¹Joash was seven years old when he began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.

¹Yoo'aashna toddoba sannadood buu jiray markuu boqor noqday, oo afartan sannadoodna Yeruusaalem buu boqor ku ahaa, oo hooyadiis magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Sibyaah tii reer Bi'ir Shebac.

²Joash did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh all the days of Jehoiada the priest.

²Oo Yoo'aashna wuxuu sameeyey wixii Rabbiga hortiisa ku qummanaa wakhtigii wadaadkii Yehooyaadaac ahaa noolaa oo dhan.

³Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he became the father of sons and daughters.

³Oo Yehooyaadaacna wuxuu isagii u guuriyey laba naagood, oo wuxuu dhalay wiilal iyo gabdhoba.

⁴It happened after this, that Joash intended to restore the house of Yahweh.

⁴Oo waxyaalahaas dabadoodna Yoo'aash wuxuu ku fikiray inuu gurigii Rabbiga cusboonaysiiyo.

⁵He gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter.” However the Levites didn’t do it right away.

⁵Markaasuu soo wada ururiyey wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Baxa oo magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah taga, oo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan waxaad ka soo ururisaan lacag guriga Ilaahiinna lagu cusboonaysiiyo sannad ilaa sannad, oo xaalkaas dhaqso u sameeya. Habase yeeshee kuwii reer Laawi xaalkaas kuma ayan dhaqsan.

⁶The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why haven’t you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of Yahweh, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the tent of the testimony?”

⁶Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu u yeedhay Yehooyaadaac oo madax ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaad u weyddiin weyday reer Laawi inay dadkii Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem ka soo ururiyaan cashuurtii Muuse oo ahaa addoonkii Rabbiga iyo tii shirka reer binu Israa'iil teendhadii maragga aawadeed?

⁷For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the house of Yahweh to the Baals.

⁷Waayo, Catalyaah oo ahayd tu shar ah wiilasheedii ayaa gurigii Ilaah burburiyeen, oo weliba alaabtii guriga Rabbiga oo quduuska laga dhigay oo dhan waxay wada siiyeen Bacaliim.

⁸So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the house of Yahweh.

⁸Sidaas daraaddeed boqorkii wuu amray oo iyana waxay sameeyeen sanduuq, oo waxay ag qotomiyeen guriga Rabbiga iriddiisa dibaddeeda.

⁹They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for Yahweh the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.

⁹Markaasay dalka Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem oo dhan ku naadiyeen in Rabbiga loo keeno cashuurtii Muuse oo ahaa addoonkii Ilaah uu reer binu Israa'iil kor saaray markay cidlada dhex joogeen.

¹⁰All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.

¹⁰Markaasaa amiirradii iyo dadkii oo dhammu reyreeyeen oo intay wax keeneen ayay ku rideen sanduuqii ilaa ay ka buuxiyeen.

¹¹It was so, that whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.

¹¹Oo waxay noqotay in markii sanduuqii la geeyey xafiiskii boqorka iyadoo ay reer Laawi sidaan, oo la arkay in lacag badanu ku jirto ayaa waxaa yimid oo sanduuqii ka shubay karraanigii boqorka iyo sirkaalkii wadaadka sare, oo haddana sanduuqii bay qaadeen oo meeshiisii ku celiyeen. Oo saasay maalin kasta yeeli jireen, oo waxay soo ururiyeen lacag faro badan.

¹²The king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of Yahweh; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of Yahweh, and also such as worked iron and brass to repair the house of Yahweh.

¹²Oo boqorkii iyo Yehooyaadaac waxay lacagtii siin jireen kuwii samayn jiray hawshii adeegidda guriga Rabbiga, oo waxay soo kiraysteen wastaadyo iyo nijaarro si ay u cusboonaysiiyaan gurigii Rabbiga, oo waxay kaloo siin jireen kuwii bir iyo naxaas wax uga samayn jiray si ay gurigii Rabbiga ugu hagaajiyaan.

¹³So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands, and they set up God’s house in its state, and strengthened it.

¹³Markaasay shaqaalihii shaqeeyeen, oo shuqulkiina gacantoodii buu ku hagaagay, oo gurigii Ilaahna waxay ka dhigeen siduu ahaan jiray, wayna adkeeyeen.

¹⁴When they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, of which were made vessels for the house of Yahweh, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the house of Yahweh continually all the days of Jehoiada.

¹⁴Oo markay hawshii dhammeeyeen waxay lacagtii hadhay keeneen boqorkii iyo Yehooyaadaac hortooda, oo taasna waxaa gurigii Rabbiga looga sameeyey weelal, kuwaasoo ahaa weelal lagu adeegi jiray iyo kuwa wax lagu bixin jiray, iyo malgacadihii, iyo weelashii ahaa dahabka iyo lacagta. Oo Yehooyaadaac cimrigiisii oo dhanna guriga Rabbiga waxaa had iyo goor lagu bixin jiray qurbaanno la gubo.

¹⁵But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; one hundred thirty years old was he when he died.

