< 2 Chronicles 24 >

1 A son of seven years [is] Joash in his reigning, and forty years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Zibiah of Beer-Sheba.
Fito taona no niainan’ i Joasy, fony izy vao nanjaka, efa efa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Zibia, avy any Beri-sheba.
2 And Joash doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Ary Joasy nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Joiada mpisorona.
3 And Jehoiada taketh for him two wives, and he begetteth sons and daughters.
Ary nangalan’ i Joiada vady roa Joasy, dia niteraka zazalahy sy zazavavy izy.
4 And it cometh to pass after this, it hath been with the heart of Joash to renew the house of Jehovah,
Ary nony afaka izany, dia mby ao am-pon i Joasy ny hanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
5 and he gathereth the priests and the Levites, and saith to them, 'Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to strengthen the house of your God sufficiently year by year, and ye, ye do haste to the matter;' and the Levites have not hasted.
Dia namory ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mandehana ho any amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda, ka mamoria vola isan-taona amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hanamboarana ny tranon’ Andriamanitrareo; ary hafainganonareo ny raharaha. Nefa ny Levita tsy nanafaingana izany.
6 And the king calleth for Jehoiada the head, and saith to him, 'Wherefore hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tribute of Moses, servant of Jehovah, and of the assembly of Israel, for the tent of the testimony?
Ary ny mpanjaka dia nampaka an’ i Joiada, lohany tamin’ ireo, ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana no tsy nasainao nitondra ny hetra avy tany Joda sy Jerosalema ny Levita, araka ny didin’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah sy ny fiangonan’ ny Isiraely ho ao amin’ ny tabernakelin’ ny vavolombelona?
7 for sons of Athaliah, the wicked one, have broken up the house of God, and also, all the holy things of the house of Jehovah they have prepared for Baalim.'
Fa ny zanak’ i Atalia, ilay vehivavy ratsy fanahy, efa nandrava ny tranon’ Andriamanitra; ary ny zavatra masìna rehetra tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah koa dia efa nateriny ho an’ ireo Bala.
8 And the king speaketh, and they make one chest, and put it at the gate of the house of Jehovah without,
Ary nasain’ ny mpanjaka nanao vata anankiray izy, dia napetrany teo ivelan’ ny vavahadin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah izany.
9 and give an intimation in Judah and in Jerusalem to bring in to Jehovah the tribute of Moses, servant of God, [laid] on Israel in the wilderness.
Ary nandefa teny eran’ i Joda sy Jerosalema izy mba haterina ho an’ i Jehovah ny hetra izay nasain’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ Andriamanitra, haloan’ ny Isiraely, fony izy tany an-efitra.
10 And all the heads, and all the people rejoice, and they bring in, and cast into the chest, unto completion.
Dia faly ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny vahoaka rehetra, ka dia nitondra izany ary nandatsaka azy tao amin’ ny vata ambara-pahatapiny.
11 And it cometh to pass, at the time one bringeth in the chest for the inspection of the king by the hand of the Levites, and at their seeing that the money [is] abundant, that a scribe of the king hath come in, and an officer of the head-priest, and they empty the chest, and take it up and turn it back unto its place; thus they have done day by day, and gather money in abundance.
Ary tamin’ izay andro nitondran’ ny Levita ny vata ho any amin’ ny toniany voatendrin’ ny mpanjaka, raha hitany fa be ny vola, dia avy ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka sy ny toniany voatendrin’ ny mpisoronabe ka nanaisotra izay rehetra tao amin’ ny vata, dia nitondra ny vata niverina ho eo amin’ ny fitoerany indray. Toy izany no nataony mandrakariva, ka nahavory vola betsaka izy.
12 And the king and Jehoiada give it unto the doers of the work of the service of the house of Jehovah, and they are hiring hewers and artificers to renew the house of Jehovah, and also — to artificers in iron and brass to strengthen the house of Jehovah.
Ary nomen’ ny mpanjaka sy Joiada ho an’ izay nanao ny raharahan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ny vola, ka nanakaraman’ ireo mpipai-bato sy mpandrafitra ary mpanefy vy sy varahina mba hanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
13 And those doing the business work, and there goeth up lengthening to the work by their hand, and they establish the house of God, by its proper measure, and strengthen it.
Dia nanao ny mpiasa, ka vita tsara ny asa; ary namboariny ho toy ny teo aloha ny tranon’ Andriamanitra ka nataony mafy.
14 And at their completing [it], they have brought in before the king and Jehoiada the rest of the money, and they make it vessels for the house of Jehovah, vessels of serving, and of offering up, and spoons, even vessels of gold and silver; and they are causing burnt-offerings to ascend in the house of Jehovah continually, all the days of Jehoiada.
Ary nony vitany izany, dia nentiny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka sy Joiada ny vola sisa ka nanaovany fanaka ho an’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia fanaka ho enti-manao fanompoam-pivavahana sy manatitra fanatitra ary lovia kely sy fanaka volamena sy volafotsy. Ary nanatitra fanatitra dorana tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah mandrakariva izy tamin’ ny andron’ i Joiada rehetra.
