2 Kings 23
1 The king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
Ary nanirahan’ ny mpanjaka, ka dia vory tany aminy ny loholon’ ny Joda Jerosalema rehetra.
2 The king went up to the LORD’s house, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him—with the priests, the prophets, and all the people, both small and great; and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the LORD’s house.
Dia niakatra ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ny mpanjaka, ary nanaraka azy ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Joda sy ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema mbamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany ary ny vahoaka rehetra, na kely na lehibe; ary novakiny teo anatrehany ny teny rehetra tamin’ ny bokin’ ny fanekena izay hita tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
3 The king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the LORD to walk after the LORD and to keep his commandments, his testimonies, and his statutes with all his heart and all his soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book; and all the people agreed to the covenant.
Ary ny mpanjaka nitsangana teo amin’ ny fitoeran’ andriana, dia nanao fanekena teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah hanaraka Azy sy hitandrina ny lalàny sy ny teni-vavolombelony ary ny didiny amin’ ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra, hankatò ny tenin’ ny fanekena sy izay voasoratra ao amin’ izany boky izany. Ary ny vahoaka rehetra koa dia mba nanaiky ny fanekena.
4 The king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring out of the LORD’s temple all the vessels that were made for Baal, for the Asherah, and for all the army of the sky; and he burned them outside of Jerusalem in the fields of the Kidron, and carried their ashes to Bethel.
Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy an’ i Hilkia mpisoronabe sy ireo mpisorona manarakaraka ary ny mpiandry varavarana hamoaka ny fanaka rehetra izay natao ho an’ i Bala sy Astarta ary ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra hiala amin’ ny tempolin’ i Jehovah; ka nodorany tany ivelan’ i Jerosalema teny amin’ ny saha amoron’ i Kidrona ireny, ary nentiny ho any Betela ny vovony.
5 He got rid of 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 around Jerusalem; those also who burned incense to Baal, to the sun, to the moon, to the planets, and to all the army of the sky.
Ary natsahany koa ny mpisorona amin’ ny andriamani-tsi-izy, izay notendren’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda handoro ditin-kazo manitra eny amin’ ny fitoerana avo tany amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda sy tamin’ ny manodidina an’ i Jerosalema, sy izay nandoro ditin-kazo manitra koa ho an’ i Bala, dia ny masoandro, ary ho an’ ny volana sy ny kintana amin’ ny Zodiaka ary ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra.
6 He brought out the Asherah from the LORD’s house, outside of Jerusalem, to the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and beat it to dust, and cast its dust on the graves of the common people.
Ary ny Aseraha navoakany hiala amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ho any ivelan’ i Jerosalema, ao amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka Kidrona; ary nodorany tao io ka notorotoroiny ho vovoka, ary ny vovony nafafiny teny ambonin’ ny fasam-bahoaka.
7 He broke down the houses of the male shrine prostitutes that were in the LORD’s house, where the women wove hangings for the Asherah.
Ary noravany ny tranon’ ny olona nanolo-tena hijangajanga ho fanompoan-tsampy izay teo amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia ireo nanenoman’ ny vehivavy lay ho an’ i Astarta.
8 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 he broke down the high places of the gates that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
Ary nampaka ny mpisorona rehetra avy tamin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda izy, dia nolotoiny ny fitoerana avo, izay nandoroan’ ny mpisorona ditin-kazo manitra, hatrany Geba ka hatrany Beri-sheba ary noravany ny fitoerana avo tao akaikin’ ny vavahady, dia ilay teo anoloan’ ny vavahadin’ i Josoa, komandin’ ny tanàna, sy ilay teo an-kavia raha miditra amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanana.
9 Nevertheless the priests of the high places did not come up to the LORD’s altar in Jerusalem, but they ate unleavened bread among their brothers.
Fa ny mpisorona tamin’ ny fitoerana avo tsy navela hanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema; nefa nahazo niara-nihinana mofo tsy misy masirasira tamin’ ny rahalahiny ihany izy.
10 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.
Ary nolotoiny koa Tofeta, izay eo amin’ ny lohasahan’ ny taranak’ i Hinoma, mba tsy hisy hampandeha ny zananilahy na ny zananivavy hamaky ny afo ho an’ i Moloka intsony.