¹⁵Laakiinse Yehooyaadaac wuu da' weynaa, gabow buuna la dhacay, wuuna dhintay, oo markuu dhintay wuxuu jiray boqol iyo soddon sannadood.

¹⁶They buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.

¹⁶Oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii Daa'uud, iyo meel qabuurihii boqorrada dhexdooda ah, maxaa yeelay, wax wanaagsan buu ku dhex sameeyey reer binu Israa'iil, iyo xagga Ilaah iyo xagga gurigiisba.

¹⁷Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king listened to them.

¹⁷Haddaba markii Yehooyaadaac dhintay dabadeed waxaa yimid amiirradii dalkii Yahuudah oo boqorkay u sujuudeen. Markaasaa boqorkii iyagii maqlay.

¹⁸They forsook the house of Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.

¹⁸Oo iyana waxay ka tageen gurigii Rabbiga ah Ilaahii awowayaashood, oo waxay u adeegeen geedihii Asheeraah iyo sanamyadii. Markaasaa dadkii dalka Yahuudah iyo dadkii Yeruusaalem degganaa waxaa ku soo degtay cadho xadgudubkoodan aawadiis.

¹⁹Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again to Yahweh; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.

¹⁹Oo weliba wuxuu u soo diray nebiyo si ay iyaga ugu soo celiyaan Rabbiga xaggiisa, iyana way ku marag fureen iyagii, laakiin ma ay maqlin.

²⁰The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “Thus says God, ‘Why do you disobey the commandments of Yahweh, so that you can’t prosper? Because you have forsaken Yahweh, he has also forsaken you.’”

²⁰Markaasaa Ruuxii Ilaah wuxuu ku soo degay Sekaryaah oo uu dhalay wadaadkii Yehooyaadaac ahaa, oo isna intuu meel dadka ka koraysaa istaagay ayuu ku yidhi, Ilaah wuxuu idinku leeyahay, War maxaad ugu xadgudbaysaan Rabbiga amarradiisa? Idinku ma liibaani karaysaan, maxaa yeelay, Rabbiga waad ka tagteen, isna wuu idinka tegey.

²¹They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of Yahweh.

²¹Oo iyana intay isagii shirqool u dhigeen, ayay iyagoo boqorka amar ka wata isagii ku dhagxiyeen barxadda guriga Rabbiga.

²²Thus Joash the king didn’t remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May Yahweh look at it, and repay it.”

²²Sidaasuusan Boqor Yoo'aash u xusuusan roonaantii uu Yehooyaadaac oo isaga aabbihiis ahaa u sameeyey, laakiinse wuxuu dilay wiilkiisii. Oo markuu dhimanayay ayuu yidhi, Rabbigu xaalkan ha fiiriyo oo ha idin weyddiiyo.

²³It happened at the end of the year, that the army of the Syrians came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus.

²³Oo isla sannaddaas dhammaadkeedii waxaa isagii ku soo kacay ciidankii reer Suuriya, oo intay dalkii Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem yimaadeen ayay amiirradii dadka oo dhan ka baabbi'iyeen dadka dhexdiisii, oo wixii ay dhaceen oo dhan ayay u direen boqorkii Dimishaq degganaa.

²⁴For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and Yahweh delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken Yahweh, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.

²⁴Ciidankii reer Suuriya waxay yimaadeen iyagoo ah guuto yar, markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu gacanta u geliyey ciidan aad u faro badan, maxaa yeelay, waxay ka tageen Rabbigii ahaa Ilaahii awowayaashood. Oo sidaasaa xukun loogu soo dejiyey Yoo'aash.

²⁵When they were departed for him (for they left him very sick), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died; and they buried him in the city of David, but they didn’t bury him in the tombs of the kings.

²⁵Oo markay isagii ka tageen, (waayo, waxay ka tageen isagoo aad iyo aad u buka) ayaa isaga addoommadiisii u sirqooleen dhiiggii uu qabay oo ilma Yehooyaadaac, kii wadaadka ahaa, oo waxay dileen isagoo sariirtiisii ku jiifa, wuuna dhintay. Oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii Daa'uud, laakiinse isagii laguma dhex aasin qabuurihii boqorrada.

²⁶These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.

²⁶Oo kuwii isaga sirqoolka u dhigayna waxay ahaayeen Saabaad oo ay dhashay Shimcaad oo ahayd reer Cammoon, iyo Yehoosaabaad oo ay dhashay Shimriid oo ahayd reer Moo'aab.Haddaba xaalkii wiilashiisa, iyo culaabtii weynayd ee korkiisa saarnayd, iyo siduu gurigii Ilaah mar dambe u dhisayba, bal eeg waxay ku wada qoran yihiin kitaabkii boqorrada. Oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Amasyaah.

²⁷Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid on him, and the rebuilding of God’s house, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.

²⁷Haddaba xaalkii wiilashiisa, iyo culaabtii weynayd ee korkiisa saarnayd, iyo siduu gurigii Ilaah mar dambe u dhisayba, bal eeg waxay ku wada qoran yihiin kitaabkii boqorrada. Oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Amasyaah.
