2 Kings 11
1 And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she rose up and destroyed all the royal seed.
Rĩrĩa Athalia nyina wa Ahazia onire atĩ mũriũ nĩakua-rĩ, agĩthiĩ na mbere kũũraga andũ othe a nyũmba yothe ya ũthamaki.
2 But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, [and hid] him and his nurse in the bedchamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
No rĩrĩ, Jehosheba, mwarĩ wa Mũthamaki Jehoramu na mwarĩ wa nyina na Ahazia, akĩoya Joashu mũrũ wa Ahazia akĩmweheria kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a mũthamaki arĩa maakirie kũũragwo. Akĩmũiga hamwe na mũreri wake kanyũmba ga gũkoma, akĩmũhitha kuuma kũrĩ Athalia; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joashu ndaigana kũũragwo.
3 And he was with her hid in the house of Jehovah six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
Aikarire ahithĩtwo hamwe na mũreri wake thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova mĩaka ĩtandatũ ĩrĩa Athalia aathamakire bũrũri ũcio.
4 And in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains of the hundreds, of the bodyguard and the couriers, and brought them to him into the house of Jehovah, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of Jehovah, and shewed them the king's son.
Mwaka-inĩ wa mũgwanja, Jehoiada agĩtũmanĩra anene a ikundi arĩa maathaga thigari igana rĩmwe, thĩinĩ wa andũ arĩa meetagwo Akari, na arangĩri nao magĩũka kũrĩ we kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova. Nake akĩgĩa kĩrĩkanĩro nao na akĩmehĩtithĩria kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova. Agĩcooka akĩmoonia mũriũ wa mũthamaki.
5 And he commanded them saying, This is the thing which ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king's house;
Akĩmaatha akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũgwĩka ũũ: Inyuĩ arĩa othe mũgaakorwo mũrĩ wĩra mũthenya wa thabatũ-rĩ, gĩcunjĩ kĩmwe kĩanyu gĩa ithatũ gĩkaarangĩra nyũmba ya ũthamaki,
6 and a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the couriers; and ye shall keep the watch of the house for a defence.
nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩrangĩre Kĩhingo gĩa Suri, ningĩ gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩkorwo kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thuutha wa arangĩri arĩa mateithanagia kũrangĩra hekarũ,
7 And the two parts of you, all those that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of Jehovah about the king.
na inyuĩ andũ arĩa makoragwo thĩinĩ wa ikundi icio ingĩ igĩrĩ, arĩa matakoragwo wĩra mũthenya wa thabatũ-rĩ, othe makaarangĩra hekarũ nĩ ũndũ wa mũthamaki.
8 And ye shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that comes within the ranks shall be put to death; and ye shall be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in.
Mũikare mũthiũrũrũkĩirie mũthamaki, o mũndũ anyiitĩte indo ciake cia mbaara na guoko. Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkaamũkuhĩrĩria no nginya ooragwo. Mũikare hakuhĩ na mũthamaki o harĩa hothe angĩthiĩ.”
9 And the captains of the hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go forth on the sabbath, and they came to Jehoiada the priest.
Nao anene a ita arĩa maathaga ikundi cia andũ igana rĩmwe magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehoiada, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai aathanĩte. O mũnene akĩoya andũ ake, arĩa maathiiaga wĩra mũthenya ũcio wa thabatũ na arĩa moimagĩra wĩra hĩndĩ ĩyo, othe magĩũka kũrĩ Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
10 And the priest gave to the captains of the hundreds king David's spears and shields which were in the house of Jehovah.
Nake akĩhe anene acio matimũ na ngo iria ciarĩ cia Mũthamaki Daudi, iria ciakoragwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
11 And the couriers stood by the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, toward the altar and the house.
Nao arangĩri, o mũndũ arĩ na indo ciake cia mbaara, magĩthiũrũrũkĩria mũthamaki hau hakuhĩ na kĩgongona, na magĩthiũrũrũkĩria hekarũ kuuma mwena wa gũthini nginya mwena wa gathigathini wayo.
12 And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, Long live the king!
Jehoiada akĩrehe mũrũ wa mũthamaki akĩmwĩkĩra thũmbĩ, akĩmũnengera Ibuku rĩa Kĩrĩkanĩro, na akĩmwanĩrĩra atĩ nĩwe mũthamaki. Makĩmũitĩrĩria maguta, nao andũ makĩhũũra hĩ na makĩanĩrĩra makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki arotũũra nginya tene!”
13 And Athaliah heard the noise of the couriers [and] of the people; and she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.
Rĩrĩa Athalia aaiguire inegene rĩa andũ na arangĩri, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ andũ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
14 And she looked, and behold, the king stood on the dais, according to the custom, and the princes and the trumpeters were by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets. And Athaliah rent her garments and cried, Conspiracy! Conspiracy!
Agĩcũthĩrĩria na akĩona mũthamaki arũgamĩte gĩtugĩ-inĩ o ta ũrĩa mũtugo warĩ. Nao anene na ahuhi tũrumbeta maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ na mũthamaki, nao andũ othe a bũrũri magakena makĩhuhaga tũrumbeta. Nake Athalia agĩtembũranga nguo ciake cia igũrũ, na akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ungumania! Ungumania!”
15 And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Lead her forth without the ranks; and whosoever follows her, slay with the sword; for the priest said, Let her not be put to death in the house of Jehovah.
Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩatha anene a ita a thigari igana igana arĩa maarĩ arũgamĩrĩri a mbũtũ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũrutũrũrei, mũmũrehe arĩ gatagatĩ ga thigari, na mũndũ o wothe ũngĩmuuma thuutha, ooragwo.” Nĩgũkorwo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩoigĩte atĩrĩ, “Ndakooragĩrwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.”
16 And they made way for her, and she went by the way by which the horses entered the king's house, and there was she put to death.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũnyiitĩra harĩa mbarathi ciatoonyagĩra igĩthiĩ nja cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki, makĩmũũragĩra hau.
17 And Jehoiada made a covenant between Jehovah and the king and the people, that they should be the people of Jehovah; and between the king and the people.
Nake Jehoiada akĩgĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro gatagatĩ ka Jehova, na mũthamaki, o na andũ, atĩ o nĩmegũtuĩka andũ a Jehova. Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩthondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gatagatĩ ka mũthamaki na andũ.
18 Then all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and broke it down: his altars and his images they broke in pieces completely, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of Jehovah.
Nao andũ othe a bũrũri magĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Baali na makĩmĩtharia. Makiunanga igongona na mĩhianano, na makĩũragĩra Matani ũrĩa warĩ mũthĩnjĩri-ngai wa Baali hau mbere ya igongona icio. Ningĩ Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩiga arangĩri hau hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
19 And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the bodyguard, and the couriers, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of Jehovah, and came by the way through the gate of the couriers into the king's house. And he sat upon the throne of the kings.
Nake agĩthiĩ na anene a ita arĩa maarũgamagĩrĩra ikundi cia thigari igana igana, na Akari, na arangĩri, o hamwe na andũ othe a bũrũri, na marĩ hamwe makĩruta mũthamaki hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova makĩmũtwara nyũmba ya ũthamaki matoonyeire kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa arangĩri. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki.
20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they had slain Athaliah with the sword [beside] the king's house.
Nao andũ othe a bũrũri magĩkena. Narĩo itũũra rĩkĩhoorera, tondũ Athalia nĩarĩkĩtie kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki.
21 Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
Joashu aarĩ wa mĩaka mũgwanja rĩrĩa aambĩrĩirie gwathana.
