Boqorradii Labaad 11
1 Catalyaah oo ahayd Axasyaah hooyadiis markay aragtay in wiilkeedii dhintay ayay kacday oo wada baabbi'isay farcankii reer boqor oo dhan.
When King Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah saw that her son had been killed, she commanded that all the members of Ahaziah’s family [who might become king] must be executed.
2 Laakiinse Yehooshebac oo ahayd Boqor Yooraam gabadhiisii, oo Axasyaahna walaashiis ahayd, waxay la tagtay Axasyaah wiilkiisii Yoo'aash, oo ay ka dhex xadday wiilashii boqorka ee la laayay, isagii iyo tii xannaanayn jirtayba, oo waxay gelisay qolka la seexdo, oo iyana Catalyaah way ka qariyeen, sidaas daraaddeed isagii lama dilin.
So Ahaziah’s sons were all about to be murdered. But Jehosheba, who was King Jehoram’s daughter and Ahaziah’s half-sister, took Ahaziah’s [very young] son Joash and hid him and (his nursemaid/the woman who took care of him) in a bedroom [in the temple]. So he was not killed.
3 Oo isna iyadii buu la joogay, oo wuxuu kula qarsoonaa gurigii Rabbiga intii lix sannadood ah; oo dalkiina waxaa u talisay Catalyaah.
He stayed with Jehosheba for six years. All during that time, he remained hidden in the temple, while Athaliah ruled [Judah].
4 Oo sannaddii toddobaad ayaa Yehooyaadaac u cid diray oo isugu yeedhay boqol u taliyayaashii u taliyey reer Kaarii iyo askartii ordi jirtay, oo gurigii Rabbiga ayuu keensaday; markaasuu axdi la dhigtay oo iyagii gurigii Rabbiga gudihiisa ku dhaariyey, dabadeedna wuxuu tusay wiilkii boqorka.
But during the next year, Jehoiada the Supreme Priest summoned the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards and the palace guards. He told them to come to the temple. There he required them to solemnly promise that they would do what he told them to do. And he showed King Ahaziah’s son Joash to them.
5 Wuuna amray oo ku yidhi, Idinku sidan yeela: meeshiinna saddexaad ee sabtida gashaa waa inay guriga boqorka ilaaliyaan;
He gave them these instructions: “There are three groups of you guards. When one group finishes their work on the Sabbath day, [divide yourselves into] three smaller groups. One group must guard the palace.
6 oo meel saddexaadna iridda Suur ha joogeen; meel saddexaadna ha joogeen iridda askartii ordi jirtay ka dambaysa; sidaas waa inaad guriga u ilaalisaan oo aad wax uga celisaan.
Another group must guard at the Sur Gate. The other group must guard at the gate behind the other groups.
7 Oo labadiinna guuto oo ah kulli inta sabtida baxda oo dhanba waa inay guriga Rabbiga ilaaliyaan iyagoo boqorka ku wareegsan.
The two groups that are not working on the Sabbath day must guard the temple [to protect little King Joash].
8 Oo idinku waxaad isku wareejisaan boqorka idinkoo nin waluba hubkiisa gacanta ku haysto, oo midkii safafka soo dhex gala ha la dilo, oo boqorkana la jira markuu baxayo iyo markuu soo gelayoba.
You must stand around the king wherever he goes, with your weapons in your hands. You must kill anyone who comes near you.”
9 Oo boqol u taliyayaashiina way yeeleen wixii wadaadkii Yehooyaadaac ahaa ku amray oo dhan; oo nin waluba wuxuu kaxeeyey raggiisii sabtida geli lahaa iyo kuwii sabtida bixi lahaa, oo waxay u yimaadeen wadaadkii Yehooyaadaac ahaa.
The officers [who supervised the guards] did what Jehoiada told them to do. Each one brought to Jehoiada the guards that he supervised—the guards who were just finishing their work and those who were about to start their work on the Sabbath day.
10 Markaasaa wadaadkii wuxuu boqol u taliyayaashii siiyey warmihii iyo gaashaammadii Boqor Daa'uud lahaa oo guriga Rabbiga yiil.
The priest distributed to the commanders of the guards the spears and shields that had belonged to King David, that were kept/stored in the temple.
11 Markaasay askartii isagoo nin waluba hubkiisii gacanta ku haysto istaageen guriga dhankiisii midig iyo ilaa dhankiisii bidix iyo meeshii allabariga agteeda iyo guriga agtiisa, oo boqorkii bayna isku wareejiyeen.
Then he commanded all the guards to stand in their positions, each one with his sword in his hand, all around the young king.
