2 Kings 9

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 The prophet Elisha called one of the guild prophets and said to him: "Gird your loins, take this flask of oil with you, and go to Ramoth-gilead.	1 και ελισαιε ο προφητης εκαλεσεν ενα των υιων των προφητων και ειπεν αυτω ζωσαι την οσφυν σου και λαβε τον φακον του ελαιου τουτου εν τη χειρι σου και δευρο εις ρεμμωθ γαλααδ
2 When you get there, look for Jehu, son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi. Enter and take him away from his companions into an inner chamber.	2 και εισελευση εκει και οψη εκει ιου υιον ιωσαφατ υιου ναμεσσι και εισελευση και αναστησεις αυτον εκ μεσου των αδελφων αυτου και εισαξεις αυτον εις το ταμιειον εν τω ταμιειω
3 From the flask you have, pour oil on his head, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: I anoint you king over Israel.' Then open the door and flee without delay."	3 και λημψη τον φακον του ελαιου και επιχεεις επι την κεφαλην αυτου και ειπον ταδε λεγει κυριος κεχρικα σε εις βασιλεα επι ισραηλ και ανοιξεις την θυραν και φευξη και ου μενεις
4 The young man (the guild prophet) went to Ramoth-gilead.	4 και επορευθη το παιδαριον ο προφητης εις ρεμμωθ γαλααδ
5 When he arrived, the commanders of the army were in session. "I have a message for you, commander," he said. "For which one of us?" asked Jehu. "For you, commander," he answered.	5 και εισηλθεν και ιδου οι αρχοντες της δυναμεως εκαθηντο και ειπεν λογος μοι προς σε ο αρχων και ειπεν ιου προς τινα εκ παντων ημων και ειπεν προς σε ο αρχων
6 Jehu got up and went into the house. Then the young man poured the oil on his head and said, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: 'I anoint you king over the people of the LORD, over Israel.	6 και ανεστη και εισηλθεν εις τον οικον και επεχεεν το ελαιον επι την κεφαλην αυτου και ειπεν αυτω ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ κεχρικα σε εις βασιλεα επι λαον κυριου επι τον ισραηλ
7 You shall destroy the house of Ahab your master; thus will I avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the other servants of the LORD shed by Jezebel,	7 και εξολεθρευσεις τον οικον αχααβ του κυριου σου εκ προσωπου μου και εκδικησεις τα αιματα των δουλων μου των προφητων και τα αιματα παντων των δουλων κυριου εκ χειρος ιεζαβελ
8 and by all the rest of the family of Ahab. I will cut off every male in Ahab's line, whether slave or freeman in Israel.	8 και εκ χειρος ολου του οικου αχααβ και εξολεθρευσεις τω οικω αχααβ ουρουντα προς τοιχον και συνεχομενον και εγκαταλελειμμενον εν ισραηλ
9 I will deal with the house of Ahab as I dealt with the house of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, and with the house of Baasha, son of Ahijah.	9 και δωσω τον οικον αχααβ ως τον οικον ιεροβοαμ υιου ναβατ και ως τον οικον βαασα υιου αχια
10 Dogs shall devour Jezebel at the confines of Jezreel, so that no one can bury her.'" Then he opened the door and fled.	10 και την ιεζαβελ καταφαγονται οι κυνες εν τη μεριδι ιεζραελ και ουκ εστιν ο θαπτων και ηνοιξεν την θυραν και εφυγεν
11 When Jehu rejoined his master's servants, they asked him, "Is all well? Why did that madman come to you?" You know that kind of man and his talk, he replied.	11 και ιου εξηλθεν προς τους παιδας του κυριου αυτου και ειπον αυτω ει ειρηνη τι οτι εισηλθεν ο επιλημπτος ουτος προς σε και ειπεν αυτοις υμεις οιδατε τον ανδρα και την αδολεσχιαν αυτου
12 But they said, "Not at all! Come, tell us." So he told them what the young man had said to him, and finally, "Thus says the LORD: 'I anoint you king over Israel.'"	12 και ειπον αδικον απαγγειλον δη ημιν και ειπεν ιου προς αυτους ουτως και ουτως ελαλησεν προς με λεγων ταδε λεγει κυριος κεχρικα σε εις βασιλεα επι ισραηλ
13 At once each took his garment, spread it under Jehu on the bare steps, blew the trumpet, and cried out, "Jehu is king!"	13 και ακουσαντες εσπευσαν και ελαβον εκαστος το ιματιον αυτου και εθηκαν υποκατω αυτου επι γαρεμ των αναβαθμων και εσαλπισαν εν κερατινη και ειπον εβασιλευσεν ιου
