KING JAMES BIBLESMITH VAN DYKE
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.1 كان يوآش ابن سبع سنين حين ملك وملك اربعين سنة في اورشليم واسم امه ظبية من بئر سبع.
2 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.2 وعمل يوآش المستقيم في عيني الرب كل ايام يهوياداع الكاهن.
3 And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.3 واتخذ يهوياداع له امرأتين فولد بنين وبنات
4 And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to repair the house of the LORD.4 وحدث بعد ذلك انه كان في قلب يوآش ان يجدد بيت الرب.
5 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.5 فجمع الكهنة واللاويون وقال لهم. اخرجوا الى مدن يهوذا واجمعوا من جميع اسرائيل فضة لاجل ترميم بيت الهكم من سنة الى سنة وبادروا انتم الى هذا الأمر. فلم يبادر اللاويون.
6 And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?6 فدعا الملك يهوياداع الراس وقال له لماذا لم تطلب من اللاويين ان ياتوا من يهوذا واورشليم بجزية موسى عبد الرب وجماعة اسرائيل لخيمة الشهادة.
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of God; and also all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD did they bestow upon Baalim.7 لان بني عثليا الخبيثة قد هدموا بيت الله وصيّروا كل اقداس بيت الرب للبعليم.
8 And at the king's commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD.8 وأمر الملك فعملوا صندوقا وجعلوه في باب بيت الرب خارجا
9 And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness.9 ونادوا في يهوذا واورشليم بان يأتوا الى الرب بجزية موسى عبد الرب المفروضة على اسرائيل في البرية.
10 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.10 ففرح كل الرؤساء وكل الشعب وادخلوا والقوا في الصندوق حتى امتلأ.
11 Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.11 وحينما كان يؤتى بالصندوق الى وكالة الملك ليد اللاويين عندما يرون ان الفضة قد كثرت كان ياتي كاتب الملك ووكيل الكاهن الراس ويفرغان الصندوق ثم يحملانه ويردانه الى مكانه هكذا كانوا يفعلون يوما فيوم حتى جمعوا فضة بكثرة.
12 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD.12 ودفعها الملك ويهوياداع لعاملي شغل خدمة بيت الرب وكانوا يستأجرون نحاتين ونجارين لتجديد بيت الرب وللعاملين في الحديد والنحاس ايضا لترميم بيت الرب.
13 So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of God in his state, and strengthened it.13 فعمل عاملوا الشغل ونجح العمل بايديهم واقاموا بيت الله على رسمه وثبتوه.
14 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels to minister, and to offer withal, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.14 ولما اكملوا أتوا الى ما بين يدي الملك ويهوياداع ببقية الفضة وعملوها آنية لبيت الرب آنية خدمة واصعاد وصحونا وآنية ذهب وفضة. وكانوا يصعدون محرقات في بيت الرب دائما كل ايام يهوياداع
15 But Jehoiada waxed old, and was full of days when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.15 وشاخ يهوياداع وشبع من الايام ومات. كان ابن مئة وثلاثين سنة عند وفاته.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward his house.16 فدفنوه في مدينة داود مع الملوك لانه عمل خيرا في اسرائيل ومع الله وبيته.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.17 وبعد موت يهوياداع جاء رؤساء يهوذا وسجدوا للملك. حينئذ سمع الملك لهم
18 And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.18 وتركوا بيت الرب اله آبائهم وعبدوا السواري والاصنام فكان غضب على يهوذا واورشليم لاجل اثمهم هذا.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.19 وارسل اليهم انبياء لارجاعهم الى الرب واشهدوا عليهم فلم يصغوا.
20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which 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.20 ولبس روح الله زكريا بن يهوياداع الكاهن فوقف فوق الشعب وقال لهم هكذا يقول الله لماذا تتعدون وصايا الرب فلا تفلحون. لانكم تركتم الرب قد ترككم.
21 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.21 ففتنوا عليه ورجموه بحجارة بامر الملك في دار بيت الرب.
22 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.22 ولم يذكر يواش الملك المعروف الذي عمله يهوياداع ابوه معه بل قتل ابنه. وعند موته قال الرب ينظر ويطالب
23 And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria 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.23 وفي مدار السنة صعد عليه جيش ارام واتوا الى يهوذا واورشليم واهلكوا كل رؤساء الشعب من الشعب وجميع غنيمتهم ارسلوها الى ملك دمشق.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the LORD delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.24 لان جيش ارام جاء بشرذمة قليلة ودفع الرب ليدهم جيشا كثيرا جدا لانهم تركوا الرب اله آبائهم. فاجروا قضاء على يواش.
25 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.25 وعند ذهابهم عنه. لانهم تركوه بامراض كثيرة. فتن عليه عبيده من اجل دماء بني يهوياداع الكاهن وقتلوه على سريره فمات فدفنوه في مدينة داود ولم يدفنوه في قبور الملوك.
26 And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.26 وهذان هما الفاتنان عليه زاباد ابن شمعة العمونية ويهوزاباد ابن شمريت الموآبية.
27 Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.27 واما بنوه وكثرة ما حمل عليه ومرمّة بيت الله ها هي مكتوبة في مدرس سفر الملوك. وملك امصيا ابنه عوضا عنه