12 Markaasuu wiilkii boqorka soo bixiyey, oo wuxuu madaxa u saaray taajkii, markhaatifurkiina wuu siiyey; oo waxay ka dhigeen boqor, wayna subkeen, kolkaasay u sacbiyeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Boqorku ha noolaado.
Then he brought Joash out. He put the crown on his head and gave him a scroll on which were written the rules [that the kings needed to obey]. Then he poured some olive oil on Joash’s head and proclaimed that he was now the king. The people all clapped their hands and shouted, “We desire/hope that the king will live for many years!”
13 Oo Catalyaahna markay qayladii askarta iyo dadka maqashay ayay dadkii ugu timid gurigii Rabbiga.
When Athaliah heard the noise that was being made by the guards and the other people, she ran to the temple, where the people were gathered.
14 Oo bal eeg, boqorku wuxuu taagnaa tiirka agtiisa siday caadadu ahayd, oo saraakiishii iyo kuwii turumbada watayna boqorkay ag taagnaayeen; oo dadkii waddanka oo dhammuna way reyreeyeen oo turumbooyin afuufeen. Markaasaa Catalyaah dharkeedii iska jeexjeexday oo waxay ku qaylisay, Waa fallaagow, waa fallaagow!
She saw the new king standing there alongside one of the big pillars, which was the place at the temple where the kings usually stood. She saw that he was surrounded by the temple officers and men blowing trumpets, and that the people were shouting joyfully, and [some of] them were also blowing trumpets. She tore her clothes [to show her distress] and shouted, “You are traitors! You have tricked/deceived me!”
15 Markaasaa wadaadkii Yehooyaadaac ahaa amray boqol u taliyayaashii ciidanka u sarreeyey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Iyada soo bixiya oo safafka soo dhex mariya, oo kii soo raacana seef ku dila, waayo, wadaadku wuxuu yidhi, Iyada yaan lagu dhex dilin guriga Rabbiga.
Jehoiada [immediately] said, “Kill her, but do not kill her here at the temple of Yahweh! Take her away between two rows of guards. And kill anyone who tries to rescue her!”
16 Sidaas daraaddeed iyadii meel bay u banneeyeen, markaasay tagtay marinkii ay farduhu gurigii boqorka u mari jireen, oo halkaasaa lagu dilay.
[She tried to flee, but] the guards seized her and took her to the palace, to the place where horses enter the courtyard. They killed her there.
17 Markaasaa Yehooyaadaac sameeyey axdi u dhexeeya Rabbiga iyo boqorka iyo dadkaba inay iyagu ahaadaan Rabbiga dadkiisa, oo haddana wuxuu dhex dhigay boqorkii iyo dadkii.
Then Jehoiada made a solemn agreement between the king and the people, that they would always (obey/be faithful to) Yahweh. He also made an agreement requiring the people to be loyal to Joash their king.
18 Dabadeedna dadkii waddanka oo dhammu waxay tageen gurigii Bacal, oo way dumiyeen, oo meelihiisii allabariga iyo sanamyadiisii oo dhanna way wada burburiyeen, oo Mataan oo ahaa Bacal wadaadkiisiina waxay ku dileen meelihii allabariga hortooda. Oo wadaadkii wuxuu doortay kuwa gurigii Rabbiga u taliya.
Then all the people of Israel who were there went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and the statues of Baal. They also killed Mattan, the priest of Baal, in front of the altars. Jehoiada stationed/put guards at the temple of Yahweh.
19 Oo haddana wuxuu kaxeeyey boqol u taliyayaashii iyo kuwii reer Kaarii, iyo askartii ordi jirtay, iyo dadkii waddanka oo dhanba, oo waxay boqorkii ka soo dejiyeen gurigii Rabbiga, oo intay jidkii iridda waardiyayaasha soo mariyeen ayay keeneen gurigii boqorka. Oo isna wuxuu ku fadhiistay carshigii boqorrada.
Then he and the officers of the temple, the officers who supervised the royal bodyguards, and the king’s bodyguards brought the king from the temple to the palace. All the people [followed them]. Joash entered the palace at the Guard Gate and sat down on the throne, [which showed that he was the new king].
20 Sidaas daraaddeed dadkii waddanka oo dhammu way wada reyreeyeen, oo magaaladiina way xasilloonayd, oo Catalyaahna gurigii boqorka agtiisa ayay seef ku dileen.
All the people of Judah rejoiced. And because Athaliah had been killed, the city was quiet/calm.
21 Oo Yehoo'aashna toddoba sannadood buu jiray markuu boqor noqday.
Joash was seven years old when he became the king [of Judah].
