2 Kings 11

1 And Athaliah [the] mother of Ahaziah (she saw *Q(K)*) that he was dead son her and she arose and she destroyed all [the] offspring of royalty.

Bere a Yudahene Ahasia, ne na Atalia tee sɛ ne babarima no awu no, ɔkɔe sɛ ɔrekɔsɛe adehyebusua a aka no.

2 And she took Jehosheba [the] daughter of the king Joram [the] sister of Ahaziah Joash [the] son of Ahaziah and she stole him from among [the] sons of the king (who were about to be put to death *Q(K)*) him and suckling-nurse his in [the] chamber of the beds and they hid him from before Athaliah and not he was put to death.

Nanso Ahasia nuabea Yehoseba a na ɔyɛ ɔhene Yehoram babea no faa Ahasia ba abarimaa ketewa Yoas, yii no fii ɔhene no mma a anka wɔrebekunkum wɔn no mu. Yehoseba de Yoas ne ne gyigyefo kohintaw pia bi mu, sɛnea Atalia renhu no. Ɛno nti, wɔannya abofra no ankum no.

3 And he was with her [the] house of Yahweh hiding himself six years and Athaliah [was] reigning over the land.

Yoas ne nea ogyigye no no hintaw wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ mfe asia, bere a na Atalia di ɔman no so no.

4 And in the year seventh he sent Jehoiada and he took - [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) of the Carian[s] and of the runners and he brought them to himself [the] house of Yahweh and he made to them a covenant and he made to swear an oath with them in [the] house of Yahweh and he showed them [the] son of the king.

Atalia adedi mfe ason mu no, ɔsɔfo Yehoiada soma ma wɔkɔfaa Karifo asraafo apaafo ne awɛmfo baa Awurade asɔredan mu hɔ. Ɔne wɔn yɛɛ nhyehyɛe, na ɔma wɔkaa ntam sɛ wobedi nokware wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu hɔ. Afei, ɔde ɔhene babarima Yoas kyerɛɛ wɔn.

5 And he commanded them saying this [is] the thing which you will do! the third [part] of you [who] come the sabbath and [who] keep [the] watch of [the] house of the king.

Yehoiada ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Nea ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ ni. Mo mu nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako a moyɛ adwuma homeda no bɛwɛn ahemfi no.

6 And the third [part] [will be] at [the] gate of Sur and the third [part] [will be] at the gate behind the runners and you will keep [the] watch of the house by turns.

Nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako nso, nwɛn wɔ Sur pon no ano. Na nkyɛmu abiɛsa mu baako a aka no nso, bɛwɛn ahemfi no akyi. Saa akuw abiɛsa yi nyinaa bɛwɛn ahemfi no.

7 And [the] two the hands in you all [those who] go out the sabbath and they will keep [the] watch of [the] house of Yahweh to the king.

Akuw abien a wɔamma adwuma homeda no nso bɛwɛn Awurade asɔredan no ama ɔhene no.

8 And you will surround the king all around everyone and weapons his in hand his and the [one who] comes into the ranks he will be put to death and be with the king when goes out he and when comes he.

Mobɛyɛ ɔhene ho awɛmfo kuw, a mukurakura mo akode. Onipa biara a wɔmmaa no kwan a ɔbɛbɛn mo no, munkum no. Bere biara, mommɛn ɔhene no.”

9 And they did [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) according to all that he commanded Jehoiada the priest and they took each men his [those who] came the sabbath with [those who] went out the sabbath and they came to Jehoiada the priest.

Na asahene no dii biribiara a ɔsɔfo Yehoiada hyɛɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ no so pɛpɛɛpɛ. Asahene no faa asraafo a wɔbaa adwuma homeda no ne wɔn a wɔakɔ adwuma da no no. Wɔde wɔn nyinaa baa ɔsɔfo Yehoiada anim.

10 And he gave the priest to [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) the spear and the shields which [had belonged] to the king David which [were] in [the] house of Yahweh.

Ɔmaa wɔn mpeaw ne nkatabo a na bere bi ɛyɛ ɔhene Dawid de a na wɔakora wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu hɔ no.

11 And they stood the runners everyone - and weapons his 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.

Awɛmfo no gyinagyinaa ɔhene no ho hyiae a wokurakura wɔn akode. Wɔsaa so tee fii asɔredan no anafo fam, de kɔfaa atifi fam, ne afɔremuka no ho nyinaa.

