2 Mpanjaka 23
1 Nampañitrike i mpanjakay, le natontoñ’ ama’e ze hene androanavi’ Iehoda naho Ierosalaimeo.
And the king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
2 Le nionjomb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo i mpanjakay rekets’ ondati’ Iehoda iabio naho ze fonga mpimone’ Ierosalaime naho mpisoroñe naho mpitoky, naho ze kila ondaty, ty kede naho ty bey, vaho hene vinaki’e an-dravembia’ iareo ze tsara amy bokem-pañina nitendrek’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày.
And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.
3 Nijohañe ami’ty fahañe eo i mpanjakay naho nifañina añatrefa’ Iehovà, t’ie hañavelo am-pañorihañe Iehovà naho hiambeñe o lili’eo naho o taro’eo vaho o fañè’eo añ’ ampon’ arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova, hahatafetera’e o tsara’ i fañina sinokitse amy bokeio; le niantofa’ o fonga ondatio i fañinay.
And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
4 Linili’ i mpanjakay amy zao t’i Kilkià mpisoroñe naho o mpisoroñe am-pirimboñañe faha-roe naho o mpitan-dalambeio, ty hañakara’ iareo an-kivoho’ Iehovà ze fanake nanoeñe amy Baale naho an-tsamposampo naho amy valobohòn-dikerañey; le niforototoe’e alafe’ Ierosalaime an-kivo’ i Kidrone ao vaho nendese’e mb’e Betele añe ty laveno’e.
And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them to Bethel.
5 Nafotsa’e iaby o mpisorom-pahasive noriza’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodao hañenga amy ze toets’ abo amo rova’ Iehodào, naho amo toetse mañohoke Ierosalaimeo; le o nañenga amy Baale, amy àndroy, amy volañey, amo vasiañe mifamorohotseo, vaho amy valobohòn-dikerañeio.
And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
6 Naaka’e añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’ alafe’ Ierosalaime mb’eo, mb’an toraha’ i Kidroney o Aserào naho finorototo’e an-toraha’ i Kidrone ey naho dinemodemo’e ho bo vaho nafitse’e amo kibori’ o ana’ ondatio i debokey.
And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, to the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof on the graves of the children of the people.
7 Narotsa’e o kibohom-borololo añ’ila’ i anjomba’ Iehovày amy fanenoñan-drakemba o tèmen’ Aseràoy.
And he broke down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove.
8 Fonga nakare’e amo rova’ Iehodao o mpisoroñeo naho nileore’e o toets’ abo nañemboha’ o mpisoroñeo mifototse e Geba pake Beeresebà vaho narotsa’e o toets’ abo am-pimoahañe i lalambei’ Iehosoà bein-tanañeio, am-pitàn-kavia an-dalambei’ i rovaio.
And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba, and broke down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
9 ie amy zao tsy nionjom-b’ amy kitreli’ Iehovà e Ierosalaimey añe o mpisoron-toets’aboo, f’ie nitrao-pikama mofo tsi-aman-dalivae amo rahalahi’eo.
Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brothers.
10 Nileore’e ty Topete, am-bavatane’ i ana’ i Hinomey, tsy hampirangà’ ondaty añ’afo’ i Moleke ao ty ana-dahi’e ndra ty anak’ ampela’e.
And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
11 Nafaha’e o soavala noriza’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodao amy àndroy, am-pimoahañe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà, marine’ ty efe’ i Matane-meleke, vosie, am-pariparitse ey, vaho finorototo’e añ’ afo o sareten’ androo.
And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12 Le narotsa’ i mpanjakay i kitrely an-tafo’ i efetse ambone’ i Ahkaze namboare’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy naho o kitreli’ i Menasè niranjie’e an-kiririsa roe’ i anjomba’ Iehovà eio le dinemodemo’e vaho nahifi’e an-torahan-Kidrone ao ty debo’e.
And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king beat down, and broke them down from there, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
13 Le nileore’ i mpanjakay o tamboho aolo’ Ierosalaime am-pitàn-kavanan-kaboan-kaleorañeo, i namboare’ i Selomò mpanjaka’ Israele amy Astorete, ty haloloa’ o nte-Tsidoneo, naho amy Kemose, ty haloloa’ o nte-Moabeo vaho amy Milkome, ty haloloa’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.
14 Dinoro-demo’e o saren-drahao naho finira’e o hazomangao, vaho natsafe’e taola’ ondaty o toe’eo.
And he broke in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Le i kitrely e Beteley, naho i toets’ abo’ Iarovame namboare’ i ana’ i Nebate nampanan-kakeo Israeley; fonga narotsa’e i kitreliy naho i toets’ aboy, le finorototo’e i toets’ aboy, naho dinemodemo’e ho deboke vaho hinotomomo’e i Aserày.
Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he broke down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove.
16 Ie nitolike t’Iosià, le niisa’e o kibory an-kaboañeio naho nampañitrife’e naho nakare’e amy kibory rey o taolañeo vaho finorototo’e ambone’ i kitreliy handeora’e aze, hambañe amy tsara’ Iehovà tsinei’ indatin’ Añahare nikoike irezaiy.
