2 Chronicles 35

1 Moreouer Iosiah kept a Passeouer vnto the Lord in Ierusalem, and they slewe the Passeouer in the fourtenth day of the first moneth.

Pea naʻe fai foki ʻe Sosaia ʻa e [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu kia Sihova ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻae Lakaatu ʻi hono [ʻaho ]hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina.

2 And he appointed the Priestes to their charges, and incouraged them to the seruice of the house of the Lord,

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻi honau ngaahi lakanga, ʻo ne tokoni ʻakinautolu ʻi he ngāue ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.

3 And he sayd vnto the Leuites that taught all Israel and were sanctified vnto the Lord, Put the holy Arke in the house which Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel did build: it shalbe no more a burden vpon your shoulders: serue now the Lord your God and his people Israel,

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he kau Livai ʻaia naʻe akonakiʻi ʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē, ʻakinautolu naʻe māʻoniʻoni kia Sihova, “Mou ʻai ʻae puha māʻoniʻoni ʻi he fale naʻe langa ʻe Solomone ko e foha ʻo Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli: ʻe ʻikai ʻai ia ko e kavenga ki homou uma: ko eni mou tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, mo hono kakai ko ʻIsileli,

4 And prepare your selues by the houses of your fathers according to your courses, as Dauid the King of Israel hath written, and according to the writing of Salomon his sonne,

Pea teuteu ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻo fakatatau ki homou lakanga, ʻo taau mo e tohi ʻa Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, pea hangē ko e tohi ʻa Solomone ko hono foha.

5 And stande in the Sanctuarie according to the deuision of the families of your brethren the children of the people, and after the deuision of the familie of the Leuites:

Pea mou tuʻu ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni ʻo fakatatau mo e vahe ʻoe ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi tamai ʻo homou kāinga ko e kakai, pea taau mo e vahe ʻoe ngaahi fale ʻoe kau Livai.

6 So kill the Passeouer and sanctifie your selues, and prepare your brethren that they may doe according to the worde of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

Ko ia mou tāmateʻi ʻae Lakaatu, pea fakamāʻoniʻoni ʻakimoutolu, pea teuteu homou ngaahi kāinga, koeʻuhi ke nau fai ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.”

7 Iosiah also gaue to the people sheepe, lambs and kiddes, all for the Passeouer, euen to all that were present, to the nomber of thirtie thousand, and three thousande bullocks: these were of the Kings substance.

Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Sosaia ki he kakai, ʻi he fanga manu, ko e fanga lami mo e ʻuhikiʻi kosi, ko e meʻa foaki kotoa pē ki he [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu, maʻae kakai naʻe kātoa, ko e tolu mano, mo e fanga pulu ʻe tolu afe: naʻe ʻomi ʻae meʻa ni mei he koloa ʻae tuʻi.

8 And his princes offred willingly vnto the people, to the Priests and to the Leuites: Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Iehiel, rulers of the house of God, gaue vnto the Priests for the Passeouer, euen two thousand and sixe hundreth sheepe, and three hundreth bullockes.

Pea naʻe foaki fiemālie pe ʻe hono houʻeiki ki he kakai, pea ki he kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai: ko Hilikia mo Sakalia mo Sehieli, ko e kau pule ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, naʻa nau foaki ki he kau taulaʻeiki ko e feilaulau ʻi he [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu, ko e fanga manu siʻi ko e ua afe mo e onongeau, mo e fanga pulu ʻe tolungeau.

9 Conaniah also and Shemaiah and Nethaneel his brethren, and Hashabiah and Ieiel, and Iozabad, chiefe of the Leuites gaue vnto the Leuites for the Passeouer, fiue thousand sheepe, and fiue hundreth bullockes.

Pea ko Kononaia foki, mo Simaia mo Netanili, ko hono kāinga, mo Hesapaia mo Sehieli mo Sosapati, ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻoe kau Livai, naʻa nau foaki ki he kau Livai ko e feilaulau ki he [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu, ko e fanga manu siʻi ʻe nima afe, mo e fanga pulu ʻe nimangeau.

