1Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the princes of Jizreel, to the elders, and to Ahab's guardians, saying,
1 Day Ahab gonda ize alboro wayye Samariya ra. Kala Yehu na tirayaŋ hantum ka samba i ma koy Samariya, Yezreyel mayraykoyey do, sanda arkusey da borey kaŋ yaŋ go ga Ahab izey biiri mo ka ne:
2And now, when this letter comes to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots, and horses, and a fortified city, and armour,
2 «Sohõ da tirey wo kaa ka to araŋ do, za kaŋ araŋ jine bora izey go araŋ banda, araŋ gonda wongu torkoyaŋ da bariyaŋ, da wongu jinayey mo, kwaara mo, birni cinari no g'a windi --
3look out the best and worthiest of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.
3 kal araŋ ma suuban bora kaŋ gonda gaakuri da daa hanno ka bisa cindey araŋ jine bora izey ra. Araŋ m'a dake nga baaba karga boŋ ka wongu araŋ jine bora kwaara se.»
4And they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, the two kings stood not before him; and how shall we stand?
4 Amma i humburu gumo ka ne: «Guna, bonkooni hinka din mana hin ka kay a jine, sanku fa iri mo?»
5And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, and the elders, and the guardians sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any one king; do what is good in thy sight.
5 Kala nga kaŋ go windo boŋ da nga kaŋ go kwaara muraadu kulu boŋ da arkusey mo, da ngey kaŋ na bonkoono izey biiri, i donton Yehu gaa ka ne: «Iri ya ni bannyayaŋ no. Hay kulu kaŋ ni n'iri lordi nd'a iri ga te, iri si boro kulu daŋ koytaray ra. Kala ni ma te haŋ kaŋ kaan ni se.»
6And he wrote a letter the second time to them saying, If ye are mine, and will hearken to my voice, take the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jizreel to-morrow at this time. Now the king's sons, seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
6 Alwaato din gaa Yehu na tira hantum sorro hinkanta ka koy i do ka ne: «D'araŋ go ay banda, d'araŋ ga hangan ay sanno se mo, kal araŋ ma borey din, araŋ jine bora izey, boŋey kaa. Araŋ ma kaa ay do suba mãsancine Yezreyel ra.» Bonkoono izey mo, ngey boro wayye no, i go kwaara boro beerey banda, ngey kaŋ yaŋ n'i biiri.
7And it came to pass when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and slaughtered seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jizreel.
7 A ciya mo, alwaato kaŋ tira to i do, kal i na bonkoono izey di k'i wi, i boro wayya din. I n'i boŋey daŋ cillayaŋ ra, k'i samba Yezreyel.
8And a messenger came and told him saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.
8 Kala diya fo go, a kaa ka ci Yehu se ka ne: «I kande bonkoono izey boŋey.» A ne: «W'i margu gu hinka kwaara meyo gaa, hala susubay.»
9And it came to pass in the morning that he went out; and he stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous! behold, I conspired against my master and killed him; but who smote all these?
9 A ciya mo, susuba ra a fatta ka kay ka ne borey kulu se: «Araŋ wo adilante yaŋ no. Guna, ay murte ay jine bora gaa k'a wi, amma may no ka woone yaŋ kulu wi?
10Know now that nothing shall fall to the earth of the word of Jehovah, which Jehovah spoke concerning the house of Ahab; for Jehovah has done that which he said through his servant Elijah.
10 Araŋ ma bay mo sohõ kaŋ Rabbi sanno neeya, hari si no mo kaŋ ga kaŋ ganda sanno kaŋ a ci Ahab dumo boŋ din ra. Zama Rabbi goy ka te haya kaŋ a ci nga tamo Iliya do.»
11And Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jizreel, and all his great men, and his acquaintances, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.
11 Yehu mo na Ahab windi borey kulu kaŋ yaŋ cindi Yezreyel ra wi, d'a wane boro beerey, d'a baakoy, d'a alfagey kulu, hala Yehu mana boro kulu cindi a se.
