< 2 Kings 9 >
1 Wòlíì Eliṣa fi àṣẹ pe ọkùnrin kan láti ẹgbẹ́ àwọn wòlíì, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ki agbádá rẹ sínú ọ̀já àmùrè rẹ, gba ṣágo kékeré òróró yìí pẹ̀lú rẹ, kí o sì lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi.
Now the prophet Elisha called one of the sons of the prophets, and he said to him: “Gird your waist, and take this little bottle of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
2 Nígbà tí o bá dé bẹ̀, wá Jehu ọmọ Jehoṣafati, ọmọ Nimṣi kiri. Lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọ rẹ̀, mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀, kí o sì mú un wọ inú yàrá lọ́hùn ún lọ.
And when you arrive in that place, you will see Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. And upon entering, you shall raise him up from the midst of his brothers, and you shall lead him into an inner room.
3 Nígbà náà, mú ṣágo kékeré yìí, kí o sì da òróró náà lé e lórí, kí o sì wí pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli.”’ Nígbà náà, ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, kí o sì sáré, má ṣe jáfara!”
And taking the little bottle of oil, you shall pour it upon his head, and you shall say: ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’ And you shall open the door and flee. And you shall not remain in that place.”
4 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà, wòlíì náà lọ sí Ramoti Gileadi.
Therefore, the young man, a servant of the prophet, went away to Ramoth Gilead.
5 Nígbà tí ó dé, ó rí àwọn olórí ẹgbẹ́ ọmọ-ogun tí wọ́n jókòó papọ̀. “Èmi ní iṣẹ́ fún ọ, olórí,” Ó wí. “Sí ta ni nínú wa?” Jehu béèrè. Òun sì wí pé, “Sí ọ, balógun,” Ó dáhùn.
And he entered that place, and behold, the leaders of the army were sitting there, and he said, “I have a word for you, O prince.” And Jehu said, “For which one among us all?” And he said, “For you, O prince.”
6 Jehu dìde sókè, ó sì wọ inú ilé lọ. Nígbà náà, wòlíì náà da òróró náà sórí Jehu; ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí: ‘Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa Israẹli.
And he rose up and entered into the room. And he poured the oil on his head, and he said: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘I have anointed you as king over Israel, the people of the Lord.
7 Kí ìwọ kí ó pa ilé Ahabu ọ̀gá à rẹ̀ run, Èmi yóò sì gbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ gbogbo àwọn ìránṣẹ́ mi wòlíì àti gbogbo ẹ̀jẹ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa tí a ta sílẹ̀ látọwọ́ ọ Jesebeli.
And you shall strike down the house of Ahab, your lord. And I will avenge the blood of my servants, the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, from the hand of Jezebel.
8 Gbogbo ilé Ahabu yóò ṣègbé. Èmi yóò gé e kúrò láti orí Ahabu gbogbo ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó gbẹ̀yìn ni Israẹli, ẹrú tàbí òmìnira.
And I will destroy the entire house of Ahab. And I will cause to pass away from Ahab, whatever urinates against a wall, and whatever is lame, and whatever is least in Israel.
9 Èmi yóò ṣe ilé Ahabu gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilé Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati àti ilé Baaṣa ọmọ Ahijah.
And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha, the son of Ahijah.
10 Fún Jesebeli, ajá ni yóò jẹ ẹ́ ní oko Jesreeli, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò sin òkú rẹ̀.’” Nígbà náà ó ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn, ó sì sálọ.
Also, the dogs will consume Jezebel, in the field of Jezreel. Neither will there be anyone who may bury her.’” And then he opened the door, and he fled.
11 Nígbà tí Jehu jáde lọ bá àwọn ọgbà ìjòyè e rẹ̀, ọ̀kan nínú wọn sì bi í pé, “Ṣé gbogbo nǹkan dára?” Kí ni ó dé tí aṣiwèrè fi tọ̀ ọ́ wá, “Ìwọ mọ ọkùnrin náà àti irú nǹkan tí ó ń sọ,” Jehu fèsì.
