2 Kingi 9
1 Na ka karanga a Eriha poropiti ki tetahi o nga tama a nga poropiti, a ka mea ki a ia, Whitikiria tou hope, ka mau i tenei pounamu hinu i tou ringa, ka haere ki Ramoto Kireara.
And Eliseus the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, slid said to him: Gird up thy loins, and take this little bottle of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth Galaad.
2 E tae koe ki reira, tirohia atu i reira a Iehu tama a Iehohapata tama a Nimihi, ka haere koe, ka mea i a ia kia whakatika i roto i ona tuakana, a ka mau i a ia ki tetahi ruma i roto.
And when thou art come thither, thou shalt see Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi: and going in thou shalt make him rise up from amongst his brethren, and carry him into an inner chamber.
3 Katahi ka mau ki te pounamu hinu, ka riringi ki runga ki tona matenga, ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo Iharaira. Ko reira koe uaki ai i te tatu, ka rere, a kaua e whakaroa.
Then taking the little bottle of oil, thou shalt pour it on his head, and shalt say: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel. And thou shalt open the door and flee, and shalt not stay there.
4 Heoi haere ana taua taitama, ara te taitama, te poropiti, ki Ramoto Kireara.
So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went awry to Ramoth Galaad,
5 A, no tona taenga atu, na ko nga rangatira o te ope e noho ana; a ka mea ia, He kupu taku ki a koe, e te rangatira. Ano ra ko Iehu, Ki a wai koia o matou katoa? Ano ra ko tera, Ki a koe, e te rangatira.
And went in thither: and behold the captains of the army were sitting: and he said: I have a word to thee, O prince. And Jehu said: Unto whom of us all? And he said: To thee, O prince.
6 Na whakatika ana ia, a haere ana ki roto ki te whare; na ringihia ana e tera te hinu ki tona matenga, a ka mea ki a ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo ta Ihowa iwi, mo Iharaira.
And he arose, and went into the chamber: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over Israel, the people of the Lord.
7 A mau e patu te whare o Ahapa, o tou ariki, kia whai utu ai ahau mo nga toto o aku pononga, o nga poropiti, mo nga toto hoki o nga pononga katoa a Ihowa, i te ringa o Ietepere.
And thou shalt cut off the house of Achab thy master, and I will revenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord at the hand of Jezabel.
8 Ka ngaro hoki te whare katoa o Ahapa: a ka hautopea atu e ahau i a Ahapa nga tamariki tane katoa, me nga mea i tutakina atu, i mahue ranei i roto i a Iharaira.
And I will destroy all the house of Achab, and I will cut off from Achab him that pisseth against the well, and him that is shut up, and the meanest in Israel.
9 A ka meinga e ahau te whare o Ahapa kia rite ki te whare o Ieropoama tama a Nepata, ki te whare hoki o Paaha tama a Ahia.
And I will make the house of Achab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias.
10 Na ma nga kuri e kai a Ietepere ki te wahi o Ietereere, a kahore he tangata hei tanu i a ia. Na uakina ana e ia te tatau, a rere ana.
And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel, and there shall be no one to bury her. And he opened the door and fled.
11 Katahi a Iehu ka puta mai ki waho, ki nga pononga a tona ariki; a ka mea tetahi ki a ia, Kei te pai ranei? he aha tenei poauau i haere mai ai ki a koe? Ano ra ko ia ki a ratou, E mohio ana koutou ki te tangata ra, ki ana korero hoki.
Then Jehu went forth to the servants of his lord: and they said to him: Are all things well? why came this mad man to thee? And he said to them: You know the man, and what he said.
12 Ano ra ko ratou, He teka: korerotia mai ki a matou inaianei. Na ka mea ia, Koia ano tenei ana korero ki ahau, Ko ta Ihowa kupu tenei, Ka oti koe te whakawahi e ahau hei kingi mo Iharaira.
But they answered: It is false, but rather do thou tell us. And he said to them: Thus and thus did he speak to me: and he said: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel.
13 Na hohoro tonu ratou, ka mau ki tona kakahu, ki tona kakahu, wharikitia iho ki raro i a ia, i runga i te arawhata, a whakatangihia ana te tetere, me te ki ano, Ko Iehu te kingi.
Then they made haste and taking every man his garment laid it under his feet, after the manner of a judgment seat, and they sounded the trumpet, and said: Jehu is king.