12And he rose up and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shepherds' meeting-place on the way,
12 Kal a tun ka fatta ka koy Samariya. A go kurukoy banda feeji hamni hõseyaŋ windo do haray fonda boŋ.
13Jehu found the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they said, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and have come down to salute the children of the king, and the children of the queen.
13 Kala Yehu kubay nda Ahaziya, Yahuda bonkoono nya-ka-fo-siney. A ne: «Araŋ wo may yaŋ no?» I tu ka ne: «Iri ya Ahaziya nya-ka-fo-sina yaŋ no. Iri kaa no zama iri ma bonkoono izey, da wayboro-koy izey mo fo.»
14And he said, Take them alive! And they took them alive, and slew them at the well of the meeting-place, forty-two men; and he left not one of them remaining.
14 Kala Yehu ne: «Wa i sambu nda fundi.» I n'i di nda fundi mo k'i wi feeji hamni hõseyaŋ windi guuso me gaa, i boro waytaaci cindi hinka. A mana baa afolloŋ naŋ i ra.
15And he departed thence, and found Jehonadab the son of Rechab [coming] to meet him; and he greeted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab said, It is. -- If it be, give [me] thy hand. -- And he gave [him] his hand; and [Jehu] took him up to him into the chariot,
15 Alwaato kaŋ a tun noodin, kal a na Yonadab Rekab izo gar, a go ga kaa zama nga m'a kubay se. A n'a fo ka ne a se: «Ni bina ga saba no? A go sanda mate kaŋ cine ay bina go ni wano banda mo?» Yonadab tu ka ne: «A ga saba, ya!» Yehu ne: «Da yaadin no, m'ay no ni kamba.» Kal a n'a no nga kamba. A n'a candi ka kande nga do hala torka ra.
16and said, Come with me, and see my zeal for Jehovah. So they made him ride in his chariot.
16 A ne: «Kaa ay banda ka di anniya kaŋ ay gonda Rabbi se.» I n'a kaarandi mo a torka ra.
17And he came to Samaria, and smote all that remained to Ahab in Samaria, until he had destroyed him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke to Elijah.
17 Alwaato kaŋ a kaa Samariya, a na borey kaŋ yaŋ cindi Ahab wane Samariya ra kulu wi, kal a na Ahab dumo tuusu, Rabbi sanno kaŋ a ci Iliya se din boŋ.
18And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little: Jehu will serve him much.
18 Yehu mo na borey kulu margu ka ne i se: «Ahab may Baal* se kayna, amma Yehu ga may a se gumo.
19And now call me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests: let none be wanting; for I have a great sacrifice [to do] to Baal; whoever shall be wanting shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, in order that he might bring destruction upon the servants of Baal.
19 Sohõ mo, kal i ma Baal annabey kulu ce ay se, borey kaŋ yaŋ ga sududu a se, d'a alfagey kulu. I ra baa afo ma si jaŋ _ka kaa|_. Zama sargay bambata go ay se kaŋ ay ga te Baal se. Boro kaŋ i mana di noodin mo, i s'a naŋ da fundi.» Amma hiila no Yehu na woodin te d'a, ga miila nga ma borey kaŋ yaŋ ga sombu Baal jine din halaci.
20And Jehu said, Hallow a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed [it].
20 Yehu ne i ma fe ka ne i ga bine saray marga te Baal sabbay se. I n'a fe mo.
21And Jehu sent into all Israel; and all the servants of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not: and they entered into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to the other.
21 Yehu mo donton nangu kulu Israyla ra, borey kaŋ ga sombu Baal se mo i kulu kaa. Boro fo si no kaŋ mana kaa. Koyne i furo Baal windo ra. Baal fuwo mo to za me woone gaa kala ya-haray meyo gaa.
22And he said to him that was over the wardrobe, Bring forth vestments for all the servants of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.
22 A ne mo bora kaŋ ga fuwo dabari se: «Ma Baal wane sombuyaŋ bankaarayey kulu kaa taray i se.» A fatta nda bankaarayey i se.
