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

When Ahaziah’s mother Athaliah saw that her son was dead, she got up and killed all the king’s children.

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 King Joram’s daughter Jehosheba, Ahaziah’s sister, took Joash the son of Ahaziah. She stole him away from the king’s sons who were being killed, and put him and his nurse in the bedroom. They hid him from Athaliah, and he was not killed.

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

Joash was hid with his nurse in the house of the Lord six years, while Athaliah was ruling 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.

In the seventh year, Jehoiada sent for the captains of hundreds, men who watch over the king and the soldiers. He brought them into the house of the Lord, and made an agreement with them. He had them make a promise in the house of the Lord. Then he 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 told them, “This is what you must do. One third of you who come in on the Day of Rest must 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 are to be at the gate Sur and one third at the gate behind the soldiers. So you will keep watch over the king’s house.

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

And two parts of all of you who go out on the Day of Rest must 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.

You will stand around the king, with spears in your hands. Whoever comes near must be killed. 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.

The captains of hundreds did all that Jehoiada the religious leader told them to do. Each one of them brought his men to Jehoiada the religious leader. Each one brought those who were to come in on the Day of Rest, and those who were to go out on the Day of Rest.

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

The religious leader gave the captains the spears and coverings 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.

And the soldiers stood from the right side of the house to the left side of the house. Each one held his spear. They stood 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 Jehoiada brought out the king’s son and put the crown on him, and gave him the Law. They made him king and poured oil on him. Then 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 soldiers and 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 saw the king standing by the pillar, as was done in those days. The captains and those who blew horns were standing beside the king. And all the people of the land were filled with joy and blew horns. Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “They are turning against the queen!”

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.

Then Jehoiada the religious leader told the captains of the army, “Bring her out among the soldiers, and kill with the sword whoever follows her.” For the religious leader said, “Do not let her 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 took hold of her, and she was put to death at the horses’ gate of the king’s house.

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 an agreement between the Lord and the king and the people, that they should be the Lord’s people. And he made an agreement 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.

Then all the people of the land went to the house of Baal and tore it down. They broke to pieces all his altars and objects. And they killed Mattan the religious leader of Baal in front of the altars. Then the religious leaders chose men to watch 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.

Jehoiada took the captains and the men who watch over the king, and the soldiers and all the people of the land. They brought the king down from the house of the Lord, by the way of the soldiers’ gate, 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 were filled with joy, 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.

Joash was seven years old when he became king.
