2 Chronicles 23
1 And in the seventh year Jehoiada has strengthened himself, and takes the heads of the hundreds, even Azariah son of Jeroham, and Ishmael son of Jehohanan, and Azariah son of Obed, and Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zichri, into the covenant with him.
Ary tamin’ ny taona fahafito Joiada nitombo hery ka nanao fanekena tamin’ ny mpifehy zato, dia Azaria, zanak’ i Jerohama, sy Isimaela, zanak’ i Johanana, sy Azaria, zanak’ i Obeda, sy Mahaseia, zanak’ i Adaia, ary Elisafata, zanak’ i Zikry.
2 And they go around in Judah, and gather the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and heads of the fathers of Israel, and come to Jerusalem,
Ary nitety an’ i Joda Ireo ka namory ny Levita avy tany amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda rehetra sy ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana tamin’ ny Isiraely, dia tonga tany Jerosalema ireo.
3 and all the assembly make a covenant in the house of God with the king, and he says to them, “Behold, the son of the king reigns, as YHWH spoke concerning the sons of David.
Ary ny olona rehetra vory tao dia nanao fanekena tamin’ ny mpanjaka tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra. Ary hoy Joiada taminy: Indro, ny zanaky ny mpanjaka no hanjaka araka ny efa nolazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida.
4 This [is] the thing that you do: the third of you, going in on the Sabbath, of the priests, and of the Levites, [are] for gatekeepers of the thresholds,
Izao no hataonareo: ny ampahatelonareo izay milatsaka amin’ ny Sabata, dia ny mpisorona sy ny Levita, ho mpiandry varavarana;
5 and the third [are] at the house of the king, and the third at the Foundation Gate, and all the people [are] in the courts of the house of YHWH.
ary ny ampahatelonareo ho ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka; ary ny ampahatelonareo ho eo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny fanorenana; ary ny vahoaka rehetra kosa dia ho eo amin’ ny kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
6 And none enter the house of YHWH except the priests, and those ministering of the Levites (they go in for they [are] holy), and all the people keep the watch of YHWH;
Fa aza avela hisy hiditra ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah afa-tsy ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izay manao fanompoam-pivavahana ihany; ireo ihany no hiditra, satria masìna ireo; fa ny vahoaka rehetra kosa dia hitandrina izay nasain’ i Jehovah hotandremana.
7 and the Levites have surrounded the king all around, each with his weapon in his hand, and he who has gone into the house is put to death; and be with the king in his coming in and in his going out.”
Ary ny Levita hanemitra manodidina ny mpanjaka, samy mitana ny fiadiany avy; ka na iza na iza miditra ao an-trano dia Vonoy, ary arahonareo ny mpanjaka, na miditra na mivoaka izy.
8 And the Levites and all Judah do according to all that Jehoiada the priest has commanded, and each takes his men going in on the Sabbath, with those going out on the Sabbath, for Jehoiada the priest has not let away the divisions.
Ary ny Levita sy ny Joda rehetra dia nanao araka izay rehetra nandidian’ i Joiada mpisorona azy, ka samy nitondra ny olom-peheziny izay nilatsaka tamin’ ny Sabata sy izay niala tamin’ ny Sabata izy; fa Joiada mpisorona tsy nandrava ny antokony.
9 And Jehoiada the priest gives to the heads of the hundreds the spears, and the shields, and the bucklers that [are] King David’s, that [are] in the house of God;
Ary nomen’ i Joiada mpisorona ho an’ ny mpifehy zato ny lefona sy ny ampinga kely sy ny ampinga lehibe, izay an’ i Davida mpanjaka ka tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra.
10 and he stations the whole of the people, and each [with] his dart in his hand, from the right shoulder of the house to the left shoulder of the house, at the altar, and at the house, by the king, all around.
Ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia nalahany, samy nitana ny fiadiany avy hanodidina ny mpanjaka hatramin’ ny lafiny ankavavan’ ny trano ka hatramin’ ny lafiny ankavia, hatramin’ ny alitara ka hatramin’ ny trano.
11 And they bring out the son of the king, and put the crown on him, and [give him] the Testimony, and cause him to reign; and Jehoiada and his sons anoint him, and say, “Let the king live!”
Dia nentiny nivoaka ny zanakalahin’ ny mpanjaka ka nampisatrohiny ny satro-boninahitra, sady notolorany ny teni-vavolombelona, ka dia nampanjakainy. Ary Joiada sy ny zanany nanosotra azy ka niantso hoe: Ho ela velona anie ny mpanjaka!
