2 Wafalme 11
1 Basi Athalia, mama yake na Ahazia, alipoona kwamba mtoto wake amekufa, aliinuka na kuwaua watoto wote wa kifalme.
And Athaliah [the] mother of Ahaziah (she saw *Q(K)*) that he was dead son her and she arose and she destroyed all [the] offspring of royalty.
2 Lakini Yehosheba, binti wa mfalme Yehoramu na dada wa Ahazia, akamchukua Yoashi mwana wa Ahazia, na kumficha mbali mwa miongoni mwa watoto wa mfalme waliokuwa wameuawa, wakati wote pamoja na mlezi wake; akawaweka kwenye chumba cha kulala. Wakamficha kutoka Athalia kwa hiyo hakuuawa.
And she took Jehosheba [the] daughter of the king Joram [the] sister of Ahaziah Joash [the] son of Ahaziah and she stole him from among [the] sons of the king (who were about to be put to death *Q(K)*) him and suckling-nurse his in [the] chamber of the beds and they hid him from before Athaliah and not he was put to death.
3 Alikuwa pamoja na Yehosheba, wamejificha kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe, kwa mda wa miaka sita, wakati Athalia alipotawala juu ya nchi.
And he was with her [the] house of Yahweh hiding himself six years and Athaliah [was] reigning over the land.
4 Katika mwaka wa saba, Yehoyada alituma ujumbe na kuleta maamiri jeshi mamia wa Wakari na wa walinzi, na kuwaleta kwake mwenyewe, ndani ya nyumba ya Yahwe. Akafanya agano pamoja nao, na kuwaapisha kiapo katika nyumba ya Yahwe. Kisha akawaonyesha mtoto wa mfalme.
And in the year seventh he sent Jehoiada and he took - [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) of the Carian[s] and of the runners and he brought them to himself [the] house of Yahweh and he made to them a covenant and he made to swear an oath with them in [the] house of Yahweh and he showed them [the] son of the king.
5 Akawaamuru, akisema, “Hivi ndivyo mnavyotakiwa kufanya. Theluthi yenu mtakaokuja kwenye Sabato mtakuwa mkiiangalia nyumba ya mfalme,
And he commanded them saying this [is] the thing which you will do! the third [part] of you [who] come the sabbath and [who] keep [the] watch of [the] house of the king.
6 na theluthi mtakuwa langoni mwa Suri, na theluthi langoni nyuma ya walinzi.”
And the third [part] [will be] at [the] gate of Sur and the third [part] [will be] at the gate behind the runners and you will keep [the] watch of the house by turns.
7 Makundi mengine mawili ambayo hayatumikii Sabato, Mtayalinda juu ya nyumba ya Yahwe kwa ajili ya mfalme.
And [the] two the hands in you all [those who] go out the sabbath and they will keep [the] watch of [the] house of Yahweh to the king.
8 Ni lazima mumzunguke mfalme, kila mmoja na silaha zake kwenye mkono wake. Yeyote aingiaye ndani ya safu, auwawe. Lazima mkae pamoja na mfalme kila atokapo na kila aingiapo.
And you will surround the king all around everyone and weapons his in hand his and the [one who] comes into the ranks he will be put to death and be with the king when goes out he and when comes he.
9 Hivyo mamia ya maamri jeshi wakatii kila kitu Yehoyada kuhani alichokiamuru. Kila mmoja akachukua watu wake, wale ambao walitakiwa kuja kutumika siku ya hiyo Sabato, na wale ambao wataacha kuitumika kwenye hiyo Sabato; ndipo wakaja kwa Yehoyada kuhani.
And they did [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) according to all that he commanded Jehoiada the priest and they took each men his [those who] came the sabbath with [those who] went out the sabbath and they came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 Kisha Yehoyada yule kuhani akawapa mikuki na ngao mamia wa maamri jeshi ambayo ilikuwa mali ya mfalme Daudi ambayo ilikuwa kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe.
And he gave the priest to [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) the spear and the shields which [had belonged] to the king David which [were] in [the] house of Yahweh.
11 Basi walinzi wakasimama, kila mtu na silaha kwenye mkono wake, kutoka upande wa kuume wa hekalu, kwenda upande wa kushoto, karibu na madhabahu ya hekelu, wakimzunguka mfalme.