Then Jehu went out to the servants of his lord. And they said to him: “Is everything well? Why has this insane man come to you?” And he said to them, “You know the man, and what he said.”
12 “Ìyẹn kì í ṣe òótọ́!” Wọ́n wí. “Sọ fún wa.” Jehu wí, “Èyí ni ohun tí ó sọ fún mi: ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Èmi fi àmì òróró yàn ọ́ ní ọba lórí Israẹli.”’”
But they responded, “That is false; instead, you should tell us.” And he said to them, “He said to me these certain things, and he said, ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’”
13 Wọ́n ṣe gírí, wọ́n sì mú agbádá a wọn, wọ́n sì tàn wọ́n sí abẹ́ rẹ̀ ní orí àtẹ̀gùn. Nígbà náà, wọ́n fọn ìpè, wọ́n sì kígbe, “Jehu jẹ ọba!”
And so they hurried away. And each one, taking his cloak, placed it under his feet, in the manner of a seat for judgment. And they sounded the trumpet, and they said: “Jehu reigns!”
14 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jehu ọmọ Jehoṣafati, ọmọ Nimṣi, dìtẹ̀ sí Joramu. (Nísinsin yìí Joramu àti gbogbo Israẹli ti ń dáàbò bo Ramoti Gileadi nítorí Hasaeli ọba Aramu.
Then Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Gilead, he and all of Israel, against Hazael, the king of Syria.
15 ṣùgbọ́n ọba Joramu ti padà sí Jesreeli láti lọ sàn nínú ọgbẹ́ tí àwọn ará Aramu ti dá sí i lára nínú ogun pẹ̀lú ọba Hasaeli ti Aramu.) Jehu wí pé, “Tí èyí bá jẹ́ ọ̀nà tí ò ń rò, má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnìkankan kí ó yọ jáde nínú ìlú ńlá láti lọ sọ ìròyìn náà ní Jesreeli.”
And he had returned, so that he might be cured at Jezreel, because of his wounds. For the Syrians had struck him, while he was fighting against Hazael, the king of Syria. And Jehu said, “If it pleases you, let no one depart, fleeing from the city; otherwise he may go and give a report in Jezreel.”
16 Nígbà náà Jehu wọ inú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀, ó sì gùn ún lọ sí Jesreeli, nítorí Joramu ń sinmi níbẹ̀ àti Ahasiah ọba Juda sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti wá wò Joramu.
And he climbed up and set out for Jezreel, because Joram was sick there, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, had gone down to visit Joram.
17 Nígbà tí olùṣọ́ kan tí ó dúró ní ilé ìṣọ́ ní Jesreeli, rí ọ̀wọ́ ogun Jehu tí wọ́n ń súnmọ́ tòsí, ó pè jáde, “Mo rí àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun tí ó ń bọ̀.” “Mú ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin kan,” Joramu pa á láṣẹ. “Rán an lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn kí o sì béèrè pé, ‘Ṣé ẹ̀yin wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?’”
And so the watchman, who was standing upon the tower of Jezreel, saw the crowd of Jehu arriving, and he said, “I see a crowd.” And Joram said: “Take a chariot, and send to meet them. And those who go should say, ‘Is everything well?’”
18 Ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin náà, lọ láti lọ bá Jehu ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí ọba wí: ‘Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?’” “Kí ni ìwọ ní ṣe pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?” Jehu sì dáhùn. “Bọ́ sí ẹ̀yìn mi.” Olùṣọ́ náà sì wí fún un pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ náà ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n kò tún padà wá mọ́.”
Therefore, he who had climbed into the chariot went away to meet him, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is everything peaceful?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.” Also the watchman gave a report, saying, “The messenger went to them, but he did not return.”
19 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ọba rán ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin kejì. Nígbà náà ó wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ó wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí ọba sọ: “Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà?” Jehu dáhùn, “Dúró sí ẹ̀yìn mi.”
