< 2 Kings 9 >

1 And Eliseus the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, slid said to him: Gird up thy loins, and take this little bottle of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth Galaad.
Pea naʻe ui mai ʻe ʻIlaisa ha tokotaha ʻi he fānau ʻae kau palōfita, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “Nonoʻo ho noʻotanga vala, mo ke ʻave ʻi ho nima ʻae puha ni ʻoe lolo, pea ke ʻalu ki Lemoti-Kiliati:
2 And when thou art come thither, thou shalt see Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi: and going in thou shalt make him rise up from amongst his brethren, and carry him into an inner chamber.
Pea ʻoka ke ka hoko atu ki ai, ke ke kumi kia Sehu ko e foha ʻo Sihosafate ko e foha ʻo Nimisi, pea ke hū atu, pea ke pule ke ne tuʻu hake mei he haʻohaʻonga ʻo hono kāinga, pea ke ʻave ia ki ha loki ʻi loto fale;
3 Then taking the little bottle of oil, thou shalt pour it on his head, and shalt say: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel. And thou shalt open the door and flee, and shalt not stay there.
Pea ke toki toʻo ʻae puha lolo, mo ke lilingi ki hono ʻulu, mo ke pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Kuo u fakanofo koe ko e tuʻi ki ʻIsileli.’ Pea hili ia ke ke fakaava ʻae matapā, pea ke hola, pea ʻoua naʻa ke fakatuotuai.”
4 So the young man, the servant of the prophet, went awry to Ramoth Galaad,
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻae tangata talavou, ʻio, ʻae palōfita talavou, ki Lemoti-Kiliati.
5 And went in thither: and behold the captains of the army were sitting: and he said: I have a word to thee, O prince. And Jehu said: Unto whom of us all? And he said: To thee, O prince.
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko ange, vakai, naʻe nonofo fakataha ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe kautau; pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo u haʻu mo ha fekau kiate koe, ʻe ʻeiki.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Kia hai ʻiate kimautolu kotoa pē?” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Kiate koe, ʻe ʻeiki.”
6 And he arose, and went into the chamber: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over Israel, the people of the Lord.
Pea naʻa ne tuʻu hake, mo ne hū atu ai ki loto fale; pea naʻa ne lilingi ʻae lolo ki hono ʻulu, mo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Kuo u fakanofo koe ko e tuʻi ke pule ki he kakai ʻa Sihova, ʻio, ki ʻIsileli.
7 And thou shalt cut off the house of Achab thy master, and I will revenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord at the hand of Jezabel.
Pea te ke taaʻi ʻae fale ʻo ʻEhapi ko hoʻo ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke u fai totongi koeʻuhi ko e toto ʻo ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita, pea mo e toto ʻoe kau tamaioʻeiki kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ʻi he nima ʻo Sisipeli.
8 And I will destroy all the house of Achab, and I will cut off from Achab him that pisseth against the well, and him that is shut up, and the meanest in Israel.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻauha ʻae fale kotoa ʻo ʻEhapi: pea te u motuhi meia ʻEhapi ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē pea mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku tāpuni mo toe ʻi ʻIsileli:
9 And I will make the house of Achab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias.
Pea te u ngaohi ke tatau ʻae fale ʻo ʻEhapi mo e fale ʻo Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, pea ke tatau mo e fale ʻo Paʻasa ko e foha ʻo ʻAhisa:
10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel, and there shall be no one to bury her. And he opened the door and fled.
Pea ʻe keina ʻa Sisipeli ʻe he fanga kulī ʻi he potu ʻo Sesilili, pea ʻe ʻikai tanu ia ʻe ha tokotaha.’” Pea naʻa ne toʻo ʻae matapā mo ne hola.
11 Then Jehu went forth to the servants of his lord: and they said to him: Are all things well? why came this mad man to thee? And he said to them: You know the man, and what he said.
