¹And in the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of the 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.

¹ Jiiri iyyanta ra Yehoyda na nga boŋ gaabandi ka sappe te da zangu-zangu jine borey. Ngey neeya: Azariya Yeroham izo, da Isumeyla Yehohanan izo, da Azariya Obed izo, da Maaseya Adaya izo, da Elisafat Zikri izo.

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

² I soobay ka gana Yahuda laabo kulu ra ka Lawi borey margu Yahuda galley kulu ra, da Israyla kaayey windi arkusey. I kaa Urusalima.

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

³ Jama kulu binde na sappe te da bonkoono noodin Irikoy windo ra. Yehoyda ne i se: «Wa guna, bonkoono ize neeya. A ga mayray te sanda mate kaŋ cine Rabbi ci Dawda izey boŋ.

⁴This is the thing which ye shall do: a third part of you that come in on the sabbath, of the priests and of the Levites, shall be keepers of the doors;

⁴ Haŋ kaŋ araŋ ga te neeya: araŋ boro jare hinzanta kaŋ yaŋ ga furo asibti hane, alfagey da Lawi borey ra, i ma ciya windi me batukoyaŋ.

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 Jehovah.

⁵ Jare fo ma kay bonkoono windo do haray, jare fo mo Ganda Tiksa meyo do haray. Jama kulu mo ma kay Rabbi windo batama ra.

⁶But let none come into the house of Jehovah except the priests and those of the Levites that do the service; they shall go in, for they are holy; but all the people shall keep the watch of Jehovah.

⁶ Amma araŋ ma si naŋ boro kulu ma furo Rabbi fuwo ra, kala alfagey hinne, da Lawi borey mo kaŋ yaŋ ga goy. Ngey no ga furo, zama ngey wo hananteyaŋ no. Amma borey kulu kaŋ cindi ga batu no Rabbi sanno boŋ.

⁷And the Levites shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that comes into the house shall be put to death; and ye shall be with the king when he comes in and when he goes out.

⁷ Lawi borey mo ga bonkoono windi, boro kulu nda nga wongu jinay nga kambe ra. Boro kulu kaŋ furo fuwo ra, kala i m'a wi. Amma araŋ wo araŋ ma goro bonkoono banda waati kaŋ a ga furo nda waati kaŋ a ga fatta.»

⁸And the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go forth on the sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest did not liberate the divisions.

⁸ Lawi borey da Yahuda borey kulu binde goy da mate kaŋ cine Alfa Yehoyda lordi kulu. Boro kulu na nga borey margu, sanda borey kaŋ yaŋ ga furo asibti hane, da borey kaŋ yaŋ ga zumbu asibti hane, zama Yehoyda mana satey sallama jina.

⁹And Jehoiada the priest gave to the captains of the hundreds king David's spears and shields and targets, which were in the house of God.

⁹ Bonkoono Dawda yaajey da koray kayney da koray beerey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go Irikoy windo ra, Alfa Yehoyda n'i no zangu-zangu jine borey se.

¹⁰And he set all the people, every man with his javelin in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, toward the altar and the house, by the king round about.

¹⁰ A naŋ jama kulu ma bonkoono windi k'a daŋ game, boro kulu nda nga wongu jinay nga kambe ra, za windo kambe ŋwaaro gaa kal a ma koy windo kambe wow gaa, da sargay feema da windo meyo gaa.

¹¹And they brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony, and made him king. And Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, Long live the king!

¹¹ Waato din gaa no i fatta nda bonkoono izo. I na koytaray fuula daŋ a gaa k'a no seeda, _kaŋ ga ti Tawretu tira,|_ k'a ciya bonkooni. Yehoyda nda ngey izey na ji soogu a boŋo boŋ ka ne: «Bonkoono aloomaro ma candi!»

¹²And Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, and she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.

¹² Waato kaŋ Ataliya maa jama kosongo, i goono ga zuru ga bonkoono zamu, kal a kaa borey do Rabbi windo ra.

¹³And she looked, and behold, the king stood on his dais at the entrance, and the princes and the trumpets were by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets; and the singers [were there] with the instruments of music, and such as taught to sing praise. And Athaliah rent her garments, and said, Conspiracy! Conspiracy!

¹³ A guna, kal a di bonkoono go ga kay nga cinari kuuko do haray, furoyaŋo do. Jine borey da hilli karkoy go bonkoono jarga, laabo borey kulu mo go ga farhã. I go ga hilley kar, doonkoy mo go ga kar da ngey jinayey, i goono ga sifa dooni te. Saaya din Ataliya na nga bankaarayey tooru-tooru ka ne: «Amaana ŋwaari! Amaana ŋwaari!»

¹⁴And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of the hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Lead her forth without the ranks; and whosoever follows her, let him be slain with the sword; for the priest said, Ye shall not put her to death in the house of Jehovah.

¹⁴ Yehoyda binde na zangu-zangu jine borey fattandi, ngey kaŋ yaŋ i daŋ wongu boŋ ka ne i se: «Wa waybora kaa taray soojey sasara ra. Boro kulu kaŋ n'a gana mo, i m'a koy wi da takuba!» (Zama alfaga ne i ma s'a wi Rabbi windo ra.)

¹⁵And they made way for her, and she went through the entrance of the horse-gate into the king's house, and they put her to death there.

¹⁵ Woodin se no i n'a di. Waato kaŋ a to Bariyey Furoyaŋo Meyo do, kaŋ go bonkoono kwaara haray, noodin no i n'a wi.

¹⁶And Jehoiada made a covenant between himself and all the people and the king, that they should be the people of Jehovah.

¹⁶ Yehoyda binde na sappa te nga bumbo da jama kulu nda bonkoono game ra, hal i ma ciya Rabbi wane jama.

¹⁷And all the people went into the house of Baal, and broke it down; and they broke his altars and his images in pieces, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.

¹⁷ Jama kulu binde koy Baal* diina windo do k'a zeeri. I n'a feemey d'a toorey bagu-bagu. I na Baal alfaga Mattan wi mo feemey jine.

¹⁸And Jehoiada appointed the offices of the house of Jehovah under the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had set by classes over the house of Jehovah to offer up Jehovah's burnt-offerings, as it is written in the law of Moses, -- with rejoicing and with singing according to the directions of David.

¹⁸ Yehoyda na Rabbi windo goyey kulu dumi-dumi daŋ alfagey kaŋ ti Lawi borey kambe ra, ngey kaŋ yaŋ Dawda fay-fay Rabbi windo ra. I goyo ga ti i ma Rabbi wane sargayey kaŋ i ga ton salle, sanda mate kaŋ cine i hantum Musa asariya tira ra. I m'a te da farhã da baytu teeyaŋ care banda, Dawda lordo boŋ.

¹⁹And he set the doorkeepers at the gates of the house of Jehovah, that no one unclean in anything should enter in.

¹⁹ A na batukoyaŋ daŋ Rabbi windo meyey gaa, zama borey kaŋ yaŋ sinda hananyaŋ hay kulu gaa, i ma si furo windo ra.

²⁰And he took the captains of the 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 Jehovah; and they came through the upper gate into the king's house, and set the king upon the throne of the kingdom.

²⁰ Zangu-zangu jine borey, da boro beerey, da jama maykoy, da laabo jama kulu, a n'i sambu ka bonkoono zumandi a ma fun Rabbi windo ra. I gana meyo kaŋ go beene din gaa kala bonkoono kwaara. I na bonkoono dake koytaray karga boŋ.

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

²¹ Laabo jama kulu binde farhã, gallo mo du laakal kanay zama i na Ataliya wi da takuba.
