2 Chronicles 34
1 Josiah was eight years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
Josiah el yac oalkosr ke el mutawauk in tokosra, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac tolngoul sie.
2 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, and he walked in the ways of his father David. He did not turn away, neither to the right, nor to the left.
El oru ma su LEUM GOD El insewowo kac, ac fahsrna tukun srikasrak lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal, ac arulana karinganang in akos ma sap nukewa lun God.
3 Now in the eighth year of his reign, when he was still a boy, he began to seek the God of his father David. And in the twelfth year after he had begun to reign, he cleansed Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the sacred groves, and the idols, and the graven images.
In yac se akoalkosr ma Josiah el tokosra, ke el srakna mwet fusr, el mutawauk in alu nu sin God lal Tokosra David, papa matu tumal. Tukun yac akosr el mutawauk in kunausla acn in alu lun mwet pegan, ac ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah, ac ma sruloala nukewa saya.
4 And in his sight, they destroyed the altars of the Baals, and they demolished the idols which had been set upon them. And then he cut down the sacred groves and crushed the graven images. And he scattered the fragments upon the tombs of those who had been accustomed to immolate to them.
El sap pac mwet lal in fukulya loang ma mwet uh alu nu sel Baal we, ac kunausla loang in kisakin mwe keng su oan apkuran nu ke ma inge. Elos tuktukya ma sruloala kacl Asherah ac ma sruloala nukewa saya, nwe ke mokutkuti, na elos sisalik kutkut inge nu fin kulyuk lun mwet su tuh orek kisa nu ke ma inge.
5 And after that, he burned the bones of the priests upon the altars of the idols. And so did he cleanse Judah and Jerusalem.
El esukak srin mwet tol lun mwet pegan fin loang uh, yen elos tuh alu we. Ke el oru ma inge nukewa, el oru tuh acn Judah ac Jerusalem in sifilpa nasnasla.
6 Then too, in the cities of Manasseh, and of Ephraim, and of Simeon, even to Naphtali, he overturned everything.
El oru ouiya inge in siti saya pac, ac in acn nukewa ma akkolukyeyukla in acn Manasseh, Ephraim, ac Simeon, fahla nwe ke sun acn Naphtali in acn epang.
7 And when he had destroyed the altars and the sacred groves, and had broken the idols to pieces, and when all the profane shrines had been demolished from the entire land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem.
In acn nukewa ke Tokosrai Epang, el fukulya loang ac ma sruloala kacl Asherah, ac tuktukya ma sruloala nwe ke mokutkuti, ac lipikya loang lun mwe keng. Na el folokla nu Jerusalem.
8 And so, in the eighteenth year of his reign, having now cleansed the land and the temple of the Lord, he sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah, the ruler of the city, and Joah, the son of Joahaz, the historian, to repair the house of the Lord his God.
In yac se aksingoul oalkosr ma Tokosra Josiah el leum, tukun el kunausla alu lun mwet pegan in tuh aknasnasyela facl sac ac Tempul, el supwala mwet tolu in akwoyela Tempul lun LEUM GOD. Inelos pa Shaphan wen natul Azaliah, Maaseiah governor lun acn Jerusalem, ac Joah wen natul Joahaz, sie mwet pwapa fulat.
9 And they went to Hilkiah, the high priest. And having accepted from him the money which had been brought into the house of the Lord, and which the Levites and porters had gathered together from Manasseh, and Ephraim, and the entire remnant of Israel, and also from all of Judah, and Benjamin, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Mani ma mwet Levi su topang ke mutunpot elos eis in Tempul, itukyang nu sel Hilkiah, mwet Tol Fulat. (Mani inge ma orekeni sin mwet Ephraim ac Manasseh, ac mwet in acn saya ke Tokosrai Epang, oayapa sin mwet Judah, mwet Benjamin, ac mwet Jerusalem.)
10 they delivered it into the hands of those who were in charge of the workers in the house of the Lord, so that they might repair the temple, and restore whatever was weak.
