2 Wafalme 10
1 Basi Ahabu alikuwa na watoto sabini katika Samaria. Yehu akaandika barua na kuzituma kwenda Samaria, kwa watawala wa Yezreeli, pamoja na wazee na walinzi wa wana wa Ahabu akisema,
καὶ τῷ Αχααβ ἑβδομήκοντα υἱοὶ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ ἔγραψεν Ιου βιβλίον καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας Σαμαρείας καὶ πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους καὶ πρὸς τοὺς τιθηνοὺς υἱῶν Αχααβ λέγων
2 “Wana wa bwana wako wako pamoja na wewe, na wewe pia una magari ya farasi na farasi na kuimarisha mji dhidi ya maadui na silaha. Hivyo basi, haraka iwezekanavyo barua hii ikufikiapo,
καὶ νῦν ὡς ἐὰν ἔλθῃ τὸ βιβλίον τοῦτο πρὸς ὑμᾶς μεθ’ ὑμῶν οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ κυρίου ὑμῶν καὶ μεθ’ ὑμῶν τὸ ἅρμα καὶ οἱ ἵπποι καὶ πόλεις ὀχυραὶ καὶ τὰ ὅπλα
3 mchagueni aliye bora na anayestahili miongoni mwa mtoto wa bwana wenu na kumuweka kwenye kiti cha kifalme cha baba yake, na kupigania ufalme wa bwana wenu.”
καὶ ὄψεσθε τὸν ἀγαθὸν καὶ τὸν εὐθῆ ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς τοῦ κυρίου ὑμῶν καὶ καταστήσετε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸν θρόνον τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ πολεμεῖτε ὑπὲρ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ κυρίου ὑμῶν
4 Lakini waliogopa na kusema miongoni mwao, “Tazama, wafalme wawili hawatasimama mbele ya Yehu. Hivyo tutasimamaje?”
καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν σφόδρα καὶ εἶπον ἰδοὺ οἱ δύο βασιλεῖς οὐκ ἔστησαν κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ καὶ πῶς στησόμεθα ἡμεῖς
5 Kisha yule mtu ambaye alikuwa kiongozi kwenye nyumba ya mfalme, na wale waliowalea watoto, wakatuma ujumbe kwa Yehu, kusema, “Sisi ni watumishi wako. Tutafanya chochote utakacho tuamuru. Hatutamfanya mtu yeyote kuwa mfalme. Fanya lile lililojema machoni pako.”
καὶ ἀπέστειλαν οἱ ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου καὶ οἱ ἐπὶ τῆς πόλεως καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι καὶ οἱ τιθηνοὶ πρὸς Ιου λέγοντες παῖδές σου ἡμεῖς καὶ ὅσα ἐὰν εἴπῃς πρὸς ἡμᾶς ποιήσομεν οὐ βασιλεύσομεν ἄνδρα τὸ ἀγαθὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς σου ποιήσομεν
6 Kisha Yehu akaandika barua mara ya pili, akisema, “Kama mko upande wangu, na kama mtasikiliza sauti yangu, mtachukua vichwa vya watu wa wana wa mabwana wenu, na mje kwangu Yezreeli kesho mda kama huu.” Ndipo wana wa wafalme, sabini kwa hesabu, waliokuwa watu muhimu huko mjini, ambao walikuwa wakiwaleta.
καὶ ἔγραψεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς βιβλίον δεύτερον λέγων εἰ ἐμοὶ ὑμεῖς καὶ τῆς φωνῆς μου ὑμεῖς εἰσακούετε λάβετε τὴν κεφαλὴν ἀνδρῶν τῶν υἱῶν τοῦ κυρίου ὑμῶν καὶ ἐνέγκατε πρός με ὡς ἡ ὥρα αὔριον εἰς Ιεζραελ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τοῦ βασιλέως ἦσαν ἑβδομήκοντα ἄνδρες οὗτοι ἁδροὶ τῆς πόλεως ἐξέτρεφον αὐτούς
7 Hivyo barua ilipokuja kwao, waliwachukua wana wa wafalme na kisha kuwaua, watu sabini, wakaweka vichwa vyao kwenye vikapu, na kuivituma kwa Yehu katika Yezreeli.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἦλθεν τὸ βιβλίον πρὸς αὐτούς καὶ ἔλαβον τοὺς υἱοὺς τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἔσφαξαν αὐτούς ἑβδομήκοντα ἄνδρας καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν ἐν καρτάλλοις καὶ ἀπέστειλαν αὐτὰς πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς Ιεζραελ
8 Mjumbe mmoja akaja kwa Yehu, akisema, “Wamevileta vile vichwa vya watoto wa wafalme.” Hivyo akasema, viwekeni kwenye mafungu mawili kwenye lango hadi asubuhi.”
