2 Mpanjaka 9
1 Ary Elisa mpaminany niantso ny anankiray tamin’ ny zanakalahin’ ny mpaminany ka nanao taminy hoe: Misikìna, dia ento eny an-tananao ity tavoara feno diloilo ity, ka mankanesa any Ramota-gileada;
Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, “Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
2 ary rehefa mby any ianao, dia izahao Jeho, zanak’ i Josafata, zanak’ i Nimsy, ary midìra, ka manaingà azy hiala amin’ ny namany, ary ento any amin’ ny efi-trano anatiny izy;
When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in and make him rise up from among his brothers, and take him to an inner room.
3 ary raiso ny tavoara feno diloilo, ka aidino amin’ ny lohany, dia lazao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Efa nanosotra anao ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely Aho. Dia vohay ny varavarana, ka mandosira, fa aza mijanona.
Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, ‘Yahweh says, “I have anointed you king over Israel.”’ Then open the door, flee, and don’t wait.”
4 Ary nandeha ilay zatovo, dia ilay zatovon’ ny mpaminany, nankany Ramota-gileada.
So the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth Gilead.
5 Ary nony mby tany izy, indreo, nipetraka teo ny mpifehy ny miaramila; ary hoy izy: Ry komandy ô, mitondra teny ho aminao aho. Ary hoy Jeho: Amin’ iza aminay ireto moa? Ary hoy izy: Aminao, ry komandy ô.
When he came, behold, the captains of the army were sitting. Then he said, “I have a message for you, captain.” Jehu said, “To which one of us?” He said, “To you, O captain.”
6 Ary nitsangana izy ka niditra tao an-trano, dia naidiny tamin’ ny lohany ny diloilo; ary hoy izy taminy: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Efa nanosotra anao Aho ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely oloko.
He arose, and went into the house. Then he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have anointed you king over the people of Yahweh, even over Israel.
7 Ary hamely ny tamingan’ i Ahaba tomponao ianao, mba hampanodiaviko an’ i Jezebela ny ran’ ny mpaminany mpanompoko sy ny ran’ ny mpanompon’ i Jehovah rehetra.
You must strike your master Ahab’s house, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Yahweh, at the hand of Jezebel.
8 Eny, ho fongotra ny taranak’ i Ahaba rehetra; ary haringako avokoa ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny tamingany, na ny voahazona na ny afaka eo amin’ ny Isiraely;
For the whole house of Ahab will perish. I will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, both him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.
9 Ary ny taranak’ i Ahaba hataoko tahaka ny taranak’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, sy tahaka ny taranak’ i Basa, zanak’ i Ahia;
I will make Ahab’s house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.
10 Ary Jezebela hohanin’ ny alika ao amin’ ny tany Jezirela, ka tsy hisy handevina azy. Dia namoha ny varavarana ilay zatovo ka lasa nandositra.
The dogs will eat Jezebel on the plot of ground of Jezreel, and there shall be no one to bury her.’” Then he opened the door and fled.
11 Ary Jeho nivoaka nankao amin’ ny mpanompon’ ny tompony ary nanontaniany hoe: Raharaha tsara ihany va? Inona no nalehan’ iny ilay adala iny tao aminao? Ary hoy izy taminy: Hianareo mahalala ihany an-dralehilahy sy ny heviny.
When Jehu came out to the servants of his lord and one said to him, “Is all well? Why did this madman come to you?” He said to them, “You know the man and how he talks.”
12 Fa hoy ireo: Lainga foana izany; fa ambarao aminay. Dia hoy izy: Izao ka izao no nolazainy tamiko: Izao ny lazain’ i Jehovah: Efa nanosotra anao ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely Aho.
They said, “That is a lie. Tell us now.” He said, “He said to me, ‘Yahweh says, I have anointed you king over Israel.’”
13 Dia samy nandray faingana ny lambany avy izy ireo ka namelatra azy hitoeran’ i Jeho teo amin’ ny ambaratonga, ary nitsoka ny anjomara izy niantso hoe: Jeho no mpanjaka.