Hili ia naʻe hū mai kituʻa ʻa Sehu ki he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻene ʻeiki: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tokotaha kiate ia, “ʻOku lelei kotoa pē? Ko e hā naʻe haʻu ai ʻae siana faha ni kiate koe?” Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻOku mou ʻilo pe ʻae tangata, pea mo ʻene lau.”
12 But they answered: It is false, but rather do thou tell us. And he said to them: Thus and thus did he speak to me: and he said: Thus saith the Lord: I have anointed thee king over Israel.
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e loi; ka ke tala mai ni.” Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Naʻe pehē mo pehē ʻa ʻene lea kiate au, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova kuo u fakanofo koe ke ke tuʻi ki ʻIsileli.’”
13 Then they made haste and taking every man his garment laid it under his feet, after the manner of a judgment seat, and they sounded the trumpet, and said: Jehu is king.
Pea naʻa nau fai vave ai, pea toʻo taki taha ʻe he tangata ʻa hono kofu, pea ʻai ia ki lalo ʻiate ia ʻi he potu māʻolunga ʻoe hala tuʻunga, pea [naʻa nau ]ifi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku tuʻi ʻa Sehu.”
14 So Jehu the son of Josaphat the son of Namsi conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Galaad, he and all Israel fighting with Hazael king of Syria:
Ko ia naʻe te u lapa ʻe Sehu ko e foha ʻo Sihosafate ko e foha ʻo Nimisi kia Solami. (Ka ko eni naʻe maʻu pe ʻe Solami ʻa Lemoti-Kiliati, ʻe ia mo ʻIsileli kātoa, koeʻuhi ko Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia.
15 And was returned to be healed in Jezrahel of his wounds, for the Syrians had wounded him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Jehu said: If it please you, let no mall go forth or flee out of the city, lest he go, and tell in Jezrahel.
Ka kuo liliu mai ʻa Solami ki Sesilili ke fakamoʻui ia mei he ngaahi lavea naʻa ne lavea ai ʻi he kakai Silia, ʻi heʻene tau mo Hasaeli ko e tuʻi ʻo Silia.) Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Kapau ko homou loto ia, pea ʻoua naʻa tuku ha taha ke ʻalu atu pe hao mei he kolo ke ʻalu ʻo fakahā ia ʻi Sesilili.”
16 And he got up, and went into Jezrahel: for Joram was sick there, and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to visit Joram.
Pea pehē, naʻe heka ʻa Sehu ʻi ha saliote, mo ne ʻalu ki Sesilili; he naʻe tokoto ai ʻa Solami. Pea kuo haʻu ʻa ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ke ʻaʻahi kia Solami.
17 The watchmen therefore, that stood upon the tower of Jezrahel, saw the troop of Jehu coming, and said: I see a troop. And Joram said: Take a chariot, and send to meet them, and let him that goeth say: Is all well?
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae tangata leʻo ʻi he fale māʻolunga ʻo Sesilili, pea naʻa ne mamata ki he kau fononga ʻo Sehu ʻi heʻene haʻu, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku ou sio ki ha fononga.” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solami, “Fekau ki ha tangata heka hoosi, ke ʻalu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu,” pea tala ke ne pehē, “Ko e lelei pe ʻikai?”
18 So there went one in a chariot to meet him, and said: Thus saith the king: Are all things peaceable? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? go behind and follow me. And the watchman told, saying: The messenger came to them, but he returneth not.
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ʻae tokotaha naʻe heka hoosi ke fetaulaki mo ia, pea naʻa ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe he tuʻi, pe ko e lelei pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sehu, “Ko e hā ʻa hoʻo kau ʻaʻau ki he lelei? Foki atu ki hoku tuʻa. Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo pehē, “Naʻe hokoange ʻae tangata fekau kiate kinautolu ka ʻoku ʻikai toe foki mai ia.”