καὶ ἦλθεν ὁ ἄγγελος καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν λέγων ἤνεγκαν τὰς κεφαλὰς τῶν υἱῶν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ εἶπεν θέτε αὐτὰς βουνοὺς δύο παρὰ τὴν θύραν τῆς πύλης εἰς πρωί
9 Asubuhi Yehu akatoka nje na kusimama, na kusema kwa watu wote, “Ninyi hamna hatia. Tazameni, nimefanya fitina dhidi ya bwana wangu na kumuua, lakini ni nani aliyewaua hawa wote?
καὶ ἐγένετο πρωὶ καὶ ἐξῆλθεν καὶ ἔστη ἐν τῷ πυλῶνι τῆς πόλεως καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς πάντα τὸν λαόν δίκαιοι ὑμεῖς ἰδοὺ ἐγώ εἰμι συνεστράφην ἐπὶ τὸν κύριόν μου καὶ ἀπέκτεινα αὐτόν καὶ τίς ἐπάταξεν πάντας τούτους
10 Sasa hakika tafakarini kwamba hakuna sehemu ya neno la Yahwe, lile alilonena Yahwe kuhusu familia ya Ahabu, itaanguka kwenye aridhini, kwa kuwa Yahwe amefanya kile alichokiongea kupitia mtumishi wake Eliya.”
ἴδετε αφφω ὅτι οὐ πεσεῖται ἀπὸ τοῦ ῥήματος κυρίου εἰς τὴν γῆν οὗ ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Αχααβ καὶ κύριος ἐποίησεν ὅσα ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ δούλου αὐτοῦ Ηλιου
11 Basi Yehu akawaua wote waliokuwa wamebakia wa familia ya Ahabu katika Yezreeli, na watu wake muhimu wote, marafiki zake wa karibu, na makuhani wake, hakuna hata mmoja wao alisalia.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν Ιου πάντας τοὺς καταλειφθέντας ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Αχααβ ἐν Ιεζραελ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἁδροὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς γνωστοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς αὐτοῦ ὥστε μὴ καταλιπεῖν αὐτοῦ κατάλειμμα
12 Kisha Yehu akainuka na kuondoka; akaenda Samaria. Kadiri alivyokuwa akikaribia Bethi Ekedi ya wachungaji,
καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Σαμάρειαν αὐτὸς ἐν Βαιθακαδ τῶν ποιμένων ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ
13 akamlaki na ndugu wa Ahazia mfalme wa Yuda. Yehu akawaambia, “Ninyi ni akina nani?” Wakajibu, “Sisi ni ndugu zake na Ahazia, na tunashuka chini kuwasalimia watoto wa mfalme na watoto wa Malkia Yezebeli.”
καὶ Ιου εὗρεν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς Οχοζιου βασιλέως Ιουδα καὶ εἶπεν τίνες ὑμεῖς καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἀδελφοὶ Οχοζιου ἡμεῖς καὶ κατέβημεν εἰς εἰρήνην τῶν υἱῶν τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τῶν υἱῶν τῆς δυναστευούσης
14 Yehu akawaambia watu wake mwenyewe, “Wachukue wakiwa hai.” Hivyo wakawachukua wakiwa hai na kuwaua kwenye kisima cha Bethi Ekedi, watu wote arobaini na mbili. Hakumwacha hata mmoja wao akiwa hai.
