列王紀下 11
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1亞哈謝 的母親 亞她利雅 見她兒子死了,就起來剿滅王室。
1Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2但 約蘭 王的女兒, 亞哈謝 的妹子 約示巴 ,將 亞哈謝 的兒子 約阿施 從那被殺的王子中偷出來,把他和他的乳母都 藏 在臥房裏,躲避 亞她利雅 ,免得被殺。
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 that were slain, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bed-chamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3約阿施 和他的乳母藏在耶和華的殿裏六年; 亞她利雅 篡了國位。
3And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years; and Athaliah reigned over the land.
4第七年, 耶何耶大 打發人叫 迦利 人和護衛兵的眾百夫長來,領他們進了耶和華的殿,與他們立約,使他們在耶和華殿裏起誓,又將王的兒子指給他們看,
4And in 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 the LORD; and he made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and showed them the king's son.
5吩咐他們說:「你們當這樣行:凡安息日進班的三分之一要看守王宮,
5And he commanded them, saying: 'This is the thing that ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, and that keep the watch of the king's house —
6三分之一要在 蘇珥 門,三分之一要在護衛兵院的後門。這樣把守王宮,攔阻閒人。
6now another third part was at the gate Sur, and another third part at the gate behind the guard — shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7你們安息日所有出班的三分之二要在耶和華的殿裏護衛王;
7And the other two parts of you, even all that go forth on the sabbath, shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king.
8各人手拿兵器,四圍護衛王。凡擅入你們班次的必當治死,王出入的時候,你們當跟隨他。」
8And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that cometh within the ranks, let him be slain; and be ye with the king when he goeth out, and when he cometh in.'
9眾百夫長就照着祭司 耶何耶大 一切所吩咐的去行,各帶所管安息日進班出班的人來見祭司 耶何耶大 。
9And the captains over hundreds 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 those that were to go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10祭司便將耶和華殿裏所藏 大衛 王的槍和盾牌交給百夫長。
10And the priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spear and shields that had been king David's, which were in the house of the LORD.
11護衛兵手中各拿兵器,在壇和殿那裏,從殿右直到殿左,站在王子的四圍。
11And the 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, by the king round about.
12祭司領王子出來,給他戴上冠冕,將律法 書交給他 ,膏他作王;眾人就拍掌說:「願王萬歲!」
12Then he brought out the king's son, and put upon him the crown and the insignia; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said: 'Long live the king.'
13亞她利雅 聽見護衛兵和民的聲音,就到民那裏,進耶和華的殿,
13And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the house of the LORD.
14看見王照例站在柱旁,百夫長和吹號的人侍立在王左右,國中的眾民歡樂吹號; 亞她利雅 就撕裂衣服,喊叫說:「反了!反了!」
14And she looked, and, behold, the king stood on the platform, as the manner was, and the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets. Then Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried: 'Treason, treason.'
15祭司 耶何耶大 吩咐管轄軍兵的百夫長說:「將她趕出班外,凡跟隨她的必用刀殺死!」因為祭司說「不可在耶和華殿裏殺她」,
15And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them: 'Have her forth between the ranks; and him that followeth her slay with the sword'; for the priest said: 'Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.'
16眾兵就閃開讓她去;她從馬路上王宮去,便在那裏被殺。
16So they made way for her; and she went by the way of the horses' entry to the king's house; and there was she slain.
17耶何耶大 使王和民與耶和華立約,作耶和華的民;又使王與民立約。
17And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD'S people; between the king also and the people.
18於是國民都到 巴力 廟,拆毀了廟,打碎壇和像,又在壇前將 巴力 的祭司 瑪坦 殺了。祭司 耶何耶大 派官看守耶和華的殿,
18And all 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 slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.
19又率領百夫長和 迦利 人與護衛兵,以及國中的眾民,請王從耶和華殿下來,由護衛兵的門進入王宮,他就坐了王位。
19And he 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 the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard unto the king's house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
20國民都歡樂,閤城都安靜。眾人已將 亞她利雅 在王宮那裏用刀殺了。
20So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they slew Athaliah with the sword at the king's house.
21約阿施 登基的時候年方七歲。
21(12-1) Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
