NEW AMERICAN BIBLESMITH VAN DYKE
1 When Athaliah, the mother of Ahaziah, saw that her son was dead, she began to kill off the whole royal family.1 فلما رأت عثليا ام اخزيا ان ابنها قد مات قامت فابادت جميع النسل الملكي.
2 But Jehosheba, daughter of King Jehoram and sister of Ahaziah, took Joash, his son, and spirited him away, along with his nurse, from the bedroom where the princes were about to be slain. She concealed him from Athaliah, and so he did not die.2 فاخذت يهوشبع بنت الملك يورام اخت اخزيا يوآش بن اخزيا وسرقته من وسط بني الملك الذين قتلوا هو ومرضعته من مخدع السرير وخبأوه من وجه عثليا فلم يقتل.
3 For six years he remained hidden in the temple of the LORD, while Athaliah ruled the land.3 وكان معها في بيت الرب مختبأ ست سنين. وعثليا مالكة على الارض.
4 But in the seventh year, Jehoiada summoned the captains of the Carians and of the guards. He had them come to him in the temple of the LORD, exacted from them a sworn commitment, and then showed them the king's son.4 وفي السنة السابعة ارسل يهوياداع فاخذ رؤساء مئات الجلادين والسعاة وادخلهم اليه الى بيت الرب وقطع معهم عهدا واستحلفهم في بيت الرب واراهم ابن الملك.
5 He gave them these orders: "This is what you must do: the third of you who come on duty on the sabbath shall guard the king's palace;5 وأمرهم قائلا هذا ما تفعلونه. الثلث منكم الذين يدخلون في السبت يحرسون حراسة بيت الملك.
6 another third shall be at the gate Sur; and the last third shall be at the gate behind the guards.6 والثلث على باب سور والثلث على الباب وراء السعاة فتحرسون حراسة البيت للصدّ.
7 The two of your divisions who are going off duty that week shall keep guard over the temple of the LORD for the king.7 والفرقتان منكم جميع الخارجين في السبت يحرسون حراسة بيت الرب حول الملك.
8 You shall surround the king, each with drawn weapons, and if anyone tries to approach the cordon, kill him; stay with the king, whatever he may do."8 وتحيطون بالملك حواليه كل واحد سلاحه بيده ومن دخل الصفوف يقتل. وكونوا مع الملك في خروجه ودخوله.
9 The captains did just as Jehoiada the priest commanded. Each one with his men, both those going on duty for the sabbath and those going off duty that week, came to Jehoiada the priest.9 ففعل رؤساء المئات حسب كل ما امر به يهوياداع الكاهن واخذوا كل واحد رجاله الداخلين في السبت مع الخارجين في السبت وجاءوا الى يهوياداع الكاهن.
10 He gave the captains King David's spears and shields, which were in the temple of the LORD.10 فاعطى الكاهن لرؤساء المئات الحراب والاتراس التي للملك داود التي في بيت الرب.
11 And the guards, with drawn weapons, lined up from the southern to the northern limit of the enclosure, surrounding the altar and the temple on the king's behalf.11 ووقف السعاة كل واحد سلاحه بيده من جانب البيت الايمن الى جانب البيت الايسر حول المذبح والبيت حول الملك مستديرين.
12 Then Jehoiada led out the king's son and put the crown and the insignia upon him. They proclaimed him king and anointed him, clapping their hands and shouting, "Long live the king!"12 واخرج ابن الملك ووضع عليه التاج واعطاه الشهادة فملكوه ومسحوه وصفقوا وقالوا ليحي الملك
13 Athaliah heard the noise made by the people, and appeared before them in the temple of the LORD.13 ولما سمعت عثليا صوت السعاة والشعب دخلت الى الشعب الى بيت الرب
14 When she saw the king standing by the pillar, as was the custom, and the captains and trumpeters near him, with all the people of the land rejoicing and blowing trumpets, she tore her garments and cried out, "Treason, treason!"14 ونظرت واذا الملك واقف على المنبر حسب العادة والرؤساء ونافخوا الابواق بجانب الملك وكل شعب الارض يفرحون ويضربون بالابواق. فشقت عثليا ثيابها وصرخت خيانة خيانة.
15 Then Jehoiada the priest instructed the captains in command of the force: "Bring her outside through the ranks. If anyone follows her," he added, "let him die by the sword." He had given orders that she should not be slain in the temple of the LORD.15 فأمر يهوياداع الكاهن رؤساء المئات قواد الجيش وقال لهم اخرجوها الى خارج الصفوف والذي يتبعها اقتلوه بالسيف. لان الكاهن قال لا تقتل في بيت الرب.
16 She was led out forcibly to the horse gate of the royal palace, where she was put to death.16 فالقوا عليها الايادي ومضت في طريق مدخل الخيل الى بيت الملك وقتلت هناك
17 Then Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD as one party and the king and the people as the other, by which they would be the LORD'S people; and another covenant, between the king and the people.17 وقطع يهوياداع عهدا بين الرب وبين الملك والشعب ليكونوا شعبا للرب وبين الملك والشعب.
18 Thereupon all the people of the land went to the temple of Baal and demolished it. They shattered its altars and images completely, and slew Mattan, the priest of Baal, before the altars. After appointing a detachment for the temple of the LORD, Jehoiada18 ودخل جميع شعب الارض الى بيت البعل وهدموا مذابحه وكسروا تماثيله تماما وقتلوا متّان كاهن البعل امام المذبح. وجعل الكاهن نظّارا على بيت الرب.
19 with the captains, the Carians, the guards, and all the people of the land, led the king down from the temple of the LORD through the guards' gate to the palace, where Joash took his seat on the royal throne.19 واخذ رؤساء المئات والجلادين والسعاة وكل شعب الارض فانزلوا الملك من بيت الرب وأتوا في طريق باب السعاة الى بيت الملك فجلس على كرسي الملوك.
20 All the people of the land rejoiced and the city was quiet, now that Athaliah had been slain with the sword at the royal palace.20 وفرح جميع شعب الارض واستراحت المدينة وقتلوا عثليا بالسيف عند بيت الملك.
21 كان يهواش ابن سبع سنين حين ملك
