2 Kraljevima 11

1 Zato Ahazjina mati Atalija, vidjevši gdje joj sin poginu, ustade i posmica sav kraljevski rod.

Then Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah when she saw that her sonne was dead, she arose, and destroyed all the Kings seede.

2 Ali Jošeba, kći kralja Jorama i sestra Ahazjina, uze Ahazjina sina Joaša; ukravši ga između kraljevih sinova koje su ubijali, metnu ga s dojiljom u ložnicu. Tako ga je sakrila od Atalije te nije pogubljen.

But Iehosheba the daughter of King Ioram, and sister to Ahaziah tooke Ioash the sonne of Ahaziah, and stale him from among the Kings sonnes that shoulde be slaine, both him and his nource, keeping them in the bed chaber, and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slaine.

3 Bio je sakriven u Domu Jahvinu šest godina, sve dok je zemljom vladala Atalija.

And he was with her hid in the house of the Lord sixe yeere: and Athaliah did reigne ouer the land.

4 Sedme godine Jojada posla po satnike Karijaca i tjelesnu stražu i pozva ih k sebi u Dom Jahvin. Sklopi s njima savez, zakle ih i pokaza im kraljeva sina.

And the seuenth yeere Iehoiada sent and tooke the captaines ouer hundreths, with other captaines and them of the garde, and caused them to come vnto him into the house of the Lord, and made a couenant with them, and tooke an othe of them in the house of the Lord, and shewed them the Kings sonne.

5 I reče im: “Evo što valja da učinite: trećina vas koji subotom ulazite u službu neka čuva stražu kod kraljevskoga dvora.

And he commanded them, saying, This is it that ye must doe, The third part of you, that commeth on the Sabbath, shall warde towarde the Kings house:

6 Druga trećina, ona kod Surskih vrata, i treća trećina, ona kod stražnjih stražarskih vrata, neka čuvaju stražu kod ulaza u dvor;

And another third part in the gate of Sur: and another thirde part in the gate behinde them of the garde: and ye shall keepe watche in the house of Massah.

7 a ostala dva vaša odreda, svi koji subotom izlaze iz službe, neka čuvaju stražu u Domu Jahvinu kod kralja.

And two parts of you, that is, all that goe out on the Sabbath day, shall keepe the watch of the house of the Lord about the King.

8 Tako ćete okružiti kralja, svaki s oružjem u ruci. I tko god pokuša proći kroz vaše redove, neka bude pogubljen. Budite uz kralja kamo god pođe ili izađe.”

And ye shall compasse the King rounde about, euery man with his weapon in his hande, and whosoeuer commeth within the ranges, let him be slayne: be you with the King, as he goeth out and in.

9 Satnici su učinili sve kako im je naredio svećenik Jojada. Svaki je od njih uzeo svoje ljude koji subotom ulaze u službu s onima koji subotom izlaze. I svi su došli svećeniku Jojadi.

And the captaines of the hundreths did according to all that Iehoiada the Priest commaded, and they tooke euery man his men that entred in to their charge on the Sabbath with them that went out of it on the Sabbath, and came to Iehoiada the Priest.

10 Svećenik dade satnicima koplja i štitove kralja Davida što su bili u Domu Jahvinu.

And the Priest gaue to the captaines of hundreths the speares and the shieldes that were King Dauids, and were in the house of the Lord.

11 Stražari se svrstaše, s oružjem u ruci, od južne do sjeverne strane Doma i prema žrtveniku i Domu oko kralja unaokolo.

And the garde stoode, euery man with his weapon in his hande, from the right side of the house to the left side, about the altar and about the house, round about the King.

12 Tada Jojada izvede sina kraljeva, stavi mu krunu i dade mu Svjedočanstvo te ga pomaza za kralja. Pljeskali su i vikali: “Živio kralj!”

Then he brought out the Kings sonne, and put the crowne vpon him and gaue him the Testimonie, and they made him King: also they anoynted him, and clapt their handes, and sayde, God saue the King.

13 Kad Atalija ču viku naroda, dođe k narodu u Dom Jahvin.

And when Athaliah heard the noyse of the running of the people, shee came in to the people in the house of the Lord.

14 Pogleda bolje, kad gle, kralj, po običaju, stoji na svojem mjestu, a pred kraljem zapovjednici i svirači; sav puk klikće od radosti i trubi u trube. Tad Atalija razdrije haljine i povika: “Izdaja! Izdaja!”

And when shee looked, beholde, the King stoode by a pillar, as the maner was, and the princes and the trumpetters by the King, and al the people of the land reioyced, and blew with trumpets. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and cryed, Treason, treason.

15 Svećenik Jojada naredi satnicima i vojnim zapovjednicima: “Izvedite je kroz redove i tko krene za njom pogubite ga mačem.” Još je svećenik dodao: “Nemojte je smaknuti u Domu Jahvinu.”

But Iehoiada the Priest commanded the captaines of the hundreths that had the rule of the hoste, and sayde vnto them, Haue her forth of the ranges, and he that followeth her, let him die by the sworde: for the Priest had sayd, Let her not be slaine in the house of the Lord.

16 Staviše ruke na nju; a kad je kroz Konjska vrata stigla do kraljevskog dvora, ondje je pogubiše.

Then they laid hands on her, and she went by the way, by the which the horses goe to the house of the King, and there was she slaine.

17 Tada Jojada sklopi savez između Jahve, kralja i naroda da narod bude narod Jahvin.

And Iehoiada made a couenant betweene the Lord, and the King and the people, that they should be the Lordes people: likewise betweene the King and the people.

18 Potom sav narod ode u Baalov hram i razoriše ga, porušiše žrtvenike i polomiše likove; a Baalova svećenika Matana ubiše pred žrtvenicima. A svećenik opet postavi straže kod Doma Jahvina.

Then all the people of the lande went into the house of Baal, and destroyed it with his altars, and his images brake they downe courageously, and slewe Mattan the Priest of Baal before the altars: and the Priest set a garde ouer the house of the Lord.

19 Zatim uze satnike Karijaca, stražu i sav narod. Oni izvedoše kralja iz Doma Jahvina i uvedoše ga u dvor kroz Vrata stražarska. I Joaš sjede na kraljevsko prijestolje.

Then he tooke the captaines of hudreths, and the other captaines, and the garde, and all the people of the lande: and they brought the King from the house of the Lord, and came by the way of the gate of the garde to the Kings house: and he sate him downe on the throne of the Kings.

20 Sav se puk veselio i grad se smirio kad su Ataliju ubili mačem u kraljevskom dvoru.

And all the people of the land reioyced, and the citie was in quiet: for they had slaine Athaliah with the sworde beside the Kings house.

21 Joašu je bilo sedam godina kad se zakraljio.

Seuen yeere olde was Iehoash when he began to reigne.