12 And he brought out [the] son of the king and he put on him the crown and the testimony and they made king him and they anointed him and they struck a palm and they said may he live the king.

Na Yehoiada de ɔhene babarima Yoas no pue hyɛɛ no ahenkyɛw. Ɔmaa Yoas Onyankopɔn apam no nhwɛso no bi, sii no ɔhene. Wɔsraa no, na nnipa no nyinaa bɔɔ wɔn nsam, teɛteɛɛ mu se, “Ɔhene nkwa so!”

13 And she heard Athaliah [the] sound of the runners the people and she went to the people [the] house of Yahweh.

Atalia tee gyegyeegye no a awɛmfo no ne nnipa no reyɛ no, ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ Awurade asɔredan mu hɔ, kɔhwɛɛ nea ɛrekɔ so.

14 And she saw and there! the king [was] standing at the pillar according to the custom and the commanders and the trumpets [were] with the king and all [the] people of the land [was] joyful and [was] giving a blast on trumpets and she tore Athaliah clothes her and she called out treason treason.

Ohuu sɛ ɔhene foforo no gyina beae bi a ɛkyerɛ ne tumi wɔ afadum no ho, sɛnea amanne kyerɛ wɔ ahensi mu no. Na mpanyimfo ne torobɛntohyɛnfo atwa ne ho ahyia. Na nnipa a wofi asase no so mmaa nyinaa redi ahurusi rehyɛn torobɛnto. Bere a Atalia huu eyinom nyinaa no, ɔde ahometew sunsuan ne ntade mu teɛteɛɛ mu sɛ, “Amammɔsɛm! Amammɔsɛm!”

15 And he commanded Jehoiada the priest [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) [the] officers of the army and he said to them bring out her to from between to the ranks and the [one who] comes behind her put to death with the sword for he had said the priest may not she be put to death [the] house of Yahweh.

Na ɔsɔfo Yehoiada hyɛɛ asafohene a wɔhwɛ asraafo no so no sɛ, “Momfa no mfi asɔredan mu ha, na munkum obiara a ɔpɛ sɛ ogye no. Munnkum no wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu ha.”

16 And they put to her hands and she went [the] way of [the] entrance of the horses [the] house of the king and she was put to death there.

Enti wɔtwee no de no kɔɔ ɔkwan a apɔnkɔ fa so ba ahemfi hɔ no so, kum no wɔ hɔ.

17 And he made Jehoiada the covenant between Yahweh and between the king and between the people to become a people of Yahweh and between the king and between the people.

Na Yehoiada ne ɔhene no ne ɔmanfo no yɛɛ apam sɛ, wɔbɛyɛ Awurade nkurɔfo. Ɔsan yɛɛ apam too ɔhene no ne nnipa no ntam.

18 And they went all [the] people of the land [the] house of Baal and they pulled down it (altars its *Q(K)*) and images its they broke thoroughly and Mattan [the] priest of Baal they killed before the altars and he appointed the priest overseers over [the] house of Yahweh.

Na nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa kɔɔ Baal abosonnan mu, kobubu guu fam. Wobubuu afɔremuka ne ahoni ahorow no nyinaa asinasin, kum Baal kɔmfo Matan nso wɔ afɔremuka no anim. Ɔsɔfo Yehoiada maa awɛmfo wɛn Awurade asɔredan no.

19 And he took [the] commanders of the hundreds and the Carian[s] and the runners and - all [the] people of the land and they took down the king from [the] house of Yahweh and they came [the] way of [the] gate of the runners [the] house of the king and he sat on [the] throne of the kings.

Na asahene, Karifo asraafo apaafo, awɛmfo no ne nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa dii ɔhene no akyi, de no pue fii Awurade asɔredan no mu. Wɔfaa awɛmfo no pon no ano, kɔɔ ahemfi hɔ, na ɔhene no kɔtenaa ahengua no so.

20 And it rejoiced all [the] people of the land and the city it was at peace and Athaliah they had put to death with the sword [the] house of (the king. *Q(K)*)

Enti nnipa a wɔwɔ asase no so nyinaa dii ahurusi, na asomdwoe baa kuropɔn no mu, efisɛ wɔakum Atalia wɔ ahemfi.
