¹Ja prohvet Eliisa kutsus ühe prohvetijüngri ning ütles temale: 'Pane vöö vööle, võta kätte see õlikruus ja mine Gileadi Raamotisse!

¹And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up thy loins, and take this vial of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-Gilead.

²Ja kui sa jõuad sinna, siis vaata, kus on Jehu, Nimsi poja Joosafati poeg; siis mine sisse, käsi teda üles tõusta oma vendade keskelt ja vii ta tagakambrisse!

²And when thou art come thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him rise up from among his brethren, and bring him to an inner chamber;

³Võta siis õlikruus ja vala õli temale pähe ning ütle: Nõnda ütleb Issand: Mina olen võidnud sind Iisraeli kuningaks! Ava siis uks ja põgene viivitamata!'

³then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head and say, Thus saith Jehovah: I have anointed thee king over Israel; and open the door, and flee, and tarry not.

⁴Ja noor mees, prohveti teener, läks Gileadi Raamotisse.

⁴And the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth-Gilead.

⁵Ja kui ta jõudis sinna, vaata, siis istusid seal väepealikud. Ja ta ütles: 'Pealik, mul on sinule midagi rääkida!' Ja Jehu küsis: 'Kellele meie kõigi hulgast?' Ja ta vastas: 'Sinule, pealik!'

⁵And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting. And he said, I have an errand to thee, captain. And Jehu said, To which of all of us? And he said, To thee, captain.

⁶Siis ta tõusis ja läks kotta; ja noor mees valas õli temale pähe ning ütles temale: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand, Iisraeli Jumal: Mina olen võidnud sind kuningaks Issanda rahvale Iisraelile!

⁶And he rose up and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over the people of Jehovah, over Israel.

⁷Sa pead maha lööma oma isanda Ahabi soo, et ma saaksin tasuda Iisebelile oma sulaste, prohvetite vere ja kõigi Issanda sulaste vere eest!

⁷And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master; and I will avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Jehovah at the hand of Jezebel.

⁸Kogu Ahabi sugu peab hukkuma: ma hävitan Ahabil meesolendid, niihästi orjad kui vabad Iisraelis!

⁸And the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.

⁹Ma talitan Ahabi sooga nagu Nebati poja Jerobeami sooga ja Ahija poja Baesa sooga.

⁹And I will make the house of Ahab as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and as the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.

¹⁰Koerad söövad Iisebeli Jisreeli põllul ja teda ei maeta maha.' Siis ta avas ukse ja põgenes.

¹⁰And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the plot of Jizreel, and none shall bury her. And he opened the door and fled.

¹¹Kui Jehu tuli välja oma isanda sulaste juurde, siis küsiti temalt: 'Kas kõik on hästi? Mispärast see hull tuli sinu juurde?' Ja ta vastas neile: 'Te ju tunnete meest ja tema kõnet!'

¹¹And Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord. And one said to him, Is all well? why came this madman to thee? And he said to them, Ye know the man, and his mind.

¹²Aga nad ütlesid: 'Vale! Räägi ometi meile!' Ja ta ütles: 'Ta rääkis mulle seda ja teist ning ütles: Nõnda ütleb Issand: Mina olen võidnud sind Iisraeli kuningaks!'

¹²And they said, It is false! tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spoke he to me saying, Thus saith Jehovah: I have anointed thee king over Israel.

¹³Siis nad kõik võtsid kähku oma kuued ja panid need temale alla, trepiastmete peale, ja nad puhusid sarve ning ütlesid: 'Jehu on saanud kuningaks!'

¹³Then they hasted and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the very stairs, and blew with trumpets, and said, Jehu is king!

¹⁴Ja Jehu, Nimsi poja Joosafati poeg, pidas vandenõu Joorami vastu, Jooram oli olnud kaitsmas Gileadi Raamotit, tema ja kogu Iisrael, Süüria kuninga Hasaeli vastu.

¹⁴And Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram kept Ramoth-Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;

¹⁵Aga kuningas Jooram oli tulnud tagasi, et Jisreelis lasta ennast ravida haavadest, mis süürlased olid löönud, kui ta sõdis Süüria kuninga Hasaeli vastu. Ja Jehu ütles: 'Kui te olete nõus, siis ärge laske linnast lahkuda kedagi, kes võiks minna Jisreeli seda kuulutama!'

¹⁵and king Joram had returned to be healed in Jizreel of the wounds that the Syrians had given him, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your will, let not a fugitive escape out of the city to go to tell [it] in Jizreel.

¹⁶Ja Jehu astus vankrisse ning läks Jisreeli, sest Jooram lamas seal ja Juuda kuningas Ahasja oli tulnud Jooramit vaatama.

¹⁶And Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jizreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.

¹⁷Aga Jisreelis seisis valvur tornis ja nägi Jehu jõuku tulevat ning ütles: 'Ma näen ühte jõuku.' Ja Jooram ütles: 'Võta üks ratsanik ja läkita neile vastu, et ta küsiks, kas on rahu!'

¹⁷And the watchman stood on the tower in Jizreel, and saw Jehu's company as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?

¹⁸Ja ratsanik läks temale vastu ning ütles: 'Nõnda ütleb kuningas: Kas on rahu?' Ja Jehu vastas: 'Mis on sinul rahuga tegemist? Pöördu ümber ja tule mu järel!' Ja valvur teatas ning ütles: 'Käskjalg jõudis nende juurde, aga ei tule tagasi.'

¹⁸So there went one on horseback to meet him; and he said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told saying, The messenger came to them, and he does not return.

¹⁹Siis kuningas läkitas teise ratsaniku; ja see tuli nende juurde ning ütles: 'Nõnda ütleb kuningas: Kas on rahu?' Ja Jehu vastas: 'Mis on sinul rahuga tegemist? Pöördu ümber ja tule mu järel!'

