Luo Chronicle 23
1 Tukun yac onkosr, Jehoiada mwet tol, el wotela mu pacl fal in oasr ma orek. El orala sie pwapa yurin captain limekosr lun un mwet mweun inge: Azariah wen natul Jeroham, Ishmael wen natul Jehohanan, Azariah wen natul Obed, Maaseiah wen natul Adaiah, ac Elishaphat wen natul Zichri.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
2 Elos fahsrelik nu in siti nukewa lun Judah, ac usani mwet Levi ac sifen sou nukewa nu Jerusalem.
And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 Elos nukewa tukeni nu in Tempul, ac elos orala sie wulela yorol Joash, wen natul tokosra. Jehoiada el fahk nu selos, “Pa inge wen nutin tokosra se ma tufahna misa ah. El ac tokosrala inge, in oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh wulela mu mwet in sou lal David pa ac tokosra.
And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said to them, Behold, the king’s son shall reign, as the LORD has said of the sons of David.
4 Pa inge ma kut ac oru. Ke mwet tol ac mwet Levi elos ac tuku in oru ma kunalos ke len Sabbath, na sie tafu tolu selos ac taran mutunoa nu ke Tempul,
This is the thing that you shall do; A third part of you entering on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;
5 ac sie tafu tolu selos ac taran lohm sin tokosra, ac mwet lula ac fah som nu ke Mutunpot Pwelung. Na mwet nukewa ac fah toeni ke nien tukeni likin Tempul uh.
And a third part shall be at the king’s house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.
6 Wangin mwet ac fah utyak nu in Tempul sayen mwet tol ac mwet Levi, su oasr ma kunalos we. Elos ku in utyak mweyen elos aknasnasyeyuk tari, ac mwet nukewa saya enenu in akos na ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac muta likinum uh.
But let none come into the house of the LORD, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of the LORD.
7 Mwet Levi elos ac tu raunella tokosra, ac sruok na cutlass natulos, ac elos ac fah welul tokosra nu yen nukewa el ac som nu we. Kutena mwet su srike in utyak nu in Tempul ac fah anwuki.”
And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whoever else comes into the house, he shall be put to death: but be you with the king when he comes in, and when he goes out.
8 Mwet Levi ac mwet Judah elos oru oana ma Jehoiada, mwet tol, el sapkin. Kais sie un mwet inge tiana filfilla in som finne safla pacl in orekma lalos in Tempul. Ke ma inge, u sasu se ma ac tuku, ac u se ma safla pacl la, elos ac tukenina muta akola nu ke sap lun captain lun mwet mweun.
So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go out on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
9 Jehoiada el sang osra, ac mwe loeyuk yohk ac mwe loeyuk srik, su ma natul Tokosra David ma oanna in Tempul, nu sin captain lun un mwet mweun uh.
Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David’s, which were in the house of God.
10 El kitalik mwet mweun ma sruok cutlass natulos in tu yen nukewa mutun Tempul uh, in taranul tokosra.
And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.
11 Na Jehoiada el pwanulla Joash nu likinuma, ac sang tefuro se nu fin sifacl, oayapa sie ma simla ke ma oakwuk nu sin sie tokosra. Ouinge Joash el tokosrala. Jehoiada mwet tol, ac wen natul, elos mosrwella Joash, na mwet nukewa sala, “Lela in paht moul lal tokosra!”
Then they brought out the king’s son, and put on him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.
12 Athaliah el lohngak ke mwet uh sasa in akfulatyal tokosra, na el sulaklak som nu ke Tempul, yen mwet uh tukeni we.
Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
13 Na el ngetla liye tokosra sasu sac ke nien utyak nu in Tempul, su tu ke sru soko ma srisrila nu sin tokosra, rauniyukla sin captain lun mwet mweun ac mwet ukuk. Mwet nukewa sasa ke engan ac ukya mwe ukuk, ac mwet on lun Tempul elos srital ke mwe on natulos ac kol akfulat ma orek inge. Athaliah el foloyak ac seya nuknuk lal, ac wowoyak ac fahk, “Sulallal! Sulallal!”
And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason.
14 Jehoiada el tia lungse in anwuki Athaliah sisken Tempul uh. Ouinge el pangon captain lun un mwet mweun ac fahk nu selos, “Usalla inmasrlon tak lun mwet mweun an, ac uniya kutena mwet su srike in molella.”
Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Have her forth of the ranges: and whoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest said, Slay her not in the house of the LORD.
15 Elos sruokilya ac usalla nu lohm sin tokosra, ac elos unilya sisken Mutunpot Horse.
So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king’s house, they slew her there.
16 Jehoiada, mwet tol, el orala sie wulela tuh el, ac Tokosra Joash, ac mwet uh, ac fah mwet lun LEUM GOD.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the LORD’s people.
17 Na elos nukewa som nu ke tempul lal Baal ac kunausla. Elos fukulya loang we ac ma sruloala we, ac unilya Mattan, mwet tol lun Baal, sisken loang we.
Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and broke it down, and broke his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Jehoiada el sang orekma nukewa in Tempul in oan inpoun mwet tol ac mwet Levi. Elos in oru oana oakwuk lal Tokosra David nu selos ac in furreak ma ac kisakinyuk nu sin LEUM GOD, fal nu ke Ma Sap lal Moses. Ma pac kunalos in karingin on ac pacl in akfulat.
Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the LORD by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the LORD, to offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by David.
19 Jehoiada el oayapa filiya mwet topang ke mutunoa in Tempul, tuh kutena mwet su tia nasnas fal nu ke oakwuk lun alu, in tia utyak nu we.
And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the LORD, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20 Captain lun un mwet mweun, sifen sou, mwet kacto, ac mwet nukewa saya, elos welul Jehoiada pwanulla tokosra liki Tempul nu ke lohm sin tokosra. Elos utyak ke mutunpot se ma oa emeet, na tokosra el som muta fin tron lal ah.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the LORD: and they came through the high gate into the king’s house, and set the king on the throne of the kingdom.
21 Insien mwet nukewa sessesla ke engan, ac siti sac muta misla tukun Athaliah el anwuki.
And all the people of the land rejoiced: and the city was quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.
