2 Amakhosi 10
1 ESamariya kwakulamadodana angamatshumi ayisikhombisa ayengawendlu ka-Ahabi. Ngakho uJehu waloba izincwadi elobela izikhulu zaseJezerili, abadala lakulabo ababesondla abantwana baka-Ahabi. Waloba kanje:
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe ʻEhapi ʻae foha ʻe toko fitungofulu ʻi Samēlia. Pea naʻe fai ʻe Sehu ʻae ngaahi tohi, mo ne ʻave ki Samēlia, ki he kau pule ʻi Sesilili, pea ki he kau mātuʻa, pea kiate kinautolu naʻa nau tauhi ki he fānau ʻa ʻEhapi, ʻo pehē,
2 “Masinyazana ekuboneni kwenu lincwadi, njengoba abantwana benkosi yenu besezandleni zenu njalo lilezinqola zokulwa lamabhiza, umuzi wenqaba lezikhali,
“Ko eni ka mou ka maʻu leva ʻae tohi ni, ka kuo ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo homou ʻeiki, pea ʻoku mou maʻu ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e ngaahi hoosi, mo e kolo tau foki, pea mo e mahafu;
3 khethani lowo elimbona efanele kulabo bonke phakathi kwamadodana enkosi yenu limfake esihlalweni sikayise sobukhosi, beselilwela indlu yenkosi yenu.”
Fili mai ʻaia ʻoku lelei hake mo ngali ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo homou ʻeiki, pea fakanofo ia ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo ʻene tamai, pea mou tau maʻae fale ʻo homou ʻeiki.”
4 Kodwa besaba bathi: “Nxa amakhosi amabili ehlulekile ukumelana laye, thina singakwenza njani?”
Ka naʻa nau manavahē lahi ʻaupito, ʻonau pehē, “Vakai naʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao ʻae tuʻi ʻe toko ua: pea kapau kuo pehē te tau faʻa tuʻu fēfē ʻakitautolu?”
5 Ngakho isiphathamandla sesigodlo, usibalukhulu, abadala kanye labalindi bathumela lelilizwi kuJehu, “Sizinceku zakho, njalo sizakwenza konke njengokutsho kwakho. Kakho esizamkhetha ukuba abe yinkosi; yenza lokho obona kulungile kakhulu.”
Pea ko e tangata ʻaia naʻe pule ki he fale, pea mo ia naʻe pule ki he kolo, mo e kau mātuʻa foki, pea mo kinautolu naʻe tauhi [ʻae fānau], naʻa nau fekau atu kia Sehu, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu, pea te mau fai ʻae meʻa kotoa pē te ke fekau mai; ʻe ʻikai te mau fakanofo ha tuʻi: ka ke fai ʻaia ʻoku lelei ʻi ho mata ʻoʻou.”
6 Ngakho uJehu wabalobela incwadi yesibili esithi, “Nxa livumelana lami njalo lizimisele ukungilalela, qumani amakhanda amadodana enkosi yenu libe selibuya lawo kusasa eJezerili ngasonalesisikhathi.” Amakhosana esikhosini, ayengamatshumi ayisikhombisa, ayehlala lamadoda aqakathekileyo phakathi komuzi, okuyiwo ayesondla amadodana enkosi.
Pea naʻa ne toki tohi ʻa hono ua ʻoe tohi kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Kapau ʻoku mou kau kiate au, pea kapau te mou fakaongo ki hoku leʻo, mou tutuʻu ʻae ʻulu ʻoe kau tangata, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo homou ʻeiki, pea mou omi kiate au ki Sesilili ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ni ʻapongipongi.” Ka ko eni, ko e ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, ko e toko fitungofulu, naʻa nau nofo mo e houʻeiki ʻoe kolo, ʻaia naʻe tauhi ʻakinautolu.
7 Incwadi yathi ifika, amadoda la abulala wonke amakhosana angamatshumi ayisikhombisa. Afaka amakhanda awo ezitsheni awathumela kuJehu eJezerili.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hoko mai ʻae tohi kiate kinautolu, naʻa nau ʻave ʻae ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi, mo nau tāmateʻi ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fitungofulu, mo nau ʻai honau ʻulu ki he ngaahi kato, mo nau ʻave ia kiate ia ʻi Sesilili.
8 Isithunywa sithe sifika satshela uJehu sathi: “Sebewalethile amakhanda amakhosana.” UJehu wasekhupha ilizwi esithi, “Abutheleleni abe zinqwaba ezimbili esangweni lomuzi kuze kube sekuseni.”
Pea naʻe haʻu ha tangata fekau, mo ne fakahā ki ai, ʻo pehē, “Kuo nau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻulu ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Mou fokotuʻu ia ʻi he tuʻunga ʻe ua ʻi he hūʻanga ʻoe matanikolo ʻo aʻu ki he ʻapongipongi.”
