2 Tantara 34
1 Valo taoñe t’Iosià te namototse nifehe, le nifehe telopolo taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao;
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years.
2 naho nanao ze fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà naho nañavelo an-tsata’ i Davide rae’e vaho tsy nivike mb’ am-pitàn-kavana ndra havia.
And he did that which was right in the sight of Yhwh, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
3 Fa amy taom-paha-valo’ i fifehea’ey, ie mbe tora’e, le niorotse nipay an’ Andrianañahare’ i Davide rae’e; le amy taom-paha-folo-ro’ambi’ey ty namotora’e fañondrok’ am’ Iehodà naho am’ Ierosalaime ze tamboho naho Asere naho sare-sokitse vaho sare-trinanake.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.
4 Rinoba’ iareo añatrefa’e o kitrlem-baaleo, le finira’e o sare’ i àndroy ambone’ iareoo; le dinemo’e ho deboke o Asereo naho o sare-sokitseo naho o sare trinanakeo vaho nabobò’e an-kibori’ o nisoroñe ama’eo.
And they brake down the altars of Baalim in his presence; and the images, that were on high above them, he cut down; and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images, he brake in pieces, and made dust of them, and strowed it upon the graves of them that had sacrificed unto them.
5 Le finorototo’e amo kitreli’eo ty taola’ o mpisoroñeo vaho nondrohe’e t’Iehoda naho Ierosalaime.
And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.
6 Nanoe’e zay ka o rova’ i Menasè naho i Efraime naho i Simeoneo pake Naftalý añe naho o tanan-taolo nañohoke iareoo.
And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even unto Naphtali, with their mattocks round about.
7 Le rinoba’e o kitrelio naho dinemo’e ho deboke o Asereo naho o sare-sokitseo naho fonga finira’e o sare’ i àndroy an-tane’ Israele iabio vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem.
8 Ie amy taom-paha-folo-valo’ ambi’ i fifehea’ey, ie fa nañalio i taney naho i anjombay, le nirahe’e mb’amy Safane ana’ i Atsaliaho naho i Maaseià bei’ i rovay naho Ioake ana’ Ioakaze mpamolily, ty hañamboatse ty anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañahare.
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of Yhwh his God.
9 Le nimb’ amy Kilkià mpisorom-bey mb’eo iereo nanese o drala nampiziliheñe añ’ anjomban’ Añahareo, ze natonto’ o nte-Levy mpiamben-dalañeo am-pità’ i Menasè naho amy Efraime naho amo sehanga’ Israele iabio naho amy Iehodà miharo amy Beniamine iaby vaho amo mpimoneñe e Ierosalaimeo.
And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem.
10 Le natolo’ iereo am-pità’ o mpitoloñe nisary añ’ anjomba’ Iehovào; vaho natolo’ iereo amo mpamboatse nifanehak’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày hanosoha’e naho hampisomontie’e i anjombay;
And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of Yhwh, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of Yhwh, to repair and amend the house:
11 natolo’ iereo amo mpandranjio naho amo mpamboatseo, hikaloa’ iareo vato vinàñe naho hatae ho famitrañañe naho handranjiañe sàzoke o traño narotsa’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodao.
Even to the artificers and builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
12 Nifanehak’ am-pigahiñañe ondatio; le nisary iareo t’Ikate naho i Obadià, nte’ Levy amo ana’ i Merario; le niaolo iareo t’i Zekarià naho i Mesolame anan’ te-Kohate naho ze hene nte-Levy naha-fititike sabo.
And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of musick.
13 Nisarie’ iereo ka o mpijiny kilankañeo naho niaolo amy ze fitoloñañe amy ze karazan’ asa iaby; le nimpanokitse naho mpifehe vaho mpañambeñe ty ila’ o nte-Levio.
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that wrought the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.
14 Aa ie nakare’ iereo i drala nampiziliheñe añ’anjomba’ Iehovày, le nioni’ i Kilkià, mpisoroñe ty boke Hà’ Iehovà tinolo’ i Mosè.
And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of Yhwh, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of Yhwh given by Moses.
15 Le hoe ty nisaontsia’ i Kilkià amy Safane, mpanokitse, Fa nitreako añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao i boke Hàkey vaho natolo’ i Kilkià amy Safane i bokey.
And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Yhwh. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.
16 Le nendese’ i Safane amy mpanjakay i bokey vaho nanovon-tsaontsy amy mpanjakay ami’ty hoe; Fa nihenefa’ o mpitoro’o iabio ze nafantok’ am’iereo.
And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they do it.
17 Le fa natonto’ iareo i drala nitendrek’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày vaho fa natolo’ iareo am-pità’ o mpisario naho am-pità’ o mpitoloñeo.