10 Thus the seruice was prepared, and the Priests stoode in their places, also the Leuites in their orders, according to the Kings commandement:

Ko ia naʻe teuteu ʻae ngāue, pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ʻi honau potu, mo e kau Livai ʻi honau lakanga, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻae tuʻi.

11 And they slewe the Passeouer, and the Priests sprinkled the blood with their handes, and the Leuites flayed them.

Pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻae Lakaatu, pea naʻe luluku ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki ʻae toto mei honau nima, pea naʻe fohifohiʻi ʻae ngaahi manu ʻe he kau Livai.

12 And they tooke away from the burnt offering to giue it according to the deuisions of the families of the children of the people, to offer vnto the Lord, as it is written in the booke of Moses, and so of the bullockes.

Pea naʻa nau hiki ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, koeʻuhi ke nau foaki ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi vahe ʻoe ngaahi fale nofoʻanga ʻoe kakai, ke ʻatu kia Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻa Mōsese. Pea naʻa nau fai pehē pe ki he fanga pulu.

13 And they rosted the Passeouer with fire, according to ye custome, but the sanctified things they sod in pots, pannes, and cauldrons, and distributed them quickely to all the people.

Pea naʻa nau tunu ʻa e [feilaulau ʻoe ]Lakaatu ʻaki ʻae afi ʻo fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni: ka ko hono ngaahi meʻa māʻoniʻoni niʻihi naʻa nau haka ʻi he ngaahi kulo, mo e kulo lahi, mo e ngaahi ipu, pea tufa leva ia ki he kakai kotoa pē.

14 Afterwarde also they prepared for them selues and for the Priestes: for the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron were occupied in offering of burnt offrings, and the fat vntill night: therefore the Leuites prepared for them selues, and for the Priests the sonnes of Aaron.

Pea hili ia naʻa nau teuteu maʻanautolu, pea maʻae kau taulaʻeiki: koeʻuhi naʻe moʻua ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone ʻi he ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu mo e ngako, ʻo feʻunga mo e poʻuli: ko ia naʻe teuteu ai maʻanautolu ʻe he kau Livai, pea maʻae kau taulaʻeiki ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone.

15 And the singers the sonnes of Asaph stoode in their standing according to the commandement of Dauid, and Asaph, and Heman, and Ieduthun the Kings Seer: and the porters at euery gate, who might not depart from their seruice: therefore their brethren the Leuites prepared for them.

Pea naʻe ʻi honau potu ʻae kau hiva ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAsafi, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Tevita, mo ʻAsafi, mo Hemoni, mo Situtuni ko e tangata kikite ʻae tuʻi: pea naʻe tali ʻi he matapā ʻae kau leʻo matapā: koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa nau ʻalu mei heʻenau ngāue: he naʻe teuteuʻi maʻanautolu ʻe honau kāinga ko e kau Livai.

16 So all the seruice of the Lord was prepared the same day, to keepe the Passeouer, and to offer burnt offerings vpon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandement of King Iosiah.

Pea pehē, naʻe teu ʻae ngāue kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻaho [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu, pea ke ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻae tuʻi ko Sosaia.

17 And the children of Israel that were present, kept the Passeouer the same time, and the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes.

Pea naʻe fai ʻa e [kātoanga ]ʻoe Lakaatu ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe ʻi ai, mo e kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻelēvani ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu.

18 And there was no Passeouer kept like that, in Israel, from the dayes of Samuel the Prophet: neyther did all the Kings of Israel keepe such a Passeouer as Iosiah kept, and the Priestes and the Leuites, and all Iudah, and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem.

Pea naʻe ʻikai ha [kātoanga ʻoe ]Lakaatu ʻe fai ʻi ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko ia talu ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Samuela ko e palōfita: pea naʻe ʻikai fai ha [kātoanga ʻoe ]Lakaatu ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Sosaia, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai, mo Siuta kotoa pē mo ʻIsileli ʻaia naʻe kātoa, mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema.

