2 Mpanjaka 12

1 Ary tamin’ ny taona fahafito nanjakan’ i Jeho no vao nanjaka izy; ary efa-polo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Zibia, avy any Beri-sheba.

Joas began to reign in the seventh year of Ju, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Sabia of Bersabee.

2 Ary Joasy nanao izay mahitsy eo imason’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny androny rehetra izay nanoloran’ i Joiada mpisorona saina azy.

And Joas did that which was right in the sight of the Lord all the days that Jodae the priest instructed him.

3 Nefa kosa ny fitoerana avo tsy mba noravana; ary ny olona mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra sady nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teo amin’ ny fitoerana avo ihany.

Only there were not [any] of the high places removed, and the people still sacrificed there, and burnt incense on the high places.

4 Ary hoy Joasy tamin’ ny mpisorona: Ny vola amin’ ny zava-masìna rehetra izay nampidirina tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia ny volan’ ny olona voaisa sy ny vola rehetra izay azo tamin’ ny tomban’ olona ary ny vola rehetra Izay nentin’ ny isan-olona an-tsitrapo ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah,

And Joas said to the priests, [As for] all the money of the holy things that is brought into the house of the Lord, the money of valuation, [as] each man brings the money of valuation, all the money which any man may feel disposed to bring into the house of the Lord,

5 aoka horaisin’ ny mpisorona amin’ ny olom-pantany avy izany ka hanamboarany ny simba amin’ ny trano, na amin’ inona na amin’ inona no hitany misy simba.

let the priests take it to themselves, every man from [the proceeds of] his sale: and they shall repair the breaches of the house in all [places] wherever a breach shall be found.

6 Kanjo hatramin’ ny fahatelo amby roa-polo taona nanjakan’ i Joasy mpanjaka dia tsy mbola voavoatry ny mpisorona ihany ny simba tamin’ ny trano.

And it came to pass in the twenty-third year of king Joas the priests [had] not repaired the breaches of the house.

7 Ka dia niantso an’ i Joiada mpisorona sy ny mpisorona sasany koa Joasy mpanjaka ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana ianareo no tsy nanamboatra ny simba amin’ ny trano? Koa ankehitriny, aza mandray vola amin’ ny olom-pantatrareo intsony ianareo, fa omeo hanamboarana ny simba amin’ ny trano ny vola.

And king Joas called Jodae the priest, and the [other] priests, and said to them, Why have you not repaired the breaches of the house? now then receive no [more] money from your sales, for you shall give it to [repair the] breaches of the house.

8 Ary ny mpisorona nanaiky tsy handray vola amin’ ny olona intsony sady tsy hanamboatra ny simba amin’ ny trano.

And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, and not to repair the breaches of the house.

9 Fa Joiada mpisorona naka vata anankiray, dia noloahany ny rakony, ary napetrany teo anilan’ ny alitara tamin’ ny sisiny ankavanana eo am-pidirana amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah; dia nalatsaky ny mpisorona, mpiandry varavarana, tao ny vola rehetra izay nampidirina ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.

And Jodae the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it by the altar in the house of a man [belonging to] the house of the Lord, and the priests that kept the door put [therein] all the money that was found in the house of the Lord.

10 Ary rehefa hitany fa be ny vola tao am-bata, dia niakatra ny mpanoratry ny mpanjaka sy ny mpisoronabe, ka nofonosiny ny vola izay hita tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sady nisainy.

And it came to pass, when they saw that [there was] much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest went up, and they tied up and counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord.

11 Ary ny vola voalanja dia natolotr’ ireo ho eo an-tanan’ ny mpiraharaha, dia izay voatendry ny amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah; ary ireo kosa namoaka azy ho amin’ ny mpandrafitra sy ny mpanao trano izay nanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah

And they gave the money that had been collected into the hands of them that wrought the works, the overseers of the house of the Lord; and they gave it out to the carpenters and to the builders that wrought in the house of the Lord.

12 sy ho amin’ ny mpandatsa-bato sy ny mpipaika, ary hamidy hazo sy vato voapaika hanamboarana ny simba amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy holanina amin’ izay rehetra hanamboarana azy.

And to the masons, and to the hewers of stone, to purchase timber and hewn stone to repair the breaches of the house of the Lord, for all that was spent on the house of the Lord to repair [it].

13 Nefa tsy nisy lovia volafotsy, na antsy, na lovia famafazana, na trompetra, na izay fanaka volamena sy volafotsy na inona na inona, natao ho amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny volafotsy nampidirina tao;

Only there were not to be made for the house of the Lord silver plates, studs, bowls, or trumpets, any vessel of gold or vessel of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the Lord:

14 fa nomeny ny mpiasa izany ka nentin’ ireo nanamboatra ny tranon’ i Jehovah.

for they were to give it to the workmen, and they repaired therewith the house of the Lord.

15 Ary tsy nampamoahiny ny olona izay notolorany ny vola homena ny mpiasa, fa nahatoky ireo.

Also they took no account of the men into whose hands they gave the money to give to the workmen, for they acted faithfully.

16 Fa ny vola natao fanati-panonerana sy fanatitra noho ny ota dia tsy mba nampidirina tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, fa an’ ny mpisorona kosa izany.

Money for a sin-offering, and money for a trespass-offering, whatever happened to be brought into the house of the Lord, went to the priests.

17 Ary tamin’ izany dia niakatra Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria, ary namely an’ i Gata ka nahafaka azy; ary nizotra niakatra hamely an’ i Jerosalema koa izy.

Then went up Azael king of Syria, and fought against Geth, and took it: and Azael set his face to go against Jerusalem.

18 Ary Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, naka ny zavatra rehetra izay nohamasinin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda razany, dia Josafata sy Jehorama sy Ahazia, mbamin’ ny zavatra nohamasinin’ ny tenany koa sy ny volamena rehetra hita tamin’ ny rakitra, na ny tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, na ny tao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka, ary nampitondrainy ho any amin’ i Hazaela, mpanjakan’ i Syria, izany; ka dia niverina tsy nankany Jerosalema Hazaela.

And Joas king of Juda took all the holy things which Josaphat, and Joram, Ochozias, his fathers, and kings of Juda [had] consecrated, and what he had himself dedicated, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the Lord's house and the king's house, and he sent [them] to Azael king of Syria; and he went up from Jerusalem.

19 Ary ny tantaran’ i Joasy sisa mbamin’ izay rehetra nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?

And the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?

20 Ary nitsangana ny mpanompon’ i Joasy ka niodina taminy, dia namono azy tao an-trano Milo, ao am-pidinana mankany Sila.

And his servants rose up and made a conspiracy, and struck Joas in the house of Mallo that is in Sela.

21 Fa Jozakara, zanak’ i Simata, sy Jozabada, zanak’ i Somera mpanompony namely azy ho faty; dia nalevina tao amin’ ny razany tao an-tanànan’ i Davida izy; ary Amazia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

And Jezirchar the son of Jemuath, and Jezabuth Somer's son, his servants, struck him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amessias his son reigned in his stead.