14 Thus Jehu, son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, formed a conspiracy against Joram. Joram, with all Israel, had been besieging Ramoth-gilead against Hazael, king of Aram,	14 και συνεστραφη ιου υιος ιωσαφατ υιου ναμεσσι προς ιωραμ και ιωραμ αυτος εφυλασσεν εν ρεμμωθ γαλααδ αυτος και πας ισραηλ απο προσωπου αζαηλ βασιλεως συριας
15 but had returned to Jezreel to be healed of the wounds the Arameans had inflicted on him in the battle against Hazael, king of Aram. "If you are truly with me," Jehu said, "see that no one escapes from the city to report in Jezreel."	15 και απεστρεψεν ιωραμ ο βασιλευς ιατρευθηναι εν ιεζραελ απο των πληγων ων επαισαν αυτον οι συροι εν τω πολεμειν αυτον μετα αζαηλ βασιλεως συριας και ειπεν ιου ει εστιν η ψυχη υμων μετ' εμου μη εξελθετω εκ της πολεως διαπεφευγως του πορευθηναι και απαγγειλαι εν ιεζραελ
16 Then Jehu mounted his chariot and drove to Jezreel, where Joram lay ill and Ahaziah, king of Judah, had come to visit him.	16 και ιππευσεν και επορευθη ιου και κατεβη εις ιεζραελ οτι ιωραμ βασιλευς ισραηλ εθεραπευετο εν ιεζραελ απο των τοξευματων ων κατετοξευσαν αυτον οι αραμιν εν τη ραμμαθ εν τω πολεμω μετα αζαηλ βασιλεως συριας οτι αυτος δυνατος και ανηρ δυναμεως και οχοζιας βασιλευς ιουδα κατεβη ιδειν τον ιωραμ
17 The watchman standing on the tower in Jezreel saw the troop of Jehu coming and reported, "I see chariots." "Get a driver," Joram said, "and send him to meet them and to ask whether all is well."	17 και ο σκοπος ανεβη επι τον πυργον εν ιεζραελ και ειδεν τον κονιορτον ιου εν τω παραγινεσθαι αυτον και ειπεν κονιορτον εγω βλεπω και ειπεν ιωραμ λαβε επιβατην και αποστειλον εμπροσθεν αυτων και ειπατω ει ειρηνη
18 So a driver went out to meet him and said, "The king asks whether all is well." "What does it matter to you how things are?" Jehu said. "Get behind me." The watchman reported to the king, "The messenger has reached them, but is not returning."	18 και επορευθη επιβατης ιππου εις απαντην αυτων και ειπεν ταδε λεγει ο βασιλευς ει ειρηνη και ειπεν ιου τι σοι και ειρηνη επιστρεφε εις τα οπισω μου και απηγγειλεν ο σκοπος λεγων ηλθεν ο αγγελος εως αυτων και ουκ ανεστρεψεν
19 Joram sent a second driver, who went to them and said, "The king asks whether all is well." "What does it matter to you how things are?" Jehu replied. "Get behind me."	19 και απεστειλεν επιβατην ιππου δευτερον και ηλθεν προς αυτον και ειπεν ταδε λεγει ο βασιλευς ει ειρηνη και ειπεν ιου τι σοι και ειρηνη επιστρεφου εις τα οπισω μου
20 The watchman reported, "The messenger has reached them, but is not returning. The driving is like that of Jehu, son of Nimshi, in its fury."	20 και απηγγειλεν ο σκοπος λεγων ηλθεν εως αυτων και ουκ ανεστρεψεν και ο αγων ηγεν τον ιου υιον ναμεσσιου οτι εν παραλλαγη εγενετο
21 "Prepare my chariot," said Joram. When they had done so, Joram, king of Israel, and Ahaziah, king of Judah, set out, each in his own chariot, to meet Jehu. They reached him near the field of Naboth the Jezreelite.	21 και ειπεν ιωραμ ζευξον και εζευξεν αρμα και εξηλθεν ιωραμ βασιλευς ισραηλ και οχοζιας βασιλευς ιουδα ανηρ εν τω αρματι αυτου και εξηλθον εις απαντην ιου και ευρον αυτον εν τη μεριδι ναβουθαι του ιεζραηλιτου
22 When Joram recognized Jehu, he asked, "Is all well, Jehu?" "How can all be well," Jehu replied, "as long as the many fornications and witchcrafts of your mother Jezebel continue?"	22 και εγενετο ως ειδεν ιωραμ τον ιου και ειπεν ει ειρηνη ιου και ειπεν ιου τι ειρηνη ετι αι πορνειαι ιεζαβελ της μητρος σου και τα φαρμακα αυτης τα πολλα
23 Joram reined about and fled, crying to Ahaziah, "Treason, Ahaziah!"	23 και επεστρεψεν ιωραμ τας χειρας αυτου του φυγειν και ειπεν προς οχοζιαν δολος οχοζια
24 But Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders, so that the arrow went through his heart and he collapsed in his chariot.	24 και επλησεν ιου την χειρα αυτου εν τω τοξω και επαταξεν τον ιωραμ ανα μεσον των βραχιονων αυτου και εξηλθεν το βελος δια της καρδιας αυτου και εκαμψεν επι τα γονατα αυτου
