2 Ar-ari 12

1 Idi maikapito a tawen ni Jehu, nangrugi ti panagturay ni Joas; nagturay isuna iti las-ud ti uppat a pulo a tawen idiay Jerusalem. Ti nagan ti inana ket Zibia iti Beerseba.

In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash reigned. And he reigned for forty years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Zebiah from Beersheba.

2 Inaramid ni Joas ti nalinteg iti mata ni Yahweh iti amin a tiempo, gapu ta bilbilinen isuna ni Jehoyada a padi.

And Jehoash did what was right in the sight of the Lord, during all the days that Jehoiada, the priest, taught him.

3 Ngem saan a naikkat dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan. Nagidaton pay laeng ken nangpuor iti insenso dagiti tattao kadagitoy.

Yet still he did not take away the high places. For the people were still immolating, and burning incense, in the high places.

4 Kinuna ni Joas kadagiti papadi, “Amin dagiti kuarta a maipaay kadagiti banbanag a kukua ni Yahweh, ket maipan iti uneg ti balay ni Yahweh, dagiti naikeddeng a kuarta a pagbuis ti tunggal tao, ken dagiti amin a kuarta nga inted dagiti tattao a maipaay iti templo babaen iti panangtignay ni Yahweh kadagiti pusoda nga itedda—

And Jehoash said to the priests: “All of the money for the holy things, which has been brought into the temple of the Lord from those who pass by, which is offered for the price of a soul, and which they bring into the temple of the Lord willingly, from their own free heart:

5 rumbeng nga urnongen dagiti papadi dayta a kuarta, tunggal maysa kadakuada manipud kadagiti agbaybayad iti buis, ket masapul a taripatoenda ti templo babaen iti daytoy, no kasapulan ti aniaman a pannakatarimaan.”

let the priests, according to their ranks, take and use it in order to repair the surfaces of the house, wherever they see anything in need of repair.”

6 Ngem idi maikaduapulo ket tallo a tawen ni Ari Joas, awan pay pulos ti natarimaan dagiti papadi iti templo.

And yet, even until the twenty-third year of king Jehoash, the priests did not repair the surfaces of the temple.

7 Pinaayaban ni Ari Joas ti padi a ni Jehoyada ken dagiti dadduma a papadi, ket kinunana kadakuada, “Apay nga awan pay a pulos ti natarimaanyo iti templo? Ita, saankayon a mangala iti kuarta kadagiti agbaybayad iti buis, ngem alaenyo dagiti naurnong maipaay iti pannakatarimaan ti templo ket itedyo kadagiti mangtarimaan.”

And king Jehoash called the high priest, Jehoiada, and the priests, saying to them: “Why have you not repaired the surfaces of the temple? Therefore, you may no longer accept money according to your ranks. Instead, return it in order that the temple may be repaired.”

8 Isu a saanen a napalubosan dagiti papadi nga umawat kadagiti kuarta manipud kadagiti tattao ken saanen nga isuda mismo ti mangtarimaan iti templo.

And so the priests were prohibited from accepting any more money from the people to repair the surfaces of the house.

9 Ngem ketdi, nangala ti padi a ni Jehoyada iti maysa a lakasa, inabutanna ti kalubna, ket inkabilna daytoy iti abay ti altar, iti makannawan a paset no sumrek ti maysa a tao iti balay ni Yahweh. Inkabil ditoy dagiti papadi nga agbanbantay iti ruangan ti templo dagiti amin a kuarta a naipan iti templo ni Yahweh.

And the high priest, Jehoiada, took a certain chest, and he opened a hole in the top, and he placed it beside the altar, to the right of those who were entering the house of the Lord. And the priests who kept the doors put all the money in it which was being brought into the temple of the Lord.

10 Tunggal makitada nga adun ti kuarta iti lakasa, mapan alaen dagitoy dagiti eskriba ti ari ken ti kangatoan a padi ket ikabilda ti kuarta kadagiti pagkargaan sada bilangen, ti kuarta a naalada iti templo ni Yahweh.

And when they saw that there was a great amount of money in the chest, the scribe of the king and the high priest went up and poured it out. And they counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord.

