1अतल्याह अहज्याहकी आमा थिइन। उनले देखिन, उनको छोरा मर्यो। तब उनी उठिन अनि सबै राजाको परिवारलाई मारिन्।
1Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2यहोशेबा राजा योरामकी छोरी र अहज्याहकी बहिनी थिइ। योआश राजाका छोराहरू मध्ये एक जना थिए। यहोशेबाले योआशलाई आफूसंग लिएर गयो जब सबै अरू नानीहरू मरिसकेका थिए। योहोशापातले योआश र उसको धाईलाई एउटा सुत्ने कोठामा लुकाइन ताकि अतल्याले तिनीहरूलाई नभेटाउन। यसरी योआश मारिएन।
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 slain, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bedroom; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain;
3तब योआश र यहोशेबा परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा लुके। योआश त्यहाँ छ वर्ष लुके। अनि अतल्याहले यहूदा भूमिमा शासन गरिन्।
3He was with her hidden in the house of Yahweh six years. Athaliah reigned over the land.
4सातौं वर्षमा प्रमुख पूजाहारी यहोयादाले खबर पठाए र करीतो र रक्षकहरूका सेनापतिहरू आए। यहोयादाले तिनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा ल्याए। तब यहोयादाले तिनीहरूसँग एउटा सम्झौता गरे। मन्दिरमा यहोयादाले तिनीहरूलाई शपथ खान वाध्य गराए। तब उनले तिनीहरूलाई राजाको छोरा (योआश) देखाए।
4In the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains over hundreds of the Carites and of the guard, and brought them to him into the house of Yahweh; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of Yahweh, and showed them the king’s son.
5तब यहोयादाले तिनीहरूलाई एउटा आदेश पठाए। उसले भने तिमीहरूले यो काम अवश्यै गर्नु पर्छ, “तिमीहरूमध्येको एक तिहाइ यो हप्ता काममा अवश्यै राजमहलको रक्षा गर्नलाई बस्नुपर्छ।
5He commanded them, saying, “This is the thing that you shall do: a third part of you, who come in on the Sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;
6तिमीहरूमध्ये अर्को एक तिहाइ शूरद्वारमा हुनेछन्। र अर्को एक तिहाइ रक्षकहरू पछिको द्वारको पछाडी हुनेछ। यसप्रकार तिमीहरूले घरको चारैतिर सुरक्षा प्रदान गर्नेछौ।
6A third part shall be at the gate Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard. So you shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7दुई दल जो त्यस हप्तामा विश्राममा छन् तिनीहरूले मन्दिरको सुरक्षा र राजा यहो यहोशेबाको रक्षा गर्नुपर्छ।
7The two companies of you, even all who go out on the Sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of Yahweh around the king.
8तिमी अवश्य नै सब समय राजासँग बस्नु ऊ कुनै ठाउँ जाँदा पनि। सबै समूहहरूले राजालाई घेरेर राख्नु पर्छ। प्रत्येक रक्षकले आफ्नो हातमा आफ्नो हतियार राख्नु पर्छ। अनि तिमीले त्यो मानिसलाई मार्नु पर्छ जो तिम्रो साह्रै नजिक आउँछ।”
8You shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he who comes within the ranks, let him be slain. Be with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in.”
9सेनापतिले सबै आदेशको पालन गरे जो येहोयादा पूजाहारीले आदेश गरेका थिए। प्रत्येक सेनापतिले आफ्ना मानिसहरू लिए। तिनीहरू सबै आए, जो त्यस हप्ता काममा थियो वा काममा थिएन। सबै मानिसहरू पूजाहारी योहोयदा कहाँ गए।
9The captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those who were to come in on the Sabbath, with those who were to go out on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10अनि पूजाहारीले सेनापतिहरूलाई भाला र ढाल दिए। ती भाला र ढालहरू दाऊदले परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखेका थिए।
10The priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been king David’s, which were in the house of Yahweh.
11ती रक्षकहरू मन्दिरको दाहिने कुनादेखि देब्रे कुनासम्म आफ्ना हातहरूमा हतियार लिएर उभिएका थिए। तिनीहरू वेदी अनि राजाको वरिपरि उभिए। जब उनी मन्दिरमा गए।
11The guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, along by the altar and the house, around the king.