19 And he sent a second chariot of horses: and he came to them, and said: Thus saith the king: Is there peace? And Jehu said: What hast thou to do with peace? pass, and follow me.
Pea naʻa ne toki fekau atu ha tokotaha kehe ke heka hoosi, pea naʻa ne hokoange kiate kinautolu, mo ne pehē, “ʻOku pehē mai ʻe he tuʻi, pe ko e lelei pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sehu, “Ko e hā ʻa hoʻo kau ʻaʻau ki he lelei? ʻAlu koe ki hoku tuʻa.”
20 And the watchman told, saying: He came even to them, but returneth not: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Namsi, for he drives furiously.
Pea naʻe fakahā ʻe he tangata leʻo, ʻo pehē, “Naʻa ne hoko atu kiate kinautolu, ka ʻoku ʻikai te ne toe foki mai: pea ko e angi ki [he manu ]ʻoku hangē ko e ʻalu ʻa Sehu ko e foha ʻo Nimisi; he ʻoku ne ʻalu fakavave ʻaupito.”
21 And Joram said: Make ready the chariot. And they made ready his chariot, and Joram king of Israel, and Ochozias king of Juda went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Solami, “Mou teuteu.” Pea naʻe teuteu ʻa hono saliote. Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻa Solami ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ko e taki taha ʻi hono saliote, pea naʻa na ʻalu atu ke tali ʻa Sehu, pea naʻa nau fetaulaki mo ia ʻi he ʻapi ʻo Napoti ko e tangata Sesilili.
22 And when Joram saw Jehu, he said: Is there peace, Jehu? And he answered: What peace? so long as the fornications of Jezabel thy mother, and her many sorceries are in their vigour.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Solami kia Sehu, naʻa ne pehē, “ʻE Sehu, ʻoku lelei pē pe ʻikai?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe ia, “ʻO lelei fēfeeʻi ka kuo lahi pehē fau ʻae ngaahi feʻauaki mo e ngaahi ngāue fakatēvolo ʻa hoʻo faʻē ko Sisipeli?”
23 And Joram turned his hand, and fleeing, said to Ochozias: There is treachery, Ochozias.
Pea naʻe fakatafoki ʻae nima ʻo Solami, pea naʻa ne hola, ʻo ne pehē kia ʻAhasia, “ʻE ʻAhasia kuo fai ʻae lapa.”
24 But Jehu bent Iris bow with his hand, and shot Joram between the shoulders: and the arrow went out through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.
Pea naʻe tekeʻi ʻe Sehu ʻae kaufana ʻaki ʻa ʻene mālohi kātoa, pea naʻa ne fanaʻi ʻa Solami ʻi hono vahaʻa nima, pea naʻe ʻasi atu ʻae ngahau mei hono mafu, pea naʻa ne tō hifo ʻi hono saliote.
25 And Jehu said to Badacer his captain: Take him, and cast him into the field of Naboth the Jezrahelite: for I remember when I and thou sitting in a chariot followed Achab this man’s father, that the Lord laid this burden upon him, saying:
Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe [Sehu ]kia Pitikali ko ʻene ʻeikitau, “Toʻo hake mo lī ia ki he potu ʻi he ngoue ʻoe tautea ni kiate ia;
26 If I do not requite thee in this field, saith the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his children, which I saw yesterday, saith the Lord. So now take him, and cast him into the field, according to the word of the Lord.
‘ko e moʻoni kuo u mamata ʻaneafi ki he toto ʻo Napoti mo e toto ʻo hono ngaahi foha,’ ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ki he potu na, ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.”
27 But Ochozias king of Juda seeing this, fled by the way of the garden house: and Jehu pursued him, and said: Strike him also in his chariot. And they struck him in the going up to Gaver, which is by Jeblaam: and he fled into Mageddo, and died there.
