2 Kings 11
1 Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she had all the rest of the seed of the kingdom put to death.
Athalia vero mater Ochoziæ, videns mortuum filium suum, surrexit, et interfecit omne semen regium.
2 But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, secretly took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, with the woman who took care of him, away from among the king's sons who were put to death, and put him in the bedroom; and they kept him safe from Athaliah, so that he was not put to death.
Tollens autem Iosaba filia regis Ioram, soror Ochoziæ, Ioas filium Ochoziæ, furata est eum de medio filiorum regis, qui interficiebantur, et nutricem eius de triclinio: et abscondit eum a facie Athaliæ ut non interficeretur.
3 And for six years she kept him safe in the house of the Lord, while Athaliah was ruling over the land.
Eratque cum ea sex annis clam in domo Domini: porro Athalia regnavit super terram.
4 Then in the seventh year, Jehoiada sent for the captains of hundreds of the Carians, and the armed men, and taking them into the house of the Lord, made an agreement with them, and made them take an oath in the house of the Lord, and let them see the king's son.
Anno autem septimo misit Ioiada, et assumens centuriones, et milites introduxit ad se in templum Domini, pepigitque cum eis fœdus: et adiurans eos in domo Domini, ostendit eis filium regis:
5 And he gave them orders, saying, This is what you are to do: the third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath and keep the watch of the king's house,
et præcepit illis, dicens: Iste est sermo, quem facere debetis:
Tertia pars vestrum introeat sabbato, et observet excubias domus regis. Tertia autem pars sit ad portam Sur, et tertia pars sit ad portam, quæ est post habitaculum scutariorum: et custodietis excubias domus Messa.
7 And the two divisions of you, who go out on the Sabbath and keep the watch of the house of the Lord,
Duæ vero partes e vobis, omnes egredientes sabbato, custodiant excubias domus Domini circa regem.
8 Will make a circle round the king, every man being armed; and whoever comes inside your lines is to be put to death; keep with the king, when he goes out and when he comes in.
Et vallabitis eum, habentes arma in manibus vestris: si quis autem ingressus fuerit septum templi, interficiatur: eritisque cum rege introeunte et egrediente.
9 And the captains of hundreds did as Jehoiada the priest gave them orders; every one took with him his men, those who came in and those who went out on the Sabbath, and they came in to Jehoiada the priest.
Et fecerunt centuriones iuxta omnia, quæ præceperat eis Ioiada sacerdos: et assumentes singuli viros suos, qui ingrediebantur sabbatum, cum his qui egrediebantur sabbato, venerunt ad Ioiadam sacerdotem.
10 And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the spears and body-covers which had been King David's, and which were kept in the house of the Lord.
Qui dedit eis hastas, et arma regis David, quæ erant in domo Domini.
11 Then the armed men took up their positions, every man with his instruments of war in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left, round about the altar and the house.
Et steterunt singuli habentes arma in manu sua a parte templi dextera, usque ad partem sinistram altaris, et ædis, circum regem.
12 Then he made the king's son come out, and put the crown on him and the arm-bands, and made him king, and put the holy oil on him; and they all, making sounds of joy with their hands, said, Long life to the king.
Produxitque filium regis, et posuit super eum diadema, et testimonium: feceruntque eum regem, et unxerunt: et plaudentes manu, dixerunt: Vivat rex.
13 Now Athaliah, hearing the noise made by the people, came to the people in the house of the Lord;
Audivit autem Athalia vocem populi currentis: et ingressa ad turbas in templum Domini,
14 And looking, she saw the king in his regular place by the pillar, and the captains and the horns near him; and all the people of the land giving signs of joy and sounding the horns. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, gave a cry, saying, Broken faith, broken faith!
vidit regem stantem super tribunal iuxta morem, et cantores, et tubas prope eum, omnemque populum terræ lætantem, et canentem tubis: et scidit vestimenta sua, clamavitque: Coniuratio, coniuratio.
15 Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to those who were placed in authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword, for he said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.
Præcepit autem Ioiada centurionibus, qui erant super exercitum, et ait eis: Educite eam extra septa templi, et quicumque eam secutus fuerit, feriatur gladio. Dixerat enim sacerdos: Non occidatur in templo Domini.
16 So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the horses, and there she was put to death.
Imposueruntque ei manus, et impegerunt eam per viam introitus equorum, iuxta palatium, et interfecta est ibi.
17 And Jehoiada made an agreement between the Lord and the king and the people, that they would be the Lord's people; and in the same way between the king and the people.
Pepigit ergo Ioiada fœdus inter Dominum, et inter regem, et inter populum, ut esset populus Domini, et inter regem et populum.
18 Then all the people of the land went to the house of Baal and had it pulled down: its altars and images were all broken to bits, and Mattan, the priest of Baal, they put to death before the altars. And the priest put overseers over the Lord's house.
Ingressusque est omnis populus terræ templum Baal, et destruxerunt aras eius, et imagines contriverunt valide: Mathan quoque sacerdotem Baal occiderunt coram altari. Et posuit sacerdos custodias in domo Domini.
19 Then he took the captains of hundreds, and the Carians, and the armed men, and all the people of the land; and they came down with the king from the house of the Lord, through the doorway of the armed men, to the king's house. And he took his place on the seat of the kings.
Tulitque centuriones, et Cerethi et Phelethi legiones, et omnem populum terræ, deduxeruntque regem de domo Domini: et venerunt per viam portæ scutariorum in palatium, et sedit super thronum regum.
20 So all the people of the land were glad, and the town was quiet; and they had put Athaliah to death with the sword at the king's house.
Lætatusque est omnis populus terræ, et civitas conquievit: Athalia autem occisa est gladio in domo regis.
21 And Jehoash was seven years old when he became king.
Septemque annorum erat Ioas, cum regnare cœpisset.