11 He took away the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun, at the entrance of the LORD’s house, by the room of Nathan Melech the officer who was in the court; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
Ary ny soavaly izay nohamasinin’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Joda ho an’ ny masoandro ka nataony teo amin’ ny fidirana ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, teo akaikin’ ny efi-tranon’ i Natana-meleka tandapa, izay tao Parvara, dia nesoriny; ary ny kalesin’ ny masoandro nodorany tamin’ ny afo.
12 The king broke down the altars that were on the roof of the upper room of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the LORD’s house, and beat them down from there, and cast their dust into the brook Kidron.
Ary ireo alitara teo an-tampon-trano ambony amin’ ny tranon’ i Ahaza, izay nataon’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny alitara izay nataon’ i Manase tao anatin’ ny kianja roa tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia noravan’ ny mpanjaka ka notorotoroiny, dia nafafiny tany amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka Kidrona ny vovony.
13 The king defiled the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mountain of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon.
Ary nolotoin’ ny mpanjaka ireo fitoerana avo izay teo anoloan’ i Jerosalema, teo amin’ ny ankavanan’ ny tendrombohitra nahitan-doza, dia ireo nataon’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ho an’ i Astarta, fa havetavetan’ ny Sidoniana, sy ho an’ i Kemosy, fahavetavetan’ i Moaba, ary ho an’ i Milkoma, fahavetavetan’ ny taranak’ i Amona.
14 He broke in pieces the pillars, cut down the Asherah poles, and filled their places with men’s bones.
Dia notorotoroiny ny tsangam-baton-tsampy sady nokapainy koa ny Aseraha, ka nofenoiny taolan’ olona ny nitoerany.
15 Moreover the altar that was at Bethel and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he broke down; and he burned the high place and beat it to dust, and burned the Asherah.
Ary ny alitara izay tao Betela sy ny fitoerana avo izay nataon’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, ilay nampanota ny Isiraely, dia noravany koa; ary nodorany ny fitoerana avo ka notorotoroiny ho vovoka, ary nodorany koa ny Aseraha.
16 As Josiah turned himself, he spied the tombs that were there in the mountain; and he sent, and took the bones out of the tombs, and burned them on the altar, and defiled it, according to the LORD’s word which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
Ary nitodika Josia ka nahita ny fasana teny an-tendrombohitra, dia naniraka naka ny taolana tao am-pasana, ary nodorany teo ambonin’ ny alitara ireny nandotoany azy, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah, izay notorin’ ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra.
17 Then he said, “What monument is that which I see?” The men of the city told him, “It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things that you have done against the altar of Bethel.”
Dia hoy izy: Tsangam-baton’ iza itsy hitako itsy? Ary hoy ny mponina tao an-tanana taminy: Fasan’ ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra izay avy tany Joda io, dia ilay nitory izao zavatra nataonao tamin’ ny alitara eto Betela izao.
18 He said, “Let him be! Let no one move his bones.” So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
Ary hoy izy: Aoka itsy; aza misy manetsika ny taolany akory. Dia tsy nokasihiny ny taolany sy ny taolan’ ilay mpaminany avy tany Samaria.
19 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.
Ary ny trano rehetra tamin’ ny fitoerana avo, izay teny amin’ ny tanànan’ i Samaria, izay nataon’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ka nahatonga fahatezerana, dia noravan’ i Josia koa ka nataony araka izay rehetra efa navony tany Betela.
20 He killed all the priests of the high places that were there, on the altars, and burned men’s bones on them; and he returned to Jerusalem.
Ary ny mpisorona rehetra izay teo, dia ny mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo, novonoiny teo ambonin’ ny alitara, sady nandoro taolan’ olona teo koa izy, dia niverina nankany Jerosalema.
21 The king commanded all the people, saying, “Keep the Passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.”
Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy ny vahoaka rehetra hoe: Tandremo ny Paskan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ity fanekena ity.
