< 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 also 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 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
Le nanao ze soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà t’Ioase amy ze hene’ andro’ Iehoiada mpisoroñe.
3 And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.
Nangala-baly roe ho aze t’Iehoiada, le nisamak’ ana-dahy naho anak’ ampela.
4 And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to repair the house of the LORD.
Ie añe, le tañ’ arofo’ Ioase ty nanomonty i anjomba’ Iehovày.
5 And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. But the Levites hastened it not.
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 And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
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 the house of God; and also all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD they bestowed upon Baalim.
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 And at the king’s commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of the LORD.
Aa le nandranjy vata iereo ty amy lili’ i mpanjakaiy naho napo’ iareo alafe’e ao an-dalam-bein’ anjomba’ Iehovà eo;
9 And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God laid upon 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 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had finished.
Le nirebeke iaby o roandriañeo naho ondatio, songa ninday vaho nampipok’ amy vatay ampara’ t’ie niheneke.
11 Now it came to pass, that at the time the chest was brought to the king’s office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the high 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 assembled 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 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of the LORD.
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 wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of God in order, 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 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, of which were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels to minister, and to offer with, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD 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 when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
Fe nigain-kantetse t’Iehoiada ie ni-lifots’ andro le nivilasy; zato-tsi-telopolo taoñe t’ie nihomake.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God, and toward 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 came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened to them.
Ie añe ty nihomaha’ Iehoiada le nomb’ amy mpanjakay o roandria’ Iehodao niambane ama’e; vaho hinao’ i mpanjakay.
18 And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.
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 give ear.
Nampihitrifañe mpitoky hampipoly iareo mb’am’ Iehovà, aa ndra t’ie nitolom-pitaroñe tsy nimete nanolo-ravembia iereo.
20 And the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, who stood above the people, and said to them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, he hath 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 And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD.
Fe nikinia aze iereo vaho name­tsaham-bato an-kiririsan’ anjomba’ Iehovà eo ami’ty nandilia’ i mpanjakay.
22 Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, The LORD look upon it, and require 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 And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the army of Syria 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 the spoil of them 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 host into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against 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 And when they had departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases, ) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchres 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 And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.
I Zabade, ana’ i Simeate, nte-Amone naho Iehozabade ana’ i Simerite, nte-Moabe ty nikilily aze.
27 Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of God, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
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.
