2 Mafumu 11
1 Ataliya amayi ake a Ahaziya ataona kuti mwana wawo wafa, ananyamuka nakawononga banja lonse la mfumu.
Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal family.
2 Koma Yehoseba, mwana wamkazi wa Mfumu Yehoramu, mlongo wake wa Ahaziya, anatenga Yowasi mwana wa Ahaziya, namusunga kutali ndi ana a mfumu amene ankati awaphewo. Anamuyika iye pamodzi ndi mlezi wake mʼchipinda chogona chamʼkati kubisira Ataliya kotero iye sanaphedwe.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and secretly took him away from among the king's sons who were to be executed, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bedroom. So he was hidden from Athaliah and was not put to death.
3 Mwanayo anakhala mobisala pamodzi ndi mlezi wake mʼnyumba ya Yehova kwa zaka zisanu ndi chimodzi pamene Ataliya ankalamulira dzikolo.
He was with her hidden in the house of the LORD six years. Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 Koma mʼchaka chachisanu ndi chiwiri, Yehoyada anatumiza mawu kukayitana atsogoleri olamulira asilikali 100 olondera mfumu ndiponso alonda olonda nyumba yaufumu ndipo anabwera nawo mʼNyumba ya Yehova. Iye anapangana nawo pangano ndipo anawalumbiritsa mʼnyumba ya Yehova. Kenaka anawaonetsa mwana wamwamuna wa mfumu uja.
In the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains over hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and showed them the king's son.
5 Yehoyada anawalamulira kuti, “Chimene muti muchite ndi ichi: Inu magulu atatu amene muti mudzakhale pa ntchito tsiku la Sabata, gulu loyamba lidzalondera nyumba ya mfumu,
He commanded them, saying, "This is the thing that you shall do: a third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king's house.
6 gulu lachiwiri lidzalondera Chipata cha Suri, ndipo gulu lachitatu lidzalondera chipata cha kumbuyo kwa asilikali amene amasinthana polondera nyumbayo.
A third part shall be at the Foundation Gate, and a third part at the gate behind the guard. So you shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7 Ndipo inu amene muli mʼmagulu ena awiri amene simugwira ntchito pa tsiku la Sabata, nonse mudzalondere mfumu ku nyumbayo.
The two companies of you, even all who go out on the Sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD around the king.
8 Mudzakhale mozungulira mfumuyo, munthu aliyense ali ndi chida mʼmanja mwake. Wina aliyense amene adzakuyandikireni adzayenera kuphedwa. Muzikhala pafupi ndi mfumu kulikonse kumene ikupita.”
You shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he who comes within the ranks, let him be slain. Be with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in."
9 Atsogoleri olamulira asilikali 100 aja anachitadi zonse monga analamulira wansembe Yehoyada. Aliyense anatenga anthu ake, iwo amene amakagwira ntchito pa tsiku la Sabata ndi amene amapita kukapuma ndipo anabwera kwa wansembe Yehoyada.
The captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those who were to come in on the Sabbath, with those who were to go out on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 Ndipo wansembeyo anawapatsa asilikaliwo mikondo ndi zishango zimene zinali za mfumu Davide ndipo zinali mʼNyumba ya Yehova.
The priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been king David's, which were in the house of the LORD.
11 Alondawo, aliyense ali ndi chida mʼmanja mwake, anayima mozungulira mfumu, pafupi ndi guwa lansembe ndi nyumbayo, kuchokera mbali ya kummwera mpaka mbali ya kumpoto kwa nyumbayo.
The guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, around the king.
12 Yehoyada anatulutsa mwana wa mfumuyo namuveka chipewa chaufumu ndipo anamupatsa Buku la Chipangano ndi kumuyika kukhala mfumu. Iwo anamudzoza ndipo anthu anamuwombera mʼmanja akufuwula kuti, “Mfumu ikhale ndi moyo wautali!”
Then he brought out the king's son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, "Long live the king."
13 Ataliya atamva phokoso limene alonda ndi anthuwo amachita, anapita ku Nyumba ya Yehova kumene kunali anthuwo.
When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
14 Iye anayangʼana naona mfumu itayima pa chipilala, potsata mwambo waufumu. Atsogoleri a asilikali ndi oyimba malipenga anali pafupi ndi mfumuyo, ndipo anthu onse a mʼderalo ankasangalala ndi kuyimba malipenga. Pamenepo Ataliya anangʼamba mkanjo wake nafuwula kuti, “Kuwukira! Kuwukira!”
and she looked, and look, the king stood by the pillar, as the tradition was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes, and cried, "Treason. Treason."
15 Wansembe Yehoyada analamula atsogoleri a asilikali 100 amene amayangʼanira asilikaliwo kuti, “Mutulutseni ameneyo pakati panu ndipo muphe ndi lupanga aliyense amene adzamutsata.” Pakuti nʼkuti wansembeyo atanena kuti, “Ataliyayo asaphedwere mʼNyumba ya Yehova.”
Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, "Bring her out between the ranks. Kill him who follows her with the sword." For the priest said, "Do not let her be slain in the house of the LORD."
16 Choncho anamugwira pamene amafika pa malo amene akavalo amalowera ku nyumba ya mfumu ndipo anamuphera pamenepo.
So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entry to the king's house. She was slain there.
17 Tsono Yehoyada anachititsa pangano pakati pa Yehova ndi mfumu ndi anthu kuti adzakhala anthu a Yehova. Iye anachititsanso pangano pakati pa mfumu ndi anthu.
Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD's people.
18 Anthu onse a mʼdzikomo anapita ku nyumba ya Baala nakayigwetsa. Iwo anaphwanya kotheratu maguwa ansembe ndi mafano ake ndipo anapha Matani wansembe wa Baala patsogolo pa maguwa pomwepo. Pamenepo wansembe Yehoyada anasankha oyangʼanira Nyumba ya Yehova.
All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down; his altars and his images broke they in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. The priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
19 Iye anatenga atsogoleri a asilikali 100 aja, alonda olonda nyumba yaufumu pamodzi ndi anthu onse a mʼdzikomo ndipo onse pamodzi anayitulutsa mfumu mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndi kukalowa ku nyumba yaufumu podzera pa chipata cha alonda. Ndipo mfumuyo inakhala pa mpando wake waufumu.
He took the captains over hundreds, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the Gate of the Guard to the king's house. He sat on the throne of the kings.
20 Choncho anthu onse a mʼdzikomo anasangalala. Ndipo mu mzindamo munakhala bata chifukwa Ataliya nʼkuti ataphedwa ndi lupanga ku nyumba ya mfumu.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. Athaliah they had slain with the sword at the king's house.
21 Yowasi anali wa zaka zisanu ndi ziwiri pamene anayamba kulamulira.
Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
