2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
Fito taoñe t’Ioase te niorotse nifehe; le nifehe efa-polo taoñe e Ierosalaime ao. I Tsibia nte-Bersebà ty tahinan-drene’e.
2 Joash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Le nanao ze soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà t’Ioase amy ze hene’ andro’ Iehoiada mpisoroñe.
3 Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
Nangala-baly roe ho aze t’Iehoiada, le nisamak’ ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela.
4 After this, Joash intended to restore the LORD’s house.
Ie añe, le tañ’ arofo’ Ioase ty nanomonty i anjomba’ Iehovày.
5 He 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 did not do it right away.
Natonto’e o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio le nanoa’e ty hoe, Akia, mb’amo rova’ Iehodao vaho atontono am’ Israele iaby ty drala hampisomontiañe ty anjomban’ Añahare boa-taoñe, le ilozoho! Fe tsy nahimbañe amy rahay o nte-Levio.
6 The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why have not you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Aa le kinanji’ i mpanjakay t’Iehoiada, talè, le hoe re ama’e, Aa vaho akore te tsy nipaia’o amo nte-Levio ty hañakatse am’ Iehoda naho am’ Ierosalaime ao i haba’ i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovày naho amy valobohò’ Israeley ho amy kibohom-pañinay.
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the LORD’s house to the Baals.
Amy te dinemodemo’ o ana-dahi’ i Atalià rakemba lo-tserekeo i anjomban’ Añaharey naho nengae’ iereo amo Baaleo o raha navaheñe añ’anjomba’ Iehovào.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the LORD’s house.
Aa le nandranjy vata iereo ty amy lili’ i mpanjakaiy naho napo’ iareo alafe’e ao an-dalam-bein’ anjomba’ Iehovà eo;
9 They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
naho nitsey e Iehoda vaho e Ierosalaime ao ty hindeseñe amy Iehovà i vili-loha nampanoe’ i Mosè mpitoron’ Añahare am’ Israele am-patrambeiy.
10 All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
Le nirebeke iaby o roandriañeo naho ondatio, songa ninday vaho nampipok’ amy vatay ampara’ t’ie niheneke.
11 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.
Ie amy zao naho nazilim-pità’ o nte-Levio i vatay vaho nioniñe te maro o dralao, le nimb’eo i mpitan-tsokim-panjakay naho ty sorotà’ i mpisorom-beiy le nikoahe’ iereo i vatay vaho nampolieñe an-toe’e eo; zay ty nanoe’ iareo handro an-kandro vaho nanonton-drala tsifotofoto.
12 The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
Natolo’ i mpanjakay naho Iehoiada amo mpitoloñe am-pitoroñañe i anjomba’ Iehovàio zay vaho nañarama mpandrafi-bato naho mpandranjy, hampisomontiañe i anjomba’ Iehovày naho mpanefe viñe vaho torisike hikotokotok’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày.
13 So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
Aa le nifanehake o mpitoloñeo naho nifonitse am-pità’ iareo i asay naho nifonire’ iareo manahake te taolo i anjomban’ Añaharey vaho nañafatratse aze.
14 When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
Ie nifonitse le nendese’ iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho Iehoiada eo o drala tsy nirì’eo vaho ie ty nitsenea’ iareo fanake ho a i anjomba’ Iehovày, fana-pitoroñañe naho fañengañe naho fìoke naho fanake volamena naho volafoty vaho nañenga soroñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao nainai’e tañ’ andro’ Iehoiadà.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
Fe nigain-kantetse t’Iehoiada ie ni-lifots’ andro le nivilasy; zato-tsi-telopolo taoñe t’ie nihomake.
16 They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
Le nalente’ iereo an-drova’ i Davide amo mpanjakao, ie nanao soa am’ Israele naho aman’ Añahare vaho amy anjomba’ey.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
Ie añe ty nihomaha’ Iehoiada le nomb’ amy mpanjakay o roandria’ Iehodao niambane ama’e; vaho hinao’ i mpanjakay.
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
Le nadò’ iareo i anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareoy naho nitoroñe o Aserào naho o raham-pahasiveo vaho nifetsak’ am’ Iehoda naho am’ Ierosalaime ty haviñerañe ty amy hakeo zay.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again to the LORD, and they testified against them; but they would not listen.
Nampihitrifañe mpitoky hampipoly iareo mb’am’ Iehovà, aa ndra t’ie nitolom-pitaroñe tsy nimete nanolo-ravembia iereo.
20 The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “God says, ‘Why do you disobey the LORD’s commandments, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.’”
Aa le niheo amy Zekarià, ana’ Iehoiada mpisoroñe t’i Arofon’ Añahare naho nijohañe am’ondatio nanao ty hoe: Hoe ty tsaràn’ Añahare: Akore ty fandilara’ areo o lili’ Iehovào? Tsy hiraorao; aa kanao naforintse’ areo t’Iehovà le nifarie’e ka nahareo.
21 They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the LORD’s house.
Fe nikinia aze iereo vaho nametsaham-bato an-kiririsan’ anjomba’ Iehovà eo ami’ty nandilia’ i mpanjakay.
22 Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May the LORD look at it, and repay it.”
Aa le tsy nitiahi’ Ioase mpanjaka ty fitretreza’ Iehoiada rae’e aze, te mone vinono’e i ana-dahi’ey, ze nanao ty hoe amy fitsingoro’ey: Ho vazoho’ Iehovà vaho ho valè’e.
23 At the end of the year, the army of the Syrians came up against him. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their plunder to the king of Damascus.
Aa ie amy fivariña’ i taoñey, naname aze ty valobohò’ i Arame; nimb’ e Iehoda naho mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo le zinevo’ iereo am’ondatio o mpiaolo’ ondaty iabio vaho fonga nahitri’ iareo amy mpanjaka’ i Damesèkey añe ty nikopahe’ iereo.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.
Toe am-pirimboña’ ondaty tsy ampeampe i valobohòn’ Aramey te naname, fa natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’e ty valobohòke jabajaba amy t’ie namorintseñe Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo. Aa le nametsa-jaka amy Ioase iereo,
25 When they had departed from him (for they left him seriously wounded), 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. They buried him in David’s city, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
naho nieng’ aze naho fa navoretra’ iareo am-pere, le nikilily aze o mpitoro’eo ty amy lio’ i ana’ Iehoiada mpisoroñeiy naho vinono’ iareo am-pandrea’e eo, nikoromake; vaho naleveñe an-drova’ i Davide ao, fe tsy nalentek’ amo kiborim-panjakao.
26 These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
I Zabade, ana’ i Simeate, nte-Amone naho Iehozabade ana’ i Simerite, nte-Moabe ty nikilily aze.
27 Now concerning his sons, 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.
Aa naho o ana’eo naho ty fitoabora’ o fetse ama’eo vaho ty nampisomontie’e i anjomban’ Añaharey, oniño te sinokitse an-talily fonitse amy boke’ o mpanjakaoy. I Amatsià ana’e ty nandimbe aze nifehe.
