2 Kings 11
1 Now, when, Athaliah, mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
Rĩrĩa Athalia nyina wa Ahazia onire atĩ mũriũ nĩakua-rĩ, agĩthiĩ na mbere kũũraga andũ othe a nyũmba yothe ya ũthamaki.
2 But Jehosheba daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were being slain—him and his nurse, into the bedchamber, —so she hid him from the face of Athaliah, 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, in the house of Yahweh, hiding himself, six years, —while, Athaliah, was reigning over the land.
Aikarire ahithĩtwo hamwe na mũreri wake thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova mĩaka ĩtandatũ ĩrĩa Athalia aathamakire bũrũri ũcio.
4 But, in the seventh year, Jehoiada sent and took the captains over hundreds, of the Carian body-guard, and of the runners, and brought them unto him, in the house of Yahweh, —and, when he had solemnised a Covenant with them, and put them on oath, in the house of Yahweh, then shewed he 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 commanded them, saying—This, is the thing which ye must do, —A third part of you, will be coming in on the sabbath, and keeping the watch of the house of the king;
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, in the side-gate; and, a third, in the gate behind the runners, —so shall ye keep the watch of the house, by turns.
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, two parts of you, are all that are going out on the sabbath, —so shall ye keep the watch of the house of Yahweh, as touching 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 Thus shall ye encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, and, he that cometh within the ranks, let him be slain, —so be ye with the king, when he cometh out and when he goeth 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 hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they took every man his men who were coming in on the sabbath, with them who were going out on the sabbath, —and came unto 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 unto the captains of hundreds the spears and the shields which belonged to King David, —which were in the house of Yahweh.
Nake akĩhe anene acio matimũ na ngo iria ciarĩ cia Mũthamaki Daudi, iria ciakoragwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
11 And the runners stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right corner of the house, as far as the left corner of the house, by the altar and the house, —near the king, round about.
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 Then brought he forth the king’s son, and set upon him the crown, and the testimony, and they made him king, and anointed him, —and clapped their hands, and said—May the king live!
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, when Athaliah heard the noise of the runners, the people, then came she in unto the people, in the house of Yahweh,
Rĩrĩa Athalia aaiguire inegene rĩa andũ na arangĩri, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ andũ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
14 and looked, and lo! the king, standing by the pillar, as the custom was, and the captains and the trumpeters, by the king, and, all the people of the land, rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets, —so Athaliah rent her garments, and cried out—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 hundreds—officers of the force, and said unto them—Take her forth into the inside of the ranks, and, he that cometh in after her, [ye are] to slay with the sword. For the priest said, Let her not be slain, in the house of Yahweh.
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 So they made way for her, and she entered the road by which the horses approached the house of the king, and was slain there.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũnyiitĩra harĩa mbarathi ciatoonyagĩra igĩthiĩ nja cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki, makĩmũũragĩra hau.
17 And Jehoiada solemnised a covenant between Yahweh, and the king, and the people, that they should become a people unto Yahweh, —also 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 And all the people of the land entered the house of Baal, and brake it down, his altars and his images, brake they in pieces, utterly, and, Mattan the priest of Baal, they slew before the altars, —and the priest appointed officers over the house of Yahweh.
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 hundreds and the Carian bodyguard, and the runners, and all the people of the land, and they brought down the king out of the house of Yahweh, and they came, by way of the gate of the runners, into the house of the king, —and he took his seat on 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, had rest, —when they had put, Athaliah, to death with the sword, in the house of the king.
Nao andũ othe a bũrũri magĩkena. Narĩo itũũra rĩkĩhoorera, tondũ Athalia nĩarĩkĩtie kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki.
21 Seven years old, was Jehoash, when he began to reign.
Joashu aarĩ wa mĩaka mũgwanja rĩrĩa aambĩrĩirie gwathana.
