2 Královská 11
1 Atalia pak matka Ochoziášova viduci, že umřel syn její, vstavši, pomordovala všecko símě královské.
When King Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
2 Ale Jozaba dcera krále Jehorama, sestra Ochoziášova, vzala Joasa syna Ochoziášova, a ukradši ho z prostředku synů královských, kteříž mordováni byli, skryla jej i s chůvou jeho v pokoji, kdež lůže byla. A tak skryli ho před Atalií, a není zamordován.
So Ahaziah’s sons were all about to be murdered. But Jehosheba, who was King Jehoram’s daughter and Ahaziah’s half-sister, took Ahaziah’s [very young] son Joash and hid him and (his nursemaid/the woman who took care of him) in a bedroom [in the temple]. So he was not killed.
3 I byl s ní v domě Hospodinově tajně za šest let, v nichž Atalia kralovala nad zemí.
He stayed with Jehosheba for six years. All during that time, he remained hidden in the temple, while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
4 Léta sedmého poslav Joiada, povolal setníků, hejtmanů a drabantů. I uvedl je k sobě do domu Hospodinova, a učinil s nimi smlouvu, a zavázav je přísahou v domě Hospodinově, ukázal jim syna králova.
But during the next year, Jehoiada the Supreme Priest summoned the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards and the palace guards. He told them to come to the temple. There he required them to solemnly promise that they would do what he told them to do. And he showed King Ahaziah’s son Joash to them.
5 A přikázal jim, řka: Tato jest věc, kterouž učiníte: Třetí díl vás, kteříž přicházíte v sobotu, a držíte stráž, bude při domě králově,
He gave them these instructions: “There are three groups of you guards. When one group finishes their work on the Sabbath day, [divide yourselves into] three smaller groups. One group must guard the palace.
6 A díl třetí bude u brány Sur, a třetí díl bude u brány za drabanty, a budete stráž držeti, ostříhajíce domu tohoto před outokem.
Another group must guard at the Sur Gate. The other group must guard at the gate behind the other groups.
7 Vy pak všickni, kteříž byste odjíti měli v sobotu, po vykonání povinnosti při domě Hospodinově, ve dvě poboční stráže rozdělení, buďte při králi.
The two groups that are not working on the Sabbath day must guard the temple [to protect little King Joash].
8 A tak obstoupíte krále vůkol, jeden každý majíce braň svou v rukou svých. Kdož by pak šel do šiku vašeho, ať umře; a budete při králi, když bude vycházeti i když bude vcházeti.
You must stand around the king wherever he goes, with your weapons in your hands. You must kill anyone who comes near you.”
9 Protož učinili setníci ti všecky věci tak, jakž byl rozkázal Joiada kněz, a vzavše jeden každý muže své, kteříž přicházeli v sobotu a kteříž odcházeli v sobotu, přišli k Joiadovi knězi.
The officers [who supervised the guards] did what Jehoiada told them to do. Each one brought to Jehoiada the guards that he supervised—the guards who were just finishing their work and those who were about to start their work on the Sabbath day.
10 I dal kněz setníkům kopí a pavézy, kteréž byly Davida krále, a kteréž byly v domě Hospodinově.
The priest distributed to the commanders of the guards the spears and shields that had belonged to King David, that were kept/stored in the temple.
11 Stáli pak ti drabanti, jeden každý držíce braň svou v ruce své, od pravé strany domu až do levé strany domu, proti oltáři a proti domu při králi vůkol.
Then he commanded all the guards to stand in their positions, each one with his sword in his hand, all around the young king.
12 Tedy vyvedl syna králova, a vstavil na něj korunu a ozdobu. I ustanovili jej králem a pomazali ho, a plésajíce rukama, říkali: Živ buď král!
Then he brought Joash out. He put the crown on his head and gave him a scroll on which were written the rules [that the kings needed to obey]. Then he poured some olive oil on Joash’s head and proclaimed that he was now the king. The people all clapped their hands and shouted, “We desire/hope that the king will live for many years!”
13 V tom uslyševši Atalia hluk plésajícího lidu, vešla k lidu do domu Hospodinova.
When Athaliah heard the noise that was being made by the guards and the other people, she ran to the temple, where the people were gathered.
14 A když pohleděla, a aj, král stál na místě vyšším, vedlé obyčeje s knížaty, a trouby byly před králem, a všecken lid země byl vesel, i troubili v trouby. Tedy roztrhla Atalia roucho své a zkřikla: Spiknutí, spiknutí!
She saw the new king standing there alongside one of the big pillars, which was the place at the temple where the kings usually stood. She saw that he was surrounded by the temple officers and men blowing trumpets, and that the people were shouting joyfully, and [some of] them were also blowing trumpets. She tore her clothes [to show her distress] and shouted, “You are traitors! You have tricked/deceived me!”
15 Protož rozkázal Joiada kněz těm setníkům ustaveným nad vojskem, řka jim: Pusťte ji prostředkem řadu, a i toho, kdož by za ní šel, zabíte mečem. Nebo byl řekl kněz: Ať není zabita v domě Hospodinově.
Jehoiada [immediately] said, “Kill her, but do not kill her here at the temple of Yahweh! Take her away between two rows of guards. And kill anyone who tries to rescue her!”
16 I pustili ji. Ale když přišla na cestu, kudy koni vcházejí do domu královského, tu jest zabita.
[She tried to flee, but] the guards seized her and took her to the palace, to the place where horses enter the courtyard. They killed her there.
17 Tedy učinil Joiada smlouvu mezi Hospodinem a mezi králem, i mezi lidem, aby byli lid Hospodinův; též mezi králem a mezi lidem.
Then Jehoiada made a solemn agreement between the king and the people, that they would always (obey/be faithful to) Yahweh. He also made an agreement requiring the people to be loyal to Joash their king.
18 Potom šel všecken lid země do domu Bálova, a zbořili jej, i oltáře jeho a obrazy jeho v kusy stroskotali; Matana také kněze Bálova zabili před oltáři. Kněz pak znovu nařídil přisluhující v domě Hospodinově.
Then all the people of Israel who were there went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and the statues of Baal. They also killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars. Jehoiada stationed/put guards at the temple of Yahweh.
19 A pojav ty setníky a hejtmany, i drabanty se vším lidem země, provázeli krále z domu Hospodinova, a přišli cestou k bráně drabantů do domu královského. Kdežto posadil se na stolici královské.
Then he and the officers of the temple, the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards, and the king’s bodyguards brought the king from the temple to the palace. All the people [followed them]. Joash entered the palace at the Guard Gate and sat down on the throne, [which showed that he was the new king].
20 I veselil se všecken lid země, a město se upokojilo. Atalii pak zabili mečem u domu královského.
All the people of Judah rejoiced. And because Athaliah had been killed, the city was quiet/calm.
21 A byl Joas v sedmi letech, když počal kralovati.
Joash was seven years old when he became the king [of Judah].
