< 2 Kings 10 >

1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up Ahab’s sons, saying,
Ahab loe Samaria ah capa quisarihto tawnh; Jehu mah ca tarik moe, Jezreel vangpui ukkung, kacoehtanawk, Ahab ih caanawk khenzawn kaminawk ohhaih Samaria vangpui ah pat pae,
2 “Now as soon as this letter comes to you, since your master’s sons are with you, and you have chariots and horses, a fortified city also, and armor,
tarik ih ca thungah, Nangcae loe nangmacae angraeng ih caanawk, hrang lakoknawk, hrang angthueng kaminawk, sipae thungh ih kacak vangpui, maiphaw maica hoi kakoep ah na oh o pongah, hae ca nangcae khae phak pacoengah,
3 select the best and fittest of your master’s sons, set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.”
nangmacae angraeng thungah kahoih koek capanawk to qoi oh loe, anih to ampa ih angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu o sak ah; na angraeng ih imthung takoh hanah misatuh oh, tiah tarik.
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, “Behold, the two kings did not stand before him! How then shall we stand?”
Toe nihcae loe paroeai zit o moe, khenah, siangpahrang Joram hoi Ahaziah loe anih hmaa ah angdoe hoi thai ai; aicae taoe cae loe kawbangmaw angdoe thai tih?
5 He who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who raised the children, sent to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants, and will do all that you ask us. We will not make any man king. You do that which is good in your eyes.”
To pongah siangpahrang im ukkung, vangpui ukkung, kacoehtanawk hoi nawktanawk khenzawn kaminawk mah Jehu khaeah, Kaicae loe na tamna ah ka oh o boeh pongah, na thuih ih hmuen to ka sak o boih han; mi doeh siangpahrang ah ka suem o mak ai; na mikhnukah hoih, tiah na poek ih baktih toengah sah ah, tiah a naa o.
6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, “If you are on my side, and if you will listen to my voice, take the heads of the men who are your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time.” Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
To pacoengah Jehu mah nihcae khaeah, vai hnetto haih ca tarik pae let; nangcae loe kai ih kami ah na oh o moe, kai ih lok tahngai han, tiah na thuih o nahaeloe, na angraeng capanawk ih lu to Jezreel ah khawnbang hae atue ah, kai khaeah na sin oh, tiah a naa. Siangpahrang capa, kami quisarihtonawk loe vangpui zaehoikungnawk hoi nawnto oh o, nihcae mah khetzawn o.
7 When the letter came to them, they took the king’s sons and killed them, even seventy people, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
Nihcae khaeah ca phak naah loe, to kaminawk mah siangpahrang capa, kami quisarihtonawk to hum o boih; nihcae ih lu to pahang pongah pacaengh o moe, Jehu khaeah Jezreel ah pat pae o.
8 A messenger came and told him, “They have brought the heads of the king’s sons.” He said, “Lay them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.”
Laicaeh maeto phak naah, Jehu khaeah, Siangpahrang capanawk ih lu to ang sin o boeh, tiah thuih pae o. Anih mah, Hnetto ah tapraek oh loe, vangpui khongkha akunhaih ahmuen ah akhawnbang khoek to suem oh, tiah a naa.
9 In the morning, he went out and stood, and said to all the people, “You are righteous. Behold, I conspired against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?
Jehu loe akhawnbang khawnthaw ah caeh moe, kaminawk boih hmaa ah angdoet pacoengah, Nangcae loe zaehaih na tawn o ai; khenah, kaimah ni ka angraeng hae misa ah ka suek moe, anih to ka hum; toe mi mah maw hae kaminawk hae hum boih?
10 Know now that nothing will fall to the earth of the LORD’s word, which the LORD spoke concerning Ahab’s house. For the LORD has done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.”
Angraeng mah thuih ih Ahab imthung takoh kawng loe maeto doeh anghmaa ai, tiah vaihi panoek oh; Angraeng loe a tamna Elijah khaeah thuih ih lok to sak boeh, tiah a naa.
11 So Jehu struck all that remained of Ahab’s house in Jezreel, with all his great men, his familiar friends, and his priests, until he left him no one remaining.
