< 2 Chronicles 23 >
1 Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada strengthened himself and made a covenant with the commanders of hundreds—with Azariah son of Jeroham, Ishmael son of Jehohanan, Azariah son of Obed, Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zichri.
A shekara ta bakwai Yehohiyada ya nuna ƙarfinsa. Ya yi alkawari da shugabanni na ɗari-ɗari, Azariya ɗan Yeroham, Ishmayel ɗan Yehohanan, Azariya ɗan Obed, Ma’asehiya ɗan Adahiya, da Elishafat ɗan Zikri.
2 So they went throughout Judah and gathered the Levites from all the cities of Judah and the heads of the families of Israel. And when they came to Jerusalem,
Suka ratsa cikin Yahuda suka tattara Lawiyawa da shugabannin iyalan Isra’ilawa daga dukan garuruwa. Sa’ad da suka zo Urushalima,
3 the whole assembly made a covenant with the king in the house of God. “Behold, the king’s son!” said Jehoiada. “He must reign, just as the LORD promised concerning the descendants of David.
dukan taron suka yi alkawari da sarki a haikalin Allah. Yehohiyada ya ce musu, “Ɗan sarki zai yi mulki yadda Ubangiji ya yi alkawari game da zuriyar Dawuda.
4 This is what you are to do: A third of you priests and Levites who come on duty on the Sabbath shall keep watch at the doors,
Yanzu ga abin da za ku yi, shi ne, kashi ɗaya bisa uku na firistoci da Lawiyawa waɗanda za su yi aiki a Asabbaci su yi tsaro a ƙofofi,
5 a third shall be at the royal palace, and a third at the Foundation Gate, while all the others are in the courtyards of the house of the LORD.
kashi ɗaya bisa ukunku a fadan sarki, kashi ɗaya bisa uku kuma, a Ƙofar Harsashi, sai kuma dukan sauran mutane su kasance a filayen haikalin Ubangiji.
6 No one is to enter the house of the LORD except the priests and those Levites who serve; they may enter because they are consecrated, but all the people are to obey the requirement of the LORD.
Babu wanda zai shiga haikalin Ubangiji sai firistoci da Lawiyawan da suke a aiki; za su iya shiga domin su tsarkaku ne, amma sauran mutane za su kiyaye abin da Ubangiji ya sa su yi.
7 The Levites must surround the king with weapons in hand, and anyone who enters the temple must be put to death. You must stay close to the king wherever he goes.”
Lawiyawa za su tsaya kewaye da sarki, kowane mutum da makamansa a hannunsa. Duk wanda ya shiga haikali sai a kashe shi. Ku tsaya kusa da sarki a duk inda ya tafi.”
8 So the Levites and all Judah did everything that Jehoiada the priest had ordered. Each of them took his men—those coming on duty on the Sabbath and those going off duty—for Jehoiada the priest had not released any of the divisions.
Lawiyawa da dukan mutanen Yahuda suka yi yadda Yehohiyada firist ya umarta. Kowanne ya ɗauki mutanensa, waɗanda suke aiki a Asabbaci da waɗanda suka gama aiki, gama Yehohiyada firist bai bar waɗansu ɓangarori ba.
9 Then Jehoiada the priest gave to the commanders of hundreds the spears and the large and small shields of King David that were in the house of God.
Sa’an nan ya ba shugabannin māsu da garkuwoyi manya da ƙanana na sarki Dawuda, waɗanda suke cikin haikalin Allah.
10 He stationed all the troops, with their weapons in hand, surrounding the king by the altar and the temple, from the south side to the north side of the temple.
Ya kuma sa dukan mutane, kowanne da makaminsa a hannunsa, kewaye da sarki, kusa da bagade da kuma haikali, daga gefen kudu zuwa gefen arewa na haikali.
11 Then Jehoiada and his sons brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, presented him with the Testimony, and proclaimed him king. They anointed him and shouted, “Long live the king!”
