2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba.
Yowash yana da shekara goma sha bakwai sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi sarauta a Urushalima shekara arba’in. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Zibiya ce; ita daga Beyersheba.
2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Yowash ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji duka shekarun Yehohiyada firist.
3 Jehoiada took for himself two wives, and he had sons and daughters.
Yehohiyada ya zaɓi mata biyu dominsa, yana kuma da’ya’ya maza da’ya’ya mata.
4 Some time later, Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the LORD.
Wani lokaci daga baya Yowash ya yanke shawara yă gyara haikalin Ubangiji.
5 So he gathered the priests and Levites and said, “Go out to the cities of Judah and collect the money due annually from all Israel, to repair the house of your God. Do it quickly.” The Levites, however, did not make haste.
Ya tara firistoci da Lawiyawa wuri ɗaya ya ce musu, “Ku je garuruwan Yahuda ku karɓa kuɗin da ya kamata a biya shekara-shekara daga dukan Isra’ila, don gyaran haikalin Allahnku. Ku yi haka yanzu.” Amma Lawiyawa ba su yi haka nan da nan ba.
6 So the king called Jehoiada the high priest and said, “Why have you not required the Levites to bring from Judah and Jerusalem the tax imposed by Moses the servant of the LORD and by the assembly of Israel for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Saboda haka sarki ya kira Yehohiyada babban firist ya ce masa, “Me ya sa ba ka bukaci Lawiyawa su kawo harajin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya ce a biya daga Yahuda da Urushalima da kuma taron Isra’ila domin Tentin Sujada Shaida ba?”
7 For the sons of that wicked woman Athaliah had broken into the house of God and had even used the sacred objects of the house of the LORD for the Baals.
Yanzu’ya’ya muguwar macen nan Ataliya maza sun fasa zuwa cikin haikalin Allah, suka kuma yi amfani da kayayyaki masu tsarki ma wa Ba’al.
8 At the king’s command a chest was made and placed outside, at the gate of the house of the LORD.
Bisa ga umarnin sarki, aka yi akwati aka sa a waje, a mashigin haikalin Ubangiji.
9 And a proclamation was issued in Judah and Jerusalem that they were to bring to the LORD the tax imposed by Moses the servant of God on Israel in the wilderness.
Aka yi umarni a Yahuda da Urushalima cewa ya kamata suka kawo wa Ubangiji harajin da Musa bawan Allah ya bukaci daga Isra’ila a hamada.
10 All the officers and all the people rejoiced and brought their contributions, and they dropped them in the chest until it was full.
Dukan hafsoshi da dukan mutane suka kawo nasu kuɗin da aka sa musu da farin ciki, suna zuba su cikin akwatin sai da ya cika.
11 Whenever the chest was brought by the Levites to the king’s overseers and they saw that there was a large amount of money, the royal scribe and the officer of the high priest would come and empty the chest and carry it back to its place. They did this daily and gathered the money in abundance.
Duk sa’ad da Lawiyawa suka fito da akwatin zuwa ga hafsoshin sarki, suka kuma ga cewa akwatin yana da kuɗi mai yawa, sai magatakardan fada da hafsan babban firist su zo su juya kuɗin daga akwatin su mai da shi wurinsa. Sun riƙa yin haka kullum suka tara kuɗi mai yawa.
12 Then the king and Jehoiada would give the money to those who supervised the labor on the house of the LORD to hire stonecutters and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, as well as workers in iron and bronze to repair the house of the LORD.
Sarki da Yehohiyada suka ba da shi ga mutanen da suka yi aikin da ake bukata don haikalin Ubangiji. Suka ɗauki masu gini da kafintoci don su gyara haikalin Ubangiji, da kuma ma’aikatan ƙarafa da tagulla don su gyara haikalin.
13 So the workmen labored, and in their hands the repair work progressed. They restored the house of God according to its specifications, and they reinforced it.
Mutanen da suke lura da aikin natsattsu ne, kuma gyare-gyaren suka ci gaba a ƙarƙashinsu. Suka sāke gina haikalin Allah bisa ga ainihin fasalinsa suka ƙara masa ƙarfi.
14 When they were finished, they brought the rest of the money to the king and Jehoiada to make with it the articles for the house of the LORD—utensils for the service and for the burnt offerings, dishes, and other objects of gold and silver. Throughout the days of Jehoiada, burnt offerings were presented regularly in the house of the LORD.
Da suka gama, suka kawo sauran kuɗin wa sarki da Yehohiyada, da su ne kuwa aka yi kayayyaki domin hidima da kuma domin hadayun ƙonawa, haka kuma kwanoni da sauran kayayyakin zinariya da azurfa. Muddin Yehohiyada yana raye, aka riƙa kawo hadayun ƙonawa a haikalin Ubangiji.
