1ΚΑΙ Ἑλισαιὲ ὁ προφήτης ἐκάλεσεν ἕνα τῶν υἱῶν τῶν προφητῶν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ζῶσαι τὴν ὀσφύν σου καὶ λαβὲ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ἐλαίου τούτου ἐν τῇ χειρί σου καὶ δεῦρο εἰς Ρεμμὼθ Γαλαάδ·
1Now Elisha the prophet summoned one of the sons of the prophets and said to him, “Tuck your cloak under your belt, take this flask of oil, and go to Ramoth-gilead.
2καὶ εἰσελεύσῃ ἐκεῖ καὶ ὄψῃ ἐκεῖ Ἰοὺ υἱὸν Ἰωσαφὰτ υἱοῦ Ναμεσσὶ καὶ εἰσελεύσῃ καὶ ἀναστήσεις αὐτὸν ἐκ μέσου τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰσάξεις αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ ταμιεῖον ἐν ταμιείῳ·
2When you arrive, look for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. Go in, get him away from his companions, and take him to an inner room.
3καὶ λήψῃ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ἐλαίου καὶ ἐπιχεεῖς ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἰπόν· τάδε λέγει Κύριος· κέχρικά σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἀνοίξεις τὴν θύρα καὶ φεύξῃ καὶ οὐ μενεῖς.
3Then take the flask of oil, pour it on his head, and declare, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’ Then open the door and run. Do not delay!”
4καὶ ἐπορεύθη τὸ παιδάριον ὁ προφήτης εἰς Ρεμμὼθ Γαλαὰδ
4So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead,
5καὶ εἰσῆλθε, καὶ ἰδοὺ οἱ ἄρχοντες τῆς δυνάμεως ἐκάθηντο, καὶ εἶπε· λόγος μοι πρὸς σέ, ὁ ἄρχων. καὶ εἶπεν Ἰού· πρὸς τίνα ἐκ πάντων ἡμῶν; καὶ εἶπε· πρὸς σέ, ὁ ἄρχων.
5and when he arrived, the army commanders were sitting there. “I have a message for you, commander,” he said. “For which of us?” asked Jehu. “For you, commander,” he replied.
6καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον, καὶ ἐπέχεε τὸ ἔλαιον ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραήλ· κέχρικά σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ λαὸν Κυρίου ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραήλ,
6So Jehu got up and went into the house, where the young prophet poured the oil on his head and declared, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anoint you king over the LORD’s people Israel.
7καὶ ἐξολοθρεύσεις τὸν οἶκον Ἀχαὰβ τοῦ κυρίου σου ἐκ προσώπου μου καὶ ἐκδικήσεις τὰ αἵματα τῶν δούλων μου τῶν προφητῶν καὶ τὰ αἵματα πάντων τῶν δούλων Κυρίου ἐκ χειρὸς Ἰεζάβελ
7And you are to strike down the house of your master Ahab, so that I may avenge the blood of My servants the prophets and the blood of all the servants of the LORD shed by the hand of Jezebel.
8καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς ὅλου τοῦ οἴκου Ἀχαὰβ καὶ ἐξολοθρεύσεις τῷ οἴκῳ Ἀχαὰβ οὐροῦντα πρὸς τοῖχον καὶ συνεχόμενον καὶ ἐγκαταλελειμμένον ἐν Ἰσραήλ·
8The whole house of Ahab will perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, both slave and free, in Israel.
9καὶ δώσω τὸν οἶκον Ἀχαὰβ ὡς τὸν οἶκον Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ναβὰτ καὶ ὡς τὸν οἶκον Βαασὰ υἱοῦ Ἀχιά·
9I will make the house of Ahab like the houses of Jeroboam son of Nebat and Baasha son of Ahijah.
10καὶ τὴν Ἰεζάβελ καταφάγονται οἱ κύνες ἐν τῇ μερίδι Ἰεζράελ, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ θάπτων. καὶ ἤνοιξε τὴν θύραν καὶ ἔφυγε.
10And on the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour Jezebel, and there will be no one to bury her.’” Then the young prophet opened the door and ran.
