jis sree ke bette ko aeleesha ne jilaya tha, us se us ne kaha tha ki apane gharane samet yahan se jakar jahan kaheen too rah sake vahan raha kyonki yahova kee ichchha haai ki akal pade, aur vah is desh men sat varsha tak bana rahega.
2 parameshvar ke bhkt ke is vachan ke anusar vah sree apane gharane samet palishtaiyon ke desh men jakar sat varsha rahee.
3 sat varsha ke beetane par vah palishtaiyon ke desh se lautt ai, aur apane ghar aur boomi ke liye dohai dene ko raja ke pas gai.
4 raja parameshvar ke bhkt ke sevak gehajee se baten kar raha tha, aur us ne kaha ki jo bade bade kam aeleesha ne kiye haain unahen mujh se varnn kara.
5 jab vah raja se yah varnn kar hee raha tha ki aeleesha ne aek murde ko jilaya, tab jis sree ke bette ko us ne jilaya tha vahee akar apane ghar aur boomi ke liye dohai dene lagee. tab gehajee ne kaha, he mere prabhu ! he raja ! yah vahee sree haai aur yahee usaka betta haai jise aeleesha ne jilaya tha.
6 jab raja ne stree se moochha, tab us ne us se sab kah diya. tab raja ne aek hakim ko yah kahakar usake sath kar diya ki lo kuchh isaka tha varan jab se is ne desh ko chhod diya tab se isake khet kee jitanee amadanee ab tak hui ho sab ise faer de.
7 aur aeleesha daamishak ko gaya. aur jab aram ke raja benhadad ko jo rogee tha yah samachar mila, ki parameshvar ka bhkt yahan bhee aya haai,
8 tab us ne hajaael se kaha, bhentt lekar parameshvar ke bhkt se milane ko ja, aur usake dara yahova se yah pooch, ki kya benhadad jo rogee haai vah bachega ki naheen?
9 tab hajaael bhentt ke liye daamishk kee sab uttam uttam vastuon se chalees untt ladavakar, us se milane ko chala, aur usake sammukh khda hokar kahane laga, tere putra aram ke raja benhadad ne mujhe tujh se yah poochhne ko bheja haai, ki kya maain jo rogee hoo to bachoonga ki naheen?
10 aeleesha ne us se kaha, jakar kah, too nishchay bach sakata, taubhee yahova ne mujh par pragatt kiya haai, ki too nisandeh mar jaaega.
11 aur vah usakee or ttkattkee bandha kar dekhta raha, yahan tak ki vah lajjait hua. aur parameshvar ka bhkt rone laga.
12 tab hajaael ne poochha, mera prabhu kyon rota haai? us ne uttar diya, isaliye ki mujhe maloom haai ki noo israaaeliyon par kya kya upadrav karega unake gaddhvale tagaron ko too foonk dega unake javanon ko too talavar se ghaat karega, unake balabachchon ko too pattk dega, aur unakee garbhvatee striayon ko too cheer dalega.
13 hajaael ne kaha, tera das jo kutte sareekha haai, vah kya haai ki aeesa bada kam kare? aeleesha ne kaha, yahova ne mujh par yah pragatt kiya haai ki too aram ka raja ho jaaega.
14 tab vah aeleesha se bida hokar apane svamee ke pas gaya, aur us ne us se poochha, aeleesha ne tujh se kya kaha? us ne uttar diya, us ne mujh se kaha ki benhadad nisandeh bachega.
15 doosare din us ne rajai ko lekar jal se bhaigo diya, aur usako usake munh par aeesa oddha diya ki vah mar gaya. tab hajaael usake sthan par rajy karane laga.
16 israaael ke raja ahab ke putra yoram ke panchaven varsha me, jab yahooda ka raja yahoshaapat jeevit tha, tab yahoshaapat ka putra yahoram yahooda par rajy karane laga.
17 jab vah raja hua, tab battees varsha ka tha, aur att varsha tak yarooshalem men rajy karata raha.
18 vah israaael ke rajaon kee see chal chala, jaaise ahab ka gharana chalata tha, kyonki usakee sree ahab kee bettee thee aur vah us kam ko karata tha jo yahova kee drashtti men bura haai.
19 taubhee yahova ne yahooda ko nash karana n chaha, yah usake das daud ke karan hua, kyonaki us ne usako vachan diya tha, ki tere vansh ke nimitt maain sada tere liye aek deepak jalata hua rakoonga.
20 usake dinon men edom ne yahooda kee adhaeenata chhodkar apana ek raja bana liya.
21 tab yoram apane sab rath sath liye huae sair ko gaya, or rat ko uttkar un aedomiyon ko jo use ghore huae the, aur rathon ke pradhaanon ko bhee mara aaair log apane apane dere ko bhag gaae.
22 yon aedom yahooda ke vash se choott gaya, aur aj tak vaaisa hee haai. us samay libna ne bhee yahooda kee adhaeenata chhod dee.
23 yoram ke aur sab kam aur jo kuchh us ne kiya, vah kya yahooda ke rajaon ke iatihas kee pustak men naheen likha haai?
24 nidan yoram apane purakhaon ke sang so gaya aur unake beech daudapur men use mittee dee gai aur usaka putra ahajjah usake sthan par rajy karane laga.
25 ahab ke putra israaael ke raja yoram ke barahaven varsha men yahooda ke raja yahoram ka putra ahajyah rajy karane laga.
26 jab ahajyah raja bana, tab bais varsha ka tha, aur yarooshalem men aek hee varsha rajy kiya. aur usakee mata ka nam atalyah tha, jo israaael ke raja omraee kee potee thee.
27 vah ahab ke gharane kee see chal chala, aur ahab ke gharane kee nai vah kam karata tha, jo yahova kee draashtti men bura haai, kyonki vah ahab ke gharane ka damad tha.
28 aur vah ahab ke putra yoram ke sang gilad ke ramot men aram ke raja hajaael se ladne ko gaya, aur araamiyon ne yoram ko ghaayal kiya.
29 so raja yoram isaliye lautt gaya, ki yijraail men un ghaavon ka ilaj karaa, jo usako araamiyon ke hath se us samay lage, jab vah hajaael ke sath lad raha tha. aur ahab ka putra yoram to yijraail men rogee raha, is karan yahooda ke raja yahoram ka putra ahajayah usako dekhne gaya.
