2 Chronicles 24
1 Joas was of seuene yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde fourti yeer in Jerusalem; the name of his modir was Sebia of Bersabee.
UJowashi wayeleminyaka eyisikhombisa esiba yinkosi, wabusa iminyaka engamatshumi amane eJerusalema. Lebizo likanina lalinguZibiya weBherishebha.
2 And he dide that, that was good bifor the Lord, in alle the daies of Joiada, the preest.
UJowashi wasesenza okuqondileyo emehlweni eNkosi insuku zonke zikaJehoyada umpristi.
3 Sotheli and Joas took twei wyues, of whyche he gendride sones and douytris.
UJehoyada wasemthathela abafazi ababili; wasezala amadodana lamadodakazi.
4 After whiche thingis it pleside Joas to reparele the hows of the Lord.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho kwaba senhliziyweni kaJowashi ukuvuselela indlu yeNkosi.
5 And he gaderide togidere preestis and dekenes, and seide to hem, Go ye out to the citees of Juda, and gadere ye of al Israel money, to the reparelyng of the temple of `youre Lord God, bi ech yeer; and do ye this hiyyngli.
Wasebuthanisa abapristi lamaLevi, wathi kibo: Phumani liye emizini yakoJuda, liqoqe kuIsrayeli wonke imali yokulungisa indlu kaNkulunkulu wenu umnyaka ngomnyaka; lina-ke, luphangiseleni udaba. Kodwa amaLevi kawaphangisanga.
6 Certis the dekenes diden necgligentli. And the kyng clepide Joiada, the prince, and seide to hym, Whi was it not charge to thee, to constreyne the dekenes to brynge yn money of Juda and of Jerusalem, which money was ordeyned of Moises, the seruaunt of `the Lord, that al the multitude of Israel schulde brynge it in to the tabernacle of witnessyng?
Inkosi yasibiza uJehoyada inhloko, yathi kuye: Kungani ungabizanga kumaLevi ukuthi alethe esusa koJuda laseJerusalema umthelo kaMozisi inceku yeNkosi, lowebandla lakoIsrayeli okwethente lobufakazi?
7 For the worste Athalia, and hir sones, distrieden the hows of God; and of alle thingis, that weren halewid to the temple of the Lord, thei ourneden the temple of Baalym.
Ngoba amadodana kaAthaliya okhohlakeleyo afohlela endlini kaNkulunkulu, futhi-ke ayesebenzisele oBhali zonke izinto ezingcwele zendlu yeNkosi.
8 Therfor the kyng comaundide, and thei maden an arke, and settiden it bisidis the yate of the Lord with out forth.
Inkosi yasilaya, asesenza ibhokisi elilodwa, alibeka esangweni lendlu kaJehova phandle.
9 And it was prechid in Juda and Jerusalem, that ech man schulde brynge to the Lord the prijs, which Moyses, the seruaunt of God, ordeynede on al Israel, in deseert.
Asesenza isimemezelo koJuda laseJerusalema ukuthi balethe eNkosini umthelo kaMozisi inceku kaNkulunkulu owabekwa phezu kukaIsrayeli enkangala.
10 And alle the princes and al the puple weren glad, and thei entriden, and brouyten, and senten in to the arke of the Lord, so that it was fillid.
Zonke iziphathamandla labo bonke abantu basebethokoza, baletha baphosela ebhokisini baze baqeda.
11 And whanne it was tyme, that thei schulden bere the arke bifor the kyng bi the hondis of dekenes, for thei sien myche money, the clerk of the kyng entride, and he whom the firste preest hadde ordeynede, and thei schedden out the money, that was in the arke; sotheli thei baren ayen the arke to `his place. And so thei diden bi alle daies, and money with out noumbre was gaderid togidere;
Kwakusithi-ke ngesikhathi eletha ibhokisi kumhloli wenkosi ngesandla samaLevi, lalapho ebona ukuthi kulemali enengi, umabhalane wenkosi lenduna yompristi oyinhloko beze balithulule ibhokisi, balithathe balibuyisele endaweni yalo. Benza njalo-ke insuku ngensuku, baqoqa imali ngobunengi.
12 which the kyng and Joiada yauen to hem that weren souereyns of the werkis of the hows of the Lord. And thei hiriden therof kitteris of stonys, and crafti men of alle werkis, that thei schulden reparele the hows of the Lord; also thei hiriden smythis of yrun, and of bras, that that thing schulde be vndurset, that bigan to falle.
Inkosi loJehoyada basebeyinika abenzi bomsebenzi wenkonzo wendlu kaJehova, baqhatsha abakha ngamatshe lababazi ukuvuselela indlu kaJehova, njalo labakhandi bensimbi lethusi ukuqinisa indlu kaJehova.
13 Thei that wrouyten diden craftili, and the crasyng of the wallis was stoppid bi the hondis of hem; and thei reisiden the hows of the Lord in to the formere staat, and maden it to stonde stidfastli.
Ngakho abenzi bomsebenzi basebenza, kwaze kwathi ukuvuselelwa komsebenzi kwaqhubeka ngesandla sabo, bayimisa indlu kaNkulunkulu ngesilinganiso sayo, bayiqinisa.
14 And whanne thei hadden fillid alle werkis, thei brouyten bifor the kyng and Joiada the tother part of the money, of which money vessels weren maad in to the seruyce of the temple, and to brent sacrifices; also viols, and othere vessels of gold and of siluer `weren maad therof. And brent sacrifices weren offrid in the hows of the Lord contynueli, in alle the daies of Joiada.