καὶ εἶπεν συλλάβετε αὐτοὺς ζῶντας καὶ συνέλαβον αὐτοὺς ζῶντας καὶ ἔσφαξαν αὐτοὺς εἰς Βαιθακαδ τεσσαράκοντα καὶ δύο ἄνδρας οὐ κατέλιπεν ἄνδρα ἐξ αὐτῶν
15 Baada ya Yehu kuondoka huko, akakutana na Yehonadabu mwana wa Rekabu anakuja kukutana naye. Yehu akamsalimia na kisha akamwambia, “Je moyo wako uko na mimi, kama moyo wangu ulivyo pamoja na wako?” Yehonadabu akajibu, Ndio.” Yehu akasema, “kama ni ndio, nipatie mkono wako.” Kisha Yehonadabu akampatia mkono wake, na Yehu akampandisha Yehonadabu juu kwenye magari ya farasi pamoja naye.
καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐκεῖθεν καὶ εὗρεν τὸν Ιωναδαβ υἱὸν Ρηχαβ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτόν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτὸν Ιου εἰ ἔστιν καρδία σου μετὰ καρδίας μου εὐθεῖα καθὼς ἡ καρδία μου μετὰ τῆς καρδίας σου καὶ εἶπεν Ιωναδαβ ἔστιν καὶ εἶπεν Ιου καὶ εἰ ἔστιν δὸς τὴν χεῖρά σου καὶ ἔδωκεν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνεβίβασεν αὐτὸν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὸ ἅρμα
16 Yehu akasema, “Fuatana pamoja nami na uone wivu wangu kwa Yahwe.” Hivyo alikuwa na Yehonadabu akiendesha gari la farasi.
καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν δεῦρο μετ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ ἰδὲ ἐν τῷ ζηλῶσαί με τῷ κυρίῳ Σαβαωθ καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ἅρματι αὐτοῦ
17 Wakati alipokuja Samaria, Yehu akawaua wote waliobakia kutoka uzao wa Ahabu katika Samaria, hata akawaangamiza ukoo wa kifalme wa Ahabu, kama walivyokuwa wameambiwa kabla ya neno la Yahwe, ambalo aliloambiwa Eliya.
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Σαμάρειαν καὶ ἐπάταξεν πάντας τοὺς καταλειφθέντας τοῦ Αχααβ ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἕως τοῦ ἀφανίσαι αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα κυρίου ὃ ἐλάλησεν πρὸς Ηλιου
18 Kisha Yehu akawakusanya watu wote akwaambia, “Ahabu alimtumikia Baali kidogo, lakini Yehu atamtumikia sana.
καὶ συνήθροισεν Ιου πάντα τὸν λαὸν καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς Αχααβ ἐδούλευσεν τῷ Βααλ ὀλίγα καί γε Ιου δουλεύσει αὐτῷ πολλά
19 Basi niitieni manabii wote wa Baali, wote wamwabuduo, na makuhani wake wote. Asikosekane mtu hata mmoja, kwa kuwa nina dhabihu kubwa nataka kutoa kwa Baali. Yeyote atakayeshindwa kuja hataishi.” Lakini Yehu alifanya haya kwa udanganyifu, kwa dhamira ya kuwaua wanaomwabudu Baali.
καὶ νῦν πάντες οἱ προφῆται τοῦ Βααλ πάντας τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς αὐτοῦ καλέσατε πρός με ἀνὴρ μὴ ἐπισκεπήτω ὅτι θυσία μεγάλη μοι τῷ Βααλ πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν ἐπισκεπῇ οὐ ζήσεται καὶ Ιου ἐποίησεν ἐν πτερνισμῷ ἵνα ἀπολέσῃ τοὺς δούλους τοῦ Βααλ
20 Yehu akasema, “Tengeni mda tuwe na mkutano kwa ajili ya Baali.” Hivyo wakalitangaza.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιου ἁγιάσατε ἱερείαν τῷ Βααλ καὶ ἐκήρυξαν
21 Kisha Yehu akatuma Israeli yote na wamwabuduo Baali waje, hivyo basi hakuna mtu hata mmoja ambaye aliacha kuja. Walikuja kwenye hekalu la Baali, na ilijaa kutoka mwanzo hadi mwisho.
