2 Mpanjaka 10
1 Ie amy zao, nanañ’ anake fitom-polo e Somerone ao t’i Akabe. Aa le nanokitse taratasy t’Ieho vaho nampihitrife’e mb’e Somerone mb’eo, amo mpifehe’ Iezreeleo, naho amo androanavio, vaho amo mpañabey o ana’ i Akabeoo, nanao ty hoe:
Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up the sons of Ahab, saying,
2 Ie mivotrak’ ama’ areo ty taratasy toy, zoeñe te ama’ areo o anan-talè’ areoo naho sarete reke-tsoavala naho rova vaho fialiañe;
And now as soon as this letter comes to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, also a fortified city, and armor,
3 le paiao ty soa mañeva amo anan-talè’ areoo, le ajoño am-piambesan-drae’e eo vaho mialia ho a i anjomban-talè’ areoy.
look ye out for the best and fittest of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.
4 F’ie nangebahebake, nifanao ty hoe: Hehe te roe ty mpanjaka tsy nahafiatreatre aze; akore arè ty hijohañan-tika?
But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, the two kings did not stand before him. How then shall we stand?
5 Aa le nañitrik’ am’ Ieho ty talè’ i anjombay naho i bein-drovay naho o androanavio vaho i mpañabey i ajaja reiy, ty hoe; Mpitoro’o zahay, le hene hanoe’ay ze hatoro’o anay; tsy aman-dahilahy hanoe’ay mpanjaka; aa le ano ze soa am-pihaino’o.
And he who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up the sons, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shall bid us. We will not make any man king. Do thou that which is good in thine eyes.
6 Nanokira’e taratasy fañindroe’e, nanao ty hoe; Aa ie ho mpiamako vaho mahafitsendreñe ty feoko, le rambeso ty loha’ o lahilahin’ anan-talè’ areoo vaho mihavia amako e Iezreele atoy hamaray manahake henaneo. O anam-panjakao amy zao, i fitompolo rey, le tam’ ondati-bei’ i rovaio amo mpañabey iareoo.
Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye be on my side, and if ye will hearken to my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time. Now the king's sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city who reared them.
7 Aa ie pok’ am’ iereo i taratasiy, le rinambe’ iereo i anam-panjaka rey, naho zinevo’ iareo indaty fitompolo rey naho najoñe an-koroñe ao o loha’ iareoo vaho nampihitrifeñe mb’e Iezreele mb’eo.
And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and killed them, even seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
8 Nandoak’ ao amy zao ty ìrake, nitalily ama’e, ty hoe: Fa nendese’ iereo ty loha’ o ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaio. Le hoe re, Apoho am-botry roe am-pimoahañe an-dalambey eo pake maraindray.
And a messenger came, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.
9 Ie maraindray, niavotse le nijohañe eo, nanao ty hoe am’ ondaty iabio: Votsotse nahareo; Heheke, nikilily amy talèkoy iraho le nanjevoñ’ aze; fa ia ka ty nañoho-doza amo retoañeo?
And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous. Behold, I conspired against my master, and killed him. But who smote all these?
10 Mahafohina te ndra loli’e tsy hipok’ an-tane amy nitsaràe’ Iehovà i anjomba’ i Akabeiy, fa nanoe’ Iehovà i tsinara’e añamy mpitoro’e Eliàiy.
Know now that there shall fall to the earth nothing of the word of Jehovah, which Jehovah spoke concerning the house of Ahab, for Jehovah has done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.
11 Fonga zinevo’ Ieho ze sehanga’ ty anjomba’ i Akabe e Iezreele ao, naho ondati-bei’eo naho ze hene longo’e naho o mpisoro’e iabio, ampara’ te tsy aman-konka’e.
So Jehu smote all who remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his familiar friends, and his priests, until he left to him none remaining.
12 Niavotse amy zao re nienga mb’eo vaho nigodañe e Somerone ao. Ie nioza an-trañom-pañitsifam-bolon’ añondry an-dalañe ey,
And he arose and departed, and went to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing-house of the shepherds in the way,
13 le nifanampe aman-drolongo’ i Ahkazià, mpanjaka’ Iehoda, naho nanao ty hoe; Ia v’inahareoo? vaho hoe ty natoi’ iareo: Longo’ i Ahkazià zahay, mizotso mb’eo hifañontane amo anam-panjakao naho amo ana’ i mpanjaka-ampelaio.
Jehu met with the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brothers of Ahaziah, and we go down to salute the sons of the king and the sons of the queen.
14 Le hoe re: Itsepaho veloñe. Aa le rinambe veloñe vaho zinevo’ iereo an-kobo’ i trañom-pihitsifañey t’indaty efa-polo-ro’ amby; le tsy napo’e sehanga’e.
And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and killed them at the pit of the shearing-house, even forty-two men; neither did he leave any of them.
15 Ie nienga ao, le tendreke Iehonadabe ana’ i Rekabe, ie nimb’ eo hifanalaka ama’e; le nañontanea’e ty hoe: Mazava hao ty arofo’o manahake ty troko amo arofo’oo? Eka, hoe ty natoi’ Iehonadabe. Aa naho izay, atoloro ahy o fità’oo. Le nahiti’e ama’e i fità’ey vaho rinambe’e amy sarete’ey.
And when he was departed from there, he came upon on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him. And he saluted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.
16 Le hoe re: Mindreza amako, hahaisaha’o ty fahimbañako am’ Iehovà. Aa le najo’e an-tsarete’e ao.
And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for Jehovah. So they made him ride in his chariot.