¹⁹And he sent out a second on horseback; and he came to them and said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

²⁰Ja valvur teatas ning ütles: 'Ta jõudis nende juurde, aga ei tule tagasi. Ja kihutamine oleks nagu Nimsi poja Jehu kihutamise moodi, sest too kihutab nagu hull!'

²⁰And the watchman told saying, He came to them, and does not return. And the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he drives furiously.

²¹Siis ütles Jooram: 'Rakendage!' Hobused rakendati vankri ette ja Jooram, Iisraeli kuningas, ja Ahasja, Juuda kuningas, läksid välja kumbki oma vankris. Nad läksid Jehule vastu ja kohtasid teda jisreellase Naaboti põllul.

²¹Then Joram said, Make ready! And they made ready his chariot. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the plot of Naboth the Jizreelite.

²²Ja kui Jooram nägi Jehut, siis ta küsis: 'Kas on rahu, Jehu?' Ja too vastas: 'Mis rahu, niikaua kui su ema Iisebeli hoorusi ja nõidusi on nii palju!'

²²And it came to pass when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he said, What peace, so long as the fornications of thy mother Jezebel and her sorceries are so many?

²³Siis Jooram pöördus ümber ja põgenes ning ütles Ahasjale: 'See on äraandmine, Ahasja!'

²³Then Joram turned his hand, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, Treachery, Ahaziah!

²⁴Aga Jehu tõmbas oma käega ammu vinna ja tabas Jooramit õlgade vahele, nõnda et nool läbistas ta südame ja ta vajus vankris kokku.

²⁴And Jehu took his bow in his hand, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out through his heart; and he sank down in his chariot.

²⁵Ja Jehu ütles Bidkarile, oma vankrisõdurile: 'Võta ja viska ta jisreellase Naaboti põllulapile, sest mulle meenub, et kui mina ja sina ratsutasime kõrvuti tema isa Ahabi järel, siis pani Issand tema peale selle ennustuse:

²⁵And he said to Bidkar his captain, Take him up [and] cast him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jizreelite. For remember how, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, that Jehovah laid this burden upon him:

²⁶Tõesti, ma nägin eile Naaboti ja tema poegade verd, oli Issanda ütlus, ja ma maksan sulle kätte selle põllu peal, oli samuti Issanda ütlus. Ja nüüd võta, viska ta põllule Issanda sõna kohaselt!'

²⁶Certainly I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith Jehovah; and I will requite thee in this plot, saith Jehovah. And now, take [and] cast him into the plot, according to the word of Jehovah.

²⁷Kui Ahasja, Juuda kuningas, seda nägi, siis ta põgenes Beet-Gaani poole; aga Jehu ajas teda taga ja ütles: 'Laske ka tema vankris maha!' Ja nõnda sündiski Guuri tõusuteel, mis on Jibleami juures; ent ta põgenes Megiddosse ja suri seal.

²⁷When Ahaziah king of Judah saw [that], he fled by the way of the garden-house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in his chariot. It was on the ascent of Gur, which is by Jibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.

²⁸Ja ta sulased viisid ta vankriga Jeruusalemma ja matsid ta tema oma hauda ta vanemate juurde Taaveti linna.

²⁸And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.

²⁹Ahasja oli saanud Juuda kuningaks Joorami, Ahabi poja üheteistkümnendal aastal.

²⁹(And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab had Ahaziah begun to reign over Judah.)

³⁰Ja Jehu tuli Jisreeli. Kui Iisebel seda kuulis, siis ta jumestas oma palge ja kaunistas pea ning vaatas aknast välja.

³⁰And Jehu came to Jizreel; and Jezebel heard of it, and she put paint to her eyes, and decked her head, and looked out at the window.

³¹Ja kui Jehu jõudis väravasse, siis küsis Iisebel: 'Kas on rahu, Simri, oma isanda tapja?'

³¹And when Jehu came in at the gate, she said, Is it peace, Zimri, murderer of his master?

³²Ja Jehu tõstis oma silmad üles akna poole ja küsis: 'Kes on minu poolt? Kes?' Siis vaatas kaks-kolm hoovkondlast alla tema poole.

³²And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And two or three chamberlains looked out to him.

³³Ja Jehu ütles: 'Kukutage ta alla!' Siis nad kukutasid Iisebeli alla ja ta veri pritsis seina ja hobuste peale; ja ta tallati ära.

³³And he said, Throw her down! And they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses; and he trampled on her.

³⁴Siis Jehu läks sisse, sõi ja jõi ning ütles: 'Kandke nüüd hoolt selle neetu eest ja matke ta maha, sest ta on ikkagi kuninga tütar!'

³⁴And he came in, and ate and drank; and he said, Go, look, I pray you, after this cursed [woman], and bury her; for she is a king's daughter.

³⁵Nad läksid teda matma, aga ei leidnud temast muud kui pealuu, jalad ja kämblad.

³⁵And they went to bury her; but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.

³⁶Ja nad tulid tagasi ning teatasid Jehule; ja tema ütles: 'See on see Issanda sõna, mis ta rääkis oma sulase, tisbelase Eelija läbi, kui ta ütles: Jisreeli põllul söövad koerad Iisebeli liha.

³⁶And they came back and told him. And he said, This is the word of Jehovah, which he spoke through his servant Elijah the Tishbite saying, In the plot of Jizreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel;

³⁷Ja Iisebeli laip on nagu sõnnik väljal, Jisreeli põllul, nõnda et ükski ei saa öelda: See on Iisebel!'

³⁷and the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the open field in the plot of Jizreel, so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.
