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 Beersheba.
2 Joaṣi ṣe ohun tí ó dára ní ojú Olúwa ní gbogbo àkókò Jehoiada àlùfáà.
Joash did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the cohen.
3 Jehoiada yan ìyàwó méjì fún un, ó sì ní àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin.
Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he became the father of sons and daughters.
4 Ní àkókò kan, Joaṣi pinnu láti tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
It happened after this, that Joash intended 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.
He gathered together the cohanim and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter." However the Levites did not do it right away.
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?”
The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, "Why haven't you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, 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 God's house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD to the Baals.
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 outside 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.
They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on 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 leaders and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and threw it into the chest, until it was full.
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.
It was so, that whenever the chest was brought to 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 cohen's official came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. 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.
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 worked iron and bronze 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 worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands, and they set up God's house 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.
When they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, of which were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. 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 grew old and was full of days, and he died; one hundred 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.
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 the leaders of Judah came and paid homage to the king. And the king listened to 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.
They forsook the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and wrath came on 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 again to the LORD; and they testified against 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.’”
The Ruach of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the cohen; and he stood above the people, and said to them, "Thus says God, 'Why do you disobey the commandments of the LORD, so that you can't prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.'"
21 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n dìtẹ̀ sí i, àti nípa àṣẹ ọba, wọ́n sọ ọ́ lókùúta pa nínú àgbàlá ààfin ilé Olúwa.
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 did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, "May the LORD look at it, and repay 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.
It happened at the end of the year, that the army of the Arameans came up against him. And they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king in 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 army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on 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.
When they were departed for him (for they left him very sick), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the son of Jehoiada the cohen, and killed him on his bed, and he died; and they buried him in the City of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
26 Àwọn tí ó dìtẹ̀ sì jẹ́ Sabadi, ọmọ Ṣimeati arábìnrin Ammoni àti Jehosabadi ọmọ Ṣimiriti arábìnrin Moabu.
These are those who 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 many oracles against him, and the rebuilding of God's house, look, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
