2 Tuʻi 11

1Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal family.
1PEA ʻi heʻene sio ʻe ʻAtalia ko e faʻē ʻa ʻAhasia kuo mate ʻa ʻene tama, naʻa ne tuʻu hake mo ne fakaʻauha ʻae hako kotoa ʻoe hau.
2But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the king’s sons who were being put to death, and she put him and his nurse in a bedroom. Thus they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not put to death.
2Ka ko Sihosipa ko e ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ko Solami, ko e tuofefine ʻo ʻAhasia, naʻe ʻave ʻa Soasa ko e foha ʻo ʻAhasia, mo ne ʻave fufū ia mei he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi; pea naʻa nau fufū ia meia ʻAtalia, ʻio, ʻaia mo ʻene fefine tauhi, ʻi he fale mohe, pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ai ia.
3And he remained with her six years, hidden in the house of the LORD, while Athaliah reigned over the land.
3Pea naʻe fufū ʻakinaua ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono. Pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻAtalia ki he fonua.
4But in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and brought the captains of the Carites and of the guards, and had them come to him in the house of the LORD. And he made a covenant with them and put them under oath in the house of the LORD, and he showed them the king’s son.
4Pea ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata mo ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he taki toko teau, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau mo e kau leʻo, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu kiate ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa ne fai fuakava mo kinautolu, pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻenau lea fuakava ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, mo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae foha ʻoe tuʻi.
5And he commanded them, “This is the thing that you shall do: one third of you, those who come off duty on the Sabbath and guard the king’s house
5Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa te mou fai; ʻe vahe tolu ʻakimoutolu ʻoku ange ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pea ko homou vahe ʻe taha ʻe tauhi mo leʻohi ʻae fale ʻoe tuʻi;
6(another third being at the gate Sur and a third at the gate behind the guards) shall guard the palace.
6Pea ko homou vahe ʻe taha ʻe ʻi he matapā ʻo Suli; pea ko e vahe ʻe taha ʻi he matapā ki mui ʻi he kau leʻo: ʻe pehē pe ʻa hoʻomou leʻohi ʻae fale ke ʻoua naʻa maumauʻi ia.
7And the two divisions of you, which come on duty in force on the Sabbath and guard the house of the LORD on behalf of the king,
7Pea ko hono vahe ua ʻokimoutolu kotoa ʻoku ʻalu kituʻa ʻi he ʻaho tapu, ʻe ʻanautolu ʻae tauhi mo e leʻohi ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi.
8shall surround the king, each with his weapons in his hand. And whoever approaches the ranks is to be put to death. Be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in.”
8Pea te mou nofo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi, pea toʻo ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa hono mahafu ʻi hono nima: pea ʻilonga ha taha ʻe Lakaatu ki loto, tuku ke tāmateʻi ia: pea te mou ʻi he tuʻi ʻi heʻene ʻalu kituʻa mo ʻene mai.”
9The captains did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they each brought his men who were to go off duty on the Sabbath, with those who were to come on duty on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
9Paʻa naʻe fai ʻe he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻa nau ʻave taki taha ʻa ʻene kau tangata ʻaia naʻe vahe ke mai ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pea mo kinautolu naʻe vahe ke ʻalu kituʻa ʻi he ʻaho tapu, ʻonau omi kia Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki.
10And the priest gave to the captains the spears and shields that had been King David’s, which were in the house of the LORD.
10Pea naʻe foaki ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ʻae ngaahi tao mo e ngaahi ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi, ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
11And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and the house on behalf of the king.
11Pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻae kau leʻo, ko e tangata taki taha mo ʻene mahafu ʻi hono nima, ʻo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi, mei he tuliki fakatoʻomataʻu ʻoe faletapu ʻo fai hake ki he tuliki fakatoʻohema ʻoe faletapu, ʻo vāofi mo e feilaulauʻanga pea mo e faletapu.
12Then he brought out the king’s son and put the crown on him and gave him the testimony. And they proclaimed him king and anointed him, and they clapped their hands and said, “Long live the king!”
12Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻae foha ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻai ʻae tatā fakatuʻi kiate ia, mo ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae tohi ʻoe fono; pea naʻa nau fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi, mo nau pani ia ʻaki ʻae lolo; pea naʻa nau pasi nima, ʻonau pehē, “Ke moʻui pe ʻae tuʻi.”
13When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she went into the house of the LORD to the people.
13Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe ʻAtalia ki he longoaʻa ʻoe kau leʻo pea mo e kakai, naʻa ne haʻu ki he kakai ʻi he loto faletapu ʻo Sihova.
14And when she looked, there was the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing and blowing trumpets. And Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “Treason! Treason!”
14Pea ʻi heʻene sio, vakai, naʻe tuʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻi he veʻepou, ʻo hangē ko hono anga, pea tutuʻu fakataha mo e tuʻi ʻae houʻeiki pea mo e kau tangata ifi meʻalea, pea naʻe fiefia ʻae kakai kotoa ʻoe fonua, pea naʻa nau ifi ʻae ngaahi meʻalea: pea naʻe haehae ʻe ʻAtalia ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne kalanga, “Ko e lapa, ko e lapa.”
15Then Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains who were set over the army, “Bring her out between the ranks, and put to death with the sword anyone who follows her.” For the priest said, “Let her not be put to death in the house of the LORD.”
15Ka naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki ki he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ko e houʻeiki ki he kautau, mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻave ia kituaʻā: pea ko ia ʻoku muimui ʻiate ia tuku ke tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻae heletā.” He kuo pehē ʻe he taulaʻeiki, “Ke ʻoua naʻa tāmateʻi ia ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.”
16So they laid hands on her; and she went through the horses’ entrance to the king’s house, and there she was put to death.
16Pea naʻa nau puke nima ia; pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ko ia naʻe faʻa ai ʻae fanga hoosi ki he nofoʻanga ʻoe tuʻi: pea naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻi ai.
17And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and people, that they should be the LORD’s people, and also between the king and the people.
17Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sihoiata ha fuakava ʻia Sihova pea mo e tuʻi pea mo e kakai, ke nau hoko ko e kakai ʻa Sihova ʻakinautolu; pea ʻi he tuʻi foki mo e kakai.
18Then 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, and they killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest posted watchmen over the house of the LORD.
18Pea naʻe atu ʻae kakai kotoa ʻoe fonua ki he fale ʻo Peali, pea naʻa nau maumau hifo ia; ʻa hono ngaahi feilaulauʻanga pea mo hono ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻa nau laiki ke ʻosi, pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Matani ko e taulaʻeiki ʻa Peali ʻi he muʻa feilaulauʻanga. Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae kau matāpule ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
19And he took the captains, the Carites, the guards, and all the people of the land, and they brought the king down from the house of the LORD, marching through the gate of the guards to the king’s house. And he took his seat on the throne of the kings.
19Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo e kau leʻo, pea mo e kakai kotoa ʻoe fonua; pea naʻa nau ʻohifo ʻae tuʻi mei he fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻi he hala mo e matapā ʻoe kau leʻo. Pea naʻa ne nofo ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi.
20So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet after Athaliah had been put to death with the sword at the king’s house.
20Pea naʻe fakafiefia ʻae kakai kotoa ʻoe fonua, pea naʻe nofo lelei pe ʻae kolo: pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻa ʻAtalia ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻo ofi ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi.
21Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
21Pea naʻe fitu taʻu ʻe motuʻa ʻo Soasa ʻi heʻene kamata pule ʻaʻana.
