< 2 Chronicles 23 >
1 And in the year seventh he strengthened himself Jehoiada and he took [the] commanders of the hundreds to Azariah [the] son of Jeroham and to Ishmael [the] son of Jehohanan and to Azariah [the] son of Obed and with Maaseiah [the] son of Adaiah and with Elishaphat [the] son of Zikri with himself in covenant.
Tetapi dalam tahun ketujuh Yoyada memberanikan diri dan ia mengadakan persepakatan dengan para kepala pasukan seratus, yakni: Azarya bin Yeroham, Ismael bin Yohanan, Azarya bin Obed. Maaseya bin Adaya, dan Elisafat bin Zikhri.
2 And they went around in Judah and they gathered the Levites from all [the] cities of Judah and [the] heads of the fathers of Israel and they came to Jerusalem.
Mereka mengelilingi Yehuda dan mengumpulkan orang-orang Lewi dari semua kota di Yehuda serta kepala-kepala puak orang Israel, dan mereka semua datang ke Yerusalem.
3 And it made all the assembly a covenant in [the] house of God with the king and he said to them here! [the] son of the king he will reign just as he spoke Yahweh on [the] sons of David.
Lalu seluruh jemaah itu mengikat perjanjian dengan raja di rumah Allah. Kata Yoyada kepada mereka: "Lihatlah, anak raja! Biarlah ia memerintah, seperti yang telah difirmankan TUHAN tentang anak-anak Daud!
4 This [is] the thing which you will do the third [part] of you [who] come of the sabbath to the priests and to the Levites [will become] [the] gatekeepers of the thresholds.
Inilah yang harus kamu lakukan: sepertiga dari kamu, yakni yang selesai bertugas pada hari Sabat, baik imam maupun orang Lewi, haruslah menjadi penunggu pintu,
5 And the third [part] [will be] at [the] house of the king and the third [part] [will be] at [the] gate of the foundation and all the people [will be] in [the] courts of [the] house of Yahweh.
sepertiga lagi haruslah berada di istana raja, dan sepertiga pula di pintu gerbang Dasar, sedang seluruh rakyat haruslah berada di pelataran rumah TUHAN.
6 And may not anyone go [the] house of Yahweh that except the priests and those [who] are serving of the Levites they they will go for [are] holiness they and all the people they will keep [the] duty of Yahweh.
Siapapun tidak boleh memasuki rumah TUHAN selain dari pada para imam dan orang-orang Lewi yang bertugas. Mereka boleh masuk, karena mereka kudus, tetapi seluruh rakyat haruslah mentaati peraturan TUHAN.
7 And they will surround the Levites the king all around each man and weapons his in hand his and the [one who] comes into the house he will be put to death and be with the king when comes he and when goes out he.
Dalam pada itu orang-orang Lewi haruslah mengelilingi raja dari segala penjuru, masing-masing dengan senjatanya di tangannya, dan siapa yang memasuki rumah itu haruslah dibunuh. Dan baiklah kamu menyertai raja setiap kali ia keluar atau masuk."
8 And they did the Levites and all Judah according to all that he had commanded Jehoiada the priest and they took each men his [who] were coming of the sabbath with [who] were going out of the sabbath for not he dismissed Jehoiada the priest the divisions.
Orang-orang Lewi dan seluruh Yehuda melakukan tepat seperti yang diperintahkan imam Yoyada. Masing-masing mengambil orang-orangnya yang selesai bertugas pada hari Sabat bersama-sama dengan orang-orang yang masuk bertugas pada hari itu, karena imam Yoyada tidak membebaskan rombongan-rombongan itu.
9 And he gave Jehoiada the priest to [the] commanders of the hundreds the spears and the shields and the shields which [had belonged] to the king David which [were] [the] house of God.
Lalu imam Yoyada memberikan kepada para kepala pasukan seratus itu tombak-tombak, utar-utar dan perisai-perisai kepunyaan raja Daud yang ada di rumah Allah.
10 And he stationed all the people and each - weapon his [was] in hand his from [the] side of the house south to [the] side of the house north to the altar and to the house at the king all around.
Ia menempatkan seluruh rakyat, masing-masing dengan lembing di tangannya, di lambung kanan sampai ke lambung kiri rumah itu, dengan mengelilingi mezbah dan rumah itu untuk melindungi raja.
11 And they brought out [the] son of the king and they put on him the crown and the testimony and they made king him and they anointed him Jehoiada and sons his and they said may he live the king.
