2 Athamaki 11
1 Rĩrĩa Athalia nyina wa Ahazia onire atĩ mũriũ nĩakua-rĩ, agĩthiĩ na mbere kũũraga andũ othe a nyũmba yothe ya ũthamaki.
Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal family.
2 No rĩrĩ, Jehosheba, mwarĩ wa Mũthamaki Jehoramu na mwarĩ wa nyina na Ahazia, akĩoya Joashu mũrũ wa Ahazia akĩmweheria kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a mũthamaki arĩa maakirie kũũragwo. Akĩmũiga hamwe na mũreri wake kanyũmba ga gũkoma, akĩmũhitha kuuma kũrĩ Athalia; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joashu ndaigana kũũragwo.
But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and secretly took him away from among the king's sons who were to be executed, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bedroom. So he was hidden from Athaliah and was not put to death.
3 Aikarire ahithĩtwo hamwe na mũreri wake thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova mĩaka ĩtandatũ ĩrĩa Athalia aathamakire bũrũri ũcio.
He was with her hidden in the house of the LORD six years. Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 Mwaka-inĩ wa mũgwanja, Jehoiada agĩtũmanĩra anene a ikundi arĩa maathaga thigari igana rĩmwe, thĩinĩ wa andũ arĩa meetagwo Akari, na arangĩri nao magĩũka kũrĩ we kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova. Nake akĩgĩa kĩrĩkanĩro nao na akĩmehĩtithĩria kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova. Agĩcooka akĩmoonia mũriũ wa mũthamaki.
In the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains over hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and showed them the king's son.
5 Akĩmaatha akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũgwĩka ũũ: Inyuĩ arĩa othe mũgaakorwo mũrĩ wĩra mũthenya wa thabatũ-rĩ, gĩcunjĩ kĩmwe kĩanyu gĩa ithatũ gĩkaarangĩra nyũmba ya ũthamaki,
He commanded them, saying, "This is the thing that you shall do: a third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king's house.
6 nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩrangĩre Kĩhingo gĩa Suri, ningĩ gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩkorwo kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thuutha wa arangĩri arĩa mateithanagia kũrangĩra hekarũ,
A third part shall be at the Foundation Gate, and a third part at the gate behind the guard. So you shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7 na inyuĩ andũ arĩa makoragwo thĩinĩ wa ikundi icio ingĩ igĩrĩ, arĩa matakoragwo wĩra mũthenya wa thabatũ-rĩ, othe makaarangĩra hekarũ nĩ ũndũ wa mũthamaki.
The two companies of you, even all who go out on the Sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD around the king.
8 Mũikare mũthiũrũrũkĩirie mũthamaki, o mũndũ anyiitĩte indo ciake cia mbaara na guoko. Mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkaamũkuhĩrĩria no nginya ooragwo. Mũikare hakuhĩ na mũthamaki o harĩa hothe angĩthiĩ.”
You shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he who comes within the ranks, let him be slain. Be with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in."
9 Nao anene a ita arĩa maathaga ikundi cia andũ igana rĩmwe magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Jehoiada, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai aathanĩte. O mũnene akĩoya andũ ake, arĩa maathiiaga wĩra mũthenya ũcio wa thabatũ na arĩa moimagĩra wĩra hĩndĩ ĩyo, othe magĩũka kũrĩ Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai.
The captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those who were to come in on the Sabbath, with those who were to go out on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 Nake akĩhe anene acio matimũ na ngo iria ciarĩ cia Mũthamaki Daudi, iria ciakoragwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
The priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been king David's, which were in the house of the LORD.
11 Nao arangĩri, o mũndũ arĩ na indo ciake cia mbaara, magĩthiũrũrũkĩria mũthamaki hau hakuhĩ na kĩgongona, na magĩthiũrũrũkĩria hekarũ kuuma mwena wa gũthini nginya mwena wa gathigathini wayo.
The guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, around the king.
12 Jehoiada akĩrehe mũrũ wa mũthamaki akĩmwĩkĩra thũmbĩ, akĩmũnengera Ibuku rĩa Kĩrĩkanĩro, na akĩmwanĩrĩra atĩ nĩwe mũthamaki. Makĩmũitĩrĩria maguta, nao andũ makĩhũũra hĩ na makĩanĩrĩra makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mũthamaki arotũũra nginya tene!”
Then he brought out the king's son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, "Long live the king."
13 Rĩrĩa Athalia aaiguire inegene rĩa andũ na arangĩri, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ andũ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
14 Agĩcũthĩrĩria na akĩona mũthamaki arũgamĩte gĩtugĩ-inĩ o ta ũrĩa mũtugo warĩ. Nao anene na ahuhi tũrumbeta maarũgamĩte hakuhĩ na mũthamaki, nao andũ othe a bũrũri magakena makĩhuhaga tũrumbeta. Nake Athalia agĩtembũranga nguo ciake cia igũrũ, na akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ungumania! Ungumania!”
and she looked, and look, the king stood by the pillar, as the tradition was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes, and cried, "Treason. Treason."
15 Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai agĩatha anene a ita a thigari igana igana arĩa maarĩ arũgamĩrĩri a mbũtũ, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũrutũrũrei, mũmũrehe arĩ gatagatĩ ga thigari, na mũndũ o wothe ũngĩmuuma thuutha, ooragwo.” Nĩgũkorwo mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai nĩoigĩte atĩrĩ, “Ndakooragĩrwo hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.”
Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, "Bring her out between the ranks. Kill him who follows her with the sword." For the priest said, "Do not let her be slain in the house of the LORD."
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũnyiitĩra harĩa mbarathi ciatoonyagĩra igĩthiĩ nja cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki, makĩmũũragĩra hau.
So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entry to the king's house. She was slain there.
17 Nake Jehoiada akĩgĩa na kĩrĩkanĩro gatagatĩ ka Jehova, na mũthamaki, o na andũ, atĩ o nĩmegũtuĩka andũ a Jehova. Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩthondeka kĩrĩkanĩro gatagatĩ ka mũthamaki na andũ.
Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD's people.
18 Nao andũ othe a bũrũri magĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Baali na makĩmĩtharia. Makiunanga igongona na mĩhianano, na makĩũragĩra Matani ũrĩa warĩ mũthĩnjĩri-ngai wa Baali hau mbere ya igongona icio. Ningĩ Jehoiada mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai akĩiga arangĩri hau hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down; his altars and his images broke they in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. The priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
19 Nake agĩthiĩ na anene a ita arĩa maarũgamagĩrĩra ikundi cia thigari igana igana, na Akari, na arangĩri, o hamwe na andũ othe a bũrũri, na marĩ hamwe makĩruta mũthamaki hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova makĩmũtwara nyũmba ya ũthamaki matoonyeire kĩhingo-inĩ kĩa arangĩri. Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene kũu nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki.
He took the captains over hundreds, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the Gate of the Guard to the king's house. He sat on the throne of the kings.
20 Nao andũ othe a bũrũri magĩkena. Narĩo itũũra rĩkĩhoorera, tondũ Athalia nĩarĩkĩtie kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. Athaliah they had slain with the sword at the king's house.
21 Joashu aarĩ wa mĩaka mũgwanja rĩrĩa aambĩrĩirie gwathana.
Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