15 And Jehoiada is aged and satisfied with days, and dieth — a son of a hundred and thirty years in his death,
Fa tratrantitra sy ela niainana Joiada vao maty: telo-polo amby zato taona izy vao maty.
16 and they bury him in the city of David, with the kings, for he hath done good in Israel, and with God, and his house.
Ary nalevina tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida tao amin’ ny mpanjaka izy, satria nanao soa teo amin’ ny Isiraely ary tamin’ Andriamanitra sy ny tranony koa.
17 And after the death of Jehoiada come in have heads of Judah, and bow themselves to the king; then hath the king hearkened unto them,
Ary rehefa maty Joiada, dia avy Ireo mpanapaka ny Joda ka niankohoka teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka. Dia nihaino azy ny mpanjaka.
18 and they forsake the house of Jehovah, God of their fathers, and serve the shrines and the idols, and there is wrath upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guilt.
Ary nandao ny tranon’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, ireo ka nanompo ny Aseraha sy ny sampy dia nisy fahatezerana nihatra tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema noho ny fahadisoany.
19 And He sendeth among them prophets, to bring them back unto Jehovah, and they testify against them, and they have not given ear;
Ary naniraka mpaminany tany aminy Izy hampiverina azy amin’ i Jehovah; dia nananatra azy mafy ireo, nefa tsy nety nihaino izy.
20 and the Spirit of God hath clothed Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest, and he standeth over-against the people, and saith to them, 'Thus said God, Why are ye transgressing the commands of Jehovah, and prosper not? because ye have forsaken Jehovah — He doth forsake you.'
Ary Zakaria, zanak’ i Joiada mpisorona, notsindrian’ ny Fanahin’ Andriamanitra, dia nitsangana teo amin’ ny avoavo teo anatrehan’ ny vahoaka izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ Andriamanitra: Nahoana ianareo no mandika ny didin’ i Jehovah ka tsy mahita fanambinana? Satria efa nahafoy an’ i Jehovah ianareo, dia nahafoy anareo kosa Izy.
21 And they conspire against him, and stone him with stones by the command of the king, in the court of the house of Jehovah,
Dia nanao teti-dratsy ireo ka nitora-bato azy teo amin’ ny kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah araka ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka.
22 and Joash the king hath not remembered the kindness that Jehoiada his father did with him, and slayeth his son, and in his death he said, 'Jehovah doth see, and require.'
Toy izany no tsy nahatsiarovan’ i Joasy mpanjaka ny soa nataon’ i Joiada rainy taminy, fa namono ny zanany izy. Ary nony efa ho faty Zakaria, dia niteny hoe: Jehovah anie hijery sy hamaly izao.
23 And it cometh to pass, at the turn of the year, come up hath the force of Aram against him, and they come in unto Judah and Jerusalem, and destroy all the heads of the people from the people, and all their spoil they have sent to the king of Damascus,
Ary nony efa niherina ny taona, dia avy ny miaramilan’ i Syria hiady taminy; ary tonga tany Joda sy Jerosalema izy, ka matiny avokoa ny mpanapaka rehetra tao amin’ ny olona, ary nampitondrainy ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Damaskosy ny babo rehetra.
24 for with few men have the force of Aram come in, and Jehovah hath given into their hand a mighty force for multitude, because they have forsaken Jehovah, God of their fathers; and with Joash they have executed judgments.
Fa vitsy ny miaramilan’ ny Syriana izay tonga teo, nefa Jehovah nanolotra miaramila maro ho eo an-tànany noho ny nahafoizany an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany. Toy izany no nahatanterahan’ ireo ny famaliana an’ i Joasy.
25 And in their going from him — for they left him with many diseases — his servants themselves have conspired against him, for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slay him on his bed, and he dieth; and they bury him in the city of David, and have not buried him in the graves of the kings.
Ary nony nilaozany tamin’ ny faharariany mafy izy, ny mpanompony dia niodina taminy noho ny ran’ ny zanak’ i Joiada mpisorona, ka namono azy teo am-pandriany, dia maty izy; ary naleviny tany an-Tanànan’ i Davida ihany izy, nefa tsy tao amin’ ny fasan’ ny mpanjaka.
26 And these [are] those conspiring against him, Zabad son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
Ary izao no niodina taminy: Zabada, zanak’ i Simata Amonita, sy Jozabada, zanak’ i Simrita Moabita.
27 As to his sons, and the greatness of the burden upon him, and the foundation of the house of God, lo, they are written on the 'Inquiry' of the book of the Kings; and reign doth Amaziah his son in his stead.
Ary ny amin’ ny zanany sy ny hamafin’ ny faminaniana nilaza ny loza hanjo azy ary ny nanamboarany ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjaka izany. Ary Amazia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