And then he sent a second chariot of horses. And he went to them, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is there peace?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.”
20 Olùṣọ́ náà sì fi sùn. “Ó ti dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n kò tún padà wá mọ́ pẹ̀lú. Wíwá rẹ̀ sì dàbí ti Jehu ọmọ Nimṣi, ó ń wa kẹ̀kẹ́ bí ti aṣiwèrè.”
Then the watchman gave a report, saying: “He went all the way to them, but he did not return. But their advance is like the advance of Jehu, the son of Nimshi. For he advances precipitously.”
21 “Fi ìwọ̀ kọ́ kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun mi.” Joramu pa á láṣẹ. Àti nígbà tí a fi kọ́, Joramu ọba Israẹli àti Ahasiah ọba Juda, gun kẹ̀kẹ́ lọ, olúkúlùkù nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun tirẹ̀, láti lọ bá Jehu. Wọ́n bá a pàdé ní ibi oko tí ó ti jẹ́ ti Naboti ará Jesreeli.
And Joram said, “Yoke the chariot.” And they yoked his chariot. And Joram, the king of Israel, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, departed, each in his chariot. And they went out to meet Jehu. And they met him in the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite.
22 Nígbà tí Joramu rí Jehu, ó béèrè pé, “Ṣé ìwọ wá pẹ̀lú àlàáfíà, Jehu?” “Báwo ni àlàáfíà yóò ṣe wà,” Jehu dáhùn, “Ní ìwọ̀n ìgbà tí gbogbo ìbọ̀rìṣà àti iṣẹ́ àjẹ́ ti màmá rẹ Jesebeli di púpọ̀?”
And when Joram had seen Jehu, he said, “Is there peace, Jehu?” And he responded: “What is peace? For still the fornications of your mother, Jezebel, and her many poisons, are thriving.”
23 Joramu yí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ padà, ó sì sálọ, ó sì ń pe Ahasiah, “Ọ̀tẹ̀ dé, Ahasiah!”
Then Joram turned his hand, and, fleeing, he said to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
24 Nígbà náà, Jehu fa ọrun rẹ̀, ó sì yin Joramu láàrín èjìká méjèèjì. Ọfà náà sì wọ inú ọkàn rẹ̀, ó sì ṣubú lulẹ̀ láti orí kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀.
But Jehu bent his bow with his hand, and he struck Joram between the shoulders. And the arrow went through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.
25 Jehu sọ fún Bidikari, balógun kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ pé, “Gbé e sókè kí ó sì jù ú sí orí oko tí ó jẹ́ ti Naboti ará Jesreeli. Rántí bí èmi àti ìwọ ti ń gun kẹ̀kẹ́ papọ̀ lẹ́yìn Ahabu baba à rẹ nígbà tí Olúwa sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa rẹ̀,
And Jehu said to Bidkar, his commander: “Take and cast him into the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite. For I remember, when you and I, sitting in a chariot, were following Ahab, this man’s father, that the Lord lifted this burden upon him, saying:
26 ‘Ní àná, mo rí ẹ̀jẹ̀ Naboti pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin, ni Olúwa wí.’ Ǹjẹ́ nítorí náà, ẹ gbé e sókè, kí o sì jù ú sí orí ilẹ̀ oko náà ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.”
‘Certainly, I will repay you in this field, says the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his sons, which I saw yesterday, says the Lord.’ Therefore, take him now, and cast him into the field, in accord with the word of the Lord.”
27 Nígbà tí Ahasiah ọba, Juda rí ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀, ó sálọ sójú ọ̀nà sí Beti-Haggani. Jehu sì lépa rẹ̀, ó ń kígbe, “Pa á pẹ̀lú!” Wọ́n ṣá a ní ọgbẹ́ nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ ní ọ̀nà lọ sí Guri lẹ́bàá a Ibleamu, ṣùgbọ́n ó sálọ sí Megido, ó sì kú síbẹ̀.
