2 Chronicles 23
1 Ní ọdún keje, Jehoiada fi agbára rẹ̀ hàn. O dá májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú àwọn alákòóso ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún kan, Asariah ọmọ Jerohamu, Iṣmaeli ọmọ Jehohanani Asariah ọmọ Obedi, Maaseiah ọmọ Adaiah àti Elisafati ọmọ Sikri.
And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.
2 Wọ́n lọ sí gbogbo Juda, wọ́n sì pe àwọn ará Lefi àti àwọn olórí àwọn ìdílé àwọn ará Israẹli láti gbogbo àwọn ìlú jọ. Nígbà tí wọ́n wá sí Jerusalẹmu.
And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the heads of fathers’ [houses] of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.
3 Gbogbo ìpéjọ náà dá májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú ọba ní ilé Ọlọ́run. Jehoiada wí fún wọn pé, “Ọmọkùnrin ọba yóò jẹ ọba, bí Olúwa ti ṣèlérí nípa àwọn ìran Dafidi.
And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said unto them, Behold, the king’s son shall reign, as the LORD hath spoken concerning the sons of David.
4 Nísinsin yìí èyí ni ohun tí ó yẹ kí ó ṣe, ìdámẹ́ta àlùfáà yín àti àwọn ará Lefi tí ó ń lọ fún iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi ni kí ó bojútó àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn.
This is the thing that ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;
5 Ìdámẹ́ta yín níbi ààfin ọba àti ìdámẹ́ta níbi ẹnu odi ìdásílẹ̀ àti gbogbo ọkùnrin mìíràn ni kí ó wà ní àgbàlá ààfin ilé Olúwa.
and a third part shall be at the king’s house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.
6 Kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó gbọdọ̀ wọ inú ilé Olúwa yàtọ̀ sí àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi tí a rán ní iṣẹ́ ìsìn. Wọ́n lè wọlé nítorí tí a ti yà wọ́n sọ́tọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo ọkùnrin mìíràn ni kí wọn ó sọ ohun tí Olúwa ti yàn fún wọn.
But let none come into the house of the LORD, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall come in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of the LORD.
7 Àwọn ará Lefi gbọdọ̀ wà ní ìdúró ṣinṣin yí ọba ká. Olúkúlùkù pẹ̀lú àwọn nǹkan ìjà ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá wọ ilé Olúwa ni kí ẹ pa. Ẹ dúró ti ọba níbikíbi tí ó bá lọ.”
And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever cometh into the house, let him be slain: and be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.
8 Àwọn ará Lefi àti gbogbo ọkùnrin Juda ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jehoiada àlùfáà ti paláṣẹ. Olúkúlùkù mú àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ̀, àwọn tí wọ́n lọ fún iṣẹ́ ìsìn ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi àti àwọn tí wọ́n ń kúrò ní ibi iṣẹ́. Nítorí Jehoiada àlùfáà kò ì tí tú ìpín kankan sílẹ̀.
So the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with those that were to go out on the sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
9 Jehoiada àlùfáà, sì fi ọ̀kọ̀ àti asà, àti àpáta wọ̀n-ọn-nì, tí ó jẹ́ ti ọba Dafidi tí wọn wà ní ilé Ọlọ́run, fún àwọn balógun ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún.
And Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds the spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David’s, which were in the house of God.
10 Ó sì to gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ti ọba káàkiri, olúkúlùkù pẹ̀lú ohun ìjà rẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀, láti apá ọ̀tún ilé náà títí dé apá òsì ilé náà, lẹ́bàá pẹpẹ àti lẹ́bàá ilé náà.
And he set all the people, every man with his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, by the king round about.
11 Jehoiada àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ mú ọmọkùnrin ọba jáde wá wọ́n sì gbé adé sórí rẹ̀; wọ́n mú ẹ̀dà májẹ̀mú kan fún un. Wọ́n sì kéde rẹ̀ lọ́ba. Wọ́n fi àmì òróró yàn án, wọ́n sì kígbe pé, “Kí ọba kí ó pẹ́!”
Then they brought out the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony, and made him king: and Jehoiada and his sons anointed him; and they said, God save the king.
12 Nígbà tí Ataliah gbọ́ igbe àwọn ènìyàn tí wọ́n ń sáré tí wọ́n ń kígbe ọba, ó lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn ní ilé Olúwa.
And when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:
13 Ó sì wò, sì kíyèsi, ọba dúró ní ibùdó rẹ̀ ní ẹ̀bá ẹnu-ọ̀nà, àti àwọn balógun àti àwọn afùnpè lọ́dọ̀ ọba, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà sì yọ̀, wọ́n sì fọn ìpè, àti àwọn akọrin pẹ̀lú ohun èlò ìyìn. Nígbà náà ni Ataliah fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya, ó sì kégbe wí pé, “Ọ̀tẹ̀! Ọ̀tẹ̀!”
and she looked, and, behold, the king stood by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets; the singers also [played] on instruments of music, and led the singing of praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, treason.
14 Jehoiada àlùfáà mú àwọn alákòóso ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún, tí ó wà ní àbojútó àwọn ọ̀wọ́ ogun, ó sì wá wí fún wọn pé, “Mú un jáde wá láàrín àwọn ọgbà, kí a sì fi idà pa ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá tẹ̀lé.” Nítorí tí àlùfáà ti wí pé, “Má ṣe pa á nínú ilé Olúwa.”
And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth between the ranks; and whoso followeth her, let him be slain with the sword: for the priest said, Slay her not in the house of the LORD.
15 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n fi ipá mú un kí ó tó dé ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé ẹṣin ti ilé ọba, wọ́n sì ti pa á níbẹ̀.
So they made way for her; and she went to the entry of the horse gate to the king’s house: and they slew her there.
16 Nígbà náà ni Jehoiada, dá májẹ̀mú pé òun àti àwọn ènìyàn àti ọba yóò jẹ́ ènìyàn Olúwa.
And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself, and all the people, and the king, that they should be the LORD’S people.
17 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn lọ sí ilé Baali, wọ́n sì fà á ya lulẹ̀. Wọ́n fọ́ àwọn pẹpẹ àti àwọn òrìṣà, wọ́n sì pa Mattani àlùfáà Baali níwájú àwọn pẹpẹ.
And all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.
18 Nígbà náà, Jehoiada tẹ àwòrán ilé Olúwa sí ọwọ́ àwọn àlùfáà tí wọ́n jẹ́ ará Lefi ẹni tí Dafidi ti fi ṣe iṣẹ́ ní ilé Olúwa láti tẹ ẹbọ sísun ti Olúwa bí a ti kọ ọ́ nínú òfin Mose, pẹ̀lú ayọ̀ àti orin kíkọ, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Dafidi ti pàṣẹ.
And Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the LORD under the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the LORD, to offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, according to the order of David.
19 Ó mú àwọn olùṣọ́nà wà ni ipò ìdúró ní ẹnu odi ilé Olúwa kí ẹni aláìmọ́ nínú ohunkóhun kó má ba à wọlé.
And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the LORD, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.
20 Ó mú pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ àwọn alákòóso ọ̀rọ̀ọ̀rún, àwọn ẹni ọlá, àwọn olórí àwọn ènìyàn àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà. Ó sì mú ọba sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá láti ilé Olúwa. Wọ́n lọ sínú ààfin láti ẹnu òde ti òkè. Wọ́n sì fi ọba jókòó lórí ìtẹ́.
And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the LORD: and they came through the upper gate unto the king’s house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.
21 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà sì yọ̀, ìlú náà sì dákẹ́ rọ́rọ́. Nítorí a pa Ataliah pẹ̀lú idà.
So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword.
