2 Chronicles 24
1 Joaṣi jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún méje nígbà tí ó jẹ ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ogójì ọdún. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ ni Sibia ti Beerṣeba.
Joash was seven years old when he began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
2 Joaṣi ṣe ohun tí ó dára ní ojú Olúwa ní gbogbo àkókò Jehoiada àlùfáà.
And Joash did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
3 Jehoiada yan ìyàwó méjì fún un, ó sì ní àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin.
And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begot sons and daughters.
4 Ní àkókò kan, Joaṣi pinnu láti tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to restore the house of the LORD.
5 Ó pe àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi jọ, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ sí àwọn ìlú Juda, kí ẹ sì gba owó ìtọ́sí láti ọwọ́ gbogbo Israẹli láti fi tún ilé Ọlọ́run yín ṣe.” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Lefi kò ṣe é lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà.
And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them: 'Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter.' Howbeit the Levites hastened it not.
6 Nítorí náà ọba pa á láṣẹ fún Jehoiada olórí àlùfáà ó sì wí fún un pé, “Kí ni ó dé tí o kò béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Lefi láti mú wá láti Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, owó orí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti fi lélẹ̀ àti nípasẹ̀ àpéjọ gbogbo Israẹli fún àgọ́ ẹ̀rí?”
And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and unto him: 'Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tent of the testimony?'
7 Nísinsin yìí, àwọn ọmọkùnrin obìnrin búburú ni Ataliah ti fọ́ ilé Ọlọ́run, ó sì ti lo àwọn nǹkan ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún àwọn Baali.
For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the hallowed things of the house of the LORD did they bestow upon the Baalim.
8 Nípasẹ̀ ọba, wọn ṣe àpótí wọ́n sì gbé e sí ìta, ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé Olúwa.
So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD.
9 A ṣe ìkéde ní Juda àti Jerusalẹmu wí pé wọ́n gbọdọ̀ mú wá fún Olúwa, owó orí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa ti béèrè lọ́wọ́ Israẹli ní aginjù.
And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
10 Gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì yọ̀, wọ́n sì mú un wá, wọ́n ń jù ú sínú àpótí títí tí ó fi kún.
And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
11 Nígbàkígbà tí a bá gbé àpótí wọlé láti ọwọ́ àwọn ará Lefi sí ọwọ́ àwọn ìjòyè ọba, tí wọ́n bá sì rí wí pe owó ńlá wà níbẹ̀ àwọn akọ̀wé ọba àti ìjòyè olórí àlùfáà yóò wá láti kó owó rẹ̀ kúrò, wọn yóò sì dá a padà sí ààyè rẹ̀. Wọ́n ṣe èyí déédé, wọ́n sì kó iye owó ńlá.
And it was so, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the chief priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it back to its place. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
12 Ọba àti Jehoiada fi fún àwọn ọkùnrin náà tí ó sì ń ṣiṣẹ́ nínú ilé Olúwa. Wọ́n fi owó gba ẹni tí ń fi òkúta mọ ilé àti àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà láti kọ́ ilé Olúwa padà, àti àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ pẹ̀lú irin àti idẹ láti tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to repair the house of the LORD.
13 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn tí ó ń ṣiṣẹ́ náà, sì lọ síwájú àti síwájú ní ọwọ́ wọn, wọ́n sì tún mú ilé Ọlọ́run dúró sí ipò rẹ̀, wọ́n mú un le.
So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set up the house of God in its state, and strengthened it.
14 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì parí rẹ̀ tán, wọ́n mú owó ìyókù wá sí iwájú ọba àti Jehoiada, a sì fi ohun èlò fún ilé Olúwa, àní ohun èlò fún ìsìn àti fún ẹbọ pẹ̀lú ọpọ́n, àní ohun èlò wúrà àti fàdákà. Wọ́n sì ń rú ẹbọ sísun ní ilé Olúwa nígbà gbogbo ní gbogbo ọjọ́ Jehoiada.
And when they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels wherewith to minister, and buckets, and pans, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt-offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n Jehoiada di arúgbó, ó sì kún fún ọjọ́, ó sì kú, ẹni àádóje ọdún ni nígbà tí ó kú.
