Ayoyin Littafi Mai Tsarki game da Athaliah

Da Ataliya mahaifiyar Ahaziya ta ga ɗanta ya mutu, sai ta shiga hallaka dukan iyalin gidan sarauta.

Amma Yehosheba, ’yar Sarki Yoram, ’yar’uwar Ahaziya, ta ɗauki Yowash ɗan Ahaziya daga cikin ’ya’yan sarkin da ake shiri a kashe, ta ɓoye. Ta ɓoye shi daga Ataliya a wurin mai lura da shi a ɗakin kwana; don kada a kashe shi.

Ya kasance a ɓoye, shi da mai lura da shi, a haikalin Ubangiji shekara shida yayinda Ataliya take mulkin ƙasar.

Sai Yehohiyada ya fito da ɗan sarki ya sa masa rawani a kā; ya ba shi shafin alkawari, ya kuma furta shi sarki. Suka shafe shi da mai, mutane kuma suka yi ta tafi suka ihu, suna cewa, “Ran sarki yă daɗe.”

Sa’ad da Ataliya ta ji surutun matsara da na mutane, sai ta tafi wurin mutanen a haikalin Ubangiji.

Da ta duba sai ga sarki, tsaye kusa da ginshiƙi, bisa ga al’ada. Hafsoshi da masu busa suna tsaye kusa da sarki, dukan mutanen ƙasar kuma suna farin ciki suna busa ƙahoni. Sai Ataliya ta keta tufafinta ta tā da murya tana cewa, “Kai! Wannan cin amana ne! Ai, wannan cin amana ne!”

Saboda haka suka kama ta yayinda ta kai inda dawakai sukan shiga filin fada, a can kuwa aka kashe ta.

Sa’ad da Ataliya mahaifiyar Ahaziya ta ga cewa ɗanta ya mutu, sai ta tashi ta hallaka dukan ’yan gidan sarautar Yahuda.

Amma Yehosheba, ’yar Sarki Yehoram, ta ɗauki Yowash ɗan Ahaziya ta sace shi daga cikin ’ya’yan gidan sarauta waɗanda ake shiri a kashe, ta sa shi tare da mai renonsa a ɗakin kwana. Haka fa, Yehosheba ’yar sarki Yoram, matar Yehohiyada firist, ta yi, gama ita ’yar’uwar Ahaziya ce, ta ɓoye Yowash don kada Ataliya tă kashe shi.

Ya kasance a ɓoye tare da su a haikalin Allah shekara shida, yayinda Ataliya take mulkin ƙasar.

Sa’ad da Ataliya ta ji surutun mutane suna gudu suna yabon sarki, sai ta tafi wurinsu a haikalin Ubangiji.

Ta duba, a can kuwa ga sarki, tsaye kusa da ginshiƙinsa a mashigi. Manyan sojoji da masu bushe-bushe suna kusa da sarki, dukan mutanen ƙasar kuwa suna farin ciki suna busa ƙahoni, mawaƙa kuma da kayan kiɗi suna bi da yabo. Sai Ataliya ta yage rigunanta ta yi ihu tana cewa, “Cin amanar ƙasa! Cin amanar ƙasa!”
