1Pea ʻi heʻene sio ʻe ʻAtalia ko e faʻē ʻa ʻAhasia kuo mate ʻa ʻene tama, naʻa ne tuʻu hake mo ne fakaʻauha ʻae hako kotoa pē ʻoe hau.
1And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2Ka ko Sihosipa ko e ʻofefine ʻoe tuʻi ko Solami, ko e tuofefine ʻo ʻAhasia, naʻe ʻave ʻa Soasa ko e foha ʻo ʻAhasia, mo ne ʻave fufū ia mei he lotolotonga ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻoe tuʻi ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi; pea naʻa nau fufū ia meia ʻAtalia, ʻio, ʻaia mo ʻene fefine tauhi, ʻi he fale mohe, pea ko ia naʻe ʻikai tāmateʻi ai ia.
2But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3Pea naʻe fufū ʻakinaua ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono. Pea naʻe pule ʻa ʻAtalia ki he fonua.
3And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land.
4¶ Pea ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata mo ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he taki toko teau, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau mo e kau leʻo, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻakinautolu kiate ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa ne fai fuakava mo kinautolu, pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻenau lea fuakava ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, mo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae foha ʻoe tuʻi.
4¶ And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD , and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD , and shewed them the king’s son.
5Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko eni ʻae meʻa te mou fai; ʻe vahe tolu ʻakimoutolu ʻoku hū ange ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pea ko homou vahe ʻe taha ʻe tauhi mo leʻohi ʻae fale ʻoe tuʻi;
5And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;
6Pea ko homou vahe ʻe taha ʻe ʻi he matapā ʻo Suli; pea ko e vahe ʻe taha ʻi he matapā ki mui ʻi he kau leʻo: ʻe pehē pe ʻa hoʻomou leʻohi ʻae fale ke ʻoua naʻa maumauʻi ia.
6And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.
7Pea ko hono vahe ua ʻokimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu kituʻa ʻi he ʻaho tapu, ʻe ʻanautolu ʻae tauhi mo e leʻohi ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi.
7And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king.
8Pea te mou nofo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi, pea toʻo ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa hono mahafu ʻi hono nima: pea ʻilonga ha taha ʻe Lakaatu ki loto, tuku ke tāmateʻi ia: pea te mou ʻi he tuʻi ʻi heʻene ʻalu kituʻa mo ʻene hū mai.”
8And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that cometh within the ranges, let him be slain: and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as he cometh in.
9Paʻa naʻe fai ʻe he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki: pea naʻa nau ʻave taki taha ʻa ʻene kau tangata ʻaia naʻe vahe ke hū mai ʻi he ʻaho tapu, pea mo kinautolu naʻe vahe ke ʻalu kituʻa ʻi he ʻaho tapu, ʻonau omi kia Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki.
9And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10Pea naʻe foaki ʻe he taulaʻeiki ki he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ʻae ngaahi tao mo e ngaahi pā ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi, ʻaia naʻe tuku ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.
10And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David’s spears and shields, that were in the temple of the LORD .
11Pea naʻe tutuʻu ʻae kau leʻo, ko e tangata taki taha mo ʻene mahafu ʻi hono nima, ʻo takatakai ʻi he tuʻi, mei he tuliki fakatoʻomataʻu ʻoe faletapu ʻo fai hake ki he tuliki fakatoʻohema ʻoe faletapu, ʻo vāofi mo e feilaulauʻanga pea mo e faletapu.
11And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple.
12Pea naʻa ne ʻomi kituʻa ʻae foha ʻoe tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻai ʻae tatā fakatuʻi kiate ia, mo ne ʻatu kiate ia ʻae tohi ʻoe fono; pea naʻa nau fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi, mo nau pani ia ʻaki ʻae lolo; pea naʻa nau pasi nima, ʻonau pehē, “Ke moʻui pe ʻae tuʻi.”
12And he brought forth the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, God save the king.
13¶ Pea ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe ʻAtalia ki he longoaʻa ʻoe kau leʻo pea mo e kakai, naʻa ne haʻu ki he kakai ʻi he loto faletapu ʻo Sihova.
13¶ And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the LORD .
14Pea ʻi heʻene sio, vakai, naʻe tuʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻi he veʻepou, ʻo hangē ko hono anga, pea tutuʻu fakataha mo e tuʻi ʻae houʻeiki pea mo e kau tangata ifi meʻalea, pea naʻe fiefia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, pea naʻa nau ifi ʻae ngaahi meʻalea: pea naʻe haehae ʻe ʻAtalia ʻa hono ngaahi kofu, pea ne kalanga, “Ko e lapa, ko e lapa.”
14And when she looked, behold, the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was , and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, Treason, Treason.
15Ka naʻe fekau ʻe Sihoiata ko e taulaʻeiki ki he ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, ko e houʻeiki ki he kautau, mo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Mou ʻave ia kituaʻā: pea ko ia ʻoku muimui ʻiate ia tuku ke tāmateʻi ia ʻaki ʻae heletā.” He kuo pehē ʻe he taulaʻeiki, “Ke ʻoua naʻa tāmateʻi ia ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.”
15But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD .
16Pea naʻa nau puke nima ia; pea naʻa ne ʻalu ʻi he hala ko ia naʻe faʻa hū ai ʻae fanga hoosi ki he nofoʻanga ʻoe tuʻi: pea naʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻi ai.
16And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king’s house: and there was she slain.
17¶ Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sihoiata ha fuakava ʻia Sihova pea mo e tuʻi pea mo e kakai, ke nau hoko ko e kakai ʻa Sihova ʻakinautolu; pea ʻi he tuʻi foki mo e kakai.
17¶ And 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.
18Pea naʻe hū atu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ki he fale ʻo Peali, pea naʻa nau maumau hifo ia; ʻa hono ngaahi feilaulauʻanga pea mo hono ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻa nau laiki ke ʻosi, pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻa Matani ko e taulaʻeiki ʻa Peali ʻi he muʻa feilaulauʻanga. Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe he taulaʻeiki ʻae kau matāpule ki he fale ʻo Sihova.
18And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake 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 .
19Pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki ʻoe ngaahi toko teau, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau, mo e kau leʻo, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua; pea naʻa nau ʻohifo ʻae tuʻi mei he fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi ʻi he hala mo e matapā ʻoe kau leʻo. Pea naʻa ne nofo ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi.
19And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, 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 to the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
20Pea naʻe fakafiefia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, pea naʻe nofo lelei pe ʻae kolo: pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻa ʻAtalia ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻo ofi ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi.
20And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king’s house.
21Pea naʻe fitu taʻu ʻe motuʻa ʻo Soasa ʻi heʻene kamata pule ʻaʻana.
21Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.
