1 Aa ie amy taom-pahafitoy, le nihafatratse t’Iehoiada, le rinambe’e o mpifehe-zatoo naho i Azarià ana’ Ierohame naho Ismaele ana’ Iehonane naho i Azarià ana’ i Ovede naho i Maaseià ana’ i Adaià naho i Elisafate ana’ i Zikrý vaho nifañina am’ iereo.
And in the seventh year Joiada being encouraged, took the captains of hundreds, to wit, Azarias the son of Jeroham, and Ismahel the son of Johanan, and Azarias the son of Obed, and Maasias the son of Adaias, and Elisaphat the son of Zechri: and made a covenant with them.
2 Le nanitsike Iehodà iereo nanontoñe o nte-Levio amo hene’ rova’ Iehodao naho o talèn’ anjomban-droae’ Israeleo vaho niheo mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And they went about Juda, and gathered together the Levites out of all the cities of Juda, and the chiefs of the families of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 Nifañina amy mpanjakay añ’anjomban’ Añahare ao i fivori-bey iabiy, le hoe t’Iehoiada am’ iereo: Heheke te hifehe ty ana’ i mpanjakay amy tsara’ Iehovà ty amo ana’ i Davi­deoy.
And all the multitude made a covenant with the king in the house of God: and Joiada said to them: Behold the king’s son shall reign, as the Lord hath said of the sons of David.
4 Zao ty hanoe’ areo: ty faha-telo’ areo mpisoroñe naho nte-Levy mpizilik’ ao amy Sabatay ro hañambeñe o lalambeio;
And this is the thing that you shall do:
5 ty faha-telo’e ty ho añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay; ty faha-telo’e ty ho an-dalambei’ i manantañey; vaho ho an-kiririsan’ anjomba’ Iehovà eo ondaty iabio.
A third part of you that come to the sabbath, of the priests, and of the Levites, and of the porters, shall be at the gates: and a third part at the king’s house: and a third at the gate that is called the Foundation: but let all the rest of the people be in the courts of the house of the Lord.
6 Ko ado’ areo himoak’ añ’ anjom­ba’ Iehovà ao ndra ia’ia naho tsy o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levy mpitoroñeo avao; ie ro hizilik’ ao, amy te miavake; vaho fonga hambena’ ondatio o fanoroa’ Iehovào.
And let no one come into the house of the Lord, but the priests, and they that minister of the Levites: let them only come in, because they are sanctified: and let all the rest of the people keep the watches of the Lord.
7 Hañarikatoke i mpanjakay o nte-Levio, songa hitañe ty fialia’e am-pità’e; le ho vonoeñe ze ila’e mimoak’ amy anjombay; vaho inahareo, mindreza amy mpanjakay ndra t’ie mizilike ndra te miakatse.
And let the Levites be round about the king, every man with his arms; (and if any other come into the temple, let him be slain; ) and let them be with the king, both coming in, and going out.
8 Aa le nanoe’ o nte-Levio naho Iehoda iaby ze linili’ Iehoiada, mpisoroñe, le songa rinambe’e ondati’eo, o hizilik’ amy Sabotseio naho o hiakatse amy Sabotseio; amy te tsy navotso’ Iehoiada o mpirimboñeo.
So the Levites, and all Juda did according to all that Joiada the high priest bad commanded: and they took every one his men that were under him, and that came in by the course of the sabbath, with those who had fulfilled the sabbath, and were to go out. For Joiada the high priest permitted not the companies to depart, which were accustomed to succeed one another every week.
9 Mbore zinara’ Iehoiada, mpisoroñe amo mpifehe-zatoo o lefoñe naho fikalañ’ araña naho fikalan-defo’ i Davide mpanjaka, boak’ añ’ anjomban’ Añahareo.
And Joiada the priest gave to the captains the spears, and the shields, and targets of king David, which he had dedicated in the house of the Lord.
10 Le nalaha’e ondaty iabio, songa reke-pialiañe am-pità’e, boak’ ankavana’ i anjombay pak’ ankavia’ i anjombay, am-piozañe amy kitreliy naho amy anjombay, añarisehoañe i mpanjakay.
And he set all the people with swords in their hands from the right side of the temple, to the left side of the temple, before the altar, and the temple, round about the king.
