Judgment upon Ahab’s House
1亞哈有七十個兒子在撒馬利亞。耶戶寫信送到撒馬利亞,通知耶斯列的首領,就是長老和教養亞哈眾子的人,說:2「你們那裏既有你們主人的眾子和車馬、器械、堅固城,3接了這信,就可以在你們主人的眾子中選擇一個賢能合宜的,使他坐他父親的位,你們也可以為你們主人的家爭戰。」4他們卻甚懼怕,彼此說:「二王在他面前尚且站立不住,我們怎能站得住呢?」5家宰、邑宰,和長老,並教養眾子的人,打發人去見耶戶,說:「我們是你的僕人,凡你所吩咐我們的都必遵行,我們不立誰作王,你看怎樣好就怎樣行。」6耶戶又給他們寫信說:「你們若歸順我,聽從我的話,明日這時候,要將你們主人眾子的首級帶到耶斯列來見我。」那時王的兒子七十人都住在教養他們那城中的尊貴人家裏。7信一到,他們就把王的七十個兒子殺了,將首級裝在筐裏,送到在耶斯列的耶戶那裏。8有使者來告訴耶戶說:「他們將王眾子的首級送來了。」耶戶說:「將首級在城門口堆作兩堆,擱到明日。」9次日早晨,耶戶出來,站著對眾民說:「你們都是公義的,我背叛我主人,將他殺了;這些人卻是誰殺的呢?10由此可知,耶和華指著亞哈家所說的話一句沒有落空,因為耶和華藉他僕人以利亞所說的話都成就了。」11凡亞哈家在耶斯列所剩下的人和他的大臣、密友、祭司,耶戶盡都殺了,沒有留下一個。
1Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the officials of Jezreel, the elders, and to the guardians of the children of Ahab, saying, 2“And now, when this letter comes to you, since your master’s sons are with you, as well as the chariots and horses, and a fortified city and the weapons, 3select the best and most capable of your master’s sons and seat him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.” 4But they feared greatly and said, “Behold, the two kings did not stand firm before him; how then can we stand?” 5And the one who was in charge of the household, and the one who was in charge of the city, and the elders, and the guardians of the children, sent word to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants, and everything that you tell us we will do. We will not appoint any man king; do what is good in your sight.” 6Then he wrote them a letter a second time, saying, “If you are on my side, and will listen to my voice, take the heads of the men, your master’s sons, and come to me at Jezreel about this time tomorrow.” Now the king’s sons, seventy men, were with the great people of the city, who were raising them. 7When the letter came to them, they took the king’s sons and slaughtered them, seventy men, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him at Jezreel. 8When the messenger came and informed him, saying, “They have brought the heads of the king’s sons,” he said, “Put them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until morning.” 9Now in the morning he went out and stood and said to all the people, “You are innocent; behold, I conspired against my master and killed him, but who killed all these? 10“Know then that nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab, shall fall to the earth, for the LORD has done what He spoke through His servant Elijah.” 11So Jehu killed all who remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, his acquaintances, and his priests, until he left him without a survivor.
12耶戶起身往撒馬利亞去。在路上、牧人剪羊毛之處,13遇見猶大王亞哈謝的弟兄,問他們說:「你們是誰?」回答說:「我們是亞哈謝的弟兄,現在下去要問王和太后的眾子安。」14耶戶吩咐說:「活捉他們!」跟從的人就活捉了他們,將他們殺在剪羊毛之處的坑邊,共四十二人,沒有留下一個。
12Then he set out and went to Samaria. On the way while he was at Beth-eked of the shepherds, 13Jehu encountered the relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah, and he said, “Who are you?” And they answered, “We are the relatives of Ahaziah; and we have come down to greet the sons of the king and the sons of the queen mother.” 14Then he said, “Take them alive.” So they took them alive, and slaughtered them at the pit of Beth-eked, forty-two men; and he left none of them.
15耶戶從那裏前行,恰遇利甲的兒子約拿達來迎接他,耶戶問他安,對他說:「你誠心待我像我誠心待你嗎?」約拿達回答說:「是。」耶戶說:「若是這樣,你向我伸手」,他就伸手;耶戶拉他上車。16耶戶說:「你和我同去,看我為耶和華怎樣熱心」;於是請他坐在車上,17到了撒馬利亞,就把撒馬利亞的亞哈家剩下的人都殺了,直到滅盡,正如耶和華對以利亞所說的。
15Now when he had gone from there, he encountered Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him; and he greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart right, just as my heart is with your heart?” And Jehonadab answered, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, give me your hand.” And he gave him his hand, and he pulled him up to him into the chariot. 16Then he said, “Come with me and see my zeal for the LORD.” So he had him ride in his chariot. 17When he came to Samaria, he killed all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, until he had eliminated them, in accordance with the word of the LORD which He spoke to Elijah.