To pongah Jehu mah Jezreel ah kaom Ahab ih imthung takoh boih, anih ih angraengnawk boih, anih ih nawkamyanawk boih, anih ih qaimanawk to maeto doeh tahmat ai ah hum bit.
12 He arose and departed, and went to Samaria. As he was at the shearing house of the shepherds on the way,
Jehu loe angthawk moe, Samaria vangpui ah caeh; loklam taeng ih tuumui aahhaih im phak naah,
13 Jehu met with the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, “Who are you?” They answered, “We are the brothers of Ahaziah. We are going down to greet the children of the king and the children of the queen.”
Jehu mah Judah siangpahrang Ahaziah ih nawkamyanawk to hnuk naah, Nangcae loe mi aa? tiah a naa. Nihcae mah, Kaicae loe Ahaziah ih nawkamya ah ka oh o; siangpahrang ih caanawk hoi siangpahrang zu ih caanawk khet hanah kang zoh o tathuk, tiah a naa o.
14 He said, “Take them alive!” They took them alive, and killed them at the pit of the shearing house, even forty-two men. He did not leave any of them.
Anih mah, Nihcae to kahing ah caeh o haih ah, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae to kahing ah a hoih o moe, tuumui aahhaih im ah hum o; kami quipali, hnetto oh o; maeto doeh pathlung o ai.
15 When he had departed from there, he met Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him. He greeted him, and said to him, “Is your heart right, as my heart is with your heart?” Jehonadab answered, “It is.” “If it is, give me your hand.” He gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
To ahmuen to tacawt taak pacoengah, anih hnuk hanah angzo, Rekap capa Jehonadab to anih mah hnuk; Jehu mah anih to ban sin pacoengah, Ka poekhaih palungthin nang khaeah oh baktih toengah, na poekhaih palungthin loe toeng hmang maw? tiah a naa. Jehonadab mah, Toeng hmang, tiah a naa. Jehu mah, To tiah toeng nahaeloe, na ban to na paek ah, tiah a naa. Anih mah a ban to paek naah, Jehu mah a ohhaih hrang lakok nuiah anih to zaeh tahang.
16 He said, “Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD.” So they made him ride in his chariot.
Jehu mah, Kai khaeah angzoh loe, Angraeng ah tha ka pathokhaih to khen ah, tiah a naa. To pongah anih to hrang lakok hoiah caeh haih poe.
17 When he came to Samaria, he struck all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, until he had destroyed them, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke to Elijah.
Jehu mah Samaria vangpui phak naah, Angraeng mah Elijah khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, kanghmat Ahab imthung takoh hum boih ai karoek to maeto doeh anghmat ai ah hum.
18 Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.
Jehu mah kaminawk boih nawnto pakueng pacoengah, nihcae khaeah, Ahab loe Baal ih tok zetta ni sak; Jehu loe anih pong pop aep ah sah tih.
19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all of his worshipers, and all of his priests. Let no one be absent, for I have a great sacrifice to Baal. Whoever is absent, he shall not live.” But Jehu did deceptively, intending to destroy the worshipers of Baal.
To pongah vaihiah, Baal tahmaanawk boih, anih ih toksah tamnanawk boih, anih ih qaimanawk to kawk o boih ah; Baal han kalen parai angbawnhaih sak ka koeh pongah, mi doeh tahmat o hmah; mi kawbaktih doeh angzo ai kami loe, hing mak ai, tiah a naa. Jehu mah Baal bok kaminawk hum han koeh pongah, nihcae to athlaeng.
20 Jehu said, “Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal!” So they proclaimed it.
Jehu mah, Baal kawng thuih hanah amkhueng oh, tiah a naa. Kaminawk loe Baal kawng thuih hanah amkhueng o.
21 Jehu sent through all Israel; and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that did not come. They came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to another.
Israel prae boih ah lok pat o; to tiah Baal toksah kaminawk loe, maeto doeh anghmat ai ah angzoh o. Baal tempul thungah angzoh o, Baal tempul loe hae bang hoi ho bang khoek to koi o khik.
