2 Kings 11
1 When King Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
Nígbà tí Ataliah ìyá Ahasiah rí i wí pé ọmọ rẹ̀ ti kú, ó tẹ̀síwájú láti pa gbogbo ìdílé ọba náà run.
2 So Ahaziah’s sons were all about to be murdered. But Jehosheba, who was King Jehoram’s daughter and Ahaziah’s half-sister, took Ahaziah’s [very young] son Joash and hid him and (his nursemaid/the woman who took care of him) in a bedroom [in the temple]. So he was not killed.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoṣeba ọmọbìnrin ọba Jehoramu àti arábìnrin Ahasiah, mú Joaṣi ọmọ Ahasiah, ó sì jí i lọ kúrò láàrín àwọn ọmọ-aládébìnrin ti ọba náà, tí ó kù díẹ̀ kí a pa. Ó gbé òhun àti olùtọ́jú rẹ̀ sínú ìyẹ̀wù láti fi pamọ́ kúrò fún Ataliah; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a kò pa á.
3 He stayed with Jehosheba for six years. All during that time, he remained hidden in the temple, while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
Ó wà ní ìpamọ́ pẹ̀lú olùtọ́jú ní ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa fún ọdún mẹ́fà nígbà tí Ataliah fi jẹ ọba lórí ilẹ̀ náà.
4 But during the next year, Jehoiada the Supreme Priest summoned the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards and the palace guards. He told them to come to the temple. There he required them to solemnly promise that they would do what he told them to do. And he showed King Ahaziah’s son Joash to them.
Ní ọdún keje, Jehoiada ránṣẹ́ ó sí mú àwọn olórí lórí ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún, pẹ̀lú àwọn balógun àti àwọn olùṣọ́, ó sì mú wọn wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa. Ó ṣe májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú wọn, ó sì fi wọ́n sí abẹ́ ìbúra nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa. Níbẹ̀ ni ó fi ọmọkùnrin ọba hàn wọ́n.
5 He gave them these instructions: “There are three groups of you guards. When one group finishes their work on the Sabbath day, [divide yourselves into] three smaller groups. One group must guard the palace.
Ó pàṣẹ fún wọn, wí pé, “Ìwọ tí ó wà nínú àwọn ẹgbẹ́ mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta tí ó ń lọ fún iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi—ìdámẹ́ta yín fún ṣíṣọ́ ààfin ọba.
6 Another group must guard at the Sur Gate. The other group must guard at the gate behind the other groups.
Ìdámẹ́ta ní ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn huri, àti ìdámẹ́ta ní ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn ní ẹ̀yìn olùṣọ́, tí ó yípadà ní ṣíṣọ́ ilé tí a kọ́,
7 The two groups that are not working on the Sabbath day must guard the temple [to protect little King Joash].
àti ẹ̀yin tí ó wà ní ẹgbẹ́ kejì yòókù tí kì í lọ ibi iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi gbogbo ni kí ó ṣọ́ ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa fún ọba.
8 You must stand around the king wherever he goes, with your weapons in your hands. You must kill anyone who comes near you.”
Ẹ mú ibùjókòó yín yí ọba ká, olúkúlùkù ọkùnrin pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá súnmọ́ ọgbà yìí gbọdọ̀ kú. Ẹ dúró súnmọ́ ọba ní ibikíbi tí ó bá lọ.”
9 The officers [who supervised the guards] did what Jehoiada told them to do. Each one brought to Jehoiada the guards that he supervised—the guards who were just finishing their work and those who were about to start their work on the Sabbath day.
Olórí àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jehoiada àlùfáà ti pa á láṣẹ. Olúkúlùkù mú àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ̀ àwọn tí ó ń lọ sí iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi àti àwọn tí wọ́n wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ Jehoiada àlùfáà.
10 The priest distributed to the commanders of the guards the spears and shields that had belonged to King David, that were kept/stored in the temple.
Nígbà náà, ó fún àwọn olórí ní àwọn ọ̀kọ̀ àti àwọn àpáta tí ó ti jẹ́ ti ọba Dafidi tí ó sì wà nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa.
11 Then he commanded all the guards to stand in their positions, each one with his sword in his hand, all around the young king.
Àwọn olùṣọ́, olúkúlùkù pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì dúró ṣinṣin yìí ọba ká—lẹ́bàá pẹpẹ àti ilé ìhà gúúsù sí ìhà àríwá ilé tí a kọ́ fun Olúwa náà.
12 Then he brought Joash out. He put the crown on his head and gave him a scroll on which were written the rules [that the kings needed to obey]. Then he poured some olive oil on Joash’s head and proclaimed that he was now the king. The people all clapped their hands and shouted, “We desire/hope that the king will live for many years!”