Sesudah itu Yoyada dan anak-anaknya membawa anak raja itu ke luar, mengenakan jejamang kepadanya dan memberikan hukum Allah kepadanya. Mereka menobatkan dia menjadi raja serta mengurapinya, lalu berserulah rakyat: "Hiduplah raja!"
12 And she heard Athaliah [the] sound of the people who were running and who were praising the king and she came to the people [the] house of Yahweh.
Ketika Atalya mendengar pekik rakyat yang berlari-lari menyambut raja dan memuji-muji dia, pergilah ia mendapatkan rakyat itu ke dalam rumah TUHAN.
13 And she saw and there! the king [was] standing at pillar his at the entrance and the officials and the trumpets [were] with the king and all [the] people of the land [was] joyful and [was] giving a blast on trumpets and the singers with [the] instruments of song [were] leading to praise and she tore Athaliah clothes her and she said treason treason.
Lalu dilihatnyalah raja berdiri dekat tiangnya pada jalan masuk, sedang para pemimpin dengan para pemegang nafiri ada dekat raja. Dan seluruh rakyat negeri bersukaria sambil meniup nafiri, sedang para penyanyi dengan alat-alat musik mereka, memimpin nyanyian puji-pujian. Maka Atalya mengoyakkan pakaiannya sambil berkata: "Khianat, khianat!"
14 And he sent out Jehoiada the priest [the] commanders of the hundreds - [the] officers of the army and he said to them bring out her to from between the ranks and the [one who] goes after her he will be put to death with the sword for he had said the priest not you must put to death her [the] house of Yahweh.
Tetapi imam Yoyada menyuruh keluar para kepala pasukan seratus, yakni orang-orang yang mengepalai tentara, katanya kepada mereka: "Bawalah dia keluar dari antara barisan! Siapa yang memihak kepadanya harus dibunuh dengan pedang!" Sebab imam itu telah berkata tadinya: "Jangan kamu membunuhnya di rumah TUHAN!"
15 And they put to her hands and she went to [the] entrance of [the] gate of the horses [the] house of the king and they put to death her there.
Lalu mereka menangkap perempuan itu. Pada waktu ia sampai ke jalan masuk istana raja pada pintu gerbang Kuda, dibunuhlah ia di situ.
16 And he made Jehoiada a covenant between himself and between all the people and between the king to become a people of Yahweh.
Kemudian Yoyada mengikat perjanjian antara dia dengan segenap rakyat dan raja, bahwa mereka menjadi umat TUHAN.
17 And they went all the people [the] house of Baal and they pulled down it and altars its and images its they broke and Mattan [the] priest of Baal they killed before the altars.
Sesudah itu masuklah seluruh rakyat ke rumah Baal, lalu merobohkannya; mereka memecahkan mezbah-mezbahnya dan patung-patungnya dan membunuh Matan, imam Baal, di depan mezbah-mezbah itu.
18 And he put Jehoiada [the] oversight of [the] house of Yahweh in [the] hand of the priests the Levites whom he had assigned David over [the] house of Yahweh to offer up [the] burnt offerings of Yahweh according to [what] is written in [the] law of Moses with joy and with song on [the] hands of David.
Kemudian Yoyada menyerahkan pengawasan atas rumah TUHAN kepada imam-imam dan orang-orang Lewi, yang telah dibagi-bagi dalam rombongan oleh Daud untuk bertugas di dalam rumah TUHAN, yakni untuk mempersembahkan korban bakaran kepada TUHAN--seperti tertulis di dalam Taurat Musa--dengan sukaria dan dengan nyanyian menurut petunjuk Daud.
19 And he stationed the gatekeepers at [the] gates of [the] house of Yahweh and not he came a [person] unclean to any matter.
Juga ditempatkannya penunggu-penunggu pintu pada pintu-pintu gerbang rumah TUHAN, supaya dalam hal apapun juga jangan masuk seseorang yang najis.
20 And he took [the] commanders of the hundreds and the nobles and the rulers over the people and - all [the] people of the land and he brought down the king from [the] house of Yahweh and they came in [the] middle of [the] gate upper [the] house of the king and they made sit the king on [the] throne of royalty.
Sesudah itu ia mengajak para kepala pasukan seratus, para pemuka, para pemerintah rakyat dan seluruh rakyat negeri, lalu membawa raja turun dari rumah TUHAN; mereka masuk ke istana raja melalui pintu gerbang Atas, lalu mendudukkan raja ke atas takhta kerajaan.
21 And they rejoiced all [the] people of the land and the city it was at peace and Athaliah they had put to death with the sword.
Bersukarialah seluruh rakyat negeri dan amanlah kota itu, setelah Atalya mati dibunuh dengan pedang.
