2 Weche Mag Ndalo 23
1 E higa mar abiriyo Jehoyada nonyiso tekone. Ne otimo winjruok kod jotend migepe mag jolweny mia achiel magin Azaria wuod Jeroham gi Ishmael wuod Jehohanan gi Azaria wuod Obed gi Maseya wuod Adaya kaachiel gi Elishafat wuod Zikri.
Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada having been strengthened, he took the centurions, namely, Azariah, the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael, the son of Jehohanan, and also Azariah, the son of Obed, and Maaseiah, the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat, the son of Zichri, and he formed a pact with them.
2 Ne giwuotho e piny Juda duto ka gichoko jo-Lawi kaachiel gi jotend anywola mag Israel moa e mier duto. Kane gibiro Jerusalem,
And traveling through Judah, they gathered together the Levites from all of the cities of Judah, and the leaders of the families of Israel, and they went to Jerusalem.
3 jogo mano chokore notimo winjruok gi ruoth e hekalu mar Nyasaye. Jehoyada nowachonegi niya, “Wuod ruoth nobed e loch kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosingore kuom nyikwa Daudi.
Then the entire multitude formed a pact with the king, in the house of God. And Jehoiada said to them: “Behold, the son of the king shall reign, just as the Lord has said concerning the sons of David.
4 Koro gima onego utim ema: Achiel kuom adek mar jodolo kod jo-Lawi mabiro dhiyo e tich chiengʼ Sabato biro rito dhoudi,
Therefore, this is the word that you shall do:
5 to achiel kuom adek machielo to orit od ruoth, to achiel kuom adek modongʼ to orit Ranga Mise to ji mamoko modongʼ duto to nobed e laru mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
One third part of you who arrive on the Sabbath, priests, and Levites, and porters, shall be at the gates. Truly, one third part shall be at the house of the king. And one third shall be at the gate which is called the Foundation. Yet truly, let all the remainder of the common people be in the courts of the house of the Lord.
6 Kik uyiene ngʼato angʼata mondo odonj e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye makmana jodolo kod jo-Lawi mopwodhi kendo tiyo odiechiengʼno, to ji mamoko duto to orit tije ma Jehova Nyasaye osemiyogi mondo gitim.
Let no one else enter into the house of the Lord, except the priests, and those from the Levites who are ministering. These alone may enter, for they have been sanctified. And let all the remainder of the common people observe the watches of the Lord.
7 Jo-Lawi nochungʼ kolworo ruoth ka moro ka moro otingʼo gige lweny mage e lwete kendo ngʼato angʼata modonjo e hekalu nyaka negi, bende beduru machiegni gi ruoth kamoro amora modhiye.”
Then let the Levites encircle the king, each one having his weapons. And if anyone else will have entered into the temple, let him be slain. And may they be with the king, both entering and departing.”
8 Jo-Lawi gi jo-Juda notimo kaka Jehoyada jadolo nochikogi. Jatend migawo ka migawo nokawo joge mane dhi tich chiengʼ Sabato to gi mago mane onego oywe, nikech Jehoyada ne ok omiyo migepe mamokogi thuolo.
Then the Levites, and all of Judah, acted in accord with all that the high priest Jehoiada had instructed. And each of them took the men who were under him, and who were arriving by the course of the Sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the Sabbath and who were about to depart. For indeed the high priest Jehoiada had not permitted the companies to depart, which were accustomed to replace one another each week.
9 Eka nomiyo jotend migepe mag jolweny mia achiel tonge kod kuodi kod okumba mano mane mag Ruoth Daudi mane nitie e hekalu mar Nyasaye.
And Jehoiada, the priest, gave to the centurions the lances and round shields and crescent shields of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord.
10 Nochano ji duto mondo orit ruoth ka moro ka moro nigi gire mar lweny e lwete, chakre yo milambo nyaka yo nyandwat mar hekalu ka gilworo kendo mar misango kod hekalu.
And he positioned all the people, holding short swords, from the right part of the temple to the left part of the temple, before the altar and the temple, all around the king.