22 He said to him who kept the wardrobe, “Bring out robes for all the worshipers of Baal!” So he brought robes out to them.
Jehu mah khukbuen toep kami to kawk moe, Baal toksah kaminawk boih hanah khukbuen sinh pae hanah a thuih pae. To pongah anih mah nihcae hanah khukbuen to sinh pae.
23 Jehu went with Jehonadab the son of Rechab into the house of Baal. Then he said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search, and see that none of the servants of the LORD are here with you, but only the worshipers of Baal.”
Jehu loe Rakab capa Jehonadab hoi nawnto Baal tempul thungah akun hoi, Jehu mah, Baal bok kaminawk khaeah, Khenah, nangcae salakah Angraeng ih tamna maeto doeh om hmah nasoe, Baal bok kaminawk khue omsak ah, tiah a thuih pae.
24 So they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had appointed for himself eighty men outside, and said, “If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escape, he who lets him go, his life shall be for the life of him.”
Angbawnhaih sak moe, hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah athung ah akun o naah, Jehu mah tasa bangah kami quitazetto kawk moe, Mi kawbaktih doeh nangcae ban ah ka suek ih, hae kaminawk loisak kami loe, a hinghaih boeng tih, tiah a naa.
25 As soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them! Let no one escape.” So they struck them with the edge of the sword. The guard and the captains threw the bodies out, and went to the inner shrine of the house of Baal.
Hmai angbawnhaih sak pacoengah, Jehu mah katoep kami hoi misatuh angraengnawk khaeah, Athung ah caeh oh loe, hum oh, mi doeh loih o sak hmah, tiah a naa. To pongah nihcae mah sumsen hoiah takroek o; katoep kami hoi misatuh angraengnawk mah kami qok to tasa bangah vah o moe, Baal im ohhaih vangpui bangah caeh o.
26 They brought out the pillars that were in the house of Baal and burned them.
Baal tempul thung ih krangnawk to lak o moe, hmai hoiah qoeng o.
27 They broke down the pillar of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a latrine, to this day.
Baal ih krangnawk to pakhoih o moe, Baal ih tempul doeh a phraek o; to ahmuen to vaihni ni khoek to tamzun thakhhaih hoi aek thakhaih ahmuen ah patoh o.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
To tiah Jehu mah Israel prae thungah Baal bokhaih to phraek.
29 However, Jehu did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin—the golden calves that were in Bethel and that were in Dan.
Toe Jehu loe Israel caanawk zaesakkung Nebat capa Jeroboam zaehaih, Bethel hoi Dan vangpui ah kaom sui hoi sak ih, maitaw caanawk bokhaih to caehtaak ai.
30 The LORD said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and have done to Ahab’s house according to all that was in my heart, your descendants shall sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”
Angraeng mah Jehu khaeah, Ka mikhnukah kaciim hmuen to na sak moe, Ahab imthung takoh ah sak han ka poek ih hmuen to na sak pongah, na caanawk adung pali khoek to Israel angraeng tangkhang nuiah nang hnu o tih, tiah a naa.
31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin.
Toe Jehu loe Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih daannawk to palungthin boih hoi pazui hanah poek ai; Israel caanawk zaesak Jeroboam zaehaih to caehtaak ai.
32 In those days the LORD began to cut away parts of Israel; and Hazael struck them in all the borders of Israel
To nathuem ah Angraeng mah Israel prae to tamcaeksak kue; to pongah Hazael mah Israel prae to pazawk boih;
33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
Jordan prae ni angyae bang, Gilead prae thung boih, Gad, Reuben hoi Manasseh prae boih, Arnon vapui taeng ih Aroer vangpui hoi Gilead prae, Bashan prae khoek to pazawk.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Jehu siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk hoi a sak ih hmuennawk boih loe, Israel siangpahrangnawk ahmin pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
35 Jehu slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria. Jehoahaz his son reigned in his place.
Jehu loe ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, Samaria vangpui ah aphum o. Anih zuengah a capa Jehoahaz to siangpahrang ah oh.
36 The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
Jehu loe Israel kaminawk nuiah Samaria ah saning pumphae tazetto thung siangpahrang ah oh.