Yehohiyada da’ya’yansa maza suka fitar da ɗan sarki suka sa rawani a kansa; suka miƙa masa alkawarin, suka kuma yi shelarsa a matsayin sarki. Suka shafe shi suka kuma tā da murya suna cewa, “Ran sarki yă daɗe!”
12 When Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and cheering the king, she went out to them in the house of the LORD.
Sa’ad da Ataliya ta ji surutun mutane suna gudu suna yabon sarki, sai ta tafi wurinsu a haikalin Ubangiji.
13 And she looked out and saw the king standing by his pillar at the entrance. The officers and trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets, while the singers with musical instruments were leading the praises. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed, “Treason, treason!”
Ta duba, a can kuwa ga sarki, tsaye kusa da ginshiƙinsa a mashigi. Manyan sojoji da masu bushe-bushe suna kusa da sarki, dukan mutanen ƙasar kuwa suna farin ciki suna busa ƙahoni, mawaƙa kuma da kayan kiɗi suna bi da yabo. Sai Ataliya ta yage rigunanta ta yi ihu tana cewa, “Cin amanar ƙasa! Cin amanar ƙasa!”
14 And Jehoiada the priest sent out the commanders of hundreds in charge of the army, saying, “Bring her out between the ranks, and put to the sword anyone who follows her.” For the priest had said, “She must not be put to death in the house of the LORD.”
Yehohiyada firist ya fito da shugabanni waɗanda suke shugabancin rundunar sojoji, ya ce musu, “Ku fitar da ita tsakanin sojoji ku kuma kashe duk wanda ya bi ta da takobi.” Gama firist ya ce, “Kada ku kashe ta a haikalin Ubangiji.”
15 So they seized Athaliah as she reached the entrance of the Horse Gate to the palace grounds, and there they put her to death.
Saboda haka suka kama ta yayinda take kaiwa mashigin Ƙofar Doki a filin fada, a can suka kashe ta.
16 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and the king and the people that they would be the LORD’s people.
Sa’an nan Yehohiyada ya yi alkawari cewa shi da mutane da kuma sarki za su zama mutanen Ubangiji.
17 So all the people went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and idols to pieces and killed Mattan the priest of Baal in front of the altars.
Dukan mutane suka tafi haikalin Ba’al suka rurrushe shi. Suka farfashe bagadan da gumakan, suka kuma kashe Mattan firist na Ba’al a gaban bagadan.
18 Moreover, Jehoiada put the oversight of the house of the LORD into the hands of the Levitical priests, whom David had appointed over the house of the LORD, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD as is written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and song, as ordained by David.
Sa’an nan Yehohiyada ya sa aikin lura da haikalin Ubangiji a hannuwan firistoci, waɗanda suke Lawiyawan da Dawuda ya ba su aikin haikali don su miƙa hadayun ƙonawa na Ubangiji kamar yadda yake a rubuce a Dokar Musa, da farin ciki da kuma rerawa, kamar yadda Dawuda ya umarta.
19 He stationed gatekeepers at the gates of the house of the LORD, so that nothing unclean could enter for any reason.
Ya kuma sa matsaran ƙofofi a ƙofofin haikalin Ubangiji don kada wani da ba shi da tsarki yă shiga.
20 He also took with him the commanders of hundreds, the nobles, the rulers of the people, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD and entered the royal palace through the Upper Gate. They seated King Joash on the royal throne,
Ya ɗauki shugabannin ɗari-ɗari, manyan gari, shugabannin mutane da dukan mutanen ƙasar tare da shi ya saukar da sarki daga haikalin Ubangiji. Suka shiga fada ta Ƙofar Bisa suka kuma zaunar da sarki a kujerar sarauta,
21 and all the people of the land rejoiced. And the city was quiet, because Athaliah had been put to the sword.
sai dukan mutanen ƙasar suka yi farin ciki. Birnin kuwa ya samu zaman lafiya domin an kashe Ataliya da takobi.
