Chapter9
1TheprophetElishacalledoneoftheguildprophetsandsaidtohim:＂Girdyourloins,takethisflaskofoilwithyou,andgotoRamoth-gilead.
那时，先知厄里叟叫一个先知弟子来，对他说：＂你束上腰，手里拿着这瓶油，往辣摩特基肋阿得去，
2Whenyougetthere,lookforJehu,sonofJehoshaphat,sonofNimshi.Enterandtakehimawayfromhiscompanionsintoaninnerchamber.
一到了那里，就去求见尼默史的孙子约沙法特的儿子耶胡；得见后，叫他离开同僚，领踢进入一间内室，
3Fromtheflaskyouhave,pouroilonhishead,andsay,'ThussaystheLORD:IanointyoukingoverIsrael.'Thenopenthedoorandfleewithoutdelay.＂
将这瓶油倒在他的头上说：上主这样说：我傅你为以色列王。然后，开门逃走，不要逗留。＂
4Theyoungman(theguildprophet)wenttoRamoth-gilead.
那青年人，即那青年先知就往辣摩特基肋阿得去了。
5Whenhearrived,thecommandersofthearmywereinsession.＂Ihaveamessageforyou,commander,＂hesaid.＂Forwhichoneofus?＂askedJehu.＂Foryou,commander,＂heanswered.
他到了那里，看见众将军都在坐，青年人遂说：＂将军，我有话对你说。＂耶胡问说：＂我们中，你要对那一个说话？＂他答说：＂将军，就是你。＂
6Jehugotupandwentintothehouse.Thentheyoungmanpouredtheoilonhisheadandsaid,＂ThussaystheLORD,theGodofIsrael:'IanointyoukingoverthepeopleoftheLORD,overIsrael.
耶胡站起来，进了内室，那青年人就将油倒在他头上，对他说：＂上主以色列的天主这样说：我傅你为上主的人民以色列的君王。
71YoushalldestroythehouseofAhabyourmaster;thuswillIavengethebloodofmyservantstheprophets,andthebloodofalltheotherservantsoftheLORDshedbyJezebel,
你要消灭你主上阿哈布的家，使我在依则贝耳身上，为我的仆人先知和上主的一切仆人报血仇。
8andbyalltherestofthefamilyofAhab.IwillcutoffeverymaleinAhab'sline,whetherslaveorfreemaninIsrael.
阿哈布的全家必要丧亡；我要消灭以色列凡属于阿哈布的一切男人，无论是自由的，或不自由的。
9IwilldealwiththehouseofAhabasIdealtwiththehouseofJeroboam,sonofNebat,andwiththehouseofBaasha,sonofAhijah.
我要使阿哈布家像乃巴特的儿子雅洛贝罕家，又像阿希雅的儿子巴厄沙家一样；
10DogsshalldevourJezebelattheconfinesofJezreel,sothatnoonecanburyher.'＂Thenheopenedthedoorandfled.
于依则贝耳，狗要在依次勒耳的田间吞食她，没有人来埋葬。＂那青年人说完，就开门逃走了。
11WhenJehurejoinedhismaster'sservants,theyaskedhim,＂Isallwell?Whydidthatmadmancometoyou?＂Youknowthatkindofmanandhistalk,hereplied.
耶胡出来回到他主上的臣仆那里，他们问他说：＂一切都好吗？那疯子来见你有什么事？＂耶胡答说：＂你们应认识这个人，也知道他说些什么。＂
12Buttheysaid,＂Notatall!Come,tellus.＂Sohetoldthemwhattheyoungmanhadsaidtohim,andfinally,＂ThussaystheLORD:‘IanointyoukingoverIsrael.'＂
他们说：＂定说些胡话！请给我们说说！＂耶胡遂说：＂他如此如此告诉我说：上主这样说：我傅你为以色列王。＂
13Atonceeachtookhisgarment,spreaditunderJehuonthebaresteps,blewthetrumpet,andcriedout,＂Jehuisking!＂
他们一听，急忙将各自己的衣服铺在光台阶他的脚下，吹角喊说：＂耶胡作王了！＂
14ThusJehu,sonofJehoshaphat,sonofNimshi,formedaconspiracyagainstJoram.Joram,withallIsrael,hadbeenbesiegingRamoth-gileadagainstHazael,kingofAram,
尼默史的孙子约沙法特的儿子耶胡于是背叛了耶曷兰。─那时，耶曷兰曾率领全以色列人在辣摩特基肋阿得，对抗阿兰君王哈匝耳。
15buthadreturnedtoJezreeltobehealedofthewoundstheArameanshadinflictedonhiminthebattleagainstHazael,kingofAram.＂Ifyouaretrulywithme,＂Jehusaid,＂seethatnooneescapesfromthecitytoreportinJezreel.＂
但耶曷兰已回了依次勒耳，治疗他与阿兰王哈匝耳交战时，被阿兰人所射的创伤。─耶胡说：「如果这件事合你们的心意，那么就不要让任何人逃出城去，到依次勒耳报信。」
16ThenJehumountedhischariotanddrovetoJezreel,whereJoramlayillandAhaziah,kingofJudah,hadcometovisithim.
