¹And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him.

¹Ale v siedmom roku sa zmocnil Jehojada a pojal so sebou veliteľov nad stami, Azariáša, syna Jerochámovho, Izmaela, syna Jehochanánovho, Azariáša, syna Obédovho, Maaseiáša, syna Adaiášovho, a Elišafata, syna Zichriho, a učinil s nimi smluvu.

²And they went about in Judah, and gathered the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the chief of the fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.

²A pochodiac dookola po Judsku shromaždili Levitov zo všetkých miest Júdových ako i hlavy otcov čeľadí Izraelových, a prišli do Jeruzalema.

³And all the congregation made a covenant with the king in the house of God. And he said unto them, Behold, the king's son shall reign, as the LORD hath said of the sons of David.

³A celé to shromaždenie učinilo smluvu v dome Božom s kráľom. A Jehojada im riekol: Hľa, syn kráľov bude kraľovať, ako hovoril Hospodin o synoch Dávidových.

⁴This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you entering on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be porters of the doors;

⁴Toto je vec, ktorú učiníte: tretina z vás, ktorí prichádzavate v sobotu, tretina kňazov a Levitov, budú vrátnymi strážiac u prahov;

⁵And a third part shall be at the king's house; and a third part at the gate of the foundation: and all the people shall be in the courts of the house of the LORD.

⁵tretina bude pri dome kráľovom a tretina pri bráne Základu, a všetok ľud bude vo dvoroch domu Hospodinovho.

⁶But let none come into the house of the LORD, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall go in, for they are holy: but all the people shall keep the watch of the LORD.

⁶Ale nech nikto nevojde do domu Hospodinovho krome kňazov a tých, ktorí posluhujú, z Levitov; tí nech vojdú, lebo sú svätí, ale všetok ľud bude strážiť stráž Hospodinovu.

⁷And the Levites shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and whosoever else cometh into the house, he shall be put to death: but be ye with the king when he cometh in, and when he goeth out.

⁷A Levitovia obstúpia kráľa dookola majúc každý svoju zbraň vo svojej ruke, a ten, kto by vošiel do domu, zomrie. A budú vždy s kráľom, už či vojde či vyjde.

⁸So the Levites and all Judah did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest had commanded, and took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go out on the sabbath: for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.

⁸A Leviti a všetok Júda urobili všetko tak, ako rozkázal kňaz Jehojada, a pojali každý svojich mužov, ktorí prichádzavali v sobotu, i s tými, ktorí odchádzavali v sobotu, lebo kňaz Jehojada nebol prepustil niktorého z oddelení.

⁹Moreover Jehoiada the priest delivered to the captains of hundreds spears, and bucklers, and shields, that had been king David's, which were in the house of God.

⁹A Jehojada, kňaz, dal veliteľom nad stami kopije a malé štíty jako aj iné štíty, ktoré patrily kedysi kráľovi Dávidovi a ktoré boly v dome Božom.

¹⁰And he set all the people, every man having his weapon in his hand, from the right side of the temple to the left side of the temple, along by the altar and the temple, by the king round about.

¹⁰A tak postavil všetok ľud, z ktorých mal každý svoju zbraň vo svojej ruke, od pravej strany domu až po ľavú stranu domu, pozdĺž oproti oltáru a oproti domu, pri kráľovi dookola.

¹¹Then they brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown, and gave him the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, God save the king.

¹¹Potom vyviedli von syna kráľovho a dali na neho korunu i svedoctvo a urobili ho kráľom, a pomazali ho Jehojada a jeho synovia, a hovorili: Nech žije kráľ!

¹²Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people into the house of the LORD:

¹²A keď počula Atália hukot bežiaceho ľudu, a tých, ktorí chválili kráľa, vošla k ľudu do domu Hospodinovho.

¹³And she looked, and, behold, the king stood at his pillar at the entering in, and the princes and the trumpets by the king: and all the people of the land rejoiced, and sounded with trumpets, also the singers with instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and said, Treason, Treason.

¹³A vidiac, že hľa, kráľ stojí na svojom vyvýšenom mieste pri vchode, a že velitelia a trubači stoja pri kráľovi, a že všetok ľud zeme sa raduje, a že trúbia na trúby, a že speváci spievajú pri nástrojoch ku sprievodu spevu a učia, ako chváliť, vtedy roztrhla Atália svoje rúcho a riekla: Zrada, zrada!

¹⁴Then Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds that were set over the host, and said unto them, Have her forth of the ranges: and whoso followeth her, let him be slain with the sword. For the priest said, Slay her not in the house of the LORD.

¹⁴Vtedy vyviedol kňaz Jehojada veliteľov nad stami, ustanovených nad vojskom, a riekol im: Vyveďte ju preč zpomedzi radov, a ten, kto by išiel za ňou, nech zomrie mečom! Pretože bol riekol kňaz: Nezabite jej v dome Hospodinovom.

¹⁵So they laid hands on her; and when she was come to the entering of the horse gate by the king's house, they slew her there.

¹⁵A rozostúpili sa jej na obe strany. Ale keď prišla ku vchodu do Koňskej brány domu kráľovho, tam ju zabili.

¹⁶And Jehoiada made a covenant between him, and between all the people, and between the king, that they should be the LORD's people.

¹⁶Vtedy učinil Jehojada smluvu medzi sebou, medzi všetkým ľudom a medzi kráľom, aby boli ľudom Hospodinovým.

¹⁷Then all the people went to the house of Baal, and brake it down, and brake his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.

¹⁷Potom vošiel všetok ľud do domu Bálovho, a rozborili ho a jeho oltáre i jeho obrazy roztrieskali a Mattána, kňaza Bálovho, zabili pred oltármi.

¹⁸Also Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of the LORD by the hand of the priests the Levites, whom David had distributed in the house of the LORD, to offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was ordained by David.

¹⁸A Jehojada zase ustanovil úrady, ktoré maly dozor v dome Hospodinovom, pod správou kňazov Levitov, ktorých bol rozdelil Dávid ustanoviac ich nad domom Hospodinovým, aby obetovali zápalné obeti Hospodinove, jako je napísané v zákone Mojžišovom, s radosťou a so spevom, podľa nariadenia Dávidovho.

¹⁹And he set the porters at the gates of the house of the LORD, that none which was unclean in any thing should enter in.

¹⁹Postavil aj vrátnych pri bránach domu Hospodinovho, aby nevošiel nečistý čo do jakejkoľvek veci.

²⁰And he took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of the LORD: and they came through the high gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.

²⁰A pojal veliteľov nad stami a popredných v národe jako aj tých, ktorí panovali nad ľudom, i všetok ľud zeme a viedol kráľa z domu Hospodinovho dolu, a vošli vyšnou bránou do domu kráľovho, kde posadili kráľa na tróne kráľovstva.

²¹And all the people of the land rejoiced: and the city was quiet, after that they had slain Athaliah with the sword.

²¹A radoval sa všetok ľud zeme, a meste bolo v pokoji. A Atáliu zabili mečom.