9 Ngosuku olulandelayo uJehu waphuma; wema phambi kwabantu wathi, “Lina limsulwa. Yimi engithame ukubulala inkosi yami njalo ngiyibulele, kodwa ngubani obulele bonke laba?
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ki he pongipongi, naʻa ne ʻalu atu, mo ne tuʻu ai, mo ne pehē ʻe ia ki he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻOku mou angatonu ʻakimoutolu; vakai naʻaku fai ʻae lapa ki heʻeku ʻeiki pea naʻaku tāmateʻi ia: ka ko hai naʻe tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ni kotoa pē?
10 Alibokwazi ukuthi akukho lalinye ilizwi elivela kuThixo lingxame u-Ahabi labendlu yakhe, elizakwehluleka. UThixo usekwenzile lokho akuthembisa ngenceku yakhe u-Elija.”
Ko ia mou ʻilo eni ʻe ʻikai tō ki he kelekele ha momoʻi meʻa ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova ki he fale ʻo ʻEhapi: he kuo fai ʻe Sihova ʻae meʻa naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻi heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko ʻIlaisiā.”
11 Ngakho uJehu wabulala bonke eJezerili abendlu ka-Ahabi ababesele, kanye lezikhulu zakhe, abangane bakhe abasekhwapheni labaphristi bakhe, akusalanga muntu kwabendlu ka-Ahabi.
Ko ia, naʻe tāmateʻi ʻe Sehu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe toe ʻi he fale ʻo ʻEhapi ʻi Sesilili, pea mo ʻene kakai ongoongo kotoa pē, pea mo hono kāinga, mo ʻene kautaulaʻeiki, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ke toe ha tokotaha kiate ia.
12 UJehu waphuma njalo waqonda eSamariya. EBhethi-Ekhedi yaBelusi,
Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake ʻo ne ʻalu, pea ne hoko ange ki Samēlia. Pea ʻi heʻene nofo ki he fale, ko e kosi ʻanga ʻoe fanga sipi, ʻi he hala,
13 wahlangana lezihlobo zika-Ahaziya inkosi yakoJuda wababuza wathi, “Lingobani lina na?” Bona bamphendula bathi, “Siyizihlobo zika-Ahaziya, njalo sizekwethekelela abendlu yenkosi kanye lendlovukazi engunina.”
Naʻe fetaulaki ʻa Sehu mo e kāinga ʻo ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hai ʻakimoutolu?” Pea naʻa nau pehēange, “Ko e kāinga ʻakimautolu ʻo ʻAhasia; pea ʻoku mau ʻalu hifo ke ʻaʻahi fakakāinga ki he fānau ʻae tuʻi mo e fānau ʻae tuʻi fefine.”
14 Yena wathi ezincekwini zakhe, “Bathatheni bephila!” Ngakho babathatha bephila bayababulalela emthonjeni weBhethi-Ekhedi, babengamadoda angamatshumi amane. Kakho loyedwa abamtshiya ephila.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Puke moʻui ʻakinautolu.” Pea naʻa nau puke moʻui pe ʻakinautolu, mo nau tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngutu luo ʻi he fale ʻoe kosi ʻanga sipi, ʻio, ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko fāngofulu ma toko ua; pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tuku foki ha taha ʻokinautolu.
15 Ngemva kokusuka kwakhe lapho, wahlangana loJehonadabi indodana kaRekhabi, owayesendleleni ezomhlangabeza. UJehu wambingelela wathi, “Wena uvumelana lami na, njengoba mina ngikanye lawe?” UJehonadabi waphendula wathi, “Mina ngilawe.” UJehu wathi, “Nxa kunjalo ngibamba isandla,” kwathi esembambile wamkhweza enqoleni yokulwa.
Pea ʻi heʻene mahuʻi atu mei he potu ko ia, naʻa ne ʻilo ʻa Sonatapi ko e foha ʻo Lekapi naʻe fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia: pea naʻa ne fetapa ki ai, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku angatonu ho loto, ʻo hangē ko e kau ʻa hoku loto mo ho loto?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sonatapi, “ʻIo, ʻoku pehē.” “Kapau ʻoku pehē, tuku mai ho nima.” Pea naʻa ne tuku atu kiate ia ʻa hono nima; pea naʻa ne toʻo hake ia kiate ia ʻi he saliote.
16 UJehu wasesithi, “Woza sihambe ngiyekutshengisa ukuphitshekela kwami uThixo.” Ngakho wagada laye enqoleni yakhe yokulwa.
Pea naʻa ne pehē, Ke ta ō mo au, pea ke mamata ki heʻeku fai velenga koeʻuhi ko Sihova.” Pea pehē, naʻa nau puleʻi ia ke ne heka ki hono saliote.
