Luo Chronicle 29
1 Hezekiah el tokosrala fin acn Judah ke el yac longoul limekosr, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac longoul eu. Nina kial pa Abijah, acn natul Zechariah.
Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
2 El fahsr tukun srikasrak lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal, ac el oru ma LEUM GOD El insewowo kac.
He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that David his father had done.
3 In malem se meet ke yac se tukun Hezekiah el tokosrala, el sifil ikasla mutunoa lun Tempul, ac sap in akwoyeyukla.
In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the LORD’s house and repaired them.
4 El solani sie un mwet tol ac mwet Levi ke nien tukeni se layen kutulap in Tempul,
He brought in the priests and the Levites and gathered them together into the wide place on the east,
5 ac kaskas nu selos we. El fahk, “Kowos mwet Levi, akmutalye kowos ac aknasnasyela Tempul lun LEUM GOD lun papa tomowos. Sisla liki Tempul ma nukewa ma akfohkfokye.
and said to them, “Listen to me, you Levites! Now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers, and carry the filthiness out of the holy place.
6 Papa matu tumasr elos tiana pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD lasr, ac elos oru ma El tia insewowo kac. Elos ngetla lukel ac fahsr liki yen El muta we.
For our fathers were unfaithful, and have done that which was evil in the LORD our God’s sight, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the LORD, and turned their backs.
7 Elos kaliya mutunoa lun Tempul ac fuhlela lam we in kunla. Elos tia akosak mwe keng ku kisakin mwe kisa firir in Tempul lun God lun Israel.
Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.
8 Ke sripa inge, LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sin Judah ac Jerusalem, ac ma El oru nu selos arulana mwe lut ac mwe aksangeng nu sin mwet nukewa. Kowos sifacna liye ma inge ke motowos.
Therefore the LORD’s wrath was on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has delivered them to be tossed back and forth, to be an astonishment and a hissing, as you see with your eyes.
9 Papa tumasr elos anwuki ke mweun, ac utukla mutan kiasr ac tulik natusr nu in sruoh.
For behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.
10 “Inge nga akola in orala sie wulela yurin LEUM GOD lun Israel, tuh Elan tia sifil kasrkusrak sesr.
Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, that his fierce anger may turn away from us.
11 Wen nutik, nik kowos sisla pacl. Kowos pa LEUM GOD El sulela in akosak mwe keng nu sel, ac in kol mwet uh in alu nu sel.”
My sons, don’t be negligent now; for the LORD has chosen you to stand before him, to minister to him, and that you should be his ministers and burn incense.”
12 Na mwet Levi inge elos tuyak: Liki sou lulap lal Kohath: Mahath wen natul Amasai, ac Joel wen natul Azariah Liki sou lulap lal Merari: Kish wen natul Abdi, ac Azariah wen natul Jehallelel Liki sou lulap lal Gershon: Joah wen natul Zimmah, ac Eden wen natul Joah
Then the Levites arose: Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah;
13 Liki sou lulap lal Elizaphan: Shimri ac Jeuel Liki sou lulap lal Asaph: Zechariah ac Mattaniah
and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 Liki sou lulap lal Heman: Jehuel ac Shimei Liki sou lulap lal Jeduthun: Shemaiah ac Uzziel
and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 Mwet inge elos solani mwet Levi wialos, ac elos nukewa aknasnasyalos sifacna. Na elos oru oana ma tokosra el sapkin nu selos, ac elos mutawauk in oru Tempul uh in nasnas, fal nu ke Ma Sap lun LEUM GOD.
They gathered their brothers, sanctified themselves, and went in, according to the commandment of the king by the LORD’s words, to cleanse the LORD’s house.
16 Mwet tol elos utyak nu in Tempul in aknasnasyela, ac ma nukewa we ma tia nasnas elos usla liki Tempul nu ke nien tukeni likinum in Tempul. Na mwet Levi elos us ma inge nukewa we lac nu Infahlfal Kidron likin siti uh.
The priests went into the inner part of the LORD’s house to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the LORD’s temple into the court of the LORD’s house. The Levites took it from there to carry it out to the brook Kidron.
17 Orekma se inge mutawauk ke len se meet ke malem se meet, ac ke len akoalkosr elos aksafyela ma nukewa, weang pac infukil in utyak nu in Tempul. Na elos sifil orekma len oalkosr toko, nwe ke len aksingoul onkosr ke malem sac tuh elos in akoo Tempul nu ke alu.
Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the LORD’s porch. They sanctified the LORD’s house in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.
18 Mwet Levi elos fahkak koanon orekma lalos nu sel Tokosra Hezekiah. Elos fahk, “Kut aknasnasyela tari acn nukewa in Tempul, weang pac loang in orek kisa, tepu neinyen bread mutal, ac kufwen mwe orekma nukewa.
Then they went in to Hezekiah the king within the palace and said, “We have cleansed all the LORD’s house, including the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, and the table of show bread with all its vessels.
19 Kut oayapa folokonma kufwa nukewa ma Tokosra Ahaz el usla ke pacl ma el tuh tia pwaye nu sin LEUM GOD, ac kut sifil akmutalyela nufon. Ma inge nukewa oasr mutun loang lun LEUM GOD.”