14 Heoi whakatupuria ana e Iehu tama a Iehohapata tama a Nimihi he he mo Iorama. Na i puritia e Iorama, e ratou ko Iharaira katoa, a Ramoto Kireara, he whakaaro ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria:
So Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Galaad, he and all Israel fighting with Hazael king of Syria:
15 Ko Kingi Iehorama ia kua hoki ki Ietereere kia rongoatia ona tunga i tu ai ia i nga Hiriani i tana whawhai ki a Hataere kingi o Hiria. Na ka mea a Iehu, Mehemea ko to koutou whakaaro tenei, na kei tukua tetahi ki waho, kei puta atu i te pa, ka h aere ka korero ki Ietereere.
And was returned to be healed in Jezrahel of his wounds, for the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said: If it please you, let no mall go forth or flee out of the city, lest he go, and tell in Jezrahel.
16 Heoi eke ana a Iehu ki te hariata, a haere ana ki Ietereere; i reira hoki a Iorama e takoto ana. A ko Ahatia kingi o Hura kua riro ki raro, kia kite i a Iorama.
And he got up, and went into Jezrahel: for Joram was sick there, and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to visit Joram.
17 Na ko te kaitutei i runga i te pourewa i Ietereere e tu ana, a ka kitea e ia te ropu a Iehu i a ia e haere mai ana, na ka mea, Kei te kite atu ahau i te ope tangata. Na ka mea a Iehorama, Tikina he tangata eke hoiho, ka unga ki te whakatutaki i a ratou, a mana e mea atu, He pai ranei?
The watchmen therefore, that stood upon the tower of Jezrahel, saw the troop of Jehu coming, and said: I see a troop. And Joram said: Take a chariot, and send to meet them, and let him that goeth say: Is all well?
18 Heoi haere ana tetahi i runga i te hoiho ki te whakatau i a ia a ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a te kingi, He pai ranei? Ano ra ko Iehu, Hei aha mau te pai? haere ake ki muri i ahau. A ka korero te kaitutei, ka mea, I tae te karere ki a ratou, otiia kahore ano kia hoki mai.
So there went one in a chariot to meet him, and said: Thus saith the king: Are all things peaceable? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? go behind and follow me. And the watchman told, saying: The messenger came to them, but he returneth not.
19 Katahi ka unga ano e ia tetahi atu kaieke hoiho, a ka tae tera ki a ratou, ka mea, Ko te kupu tenei a te kingi, He pai ranei? Ano ra ko Iehu, Hei aha mau te pai? hui ake koe ki muri i ahau.
And he sent a second chariot of horses: and he came to them, and said: Thus saith the king: Is there peace? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? pass, and follow me.
20 Na ka korero te kaitutei, ka mea, I tae ia ki a ratou, ehoi kahore ano kia hoki mai: a ko te whui o te hariata, rite tonu ki te whiu a te hariata, rite tonu ki te whiu a Iehu tama a Nimihi; he porangi rawa hoki tana whiu.
And the watchman told, saying: He came even to them, but returneth not: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Namsi, for he drives furiously.
21 Na ka mea a Iehorama, Whakanohoia. Na whakanohoia ana e ratou tona hariata. A ka puta a Iehorama kingi o Iharaira raua ko Ahatia kingi o Hura i runga i tona hariata, i tona hariata, a haere ana ki te whakatutaki i a Iehu, a tutaki ana ki a ia ki te wahi o Napoto Ietereeri.
And Joram said: Make ready the chariot. And they made ready his chariot, and Joram king of Israel, and Ochozias king of Juda went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
22 Na, i te kitenga o Iehorama i a Iehu, ka mea ia, He pai ranei, e Iehu? Ano ra ko ia, He pai aha, i te hanga e hua tonu ana nga moepuku me nga mahi makutu a tou whaea, a Ietepere?
And when Joram saw Jehu, he said: Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered: What peace? so long as the fornications of Jezabel thy mother, and her many sorceries are in their vigour.
23 Na ka huri nga ringa o Iehorama, a rere ana, me te karanga ano ki a Ahatia, He kopeka, e Ahatia!
And Joram turned his hand, and fleeing, said to Ochozias: There is treachery, Ochozias.
24 Na kumea ana e Iehu tana kopere ki tona kaha katoa, a perea ana a Iehorama ki waenga pu o ona ringa, a puta atu ana te pere i tona ngakau, a hinga iho ana ia i roto i tona hariata.
But Jehu bent Iris bow with his hand, and shot Joram between the shoulders: and the arrow went out through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.
