2 Chronicles 30

1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel, and Iudah, and also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord at Ierusalem, to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Hesekaia ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē mo Siuta, pea tohi ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi tohi foki ki ʻIfalemi mo Manase, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ki he fale ʻo Sihova ʻi Selūsalema, ke fai ʻa e [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.

2 And the King and his princes and all the Congregation had taken counsel in Ierusalem to keepe the Passeouer in the second moneth.

He naʻe fakakaukau ʻe he tuʻi mo hono ngaahi houʻeiki, mo e fakataha kotoa ʻi Selūsalema, ke fai ʻa e [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina.

3 For they could not keepe it at this time, because there were not Priests enow sanctified, neither was the people gathered to Ierusalem.

He naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai ia ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia koeʻuhi naʻe teʻeki ai fakaʻosi ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ke lahi ki ai, pea naʻe teʻeki ai fakakātoa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kakai ki Selūsalema.

4 And the thing pleased the King, and all the Congregation.

Pea naʻe fiemālie ai ʻae tuʻi pea mo e kakai fakataha kotoa pē.

5 And they decreed to make proclamation throughout all Israel from Beersheba euen to Dan, that they should come to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel at Ierusalem: for they had not done it of a great time, as it was written.

Pea naʻa nau tuʻutuʻuni ʻae fono ke fanongonongo kalanga ʻi ʻIsileli kotoa pē, mei Peasipa ki Tani, koeʻuhi ke nau haʻu ke fai ʻa e [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi Selūsalema: he naʻe ʻikai te nau fai ia ʻo fuoloa ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe tohi.

6 So the postes went with letters by the commission of the King, and his princes, thorowout all Israel and Iudah, and with the commandement of the King, saying, Ye children of Israel, turne againe vnto the Lord God of Abraham, Izhak, and Israel, and he will returne to the remnant that are escaped of you, out of ye hands of the Kings of Asshur.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae kau ʻave tohi mo e ngaahi tohi mei he tuʻi mo hono houʻeiki ki he potu kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siuta, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae tuʻi ʻo pehē, “ʻAe ngaahi fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mou toe tafoki kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake, mo ʻIsileli pea ʻe tafoki mai ia kiate kimoutolu ʻoku toe, ʻakimoutolu kuo hao mei he nima ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia.

7 And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the Lord God of their fathers: and therfore he made them desolate, as ye see.

Pea ʻoua naʻa mou hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea hangē ko homou ngaahi kāinga, ʻaia naʻe fai angahala kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he malaʻia, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku mou mamata ki ai.

8 Be not ye now stiffenecked like your fathers, but giue the hand to the Lord, and come into his sanctuarie, which he hath sanctified for euer, and serue the Lord your God, and the fiercenesse of his wrath shall turne away from you.

Pea ko eni ke ʻoua naʻa mou kia kekeva, ʻo hangē ko hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, kae tukuange ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova, pea hū ki hono fale nofoʻanga, ʻaia naʻe fakatapui ke taʻengata: pea tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke tafoki hono houhau lahi meiate kimoutolu.

9 For if ye returne vnto the Lord, your brethren and your children shall finde mercy before them that led them captiues, and they shall returne vnto this lande: for the Lord your God is gracious and mercifull, and will not turne away his face from you, if ye conuert vnto him.

He kapau te mou toe tafoki kia Sihova, ʻe ʻilo ʻe homou ngaahi kāinga mo hoʻomou fānau ʻae angaʻofa ʻi he ʻao ʻokinautolu naʻe taki ʻo fakapōpulaʻi ʻakinautolu, ko ia te nau toe haʻu ai ki he fonua ni: he ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻoku angalelei ia mo angaʻofa, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne kalofaki hono fofonga meiate kimoutolu, ʻo kapau te mou tafoki kiate ia.”

10 So the postes went from citie to citie thorow the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, euen vnto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorne, and mocked them.

Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ʻae kau ʻave tohi mei he kolo ki he kolo ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIfalemi mo Manase, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki Sepuloni: ka naʻa nau kata manuki kiate kinautolu, pea taukae ʻakinautolu.

11 Neuerthelesse diuers of Asher, and Manasseh, and of Zebulun submitted themselues, and came to Ierusalem.

Ka naʻe ai ʻae niʻihi ʻi ʻAseli mo Manase, mo Sepuloni, naʻa nau fakavaivai ʻakinautolu, pea haʻu ki Selūsalema.

12 And the hand of God was in Iudah, so that he gaue them one heart to doe the commandement of the King, and of the rulers, according to the worde of the Lord.

Pea naʻe ʻi Siuta foki ʻae nima ʻoe ʻOtua ke foaki kiate kinautolu ʻae loto taha ke fai ʻae fekau ʻae tuʻi mo e houʻeiki, ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova.

13 And there assembled to Ierusalem much people, to keepe the feast of ye vnleauened bread in the second moneth, a very great assemblie.

Pea naʻe fakakātoa ʻi Selūsalema ʻae fuʻu kakai lahi ke fai ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina, ko e fakataha lahi ʻaupito.

14 And they arose, and tooke away the altars that were in Ierusalem: and all those for incense tooke they away, and cast them into the brooke Kidron.

Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hake ʻo fetuku ʻo liʻaki ʻae ngaahi feilaulauʻanga naʻe ʻi Selūsalema, pea nau ʻave ke mamaʻo ʻae ngaahi feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa namu kakala, ʻo liʻaki ia ki he vaitafe ko Kitiloni.