And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchers that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchers, and burned them on the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.
17 Aa hoe re, Lona’ ia o treakoo? Le hoe ondati’ i rovaio ama’e: Kibori’ indatin’ Añahare niheo mb’etoa boak’ Iehoda nitsey o raha anoe’o amy kitreli’ i Beteleioy.
Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulcher of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that you have done against the altar of Bethel.
18 Le hoe re: Adono; ko apo’ areo ho tsiborè’ ondaty o taola’eo. Aa le nado’ iareo o taola’eo, rekets’ o taola’ i mpitoky boake Someroneio.
And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
19 Nafaha’ Iosià iaby o anjomban-toets’ abo an-drova’ i Somerone namboare’ o mpanjaka’ Israeleo nampiviñetse Iehovào, le hene nanoe’e am’ iereo i nanoe’e e Beteley.
And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.
20 Fonga zinevo’e ambone kitrely eo o mpisoron-toets’ abo taoo naho noroa’e ambone’ iereo ty taola’ ondaty; vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there on the altars, and burned men’s bones on them, and returned to Jerusalem.
21 Linili’ i mpanjakay o hene ondatio, ami’ty hoe: Ambeno i fihelañ’ ambone’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oy, i sinokitse amy bokem-pañinaiy.
And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.
22 Aa le mboe lia’e tsy nanoeñe ty fihelañ’ ambone manahake zay boak’ añ’andro’ o mpizaka nizaka Israeleo ndra amo androm-panjaka’ Israeleo naho o mpanjaka’ Iehodào;
Surely there was not held such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
23 amy taom-paha-folo-valo’ ambi’ Iosià mpanjakay ty nañambenañe i fihelañ’ ambone am’ Iehovày e Ierosalaime ao.
But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was held to the LORD in Jerusalem.
24 Fonga nafaha’ Iosià ze mpandrombo angatse naho jiny naho terafime naho hazomanga vaho ze hene haloloañe nizoeñe an-tane’ Iehoda naho e Ierosalaime ao hamente ty enta’ i Hake sinokitse amy boke nioni’ i Kilkià mpisoroñey añ’anjomba’ Iehovà aoiy.
Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
25 Le tsy eo ty nañirinkiriñe aze amy ze mpanjaka niaolo aze, ie nitolik’ am’ Iehovà an-kaampon’ arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova vaho an-kene haozara’e, ty amy Hà’ i Mosey; ie tsy amam-panonjohy nitroatse nanahak’ aze.
And like to him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
26 Fe tsy nitolik’ amy fifombo’e niforoforoy t’Iehovà, amy haviñera’e nisolebotse am’ Iehodà, ty amo fonga sigý nisigihe’ i Menasè Azeo.
Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him with.
27 Le hoe t’Iehovà, hafahako am-pahatreavako t’Iehoda, manahake ty nañafahako Israele vaho hahifiko añe ty rova jinoboko toy naho i anjomba nataoko ty hoe: Ho ao i añarakoiy.
And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
28 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iosià ila’eo, o raha nanoe’e iabio, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 Ie tañ’ andro’e le nionjo haname ty mpanjaka’ i Asore t’i Parò-Nekò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime mb’an-tsaka Perate añe; nomb’ ama’e mb’eo t’Ioase, mpanjaka, fe vata’e niisa’e le zinevo’e e Megidò añe.
In his days Pharaohnechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
30 Nitakone’ o mpitoro’eo an-tsarete i fañova’ey, nendese’ iereo mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo vaho nalentek’ an-kibori’e ao. Rinambe ondati’ i taneio t’Iehoakaze, ie ty noriza’ iareo ho mpanjaka handimbe an-drae’e.
And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulcher. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s stead.
31 Roapolo-taoñe telo’ amby t’Iehoakaze te niorotse nifehe, le nifeleke telo volañe e Ierosalaime ao; i Kamotale, ana’ Irm-meà nte-Libnà, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32 Nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re manahake o fonga satan-droae’eo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 Le vinaho’ i Parò-Neko e Ribà an-tane Kamate añe re, tsy hameleha’e t’Ierosalaime; le sinaze’e talenta zato volafoty naho talenta volamena raike i taney.
And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
34 Le nanoe’ i Parò-Neko mpanjaka t’i Eliakime ana’ Iosia handimbe an-drae’e Iosia naho novae’e ho Iehoiakime ty tahina’e naho nendese’e mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo t’Iehoakaze, vaho nihomake añe.
And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there.
35 Natolo’ Iehoiakime amy Parò i volafoty naho volamenay, le nangalà’e haba i taney ty amy lili’ i Paròy; rinambe’e am’ ondati’ i taneio i volafoty naho volamenay, sambe ty amy vili-loha’ey, hanolotse aze amy Parò-Neko.
And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his taxation, to give it to Pharaohnechoh.
36 Roapolo-taoñe lime amby t’Iehoiakime te niorotse nifehe; vaho nifeleke folo-taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao; i Zebidà, ana’ i Pedaià nte-Romà, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 Le nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re manahake o satan-droae’eo.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