25 Then Jehu said to his adjutant Bidkar, "Take him and throw him into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. For I remember that when we were driving teams behind his father Ahab, the LORD delivered this oracle against him:	25 και ειπεν ιου προς βαδεκαρ τον τριστατην αυτου ριψον αυτον εν τη μεριδι αγρου ναβουθαι του ιεζραηλιτου οτι μνημονευω εγω και συ επιβεβηκοτες επι ζευγη οπισω αχααβ του πατρος αυτου και κυριος ελαβεν επ' αυτον το λημμα τουτο λεγων
26 'As surely as I saw yesterday the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons,' says the LORD, 'I will repay you for it in that very plot of ground, says the LORD.' So now take him into this plot of ground, in keeping with the word of the LORD."	26 ει μη μετα των αιματων ναβουθαι και τα αιματα των υιων αυτου ειδον εχθες φησιν κυριος και ανταποδωσω αυτω εν τη μεριδι ταυτη φησιν κυριος και νυν αρας δη ριψον αυτον εν τη μεριδι κατα το ρημα κυριου
27 Seeing what was happening, Ahaziah, king of Judah, fled toward Beth-haggan. Jehu pursued him, shouting, "Kill him too!" And they pierced him as he rode through the pass of Gur near Ibleam. He continued his flight as far as Megiddo and died there.	27 και οχοζιας βασιλευς ιουδα ειδεν και εφυγεν οδον βαιθαγγαν και εδιωξεν οπισω αυτου ιου και ειπεν και γε αυτον και επαταξεν αυτον εν τω αρματι εν τω αναβαινειν γαι η εστιν ιεβλααμ και εφυγεν εις μαγεδδων και απεθανεν εκει
28 His servants brought him in a chariot to Jerusalem and buried him in the tomb of his ancestors in the City of David.	28 και επεβιβασαν αυτον οι παιδες αυτου επι το αρμα και ηγαγον αυτον εις ιερουσαλημ και εθαψαν αυτον εν τω ταφω αυτου εν πολει δαυιδ
29 Ahaziah had become king of Judah in the eleventh year of Joram, son of Ahab.	29 και εν ετει ενδεκατω ιωραμ βασιλεως ισραηλ εβασιλευσεν οχοζιας επι ιουδαν
30 When Jezebel learned that Jehu had arrived in Jezreel, she shadowed her eyes, adorned her hair, and looked down from her window.	30 και ηλθεν ιου εις ιεζραελ και ιεζαβελ ηκουσεν και εστιμισατο τους οφθαλμους αυτης και ηγαθυνεν την κεφαλην αυτης και διεκυψεν δια της θυριδος
31 As Jehu came through the gate, she cried out, "Is all well, Zimri, murderer of your master?"	31 και ιου εισεπορευετο εν τη πολει και ειπεν ει ειρηνη ζαμβρι ο φονευτης του κυριου αυτου
32 Jehu looked up to the window and shouted, "Who is on my side? Anyone?" At this, two or three eunuchs looked down toward him.	32 και επηρεν το προσωπον αυτου εις την θυριδα και ειδεν αυτην και ειπεν τις ει συ καταβηθι μετ' εμου και κατεκυψαν προς αυτον δυο ευνουχοι
33 "Throw her down," he ordered. They threw her down, and some of her blood spurted against the wall and against the horses. Jehu rode in over her body	33 και ειπεν κυλισατε αυτην και εκυλισαν αυτην και ερραντισθη του αιματος αυτης προς τον τοιχον και προς τους ιππους και συνεπατησαν αυτην
34 and, after eating and drinking, he said: "Attend to that accursed woman and bury her; after all, she was a king's daughter."	34 και εισηλθεν ιου και εφαγεν και επιεν και ειπεν επισκεψασθε δη την κατηραμενην ταυτην και θαψατε αυτην οτι θυγατηρ βασιλεως εστιν
35 But when they went to bury her, they found nothing of her but the skull, the feet, and the hands.	35 και επορευθησαν θαψαι αυτην και ουχ ευρον εν αυτη αλλο τι η το κρανιον και οι ποδες και τα ιχνη των χειρων
36 They returned to Jehu, and when they told him, he said, "This is the sentence which the LORD pronounced through his servant Elijah the Tishbite: 'In the confines of Jezreel dogs shall eat the flesh of Jezebel.	36 και επεστρεψαν και ανηγγειλαν αυτω και ειπεν λογος κυριου ον ελαλησεν εν χειρι δουλου αυτου ηλιου του θεσβιτου λεγων εν τη μεριδι ιεζραελ καταφαγονται οι κυνες τας σαρκας ιεζαβελ
37 The corpse of Jezebel shall be like dung in the field in the confines of Jezreel, so that no one can say: This was Jezebel.'"	37 και εσται το θνησιμαιον ιεζαβελ ως κοπρια επι προσωπου του αγρου εν τη μεριδι ιεζραελ ωστε μη ειπειν αυτους ιεζαβελ
