1 C atalyaah oo ahayd Axasyaah hooyadiis markay aragtay in wiilkeedii dhintay ayay kacday oo wada baabbi'isay farcankii reer boqor oo dhan.

When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she rose and destroyed all the royal offspring.

2 L aakiinse 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.

But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king’s sons who were being put to death, and placed him and his nurse in the bedroom. So they hid him from Athaliah, and he was not put to death.

3 O o isna iyadii buu la joogay, oo wuxuu kula qarsoonaa gurigii Rabbiga intii lix sannadood ah; oo dalkiina waxaa u talisay Catalyaah.

So he was hidden with her in the house of the Lord six years, while Athaliah was reigning over the land.

4 O o 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.

Now in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and brought the captains of hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him in the house of the Lord. Then he made a covenant with them and put them under oath in the house of the Lord, and showed them the king’s son.

5 W uuna amray oo ku yidhi, Idinku sidan yeela: meeshiinna saddexaad ee sabtida gashaa waa inay guriga boqorka ilaaliyaan;

He commanded them, saying, “This is the thing that you shall do: one third of you, who come in on the sabbath and keep watch over the king’s house

6 o o 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.

(one third also shall be at the gate Sur, and one third at the gate behind the guards), shall keep watch over the house for defense.

7 O o labadiinna guuto oo ah kulli inta sabtida baxda oo dhanba waa inay guriga Rabbiga ilaaliyaan iyagoo boqorka ku wareegsan.

Two parts of you, even all who go out on the sabbath, shall also keep watch over the house of the Lord for the king.

8 O o 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.

Then you shall surround the king, each with his weapons in his hand; and whoever comes within the ranks shall be put to death. And be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in.”

9 O o 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.

So the captains of hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded. And each one of them took his men who were to come in on the sabbath, with those who were to go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.

10 M arkaasaa wadaadkii wuxuu boqol u taliyayaashii siiyey warmihii iyo gaashaammadii Boqor Daa'uud lahaa oo guriga Rabbiga yiil.

The priest gave to the captains of hundreds the spears and shields that had been King David’s, which were in the house of the Lord.

11 M arkaasay 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.

The guards stood each with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, by the altar and by the house, around the king.

12 M arkaasuu 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 the king’s son out and put the crown on him and gave him the testimony; and they made him king and anointed him, and they clapped their hands and said, “ Long live the king!”

13 O o Catalyaahna markay qayladii askarta iyo dadka maqashay ayay dadkii ugu timid gurigii Rabbiga.

When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people in the house of the Lord.

14 O o 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 looked and behold, the king was standing by the pillar, according to the custom, with the captains and the trumpeters beside the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “ Treason! Treason!”

15 M arkaasaa 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.

And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were appointed over the army and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks, and whoever follows her put to death with the sword.” For the priest said, “Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.”

16 S idaas daraaddeed iyadii meel bay u banneeyeen, markaasay tagtay marinkii ay farduhu gurigii boqorka u mari jireen, oo halkaasaa lagu dilay.

So they seized her, and when she arrived at the horses’ entrance of the king’s house, she was put to death there.

17 M arkaasaa 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 covenant between the Lord and the king and the people, that they would be the Lord’s people, also between the king and the people.

18 D abadeedna 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.

All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and tore it down; his altars and his images they broke in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the Lord.

19 O o 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.

He took the captains of hundreds and the Carites and the guards and all the people of the land; and they brought the king down from the house of the Lord, and came by the way of the gate of the guards to the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.

20 S idaas daraaddeed dadkii waddanka oo dhammu way wada reyreeyeen, oo magaaladiina way xasilloonayd, oo Catalyaahna gurigii boqorka agtiisa ayay seef ku dileen.

So all the people of the land rejoiced and the city was quiet. For they had put Athaliah to death with the sword at the king’s house.

21 O o Yehoo'aashna toddoba sannadood buu jiray markuu boqor noqday.

Jehoash was seven years old when he became king.