Ka ʻi heʻene mamata ki ai ni ʻa ʻAhasia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta naʻa ne hola ʻi he hala ʻoe fale ngoue. Pea naʻe muimui kiate ia ʻa Sehu, mo ne pehē, “Tāʻi foki ia ʻi hono saliote.” Pea naʻe fai ia ʻi he hakenga ki Kuli ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki Ipiliami. Pea naʻa ne hola ki Mekito, mo ne pekia ʻi ai.
28 And his servants laid him upon his chariot, and carried him to Jerusalem: and they buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.
Pea naʻe ʻave ia ʻi ha saliote ki Selūsalema ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea naʻe fai hono putu ki he fonualoto ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita.
29 In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Achab, Ochozias reigned over Juda,
Pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma taha ʻoe taʻu ʻa Solami ko e foha ʻo ʻEhapi naʻe kamata pule ʻa ʻAhasia ki Siuta.
30 And Jehu came into Jezrahel. But Jezabel hearing of his coming in, painted her face with stibic stone, and adorned her head, and looked out of a window
Pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai ʻa Sehu ki Sesilili, naʻe fanongo ʻa Sisipeli ki ai; pea naʻa ne ʻai ʻae loa ki hono mata, mo ne ʻai ʻae teunga ki hono ʻulu, pea sio ia mei he matapā sioʻata.
31 At Jehu coming in at the gate, and said: Can there be peace for Zambri, that hath killed his master?
Pea feʻunga mo ʻene hū mai ʻa Sehu ʻi he matapā ʻoe kolo, naʻa ne pehē, “Naʻe lelei koā ʻa Simili, ʻaia naʻa ne fakapoongi ʻa ʻene ʻeiki?”
32 And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and said: Who is this? And two or three eunuchs bowed down to him.
Pea naʻe hanga hake ʻe ia ʻa hono mata ki he matapā sioʻata, mo ne pehē, “Ko hai ʻoku kau kiate au? Ko hai?” Pea naʻe sio mai mei he matapā sioʻata ha kau tangata tali fekau ʻe toko ua pe toko tolu.
33 And he said to them: Throw her down headlong: and they threw her down, and the wall was sprinkled with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trod upon her.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Laku hifo ia.” Ko ia naʻa nau laku ia ki lalo: pea naʻe puna ʻa hono toto ki he ʻā, pea ki he fanga hoosi: pea naʻa ne malaki hifo ia ʻi hono lalo vaʻe.
34 And when he was come in, to eat, and to drink, he said: Go, and see after that cursed woman, and bury her: because she is a king’s daughter.
Pea ʻi heʻene hū mai ki loto fale, naʻa ne kai mo inu, mo ne pehē, “Mou ʻalu, ʻo sio eni ki he fefine malaʻia ni, pea ʻave ʻo tanu ia; he ko e ʻofefine ia ʻo ha tuʻi.”
35 And when they went to bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the extremities of her hands.
Pea naʻa nau ʻalu atu ke fai hono tanu: ka naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻilo hano potu ka ko hono ʻulupoko pe, mo e foʻi vaʻe, pea mo e ʻaofi nima.
36 And coming back they told him. And Jehu said: It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servant Elias the Thesbite, saying: In the field of Jezrahel the dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezabel,
Ko ia naʻa nau toe omi ai ʻo fakahā kiate ia. Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko eni ia ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻi heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko ʻIlaisiā ko e tangata Tisipa, ʻo pehē, ‘ʻI he potu [fonua ]ʻo Sesilili ʻe keina ʻe he fanga kulī ʻae kakano ʻo Sisipeli.
37 And the flesh of Jezabel shall be as dung upon the face of the earth in the field of Jezrahel, so that they who pass by shall say: Is this that same Jezabel?
Pea ʻe tatau ʻae ʻangaʻanga ʻo Sisipeli mo e kinohaʻa ʻi he funga fonua ʻi he potu ʻo Sesilili; pea ʻe ʻikai ai te nau faʻa pehē, Ko Sisipeli eni.’”