12ती मानिसहरूले योआशलाई बाहिर निकाले। तिनीहरूले योआशलाई राजमुकुट पहिराए अनि राजा र परमप्रभुबीच हुने करार गराए। त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले उनलाई अभिषेक गरे अनि नयाँ राजा बनाए। तिनीहरूले थप्पडी बजाए अनि घोषणा गरे, “राजा दीर्घायु होऊन।”
12Then he brought out the king’s son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, “Long live the king!”
13रानी अतल्याहले रक्षकहरू र मानिसहरूको ध्वनी सुनिन्, यसकारण उनी परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा मानिसहरूसमक्ष गइन।
13When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the house of Yahweh:
14अतल्याहले खाँबोको छेउमा राजालाई देखिन जहाँ साधारण मानिसहरु उभिने गर्दथे। उनले अगुवाहरू र मानिसहरूलाई पनि देखिन् जो राजाका लागि तुरही फुक्दै थिए। उनले देखिन्, सबै मानिसहरू औधी खुशी थिए। उनले तुरहीको ध्वनि सुनिन् अनि आफूलाई खिन्न बनाउन उनले आफ्नो लुगा च्यातिन्। तब अतल्याह चिच्याइन, “राजद्रोह! राजद्रोह!”
14and she looked, and behold, the king stood by the pillar, as the tradition was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes, and cried, “Treason! Treason!”
15यहोयादा पूजाहारीले सेनापतिहरूलाई आदेश दिए, तिनीहरू सैनिकका अधिकारी हुन। यहोयादाले उनीहरूलाई भने, “अतल्याहलाई मन्दिरको इलाकाबाट बाहिर लैजाउ। उनका सबै अनुयाईहरूलाई मार। तर परमप्रभुको मन्दिरभित्र तिनीहरूलाई नमार।”
15Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks. Kill him who follows her with the sword.” For the priest said, “Don’t let her be slain in the house of Yahweh.”
16यसकारण सैनिकहरूले अतल्यालाई पक्रिए। तिनीहरूले उनलाई मारे जति बेला उनी घोडशालाको द्वार हुँदै महलमा गइन।
16So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses’ entry to the king’s house. She was slain there.
17तब यहोयादाले परमप्रभु, राजा र मानिसहरूबीच एउटा करार गरे। यस करारमा भनिएकोछ, राजा र मानिसहरू परमप्रभुका हुन। यहोयादाले राजा र मानिसहरूबीच पनि सम्झौता गराए। यस सम्झौताले भनिएको छ मानिसहरूका लागि राजाले के गर्नुपर्छ। अनि यो भनिएको छ मानिसहरूले राजाको आज्ञाको पालन गर्नुपर्छ अनि अनुसरण गर्नुपर्छ।
17Jehoiada made a covenant between Yahweh and the king and the people, that they should be Yahweh’s people; between the king also and the people.
18तब सबै मानिसहरू झूठो देवता बालको मन्दिरमा गए। मानिसहरूले बालको मूर्तिहरूलाई तल झारीदिए र वेदी भत्काइदिए। र तिनीहरूले उनको वेदी तोडिदिए। तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई धेरै टुक्रा पारे। मानिसहरूले बालका पूजारी मतनलाई पनि वेदीको सामु मारे। यसप्रकार पूजाहारी यहोयादाले मानिसहरूलाई परमप्रभुको मन्दिर हेरचाहा गर्न लगाए।
18All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down; his altars and his images broke they in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. The priest appointed officers over the house of Yahweh.
19पूजाहारीले सबै मानिसहरूलाई बाटो देखाए। तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरबाट राजाको महलमा गए। राजाका विशेष रक्षकहरू र सेनापति राजासँगै गए। अनि अरू सबै मानिसहरूले उनीहरूको अनुसरण गरे। तिनीहरू राजाको घरको प्रवेशद्वारमा पुगे। तब राजा योआश सिंहासनमा बसे।
19He took the captains over hundreds, and the Carites, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of Yahweh, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king’s house. He sat on the throne of the kings.
20सबै मानिसहरू प्रसन्न थिए। शहर स्थिर र शान्त थियो। र रानी अतल्यालाई राजाको महलको नजिक तरवारद्वारा मारिएको थियो।
20So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. Athaliah they had slain with the sword at the king’s house.
21योआश सात वर्षका थिए जब तिनी राजा बने।
21Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