Jehu Destroys Baal Worshipers
18耶戶招聚眾民,對他們說:「亞哈事奉巴力還冷淡,耶戶卻更熱心。19現在我要給巴力獻大祭。應當叫巴力的眾先知和一切拜巴力的人,並巴力的眾祭司,都到我這裏來,不可缺少一個;凡不來的必不得活。」耶戶這樣行,是用詭計要殺盡拜巴力的人。20耶戶說:「要為巴力宣告嚴肅會!」於是宣告了。21耶戶差人走遍以色列地;凡拜巴力的人都來齊了,沒有一個不來的。他們進了巴力廟,巴力廟中從前邊直到後邊都滿了人。22耶戶吩咐掌管禮服的人說:「拿出禮服來,給一切拜巴力的人穿。」他就拿出禮服來給了他們。23耶戶和利甲的兒子約拿達進了巴力廟,對拜巴力的人說:「你們察看察看,在你們這裏不可有耶和華的僕人,只可容留拜巴力的人。」24耶戶和約拿達進去,獻平安祭和燔祭。耶戶先安派八十人在廟外,吩咐說:「我將這些人交在你們手中,若有一人脫逃,誰放的必叫他償命!」
18Then Jehu gathered all the people and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little; Jehu will serve him much. 19“Now, summon to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshipers and all his priests; let no one go missing, because I have a great sacrifice for Baal; whoever is missing shall not live.” But Jehu did it in deception, in order to eliminate the worshipers of Baal. 20And Jehu said, “Proclaim a holy assembly for Baal.” And they proclaimed it. 21Then Jehu sent word throughout Israel, and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a person left who did not come. And when they entered the house of Baal, the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other. 22And he said to the one who was in charge of the wardrobe, “Bring out garments for all the worshipers of Baal.” So he brought out the garments for them. 23Then Jehu entered the house of Baal with Jehonadab the son of Rechab; and he said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search carefully and see to it that there is here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but only the worshipers of Baal.” 24Then they entered to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings.
Now Jehu had stationed for himself eighty men outside, and he had said, “The one who allows any of the men whom I bring into your hands to escape shall give up his life in exchange.”
Now Jehu had stationed for himself eighty men outside, and he had said, “The one who allows any of the men whom I bring into your hands to escape shall give up his life in exchange.”
25耶戶獻完了燔祭,就出來吩咐護衛兵和眾軍長說:「你們進去殺他們,不容一人出來!」護衛兵和軍長就用刀殺他們,將屍首拋出去,便到巴力廟的城去了,26將巴力廟中的柱像都拿出來燒了;27毀壞了巴力柱像,拆毀了巴力廟作為廁所,直到今日。
25Then it came about, as soon as he had finished offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the royal officers, “Go in, kill them; let none come out.” So they killed them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the royal officers threw them out, and went to the sanctuary of the house of Baal. 26They brought out the memorial stones of the house of Baal and burned them. 27They also tore down the memorial stone of Baal and tore down the house of Baal, and made it a latrine as it is to this day.
28這樣,耶戶在以色列中滅了巴力。29只是耶戶不離開尼八的兒子耶羅波安使以色列人陷在罪裏的那罪,就是拜伯特利和但的金牛犢。30耶和華對耶戶說:「因你辦好我眼中看為正的事,照我的心意待亞哈家,你的子孫必接續你坐以色列的國位,直到四代。」31只是耶戶不盡心遵守耶和華─以色列神的律法,不離開耶羅波安使以色列人陷在罪裏的那罪。
28So Jehu eradicated Baal from Israel. 29However, as for the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, into which he misled Israel, from these Jehu did not desist, including the golden calves that were at Bethel and at Dan. 30Yet the LORD said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in performing what is right in My eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab in accordance with everything that was in My heart, your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.” 31But Jehu was not careful to walk in the Law of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart; he did not desist from the sins of Jeroboam, into which he misled Israel.
Jehoahaz Succeeds Jehu
32在那些日子,耶和華才割裂以色列國,使哈薛攻擊以色列的境界,33乃是約但河東、基列全地,從靠近亞嫩谷邊的亞羅珥起,就是基列和巴珊的迦得人、流便人、瑪拿西人之地。34耶戶其餘的事,凡他所行的和他的勇力都寫在以色列諸王記上。35耶戶與他列祖同睡,葬在撒馬利亞;他兒子約哈斯接續他作王。36耶戶在撒馬利亞作以色列王二十八年。
32In those days the LORD began to cut off pieces from Israel; and Hazael defeated them throughout the territory of Israel: 33from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, the Reubenites, and the Manassites; from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, that is, Gilead and Bashan. 34Now as for the rest of the acts of Jehu and everything that he did and all his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 35And Jehu lay down with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And his son Jehoahaz became king in his place. 36So the time which Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
