2 Raja-raja 11
1 Ketika Atalya mengetahui bahwa Raja Ahazia, anaknya, sudah mati, ia memerintahkan supaya seluruh keluarga Ahazia dibunuh.
And when 'Athalyah the mother of Achazyahu saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2 Yoas anak Ahazia nyaris dibunuh juga bersama putra-putra raja yang lainnya, tetapi ia lolos karena diselamatkan oleh Yoseba bibinya. Yoas dan pengasuhnya dibawa dan disembunyikan di sebuah kamar tidur di Rumah TUHAN.
But Yehosheba', the daughter of king Joram, the sister of Achazyahu, took Joash the son of Achazyahu, and stole him away from among the king's sons that were slain, him and his nurse into the bed-chamber: and they hid him from 'Athalyah, so that he was not slain.
3 Enam tahun lamanya Yoseba memelihara anak itu di dalam Rumah TUHAN sewaktu Atalya memerintah sebagai ratu.
And he was with her in the house of the Lord hidden for six years, while 'Athalyah was reigning over the land.
4 Pada tahun ketujuh, para perwira pengawal pribadi ratu dan para pengawal istana dipanggil oleh Imam Yoyada untuk bertemu dengan dia di Rumah TUHAN. Di sana ia menyuruh mereka bersumpah untuk melaksanakan rencananya. Ia memperlihatkan Yoas, putra Raja Ahazia, kepada mereka,
And in the seventh year Yehoyada' sent and fetched the rulers over the hundreds, of the guards and the runners, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and made a covenant with them, and made them swear in the house of the Lord, and showed them the king's son.
5 dan memberi perintah ini, "Apabila kalian bertugas pada hari Sabat, sepertiga dari kalian harus berjaga di istana,
And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do: A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keeping watch in the king's house;
6 sepertiga lagi di pintu Gerbang Sur, dan selebihnya di pintu gerbang di belakang pengawal-pengawal yang lain.
And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the runners; so shall ye keep watch at the house, as a defence.
7 Kedua regu yang lepas tugas pada hari Sabat, hendaklah berjaga di Rumah TUHAN dengan pedang terhunus untuk melindungi Raja Yoas. Kalian harus mengawal dia ke mana saja ia pergi, dan setiap orang yang mencoba mendekati kalian, harus kalian bunuh."
And two parts of you all that are relieved on the sabbath, even they shall keep watch in the house of the Lord about the king.
And ye shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that cometh within the ranges shall be put to death: and be ye with the king when he goeth out and when he cometh in.
9 Para perwira itu mentaati perintah Yoyada dan membawa kepadanya anak buah mereka yang harus bertugas dan yang lepas tugas pada hari Sabat itu.
And the captains over the hundreds did in accordance with all that Yohayada' the priest had commanded: and they took every man his men that came in on the sabbath, with those that were to be relieved on the sabbath, and came to Yehoyada' the priest.
10 Yoyada memberikan kepada para perwira itu tombak-tombak dan perisai-perisai Raja Daud yang disimpan di Rumah TUHAN.
And the priest gave to the captains over the hundred the spears and shields that had belonged to king David, that were in the house of the Lord.
11 Lalu para pengawal, masing-masing dengan pedang terhunus, mengambil tempat mereka di sekeliling bagian depan Rumah TUHAN untuk melindungi raja.
And the runners stood every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, by the altar and within, round about the king.
12 Setelah itu Yoyada membawa Yoas ke luar, lalu meletakkan mahkota di kepalanya, dan menyerahkan kepadanya buku Hukum Allah. Yoas dilantik sebagai raja dan hal itu diumumkan kepada rakyat. Semua bertepuk tangan dan bersorak, "Hidup raja!"
And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon 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 Ratu Atalya mendengar sorak sorai para pengawal dan rakyat. Cepat-cepat ia pergi ke Rumah TUHAN, di mana orang banyak berkerumun.
And when 'Athalyah heard the noise of the runners [and] of the people, she came to the people in the house of the Lord.
14 Ia melihat raja yang baru itu berdiri di pintu masuk Rumah TUHAN di mana ia dinobatkan, dikelilingi oleh perwira-perwira dan peniup trompet. Seluruh rakyat bersorak gembira sambil trompet dibunyikan. Dengan cemas Atalya merobek pakaiannya, dan berteriak, "Khianat! Khianat!"
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood upon a stand, according to custom, and the princes and the trumpeters were by the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets: and 'Athalyah then rent her clothes, and cried, Conspiracy! conspiracy!
15 Yoyada tidak mengizinkan Atalya dibunuh di sekitar Rumah TUHAN, jadi ia berkata kepada para perwira, "Bawalah dia keluar melalui barisan pengawal dan bunuh siapa saja yang berusaha menyelamatkan dia."
But Yehoyada' the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the commanders of the army, and said unto them, Lead her forth to within the ranges: and him that followeth her put to death with the sword. For the priest had said, She shall not be slain in the house of the Lord.
16 Mereka menangkap dia, lalu membawanya ke istana. Di sana ia dibunuh di depan pintu Gerbang Kuda.
And they made way for her; and she went by the way of the entrance of the horses into the king's house: and she was put to death there.
17 Imam Yoyada menyuruh Raja Yoas dan rakyat membuat perjanjian dengan TUHAN bahwa mereka akan menjadi umat TUHAN. Ia juga menyuruh raja membuat perjanjian dengan rakyat.
And Yehoyada' made a covenant between the Lord and between the king and between the people, that they should be a people unto the Lord; and between the king and between the people.
18 Setelah itu rakyat menyerbu dan meruntuhkan kuil Baal. Mezbah serta patung-patungnya dihancurkan, dan Matan, imam Baal dibunuh di depan mezbah-mezbah itu. Yoyada menugaskan pengawal untuk menjaga Rumah TUHAN,
And then came all the people of the land into the house of Ba'al, and pulled it down: his altars and his images they broke in pieces thoroughly, and Mattan the priest of Ba'al they slew before the altars. And the priest appointed superintendents over the house of the Lord.
19 lalu ia bersama para perwira, para pengawal pribadi raja dan para pengawal istana serta seluruh rakyat mengarak Raja Yoas dari Rumah TUHAN ke istana. Yoas masuk melalui Gerbang Pengawal, lalu duduk di atas singgasana.
And he took the chiefs over hundreds, and the guards, and the runners, 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 runners to the king's house: and he sat on the throne of the kings.
20 Seluruh rakyat gembira, kota pun tenteram dan Atalya sudah dibunuh.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; but 'Athalyah they had slain with the sword at the king's house.
21 Yoas berumur tujuh tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja Yehuda.
Seven years old was Jehoash when he became king.