Na mani inge itukyang nu sin mwet tolu ma kol mwet su orekma in akwoyela Tempul, ac elos sang nu sin
11 And they gave it to the artisans and the stoneworkers, so that they might buy stones from the quarries, and wood for the joints of the building and for the upper floors of the houses, which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
kamtu ac mwet musa in moli eot ac sak ma orekmakinyuk in akwoyela lohm nukewa ma tokosra lun Judah fuhlela nwe kulawi.
12 And they did everything faithfully. Now the overseers of the workers were Jahath and Obadiah, from the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, from the sons of Kohath, who were supervising the work. All were Levites who knew how to play musical instruments.
Mwet orekma inge elos arulana suwohs ac pwaye ke ma elos oru. Mwet Levi akosr pa kol orekma se inge: Jahath ac Obadiah ke sou lal Merari, ac Zechariah ac Meshullam ke sou lal Kohath. (Mwet Levi nukewa arulana pisrla ke srital mwe on.)
13 Truly, scribes and teachers, from among the Levites who were porters, were over those who were carrying burdens for various uses.
Kutu mwet Levi elos mwet kol ke wiwa kako ac karingin mwet su oru kutu pac orekma saya, ac kutu selos mwet sim ac mwet topang mutunpot uh.
14 And when they carried out the money that had been brought into the temple of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest found the book of the law of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
Ke pacl se utukla mani liki iwen filma, Hilkiah el konauk book in Ma Sap lun LEUM GOD— Ma Sap su God El tuh sang nu sel Moses.
15 And he said to Shaphan, the scribe: “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And he delivered it to him.
El fahk nu sel Shaphan, “Nga konauk book in Ma Sap se inge in Tempul,” ac el sang book sac nu sel Shaphan,
16 Then he took the volume to the king, and he reported to him, saying: “Behold, everything that you entrusted to your servants is completed.
ac Shaphan el usla nu yurin tokosra ac fahk, “Kut orala tari ma nukewa ma kom sapkin.
17 They have melted together the silver that was found in the house of the Lord. And it has been given to the overseers of the artisans and craftsmen for various works.
Kut usla mani ma orekeni oan in Tempul, ac sang nu sin mwet orekma ac mwet kol lalos.”
18 After this, Hilkiah the priest gave to me this book.” And when he had read it in the presence of the king,
Na el sifilpa fahk, “Book se pa Hilkiah el se nu sik inge.” Ac el riti nu sin tokosra.
19 and he had heard the words of the law, he tore his garments.
Ke tokosra el lohng ma ritiyuk in book sac, el oela ac seya nuknuk lal.
20 And he instructed Hilkiah, and Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Abdon, the son of Micah, and also Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah, the servant of the king, saying:
Ac el sapla nu sel Hilkiah, ac Ahikam wen natul Shaphan, ac Abdon wen natul Micaiah, ac Shaphan mwet sim inkul lun tokosra, ac Asaiah mwet tutafpo fulat lal tokosra, ac fahk ouinge:
21 “Go, and pray to the Lord for me, and for the remnant of Israel and Judah, concerning all the words of this book, which has been found. For the great fury of the Lord has rained down upon us, because our fathers did not keep the words of the Lord, to do all that has been written in this volume.”
“Kowos som inek ac inen mwet su srakna muta in Israel ac Judah, ac siyuk sin LEUM GOD lah mea kalmen mwe luti su oan in book se inge. LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sesr, mweyen mwet matu lasr elos tia akos kas lun LEUM GOD, ac elos tia oru ma book se inge fahk in orek.”
22 Therefore, Hilkiah, and those who had been sent with him by the king, went to Huldah, the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, the keeper of the vestments. She was living in Jerusalem, in the second part. And they spoke to her the words which we explained above.
