YAH YADA SETS YAH ASH TO REIGN OVER YAH HUDAH
And in the seventh year Yah Yada strengthens himself and takes the governors of hundreds - Azar Yah the son of Yerocham and Yishma El the son of Yah Hanan and Azar Yah the son of Obed and Maase Yah the son of Ada Yah and Eli Shaphat the son of Zichri into covenant with him: 2 and they go all around Yah Hudah and gather the Leviym and the head of the fathers of Yisra El from all the cities of Yah Hudah; and they come to Yeru Shalem: 3 and all the congregation cuts a covenant with the sovereign in the house of Elohim. And he says to them, Behold, the son of the sovereign reigns, as Yah Veh worded concerning the sons of David. 4 This is the word you work: A third of you, entering on the shabbath of the priests and of the Leviym, are porters of the thresholds; 5 and a third, at the house of the sovereign; and a third, at the portal of the foundation; and all the people: are in the courts of the house of Yah Veh: 6 and none come into the house of Yah Veh, except the priests and of the Leviym who minister - they go in, for they are holy: but all the people guard the guard of Yah Veh. 7 And the Leviym surround the sovereign all around - every man with his instruments in his hand; and whoever goes into the house is deathified: and you are with the sovereign when he comes and when he goes. 8 And the Leviym and all Yah Hudah work according to all Yah Yada the priest misvahs; and every man takes his men who come in on the shabbath, with them who go out on the shabbath: for Yah Yada the priest liberates not the allotments. 9 And Yah Yada the priest gives the spears and bucklers and shields of sovereign David of the house of Elohim to the governors of hundreds: 10 and he stands all the people - every man with spear in hand, from the right shoulder of the house to the left shoulder of the house, along by the sacrifice altar, and the house by the sovereign, all around: 11 and they bring out the son of the sovereign and give on him the separatism and the witness and have him reign. And Yah Yada and his sons anoint him and say, The sovereign lives! 12 And Athal Yah hears the voice of the people running and halaling the sovereign; and she comes to the people in the house of Yah Veh: 13 and she sees, and behold, the sovereign stands at his pillar at the entrance; and the governors and the trumpets by the sovereign: and all the people of the land cheer and blast with trumpets, and the singers with instruments of song and such as make known to halal. And Athal Yah rips her clothes and says, Conspiracy! Conspiracy! 14 And Yah Yada the priest brings out the governors of hundreds who oversee the valiant, and says to them, Bring her from the house of the ranks: and whosever goes after her, deathify her with the sword - for the priest says, Deathify her not in the house of Yah Veh. 15 So they set hands on her; and she comes to the entrance of the horse portal by the house of the sovereign, and there they deathify her. 16 And Yah Yada cuts a covenant between him and between all the people and between the sovereign, to be a people to Yah Veh: 17 and all the people go to the house of Baal and pull it down and break his sacrifice altars and his images in pieces and slaughter Mattan the priest of Baal at the face of the sacrifice altars: 18 and Yah Yada sets the overseers of the house of Yah Veh at the hand of the priests - the Leviym David allotted in the house of Yah Veh to holocaust the holocausts of Yah Veh, as inscribed in the torah of Mosheh; with cheer and with singing, by the hand of David: 19 and he stands the porters at the portals of the house of Yah Veh, so that no one who is foul in any word enters in. 20 And he takes the governors of hundreds and the mighty and the sovereigns of the people and all the people of the land; and descends the sovereign from the house of Yah Veh: and they come through Elyon Portal into the house of the sovereign; and settle the sovereign on the throne of the sovereigndom. 21 And all the people of the land cheer and the city rests; and they deathify Athal Yah with the sword.