But Jehoiada waxed old and was full of days, and he died; a hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
16 Wọ́n sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi pẹ̀lú àwọn ọba, nítorí tí ó ṣe rere ní Israẹli, àti sí Ọlọ́run àti sí ilé rẹ̀.
And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and His house.
17 Lẹ́yìn ikú Jehoiada, àwọn oníṣẹ́ Juda wá láti fi ìforíbalẹ̀ wọn hàn sí ọba. Ó sì fèsì sí wọn.
Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and prostrated themselves before the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
18 Wọ́n pa ilé Olúwa tì, Ọlọ́run baba a wọn. Wọ́n sì ń sin àwọn ère Aṣerah àti àwọn òrìṣà. Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn yìí, ìbínú Ọlọ́run dé sórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
And they forsook the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
19 Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, Olúwa rán àwọn wòlíì sí àwọn ènìyàn láti mú wọn padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀. Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé, wọ́n jẹ́rìí nípa wọn, wọn kì yóò gbọ́.
Yet He sent prophets to them, to bring them back unto the LORD; and they admonished them, but they would not give ear.
20 Nígbà náà, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run wá sórí Sekariah ọmọ Jehoiada wòlíì, ó dúró níwájú àwọn ènìyàn ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: ‘Kí ni ó dé tí ẹ̀yin kò fi tẹ̀lé àṣẹ Olúwa? Ìwọ kì yóò ṣe rere. Nítorí tí ìwọ ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀, òun pẹ̀lú ti kọ̀ yín sílẹ̀.’”
And the spirit of God clothed Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said unto them: 'Thus saith God: Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, He hath also forsaken you.'
21 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n dìtẹ̀ sí i, àti nípa àṣẹ ọba, wọ́n sọ ọ́ lókùúta pa nínú àgbàlá ààfin ilé Olúwa.
And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD.
22 Ọba Joaṣi kò rántí inú rere tí Jehoiada baba Sakariah ti fihàn án ṣùgbọ́n, ó pa ọmọ rẹ̀, tí ó wí bí ó ti ń kú lọ pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó rí èyí kí ó sì pè ọ́ sí ìṣirò.”
Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said: 'The LORD look upon it, and require it.'
23 Ní òpin ọdún, àwọn ọmọ-ogun Aramu yàn láti dojúkọ Joaṣi; wọ́n gbógun ti Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n sì pa gbogbo àwọn aṣáájú àwọn ènìyàn. Wọ́n rán gbogbo àwọn ìkógun sí ọba wọn ní Damasku.
And it came to pass, when the year was come about, that the army of the Arameans came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
24 Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, àwọn ọmọ-ogun Aramu ti wá pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin díẹ̀ Olúwa sì fi ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ọmọ-ogun lé wọn lọ́wọ́, nítorí tí Juda ti kọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn sílẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì ṣe ìdájọ́ Joaṣi.
For the army of the Arameans came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment upon Joash.
25 Nígbà tí àwọn ará Aramu kúrò, wọ́n fi Joaṣi sílẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọ̀pọ̀ ọgbẹ́. Àwọn oníṣẹ́ rẹ̀ dìtẹ̀ si fún pípa ọmọ Jehoiada àlùfáà, wọ́n sì pa á ní orí ibùsùn rẹ̀. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ó sì kú, a sì sin ín sínú ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe nínú àwọn ibojì àwọn ọba.
And when they were departed from him — for they left him in great diseases — his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died; and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
26 Àwọn tí ó dìtẹ̀ sì jẹ́ Sabadi, ọmọ Ṣimeati arábìnrin Ammoni àti Jehosabadi ọmọ Ṣimiriti arábìnrin Moabu.
And these are they that conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
27 Àkọsílẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa rẹ̀, àti àkọsílẹ̀ ti ìmúpadà sípò ilé Ọlọ́run ní a kọ sínú ìwé ìtumọ̀ ti àwọn ọba. Amasiah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
Now concerning his sons, and the multitude of the burdens against him, and the rebuilding of the house of God, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
