2 Manghai 11

1 Ahaziah manu Athaliah loh a capa a duek te a sawt tih a hmuh vaengah thoo tih a ram kah tiingan boeih te a thup.

Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she arose and killed all the royal children.

2 Tedae Manghai Joram canu, Ahaziah ngannu Jehosheba loh Ahaziah capa Joash te a loh. Te vaengah manghai ca rhoek aka ngawn rhoek kah dueknah khui lamloh anih te a huen. Te phoeiah anih te Athaliah mikhmuh lamloh cakhoem imkhui kah baiphaih dongah a thuh dongah duek pawh.

But Jehosheba, a daughter of King Jehoram and sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and hid him away from among the king's sons who were killed, along with his nurse; she put them into a bedroom. They hid him from Athaliah so that he was not killed.

3 Anih taengla BOEIPA im ah kum rhuk a thuh vaengah Athaliah lohkhohmuen a manghai thil.

He remained with her six years, hidden in the house of Yahweh, while Athaliah reigned over the land.

4 A kum rhih dongah Jehoiada a tah. Te vaengah yakhat mangpa rhoek te pumoepnah ham neh imtawt hamla hlang yakhat a khuen. Amih te BOEIPA im ah amah taengla a khuen tih amih neh paipi a saii. Te phoeiah amih te BOEIPA im ah a toemngam tih manghai capa te amih a tueng.

In the seventh year, Jehoiada sent messages and brought the commanders of hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to himself, into the temple of Yahweh. He made a covenant with them, and he made them swear an oath in the house of Yahweh. Then he showed them the king's son.

5 Te phoeiah amih te a uen tih, “He ol bangla saii uh. Nangmih Sabbath kah aka pawk rhoek te hlop thum ah hlop at loh manghai im kah tuemkoi te ngaithuen saeh.

He commanded them, saying, “This is what you must do. A third of you who come on the Sabbath will keep watch over the king's house,

6 Hlop thum ah hlop at te Sur vongka ah, hlop thum ah hlop at te a hnukah kah vongka ah tawt uh saeh lamtah im kah a kuek te tloetloep ngaithuen uh.

and a third will be at the Sur Gate, and a third at the gate behind the guardhouse.”

7 Nangmih Sabbath kah aka pawk boeih khuiah hlop nit loh BOEIPA im kah a kuek te manghai yueng la ngaithuen uh saeh.

The two other groups who are not serving on the Sabbath, you must keep the watch over the house of Yahweh for the king.

8 Manghai kaepvai ah hlang loh a kut dongkah a tubael neh vael uh lamtah rhongpai taengla aka pawk tah duek saeh. Manghai a kun vaengah khaw a vuenva vaengah anih taengah om uh,” a ti nah.

You must surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand. Whoever enters within your ranks, let him be killed. You must stay with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in.

9 A cungkuem dongah khosoih Jehoiada kah a uen bangla yakhat kah mangpa yakhat loh a saii. Te dongah Sabbath aka paan hlang loh Sabbath aka paan taengah tah amah kah hlang rhoek te a khuen uh tih khosoih Jehoiada taengla pawk uh.

So the commanders of hundreds obeyed everything Jehoiada the priest commanded. Each one took his men, those who were to come in to serve on the Sabbath, and those who were to stop serving on that Sabbath; and they came to Jehoiada the priest.

10 Te vaengah khosoih loh yakhat kah mangpa, yakhat rhoek taengah BOEIPA im ah manghai David hut la aka om caai neh photling te a paek.

Then Jehoiada the priest gave the commanders of hundreds the spears and shields that belonged to King David and that were in the house of Yahweh.

11 Te dongah hlang aka tawt rhoek te a kut dongkah a kubael neh im kaep bantang lamloh im kaep kah banvoei hil, hmueihtuk taeng neh im taengkah manghai taengah pin pai uh.

So the guards stood, each man with his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side, near the altar and the temple, surrounding the king.

12 Te vaengah manghai capa te a khuen tih anih te rhuisam neh olphong te a tloeng thil. Anih te a manghai sak tih a koelh vaengah tah kut a paeng uh tih, “Manghai tah hing pai saeh,” a ti uh.

Then Jehoiada brought out the king's son Joash, put the crown on him, and gave him the covenant decrees. Then they made him king and anointed him. They clapped their hands and said, “Long live the king!”

13 Pilnam aka tawt ol te Athaliah loh a yaak daengah BOEIPA im kah pilnam taengla pawk.

When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people in the house of Yahweh.

14 A sawt vaengah a khosing vanbangla manghai te tung taengah tarha ana pai coeng. Mangpa rhoek neh olueng rhoek khaw manghai taengah pai tih khohmuen pilnam boeih khaw a kohoe uh. Olueng te a ueng vaengah tah Athaliah loh a himbai te a phen tih, “Lairhui ni, lairhui ni,” tila pang.

She looked, and, behold, the king was standing by the pillar, as the custom was, and the captains and the trumpeters were by the king. All the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and shouted, “Treason! Treason!”

15 Te vaengah khosoih Jehoiada loh caem aka puei yakhat mangpa yakhat te a uen tih amih te, “Khosoih loh, 'BOEIPA im ah duek boel saeh,’ a ti coeng dongah anih te im lamloh rhongpai kah la khuen uh lamtah a hnukkah aka bang khaw cunghang neh duek saeh,” a ti nah.

Then Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of hundreds who were over the army, saying, “Bring her out between the ranks. Anyone who follows her, kill him with the sword.” For the priest had said, “Do not let her be killed in the house of Yahweh.”

16 Anih te kut a hlah thil tih manghai im kah marhang khuirhai longpuei a pha vaengah pahoi duek.

So they seized her as she reached the place where the horses enter the palace grounds, and there she was killed.

17 Jehoiada loh BOEIPA laklo neh manghai laklo ah khaw pilnam laklo ah khaw paipi a saii. BOEIPA kah pilnam la om sak ham te manghai laklo neh pilnam laklo ah a saii.

Then Jehoiada made a covenant between Yahweh and the king and people, that they should be Yahweh's people, and also between the king and the people.

18 Khohmuen pilnam boeih te Baal im a paan uh tih a hmueihtuk te a palet uh. A muei te khaw phaeng a neet uh. Baal khosoih Mattan te khaw hmueihtuk hmai ah a ngawn uh tih khosoih loh BOEIPA im dongah cawhkung te a khueh.

So all the people of the land went to the house of Baal and tore it down. They smashed Baal's altars and his idol figures to pieces, and they killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of those altars. Then Jehoida the priest appointed guards over the temple of Yahweh.

19 Te phoeiah yakhat mangpa rhoek neh pumoepnah te khaw, imtawt rhoek neh khohmuen pilnam boeih te khaw a khuen. Manghai te BOEIPA im lamloh a suntlak puei uh tih manghai im kah imtawt vongka longpuei la pawk. Te phoeiah manghai te ngolkhoel dongah ngol.

Jehoida took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, the guard, and all the people of the land, and together they brought down the king from the house of Yahweh and they went into the king's house, entering by way of the gate of the guards. Joash took his place on the royal throne.

20 Te vaengah khohmuen pilnam boeih a kohoe tih khopuei khaw mong coeng. Tedae Athaliah tah manghai im kah manghai cunghang neh a duek sakuh.

So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been killed with the sword at the king's house.

21 Jehoash he kum rhih a lo ca vaengah manghai coeng.

Joash was seven years old when he began to reign.
