U-Athaliya unina ka-Ahaziya wathi ebona ukuthi indodana yakhe isifile, waqhubeka ebulala bonke abendlunkulu.
2 Amma Yehosheba,’yar Sarki Yoram,’yar’uwar Ahaziya, ta ɗauki Yowash ɗan Ahaziya daga cikin’ya’yan sarkin da ake shiri a kashe, ta ɓoye. Ta ɓoye shi daga Ataliya a wurin mai lura da shi a ɗakin kwana; don kada a kashe shi.
Kodwa uJehoshebha, indodakazi yenkosi uJehoramu njalo engudadewabo ka-Ahaziya, wathatha uJowashi indodana ka-Ahaziya wamnqenqisa emsusa phakathi kwamakhosana ayesezabulawa. Wamfihla kanye lomlizane wakhe endlini yokulala emcatshisa ukuze u-Athaliya angaze ambona; yikho kasazange abulawe.
3 Ya kasance a ɓoye, shi da mai lura da shi, a haikalin Ubangiji shekara shida yayinda Ataliya take mulkin ƙasar.
Wahlala ecatshisiwe yena kanye lomlizane wakhe ethempelini likaThixo okweminyaka eyisithupha yokubusa kuka-Athaliya.
4 A shekara ta bakwai sai Yehohiyada ya aika a kira komandodin sojoji ɗari-ɗari, da Keretawa, da matsara, ya sa aka kawo masa su a haikalin Ubangiji. Ya ƙulla yarjejjeniya da rantsuwa da su a haikalin Ubangiji, sa’an nan ya nuna musu ɗan sarki.
Ngomnyaka wesikhombisa uJehoyada wamema abalawuli bamakhulu, amaKharithi kanye labalindi, bonke balethwa phambi kwakhe ethempelini likaThixo. Wenza isivumelwano labo wabafungisa ethempelini likaThixo. Wasebatshengisa indodana yenkosi.
5 Ya umarce su cewa, “Ga abin da za ku yi sa’ad da kuka zo aiki a Asabbaci, ku raba kanku kashi uku. Kashi ɗaya za su yi gadin gidan sarki,
Wabalaya wathi, “Nanku elizakwenza: Lina elisemaviyweni amathathu azabe elindile ngeSabatha, ingxenye yokuthathu yenu kumele ilinde isigodlo,
6 kashi ɗaya za su yi gadin Ƙofar Sur, kashi ɗaya kuma za su yi gadin ƙofar da take bayan’yan gadin fada. Dukan waɗannan ƙungiyoyi uku za su yi gadin fadan,
lengxenye yokuthathu eseSangweni laseSuri, lengxenye yokuthathu esangweni elingemuva kwabalindi, abazophisanayo ukulinda ithempeli,
7 ku kuma da kuke a sauran ƙungiyoyi biyu da kun saba hutu a Asabbaci, duk za ku yi gadin haikali don sarki.
lani elisemaviyweni amabili okuvame ukuthi lingasebenzi ngeSabatha, lonke lizalindela inkosi ithempeli.
8 Ku tsaya kewaye da sarki, kowane mutum da makaminsa a hannu. Duk wanda ya kusace ku, ku kashe shi. Ku manne wa sarki duk inda ya tafi.”
Lizalinda lizingelezele inkosi, ngulowo ehlomile ngesikhali sakhe esandleni sakhe. Loba ngubani osondela kini kumele abulawe. Hlalani liseduze kwenkosi loba ingaze iye ngaphi.”
9 Komandodin sojoji suka yi yadda Yehohiyada firist ya umarta. Kowa ya ɗauki mutanensa, waɗanda za su kama aiki Asabbaci da waɗanda za su kama hutun Asabbaci, suka zo wurin Yehohiyada firist.
Abalawuli bekhulu benza njengokulaywa kwabo nguJehoyada umphristi. Umlawuli munye ngamunye wathatha iviyo lakhe lamadoda lawo ayesiya ekulindeni ngeSabatha lalawo ayezakuba engasebenzi eza kuJehoyada umphristi.
10 Sai ya ba komandodin māsu da garkuwoyi da dā suke na Dawuda, waɗanda suke a cikin haikalin Ubangiji.
Ngakho yena wanika abalawuli imikhonto lamahawu ayengawenkosi uDavida ayegcinwa ethempelini likaThixo.
11 Matsaran kuma kowa da makaminsa a hannu, suka tsaya kewaye da sarki, kusa da bagade da kuma haikali, daga gefen kudu zuwa gefen arewa na haikalin.
Kwathi abalindi ngamunye, ephethe isikhali esandleni sakhe, bajama bephahle inkosi iseduze kwe-alithari lethempelini, kusukela ezansi kusiya enyakatho yethempeli.