22 Surely there was not kept such a Passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
Fa tsy nisy Paska notandremana toy izany hatramin’ ny andron’ ny mpitsara izay nitsara ny Isiraely, na tamin’ ny andro rehetra nanjakan’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda;
23 but in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was kept to the LORD in Jerusalem.
fa tamin’ ny taona fahavalo ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Josia mpanjaka no nitandremany izany Paska izany ho an’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema.
24 Moreover, Josiah removed those who had familiar spirits, the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the LORD’s house.
Ary ny nanao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana sy ny terafima sy ny sampy ary ny fahavetavetana rehetra izay hita tany amin’ ny tany Joda sy tany Jerosalema dia nesorin’ i Josia koa, mba hanatanterahana ny tenin’ ny lalàna voasoratra ao amin’ ilay boky hitan’ i Hilkia mpisorona tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
25 There was no king like him before him, who 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; and there was none like him who arose after him.
Ary tsy nisy mpanjaka tahaka azy teo alohany, izay niverina ho amin’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra sy ny heriny rehetra araka ny lalàn’ i Mosesy rehetra; sady tsy nisy tahaka azy intsony niseho tao aoriany.
26 Notwithstanding, the LORD did not turn from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocation with which Manasseh had provoked him.
Nefa Jehovah tsy nitsahatra tamin’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerany mafy, dia ilay fahatezerana nirehitra tamin’ ny Joda noho ny fampahatezerana rehetra izay nampahatezeran’ i Manase Azy.
27 The LORD said, “I will also remove Judah out of my sight, as I have removed Israel; and I will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, ‘My name shall be there.’”
Dia hoy Jehovah: Hesoriko koa ny Joda hiala eo imasoko, tahaka ny nanesorako ny Isiraely, ary holaviko ity tanàna Jerosalema nofidiko ity sy ny trano izay nolazaiko hoe: Ho ao ny anarako.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are not they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ary ny tantaran’ i Josia sisa mbamin’ izay rehetra nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
29 In his days Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates; and King Josiah went against him, but Pharaoh Necoh killed him at Megiddo when he saw him.
Tamin’ ny andro nanjakan’ i Josia no niakaran’ i Farao-neko, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, hankany amoron’ ny ony Eofrata hiady amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria; ary Josia mpanjaka dia nandeha hiady amin’ i Farao. Kanjo nony hitany, dia matiny tao Megido izy.
30 His servants carried him dead in a chariot from Megiddo, brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. The people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s place.
Ary ny fatiny dia napetraky ny mpanompony tao anaty kalesy ka nentiny niala tao Megido ho any Jerosalema, dia naleviny tao amin’ ny fasany. Ary nalain’ ny vahoaka Joahaza, zanak’ i Josia, dia nohosorany ka nampanjakainy handimby an-drainy.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Telo amby roa-polo taona Joahaza fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Hamotala, zanakavavin’ i Jeremia, avy any Libna.
32 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that his fathers had done.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ ny razany.
33 Pharaoh Necoh put him in bonds at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Ary nafatotr’ i Farao-neko tao Ribla any amin’ ny tany Hamata izy, mba tsy hanjakany any Jerosalema, sady nampandoaviny sazy talenta volafotsy zato sy talenta volamena iray ny fanjakana.
34 Pharaoh Necoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the place of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim; but he took Jehoahaz away, and he came to Egypt and died there.
Ary Farao-neko nanendry an’ i Eliakima, zanak’ i Josia, ho mpanjaka hisolo an’ i Josia rainy; ary ny anarany novany ho Joiakima, fa Joahaza kosa dia nentiny ho any Egypta ka maty tany.
35 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, from everyone according to his assessment, to give it to Pharaoh Necoh.
Ary ny volafotsy sy ny volamena dia nomen’ i Joiakima an’ i Farao; kanefa notombanany avokoa ny olona rehetra araka ny didin’ i Farao, ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia samy nampandoaviny vola araka ny tombany avy, mba homeny an’ i Farao-neko.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zebidah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
Dimy amby roa-polo taona Joiakima, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary nanjaka iraika ambin’ ny folo taona tany Jerosalema izy. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Zebida, zanakavavin’ i Pedaia, avy any Romaha.
37 He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that his fathers had done.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka izay nataon’ ny razany.
