1 Joash el mutawauk in tokosra fin acn Judah ke el yac itkosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac angngaul. Nina kial ah pa Zibiah, sie mutan Beersheba.
Ioash was seuen yere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned fourty yeere in Ierusalem: and his mothers name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
2 Joash el oru mwe insewowo nu sin LEUM GOD in pacl Jehoiada, mwet tol, el moul.
And Ioash did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, all the dayes of Iehoiada the Priest.
3 Jehoiada el sulela mutan luo kial Tokosra Joash, ac eltal oswela wen ac acn nu sel.
And Iehoiada tooke him two wiues, and he begate sonnes and daughters.
4 Tukun el tokosrala ke kutu yac, Joash el nunkauk in akwoyela Tempul.
And afterward it came into Ioash mind, to renew the house of the Lord.
5 El sap mwet tol ac mwet Levi in som nu in siti nukewa lun Judah, ac orani lupan mani sin mwet uh ma ac fal in akwoyela acn ma musalla ke Tempul ke yac sac. El fahk mu elos in oru in sa, tuh pa mwet Levi inge pahtlac.
And he assembled the Priests and the Leuites, and said to them, Goe out vnto the cities of Iudah, and gather of all Israel money to repaire the house of your God, from yeere to yeere, and haste the thing: but the Leuites hasted not.
6 Na el pangnolma Jehoiada, mwet kol lalos, ac multikin nu sel ac fahk, “Efu ku kom tia taran mwet Levi ingan in orani mani in tax sin mwet Judah ac Jerusalem, in oana ma Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el tuh oakiya mwet uh in moli in sang kasru Lohm Nuknuk Mutal sin LEUM GOD
Therefore the King called Iehoiada, the chiefe, and said vnto him, Why hast thou not required of the Leuites to bring in out of Iudah and Ierusalem the taxe of Moses the seruant of the Lord, and of the Congregation of Israel, for the Tabernacle of the testimonie?
7 Mwet ma welulla Athaliah, mutan koluk sac, elos tuh aktaekyala Tempul, ac orekmakin kutu ma mutal we nu ke alu lalos nu sin Baal.
For wicked Athaliah, and her children brake vp the house of God: and all the things that were dedicate for the house of the Lord, did they bestowe vpon Baalim.
8 Tokosra el sap mwet Levi in orala sie box in sang, ac filiya ke mutunoa in Tempul.
Therefore the King commanded, and they made a chest, and set it at the gate of the house of the Lord without.
9 Elos supwalik kas nu in acn nukewa in Jerusalem ac Judah, tuh kais sie mwet in use tax lalos, oana ma Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el tuh mutawauk oru yen mwesis.
And they made proclamation thorow Iudah and Ierusalem, to bring vnto the Lord the taxe of Moses the seruant of God, layde vpon Israel in the wildernesse.
10 Mwet uh, oayapa mwet kol lalos, elos insewowo ke ma se inge, ac elos usani tax lalos ac nwakla box sac.
And all the princes and all the people reioyced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, vntill they had finished.
11 Len nukewa mwet Levi elos ac usla box sac nu sin mwet roso lun tokosra su liyaung box sac. Fin sessesla, na mwet sim lun tokosra ac sie mwet aolyen mwet Tol Fulat ac usla ac okoala mani uh, na sifil folokunla box sac nu yen oan we uh. Ouinge lupan mani na yohk se ac orekeni.
And when it was time, they brought the chest vnto the Kings officer by the hand of the Leuites: and when they saw that there was much siluer, then the Kings Scribe (and one appoynted by the hie Priest) came and emptied the chest, and tooke it, and caried it to his place againe: thus they did day by day, and gathered siluer in abundance.
12 Tokosra ac Jehoiada ac sang mani inge nu sin mwet kol orekma ke Tempul, ac elos ac sang moli mwet tufahl eot, mwet kamtu, ac mwet orekma pac ke osra, tuh elos in sang orala kutena acn musalla ke Tempul.
And the King and Iehoiada gaue it to such as did the labour and worke in the house of the Lord, and hyred masons and carpenters to repayre the house of the Lord: they gaue it also to workers of yron and brasse, to repayre the house of the Lord.
13 Mwet nukewa moniyuk na in orekma, ac elos akwoyela Tempul arulana ku, oana ke tufahna orekla ah.
So the workemen wrought, and the worke amended through their hands: and they restored the house of God to his state, and strengthened it.
14 Ke pacl se tari orekma sac, ma lula ke gold ac silver itukyang nu sin tokosra ac Jehoiada, ac eltal sang ma inge orala ahlu ku kutu pac mwe orekmak ma ac eneneyuk nu ke Tempul. Ke lusen pacl Jehoiada el moul, kisa uh orek in Tempul fal nu ke pacl la.
And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the siluer before the King and Iehoiada, and he made thereof vessels for the house of the Lord, euen vessels to minister, both morters and incense cuppes, and vessels of golde, and of siluer: and they offred burnt offrings in the house of the Lord continually all the dayes of Iehoiada.