11καὶ Ἰοὺ ἐξῆλθε πρὸς τοὺς παῖδας τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ· εἰρήνη; τί ὅτι εἰσῆλθεν ὁ ἐπίληπτος οὗτος πρὸς σέ; καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὑμεῖς οἴδατε τὸν ἄνδρα καὶ τὴν ἀδολεσχίαν αὐτοῦ.
11When Jehu went out to the servants of his master, they asked, “Is everything all right? Why did this madman come to you?” “You know his kind and their babble,” he replied.
12καὶ εἶπον· ἄδικον· ἀπάγγειλον δὴ ἡμῖν. καὶ εἶπεν Ἰοὺ πρὸς αὐτούς· οὕτω καὶ οὕτω ἐλάλησε πρός με λέγων· τάδε λέγει Κύριος· κέχρικά σε εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
12“That is a lie!” they said. “Tell us now!” So Jehu answered, “He talked to me about this and that, and he said, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”
13καὶ ἀκούσαντες ἔσπευσαν καὶ ἔλαβεν ἕκαστος τὸ ἱμάτιον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθηκαν ὑποκάτω αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ γαρὲμ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ἐν κερατίνῃ καὶ εἶπαν· ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰού.
13Quickly, each man took his garment and put it under Jehu on the bare steps. Then they blew the ram’s horn and proclaimed, “Jehu is king!”
14καὶ συνεστράφη Ἰοὺ υἱὸς Ἰωσαφὰτ υἱοῦ Ναμεσσὶ πρὸς Ἰωρὰμ καὶ Ἰωρὰμ αὐτὸς ἐφύλασσεν ἐν Ρεμμὼθ Γαλαάδ, αὐτὸς καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ προσώπου Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας,
14Thus Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram and all Israel had been defending Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Aram,
15καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν Ἰωρὰμ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἰατρευθῆναι ἐν Ἰεζράελ ἀπὸ τῶν πληγῶν, ὧν ἔπαισαν αὐτὸν οἱ Σύριοι ἐν τῷ πολεμεῖν αὐτὸν μετὰ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας· καὶ εἶπεν Ἰού· εἰ ἔστι ψυχὴ ὑμῶν μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, μὴ ἐξελθέτω ἐκ τῆς πόλεως διαπεφευγὼς τοῦ πορευθῆναι καὶ ἀπαγγεῖλαι ἐν Ἰεζράελ.
15but King Joram had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he had suffered at the hands of the Arameans in the battle against Hazael their king.) So Jehu said, “If you commanders wish to make me king, then do not let anyone escape from the city to go and tell it in Jezreel.”
16καὶ ἵππευσε καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰοὺ καὶ κατέβη εἰς Ἰεζράελ, ὅτι Ἰωρὰμ βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐθαραπεύετο ἐν τῷ Ἰεζράελ ἀπὸ τῶν τοξευμάτων, ὧν κατετόξευσαν αὐτὸν οἱ Ἀραμὶν ἐν τῇ Ραμμὰθ ἐν τῷ πολέμῳ μετὰ Ἀζαὴλ βασιλέως Συρίας, ὅτι αὐτὸς δυνατὸς καὶ ἀνὴρ δυνάμεως, καὶ Ὀχοζίας βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα κατέβη ἰδεῖν τὸν Ἰωράμ.
16Then Jehu got into his chariot and went to Jezreel, because Joram was laid up there and Ahaziah king of Judah had gone down to see him.
17καὶ ὁ σκοπὸς ἀνέβη ἐπὶ τὸν πύργον Ἰεζράελ καὶ εἶδε τὸν κονιορτὸν Ἰοὺ ἐν τῷ παραγίνεσθαι αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπε· κονιορτὸν ἐγὼ βλέπω. καὶ εἶπεν Ἰωράμ· λαβὲ ἐπιβάτην καὶ ἀπόστειλον ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰπάτω, εἰ εἰρήνη.
17Now the watchman standing on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu’s troops approaching, and he called out, “I see a company of troops!” “Choose a rider,” Joram commanded. “Send him out to meet them and ask, ‘Have you come in peace?’”
