亚他利雅弄权(A)

11 亚哈谢的母亲亚他利雅看见自己的儿子死了,就起来消灭王室所有的后裔。 但约兰王的女儿,亚哈谢的妹妹约示巴,把亚哈谢的儿子约阿施从正要被杀的王子中偷了出来,把他和他的乳母藏在卧室里面;他们把他收藏起来,躲避亚他利雅,免得他被杀死。 约阿施和他的乳母在耶和华的殿中躲藏了六年;亚他利雅却作王统治那地。

耶何耶大等人立约辅助王子(B)

在第七年,耶何耶大派人把迦利人和卫兵的众百夫长带来,领他们进入耶和华的殿中,和他们立约,使他们在耶和华的殿里起誓,然后把王子带出来和他们见面。 他又吩咐他们说:“你们要这样作:你们在安息日值班的,三分之一要守卫王宫; 三分之一要在苏珥门;三分之一要在卫兵院的后门;你们要轮班把守王宫。 你们在安息日不用当值的两班人,要为王的缘故守卫耶和华的殿。 你们要在四周围护着王,各人手中要拿着自己的武器。擅自闯入班次的,必被处死。王出入的时候,你们要紧随左右。”

于是众百夫长照着耶何耶大祭司的一切吩咐去行。他们各自率领人马,无论在安息日值班或不用当值的,都来到耶何耶大祭司那里。 10 耶何耶大就把藏在耶和华殿里,属于大卫王的矛枪和盾牌交给众百夫长。 11 各卫兵手持兵器,从殿的右面到殿的左面,面对祭坛和殿,围绕着王侍立。 12 耶何耶大领王子出来,把王冠戴在他的头上,又把约书交给他。他们就拥立他为王,用膏膏他,并且拍掌,说:“愿王万岁!”

亚他利雅被杀(C)

13 亚他利雅听见卫兵和民众的声音,就进到耶和华的殿、众民那里去。 14 她看见王子按着规例站在柱旁那里,首领和号手在王的旁边,当地所有的人民欢乐吹号。亚他利雅于是撕裂衣服,呼叫:“反了!反了!” 15 耶何耶大祭司吩咐众百夫长,就是统领军兵的,对他们说:“把她从各班军兵中赶出去,跟随她的,都要用刀杀死。”因为祭司说:“不可在耶和华的殿内杀死她。” 16 于是他们下手拿住她;她回到王宫的马门的时候,就在那里被人杀死。

耶何耶大的改革(D)

17 耶何耶大又使王和人民与耶和华立约,好使他们作耶和华的人民;又使王与人民立约。 18 然后当地所有的人民都来到巴力庙,把它拆毁,把它的坛和像完全打碎,又在祭坛前把巴力的祭司玛坦杀了。耶何耶大祭司又设立官员管理耶和华的殿。 19 他又率领众百夫长、迦利人、卫兵和当地所有的人民,护送王从耶和华的殿下来,经卫兵的门进入王宫。这样,约阿施就坐上了王位。 20 当地所有的人民都欢乐,阖城平静;至于亚他利雅,他们在王宫用刀把她杀死了。

21 约阿施作王的时候,只有七岁。(本节在《马索拉文本》为12:1)

11 And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.

But 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.

And he was with her hid in the house of the Lord six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land.

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.

And 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;

And 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.

And 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.

And 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.

And 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.

10 And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David's spears and shields, that were in the temple of the Lord.

11 And 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.

12 And 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 And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the Lord.

14 And 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.

15 But 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.

16 And 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 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.

18 And 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.

19 And 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.

20 And 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.

21 Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.

亚她利雅灭王室自立

11 亚哈谢的母亲亚她利雅见她儿子死了,就起来剿灭王室。 约兰王的女儿、亚哈谢的妹子约示巴亚哈谢的儿子约阿施从那被杀的王子中偷出来,把他和他的乳母都藏在卧房里,躲避亚她利雅,免得被杀。 约阿施和他的乳母藏在耶和华的殿里六年。亚她利雅篡了国位。

耶何耶大与众立约誓辅王子

第七年,耶何耶大打发人叫迦利[a]和护卫兵的众百夫长来,领他们进了耶和华的殿,与他们立约,使他们在耶和华殿里起誓,又将王的儿子指给他们看, 吩咐他们说:“你们当这样行:凡安息日进班的,三分之一要看守王宫, 三分之一要在苏珥门,三分之一要在护卫兵院的后门。这样把守王宫,拦阻闲人。 你们安息日所有出班的三分之二,要在耶和华的殿里护卫王。 各人手拿兵器,四围护卫王,凡擅入你们班次的必当治死。王出入的时候,你们当跟随他。”

众百夫长就照着祭司耶何耶大一切所吩咐的去行,各带所管安息日进班出班的人来见祭司耶何耶大 10 祭司便将耶和华殿里所藏大卫王的枪和盾牌交给百夫长。 11 护卫兵手中各拿兵器,在坛和殿那里,从殿右直到殿左,站在王子的四围。 12 祭司领王子出来,给他戴上冠冕,将律法书交给他,膏他做王。众人就拍掌说:“愿王万岁!”