And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of Yhwh, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen.
18 Le nitaroñe’ i Safane amy mpanjakay ty hoe: Nanolotse boke ahy t’i Kilkià mpisoroñe. Vaho vinaki’ i Safane añatrefa’ i mpanjakaio.
Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
19 Ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty enta’ i Hake, le niriate’e o siki’eo.
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes.
20 Le linili’ i mpanjakay t’i Kilkià naho i Akikame ana’ i Safane naho i Abdone, ana’ i Mikà naho i Safane mpanokitse naho i Asaià mpitoro’ i mpanjakay, ami’ty hoe,
And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king’s, saying,
21 Akia, añontaneo Iehovà ho ahy naho ho amy ze sisa’ Israele naho Iehoda, o tsara’ i boke nitendrekeio; fa ra’elahy ty haviñera’ Iehovà hidoandoañe amantika, amy te tsy nitana’ o roaentikañeo ty tsara’ Iehovà, hanoa’ iareo ze hene sinokitse amy bokey.
Go, enquire of Yhwh for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of Yhwh that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of Yhwh, to do after all that is written in this book.
22 Aa le nimb’ amy Koldà mpitoky (mpimoneñe amy efe’ Ierosalaime faharoe ao), vali’ i Salome ana’ i Tokate, ana’ i Kasrà mpamandroñe i fañajan-tsaroñey, t’i Kilkià naho i tinendre’ i mpanjakay rey nitaroñe izay.
And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; ( now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college: ) and they spake to her to that effect.
23 Le hoe re am’ iereo: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, taroño am’ indaty nañitrik’ anahareo amakoy:
And she answered them, Thus saith Yhwh God of Israel, Tell ye the man that sent you to me,
24 Hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo, hametsahako hankàñe ty toetse toy naho o mpimone’eo, le ze hene fatse sinokitse amy boke vinaki’ iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjaka’ Iehodaiy;
Thus saith Yhwh, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah:
25 amy t’ie nifary ahy naho nañemboke aman-drahare ila’e; toly ndra hadoañe ami’ty toetse toy ty habosehako vaho tsy hakipe.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.
26 Fe i mpanjaka’ Iehodà nañirak’ anahareo hañontane am’ Iehovày, ty hanoe’ areo ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: Ty amo tsara vinaki’oo,
And as for the king of Judah, who sent you to enquire of Yhwh, so shall ye say unto him, Thus saith Yhwh God of Israel concerning the words which thou hast heard;
27 kanao nitrotrotrotro añ’arofo rehe naho nirè-bathe añatrefan’ Añahare, ihe nijanjiñe i tsaraeñe ty toetse toy zay, naho ty amo mpimone’eo naho nidrakadrakak’ amako naho nandria-tsaroñe vaho nirovetse añ’ atrefako, le tsinanoko, hoe t’Iehovà.
Because thine heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard thee also, saith Yhwh.
28 Oniño t’ie havoriko aman-droae’o le hasese mb’an-kibori’o an-kanintsiñe vaho tsy ho isam-pihaino’o ze fonga hankàñe hafetsako ami’ty toetse toy naho amo mpimone’eo. Aa le nahere’ iareo amy mpanjakay i tsaray.
Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.
29 Aa le nampañitrike i mpanjakay vaho natonto’e iaby o androanavi’ Iehoda naho Ierosalaimeo.
Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 Le nimb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày mb’eo i mpanjakay naho ondati’ Iehoda iabio naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo naho o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio naho ze fonga ondaty, ty bey naho ty kede; le vinaki’e an-dravembia’ iareo o hene tsara’ i bokem-pañina nizoeñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày.
And the king went up into the house of Yhwh, and all the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people, great and small: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of Yhwh.
31 Nijohañe amy toe’ey i mpanjakay, le nifañina añatrefa’ Iehovà, t’ie hañavelo am-pañorihañe Iehovà naho hambenañe o lili’eo naho o fitaroña’eo naho o fañè’eo, an-kaàmpon’ arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova vaho hanao o tsaram-pañina sinokitse amy bokeio.
And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before Yhwh, to walk after Yhwh, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant which are written in this book.
32 Le nampiongahe’e ze hene nizoeñe e Ierosalaime naho e Beniamine ao. Aa le norihe’ o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo i fañinan’ Añahare, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareoy.
And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 Le fonga nafaha’ Iosià ty haloloañe amy ze hene tane’ o ana’ Israeleo, le songa nampitoroñe’e o nizoeñe e Israeleo, hitoroñe Iehovà Andrianañahare, vaho tsy nivik’ amy fañorihañe Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoy amo hene andro’eo iereo.
And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve Yhwh their God. And all his days they departed not from following Yhwh, the God of their fathers.
