2 Kings 11
1 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to annihilate all the royal heirs.
Lè Atali, manman Okozyas, vin konnen yo te touye pitit li a, li bay lòd pou yo touye tout rès fanmi wa a.
2 But Jehosheba daughter of King Joram, the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the sons of the king who were being murdered. She put him and his nurse in a bedroom to hide him from Athaliah, and he was not killed.
Men lè yo t'ap touye pitit wa yo, Jocheba, pitit fi wa Joram, sè menm papa ak Okozyas la, te pran Joas, yonn nan pitit gason Okozyas yo, li kache l' ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la nan yon chanm kote moun dòmi nan tanp lan. Yo pa kite Atali wè Joas. Se konsa Joas pa mouri.
3 And Joash remained hidden with his nurse in the house of the LORD for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.
Joas rete kache nan tanp lan ansanm ak moun ki te sèvi l' nouris la pandan sizan. Atali menm t'ap gouvènen peyi a.
4 Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada sent for the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, and the guards, and had them brought into the house of the LORD. There he made a covenant with them and put them under oath. He showed them the king’s son
Sou setyèm lanne a, Jeojada, prèt la, fè chache tout kaptenn gadkò wa a ak tout chèf gad palè yo, li fè yo vin jwenn li nan tanp lan. La, li pran dizon ak yo, li fè yo fè sèman epi li moutre yo Joas, pitit wa a.
5 and commanded them, “This is what you are to do: A third of you who come on duty on the Sabbath shall guard the royal palace,
Apre sa, li ba yo lòd sa a: —Men sa nou pral fè! N'ap separe moun k'ap vin pran pòs jou repo a an twa gwoup menm fòs, yon gwoup va fè pòs nan palè wa a,
6 a third shall be at the gate of Sur, and a third at the gate behind the guards. You are to take turns guarding the temple—
yon lòt gwoup va kanpe bò pòtay Sou a, dènye gwoup la va rete bò pòtay ki dèyè lòt gad yo. Y'a moute lagad nan palè wa a yonn apre lòt.
7 the two divisions that would go off duty on the Sabbath are to guard the house of the LORD for the king.
De gwoup gad k'ap leve pòs jou repo a va moute gad nan tanp Seyè a pou pwoteje wa a.
8 You must surround the king with weapons in hand, and anyone who approaches the ranks must be put to death. You must stay close to the king wherever he goes.”
N'a fè yon gwo wonn ak wa a nan mitan. N'a kenbe zam nou nan men nou. Si yon moun ta vle pase nan mitan nou se pou nou touye l'. Kote wa a va fè, n'a fè avè l'.
9 So the commanders of hundreds 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—and came to Jehoiada the priest.
Kaptenn yo fè tou sa Jeojada, prèt la, te ba yo lòd fè a. Yo pran tout gad yo, ni sa ki t'ap pran pòs jou repo a, ni sa ki t'ap leve pòs jou sa a tou, y' al jwenn Jeojada, prèt la.
10 Then the priest gave to the commanders of hundreds the spears and shields of King David from the house of the LORD.
Jeojada pran frenn ak plak pwotèj wa David yo ki te nan Tanp Seyè a, li bay kaptenn gad yo kenbe.
11 And the guards stood with weapons in hand surrounding the king by the altar and the temple, from the south side to the north side of the temple.
Gad yo menm, yo chak ak zam yo nan men yo, li ranje yo tout devan Tanp lan depi sou bò dwat rive sou bò gòch, yo fè wonn lotèl la pou pwoteje wa a.
12 Then Jehoiada brought out the king’s son, put the crown on him, presented him with the Testimony, and proclaimed him king. They anointed him, and the people clapped their hands and declared, “Long live the king!”
Lè sa a, Jeojada fè pitit wa a soti. Li mete kouwòn lan sou tèt li, li renmèt li kontra Bondye a. Li vide lwil sou tèt li epi li deklare Joas wa. Tout moun bat bravo, yo pran rele: Viv wa a!
13 When Athaliah heard the noise from the guards and the people, she went out to the people in the house of the LORD.
Lè Atali tande tout bri gad yo ak pèp la t'ap fè, li kouri al nan tanp lan kote moun yo te ye a.
14 And she looked out and saw the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom. The officers and trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and screamed, “Treason! Treason!”
Li wè wa a kanpe bò gwo poto a, jan sa te toujou fèt la. Tout chèf yo ak tout mizisyen yo te bò kote wa a, tout pèp la te kontan, yo t'ap kònen twonpèt. Lè Atali wè sa, kè l' kase. Li chire rad sou li, li rele: —Men yo moute yon konplo sou do m!
15 And Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of hundreds in charge of the army, “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.”
Lamenm Jeojada, prèt la, bay kaptenn ki t'ap kòmande lame a lòd sa a: —Pase nan mitan de ran sòlda yo avè l', mennen l' deyò. Touye nenpòt moun nou wè k'ap swiv li. Prèt la pa t' vle pou yo touye l' nan Tanp Seyè a.
16 So they seized Athaliah as she reached the horses’ entrance to the palace grounds, and there she was put to death.
Yo pran Atali, yo mennen l' nan palè wa a bò Pòtay Chwal yo. Se la yo touye l'.
17 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people that they would be the LORD’s people. He also made a covenant between the king and the people.
Apre sa, Jeojada, prèt la, pase yon kontra ant Seyè a ak wa a ansanm ak pèp la. Dapre kontra a, yo rekonèt se pèp Seyè a yo ye. Li pase yon kontra tou ant wa a ak pèp la.
18 So all the people of the land went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and idols to pieces, and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal in front of the altars. And Jehoiada the priest posted guards for the house of the LORD.
Lèfini, tout pèp la al nan tanp Baal la, yo demoli l'. Yo kraze tout lotèl yo ak tout estati yo byen kraze. Yo touye Matan, prèt Baal la, devan lotèl yo. Jeojada mete gad veye Tanp Seyè a.
19 He took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, the guards, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD and entered the royal palace by way of the Gate of the Guards. Then Joash took his seat on the royal throne,
Apre sa, li menm, kaptenn yo, gad wa yo, gad palè yo ak tout pèp la, yo soti nan Tanp lan ansanm ak wa a, y' ale nan palè wa a. Yo pase antre nan pòt gad yo. Joas al chita sou fotèy wa a.
20 and all the people of the land rejoiced. And the city was quiet, because Athaliah had been put to the sword at the royal palace.
Tout pèp la te kontan anpil. Yo te touye Atali ak kout nepe nan palè wa a. Apre sa, pa t' gen yon ti bri nan tout lavil la.
21 Joash was seven years old when he became king.
Joas te gen sètan lè l' moute wa.