17 UJehu uthe efika eSamariya, wabulala bonke ababesele khonale abendlu ka-Ahabi, wababhubhisa njengokutsho kwelizwi likaThixo ekhuluma ku-Elija.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko atu ki Samēlia, naʻa ne tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe kei toe kia ʻEhapi ʻi Samēlia, koeʻuhi ke ne fakaʻauha ia, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki kia ʻIlaisiā.
18 Ngakho uJehu wasebuthanisa abantu bonke wasesithi kubo, “U-Ahabi ubekhonza uBhali kancinyane; uJehu uzamkhonza kakhulu.
Pea naʻe tānaki ʻe Sehu ke fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē, mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Naʻe tauhi siʻi pe ʻa ʻEhapi kia Peali; ka ʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻae tauhi kiate ia ʻa Sehu.
19 Ngakho ngibizelani bonke abaphrofethi bakaBhali, zonke izikhonzi zakhe labaphristi bakhe. Linanzelele ukuthi kakho loyedwa ozasala, ngoba ngifuna ukwenza umhlatshelo omkhulu kuBhali. Ongayikubuya kasayikuphila.” UJehu wayebakhohlisa ngoba wayedinga ukubhubhisa abafundisi bakaBhali.
Ko ia foki, mou ui mai kiate au ʻae kau palōfita kotoa pē ʻo Peali, ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē, pea mo ʻene kautaulaʻeiki kotoa pē; ʻoua naʻa hala ʻi ha tokotaha: he ʻoku ai ʻa ʻeku feilaulau lahi ke u ʻatu kia Peali; ʻilonga pe ia ʻe toe, ʻe ʻikai siʻi te ne moʻui.” Ka naʻe fai eni ʻe Sehu ʻi he kākā, ko e meʻa ke ne fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu naʻe lotu kia Peali.
20 UJehu wasesithi, “Bizani umhlangano wokudumisa uBhali.” Basebewumemezela.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Fanongonongo ha kātoanga mamalu kia Peali.” Pea naʻa nau fanongonongo ia.
21 Wasethumela ilizwi kulolonke elako-Israyeli, beza bonke abafundisi bakaBhali; kakho loyedwa ongezanga. Bagcwala baminyana ethempelini likaBhali kusukela emsamo kusiya emnyango.
Pea naʻe fekau atu ʻe Sehu ki ʻIsileli kātoa: pea naʻe haʻu ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe lotu kia Peali, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ha tangata ʻe tokotaha naʻe taʻehaʻu. Pea naʻa nau omi ki he fale ʻo Peali; pea naʻe fonu ʻaupito ʻae fale ʻo Peali mei hono tā ʻe taha ʻo aʻu ki hono tā ʻe taha.
22 UJehu wasesithi kulowo owayegcina izigqoko zabakhonza uBhali, “Balethele izigqoko bonke abakhonza uBhali.” Ngakho wabalethela lezozigqoko.
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia naʻe tauhi ki he fale tukunga kofu, ʻOmi kituʻa ʻae ngaahi kofu maʻanautolu ʻoku lotu kia Peali. Pea naʻa ne fetuku mai ʻae ngaahi kofu kiate kinautolu.
23 UJehu loJehonadabi indodana kaRekhabi bangena ethempelini likaBhali. UJehu wathi kubakhonzi bakaBhali, “Linanzelele kungangeni loyedwa oyinceku kaThixo enkonzweni yenu, akube ngabakhonzi bakaBhali kuphela.”
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Sehu, mo Sonatapi ko e foha ʻo Lekapi, ki he loto fale ʻo Peali, ʻo na pehē ki he kakai naʻe lotu kia Peali, “Mou kumi, pea vakai ke ʻoua naʻa ʻi heni mo kimoutolu ha taha ʻi he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, ka ko e kau lotu pe ʻo Peali.”
24 Ngakho bangena banikela benza leminikelo yokutshiswa. UJehu wayebeke amadoda angamatshumi ayisificaminwembili wawaqonqosela wathi, “Loba ngubani ozayekela omunye walamadoda engiwabeke ezandleni zenu ephunyuka, ngizaphindisela ngempilo yakhe.”
Pea ʻi heʻenau hū ange ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau mo e ngaahi feilaulau tutu, naʻe fekauʻi ʻe Sehu ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko valungofulu ke tuʻu mei tuʻafale, mo ne pehē, “Kapau ʻe hao ha tokotaha ʻoe kau tangata kuo u tuku ki homou nima, ʻe totongiʻaki ʻae moʻui ʻaʻana, ʻe he moʻui ʻaʻana [kuo tuku ia ke hao].”
