2 Ruodhi 9
1 Elisha janabi noluongo achiel kuom jonabi mowachone niya, “Ngʼwan lawi e nungoni, kendo ikaw morni idhigo e piny Ramoth Gilead.
Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, “Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
2 Ka ichopo kanyo, to imany Jehu wuod Jehoshafat, ma wuod Nimshi. Dhi ire igole oko e kind ji kendo itere nyaka ei ot kar kende.
When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in and make him rise up from amongst his brothers, and take him to an inner room.
3 Bangʼ mano, kaw puga motingʼo mo iol e wiye kiwacho niya, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Asewali bedo ruodh Israel.’ Bangʼ timo ma to iyaw dhoot; kendo ring piyo, kik ideki!”
Then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, ‘The LORD says, “I have anointed you king over Israel.”’ Then open the door, flee, and don’t wait.”
4 Eka wuowi matin ma janabi nodhi Ramoth Gilead.
So the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth Gilead.
5 Kane ochopo noyudo ka jotend lweny obet kanyakla. Nowachone jatend lweny niya, “An-gi wach moro madwaro wachoni.” Jehu nopenje niya, “En ngʼa kuomwa ka midwaro losogo?” Nodwoke niya, “En mana in, jatend lweny.”
When he came, behold, the captains of the army were sitting. Then he said, “I have a message for you, captain.” Jehu said, “To which one of us?” He said, “To you, O captain.”
6 Jehu nochungʼ malo modhi kode ei ot. Bangʼ mano janabino noolo mo ewi Jehu kowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho: ‘Asewali mondo ibed ruodh Israel ma gin jo-Jehova Nyasaye.
He arose, and went into the house. Then he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have anointed you king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.
7 Nyaka itiek od Ahab ma ruodhi, kendo abiro chulo kuor nikech remb jotichna ma jonabi kendo nikech remb jotich Jehova Nyasaye mane ochwer gi Jezebel.
You must strike your master Ahab’s house, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.
8 Abiro tieko od Ahab duto. Abiro tieko chwo manie od Ahab e piny Israel bedni gin wasumbini kata joma ni thuolo.
For the whole house of Ahab will perish. I will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, both him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.
9 Abiro keto od Ahab chal gi od Jeroboam wuod Nebat kendo ochal kaka od Baasha wuod Ahija.
I will make Ahab’s house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.
10 To ne Jezebel guogi ema nocham ringre e puodho manie paw Jezreel kendo onge ngʼama noyike.’” Bangʼ mano noyawo dhoot moringo odhi.
The dogs will eat Jezebel on the plot of ground of Jezreel, and there shall be no one to bury her.’” Then he opened the door and fled.
11 Kane Jehu odok ir jotend lweny wetene achiel kuomgi nopenje niya, “Bende weche duto beyo? To angʼo mane janekono obirone iri?” Jehu nodwokogi niya, “Ungʼeyo ngʼatno, to gi gik ma onyalo wacho.”
When Jehu came out to the servants of his lord and one said to him, “Is all well? Why did this madman come to you?” He said to them, “You know the man and how he talks.”
12 Negikwere niya, “Mano en miriambo, wachnwa adier.” Jehu nodwokogi niya, “Ma e gima nonyisa: ‘Ni Jehova Nyasaye owacho: Asewiri mondo ibed ruodh Israel.’”
They said, “That is a lie. Tell us now.” He said, “He said to me, ‘The LORD says, I have anointed you king over Israel.’”
13 Negigolo lepgi piyo piyo ma gipedho ewi raidhi mondo Jehu owuothie. Eka negigoyo turumbete ka gigoyo koko niya, “Jehu en ruoth!”
Then they hurried, and each man took his cloak, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the shofar, saying, “Jehu is king.”
14 Eka Jehu wuod Jehoshafat ma wuod Nimshi nochano lingʼ-lingʼ mondo omonj Joram. (Koro Joram gi jo-Israel duto nosebedo kakedo mondo gisir Ramoth Gilead kuom monj moa kuom Hazael ruodh Aram,
So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram was defending Ramoth Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;
15 to ruoth Joram noduogo Jezreel mondo ochangi kuom adhonde mane oyudo kuom lweny mane ni e kinde gi Hazael ruodh jo-Aram). Jehu mowachone niya, “Ka ma e kaka uparo, to kik iyie ngʼato angʼata wuogi e dala maduongʼ ka mondo odhi ohul wachni e piny Jezreel.”
but King Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) Jehu said, “If this is your thinking, then let no one escape and go out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.”
16 Eka nodhi moidho gache mar lweny moringo odhi Jezreel nikech Joram ne ni kuno kendo Ahazia ruodh Juda bende noyudo ni kuno kaka wendone.
So Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jezreel, for Joram lay there. Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
17 Ka jangʼicho mane ni ewi ohinga man Jezreel noneno jolweny Jehu kabiro, nogoyo koko niya, “Aneno ka jolweny biro.” Joram nokone niya, “Or ngʼato gi faras mondo odhi openjgi ka gibiro e yor kwe.”
Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, “I see a company.” Joram said, “Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, ‘Is it peace?’”
18 Jariemb faras noringo moromo gi Jehu mowachone niya, “Ruodha penjo kama: ‘Bende ubiro e yor kwe?’” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Kwe to obadhi angʼo? Luw bangʼa.” Jangʼicho nodwoko wach ni Joram ni, “Jaote osechopo irgi, to ok ane koduogo.”
