Ɔsii ne bo ne asahene baanum, a wɔn ne Yeroham babarima Asaria, Yehohanan babarima Ismael, Obed babarima Asaria, Adaia babarima Maaseia ne Sikri babarima Elisafat yɛɛ apam. 2Saa mmarima yi faa esum ase, kyinii Yuda nyinaa, frɛfrɛɛ Lewifoɔ ne mmusua ntuanofoɔ a wɔwɔ Yuda nkuro so sɛ, wɔmmra Yerusalem. 3Wɔn nyinaa hyiaa wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan mu ne ɔhenberanteɛ Yoas yɛɛ apam.
Yehoiada ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ɛberɛ aduru sɛ ɔhene babarima di adeɛ. Awurade ahyɛ bɔ sɛ, Dawid aseni na ɔbɛyɛ yɛn ɔhene. 4Deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ nie: Sɛ asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ ba adwuma Homeda a, wɔn mu nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako na wɔbɛyɛ apono ano ahwɛfoɔ. 5Nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako nso bɛkɔ ahemfie, na nkyɛmu mmiɛnsa mu baako a aka no akɔ Fapem Ɛpono no ano.

Ɛberɛ biara, mommɛn ɔhene no pɛɛ.”
8Enti, Lewifoɔ no ne nnipa no yɛɛ biribiara a ɔsɔfoɔ Yehoiada hyɛɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ. Asahene no hwɛɛ wɔn a wɔkɔ adwuma saa Homeda no ne wɔn a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔgye wɔn ahome da no so.