Kwathi sebeqedile baletha imali eseleyo phambi kwenkosi loJehoyada, abenza ngayo izitsha zendlu kaJehova, izitsha zenkonzo lezokunikela, lezinkezo, lezitsha zegolide lezesiliva. Basebenikela njalonjalo iminikelo yokutshiswa endlini kaJehova zonke izinsuku zikaJehoyada.
15 Forsothe Joiada ful of daies wexide eld, and he was deed, whanne he was of an hundrid yeer and thritti;
UJehoyada waseguga wenela ngezinsuku, wafa; wayeleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amathathu ekufeni kwakhe.
16 and thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid with kyngis; for he hadde do good with Israel, and with his hows.
Basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida lamakhosi, ngoba wayenze okulungileyo koIsrayeli lakuNkulunkulu lendlu yakhe.
17 But aftir that Joiada diede, the princes of Juda entriden, and worschipiden the kyng, which was flaterid with her seruices, and assentide to hem.
Emva kokufa kukaJehoyada iziphathamandla zakoJuda zasezisiza zakhothama phambi kwenkosi; khona inkosi yazilalela.
18 And thei forsoken the temple of the Lord God of her fadris, and seruyden idols in wodis, and grauen ymagis; and the ire of the Lord was maad ayens Juda and Jerusalem for this synne.
Basebeyitshiya indlu yeNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise, bakhonza izixuku lezithombe. Kwasekusehlela ulaka phezu kukaJuda leJerusalema ngenxa yalelicala labo.
19 And he sente to hem profetis, that thei schulen turne ayen to the Lord; whiche profetis witnessynge thei nolden here.
Kodwa yathuma abaprofethi phakathi kwabo ukubabuyisela eNkosini; basebefakaza bemelene labo, kodwa kababekanga indlebe.
20 Therfor the Spirit of the Lord clothide Zacharie, the preest, the sone of Joiada; and he stood in the siyt of the puple, and seide to hem, The Lord seith these thingis, Whi breken ye the comaundement of the Lord, `which thing schal not profite to you, and ye han forsake the Lord, that he schulde forsake you?
UMoya kaNkulunkulu wasesembesa uZekhariya indodana kaJehoyada umpristi owema ngaphezu kwabantu, wathi kibo: Utsho njalo uNkulunkulu: Kungani liseqa imilayo yeNkosi ukuze lingaphumeleli? Ngoba liyitshiyile iNkosi, layo ilitshiyile.
21 Whiche weren gaderide togidere ayens hym, and senten stonys, bi comaundement `of the kyng, in the large place of the hows of the Lord.
Basebemenzela ugobe, bamkhanda ngamatshe ngomlayo wenkosi, egumeni lendlu kaJehova.
22 And kyng Joas hadde not mynde on the merci which Joiada, the fadir of Zacharie, hadde doon with hym; but he killide the sone of Joiada. And whanne Zacharie diede, he seide, The Lord se, and seke.
Ngokunjalo uJowashi inkosi kawukhumbulanga umusa uJehoyada uyise ayemenzele wona, kodwa wabulala indodana yakhe. Lalapho esifa wathi: INkosi kayibone ikufune.
23 And whanne a yeer was turned aboute, `ether endid, the oost of Sirie stiede ayens Joas, and it cam in to Juda and in to Jerusalem, and it killide alle the princes of the puple; and thei senten al the prey to the kyng, to Damask.
Kwasekusithi ekuthwaseni komnyaka ibutho leSiriya lenyuka lamelana laye; basebefika koJuda leJerusalema, babhubhisa zonke iziphathamandla zabantu ebantwini, bathumela yonke impango yazo enkosini yeDamaseko.
24 And certeyn, whanne a ful litle noumbre of men of Sirie was comun, the Lord bitook in her hondis a multitude with out noumbre, for thei hadden forsake the Lord God of her fadris. Also thei vsiden schameful domes in Joas;
Lanxa ibutho lamaSiriya leza lilamadoda amalutshwana, kanti iNkosi yanikela esandleni sawo ibutho elikhulu kakhulu, ngoba babeyitshiyile iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyise. Ngalokho benza izigwebo kuJowashi.
25 and thei yeden awei, and leften hym in grete sorewis. Sotheli hise seruauntis risiden ayens hym, in to veniaunce of the blood of the sone of Joiada, preest; and killiden hym in his bed, and he was deed. And thei birieden hym in the citee of Dauid, but not in the sepulcris of kyngis.
Kwathi sebesukile kuye, ngoba bemtshiye esemikhuhlaneni emikhulu, inceku zakhe zamenzela ugobe ngenxa yegazi lamadodana kaJehoyada umpristi, zambulalela embhedeni wakhe, wasesifa; basebemngcwabela emzini kaDavida, kodwa kabamngcwabanga emangcwabeni amakhosi.
26 Forsothe Sabath, the sone of Semath of Amon, and Josabeth, the sone of Semarith of Moab, settiden tresouns to hym.
Lalaba yibo ababemenzele ugobe: OZabadi indodana kaShimeyathi umAmonikazi, loJehozabadi indodana kaShimirithi umMowabikazi.
27 Sotheli hise sones, and the summe of money that was gaderid vndur hym, and the reparelyng of the hows of God, ben writun diligentli in the book of Kyngis.
Mayelana lamadodana akhe, lobukhulu bomthwalo phezu kwakhe, lokumiswa kwendlu kaNkulunkulu, khangela, kubhaliwe endabeni yogwalo lwamakhosi. UAmaziya indodana yakhe wasesiba yinkosi esikhundleni sakhe.
