Azael king of Syria. And Ju said, If your heart is with me, let there not go forth out of the city one fugitive to go and report to Jezrael.
16 Setelah itu ia menaiki kereta perangnya lalu berangkat ke Yizreel. Pada waktu itu Yoram belum sembuh, dan Ahazia raja Yehuda ada di sana mengunjungi dia.
And Ju rode and advanced, and came down to Jezrael; for Joram king of Israel was getting healed in Jezrael of the arrow-wounds wherewith the Syrians [had] wounded him in Rammath in the war with Azael king of Syria; for he [was] strong and a mighty man: and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to see Joram.
17 Ketika pengawal menara kota Yizreel melihat Yehu dan orang-orangnya datang, ia berseru, "Ada serombongan orang menuju ke sini!" Yoram menjawab, "Suruh seorang prajurit berkuda pergi menyelidiki apakah mereka itu kawan atau lawan."
And there went up a watchman upon the tower of Jezrael, and saw the dust [made by] Ju as he approached; and he said, I see dust. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Peace.
18 Dengan menunggang kuda, pergilah prajurit itu mendapatkan Yehu dan berkata, "Raja ingin tahu apakah Tuan datang sebagai kawan." "Itu bukan urusanmu!" jawab Yehu, "Ayo bergabunglah dengan aku." Pengawal menara itu melihat prajurit itu tiba pada rombongan itu, tetapi tidak kembali. Maka ia melaporkan hal itu,
And there went a horseman to meet them, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me. And the watchman reported, saying, The messenger came up to them, and has not returned.
19 lalu dikirim seorang prajurit yang lain. Prajurit ini pun bertanya begitu juga kepada Yehu, dan sekali lagi Yehu menjawab, "Itu bukan urusanmu! Ayo bergabunglah dengan aku!"
And he sent another horseman, and he came to him, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me.
20 Pengawal menara melaporkan lagi bahwa utusan itu telah sampai pada rombongan itu tetapi tidak kembali. Lalu ia menambahkan, "Mungkin pemimpin rombongan itu Yehu, sebab ia mengendarai kereta perangnya seperti orang gila."
And the watchman reported, saying, He came up to them, and has not returned: and the driver drives Ju the son of Namessi, for it is with furious [haste].
21 "Siapkan keretaku," perintah Raja Yoram. Kereta disiapkan, lalu Yoram dan Raja Ahazia berangkat menemui Yehu, masing-masing dalam keretanya sendiri. Mereka bertemu dengan Yehu di ladang bekas milik Nabot.
And Joram said, Make ready. And one made ready the chariot: and Joram the king of Israel went forth, and Ochozias king of Juda, each in his chariot, and they went to meet Ju, and found him in the portion of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
22 "Apakah kau datang sebagai kawan?" tanya Yoram kepada Yehu. Yehu menjawab, "Mana mungkin sebagai kawan, kalau di sini masih banyak dukun, dan masih ada penyembahan berhala yang dimulai oleh Izebel ibumu itu?"
And it came to pass when Joram saw Ju, that he said, [Is it] peace, Ju? And Ju said, How [can it be] peace? as yet [there are] the whoredoms of your mother Jezabel, and her abundant witchcrafts.
23 "Ini pengkhianatan, Ahazia!" teriak Yoram sambil membelokkan keretanya lalu melarikan diri.
And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ochozias, Treachery, Ochozias.
24 Yehu menarik busurnya dengan sekuat tenaga dan memanah Yoram pada punggungnya menembus ke jantung. Yoram rebah, dan tewas di dalam keretanya.
And Ju bent his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms, and his arrow went out at his heart, and he bowed upon his knees.
25 Lalu kata Yehu kepada Bidkar ajudannya, "Apakah kau masih ingat, ketika kita mengendarai kuda mengikuti Ahab, ayah Yoram? Pada waktu itu TUHAN berkata kepada Ahab, 'Aku tahu siapa yang membunuh Nabot dan anak-anaknya kemarin, dan aku berjanji akan menghukum engkau di kebun ini juga.'" "Sebab itu," kata Yehu selanjutnya kepada ajudannya itu, "lemparkan mayat Yoram itu ke kebun Nabot, supaya terlaksana hukuman Allah atas dia."