Jehoiada mú ọmọkùnrin ọba jáde, ó sì gbé adé náà lé e: ó fún un ní ẹ̀dà májẹ̀mú, wọ́n sì kéde ọba rẹ̀. Wọ́n fi àmì òróró yàn án, àwọn ènìyàn pa àtẹ́wọ́, wọ́n sì kígbe, “Kí ẹ̀mí ọba kí ó gùn.”
13 When Athaliah heard the noise that was being made by the guards and the other people, she ran to the temple, where the people were gathered.
Nígbà tí Ataliah gbọ́ ariwo tí àwọn olùṣọ́ àti àwọn ènìyàn ń pa, ó lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa.
14 She saw the new king standing there alongside one of the big pillars, which was the place at the temple where the kings usually stood. She saw that he was surrounded by the temple officers and men blowing trumpets, and that the people were shouting joyfully, and [some of] them were also blowing trumpets. She tore her clothes [to show her distress] and shouted, “You are traitors! You have tricked/deceived me!”
Ó wò ó, níbẹ̀ ni ọba, tí ó dúró lẹ́bàá òpó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣà ti rí. Àwọn balógun àti àwọn afùnpè wà ní ẹ̀bá ọba, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilé náà sì ń yọ̀, wọ́n sì ń fun ìpè pẹ̀lú. Nígbà náà Ataliah fa aṣọ ìgúnwà rẹ̀ ya. Ó sì kégbe pé, “Ọ̀tẹ̀! Ọ̀tẹ̀!”
15 Jehoiada [immediately] said, “Kill her, but do not kill her here at the temple of Yahweh! Take her away between two rows of guards. And kill anyone who tries to rescue her!”
Jehoiada àlùfáà pàṣẹ fún olórí ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún, ta ni ó wà ní ìkáwọ́ ọ̀wọ́ ogun: “Mú u jáde láàrín àwọn ẹgbẹ́ ogun yìí kí o sì fi sí ipa idà ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá tẹ̀lé.” Nítorí àlùfáà ti sọ, “A kò gbọdọ̀ pa á nínú ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa.”
16 [She tried to flee, but] the guards seized her and took her to the palace, to the place where horses enter the courtyard. They killed her there.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n fi agbára mú un bí ó ti dé ibi tí àwọn ẹṣin tí ń wọ ilẹ̀ ààfin ọba àti níbẹ̀ ni a ti pa á.
17 Then Jehoiada made a solemn agreement between the king and the people, that they would always (obey/be faithful to) Yahweh. He also made an agreement requiring the people to be loyal to Joash their king.
Nígbà náà ni Jehoiada dá májẹ̀mú láàrín Olúwa àti ọba àti àwọn ènìyàn tí yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn Olúwa. Ó dá májẹ̀mú láàrín ọba àti àwọn ènìyàn pẹ̀lú.
18 Then all the people of Israel who were there went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and the statues of Baal. They also killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars. Jehoiada stationed/put guards at the temple of Yahweh.
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà lọ sí ilé tí a kọ́ fún òrìṣà Baali wọ́n sì ya á bolẹ̀. Wọ́n fọ́ àwọn pẹpẹ àti òrìṣà sí wẹ́wẹ́. Wọ́n sì pa Mattani àlùfáà Baali níwájú àwọn pẹpẹ. Nígbà náà, Jehoiada àlùfáà náà sì yan àwọn olùṣọ́ sí ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa.
19 Then he and the officers of the temple, the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards, and the king’s bodyguards brought the king from the temple to the palace. All the people [followed them]. Joash entered the palace at the Guard Gate and sat down on the throne, [which showed that he was the new king].
Ó mú pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀ àwọn olórí ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún àti gbogbo balógun àti àwọn olùṣọ́ àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà àti lápapọ̀, wọ́n mú ọba sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láti ilé tí a kọ́ fún Olúwa. Wọ́n sì wọ inú ààfin lọ, wọ́n sì wọlé nípa ìlẹ̀kùn ti àwọn olùṣọ́. Ọba sì mú ààyè rẹ̀ ní orí ìtẹ́ ọba.
20 All the people of Judah rejoiced. And because Athaliah had been killed, the city was quiet/calm.
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà sì yọ̀, ìlú náà sì dákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́. Nítorí a pa Ataliah pẹ̀lú idà náà ní ààfin ọba.
21 Joash was seven years old when he became the king [of Judah].
Joaṣi jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún méje nígbà tí ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìjọba rẹ̀.