23And Jehu and Jehonadab the son of Rechab entered into the house of Baal, and said to the servants of Baal, Search, and see that there be here with you none of the servants of Jehovah, but the servants of Baal only.
23 Yehu mo kaa, nga nda Yonadab Rekab izo, ka koy Baal windo ra. A ne mo borey kaŋ yaŋ ga sombu Baal se: «Wa guna, wa ceeci. I ma si gar boro kaŋ ga may Rabbi se, baa afo, kala ngey kaŋ yaŋ ga sombu Baal se hinne.»
24And they entered in to offer sacrifices and burnt-offerings. Now Jehu appointed eighty men without, and said, He that allows any of the men to escape that I have brought into your hands, his life shall be for the life of him.
24 I furo sargay salleyaŋ se, da sargay kaŋ i ga ton mo, amma Yehu jin ka boro wahakku daŋ taray. A ne i se: «Da borey kaŋ ay daŋ araŋ kambey ra yana, baa afo, bora kaŋ n'a naŋ din fundo ga ciya boro fa din fundo banandi.»
25And it came to pass as soon as they had ended offering up the burnt-offering, that Jehu said to the couriers and to the captains, Go in, slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the couriers and the captains cast [them] there. And they went to the city of the house of Baal,
25 I go no, saaya kaŋ i na sargay kaŋ i ga ton no ka ban, a banda kala Yehu ne nga doogarey da nga soojey se: «Wa furo k'i kulu wi, baa afolloŋ ma si fatta.» I n'i kar mo nda takuba. Doogarey da soojey n'i furu taray. I furo hala Baal fu-izo ra.
26and brought forth the columns out of the house of Baal, and burned them;
26 I fatta nda toorey kaŋ go Baal fu-izo ra k'i ton mo.
27and they broke down the column of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a draught-house to this day.
27 I na Baal cinaro bagu, i na Baal windo mo bagu k'a ciya salanga hala ka kaa sohõ.
28Thus Jehu extirpated Baal out of Israel.
28 Yaadin cine no Yehu na Baal dagu Israyla ra k'a halaci nd'a.
29Only, the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, from them Jehu departed not: [from] the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
29 Amma Yehu mana fay da Yerobowam Nebat izo zunubey bo, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ a ma zunubi te, danga wura handayzey kaŋ go Betel ra da wo kaŋ go Dan ra.
30And Jehovah said to Jehu, Because thou hast executed well that which is right in my sight, [and] hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy children of the fourth [generation] shall sit on the throne of Israel.
30 Rabbi ne Yehu se mo: «Za kaŋ ni na ciiti hanno kaŋ ay miila te, mate kaŋ cine ni te haŋ kaŋ saba ay diyaŋ gaa, ni te mo Ahab dumo se hay kulu kaŋ go ay bina ra, yaadin gaa ni banda hal a ma to zamana taaci ga goro Israyla karga boŋ.»
31But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of Jehovah the God of Israel with all his heart; he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin.
31 Amma Yehu mana saal nga ma dira Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo asariya boŋ da nga bina kulu bo. A mana fay da Yerobowam zunubey, naŋ kaŋ a na Israyla daŋ i ma zunubi te.
32In those days Jehovah began to cut Israel short; and Hazael smote them in all the borders of Israel;
32 Jirbey din ra Rabbi sintin ka Israyla zabu. Hazayel n'i kar Israyla hirrey kulu me gaa,
33from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, both Gilead and Bashan.
33 Urdun hala ma koy wayna funay haray, da Jileyad laabo kulu ka koy Gad da Ruben da Manasse kundey, za Arower kaŋ go Arnon gooro meyo ra, kaŋ ga ti Jileyad da Basan.
34And the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
34 Yehu goy cindey mo, da haŋ kaŋ a te kulu, d'a yaarutaray, manti i n'i hantum Israyla bonkooney baaru tira ra bo?
35And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
35 Yehu mo kani nga kaayey banda. I n'a fiji Samariya. A izo Yehowahaz te bonkooni a nango ra.
36Now the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
36 Jirbey kaŋ Yehu na Israyla may Samariya ra ga ti jiiri waranka cindi ahakku.