15 Afterwarde they slewe the Passeouer the fourteenth day of the seconde moneth: and the Priestes and Leuites were ashamed, and sanctified themselues, and brought the burnt offrings into the house of the Lord.

Pea naʻa nau toki tāmateʻi ʻa e [manu ʻoe ]Lakaatu ʻi hono hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻi hono ua ʻoe māhina: pea naʻe maʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, ʻonau fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu, ʻonau ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ki he fale ʻo Sihova.

16 And they stoode in their place after their maner, according to the Lawe of Moses the man of God: and the Priestes sprinkled the blood, receiued of the handes of the Leuites.

Pea naʻa nau tuʻu ʻi honau potu ʻo taau mo honau anga, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tangata ʻae ʻOtua: naʻe luluku ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae toto, ʻaia naʻa nau maʻu mei he nima ʻoe kau Livai.

17 Because there were many in the Congregation that were not sanctified, therefore the Leuites had the charge of the killing of ye Passeouer for all that were not cleane, to sanctifie it to the Lord.

He naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tokolahi ʻi he fakataha naʻe ʻikai fakamaʻa: ko ia naʻe ʻi he kau Livai ʻae fekau ki he tāmateʻi ʻoe ngaahi [manu ʻoe ]Lakaatu, maʻanautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻikai maʻa, ke fakatapui ʻakinautolu kia Sihova.

18 For a multitude of the people, euen a multitude of Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun had not cleansed themselues, yet did eate the Passeouer, but not as it was written: wherefore Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The good Lord be mercifull toward him,

He ko e kakai tokolahi, ʻio, ʻae tokolahi ʻo ʻIfalemi, mo Manase, mo ʻIsaka, mo Sepuloni, naʻe teʻeki ai te nau fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu, ka naʻa nau kai ʻae Lakaatu kae ʻikai hangē ko ia kuo tohi. Ka naʻe lotua ʻakinautolu ʻe Hesekaia, ʻo pehē, “ʻE Sihova lelei fakamolemolea ʻakinautolu kotoa pē,

19 That prepareth his whole heart to seeke the Lord God, the God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed, according to the purification of the Sanctuarie.

‌ʻOku teuteu honau loto ke kumi ki he ʻOtua, ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai, ka ʻoku teʻeki ai fakamaʻa ia ʻo fakatatau ki he fakamaʻa ʻoe fale nofoʻanga.”

20 And the Lord heard Hezekiah, and healed the people.

Pea naʻe tokanga ʻe Sihova kia Hesekaia, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻae kakai.

21 And the children of Israel that were present at Ierusalem, kept the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes with great ioye, and the Leuites, and the Priestes praysed the Lord, day by day, singing with loude instruments vnto the Lord.

Pea naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe ʻi Selūsalema ʻae kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻi he fiefia lahi: pea naʻe fakaongo lelei ʻa Sihova ʻe he kau Livai mo e kau taulaʻeiki ʻi he ʻaho hokohoko pe, ʻi he hiva mo e meʻa faiva leʻo lahi kia Sihova.

22 And Hezekiah spake comfortably vnto all the Leuites that had good knowledge to sing vnto the Lord: and they did eate in that feast seuen dayes, and offred peace offrings, and praysed the Lord God of their fathers.

Pea naʻe lea fakafiemālie ʻe Hesekaia ki he kau Livai kotoa pē naʻe akonaki ʻi he ʻilo lelei ʻo Sihova: pea naʻa nau kai kotoa pē lolotonga ʻae kātoanga ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu, ʻo ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei, ʻo fai ʻenau vete kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.

23 And the whole assembly tooke counsel to keepe it other seuen dayes. So they kept it seuen dayes with ioy.

Pea naʻe alea fakataha ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ke toe tauhi mo e ʻaho ʻe fitu: pea naʻa nau tauhi ʻae ʻaho kehe ʻe fitu ʻi he fiefia.

24 For Hezekiah King of Iudah had giuen to the Congregation a thousande bullockes, and seuen thousand sheepe. And the princes had giuen to the Congregation a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheepe: and many Priests were sanctified.

He naʻe foaki ʻe Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki he kakai fakataha ʻae fanga pulu ʻe taha afe, mo e sipi ʻe fitu afe: pea foaki ʻe he houʻeiki ki he kakai fakataha ʻae fanga pulu ʻe taha afe mo e sipi ʻe taha mano: pea naʻe fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki tokolahi.

25 And all the Congregation of Iudah reioyced with the Priestes and the Leuites, and all the Congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Iudah.

Pea naʻe fiefia ʻae fakataha kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, fakataha mo e kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, pea mo e kakai fakataha kotoa pē naʻe haʻu mei he fonua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻonau nofo ʻi Siuta.

26 So there was great ioye in Ierusalem: for since the time of Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel there was not the like thing in Ierusalem.

Ko ia naʻe ʻi Selūsalema ʻae fiefia lahi: he talu mei he kuonga ʻo Solomone ko e foha ʻo Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli naʻe ʻikai ha meʻa pehē ʻi Selūsalema.

27 Then the Priests and the Leuites arose, and blessed the people, and their voyce was heard, and their prayer came vp vnto heauen, to his holy habitation.

Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai ʻonau tāpuakiʻi ʻae kakai: pea naʻe ongoʻi honau leʻo, pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻenau lotu ki hono ʻafioʻanga māʻoniʻoni, ʻi he langi.