18καὶ ἐπορεύθη ἐπιβάτης ἵππου εἰς ἀπαντὴν αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπε· τάδε λέγει ὁ βασιλεύς, εἰ εἰρήνη. καὶ εἶπεν Ἰού· τί σοι καὶ εἰρήνη; ἐπίστρεφε εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω μου. καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν ὁ σκοπὸς λέγων· ἦλθεν ὁ ἄγγελος ἕως αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἀνέστρεψε.
18So a horseman rode off to meet Jehu and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.” And the watchman reported, “The messenger reached them, but he is not coming back.”
19καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἐπιβάτην ἵππου δεύτερον, καὶ ἦλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπε· τάδε λέγει ὁ βασιλεύς· εἰ εἰρήνη. καὶ εἶπεν Ἰού· τί σοι καὶ εἰρήνη; ἐπιστρέφου εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω μου.
19So the king sent out a second horseman, who went to them and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.”
20καὶ ἀπήγγειλεν ὁ σκοπὸς λέγων· ἦλθεν ἕως αὐτῶν καὶ οὐκ ἀνέστρεψε· καὶ ὁ ἄγων ἦγε τὸν Ἰοὺ υἱὸν Ναμεσσί, ὅτι ἐν παραλλαγῇ ἐγένετο.
20Again the watchman reported, “He reached them, but he is not coming back. And the charioteer is driving like Jehu son of Nimshi —he is driving like a madman!”
21καὶ εἶπεν Ἰωράμ· ζεῦξον· καὶ ἔζευξεν ἅρμα. καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἰωρὰμ βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ καὶ Ὀχοζίας βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα, ἀνὴρ ἐν τῷ ἅρματι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξῆλθον εἰς ἀπαντὴν Ἰοὺ καὶ εὗρον αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ μερίδι Ναβουθαὶ τοῦ Ἰεζραηλίτου.
21“Harness!” Joram shouted, and they harnessed his chariot. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah set out, each in his own chariot, and met Jehu on the property of Naboth the Jezreelite.
22καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδεν Ἰωρὰμ τὸν Ἰού, καὶ εἶπεν· εἰ εἰρήνη Ἰού; καὶ εἶπεν Ἰού· τί εἰρήνη; ἔτι αἱ πορνεῖαι Ἰεζάβελ τῆς μητρός σου καὶ τὰ φάρμακα αὐτῆς τὰ πολλά.
22When Joram saw Jehu, he asked, “Have you come in peace, Jehu?” “How can there be peace,” he replied, “as long as the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?”
23καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν Ἰωρὰμ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ τοῦ φυγεῖν καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ὀχοζίαν· δόλος, Ὀχοζία.
23Joram turned around and fled, calling out to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
24καὶ ἔπλησεν Ἰοὺ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ τόξῳ καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν Ἰωρὰμ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν βραχιόνων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξῆλθε τὸ βέλος αὐτοῦ διὰ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔκαμψεν ἐπὶ τὰ γόνατα αὐτοῦ.
24Then Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow pierced his heart, and he slumped down in his chariot.
25καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Βαδεκὰρ τὸν τριστάτην αὐτοῦ· ρῖψον αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ μερίδι ἀγροῦ Ναβουθαὶ τοῦ Ἰεζραηλίτου· ὅτι μνημονεύω, ἐγὼ καὶ σὺ ἐπιβεβηκότες ἐπὶ ζεύγη ὀπίσω Ἀχαὰβ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ Κύριος ἔλαβεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸ λῆμμα τοῦτο λέγων·
25And Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Pick him up and throw him into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. For remember that when you and I were riding together behind his father Ahab, the LORD lifted up this burden against him:
26εἰ μὴ τὰ αἵματα Ναβουθαὶ καὶ τὰ αἵματα τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ εἶδον ἐχθές, φησὶ Κύριος, καὶ ἀνταποδώσω αὐτῷ ἐν τῇ μερίδι ταύτῃ, φησὶ Κύριος· καὶ νῦν ἄρας δὴ ρῖψον αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ μερίδι κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου.
26‘As surely as I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons yesterday, declares the LORD, so will I repay you on this plot of ground, declares the LORD.’ Now then, according to the word of the LORD, pick him up and throw him on the plot of ground.”