25 Katahi ka mea a Iehu ki a Pirikara, ki tana rangatira, Hikitia ake, maka atu ia ki te wahi o te mara a Napoto Ietereeri: kia mahara hoki, i to taua haerenga i runga hoiho i muri i a Ahapa, i tona papa, ka whakapikaua e Ihowa tenei pikaunga ki ru nga ki a ia;
And Jehu said to Badacer his captain: Take him, and cast him into the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite: for I remember when I and thou sitting in a chariot followed Achab this man’s father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him, saying:
26 I kitea putia e ahau inanahi nga toto o Napoto, me nga toto o ana tama, e ai ta Ihowa; a ka utua koe e ahau ki tenei wahi, e ai ta Ihowa. Na reira, tikina, maka ia ki taua wahi whenua, kia rite ki te kupu a Ihowa.
If I do not requite thee in this field, saith the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his children, which I saw yesterday, saith the Lord. So now take him, and cast him into the field, according to the word of the Lord.
27 Otiia, i te kitenga o Ahatia kingi o Hura i tenei, rere ana ia na te ara o te whare kari. Na whaia ana ia e Iehu, a i mea tera, Patua ano hoki ia i runga i te hariata; na patua ana ia e ratou i te pikitanga ki Kuru, ki tera i te taha o Ipereama. Na rere ana ia ki Mekiro, a mate iho ki reira.
But Ochozias king of Juda seeing this, fled by the way of the garden house: and Jehu pursued him, and said: Strike him also in his chariot. And they struck him in the going up to Gaver, which is by Jeblaam: and he fled into Mageddo, and died there.
28 Na kawea ana ia e ana tangata i runga i te hariata ki Hiruharama, a tanumia ana ki tona urupa, ki ona matua i te pa o Rawiri.
And his servants laid him upon his chariot, and carried him to Jerusalem: and they buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.
29 No te tekau ma tahi o nga tau o Iorama tama a Ahapa i kingi ai a Ahatia ki Hura.
In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Achab, Ochozias reigned over Juda,
30 Na, i te haerenga o Iehu ki Ietereere, ka rongo a Ietepere; na ka pania e ia ona kanohi, a ka tino whakapaipaitia tona mahunga, a ka titiro atu ia i te matapihi.
And Jehu came into Jezrahel. But Jezabel hearing of his coming in, painted her face with stibic stone, and adorned her head, and looked out of a window
31 Na, i a Iehu e tomo mai ana i te kuwaha, ka mea tera, He rongo mau ranei, e koe, e te Timiri, e te kaikohuru i tou ariki?
At Jehu coming in at the gate, and said: Can there be peace for Zambri, that hath killed his master?
32 Na ka maranga ake tona mata ki te matapihi, ka mea, Ko wai toku? ko wai ra? Na ka titiro iho etahi unaka, tokorua, tokotoru, ki a ia.
And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and said: Who is this? And two or three eunuchs bowed down to him.
33 Na ka mea ia, Maka iho ia ki raro. Heoi maka iho ana e ratou; a parati ana etahi o ona toto ki te pakitara, a ki runga hoki ki nga hoiho; a takahia ana ia e ia ki raro ki ona waewae.
And he said to them: Throw her down headlong: and they threw her down, and the wall was sprinkled with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trod upon her.
34 Na haere ana ia ki roto, kei te kai, kei te inu; a ka mea ia, Tena tirohia te wahine kua kanga nei, a tanumia ia: he tamahine kingi hoki ia.
And when he was come in, to eat, and to drink, he said: Go, and see after that cursed woman, and bury her: because she is a king’s daughter.
35 Na haere ana ratou ki te tanu i a ia; otiia kahore he wahi ona i kitea e ratou, ko te angaanga anake, ko nga waewae, ko nga kapu o ona ringa.
And when they went to bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the extremities of her hands.
36 No reira hoki ana ratou, a ka korero ki a ia. A ka mea ia, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, i korerotia ra e tana pononga, e Iraia Tihipi, i mea ra ia, Hei te wahi o Ietereere kainga ai e nga kuri nga kikokiko o Ietepere.
And coming back they told him. And Jehu said: It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servant Elias the Thesbite, saying: In the field of Jezrahel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezabel,
37 A ka waiho te tinana o Ietepere hei para hamiti ki runga ki te mate o te parae i te wahi o Ietereere; a kahore e kiia, Ko Ietepere tenei.
And the flesh of Jezabel shall be as dung upon the face of the earth in the field of Jezrahel, so that they who pass by shall say: Is this that same Jezabel?