12 And Athaliah hears the voice of the people who are running, and who are praising the king, and she comes to the people [in] the house of YHWH,
Ary nony ren’ i Atalia ny tabataban’ ny vahoaka nifamoivoy sy niarahaba ny mpanjaka, dia mba nankao amin’ ny vahoaka tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah koa izy.
13 and sees, and behold, the king is standing by his pillar in the entrance, and the heads, and the trumpets [are] by the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing and shouting with trumpets, and the singers with instruments of song, and the teachers, to praise, and Athaliah tears her garments and says, “Conspiracy! Conspiracy!”
Ary hitany fa, indro, ny mpanjaka nitsangana teo amin’ ny fitoeran’ andriana teo amin’ ny fidirana, ary ny mpanapaka sy ny mpitsoka ny trompetra dia teo anilan’ ny mpanjaka; ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia nifaly sady nitsoka ny trompetra ary ny mpihira amin’ ny zava-maneno isan-karazany no nitarika ny hira fiderana. Dia nandriatra ny fitafiany Atalia ka niantso hoe: Fikomiana! fikomiana!
14 And Jehoiada the priest brings out the heads of the hundreds, inspectors of the force, and says to them, “Take her out from within the rows, and he who has gone after her is put to death by the sword”; for the priest said, “Do not put her to death [in] the house of YHWH.”
Fa nasain’ i Joiada navoaky ny kapiteny! mpifehy ny miaramila, izy, ka hoy izy tamin’ ireo: Avoahy eny ivelan’ ny filaharana izy, ary izay manaraka azy dia vonoy amin’ ny sabatra. Fa ny mpisorona efa nandrara hoe: Aza vonoina eto an-tranon’ i Jehovah izy.
15 And they make sides for her, and she comes to the entrance of the Horse Gate at the house of the king, and they put her to death there.
Ary ny olona nisava teo an-daniny roa, dia nankamin’ ny fidirana amin’ ny vavahadin-tsoavaly ravehivavy ka niditra tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka; dia novonoiny teo izy.
16 And Jehoiada makes a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, to be for a people to YHWH;
Ary Joiada nampanao fanekena ny vahoaka rehetra sy ny mpanjaka mbamin’ ny tenany mba ho olon’ i Jehovah.
17 and all the people enter the house of Ba‘al, and break it down, indeed, they have broken his altars and his images, and they have slain Mattan priest of Ba‘al before the altars.
Ary ny vahoaka vehetra niditra tao an-tranon’ i Bala ka nandrava azy; ny alitara sy ny endri-javatra dia notorotoroiny avokoa, ary Matana, mpisoron’ i Bala, novonoiny teo anoloan’ ny alitara.
18 And Jehoiada puts the offices of the house of YHWH into the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had apportioned over the house of YHWH, to cause the burnt-offerings of YHWH to ascend, as written in the Law of Moses, with joy, and with singing, by the hands of David;
Ary Joiada nanendry olona hitandrina ny tranon’ i Jehovah hofehezin’ ny Levita mpisorona izay nozarazarain’ i Davida ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, hanatitra ny fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah, araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, amin’ ny fifaliana sy ny fihirana, dia araka ny nasain’ i Davida natao.
19 and he stations the gatekeepers over the gates of the house of YHWH, and the unclean in anything do not go in.
Ary nalatsany teo am-bavahadin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ny mpiandry varavarana mba tsy hisy zavatra maloto na inona na inona ho tafiditra ao.
20 And he takes the heads of the hundreds, and the majestic ones, and the rulers among the people, and all the people of the land, and brings down the king from the house of YHWH, and they come in through the high gate to the house of the king, and cause the king to sit on the throne of the kingdom.
Dia nalainy ny mpifehy zato sy ny olona manan-kaja sy ny mpanapaka ny olona ary ny vahoaka rehetra; ary dia nentiny nidina avy tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ny mpanjaka, ka ny vavahady ambony no nalehany hankao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka; ary nametraka ny mpanjaka teo amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny fanjakana izy.
21 And all the people of the land rejoice, and the city has been quiet, and they have put Athaliah to death by the sword.
Dia nifaly ny vahoaka rehetra; ary nandry fahizay ny tanana, fa Atalia efa novonoiny tamin’ ny sabatra.