27καὶ Ὀχοζίας βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα εἶδε καὶ ἔφυγεν ὁδὸν Βαιθαγγάν, καὶ ἐδίωξεν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ Ἰοὺ καὶ εἶπε· καί γε αὐτόν· καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν πρὸς τῷ ἅρματι ἐν τῷ ἀναβαίνειν Γαΐ, ἥ ἐστιν Ἰεβλαάμ, καὶ ἔφυγεν εἰς Μαγεδδὼ καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐκεῖ.
27When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled up the road toward Beth-haggan. And Jehu pursued him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam, and he fled to Megiddo and died there.
28καὶ ἐπεβίβασαν αὐτὸν οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ ἅρμα καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ τάφῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν πόλει Δαυίδ.
28Then his servants carried him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his fathers in his tomb in the City of David.
29καὶ ἐν ἔτει ἑνδεκάτῳ Ἰωρὰμ βασιλέως Ἰσραὴλ ἐβασίλευσεν Ὀχοζίας ἐπὶ Ἰούδαν.
29(In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had become king over Judah.)
30καὶ ἦλθεν Ἰοὺ ἐπὶ Ἰεζράελ· καὶ Ἰεζάβελ ἤκουσε καὶ ἐστιμίσατο τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῆς καὶ ἠγάθυνε τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῆς καὶ διέκυψε διὰ τῆς θυρίδος.
30Now when Jehu arrived in Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it. So she painted her eyes, adorned her head, and looked down from a window.
31καὶ Ἰοὺ εἰσεπορεύετο ἐν τῇ πόλει καὶ εἶπεν· εἰ εἰρήνη, Ζαμβρὶ ὁ φονευτὴς τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ;
31And as Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you come in peace, O Zimri, murderer of your master?”
32καὶ ἐπῆρε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν θυρίδα καὶ εἶδεν αὐτὴν καὶ εἶπε· τί εἶ σύ; κατάβηθι μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ. καὶ κατέκυψαν πρὸς αὐτὸν δύο εὐνοῦχοι·
32He looked up at the window and called out, “Who is on my side? Who?” And two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
33καὶ εἶπε· κυλίσατε αὐτήν, καὶ ἐκύλισαν αὐτήν, καὶ ἐρραντίσθη τοῦ αἵματος αὐτῆς πρὸς τὸν τοῖχον καὶ πρὸς τοὺς ἵππους, καὶ συνεπάτησαν αὐτήν.
33“Throw her down!” yelled Jehu. So they threw her down, and her blood splattered on the wall and on the horses as they trampled her underfoot.
34καὶ εἰσῆλθε καὶ ἔφαγε καὶ ἔπιε καὶ εἶπεν· ἐπισκέψασθε δὴ τὴν κατηραμένην ταύτην καὶ θάψατε αὐτήν, ὅτι θυγάτηρ βασιλέως ἐστί.
34Then Jehu went in and ate and drank. “Take care of this cursed woman,” he said, “and bury her, for she was the daughter of a king.”
35καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν θάψαι αὐτὴν καὶ οὐχ εὗρον ἐν αὐτῇ ἄλλο τι ἢ τὸ κρανίον καὶ οἱ πόδες καὶ τὰ ἴχνη τῶν χειρῶν.
35But when they went out to bury her, they found nothing but her skull, her feet, and the palms of her hands.
36καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν καὶ ἀνήγγειλαν αὐτῷ, καὶ εἶπε· λόγος Κυρίου, ὃν ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ Ἠλιοὺ τοῦ Θεσβίτου λέγων· ἐν τῇ μερίδι Ἰεζράελ καταφάγονται οἱ κύνες τὰς σάρκας Ἰεζάβελ,
36So they went back and told Jehu, who replied, “This is the word of the LORD, which He spoke through His servant Elijah the Tishbite: ‘On the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour the flesh of Jezebel.
37καὶ ἔσται τὸ θνησιμαῖον Ἰεζάβελ ὡς κοπρία ἐπὶ προσώπου τοῦ ἀγροῦ ἐν τῇ μερίδι Ἰεζράελ, ὥστε μὴ εἰπεῖν αὐτοὺς Ἰεζάβελ.
37And Jezebel’s body will lie like dung in the field on the plot of ground at Jezreel, so that no one can say: This is Jezebel.’”