12 Sai Yehohiyada ya fito da ɗan sarki ya sa masa rawani a kā; ya ba shi shafin alkawari, ya kuma furta shi sarki. Suka shafe shi da mai, mutane kuma suka yi ta tafi suka ihu, suna cewa, “Ran sarki yă daɗe.”
UJehoyada waseveza indodana yenkosi wayethwesa umqhele; wayiqhubela lesivumelwano sikaThixo wahle wamemezela ukuba isiyinkosi. Bayigcoba inkosi, abantu batshaya izandla bahlaba umkhosi besithi, “Mpilo ende enkosini!”
13 Sa’ad da Ataliya ta ji surutun matsara da na mutane, sai ta tafi wurin mutanen a haikalin Ubangiji.
U-Athaliya uthe esizwa umkhosi wokujabula kwabalindi kanye labantu bonke, waya ebantwini ngasethempelini likaThixo.
14 Da ta duba sai ga sarki, tsaye kusa da ginshiƙi, bisa ga al’ada. Hafsoshi da masu busa suna tsaye kusa da sarki, dukan mutanen ƙasar kuma suna farin ciki suna busa ƙahoni. Sai Ataliya ta keta tufafinta ta tā da murya tana cewa, “Kai! Wannan cin amana ne! Ai, wannan cin amana ne!”
Uthe ethi mehlo suka, wabona nansi inkosi, yayimi eduze kwensika njengomkhuba. Izikhulu labatshayi bamacilongo babesekele inkosi, abantu bonke bejabula ngokutshaya amacilongo. Ngakho u-Athaliya wadabula izembatho zakhe wamemeza esithi, “Umvukela! Umvukela!”
15 Yehohiyada ya umarci komandodin sojoji waɗanda suke lura da mayaƙa, ya ce, “Ku fitar da ita daga cikinku, ku kuma kashe duk wanda ya bi ta.” Gama firist ɗin ya ce, “Kada a kashe ta a cikin haikalin Ubangiji.”
UJehoyada waselaya abalawuli bekhulu, ababelawula amabutho wathi: “Mkhupheni limfake phakathi kwamaviyo amabutho limhlasele ngenkemba lowo ozama ukumlandela.” Ngenxa yokuthi umphristi wayethe, “Akumelanga abulawelwe ethempelini likaThixo.”
16 Saboda haka suka kama ta yayinda ta kai inda dawakai sukan shiga filin fada, a can kuwa aka kashe ta.
Ngakho bamdumela ekufikeni kwakhe endaweni lapha okungenela khona amabhiza esigodlweni, kulapho abulawelwa khona.
17 Sa’an nan Yehohiyada ya yi alkawari tsakanin Ubangiji da sarki da kuma mutane cewa za su zama mutanen Ubangiji. Ya kuma yi alkawari tsakanin sarki da mutane.
UJehoyada wasesenza isivumelwano phakathi kukaThixo lenkosi kanye labantu ukuthi bavume ukuba ngabantu bakaThixo. Wenza njalo isivumelwano phakathi kwenkosi labantu.
18 Sai dukan mutanen ƙasar suka tafi haikalin Ba’al suka rushe shi. Suka farfasa bagadai da kuma gumaka, suka kuma kashe Mattan wanda yake firist na Ba’al a gaban bagade. Sa’an nan Yehohiyada firist ya sa matsara a haikalin Ubangiji.
Abantu bonke belizwe baya ethempelini likaBhali bafika balidilizela phansi. Babhidliza ama-alithare lezithombe kwaba yizicucu, babulala uMathani umphristi kaBhali phambi kwama-alithare. Ngakho uJehoyada umphristi wasebeka abalindi ethempelini likaThixo.
19 Ya tafi tare da komandodin sojoji, Keretawa, matsara da kuma dukan mutanen ƙasar, tare kuwa suka kawo sarki daga haikalin Ubangiji zuwa cikin fada, ta ƙofar matsara. Sarki kuwa ya ɗauki mazauninsa a bisa kursiyin sarauta,
Wathatha abalawuli bamakhulu, amaKharithi, abalindi labantu bonke belizwe, sebendawonye behla lenkosi ethempelini likaThixo baya layo esigodlweni, bengenela esangweni labalindi. Inkosi yasithatha indawo yayo esihlalweni sobukhosi,
20 dukan mutanen ƙasar suka yi murna. Birnin ya sami salama don an kashe Ataliya da takobi a fada.
abantu bonke belizwe baba lokujabula okukhulu. Kwaba lokuthula emzini, ngoba u-Athaliya wayesebulewe ngenkemba esigodlweni.
