2 Kings 11
1 Now when Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she arose and killed all the royal children.
亚哈谢的母亲亚她利雅见她儿子死了，就起来剿灭王室。
2 But Jehosheba, a daughter of King Jehoram and sister of Ahaziah, took Joash son of Ahaziah, and hid him away from among the king's sons who were killed, along with his nurse; she put them into a bedroom. They hid him from Athaliah so that he was not killed.
但约兰王的女儿，亚哈谢的妹子约示巴，将亚哈谢的儿子约阿施从那被杀的王子中偷出来，把他和他的乳母都藏在卧房里，躲避亚她利雅，免得被杀。
3 He remained with her six years, hidden in the house of Yahweh, while Athaliah reigned over the land.
约阿施和他的乳母藏在耶和华的殿里六年；亚她利雅篡了国位。
4 In the seventh year, Jehoiada sent messages and brought the commanders of hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to himself, into the temple of Yahweh. He made a covenant with them, and he made them swear an oath in the house of Yahweh. Then he showed them the king's son.
第七年，耶何耶大打发人叫迦利人和护卫兵的众百夫长来，领他们进了耶和华的殿，与他们立约，使他们在耶和华殿里起誓，又将王的儿子指给他们看，
5 He commanded them, saying, “This is what you must do. A third of you who come on the Sabbath will keep watch over the king's house,
吩咐他们说：“你们当这样行：凡安息日进班的三分之一要看守王宫，
6 and a third will be at the Sur Gate, and a third at the gate behind the guardhouse.”
三分之一要在苏珥门，三分之一要在护卫兵院的后门。这样把守王宫，拦阻闲人。
7 The two other groups who are not serving on the Sabbath, you must keep the watch over the house of Yahweh for the king.
你们安息日所有出班的三分之二要在耶和华的殿里护卫王；
8 You must surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand. Whoever enters within your ranks, let him be killed. You must stay with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in.
各人手拿兵器，四围护卫王。凡擅入你们班次的必当治死，王出入的时候，你们当跟随他。”
9 So the commanders of hundreds obeyed everything Jehoiada the priest commanded. Each one took his men, those who were to come in to serve on the Sabbath, and those who were to stop serving on that Sabbath; and they came to Jehoiada the priest.
众百夫长就照着祭司耶何耶大一切所吩咐的去行，各带所管安息日进班出班的人来见祭司耶何耶大。
10 Then Jehoiada the priest gave the commanders of hundreds the spears and shields that belonged to King David and that were in the house of Yahweh.
祭司便将耶和华殿里所藏大卫王的枪和盾牌交给百夫长。
11 So the guards stood, each man with his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side, near the altar and the temple, surrounding the king.
护卫兵手中各拿兵器，在坛和殿那里，从殿右直到殿左，站在王子的四围。
12 Then Jehoiada brought out the king's son Joash, put the crown on him, and gave him the covenant decrees. Then they made him king and anointed him. They clapped their hands and said, “Long live the king!”
祭司领王子出来，给他戴上冠冕，将律法书交给他，膏他作王；众人就拍掌说：“愿王万岁！”
13 When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people in the house of Yahweh.
亚她利雅听见护卫兵和民的声音，就到民那里，进耶和华的殿，
14 She looked, and, behold, the king was standing by the pillar, as the custom was, and the captains and the trumpeters were by the king. All the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and shouted, “Treason! Treason!”
看见王照例站在柱旁，百夫长和吹号的人侍立在王左右，国中的众民欢乐吹号；亚她利雅就撕裂衣服，喊叫说：“反了！反了！”
15 Then Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of hundreds who were over the army, saying, “Bring her out between the ranks. Anyone who follows her, kill him with the sword.” For the priest had said, “Do not let her be killed in the house of Yahweh.”
祭司耶何耶大吩咐管辖军兵的百夫长说：“将她赶出班外，凡跟随她的必用刀杀死！”因为祭司说“不可在耶和华殿里杀她”，
16 So they seized her as she reached the place where the horses enter the palace grounds, and there she was killed.
众兵就闪开让她去；她从马路上王宫去，便在那里被杀。
17 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between Yahweh and the king and people, that they should be Yahweh's people, and also between the king and the people.
耶何耶大使王和民与耶和华立约，作耶和华的民；又使王与民立约。
18 So all the people of the land went to the house of Baal and tore it down. They smashed Baal's altars and his idol figures to pieces, and they killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of those altars. Then Jehoida the priest appointed guards over the temple of Yahweh.
于是国民都到巴力庙，拆毁了庙，打碎坛和像，又在坛前将巴力的祭司玛坦杀了。祭司耶何耶大派官看守耶和华的殿，
19 Jehoida took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites, the guard, and all the people of the land, and together they brought down the king from the house of Yahweh and they went into the king's house, entering by way of the gate of the guards. Joash took his place on the royal throne.
又率领百夫长和迦利人与护卫兵，以及国中的众民，请王从耶和华殿下来，由护卫兵的门进入王宫，他就坐了王位。
20 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been killed with the sword at the king's house.
国民都欢乐，合城都安静。众人已将亚她利雅在王宫那里用刀杀了。
21 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign.
约阿施登基的时候年方七岁。