11 Nampiavote’ iereo amy zao i ana-mpanjakay naho naombe ama’e i sabakay naho natolotse aze i fañinay vaho nanoeñe mpanjaka, noriza’ Iehoiada naho o ana’eo vaho nanao ty hoe: Maha­velo ry mpanjaka.
And they brought out the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and the testimony, and gave him the law to hold in his hand, and they made him king: and Joiada the high priest and his sons anointed him: and they prayed for him, and said: God save the king.
12 Ie tsinano’ i Atalià ty fikoraha’ ondaty nilay handrenge i mpanjakaio le nimoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao mb’am’ ondatio mb’eo.
Now when Athalia heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came in to the people, into the temple of the Lord.
13 Niisa’e te inge nijohañe marine i faha’ey am-pimoahañe eo i mpanjakay naho nitotok’ amy mpanjakay o roandriañeo naho o mpitan-trompetrao naho nirebeke iaby ondati’ i taneio naho nampipopò trompetra naho nitintim-pititihañe o mpi­saboo, nisabo vaho nitarike am-pandrengeañe. Aa le niriate’ i Atalià o saro’eo nanao ty hoe: Fiola! Fiola!
And when she saw the king standing upon the step in the entrance, and the princes, and the companies about him, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and sounding with trumpets, and playing on instruments of divers kinds, and the voice of those that praised, she rent her garments, and said: Treason, treason.
14 Nampiakare’ Iehoiada amo mpifehe-zato nifeleke i valobohòkeio re, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Akaro añivo’ o firimboñañe añ’anjombao re, le zevò am-pibara ze mañorik’ aze; ami’ty nandilia’ i mpisoroñey ty hoe: Ko vonoeñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
And Joiada the high priest going out to the captains, and the chiefs of the army, said to them: Take her forth without the precinct of the temple, and when she is without let her be killed with the sword. For the priest commanded that she should not be killed in the house of the Lord.
15 Aa le tsinepa’ iareo am-pitàñe; le ie pok’ amy fimoahan-tsoavalan’ anjombam-panjakay le zinevo’ iereo.
And they laid hold on her by the neck: and when she was come within the horse gate of the palace, they killed her there.
16 Le nifañina añivo’e naho ondaty iabio vaho i mpanjakay t’Iehoida, t’ie ho ondati’ Iehovà.
And Joiada made a covenant between himself and all the people, and the king, that they should be the people of the Lord.
17 Aa le nomb’an-traño’ i Baale mb’eo ondaty iabio nandrotsak’ aze, nandemok’ o kitreli’eo naho o sare’eo, vaho vinono’ iareo t’i Matane mpisoro’ i Baale aolo’ o kitrelio.
And all the people went into the house of Baal, and destroyed it: and they broke down his altars and his idols: and they slew Mathan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Le tinendre’ Iehoiada o mpifehe’ i anjomba’ Iehovào ho ambanem-pità’ o mpisoroñe nte-Levy zinara’ i Davide am-pirimboñañe mifandimbe añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao hañenga soroñe am’ Iehovào, ty amy nanokirañe amy Tsara’ i Mosèy, am-pirebehañe naho takasy nampanoe’ i Davide.
And Joiada appointed overseers in the house of the Lord, under the hands of the priests, and the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the Lord: to offer holocausts to the Lord, as it is written in the law of Moses, with joy and singing, according to the disposition of David.
19 Tinendre’e ka o mpiamben-dala’ i anjomba’ Iehovàio, soa tsy aman-dalañe hiziliha’e t’indaty tsy malio.
He appointed also porters in the gates of the house of the Lord, that none who was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20 Le nendese’e o mpifele-jatoo naho o roandriañeo naho o mpifelek’ ondatio naho ze hene ondati’ i taney vaho nampizotsoe’e boak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao i mpanjakay; le nizilik’ amy lalambey amboney mb’ añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay mb’eo re vaho nampiambesareñe am-piambesam-pifeheañe eo i mpanjakay.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the most valiant men, and the chiefs of the people, and all the people of the land, and they brought down the king from the house of the Lord, and brought him through the upper gate into the king’s house, and set him on the royal throne.
21 Le nandia taroba iaby ondati’ i taneio vaho nitofa i rovay amy te vinono am-pibara t’i Atalià.
And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet: but Athalia was slain with the sword.