19 This Passeouer was kept in the eighteenth yeere of the reigne of Iosiah.

Naʻe fai ʻa e [kātoanga ʻoe ]Lakaatu ni ʻi hono hongofulu ma valu ʻoe taʻu ʻae pule ʻa Sosaia.

20 After all this, when Iosiah had prepared the Temple, Necho King of Egypt came vp to fight against Carchemish by Perath, and Iosiah went out against him.

Pea hili ʻae meʻa ni kotoa pē, pea ʻosi hono teuʻi ʻae faletapu ʻe Sosaia, naʻe ui hake ʻa Niko ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ke tauʻi ʻa Kalikimisi ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki he ʻIufaletisi: pea naʻe ʻalu kituaʻā ʻa Sosaia ke tauʻi ia.

21 But he sent messengers to him, saying, What haue I to doe with thee, thou King of Iudah? I come not against thee this day, but against the house of mine enemie, and God commanded me to make haste: leaue of to come against God, which is with me, least he destroy thee.

Ka naʻa ne fekau ʻae kau tangata fekau kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā ʻeku kau kiate koe, ʻa koe ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta? ʻOku ʻikai te u haʻu ke tauʻi koe he ʻaho ni, ka ki he fale ʻaia ʻoku ou tauʻi: he naʻe fekau au ʻe he ʻOtua ke u fakatoʻotoʻo: ke ke taʻofi koe ke ʻoua naʻa ke fie kau ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate au, telia naʻa ne tāmateʻi koe.”

22 But Iosiah would not turne his face from him, but changed his apparel to fight with him, and hearkened not vnto the wordes of Necho, which were of the mouth of God, but came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.

Ka naʻe ʻikai fie kalofaki ʻe Sosaia hono mata meiate ia, ka naʻa ne fakapuli ia, koeʻuhi ke na fai mo ia, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tokanga ki he ngaahi lea ʻa Niko mei he fofonga ʻoe ʻOtua, ka naʻe haʻu ke tauʻi ia ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Mekito.

23 And the shooters shot at king Iosiah: then the King saide to his seruants, Cary me away, for I am very sicke.

Pea naʻe fana ʻe he kau fana ki he tuʻi ko Sosaia: pea naʻe pehē ʻe he tuʻi ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “ʻAve au mei heni: he kuo u lavea lahi.”

24 So his seruants tooke him out of that charet, and put him in the seconde charet which he had, and when they had brought him to Ierusalem, he dyed, and was buryed in the sepulchres of his fathers: and all Iudah and Ierusalem mourned for Iosiah.

Ko ia naʻe ʻave ai ia ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki mei he saliote ko ia, pea naʻe tuku ia ki hono ua ʻo ʻene saliote naʻa ne maʻu: pea naʻa nau ʻomi ia ki Selūsalema, pea pekia ia: pea nau tanu ia ʻi he tanuʻanga ʻe taha ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai. Pea naʻe tangi mamahi ʻa Siuta mo Selūsalema koeʻuhi ko Sosaia.

25 And Ieremiah lamented Iosiah, and al singing men and singing women mourned for Iosiah in their lamentations to this day, and made the same for an ordinance vnto Israel: and beholde, they be written in the lamentations.

Pea naʻe tangilāulau ʻa Selemaia koeʻuhi ko Sosaia: pea naʻe kau kia Sosaia ʻae lea ʻae kau tangata hiva kotoa pē mo e kau fefine hiva ʻi heʻenau ngaahi lea tangi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, pea naʻa nau fokotuʻu ia ko e meʻa fai maʻu ʻi ʻIsileli: pea vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he ngaahi tangilāulau.

26 Concerning the rest of the actes of Iosiah and his goodnesse, doing as it was written in the Lawe of the Lord,

Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngāue ʻa Sosaia, mo ʻene angalelei, ʻo fakatatau ki ne meʻa naʻe tohi ʻi he fono ʻa Sihova,

27 And his deedes, first and last, behold, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Israel and Iudah.

Pea mo ʻene ngaahi ngāue, ko e ʻuluaki mo e kimui, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siuta.