11 Inyawatda ti kuarta a nabilang kadagiti lallaki a nangaywan iti templo ni Yahweh. Imbayadda daytoy kadagiti karpentero ken dagiti agipatpatakder a nagtrabaho a maipaay iti templo ni Yahweh,

And they gave it out, by number and measure, to the hands of those who were over the masons of the house of the Lord. And they weighed it out to the carpenters and masons, to those who were working in the house of the Lord

12 ken dagiti agkabkabiti ken dagiti paratikap ti bato, tapno paggatangda kadagiti troso ken kadagiti natikap a batbato a pangtarimaan iti templo ni Yahweh, ken dagiti amin a kasapulan a bayadan a maipaay iti pannakatarimaan daytoy.

and restoring the surfaces, and to those who were cutting stones, and buying timber and stones to be cut, so that the repairs to the house of the Lord might be finished: for all that was needed toward the expenses in order to strengthen the house.

13 Ngem dagiti kuarta a naipan iti balay ni Yahweh ket saan a naibayad a maipaay iti pannakaaramid dagiti aniaman a kopa a pirak, dagiti pangarsang iti lampara, dagiti palanggana, dagiti trumpeta, wenno aniaman nga alikamen a balitok wenno pirak.

Yet truly, from the same money, they did not make for the temple of the Lord water pitchers, or small hooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold or silver, from the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord.

14 Intedda dagitoy a kuarta kadagiti nagtrabaho iti pannakatarimaan ti balay ni Yahweh.

For it was given to those who were doing the work, so that the temple of the Lord might be repaired.

15 Mainayon pay a kasapulan ti listaan ti kuarta a naibayad iti pannakatarimaan babaen kadagiti lallaki a nangawat kadagitoy ken nangitangdan daytoy kadagiti trabahador, gapu ta napudno dagitoy a lallaki.

And they did not ration the money to the men who received it in order to distribute it to the artisans. Instead, they bestowed it with faith.

16 Ngem saan a naipan iti templo ni Yahweh dagiti daton a kuarta a gapu iti panangsalungasing ken ti daton a kuarta a gapu iti panagbasol, gapu ta kukua dagitoy dagiti papadi.

Yet truly, the money for offenses and the money for sins, they did not bring into the temple of the Lord, since it was for the priests.

17 Ket rinaut ni Hazael nga ari ti Aram ti Gat, ket sinakupna daytoy. Ket ingkeddeng ni Hazael a rautenna ti Jerusalem.

Then Hazael, the king of Syria, ascended and fought against Gath, and he captured it. And he directed his face, so that he might ascend against Jerusalem.

18 Innala ni Joas nga ari ti Juda dagiti amin a banbanag a kukua ni Yahweh nga indaton da Jehosafat, Jehoram, Ahazias, dagiti ammana, ken dagiti ari ti Juda kenni Yahweh, dagiti nasagradoan a banbanag a kukuana, ken dagiti amin a balitok a makita kadagiti uneg ti siled a pagiduldulinan iti balay ni Yahweh ken ti ari; ket intedna dagitoy kenni Hazael nga ari ti Aram. Kalpasanna, pimmanaw ni Hazael manipud idiay Jerusalem.

For this reason, Jehoash, the king of Judah, took all the sanctified things, which Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, the kings of Judah, had consecrated and which he himself had offered, and all the silver that could be found in the treasuries of the temple of the Lord and in the palace of the king, and he sent it to Hazael, the king of Syria. And so he withdrew from Jerusalem.

19 Dagiti met dadduma a banbanag a maipapan kenni Joas, dagiti amin nga inaramidna, saanda kadi a naisurat iti Libro dagiti Paspasamak kadagiti Ari ti Juda?

Now the rest of the words of Jehoash, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?

20 Nagtutulag dagiti adipenna ket nagpanggepda iti dakes; dinarupda ni Joas idiay Millo, iti dalan nga agpababa iti Silla.

Then his servants rose up and conspired among themselves. And they struck down Jehoash, at the house of Millo, on the descent of Silla.

21 Dinarup isuna da Josacar nga anak ni Simeat, Jozabad nga anak ni Somer ken dagiti adipenna, ket natay isuna. Intabonda ni Joas iti ayan dagiti kapuonanna iti siudad ni David. Ket ni Amazias nga anakna ti simmukat kenkuana nga ari.

For Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the city of David. And Amaziah, his son, reigned in his place.