So one went on horseback to meet him, and said, “the king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu said, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!” The watchman said, “The messenger came to them, but he isn’t coming back.”
19 Kuom mano ruoth nooro jariemb faras mar ariyo. Kane ochopo irgi nowachonegi niya, “Ruodha penjo kama: ‘Bende ubiro e yor kwe?’” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Kwe to obadhi e angʼo? Luw bangʼa.”
Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them and said, “The king says, ‘Is it peace?’” Jehu answered, “What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me!”
20 Jangʼicho noduogo wach ne Joram niya, “Osechopo irgi, to ok ane koduogo. Jariemb gari cha chalo mana gi Jehu wuod Nimshi, kendo oriembo mana ka janeko.”
The watchman said, “He came to them, and isn’t coming back. The driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously.”
21 Joram nogolo chik niya, “Ikna gacha.” To kane giseikone gache, Joram ruodh Israel kod Ahazia ruodh Juda noriembo gechegi, ka ngʼato ka ngʼato ni e gache owuon mondo girom gi Jehu. Negiromo kode e puodho mane mar Naboth ja-Jezreel.
Joram said, “Get ready!” They got his chariot ready. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him on Naboth the Jezreelite’s land.
22 Kane Joram oneno Jehu nopenje niya, “Ibiro e yor kwe koso?” Jehu nodwoke niya, “Ere kaka kwe nyalo betie kapod Jezebel minu dhi nyime gi lamo nyiseche manono kod timo timbe jwok?”
When Joram saw Jehu, he said, “Is it peace, Jehu?” He answered, “What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?”
23 Joram nolokore moa gi ngʼwech kokok ne Ahazia niya, “Ja-andhoga Ahazia!”
Joram turned his hands and fled, and said to Ahaziah, “This is treason, Ahaziah!”
24 Eka Jehu noywayo atungʼ modiro asere kendo ochwoyo kind ngʼede Joram. Asere nopowo dho chunye molwar piny oa ewi gache.
Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.
25 Jehu nowachone Bidkar jatend gechene mag lweny niya, “Kawe ibole e puodho mane mar Naboth ja-Jezreel. Par kaka in kod an ne wariembo gechewa kanyachiel bangʼ Ahab ma wuon-gi kane Jehova Nyasaye okoro wachni kuome kama:
Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, “Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for remember how, when you and I rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden on him:
26 ‘Nyoro ne aneno remb Naboth gi remb yawuote kendo adiera abiro miyo gichul kuom chwero remo e puodho manie pap,’ Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Kaweuru kendo ubole e puodhono kaluwore gi wach Jehova Nyasaye.”
‘Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,’ says the LORD; ‘and I will repay you in this plot of ground,’ says the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, according to the LORD’s word.”
27 Kane Ahazia ruodh Juda oneno gima otimore noringo kotony gi yor Beth-Hagan. Jehu nolawe kakok niya, “En bende negeuru!” Ne gihinye ewi gache mar lweny koringo ochomo Gur man but Ibleam, to notony kodhi Megido kuma nothoe.
But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed after him, and said, “Strike him also in the chariot!” They struck him at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. He fled to Megiddo, and died there.
28 Jotichne nokawe gi gach lweny nyaka Jerusalem moike kod kwerene e bure mantiere e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi.
His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in David’s city.
29 E higa mar apar gachiel mar Joram wuod Ahab, Ahazia nobedo ruoth e piny Juda.
In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab, Ahaziah began to reign over Judah.
30 Kane Jehu odhi Jezreel, Jezebel nowinjo birone kanyo, mi obuko wangʼe kendo oloso wiye kongʼicho gie dirisa.
When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked out at the window.
31 Kane Jehu odonjo e dhorangach nopenjo niya, “Ibiro e yor kwe, in Zimri ma janek ruodheni?”
As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, “Do you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?”
32 Nongʼiyo malo e dirisa mopenjo niya, “En ngʼa ma jakora? En ngʼa?” Eka ji ariyo kata adek mabwoch nongʼiye gi kwinyo.
He lifted up his face to the window, and said, “Who is on my side? Who?” Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.
33 Jehu nowachonegi niya, “Diruru dhakono piny!” Omiyo negidire piny ma rembe moko okirore e kor ohinga ka farase nyone piny.
He said, “Throw her down!” So they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.
34 Jehu nodonjo e dalano mochiemo kendo ometho. Eka nowachonegi niya, “Kawuru dhako mokwongʼno udhi uyiki, nimar ne en nyar ruoth.”
When he had come in, he ate and drank. Then he said, “See now to this cursed woman, and bury her; for she is a king’s daughter.”
35 To kane gidhi yike onge gima negiyudo makmana hanga wiye, tiendene gi lwetene.
They went to bury her, but they found no more of her than the skull, the feet, and the palms of her hands.
36 Negidok ma giwachone Jehu wachno, mane owacho niya, “Ma e wach mane Jehova Nyasaye owacho kokadho kuom jatichne Elija ja-Tishbi: E puodho manie paw Jezreel guogi nokidh ringre Jezebel.
Therefore they came back, and told him. He said, “This is the LORD’s word, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, ‘The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,
37 Ringre Jezebel nochal ka owuoyo moyar e pewe mag Jezreel, maonge ngʼama nyalo wacho ni ma Jezebel.”
and the body of Jezebel will be as dung on the surface of the field on Jezreel’s land, so that they won’t say, “This is Jezebel.”’”