耶胡于是亲自驾车去了依次勒耳，因为耶曷兰正在那里卧病未起；犹大王阿哈齐雅也下到那里去探望他。
17ThewatchmanstandingonthetowerinJezreelsawthetroopofJehucomingandreported,＂Iseechariots.＂＂Getadriver,＂Joramsaid,＂andsendhimtomeetthemandtoaskwhetheralliswell.＂
站在依次勒耳堡垒上的守兵，见有耶胡的兵队来到，就喊叫说：＂我看见了一大队人马！＂耶曷兰下令说：＂叫一个骑兵来，派他去探问他们说：都平安吗？＂
18Soadriverwentouttomeethimandsaid,＂Thekingaskswhetheralliswell.＂＂Whatdoesitmattertoyouhowthingsare?＂Jehusaid.＂Getbehindme.＂Thewatchmanreportedtotheking,＂Themessengerhasreachedthem,butisnotreturning.＂
骑兵就去迎接耶胡说：＂王问：都平安吗？＂耶胡答说：＂平安不平安与你何干？转到我后面去！＂守兵随号报告说：＂使者到了他们那里，却没有回来。＂
19Joramsentaseconddriver,whowenttothemandsaid,＂Thekingaskswhetheralliswell.＂＂Whatdoesitmattertoyouhowthingsare?＂Jehureplied.＂Getbehindme.＂
耶曷兰又打发第二个骑兵去，这骑兵到了他们那里说：＂王问：都平安吗？＂耶胡答说：＂平安不平安与你何干？转到我后面去！
20Thewatchmanreported,＂Themessengerhasreachedthem,butisnotreturning.ThedrivingislikethatofJehu,sonofNimshi,initsfury.＂
守兵随后有报告说：他到了他们那里，也没有回来；那驾车法很像尼默史的孙子耶胡的驾驶法，驾得很狂猛。＂
21＂Preparemychariot,＂saidJoram.Whentheyhaddoneso,Joram,kingofIsrael,andAhaziah,kingofJudah,setout,eachinhisownchariot,tomeetJehu.TheyreachedhimnearthefieldofNaboththeJezreelite.
耶曷兰遂即吩咐说：＂套车！＂人就套好他的车。以色列王耶曷兰和犹大王阿哈齐雅出来，各自上车，去迎接耶胡，在依次勒耳人纳波特的庄田那里，迎上了他。
222WhenJoramrecognizedJehu,heasked,＂Isallwell,Jehu?＂＂Howcanallbewell,＂Jehureplied,＂aslongasthemanyfornicationsandwitchcraftsofyourmotherJezebelcontinue?＂
耶曷兰一见耶胡就问说：＂耶胡！都平安吗？＂耶胡回答说：＂你母亲依则贝耳的淫行和妖术那样多，还有什么平安？＂
23Joramreinedaboutandfled,cryingtoAhaziah,＂Treason,Ahaziah!＂
耶曷兰即刻转车逃走，对阿哈齐雅说：＂阿喝齐雅，他反了！＂
24ButJehudrewhisbowandshotJorambetweentheshoulders,sothatthearrowwentthroughhisheartandhecollapsedinhischariot.