17 Ie nivotrake e Somerone le fonga linihi’e ze nisisa’ i Akabe e Somerone ao, ampara’ te nimongore’e, ty amy tsara’ Iehovà nitsarae’e amy Eliày.
And when he came to Samaria, he smote all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke to Elijah.
18 Hene natonto’ Ieho amy zao ondatio le nanoe’e ty hoe; Nitoroñe i Baale tsy ampeampe t’i Akabe; fa hitoroñe aze fatratse ka t’Ieho.
And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.
19 Aa le koiho iaby o mpitoki’ i Baaleo, ze hene mpitalaho ama’e, o fonga mpisoro’eo, le ko apo’o ndra raike; fa hanao sorom-bey amy Baale iraho, tsy ho veloñe ze tsy eo. Fe am-pamañahiañe ty nanoe’ Ieho i hoe zay hanjamana’e o mpitalaho amy Baaleo.
Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshippers, and all his priests. Let none be lacking, for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal. Whoever shall be lacking, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtlety, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
20 Le hoe t’Ieho: Añefero fivory miambake amy Baale. Le kinoi’ iereo.
And Jehu said, Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
21 Aa le nañitrik’ am-panitsihañe Israele t’Ieho; le nimb’eo iaby o mpitalaho amy Baaleo, ampara’ t’ie fonga niavy tsy poke raike. Ie nimoak’ an-tsokemitraha’ i Baaley le ninitse sikal’ am-pata’e pak’an-tondohà’e i anjomba’ i Baaley.
And Jehu sent through all Israel. And all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was filled from one end to another.
22 Le hoe re amy mpamandroñe saroñey, Añakaro sikiñe iaby o mpitalaho amy Baaleo. Le sindre nañakara’e saroñe.
And he said to him who was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought forth for them vestments.
23 Nimoak’ añ’anjomba’ i Baaley t’Iohabe rekets’ Iehonadabe ana’ i Rekabe; le hoe re amo mpitalaho amy Baaleo; Paiavo, le rendreho tsy ho zoeñe ama’ areo ao ndra raik’ amo mpitoro’ Iehovà fa mpitoro’ i Baale avao.
And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal. And he said to the worshippers of Baal, Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of Jehovah, but the worshippers of Baal only.
24 Aa le nimb’ ao iereo hañenga naho hisoroñe. Ie amy zao fa nanendre ondaty valompolo alafe’e ao, ami’ty hoe: Naho mipolititse ty raik’ am’ ondaty hatoloko am-pità’ areoo le ty fiai’ i nañaha azey ty hisolo ty fiai’e.
And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had appointed for him eighty men outside, and said, If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escape, he who lets him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
25 Aa ie vata’e nigadoñe i fisoroñañey, le hoe t’Ieho amo mpañambeñeo naho amo mpifeheo. Mimoaha, le zevòño; ko apo’ areo hiakatse, leo raike. Aa le zinevo’ iereo an-delam-pibara; le navokovoko’ o mpañambeñeo naho o mpifeheo alafe’e ao vaho nizilik’ añate’ ty efe’ i Baale ao.
And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and kill them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword. And the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
26 Nakare’ iereo o hazomanga añ’ anjomba’ i Baaleo, le niforototoeñe.
And they brought forth the pillars that were in the house of Baal, and burned them.
27 Nakoroma’ iereo i hazomanga’ i Baaley naho narotsa’ iereo i anjomba’ i Baaley vaho nanoe’ iereo fieveñañe am-para’ henanekeo.
And they broke down the pillar of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it an out-house to this day.
28 Izay ty namongora’ Ieho i Baale am’ Israele.
Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
29 Fe, tsy napo’ Ieho ty hakeo’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate, i nampanan-tahiñe Israele amy bania volamena e Betele naho e Dane ao rey.
However from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin, Jehu did not depart from after them, namely, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
30 Le hoe t’Iehovà am’Ieho, Ami’ty hasoa nanoe’o a masoko amy nitoloña’o amy anjomba’ i Akabeiy, ie hene nanoe’o ze tan-troko, le hiambesatse amy fiambesa’ Israeley o ana’oo am-para’ty tariratse fah’efatse.
And Jehovah said to Jehu, Because thou have done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy sons of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.
31 Fe tsy nihaoñe’ Ieho añ’ àmpon’arofo ty fañaveloa’e amy Tsara’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley, vaho tsy nisitaha’e o hakeo’ Iarovame nampanan-tahiñe Israeleo.
But Jehu did not take heed to walk in the law of Jehovah, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin.
32 Niorotse nampitomotse Israele t’Iehovà; le linafa’ i Kazaele o añ’olon-tane’ Israeleo iabio;
In those days Jehovah began to cut off from Israel. And Hazael smote them in all the borders of Israel,
33 boak’ am’ Iordaney maniñanañe, i tanen-Gilade iabiy, o nte-Gadeo, naho o nte Reobeneo, vaho o nte-Menasèo, boak’ amy Aroere, añ’ ilam-bavatane’ Arnone eo le i Gilade naho i Basane.
from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
34 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Ieho ila’eo naho ze he’e nanoe’e, i haozara’e iabiy, tsy fa sinokitse am-bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Israeleo hao?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
35 Nitrao-piròtse aman-droa’e t’Ieho, ie nalente’ iareo e Somerone ao. Nandimbe aze nifehe t’Iehoakaze ana’e.
And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
36 Roapolo-valo’ amby taoñe ty nifehea’ Ieho Israele e Somerone ao.
And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