And [Ju] said to Badecar his chief officer, Cast him into the portion of ground of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, for I and you remember, riding [as we were] on chariots after Achaab his father, that the Lord took up this burden against him, [saying],
Surely, I have seen yesterday the blood of Nabuthai, and the blood of his sons, says the Lord; and I will recompense him in this portion, says the Lord. Now then, I pray you, take him up and cast him into the portion, according to the word of the Lord.
27 Ahazia melihat apa yang telah terjadi, maka ia melarikan keretanya menuju ke kota Bet-Hagan. Yehu mengejar dia dan berteriak kepada anak buahnya, "Bunuh dia juga!" Mereka memanah dia dan melukainya di jalan yang menuju ke Gur, dekat kota Yibleam. Tetapi ia berhasil melarikan diri sampai ke Megido, dan di situ ia mati.
And Ochozias king of Juda saw [it], and fled by the way of Baethgan. And Ju pursued after him, and said, [Slay] him also. And one struck him in the chariot at the going up of Gai, which is Jeblaam: and he fled to Mageddo, and died there.
28 Pegawai-pegawainya mengambil jenazahnya dan membawanya dengan kereta kembali ke Yerusalem, lalu menguburkannya dalam pekuburan raja-raja di Kota Daud.
And his servants put him on a chariot, and brought him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his sepulchre in the city of David.
29 Ahazia menjadi raja Yehuda ketika Raja Yoram anak Ahab telah memerintah Israel sebelas tahun.
And in the eleventh year of Joram king of Israel, Ochozias began to reign over Juda.
30 Tibalah Yehu di Yizreel. Setelah Izebel mendengar tentang apa yang terjadi, ia menata rambutnya dan memakai celak, lalu menengok ke bawah dari jendela istana.
And Ju came to Jezrael; and Jezabel heard [of it], and coloured her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked through the window.
31 Ketika Yehu masuk melalui pintu gerbang, Izebel berseru, "Hai Zimri, pembunuh! Mau apa kau ke sini?"
And Ju entered into the city; and she said, Had Zambri, the murderer of his master, peace?
32 Yehu menengadah ke arah jendela, dan berkata, "Siapa memihak pada saya?" Mendengar itu, dua tiga orang pegawai istana menengok ke bawah.
And he lifted up his face toward the window, and saw her, and said, Who are you? Come down with me. And two eunuchs looked down towards him.
33 Yehu berkata kepada mereka, "Lemparkan dia ke bawah!" Maka mereka lemparkan Izebel ke bawah lalu ia digilas kereta sehingga darahnya mencurat ke tembok dan ke kuda-kuda kereta itu.
And he said, Throw her [down]. And they threw her [down]; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and they trampled on her.
34 Lalu Yehu masuk ke dalam istana dan makan. Kemudian ia berkata, "Perempuan itu terkutuk. Meskipun demikian, kuburkanlah juga mayatnya sebab ia putri raja."
And [Ju] went in and ate and drank, and said, Look now, after this cursed woman, and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.
35 Tetapi ketika orang-orang pergi mengambil mayatnya untuk menguburkannya, mereka hanya menemukan tengkoraknya, dan tulang-tulang lengan serta kakinya.
And they went to bury her; but they found nothing of her but the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.
36 Setelah hal itu dilaporkan kepada Yehu, berkatalah ia, "Ini telah diramalkan oleh TUHAN, ketika Ia berkata begini melalui Elia hamba-Nya: 'Mayat Izebel akan dimakan anjing di daerah Yizreel,
And they returned and told him. And he said, [It is] the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Eliu the Thesbite, saying, In the portion of Jezrael shall the dogs eat the flesh of Jezabel.
37 dan sisa-sisa mayatnya itu akan berserakan seperti kotoran binatang sehingga tak seorang pun dapat mengenali mayat siapa itu.'"
And the carcass of Jezabel shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezrael, so that they shall not say, [This is] Jezabel.