But Ahaziah, the king of Judah, seeing this, fled along the way of the garden house. And Jehu pursued him, and he said, “Strike this one also in his chariot.” And they struck him on the ascent to Gur, which is beside Ibleam. But he fled into Megiddo, and he died there.
28 Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sì gbé e pẹ̀lú kẹ̀kẹ́ lọ sí Jerusalẹmu, ó sì sin ín pẹ̀lú, baba a rẹ̀ nínú ibojì rẹ̀ ní ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi.
And his servants placed him upon his chariot, and they took him to Jerusalem. And they buried him in the sepulcher with his fathers, in the city of David.
29 (Ní ọdún kọkànlá ti Joramu ọmọ Ahabu, Ahasiah ti di ọba Juda.)
In the eleventh year of Joram, the son of Ahab, Ahaziah reigned over Judah.
30 Nígbà náà Jehu lọ sí Jesreeli. Nígbà tí Jesebeli gbọ́ nípa rẹ̀, ó kun ojú u rẹ̀, ó to irun rẹ̀, ó sì wò jáde láti ojú fèrèsé.
And Jehu went into Jezreel. But Jezebel, hearing of his arrival, painted her eyes with cosmetics, and adorned her head. And she watched through a window,
31 Bí Jehu ti wọ ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn, ó béèrè, “Ṣé ìwọ wá ní àlàáfíà, Simri, ìwọ olùpa ọ̀gá à rẹ?”
as Jehu was entering through the gate. And she said, “Is it possible for there to be peace for Zimri, who killed his lord?”
32 Ó gbójú sókè láti wo fèrèsé, ó sì pè jáde, “Ta ni ó wà ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ mi? Ta ni?” Ìwẹ̀fà méjì tàbí mẹ́ta bojú wò ó nílẹ̀.
And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and he said, “Who is this woman?” And two or three eunuchs bowed down before him.
33 Jehu sọ wí pé, “Gbé e jù sílẹ̀!” Wọ́n sì jù ú sílẹ̀. Díẹ̀ nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ rẹ̀ sì fọ́n sí ara ògiri àti àwọn ẹṣin bí wọ́n ti tẹ̀ ẹ́ mọ́lẹ̀ lábẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ wọn.
And he said to them, “Throw her down with force.” And they threw her forcefully, and the wall was splattered with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trampled her.
34 Jehu wọ inú ilé lọ, ó jẹ, ó sì mu. “Tọ́jú obìnrin yẹn tí a fi bú,” Ó wí, “Kí o sì sin ín, nítorí ọmọbìnrin ọba ni ó jẹ́.”
And when he had entered, so that he might eat and drink, he said: “Go, and see to that cursed woman, and bury her. For she is the daughter of a king.”
35 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n jáde lọ láti lọ sin ín, wọn kò rí nǹkan kan àyàfi agbárí i rẹ̀, ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ méjèèjì àti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ méjèèjì.
But when they had gone, so that they might bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the ends of her hands.
36 Wọ́n padà lọ sọ fún Jehu, ẹni tí ó wí pé, “Èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó sọ nípasẹ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Elijah ará Tiṣibi wí pé, ‘Ní orí oko Jesreeli ni àwọn ajá yóò ti jẹ ẹran-ara Jesebeli.
And returning, they reported to him. And Jehu said: “It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke through his servant, Elijah the Tishbite, saying: ‘In the field of Jezreel, the dogs will consume the flesh of Jezebel.
37 Òkú Jesebeli yóò dàbí ohun ẹ̀gbin ní orí oko Jesreeli, dé bi pé, ẹnikẹ́ni kì yóò lè sọ pé, “Jesebeli ni èyí.”’”
And the flesh of Jezebel will be like dung upon the face of the earth, in the field of Jezreel, so that those who pass by may say: Is this that same Jezebel?’”
