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.
Pea naʻe ui mai ʻe ʻIlaisa ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻae kau palōfita, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Nonoʻo ho noʻotanga vala, mo ke ʻave ʻi ho nima ʻae puha ni ʻoe lolo, pea ke ʻalu ki Lemoti-Kiliati:
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.
Pea ʻoka ke ka hoko atu ki ai, ke ke kumi kia Sehu ko e foha ʻo Sihosafate ko e foha ʻo Nimisi, pea ke hū atu, pea ke pule ke ne tuʻu hake mei he haʻohaʻonga ʻo hono kāinga, pea ke ʻave ia ki ha loki ʻi loto fale;
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.
Pea ke toki toʻo ʻae puha lolo, mo ke lilingi ki hono ʻulu, mo ke pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Kuo u fakanofo koe ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsileli.’ Pea hili ia ke ke fakaava ʻae matapā, pea ke hola, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fakatuotuai.”
4 Heoi haere ana taua taitama, ara te taitama, te poropiti, ki Ramoto Kireara.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻae tangata talavou, ʻio, ʻae palōfita talavou, ki Lemoti-Kiliati.
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.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ange, vakai, naʻe nonofo fakataha ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe kautau; pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo u haʻu mo ha fekau kiate koe, ʻe ʻeiki.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Kia hai ʻiate kimautolu kotoa pē?” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Kiate koe, ʻe ʻeiki.”
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.
Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake, mo ne hū atu ai ki loto fale; pea naʻa ne lilingi ʻae lolo ki hono ʻulu, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Kuo u fakanofo koe ko e tuʻi ke pule ki he kakai ʻa Sihova, ʻio, ki ʻIsileli.
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.
Pea te ke taaʻi ʻae fale ʻo ʻEhapi ko hoʻo ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke u fai totongi koeʻuhi ko e toto ʻo ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita, pea mo e toto ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ʻi he nima ʻo Sisipeli.
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.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻauha ʻae fale kotoa ʻo ʻEhapi: pea te u motuhi meia ʻEhapi ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē pea mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku tāpuni mo toe ʻi ʻIsileli:
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.
Pea te u ngaohi ke tatau ʻae fale ʻo ʻEhapi mo e fale ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, pea ke tatau mo e fale ʻo Paʻasa ko e foha ʻo ʻAhisa:
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.
Pea ʻe keina ʻa Sisipeli ʻe he fanga kulī ʻi he potu ʻo Sesilili, pea ʻe ʻikai tanu ia ʻe ha tokotaha.’” Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae matapā mo ne hola.
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.
Hili ia naʻe hū mai kituʻa ʻa Sehu ki he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻene ʻeiki: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē? Ko e hā naʻe haʻu ai ʻae siana faha ni kiate koe?” Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou ʻilo pe ʻae tangata, pea mo ʻene lau.”
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.
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e loi; ka ke tala mai ni.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Naʻe pehē mo pehē ʻa ʻene lea kiate au, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova kuo u fakanofo koe ke ke tuʻi ki ʻIsileli.’”
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.
Pea naʻa nau fai vave ai, pea toʻo taki taha ʻe he tangata ʻa hono kofu, pea ʻai ia ki lalo ʻiate ia ʻi he potu māʻolunga ʻoe hala tuʻunga, pea [naʻa nau ]ifi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku tuʻi ʻa Sehu.”
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:
Ko ia naʻe te u lapa ʻe Sehu ko e foha ʻo Sihosafate ko e foha ʻo Nimisi kia Solami. (Ka ko eni naʻe maʻu pe ʻe Solami ʻa Lemoti-Kiliati, ʻe ia mo ʻIsileli kātoa, koeʻuhi ko Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia.
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.
Ka kuo liliu mai ʻa Solami ki Sesilili ke fakamoʻui ia mei he ngaahi lavea naʻa ne lavea ai ʻi he kakai Silia, ʻi heʻene tau mo Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia.) Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Kapau ko homou loto ia, pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ha taha ke ʻalu atu pe hao mei he kolo ke ʻalu ʻo fakahā ia ʻi Sesilili.”
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.
Pea pehē, naʻe heka ʻa Sehu ʻi ha saliote, mo ne ʻalu ki Sesilili; he naʻe tokoto ai ʻa Solami. Pea kuo haʻu ʻa ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ke ʻaʻahi kia Solami.
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?
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae tangata leʻo ʻi he fale māʻolunga ʻo Sesilili, pea naʻa ne mamata ki he kau fononga ʻo Sehu ʻi heʻene haʻu, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku ou sio ki ha fononga.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solami, “Fekau ki ha tangata heka hoosi, ke ʻalu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu,” pea tala ke ne pehē, “Ko e lelei pe ʻikai?”
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.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokotaha naʻe heka hoosi ke fetaulaki mo ia, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe he tuʻi, pe ko e lelei pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Ko e hā ʻa hoʻo kau ʻaʻau ki he lelei? Foki atu ki hoku tuʻa. Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe hokoange ʻae tangata fekau kiate kinautolu ka ʻoku ʻikai toe foki mai ia.”
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.