11 Eka Jehoyada kod yawuote nogolo wuod ruoth oko mi osidhone osimbo mar loch kendo negimiye kitap chik mi gikete ruoth. Ne giwire ka gigoyo koko niya, “Ruoth mondo odag amingʼa!”
And they led out the son of the king. And they imposed the diadem on him, and the testimony. And they gave him the law to hold in his hand. And they appointed him as king. Also, the high priest Jehoiada and his sons anointed him. And they prayed for him, and said, “May the king live!”
12 Kane Athalia owinjo koko mar joma ne ringo kendo pako ruoth, nodhi irgi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
And when Athaliah had heard it, specifically the sound of running and the praising of the king, she entered to the people in the temple of the Lord.
13 Nongʼicho moneno ruoth kochungʼ e bath siro mar dhoot. Jotelo gi jogo turumbete nochungʼ e bath ruoth kendo ji duto mag pinyno ne mor kendo negigoyo turumbete, to jower magoyo thumbe notelo ni wende pak. Eka Athalia noyiecho lepe kakok niya, “Andhoga! Andhoga!”
And when she had seen the king standing upon the step at the entrance, and the leaders and companies around him, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding the trumpets, and playing on instruments of various kinds, and the voice of those who were praising, she tore her garments, and she said: “Treason! Treason!”
14 Jehoyada nooro jotelo morito migepe mag jolweny mia achiel-ka, ma bende ne gin jotend jolweny kowachonegi niya, “Keleuru e dierwa kendo neguru ngʼato angʼata maluwe.” Nimar jadolo nosewacho niya, “Kik dhakono donj ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
Then the high priest Jehoiada, going out to the centurions and to the leaders of the army, said to them: “Lead her away, beyond the borders of the temple. And let her be put to death outside, with the sword.” And the priest instructed that she should not be killed in the house of the Lord.
15 Omiyo negimake kane ochopo e dhorangaj Farese e kar od ruoth kendo kanyo ema neginege.
And they laid hands on her neck. And when she had entered the gate for the horses at the king’s house, they put her to death there.
16 Eka Jehoyada gi ji kod ruoth nosingore ni ginibed jo-Jehova Nyasaye.
Then Jehoiada formed a covenant between himself and the entire people, and the king, so that they would be the people of the Lord.
17 Ji duto nodhi e hekalu mar Baal kendo negimuke. Negitoyo matindo tindo kende mag misango kaachiel gi nyisechene manono kendo neginego Matan jadolo mar Baal e nyim kendegi mag misango.
And so, all the people entered into the house of Baal, and they destroyed it. And they broke apart his altars and idols. Also, they put to death Mattan, the priest of Baal, before the altars.
18 Bangʼe Jehoyada noketo jorit mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye e bwo jodolo mane gin jo-dhood Lawi mane Daudi omiyo tij hekalu mondo gichiw misengini miwangʼo pep ni Jehova Nyasaye kaka ondikgi e Chik Musa ka gimor kod wer kaka Daudi ne ochikogi.
Then Jehoiada appointed overseers in the house of the Lord, under the hands of the priests and Levites, whom David had distributed to the house of the Lord so that they might offer holocausts to the Lord, just as it was written in the law of Moses, with gladness and singing, in accord with the disposition of David.
19 Bende noketo jorit dhoudi e rangeye mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mondo ngʼato angʼata ma ok ler kik donji.
Also, he appointed porters at the gates of the house of the Lord, so that whoever was unclean for any reason would not enter.
20 Nokawo jotend migepe mag jolweny mia achiel-ka, jood ruoth, jotend ji kaachiel gi jopinyno duto kendo negigolo ruoth oko mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Negidhi e od ruoth ka giluwo Rangach Mamalo kendo giketo ruoth e kom duongʼne.
And he took the centurions, and the most valiant men, and the leaders of the people, and all the common people of the land, and they set out to descend to the king, from the house of the Lord, and to enter through the middle of the upper gate, to the house of the king. And they placed him on the royal throne.
21 Jopinyno duto nobedo gi mor kendo dala maduongʼ nobedo gi kwe, nikech Athalia nosenegi gi ligangla.
And all the people of the land were rejoicing, and the city was quieted. But Athaliah was slain with the sword.
