1 Cuando Atalía, la madre de Ocozías, rey de Judá, supo que su hijo había muerto, hizo matar a todos los hijos del rey.
1 Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal offspring.
2 El único que se salvó fue Joás, que tenía un año de edad, porque su tía Josaba, hija del rey Jorán y hermana del rey Ocozías, logró sacarlo y esconderlo en un dormitorio, junto con su niñera, cuando los demás hijos del rey estaban a punto de ser ejecutados.
2 But 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 who were slain, even him and his nurse, and put them in the bedroom; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3 Durante seis años, Joás y su niñera estuvieron escondidos en el templo del Señor, mientras Atalía reinaba en Judá.
3 He was with her hidden in Yahweh’s house six years while Athaliah reigned over the land.
4 En el séptimo año de Atalía, el sacerdote Joyadá mandó a llamar a los jefes de la guardia del palacio y a la escolta real. Se reunió con ellos en el templo del Señor, y luego de hacerles prometer que guardarían el secreto, les mostró al hijo del rey.
4 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 Yahweh’s house; and he made a covenant with them, and made a covenant with them in Yahweh’s house, and showed them the king’s son.
5 Luego les dio estas instrucciones: «La tercera parte de quienes estén de guardia en el día de reposo vigilará el palacio.
5 He commanded them, saying, “This is what you must do: a third of you, who come in on the Sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;
6 Otra tercera parte hará guardia en la puerta sur, y la otra tercera parte vigilará la puerta que está detrás del cuartel de la escolta real. Los demás, los que no estén de guardia el sábado, protegerán el templo del Señor. Rodearán al rey, con las armas en la mano, y matarán a quienquiera que trate de pasar. Acompañen al rey a dondequiera que vaya».
6 a third of you shall be at the gate Sur; and a third of you at the gate behind the guard. So you shall keep the watch of the house, and be a barrier.
7 Not in this translation
7 The two companies of you, even all who go out on the Sabbath, shall keep the watch of Yahweh’s house around the king.
8 Not in this translation
8 You shall surround the king, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he who comes within the ranks, let him be slain. Be with the king when he goes out, and when he comes in.”
9 Los jefes obedecieron las órdenes de Joyadá. Llevaron ante él a los hombres que estarían libres en el día de reposo y a los que iban a estar de servicio,
9 The captains over hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they each took his men, those who were to come in on the Sabbath with those who were to go out on the Sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 Joyadá los armó con las lanzas y escudos que estaban guardados en el templo del Señor, y que habían pertenecido al rey David.
10 The priest delivered to the captains over hundreds the spears and shields that had been King David’s, which were in Yahweh’s house.
11 Los guardianes, con las armas preparadas, se pararon en frente del santuario y rodearon el altar, desde el lado sur hasta el lado norte, para proteger al rey.
11 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, around the king.
12 Entonces Joyadá sacó al joven príncipe, le puso la corona en la cabeza y le dio una copia del pacto. Luego le derramó aceite sobre la cabeza y lo declaró rey de Judá. Todos aplaudieron y gritaron: «¡Que viva el rey!».
12 Then he brought out the king’s son, and put the crown on him, and gave him the covenant; and they made him king and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, “Long live the king!”
13 Cuando Atalía oyó el bullicio, entró al templo del Señor y vio al nuevo rey, de pie junto a la columna, como era costumbre en el momento de la coronación, y rodeado por los oficiales y por muchos trompetistas. Todos se regocijaban y hacían sonar las trompetas. Al ver esto, Atalía se rasgó sus vestidos y gritó: «¡Traición! ¡Traición!».
13 When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into Yahweh’s house;
14 Not in this translation
14 and she looked, and behold, the king stood by the pillar, as the tradition was, with the captains and the trumpets by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew trumpets. Then Athaliah tore her clothes and cried, “Treason! Treason!”
15 Entonces, el sacerdote Joyadá ordenó a los jefes de la guardia que la sacaran del templo del Señor y la mataran, junto con cualquiera que tratara de acudir en su ayuda.
15 Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, “Bring her out between the ranks. Kill anyone who follows her with the sword.” For the priest said, “Don’t let her be slain in Yahweh’s house.”
16 Ellos la arrastraron hacia los establos del palacio, y allí la mataron.
16 So they seized her; and she went by the way of the horses’ entry to the king’s house, and she was slain there.
17 Después, Joyadá hizo prometer al rey y a la gente que serían fieles al Señor. Además, hizo un pacto entre el rey y el pueblo.
17 Jehoiada made a covenant between Yahweh and the king and the people, that they should be Yahweh’s people; also between the king and the people.
18 Todos acudieron al santuario de Baal para destruirlo, y rompieron sus altares e imágenes, y mataron a Matán, el sacerdote de Baal, frente al altar. Joyadá puso guardias en el templo del Señor.
18 All the people of the land went to the house of Baal, and broke it down. They broke his altars and his images in pieces thoroughly, and killed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. The priest appointed officers over Yahweh’s house.
19 Luego él, los jefes, los guardianes y todo el pueblo condujeron al rey desde el templo del Señor y, pasando la guardia, lo llevaron a la casa del rey. Y allí Joás se sentó en el trono real.
19 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 Yahweh’s house, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king’s house. He sat on the throne of the kings.
20 Todos estaban felices, y la ciudad volvió a tener paz después de la muerte de Atalía.
20 So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. They had slain Athaliah with the sword at the king’s house.
21 Joás tenía siete años cuando comenzó a reinar.
21 Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