15 When Jehoiada was old and full of years, he died at the age of 130.
Yanzu Yehohiyada ya tsufa kuma cike da shekaru, ya kuwa mutu yana da shekara ɗari da talatin.
16 And Jehoiada was buried with the kings in the City of David, because he had done what was good in Israel for God and His temple.
Aka binne shi tare da sarakuna a cikin Birnin Dawuda, saboda kirkin da ya yi a Isra’ila wa Allah da haikalinsa.
17 After the death of Jehoiada, however, the officials of Judah came and paid homage to the king, and he listened to them.
Bayan mutuwar Yehohiyada, hafsoshin Yahuda suka zo suka yi mubaya’a wa sarki, ya kuma saurare su.
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and idols. So wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this guilt of theirs.
Suka yashe haikalin Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, suka bauta wa ginshiƙan Ashera da kuma gumaka. Saboda laifinsu, fushin Allah ya sauko a kan Yahuda da Urushalima.
19 Nevertheless, the LORD sent prophets to bring the people back to Him and to testify against them; but they would not listen.
Ko da yake Ubangiji ya aiki annabawa zuwa wurin mutane don su dawo da su gare shi, kuma ko da yake sun ba da shaida a kansu, ba su saurara ba.
20 Then the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, who stood up before the people and said to them, “This is what God says: ‘Why do you transgress the commandments of the LORD so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, He has forsaken you.’”
Sai Ruhun Allah ya sauko a kan Zakariya ɗan Yehohiyada firist. Ya tsaya a gaban mutane ya ce, “Ga abin da Allah ya ce, ‘Me ya sa ba ku yi biyayya da umarnan Ubangiji ba? Ba za ku yi nasara ba. Domin kun yashe Ubangiji, shi ma ya yashe ku.’”
21 But they conspired against Zechariah, and by order of the king, they stoned him in the courtyard of the house of the LORD.
Amma suka yi masa maƙarƙashiya, kuma ta wurin umarnin sarki suka jajjefe shi da duwatsu har ya mutu a filin haikalin Ubangiji.
22 Thus King Joash failed to remember the kindness that Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had extended to him. Instead, Joash killed Jehoiada’s son. As he lay dying, Zechariah said, “May the LORD see this and call you to account.”
Sarki Yowash bai tuna da alherin da Yehohiyada mahaifin Zakariya ya nuna masa ba, sai ya kashe ɗansa, wanda ya ce yayinda yake mutuwa, “Bari Ubangiji yă dubi wannan yă kuma sāka maka.”
23 In the spring, the army of Aram went to war against Joash. They entered Judah and Jerusalem and destroyed all the leaders of the people, and they sent all the plunder to their king in Damascus.
Da shekara ta kewaye, mayaƙan Aram suka yi gāba da Yowash suka kai hari wa Yahuda da Urushalima suka kuma kashe dukan shugabannin mutane, suka aika da dukan ganima zuwa ga sarkinsu a Damaskus.
24 Although the Aramean army had come with only a few men, the LORD delivered into their hand a very great army. Because Judah had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, judgment was executed on Joash.
Ko da yake mayaƙan Arameyawa sun zo da mutane kaɗan kawai, Ubangiji ya sa suka ci nasara a kan sojojin Yahuda mafi yawa, don mutanen Yahuda sun rabu da Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, aka kuma hukunta Yowash.
25 And when the Arameans had withdrawn, they left Joash severely wounded. His own servants conspired against him for shedding the blood of the son of Jehoiada the priest, and they killed him on his bed. So he died and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
Sa’ad da Arameyawa suka janye, suka bar Yowash da mummunan rauni. Hafsoshinsa suka haɗa baki a kansa saboda kisan ɗan Yehohiyada firist da ya yi, suka kashe shi a kan gadonsa. Ta haka ya mutu aka kuma binne shi makabartan sarakuna.
26 Those who conspired against Joash were Zabad son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Waɗanda suka haɗa bakin kuwa su ne Zabad ɗan Shimeyat wata mutuniyar Ammon da Yehozabad ɗan Shimrit wata mutuniyar Mowab.
27 The accounts of the sons of Joash, as well as the many pronouncements about him and about the restoration of the house of God, are indeed written in the Treatise of the Book of the Kings. And his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
Labarin’ya’yansa maza, annabce-annabce masu yawa game da shi, da tarihin gyaran haikalin Allah suna a rubuce a rubuce-rubuce a littafin sarakuna. Amaziya ɗansa kuwa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