And they stood the runners everyone - and weapons his in hand his from [the] side of the house south to [the] side of the house north to the altar and to the house at the king all around.
12 Kisha Yehoyada akamleta nje mtoto wa mfalme Yoashi, na kumvalisha taji la kifalme, na kumpatia mikataba ya agano. Kisha wakamfanya mfalme na kummiminia mafuta. Wakapiga makofi wakisema, “Mfalme na aishi!”
And he brought out [the] son of the king and he put on him the crown and the testimony and they made king him and they anointed him and they struck a palm and they said may he live the king.
13 Wakati Athalia aliposikia sauti za walinzi na za watu, alikuja kwa wale watu kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe.
And she heard Athaliah [the] sound of the runners the people and she went to the people [the] house of Yahweh.
14 Akatazama, na, kisha, yule mfalme alikuwa amesimama kwenye nguzo, kama ilivyokuwa desturi, na manahodha na wapiga mabaragumu walikuwa karibu na mfalme. Watu wote wa nchi hiyo walikuwa wakifurahi na kupiga matarumbeta. Kisha Athalia akachana mavazi yake kwa hasira na kupiga kelele, “Uhaini! Uhaini!”
And she saw and there! the king [was] standing at the pillar according to the custom and the commanders and the trumpets [were] with the king and all [the] people of the land [was] joyful and [was] giving a blast on trumpets and she tore Athaliah clothes her and she called out treason treason.
15 Ndipo Yehoyada yule kuhani akawaagiza maamri jeshi wa mamia ambao waliokuwa juu ya jeshi, akisema, “Mtoeni kwenye safu.” Atakayemfuata, muueni kwa upanga.” Kwa kuwa kuhani alisema, “Msimwache auawe kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe.”
And he commanded Jehoiada the priest [the] commanders of (the hundreds *Q(k)*) [the] officers of the army and he said to them bring out her to from between to the ranks and the [one who] comes behind her put to death with the sword for he had said the priest may not she be put to death [the] house of Yahweh.
16 Hivyo wakamtwaa kadiri walivyokuwa wakiikaribia hiyo sehemu iliyokuwa na farasi wakaingia chini, na akauawa huko.
And they put to her hands and she went [the] way of [the] entrance of the horses [the] house of the king and she was put to death there.
17 Kisha Yehoyada akafanya agano kati ya Yahwe na mfalme na watu, ambao wangekuwa watu wa Yahwe, na pia kati ya mfalme na watu.
And he made Jehoiada the covenant between Yahweh and between the king and between the people to become a people of Yahweh and between the king and between the people.
18 Basi watu wote wa nchi wakaenda kwenye nyumba ya Baali na kuingusha chini. Wakaangusha madhabahu ya Baali na sanamu zake wakazivunja vipande vipande, na kumuua Matani, mfalme wa Baali, mbele ya haya madhabahu. Kisha Yehoyada kuhani akawachagua walinzi juu ya hekalu la Yahwe.
And they went all [the] people of the land [the] house of Baal and they pulled down it (altars its *Q(K)*) and images its they broke thoroughly and Mattan [the] priest of Baal they killed before the altars and he appointed the priest overseers over [the] house of Yahweh.
19 Yehoyada akawachukua maamiri jeshi wa mamia, Wakari, walinzi, na watu wote wa nchi, na kwa pamoja wakamleta chini mfalme kutoka kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe na wakaenda kwenye nyumba ya mfalme, wakaingia kwa njia ya lango la walinzi. Yoashi akachukua nafasi yake kwenye kiti cha enzi cha mfalme.
And he took [the] commanders of the hundreds and the Carian[s] and the runners and - all [the] people of the land and they took down the king from [the] house of Yahweh and they came [the] way of [the] gate of the runners [the] house of the king and he sat on [the] throne of the kings.
20 Hivyo watu wote wa nchi wakamsifu, na nchi ilikuwa kimya baada ya Athalia kuuawa kwa upanga kwenye nyumba ya mfalme.
And it rejoiced all [the] people of the land and the city it was at peace and Athaliah they had put to death with the sword [the] house of (the king. *Q(K)*)
21 Yoashi alikuwa na umri wa miaka saba tangu alipoanza kutawala.
[was] a son of Seven years Jehoash when became king he.