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ιου ἐν παντὶ Ισραηλ λέγων καὶ νῦν πάντες οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ Βααλ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντες οἱ προφῆται αὐτοῦ μηδεὶς ἀπολειπέσθω ὅτι θυσίαν μεγάλην ποιῶ ὃς ἂν ἀπολειφθῇ οὐ ζήσεται καὶ ἦλθον πάντες οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ Βααλ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἱερεῖς αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντες οἱ προφῆται αὐτοῦ οὐ κατελείφθη ἀνήρ ὃς οὐ παρεγένετο καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Βααλ καὶ ἐπλήσθη ὁ οἶκος τοῦ Βααλ στόμα εἰς στόμα
22 Yehu akamwambia yule mtu aliyekuwa anatunza kabati la nguo za makuhani, “Uwatolee mavazi wote wamwabuduo Baali.” Basi yule mtu akawatolea nguo.
καὶ εἶπεν Ιου τῷ ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου μεσθααλ ἐξάγαγε ἐνδύματα πᾶσι τοῖς δούλοις τοῦ Βααλ καὶ ἐξήνεγκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ στολιστής
23 Basi Yehu akaingia pamoja na Yohonadabu mwana wa Rekabu kwenye nyumba ya Baali, na kisha akawaambia wanaomwabudu Baali, “Tafuteni na muhahakishe kwamba hakuna mtu hapa pamoja na ninyi kutoka watumishi wa Yahwe, lakini wamwabuduo Baali peke yao.”
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ιου καὶ Ιωναδαβ υἱὸς Ρηχαβ εἰς οἶκον τοῦ Βααλ καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς δούλοις τοῦ Βααλ ἐρευνήσατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔστιν μεθ’ ὑμῶν τῶν δούλων κυρίου ὅτι ἀλλ’ ἢ οἱ δοῦλοι τοῦ Βααλ μονώτατοι
24 Kisha wakaenda kutoa dhabihu na sadaka ya kutekeza. Basi Yehu alichagua watu themanini ambao walikuwa wamesimama nje, na aliwaambia, Kama mtu yeyote miongoni mwa hawa watu ambao nimewaleta kwenye mikono yenu atoroke, yeyote atakayemwacha huyo mtu atoroke, maisha yake yatachukuliwa kwa ajili ya yule aliyeokoka.”
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὰ θύματα καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ Ιου ἔταξεν ἑαυτῷ ἔξω ὀγδοήκοντα ἄνδρας καὶ εἶπεν ἀνήρ ὃς ἐὰν διασωθῇ ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνδρῶν ὧν ἐγὼ ἀνάγω ἐπὶ χεῖρας ὑμῶν ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἀντὶ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ
25 Hivyo kisha baada ya mda mfupi Yehu alipomaliza kutoa sadaka ya kutekezwa, akamwambia mlinzi na manahodha, “Ingieni na muwaue. Msimwache mtu yeyote atoke.” Basi waliwaua kwa makali ya upanga, na mlinzi na manahodha wakawatupa nje na kwenda kwenye chumba cha ndani cha nyumba ya Baali.
καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς συνετέλεσεν ποιῶν τὴν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ εἶπεν Ιου τοῖς παρατρέχουσιν καὶ τοῖς τριστάταις εἰσελθόντες πατάξατε αὐτούς ἀνὴρ μὴ ἐξελθάτω ἐξ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτοὺς ἐν στόματι ῥομφαίας καὶ ἔρριψαν οἱ παρατρέχοντες καὶ οἱ τριστάται καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ἕως πόλεως οἴκου τοῦ Βααλ