Moreover, we have prepared and sanctified all the vessels which King Ahaz threw away in his reign when he was unfaithful. Behold, they are before the LORD’s altar.”
20 Tokosra Hezekiah el sulaklak na pangoneni mwet kol lun siti uh, ac elos tukeni som nu ke Tempul.
Then Hezekiah the king arose early, gathered the princes of the city, and went up to the LORD’s house.
21 Elos srukak cow mukul itkosr, sheep itkosr, sheep fusr itkosr, ac nani itkosr in mwe kisa in aknasnasye ma koluk lun sou in leum uh ac mwet Judah, ac in aknasnasye Tempul. Na tokosra el fahk nu sin mwet tol, su ma in sou lal Aaron, in orekmakin kosro inge in mwe kisa fin loang uh.
They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. He commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the LORD’s altar.
22 Mwet tol elos uniya cow mukul uh meet, na sheep uh toko, na fah sheep fusr, ac elos aksroksrokye loang uh ke srahn ma inge ke kais sie pacl ma kisaiyuk kosro inge.
So they killed the bulls, and the priests received the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They killed the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. They also killed the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Tukun ma inge nukewa elos usla nani uh nu yorol tokosra ac mwet ma wi alu uh, ac elos filiya paolos fin nani inge.
They brought near the male goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly; and they laid their hands on them.
24 Na mwet tol elos uniya nani uh, ac ukuiya srah kac nu fin loang uh tuh in mwe kisa nu ke eela ma koluk lun mwet nukewa, mweyen tokosra el sap tuh mwe kisa firir, ac mwe kisa in eela ma koluk, in orek ke mwet Israel nukewa.
Then the priests killed them, and they made a sin offering with their blood on the altar, to make atonement for all Israel; for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.
25 Tokosra el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Tokosra Davi — ma David el eis sel Gad, mwet liaten lun tokosra, oayapa sel mwet palu Nathan. Tokosra el oakiya acn sin mwet Levi in Tempul, wi harp ac cymbal,
He set the Levites in the LORD’s house with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was from the LORD by his prophets.
26 kain mwe on ma Tokosra David el tuh orekmakin. Mwet tol elos oayapa tu we wi mwe ukuk natulos.
The Levites stood with David’s instruments, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 Hezekiah el sap in mutawauk orek mwe kisa firir, ac ke kisa uh mutawauk, mwet uh on ac kaksak nu sin LEUM GOD, ac mwet srital ke mwe on elos mutawauk ukya mwe ukuk ac mwe on nukewa pac saya.
Hezekiah commanded them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the LORD’s song also began, along with the trumpets and instruments of David king of Israel.
28 Mwet nukewa su muta we elos wi alu, na pusren on lun mwet uh ac mwe on saya orek nwe ke firirla nukewa mwe kisa uh.
All the assembly worshipped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded. All this continued until the burnt offering was finished.
29 Na Tokosra Hezekiah ac mwet nukewa sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin God.
When they had finished offering, the king and all who were present with him bowed themselves and worshipped.
30 Tokosra ac mwet kol lun mutunfacl sac elos fahk nu sin mwet Levi in onkakin on in kaksak ma David el simusla, oayapa ma Asaph mwet palu el simusla. Ouinge mwet nukewa on ke engan lulap ke elos sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praises to the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. They sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.
31 Hezekiah el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Inge ke kowos nasnasla tari, use mwe kisa tuh in mwe sang kulo nu sin LEUM GOD.” Na elos akos, ac kutu selos sifacna use kosro natulos ke insewowo lalos, tuh in mwe kisa firir.
Then Hezekiah answered, “Now you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD. Come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the LORD’s house.” The assembly brought in sacrifices and thank offerings, and as many as were of a willing heart brought burnt offerings.
32 Elos use cow mukul itngoul, sheep siofok, ac sheep fusr luofoko, in mwe kisa firir nu sin LEUM GOD.
The number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred lambs. All these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.
33 Elos oayapa use cow mukul onfoko, ac tolu tausin sheep tuh in mwe kisa ma mwet uh in kang.
The consecrated things were six hundred head of cattle and three thousand sheep.
34 Ke puelac mwet tol in mukena uniya kosro inge kewa, na mwet Levi elos kasrelos nwe ke na tari orekma kac. In pacl sacn oasr pac mwet tol su sifacna aknasnasyalosla. Mwet Levi elos oaru liki mwet tol in oru lumah fal nu ke aknasnas lalos uh.
But the priests were too few, so that they could not skin all the burnt offerings. Therefore their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves, for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
35 Sayen mwe kisa ma fonna firiryak, ma kunen mwet tol in esukak kiris ke ma kisakinyukla ke ma mwet uh kangla, oayapa in okoala wain ma wi na mwe kisa firir utuku. Ouinge alu in Tempul uh sifilpa mutawauk.
Also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings and with the drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the LORD’s house was set in order.
36 Tokosra Hezekiah ac mwet uh elos engan, mweyen God El kasrelos oru ma inge nukewa ke sie pacl na fototo.
Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced because of that which God had prepared for the people; for the thing was done suddenly.