亚她利雅见杀

13 亚她利雅听见护卫兵和民的声音,就到民那里,进耶和华的殿。 14 看见王照例站在柱旁,百夫长和吹号的人侍立在王左右,国中的众民欢乐、吹号,亚她利雅就撕裂衣服,喊叫说:“反了!反了!” 15 祭司耶何耶大吩咐管辖军兵的百夫长说:“将她赶出班外,凡跟随她的必用刀杀死。”因为祭司说:“不可在耶和华殿里杀她。” 16 众兵就闪开让她去,她从马路上王宫去,便在那里被杀。

耶何耶大使王与民崇侍耶和华

17 耶何耶大使王和民与耶和华立约,做耶和华的民,又使王与民立约。 18 于是国民都到巴力庙,拆毁了庙,打碎坛和像,又在坛前将巴力的祭司玛坦杀了。祭司耶何耶大派官看守耶和华的殿, 19 又率领百夫长和迦利[b]与护卫兵,以及国中的众民,请王从耶和华殿下来,由护卫兵的门进入王宫。他就坐了王位。 20 国民都欢乐,合城都安静。众人已将亚她利雅在王宫那里用刀杀了。

21 约阿施登基的时候年方七岁。

Athaliah and Joash(A)

11 When Athaliah(B) the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to destroy the whole royal family. But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram[a] and sister of Ahaziah, took Joash(C) son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the royal princes, who were about to be murdered. She put him and his nurse in a bedroom to hide him from Athaliah; so he was not killed.(D) He remained hidden with his nurse at the temple of the Lord for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.

In the seventh year Jehoiada sent for the commanders of units of a hundred, the Carites(E) and the guards and had them brought to him at the temple of the Lord. He made a covenant with them and put them under oath at the temple of the Lord. Then he showed them the king’s son. He commanded them, saying, “This is what you are to do: You who are in the three companies that are going on duty on the Sabbath(F)—a third of you guarding the royal palace,(G) a third at the Sur Gate, and a third at the gate behind the guard, who take turns guarding the temple— and you who are in the other two companies that normally go off Sabbath duty are all to guard the temple for the king. Station yourselves around the king, each of you with weapon in hand. Anyone who approaches your ranks[b] is to be put to death. Stay close to the king wherever he goes.”

The commanders of units of a hundred did just as Jehoiada the priest ordered. Each one took his men—those who were going on duty on the Sabbath and those who were going off duty—and came to Jehoiada the priest. 10 Then he gave the commanders the spears and shields(H) that had belonged to King David and that were in the temple of the Lord. 11 The guards, each with weapon in hand, stationed themselves around the king—near the altar and the temple, from the south side to the north side of the temple.

12 Jehoiada brought out the king’s son and put the crown on him; he presented him with a copy of the covenant(I) and proclaimed him king. They anointed(J) him, and the people clapped their hands(K) and shouted, “Long live the king!”(L)

13 When Athaliah heard the noise made by the guards and the people, she went to the people at the temple of the Lord. 14 She looked and there was the king, standing by the pillar,(M) as the custom was. The officers and the trumpeters were beside the king, and all the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets.(N) Then Athaliah tore(O) her robes and called out, “Treason! Treason!”(P)

15 Jehoiada the priest ordered the commanders of units of a hundred, who were in charge of the troops: “Bring her out between the ranks[c] and put to the sword anyone who follows her.” For the priest had said, “She must not be put to death in the temple(Q) of the Lord.” 16 So they seized her as she reached the place where the horses enter(R) the palace grounds, and there she was put to death.(S)

17 Jehoiada then made a covenant(T) between the Lord and the king and people that they would be the Lord’s people. He also made a covenant between the king and the people.(U) 18 All the people of the land went to the temple(V) of Baal and tore it down. They smashed(W) the altars and idols to pieces and killed Mattan the priest(X) of Baal in front of the altars.

Then Jehoiada the priest posted guards at the temple of the Lord. 19 He took with him the commanders of hundreds, the Carites,(Y) the guards and all the people of the land, and together they brought the king down from the temple of the Lord and went into the palace, entering by way of the gate of the guards. The king then took his place on the royal throne. 20 All the people of the land rejoiced,(Z) and the city was calm, because Athaliah had been slain with the sword at the palace.

21 Joash[d] was seven years old when he began to reign.[e]