Ke sripen sap se lal tokosra inge, Hilkiah ac mwet welul elos som lolngok nu sin mutan palu se pangpang Huldah, su muta in acn sasu in Jerusalem. (Mukul tumal pa Shallum wen natul Tikvah, wen natul Harhas, ac el pa liyaung nuknuk mutal in Tempul.) Elos aketeya nu sin mutan sac ke ma sikyak,
23 And she responded to them: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Tell the man who sent you to me:
na el fahk nu selos mu elos in folokla nu yurin tokosra ac sang
24 Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead in evils over this place, and over its inhabitants, with all the curses that have been written in this book, which they have read before the king of Judah.
kas lun LEUM GOD inge nu sel, su fahk, “Nga fah kalyei Jerusalem ac mwet nukewa we ke mwe selnga su simla ke book se ma ritiyuk nu sel tokosra.
25 For they have abandoned me, and they have sacrificed to foreign gods, so that they provoked me to wrath by all the works of their hands. Therefore, my fury will rain down upon this place, and it will not be extinguished.
Elos ngetla likiyu ac orek kisa nu sin god saya, ac ouinge elos akkasrkusrakyeyu ke ma nukewa elos orala. Kasrkusrak luk tayak lain Jerusalem, na ac fah tia kunla.
26 To the king of Judah, who sent you to petition before the Lord, so shall you speak: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Since you listened to the words of this volume,
Ac nu sel tokosra, pa inge ma nga, LEUM GOD lun Israel, ac fahk: Kom tuh lohng ma simla in book sac,
27 and your heart was softened, and you humbled yourself in the sight of God concerning these things which have been said against this place and against the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and since, revering my face, you have torn your garments, and have wept before me: I also have heeded you, says the Lord.
ac kom auliyak ac akpusiselye kom ye mutuk. Kom salik nuknuk lom ac tung ke kom lohng ma nga akola in oru in kalyei Jerusalem ac mwet we. Nga lohng pre lom,
28 For now I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be brought into your sepulcher in peace. Neither shall your eyes see all the evil that I will lead in, over this place and over its inhabitants.” And so they took back to the king all that she had said.
ouinge mwe kalya se su nga akoo nu sin Jerusalem, ac fah tia orek nwe ke tukun kom misa. Nga fah lela tuh kom in misa in misla.” Na mwet inge us kas inge ac folokla nu yorol Tokosra Josiah.
29 And he, calling together all those greater by birth of Judah and Jerusalem,
Tokosra Josiah el pangon mwet kol nukewa lun Judah ac Jerusalem,
30 ascended to the house of the Lord, united with all the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the priests and the Levites, and all the people, from the least even to the greatest. And in their hearing, in the house of the Lord, the king read all the words of the volume.
ac elos tukeni welul som nu ke Tempul. Mwet tol ac mwet Levi ac mwet nukewa saya, mwet kasrup ac mwet sukasrup oana sie, elos nukewa wi som. Ye mutun mwet inge nukewa, tokosra el riti book in wuleang sac nufon, ma tuh koneyukyak in Tempul.
31 And standing up at his tribunal, he struck a covenant before the Lord, so that he would walk after him, and would keep his precepts and testimonies and justifications, with his whole heart and with his whole soul, and so that he would do the things that were written in that volume, which he had read.
El tu ke sru soko ma sriyukla nu sin tokosra, ac orala sie wulela yurin LEUM GOD, in aksol ac karinganang ma sap ac oakwuk lal ke insial kewa ac ke ngunal kewa, ac in moulkin ma nukewa ma oan ke wulela sac, oana ke simla in book sac.
32 Also, concerning this, he bound by oath all who had been found in Jerusalem and Benjamin. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem acted in accord with the covenant of the Lord, the God of their fathers.
El oru tuh mwet Benjamin ac mwet nukewa saya su wi tukeni in Jerusalem, elos in wulela tuh elos fah karinganang wuleang se inge. Ouinge mwet Jerusalem elos akos ma nukewa ma oakwuki ke wuleang se ma elos orala yurin God lun papa tumalos.
33 Therefore, Josiah took away all the abominations from all the regions of the sons of Israel. And he caused all who were remaining in Israel to serve the Lord their God. During all his days, they did not withdraw from the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Tokosra Josiah el kunausla nufon ma sruloala fohkfok ma oan in acn lun mwet Israel. Na ke lusen pacl el moul, el sapkin mwet uh in kulansupu LEUM GOD lun papa matu tumalos.