Then they hurried, and each man took his cloak, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, “Jehu is king.”
14 Ary Jeho, zanak’ i Josafata, zanak’ i Nimsy, nikomy tamin’ i Jorama (fa Jorama mbamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra niaro an’ i Ramota-gileada noho ny fananihan’ i Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria, azy;
So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram was defending Ramoth Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;
15 Nefa Jorama mpanjaka efa niverina hotsaboina tao Jezirela amin’ ny feriny tamin’ ny nahavoazan’ ny Syriana azy, fony izy niady tamin’ i Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria), ka dia hoy Jeho; Raha izany ary no sitrakareo, aza avela hisy hiala eto an-tanàna handeha hilaza izany any Jezirela.
but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) Jehu said, “If this is your thinking, then let no one escape and go out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.”
16 Dia niakatra teo amin’ ny kalesy Jeho ka nankany Jezirela, fa tany no nitoeran’ i Jorama. Ary Ahazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, efa nidina hamangy an’ i Jorama.
So Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
17 Ary ny mpitily mitsangana teo an-tampon’ ny tilikambo teo Jezirela ka nahatazana fa indrery olona betsaka tamy niaraka amin’ i Jeho, ary hoy izy: Mahita olona betsaka aho. Ary hoy Jorama: Makà mpitaingin-tsoavaly, ka maniraha hitsena azy, ary asaovy manao hoe: Fihavanana va?
Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, “I see a company.” Joram said, “Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, ‘Is it peace?’”
18 Dia nandeha ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly anankiray hitsena azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no tenin’ ny mpanjaka: Fihavanana va? Ary hoy Jeho: Ahoanao izay fihavanana? fa mankanesa ato aoriako ianao. Ary ny mpitily nilaza hoe: Ny iraka dia tonga teny aminy, nefa tsy niverina.
So one went on horseback to meet him, and said, “the king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu said, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!” The watchman said, “The messenger came to them, but he isn’t coming back.”
19 Dia naniraka mpitaingin-tsoavaly fanindroany Jorama, ary nony tonga teny koa izy, dia nanao hoe: Izao no tenin’ ny mpanjaka: Fihavanana va? Ary Jeho namaly hoe: Ahoanao izay fihavanana? fa mankanesa ato aoriako ianao.
Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them and said, “The king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu answered, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!”
20 Ary ny mpitily nilaza indray hoe: Tonga teny aminy koa iny, fa tsy niverina; ary ny fampiriotrany dia hoatra ny fampiriotran’ i Jeho, zanak’ i Nimsy; fa mampiriotra hoatra ny olona adala izy.
The watchman said, “He came to them, and isn’t coming back. The driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”
21 Ary hoy Jorama: Ampiomany. Dia nampiomaniny ny kalesiny. Dia nivoaka Jorama, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, sy Ahazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, samy nitsangana teo amin’ ny kalesiny avy ka nandeha hitsena an’ i Jeho, ary nifanena taminy teo amin’ ny tanin’ i Nabota Jezirelita izy.
Joram said, “Get ready!” They got his chariot ready. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him on Naboth the Jezreelite’s land.
22 Ary Jorama, nony nahita an’ i Jeho, dia nanao hoe: Fihavanana va, ry Jeho? Fa izy namaly hoe: Aiza no hisy fihavanana, raha mbola ao ihany ny fijangajangan’ i Jezebela reninao sy ny fankatovana betsaka ataony?
When Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?”
23 Ary Jorama nampihodina ka nandositra sady niteny tamin’ i Ahazia hoe: Misy fitaka, ry Ahazia.
Joram turned his hands and fled, and said to Ahaziah, “This is treason, Ahaziah!”
24 Ary nohenjanin’ i Jeho mafy ny tsipìka teny an-tànany, dia nitifitra an’ i Jorama izy ka nahavoa azy teo anelanelan’ ny sorony, ary ny zana-tsipìka niboroaka tamin’ ny fony, ka dia nampianjera azy tao anatin’ ny kalesiny.
Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.
25 Ary hoy Jeho tamin’ i Bidkara lefiny: Betao izy, ka atsipazo ao amin’ ny sahan’ i Nabota Jezirelita; fa tsarovy fa fony izaho sy ianao samy nitaingina kalesy nanaraka an’ i Ahaba rainy, dia nolazain’ i Jehovah fa hihatra aminy izao loza voalaza izao hoe:
Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember how, when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, Yahweh laid this burden on him:
26 Efa hitako tokoa omaly ny ran’ i Nabota sy ny ran’ ny zanany, hoy Jehovah, ary Izaho hamaly anao eto amin’ ity tany ity, hoy Jehovah. Koa betao izy, ka atsipazo amin’ io tany io araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
‘Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,’ says Yahweh; ‘and I will repay you in this plot of ground,’ says Yahweh. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, according to Yahweh’s word.”
27 Ary nony hitan’ i Ahazia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, izany, dia nandositra tamin’ ny lalana mankamin’ ny trano ao anatin’ ny saha izy. Ary Jeho nanaraka azy ka nanao hoe: Indry, asio koa iny; dia nasiany teo anatin’ ny kalesiny teo amin’ ny fiakarana ho any Gora, izay eo anilan’ i Jibleama, izy. Ary nandositra nankany Megido Ahazia ka maty teo.
But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed after him, and said, “Strike him also in the chariot!” They struck him at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. He fled to Megiddo, and died there.
28 Ary ny mpanompony nitondra azy tamin’ ny kalesiny ho any Jerosalema ka nandevina azy tao am-pasany ao amin’ ny razany tao an-tanànan’ i Davida.
His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in David’s city.
29 Ary tamin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Jorama, zanak’ i Ahaba, no vao nanjakan’ i Ahazia tamin’ ny tany Joda.
In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.
30 Dia tonga tany Jezirela Jeho; ary nony nandre izany Jezebela, dia nohosorany loko mainty ny masony, sady noravahany ny lohany, dia nitsidika teo am-baravarankely izy.
When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.
31 Ary nony niditra teo am-bavahady Jeho, dia hoy Jezebela: Fihavanana va, ry Zimry, mpamono tompo?
As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, “Do you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?”
32 Ary niandrandra ny varavaran-kely Jeho ka nanao hoe: Iza aminareo ireo no momba ahy? Iza? Ary nisy tandapa roa na telo teo nitsirika azy.
He lifted up his face to the window, and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.
33 Ary hoy Izy: Azerao io vehivavy io. Dia nazerany izy; ka nisy nipitipitika tamin’ ny rindrin-trano sy ny soavaly ny ràny; ka dia nohitsahin’ i Jeho izy.
He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.
34 Dia niditra tao an-trano Jeho ka nihinana sy nisotro, ary dia nilaza hoe: Mandehana, Izahao ilay vehivavy voaozona, ka aleveno, fa zanakavavin’ ny mpanjaka izy.
When he had come in, he ate and drank. Then he said, “See now to this cursed woman, and bury her; for she is a king’s daughter.”
35 Koa dia lasa ireo handevina azy; nefa tsy nisy tratrany teo afa-tsy ny karan-dohany sy ny tongony ary ny felatanany ihany.
They went to bury her, but they found no more of her than the skull, the feet, and the palms of her hands.
36 Ary niverina ireo ka nanambara taminy. Ary hoy Jeho: Araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izany, dia ilay nampilazainy an’ i Elia Tisbita mpanompony hoe: Ao amin’ ny tany Jezirela no hihinanan’ ny alika ny nofon’ i Jezebela,
Therefore they came back, and told him. He said, “This is Yahweh’s word, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,
37 Ary ny fatiny ho toy ny zezika any an-tsaha, ny amin’ ny tany Jezirela, ka tsy hisy hahazo milaza hoe Jezebela ity.
and the body of Jezebel will be as dung on the surface of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that they won’t say, “This is Jezebel.”’”