耶胡用手拉弓，射中了耶曷兰两臂之间，箭从心窝穿出，耶曷兰就倒在车上。
25ThenJehusaidtohisadjutantBidkar,＂TakehimandthrowhimintothefieldofNaboththeJezreelite.ForIrememberthatwhenweweredrivingteamsbehindhisfatherAhab,theLORDdeliveredthisoracleagainsthim:
耶胡吩咐自己的侍卫彼德卡说：＂将他抬起，丢在依次肋耳人纳波特的庄田里！你该记得：当我你二人一起驾车跟随他父亲阿哈布时，上主即向他宣布了这个神谕：＂
26‘AssurelyasIsawyesterdaythebloodofNabothandthebloodofhissons,'saystheLORD,‘Iwillrepayyouforitinthatveryplotofground,saystheLORD.'Sonowtakehimintothisplotofground,inkeepingwiththewordoftheLORD.＂
昨天我确实看见了纳波特和他儿子们的血，上主的断语；我必要在这块田地里报复你，上主的断语。所以现在，你要照上主的话，将他抬起，丢在这块田地里。＂
27Seeingwhatwashappening,Ahaziah,kingofJudah,fledtowardBeth-haggan.Jehupursuedhim,shouting,＂Killhimtoo!＂AndtheypiercedhimasherodethroughthepassofGurnearIbleam.HecontinuedhisflightasfarasMegiddoanddiedthere.
犹大王阿哈齐雅见了这事，就向贝特干逃去，耶胡追赶他，吩咐说：＂也将他射杀在车上！＂果然，在离依贝肋罕不远的古尔山坡上，把他射伤；他逃到默基多，就死在那里。
28HisservantsbroughthiminachariottoJerusalemandburiedhiminthetombofhisancestorsintheCityofDavid.
他的臣仆用车把他送到耶路撒冷，与祖先葬在达味城，他自己的坟墓里。
29AhaziahhadbecomekingofJudahintheeleventhyearofJoram,sonofAhab.
阿哈齐雅登极为犹大王，是在阿哈布的儿子耶曷兰在位第十一年。
30WhenJezebellearnedthatJehuhadarrivedinJezreel,sheshadowedhereyes,adornedherhair,andlookeddownfromherwindow.
当耶胡来到依次勒耳时，依则贝耳就听说了，遂画眉梳头，从窗户往外眺望，
31AsJehucamethroughthegate,shecriedout,＂Isallwell,Zimri,murdererofyourmaster?＂
见耶胡进城门的时候，她便问说：＂弒杀主上的齐默黎，你平安吗？＂
32Jehulookeduptothewindowandshouted,＂Whoisonmyside?Anyone?＂Atthis,twoorthreeeunuchslookeddowntowardhim.
耶胡举目看那窗户说：＂谁拥护我？谁？＂有两三个太监从窗户里往下看他。
33＂Throwherdown,＂heordered.Theythrewherdown,andsomeofherbloodspurtedagainstthewallandagainstthehorses.Jehurodeinoverherbody
耶胡说：＂把她推下来！＂他们便把她推下来，她的血溅在墙上和马身上；马在她身上踏过。
34and,aftereatinganddrinking,hesaid:＂Attendtothataccursedwomanandburyher;afterall,shewasaking'sdaughter.＂
耶胡进去，吃喝完了，吩咐说：＂你们去料理那可诅咒的女人，将她埋葬，因为她究竟是君王的女儿。＂
35Butwhentheywenttoburyher,theyfoundnothingofherbuttheskull,thefeet,andthehands.
但是，当他们去埋葬她时，只找到了她的头盖、脚和手掌，
36TheyreturnedtoJehu,andwhentheytoldhim,hesaid,＂ThisisthesentencewhichtheLORDpronouncedthroughhisservantElijahtheTishbite:‘IntheconfinesofJezreeldogsshalleatthefleshofJezebel.
遂回来告诉耶胡。耶胡说：＂这正应验了上主藉自己的仆人提市贝人厄里亚所说的话：在依次勒耳的庄田里，狗要吞食依则贝耳的肉；
37ThecorpseofJezebelshallbelikedunginthefieldintheconfinesofJezreel,sothatnoonecansay:ThiswasJezebel.'＂
依则贝耳的尸首要成为依次勒耳田地里的粪土，以致人不能说：这是依则贝耳。＂