25 UJehu wathi eseqedile ukunikela umnikelo wokutshiswa, wathi kubalindi lezikhulu zebutho, “Ngenani liyebabulala; kungabikho loyedwa ozaphunyuka.” Ngakho babatshaya ngenkemba bababhubhisa. Abalindi lezikhulu balahlela phandle izidumbu basebengena ethempelini likaBhali elingaphakathi.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻosi leva ʻe ia ʻae ʻohake ʻoe feilaulau tutu, naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sehu ki he kau leʻo pea mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, “Mou hū ange ki loto fale, mo tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu; ke ʻoua naʻa hao mai ha tokotaha.” Pea naʻa nau taaʻi ʻaki kinautolu ʻae mata ʻoe heletā; pea naʻe laku kituʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau tangata leʻo pea mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo nau ʻalu ki he kolo ʻoe fale ʻo Peali.
26 Bakhipha ilitshe elikhonzwayo likaBhali balitshisa.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi kituʻa ʻae ngaahi tamapua mei he fale ʻo Peali, mo nau tutu ʻakinautolu.
27 Balidiliza lelolitshe likaBhali elikhonzwayo babhidliza lethempeli lakhe, balenza laba yindlu yokuyela ngaphandle kuze kube lalamuhla lokhu.
Pea naʻa nau maumauʻi hifo ʻae fakatātā ʻo Peali, mo nau maumauʻi hifo ʻae fale ʻo Peali, mo ngaohi ia ko e falevao ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
28 Ngalokho uJehu wadiliza ukholo lukaBhali ko-Israyeli.
Naʻe pehē ʻae fakaʻauha ʻe Sehu ʻa Peali mei ʻIsileli.
29 Kodwa, yena katshiyananga lezono zikaJerobhowamu indodana kaNebhathi, lezo ayebangele u-Israyeli ukuzenza, ukukhonza amathole egolide eBhetheli laseDani.
Ka neongo eni naʻe ʻikai tafoki ʻa Sehu mei he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati ʻaia naʻa ne fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi fakatātā ʻoe ʻuhikiʻi pulu koula ʻaia naʻe ʻi Peteli pea mo Tani.
30 UThixo wathi kuJehu, “Njengoba wenze kuhle ngokuphelelisa lokho okufaneleyo phambi kwami njalo wenze konke ebengikumisele abendlu ka-Ahabi, abendlu yakho bazabusa ko-Israyeli kuze kube yisizukulwane sesine.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sehu, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke fai lelei ʻi hoʻo fai ʻaia ʻoku totonu ʻi hoku ʻao, pea kuo ke fai ki he fale ʻo ʻEhapi ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē naʻaku finangalo ki ai, ʻe nofo ʻa hoʻo fānau ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo aʻu ki hono fā ʻoe toʻutangata.”
31 Kodwa uJehu kazange ananzelele ukugcina umthetho kaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke. Kazange atshiyane lezono ezazisenziwa nguJerobhowamu, lezo ayebangele u-Israyeli ukuba azenze.
Ka naʻe ʻikai tokanga ʻa Sehu ke ne ʻeveʻeva ʻi he fono ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻaki ʻa hono loto kātoa: he naʻe ʻikai liliu ia mei he ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami, ʻaia naʻe fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.
32 Ngalezonsuku uThixo waqalisa ukwehlisa inani labako-Israyeli. UHazayeli wanqoba ama-Israyeli kulolonke ilizwe lawo,
ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe kamata motuhi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Sihova ʻi hono potu kotoa pē: pea naʻe teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻe Hasaeli ʻi he ngaahi mata fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli;
33 empumalanga yeJodani kulolonke eleGiliyadi (kuthatha umango kaGadi, okaRubheni lokaManase), kusukela e-Aroweri ngaseSihotsheni se-Arinoni kusiyaphutsha eGiliyadi kungena eBhashani.
Mei Sioatani ʻo fai ki hahake, ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati, mo e kakai Kata, mo e kakai Lupeni, mo e kakai Manase, mei ʻAloeli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo ʻAlanoni, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki Kiliati pea mo Pesani.
34 Okunye kwezehlakalo lezenzo ngokubusa kukaJehu, konke akwenzayo, aphumelela kukho, akulotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi ako-Israyeli na?
Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sehu, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene mālohi lahi, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli?
35 UJehu wafa walala kuboyise emathuneni aseSamariya. UJehowahazi indodana yakhe yathatha ubukhosi yabusa.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Sehu mo ʻene ngaahi tamai: pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi Samēlia. Pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Sihoaasi ko hono foha.
36 UJehu isikhathi abusa ngaso u-Israyeli eseSamariya kwaba yiminyaka engamatshumi amabili lasificaminwembili.
Pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho naʻe pule ai ʻa Sehu ki ʻIsileli ʻi Samēlia, ko e taʻu ʻe uofulu ma valu.