26 Wakazitoa nguzo za mawe ambazo zilikuwa kwenye nyumba ya Baali, na kisha kuzichoma.
καὶ ἐξήνεγκαν τὴν στήλην τοῦ Βααλ καὶ ἐνέπρησαν αὐτήν
27 Kisha wakazivunja zile nguzo za Baali, na kuiharibu nyumba ya Baali na kuifanya choo, ambacho kipo hadi leo.
καὶ κατέσπασαν τὰς στήλας τοῦ Βααλ καὶ καθεῖλον τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Βααλ καὶ ἔταξαν αὐτὸν εἰς λυτρῶνας ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης
28 Hivi ndivyo ambavyo Yehu alivyomharibu muabudu Baali kutoka Israeli.
καὶ ἠφάνισεν Ιου τὸν Βααλ ἐξ Ισραηλ
29 Lakini Yehu hakuacha dhambi za Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati, ambayo ilfanya Israeli kutenda dhambi-ambayo ni, kumwabudu ndama wa dhahabu katika Betheli na Dani.
πλὴν ἁμαρτιῶν Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ ὃς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ οὐκ ἀπέστη Ιου ἀπὸ ὄπισθεν αὐτῶν αἱ δαμάλεις αἱ χρυσαῖ ἐν Βαιθηλ καὶ ἐν Δαν
30 Hivyo Yahwe akamwambia Yehu, “Kwa kuwa umefanya vema kwa kufanya yaliyo sahihi kwenye macho yangu, na kumailiza kwenye nyumba ya Ahabu kulingana na yote yaliyokuwa kwenye moyo wangu, uzao wako utakaa kwenye kiti cha Israeli hadi kizazi cha nne.”
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Ιου ἀνθ’ ὧν ὅσα ἠγάθυνας ποιῆσαι τὸ εὐθὲς ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς μου καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ μου ἐποίησας τῷ οἴκῳ Αχααβ υἱοὶ τέταρτοι καθήσονταί σοι ἐπὶ θρόνου Ισραηλ
31 Lakini Yehu hakujali kutembea kwenye sheria ya Yahwe, Mungu wa Israeli, kwa moyo wake wote. Hakugeuka kutoka kwenye dhambi za Yeroboamu, ambayo iliwafanya Israeli kutende dhambi.
καὶ Ιου οὐκ ἐφύλαξεν πορεύεσθαι ἐν νόμῳ κυρίου θεοῦ Ισραηλ ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀπέστη ἐπάνωθεν ἁμαρτιῶν Ιεροβοαμ υἱοῦ Ναβατ ὃς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ
32 Siku zile Yahwe akaanza kupunguza mikoa ya Israeli, na Hazaeli kuwashinda Waisraeli mipakani mwa Israeli,
ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἤρξατο κύριος συγκόπτειν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς Αζαηλ ἐν παντὶ ὁρίῳ Ισραηλ
33 kutoka Yordani upande wa mashariki, nchi yote ya Gileadi, Wagadi, na Wareubeni, na Wamanase, kutoka Aroeri, alipo karibu na bonde la Arnoni, kupita Geleadi hadi Bashani.
ἀπὸ τοῦ Ιορδάνου κατ’ ἀνατολὰς ἡλίου πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Γαλααδ τοῦ Γαδδι καὶ τοῦ Ρουβην καὶ τοῦ Μανασση ἀπὸ Αροηρ ἥ ἐστιν ἐπὶ τοῦ χείλους χειμάρρου Αρνων καὶ τὴν Γαλααδ καὶ τὴν Βασαν
34 Kama kwa mambo mengine yamhusuyo Yehu, na yote aliyoyafanya, na ushujaa wake, je hayakuandikwa kwenye kitabu cha matukio ya wafalme wa Israeli?
καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ιου καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐποίησεν καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δυναστεία αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς συνάψεις ἃς συνῆψεν οὐχὶ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ισραηλ
35 Yehu akalala na wazee wake, na walimzika katika Samaria. Kisha Yehoahazi mwanaye akawa mfalme katika sehemu yake.
καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ιου μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ιωαχας υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ’ αὐτοῦ
36 Mda ambao Yehu alitawala juu ya Israeli katika Samaria ulikuwa miaka ishini na nane.
καὶ αἱ ἡμέραι ἃς ἐβασίλευσεν Ιου ἐπὶ Ισραηλ εἴκοσι ὀκτὼ ἔτη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ
