< 2 Chronicles 24 >
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
Joaṣi jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún méje nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ogójì ọdún. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ ni Sibia ti Beerṣeba.
2 Joash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Joaṣi ṣe ohun tí ó dára ní ojú Olúwa ní gbogbo àkókò Jehoiada àlùfáà.
3 Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
Jehoiada yan ìyàwó méjì fún un, ó sì ní àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin.
4 After this, Joash intended to restore the LORD’s house.
Ní àkókò kan, Joaṣi pinnu láti tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
5 He gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter.” However the Levites didn’t do it right away.
Ó pe àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi jọ, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ sí àwọn ìlú Juda, kí ẹ sì gba owó ìtọ́sí láti ọwọ́ gbogbo Israẹli láti fi tún ilé Ọlọ́run yín ṣe.” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Lefi kò ṣe é lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà.
6 The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why haven’t you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Nítorí náà ọba pa á láṣẹ fún Jehoiada olórí àlùfáà ó sì wí fún un pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí o kò béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Lefi láti mú wá láti Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, owó orí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti fi lélẹ̀ àti nípasẹ̀ àpéjọ gbogbo Israẹli fún àgọ́ ẹ̀rí?”
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the LORD’s house to the Baals.
Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ọmọkùnrin obìnrin búburú ni Ataliah ti fọ́ ilé Ọlọ́run, ó sì ti lo àwọn nǹkan ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún àwọn Baali.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the LORD’s house.
Nípasẹ̀ ọba, wọn ṣe àpótí wọ́n sì gbé e sí ìta, ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé Olúwa.
9 They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
A ṣe ìkéde ní Juda àti Jerusalẹmu wí pé wọ́n gbọdọ̀ mú wá fún Olúwa, owó orí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti béèrè lọ́wọ́ Israẹli ní aginjù.
10 All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
Gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì yọ̀, wọ́n sì mú un wá, wọ́n ń jù ú sínú àpótí títí tí ó fi kún.
11 Whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
Nígbàkígbà tí a bá gbé àpótí wọlé láti ọwọ́ àwọn ará Lefi sí ọwọ́ àwọn ìjòyè ọba, tí wọ́n bá sì rí wí pe owó ńlá wà níbẹ̀ àwọn akọ̀wé ọba àti ìjòyè olórí àlùfáà yóò wá láti kó owó rẹ̀ kúrò, wọn yóò sì dá a padà sí ààyè rẹ̀. Wọ́n ṣe èyí déédé, wọ́n sì kó iye owó ńlá.
12 The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
Ọba àti Jehoiada fi fún àwọn ọkùnrin náà tí ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́ nínú ilé Olúwa. Wọ́n fi owó gba ẹni tí ń fi òkúta mọ ilé àti àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà láti kọ́ ilé Olúwa padà, àti àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ pẹ̀lú irin àti idẹ láti tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
13 So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn tí ó ń ṣiṣẹ́ náà, sì lọ síwájú àti síwájú ní ọwọ́ wọn, wọ́n sì tún mú ilé Ọlọ́run dúró sí ipò rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un le.
14 When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì parí rẹ̀ tán, wọ́n mú owó ìyókù wá sí iwájú ọba àti Jehoiada, a sì fi ohun èlò fún ilé Olúwa, àní ohun èlò fún ìsìn àti fún ẹbọ pẹ̀lú ọpọ́n, àní ohun èlò wúrà àti fàdákà. Wọ́n sì ń rú ẹbọ sísun ní ilé Olúwa nígbà gbogbo ní gbogbo ọjọ́ Jehoiada.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred and thirty years old when he died.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoiada di arúgbó, ó sì kún fún ọjọ́, ó sì kú, ẹni àádóje ọdún ni nígbà tí ó kú.
16 They buried him in David’s city amongst the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and towards God and his house.
Wọ́n sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi pẹ̀lú àwọn ọba, nítorí tí ó ṣe rere ní Israẹli, àti sí Ọlọ́run àti sí ilé rẹ̀.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
Lẹ́yìn ikú Jehoiada, àwọn oníṣẹ́ Juda wá láti fi ìforíbalẹ̀ wọn hàn sí ọba. Ó sì fèsì sí wọn.
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
Wọ́n pa ilé Olúwa tì, Ọlọ́run baba a wọn. Wọ́n sì ń sin àwọn ère Aṣerah àti àwọn òrìṣà. Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn yìí, ìbínú Ọlọ́run dé sórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again to the LORD, and they testified against them; but they would not listen.
Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, Olúwa rán àwọn wòlíì sí àwọn ènìyàn láti mú wọn padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé, wọ́n jẹ́rìí nípa wọn, wọn kì yóò gbọ́.
20 The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “God says, ‘Why do you disobey the LORD’s commandments, so that you can’t prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.’”
Nígbà náà, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run wá sórí Sekariah ọmọ Jehoiada wòlíì, ó dúró níwájú àwọn ènìyàn ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: ‘Kí ni ó dé tí ẹ̀yin kò fi tẹ̀lé àṣẹ Olúwa? Ìwọ kì yóò ṣe rere. Nítorí tí ìwọ ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀, òun pẹ̀lú ti kọ̀ yín sílẹ̀.’”
21 They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the LORD’s house.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n dìtẹ̀ sí i, àti nípa àṣẹ ọba, wọ́n sọ ọ́ lókùúta pa nínú àgbàlá ààfin ilé Olúwa.
22 Thus Joash the king didn’t remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May the LORD look at it, and repay it.”
Ọba Joaṣi kò rántí inú rere tí Jehoiada baba Sakariah ti fihàn án ṣùgbọ́n, ó pa ọmọ rẹ̀, tí ó wí bí ó ti ń kú lọ pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó rí èyí kí ó sì pè ọ́ sí ìṣirò.”
23 At the end of the year, the army of the Syrians came up against him. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from amongst the people, and sent all their plunder to the king of Damascus.
Ní òpin ọdún, àwọn ọmọ-ogun Aramu yàn láti dojúkọ Joaṣi; wọ́n gbógun ti Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n sì pa gbogbo àwọn aṣáájú àwọn ènìyàn. Wọ́n rán gbogbo àwọn ìkógun sí ọba wọn ní Damasku.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgement on Joash.
Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, àwọn ọmọ-ogun Aramu ti wá pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin díẹ̀ Olúwa sì fi ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ọmọ-ogun lé wọn lọ́wọ́, nítorí tí Juda ti kọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn sílẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì ṣe ìdájọ́ Joaṣi.
25 When they had departed from him (for they left him seriously wounded), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died. They buried him in David’s city, but they didn’t bury him in the tombs of the kings.
Nígbà tí àwọn ará Aramu kúrò, wọ́n fi Joaṣi sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀ ọgbẹ́. Àwọn oníṣẹ́ rẹ̀ dìtẹ̀ si fún pípa ọmọ Jehoiada àlùfáà, wọ́n sì pa á ní orí ibùsùn rẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ó sì kú, a sì sin ín sínú ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe nínú àwọn ibojì àwọn ọba.
26 These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Àwọn tí ó dìtẹ̀ sì jẹ́ Sabadi, ọmọ Ṣimeati arábìnrin Ammoni àti Jehosabadi ọmọ Ṣimiriti arábìnrin Moabu.
27 Now concerning his sons, the greatness of the burdens laid on him, and the rebuilding of God’s house, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
Àkọsílẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa rẹ̀, àti àkọsílẹ̀ ti ìmúpadà sípò ilé Ọlọ́run ní a kọ sínú ìwé ìtumọ̀ ti àwọn ọba. Amasiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
