< 2 Chronicles 24 >

1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
Fito taona no niainan’ i Joasy, fony izy vao nanjaka, efa efa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Zibia, avy any Beri-sheba.
2 And Joash did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Ary Joasy nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Joiada mpisorona.
3 And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begot sons and daughters.
Ary nangalan’ i Joiada vady roa Joasy, dia niteraka zazalahy sy zazavavy izy.
4 And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to restore the house of the LORD.
Ary nony afaka izany, dia mby ao am-pon i Joasy ny hanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
5 And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them: 'Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter.' Howbeit the Levites hastened it not.
Dia namory ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mandehana ho any amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda, ka mamoria vola isan-taona amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hanamboarana ny tranon’ Andriamanitrareo; ary hafainganonareo ny raharaha. Nefa ny Levita tsy nanafaingana izany.
6 And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and unto him: 'Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tent of the testimony?'
Ary ny mpanjaka dia nampaka an’ i Joiada, lohany tamin’ ireo, ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana no tsy nasainao nitondra ny hetra avy tany Joda sy Jerosalema ny Levita, araka ny didin’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah sy ny fiangonan’ ny Isiraely ho ao amin’ ny tabernakelin’ ny vavolombelona?
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the hallowed things of the house of the LORD did they bestow upon the Baalim.
Fa ny zanak’ i Atalia, ilay vehivavy ratsy fanahy, efa nandrava ny tranon’ Andriamanitra; ary ny zavatra masìna rehetra tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah koa dia efa nateriny ho an’ ireo Bala.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD.
Ary nasain’ ny mpanjaka nanao vata anankiray izy, dia napetrany teo ivelan’ ny vavahadin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah izany.
9 And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
Ary nandefa teny eran’ i Joda sy Jerosalema izy mba haterina ho an’ i Jehovah ny hetra izay nasain’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, haloan’ ny Isiraely, fony izy tany an-efitra.
10 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
Dia faly ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny vahoaka rehetra, ka dia nitondra izany ary nandatsaka azy tao amin’ ny vata ambara-pahatapiny.
11 And it was so, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the chief priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it back to its place. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
Ary tamin’ izay andro nitondran’ ny Levita ny vata ho any amin’ ny toniany voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka, raha hitany fa be ny vola, dia avy ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka sy ny toniany voatendrin’ ny mpisoronabe ka nanaisotra izay rehetra tao amin’ ny vata, dia nitondra ny vata niverina ho eo amin’ ny fitoerany indray. Toy izany no nataony mandrakariva, ka nahavory vola betsaka izy.
12 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to repair the house of the LORD.
Ary nomen’ ny mpanjaka sy Joiada ho an’ izay nanao ny raharahan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ny vola, ka nanakaraman’ ireo mpipai-bato sy mpandrafitra ary mpanefy vy sy varahina mba hanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
13 So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set up the house of God in its state, and strengthened it.
Dia nanao ny mpiasa, ka vita tsara ny asa; ary namboariny ho toy ny teo aloha ny tranon’ Andriamanitra ka nataony mafy.
14 And when they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels wherewith to minister, and buckets, and pans, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt-offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
Ary nony vitany izany, dia nentiny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka sy Joiada ny vola sisa ka nanaovany fanaka ho an’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia fanaka ho enti-manao fanompoam-pivavahana sy manatitra fanatitra ary lovia kely sy fanaka volamena sy volafotsy. Ary nanatitra fanatitra dorana tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah mandrakariva izy tamin’ ny andron’ i Joiada rehetra.
15 But Jehoiada waxed old and was full of days, and he died; a hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
Fa tratrantitra sy ela niainana Joiada vao maty: telo-polo amby zato taona izy vao maty.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and His house.
Ary nalevina tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida tao amin’ ny mpanjaka izy, satria nanao soa teo amin’ ny Isiraely ary tamin’ Andriamanitra sy ny tranony koa.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and prostrated themselves before the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
Ary rehefa maty Joiada, dia avy Ireo mpanapaka ny Joda ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka. Dia nihaino azy ny mpanjaka.
18 And they forsook the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
Ary nandao ny tranon’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, ireo ka nanompo ny Aseraha sy ny sampy dia nisy fahatezerana nihatra tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema noho ny fahadisoany.
19 Yet He sent prophets to them, to bring them back unto the LORD; and they admonished them, but they would not give ear.
Ary naniraka mpaminany tany aminy Izy hampiverina azy amin’ i Jehovah; dia nananatra azy mafy ireo, nefa tsy nety nihaino izy.
20 And the spirit of God clothed Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said unto them: 'Thus saith God: Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, He hath also forsaken you.'
Ary Zakaria, zanak’ i Joiada mpisorona, notsindrian’ ny Fanahin’ Andriamanitra, dia nitsangana teo amin’ ny avoavo teo anatrehan’ ny vahoaka izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ Andriamanitra: Nahoana ianareo no mandika ny didin’ i Jehovah ka tsy mahita fanambinana? Satria efa nahafoy an’ i Jehovah ianareo, dia nahafoy anareo kosa Izy.
21 And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD.
Dia nanao teti-dratsy ireo ka nitora-bato azy teo amin’ ny kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah araka ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka.
22 Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said: 'The LORD look upon it, and require it.'
Toy izany no tsy nahatsiarovan’ i Joasy mpanjaka ny soa nataon’ i Joiada rainy taminy, fa namono ny zanany izy. Ary nony efa ho faty Zakaria, dia niteny hoe: Jehovah anie hijery sy hamaly izao.
23 And it came to pass, when the year was come about, that the army of the Arameans came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
Ary nony efa niherina ny taona, dia avy ny miaramilan’ i Syria hiady taminy; ary tonga tany Joda sy Jerosalema izy, ka matiny avokoa ny mpanapaka rehetra tao amin’ ny olona, ary nampitondrainy ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Damaskosy ny babo rehetra.
24 For the army of the Arameans came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment upon Joash.
Fa vitsy ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana izay tonga teo, nefa Jehovah nanolotra miaramila maro ho eo an-tànany noho ny nahafoizany an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany. Toy izany no nahatanterahan’ ireo ny famaliana an’ i Joasy.
25 And when they were departed from him — for they left him in great diseases — his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died; and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
Ary nony nilaozany tamin’ ny faharariany mafy izy, ny mpanompony dia niodina taminy noho ny ran’ ny zanak’ i Joiada mpisorona, ka namono azy teo am-pandriany, dia maty izy; ary naleviny tany an-Tanànan’ i Davida ihany izy, nefa tsy tao amin’ ny fasan’ ny mpanjaka.
26 And these are they that conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Ary izao no niodina taminy: Zabada, zanak’ i Simata Amonita, sy Jozabada, zanak’ i Simrita Moabita.
27 Now concerning his sons, and the multitude of the burdens against him, and the rebuilding of the house of God, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
Ary ny amin’ ny zanany sy ny hamafin’ ny faminaniana nilaza ny loza hanjo azy ary ny nanamboarany ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjaka izany. Ary Amazia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