Pea naʻa ne toki fekau atu ha tokotaha kehe ke heka hoosi, pea naʻa ne hokoange kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe he tuʻi, pe ko e lelei pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sehu, “Ko e hā ʻa hoʻo kau ʻaʻau ki he lelei? ʻAlu koe ki hoku tuʻa.”
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.
Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo pehē, “Naʻa ne hoko atu kiate kinautolu, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne toe foki mai: pea ko e angi ki [he manu ]ʻoku hangē ko e ʻalu ʻa Sehu ko e foha ʻo Nimisi; he ʻoku ne ʻalu fakavave ʻaupito.”
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solami, “Mou teuteu.” Pea naʻe teuteu ʻa hono saliote. Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Solami ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e taki taha ʻi hono saliote, pea naʻa na ʻalu atu ke tali ʻa Sehu, pea naʻa nau fetaulaki mo ia ʻi he ʻapi ʻo Napoti ko e tangata Sesilili.
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?
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Solami kia Sehu, naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE Sehu, ʻoku lelei pē pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻO lelei fēfeeʻi ka kuo lahi pehē fau ʻae ngaahi feʻauaki mo e ngaahi ngāue fakatēvolo ʻa hoʻo faʻē ko Sisipeli?”
23 Na ka huri nga ringa o Iehorama, a rere ana, me te karanga ano ki a Ahatia, He kopeka, e Ahatia!
Pea naʻe fakatafoki ʻae nima ʻo Solami, pea naʻa ne hola, ʻo ne pehē kia ʻAhasia, “ʻE ʻAhasia kuo fai ʻae lapa.”
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.
Pea naʻe tekeʻi ʻe Sehu ʻae kaufana ʻaki ʻa ʻene mālohi kātoa, pea naʻa ne fanaʻi ʻa Solami ʻi hono vahaʻa nima, pea naʻe ʻasi atu ʻae ngahau mei hono mafu, pea naʻa ne tō hifo ʻi hono saliote.
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;
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe [Sehu ]kia Pitikali ko ʻene ʻeikitau, “Toʻo hake mo lī ia ki he potu ʻi he ngoue ʻoe tautea ni kiate ia;
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.
‘ko e moʻoni kuo u mamata ʻaneafi ki he toto ʻo Napoti mo e toto ʻo hono ngaahi foha,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ki he potu na, ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.”
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.
Ka ʻi heʻene mamata ki ai ni ʻa ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻa ne hola ʻi he hala ʻoe fale ngoue. Pea naʻe muimui kiate ia ʻa Sehu, mo ne pehē, “Tāʻi foki ia ʻi hono saliote.” Pea naʻe fai ia ʻi he hakenga ki Kuli ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki Ipiliami. Pea naʻa ne hola ki Mekito, mo ne pekia ʻi ai.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻave ia ʻi ha saliote ki Selūsalema ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea naʻe fai hono putu ki he fonualoto ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita.
29 No te tekau ma tahi o nga tau o Iorama tama a Ahapa i kingi ai a Ahatia ki Hura.
Pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu ʻa Solami ko e foha ʻo ʻEhapi naʻe kamata pule ʻa ʻAhasia ki Siuta.
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.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai ʻa Sehu ki Sesilili, naʻe fanongo ʻa Sisipeli ki ai; pea naʻa ne ʻai ʻae loa ki hono mata, mo ne ʻai ʻae teunga ki hono ʻulu, pea sio ia mei he matapā sioʻata.
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?
Pea feʻunga mo ʻene hū mai ʻa Sehu ʻi he matapā ʻoe kolo, naʻa ne pehē, “Naʻe lelei koā ʻa Simili, ʻaia naʻa ne fakapoongi ʻa ʻene ʻeiki?”
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.
Pea naʻe hanga hake ʻe ia ʻa hono mata ki he matapā sioʻata, mo ne pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku kau kiate au? Ko hai?” Pea naʻe sio mai mei he matapā sioʻata ha kau tangata tali fekau ʻe toko ua pe toko tolu.
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Laku hifo ia.” Ko ia naʻa nau laku ia ki lalo: pea naʻe puna ʻa hono toto ki he ʻā, pea ki he fanga hoosi: pea naʻa ne malaki hifo ia ʻi hono lalo vaʻe.
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.
Pea ʻi heʻene hū mai ki loto fale, naʻa ne kai mo inu, mo ne pehē, “Mou ʻalu, ʻo sio eni ki he fefine malaʻia ni, pea ʻave ʻo tanu ia; he ko e ʻofefine ia ʻo ha tuʻi.”
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.
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu ke fai hono tanu: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo hano potu ka ko hono ʻulupoko pe, mo e foʻi vaʻe, pea mo e ʻaofi nima.
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.
Ko ia naʻa nau toe omi ai ʻo fakahā kiate ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko eni ia ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻi heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko ʻIlaisiā ko e tangata Tisipa, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻI he potu [fonua ]ʻo Sesilili ʻe keina ʻe he fanga kulī ʻae kakano ʻo Sisipeli.
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.
Pea ʻe tatau ʻae ʻangaʻanga ʻo Sisipeli mo e kinohaʻa ʻi he funga fonua ʻi he potu ʻo Sesilili; pea ʻe ʻikai ai te nau faʻa pehē, Ko Sisipeli eni.’”