15 Tukun el arulana matu ac sun yac siofok tolngoul, na el misa.
But Iehoiada waxed olde, and was ful of dayes and dyed. An hundreth and thirtie yeere olde was he when he dyed.
16 Elos piknilya inkulyuk lun mwet leum in Siti sel David, in asmakin orekma wo el oru nu sin mwet Israel, nu sin God, ac nu ke Tempul.
And they buried him in the citie of Dauid with the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17 Tusruktu tukunna Jehoiada el misa, mwet kol lun Judah elos kifasulla Tokosra Joash elan wela pwapa lalos uh.
And after the death of Iehoiada, came the princes of Iudah, and did reuerence to the King, and the King hearkened vnto them.
18 Ouinge mwet uh tia sifil alu in Tempul lun LEUM GOD, su God lun papa tumalos, a elos mutawauk alu nu ke ma sruloala kacl god mutan Asherah ac ma sruloala pac saya. Mwatalos ke ma koluk lalos inge pa pwanang kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD tuku nu fin acn Judah ac Jerusalem.
And they left the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and serued groues and idoles: and wrath came vpon Iudah and Ierusalem, because of this their trespasse.
19 LEUM GOD El supwala mwet palu in akesmakinyalos elos in forla nu sel, a mwet uh srunga lohng.
And God sent Prophets amog the, to bring them againe vnto the Lord: and they made protestation among them, but they would not heare.
20 Na ngun lun God tuku nu facl Zechariah, wen natul Jehoiada mwet tol. El tu yen mwet uh ku in liyal we, ac wowoyak ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El siyuk lah efu ku kowos tia akos ma El sapkin, ac kowos use mwe ongoiya nu fowos sifacna! Kowos sisella, na pa El siskowosla!”
And the Spirit of God came vpon Zechariah the sonne of Iehoiada the Priest, which stoode aboue the people, and sayde vnto them, Thus sayth God, Why transgresse ye the commandements of the Lord? surely ye shall not prosper: because ye haue forsaken the Lord, he also hath forsaken you.
21 Tokosra Joash el weak mwet uh in lainul Zechariah, ac ke sap lal tokosra, mwet uh tanglal Zechariah ke nien tukeni inkul lun Tempul.
Then they conspired against him and stoned him with stones at the commandement of the King, in the court of the house of the Lord.
22 Tokosra el mulkunla orekma kulang ma Jehoiada, papa tumal Zechariah, el tuh oru nu sel, ac el sap anwuki Zechariah. Meet liki na Zechariah el ac misa, el wola ac fahk, “Lela LEUM GOD Elan liye ma kom oru an, ac kalyei kom!”
Thus Ioash the King remembred not the kindnesse which Iehoiada his father had done to him, but slewe his sonne. And when he dyed, he sayd, The Lord looke vpon it, and require it.
23 Ke apkuran in safla yac sac, mwet mweun lun Syria mweuni acn Judah ac Jerusalem. Elos uniya mwet kol nukewa, ac usla ma wap puspis ke elos folokla nu Damascus.
And when the yeere was out, the host of Aram came vp against him, and they came against Iudah and Ierusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoyle of them vnto the King of Damascus.
24 Mwet mweun lun Syria tia pus, tusruktu LEUM GOD El sang kutangla nu selos fin mwet mweun pus lun Judah, mweyen mwet Judah elos ngetla liki LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos. Pa inge kaiyuk ma orek nu sel Tokosra Joash.
Though the armie of Aram came with a small company of men, yet the Lord deliuered a very great armie into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers: and they gaue sentence against Ioash.
25 El arulana kinetneta, ac ke mwet lokoalok lal som tari, na luo sin mwet pwapa lal sifacna eltal orek pwapa sulallal, ac unilya fin mwe oan kial, in aol ke el tuh akmuseya wen natul Jehoiada, mwet tol. Pukpuki el in Siti sel David, tusruktu tia ke inkulyuk lun mwet leum.
And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases) his owne seruants conspired against him for the blood of the children of Iehoiada the Priest, and slewe him on his bed, and he dyed, and they buryed him in the citie of Dauid: but they buryed him not in the sepulchres of the Kings.
26 Mwet ma pwapa sulal ac unilya inge pa Zabad, wen nutin mutan Ammon se pangpang Shimeath, ac Jehozabad, wen nutin mutan Moab se pangpang Shimrith.
And these are they that conspired against him, Zabad the sonne of Shimrath an Ammonitesse, and Iehozabad the sonne of Shimrith a Moabitesse.
27 Sramsram ke mukul natul Joash, ac kas in palu lainul, oayapa ma simla ke orekma lal in akwoyela Tempul, oasr in [Book in Akkalemye Koanon Book In Tokosra]. Amaziah, wen natul, pa aolul in tokosra.
But his sonnes, and the summe of the taxe gathered by him, and the foundation of the house of God, behold, they are written in the storie of the booke of the Kings. And Amaziah his sonne reigned in his steade.
