2 Cronicas 34

1 Walo ti tawen ni Josias idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay; nagturay isuna iti 31 a tawen idiay Jerusalem.

Josias was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

2 Inaramidna ti nalinteg iti imatang ni Yahweh, ken nagbiag isuna a kas iti panagbiag ni David a kapuonanna, ken tinungpalna amin a bilin ti Dios.

And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his father David, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.

3 Ta iti maikawalo a tawen iti panagturayna, idi agtutubo pay laeng isuna, rinugianannan ti agdaydayaw iti Dios ni David a kapuonanna. Iti maika-12 a tawen, rinugianna a dalusan ti Juda ken Jerusalem babaen iti panangdadaelna kadagiti disso a pagdaydayawan kadagiti didiosen, dagiti imahen ni Asera, dagiti nakitikitan a ladawan, ken dagiti nasukog a ladawan.

And in the eighth year of his reign, and he [being] yet a youth, he began to seek the Lord God of his father David: and in the twelfth year of his reign he began to purge Juda and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the ornaments for the altars, and the molten images.

4 Rinebba dagiti tattao dagiti altar ni Baal iti imatang ni Josias; tinumbana dagiti altar a pagpuoran kadagiti insenso nga adda iti ngatoen dagitoy. Binurakburakna dagiti imahen ni Asera ken dagiti nakitikitan a ladawan, ken dagiti nasukog a landok a ladawan agingga a nagbalin a tapok dagitoy. Inwarisna ti tapok kadagiti tanem dagiti nangidatdatag kadagiti daton kadakuada.

And he pulled down the altars of Baalim that were before his face, and the high places that were above them; and he cut down the groves, and the graven images, and broke in pieces the molten images, and reduced them to powder, and cast [it] upon the surface of the tombs of those who [had] sacrificed to them.

5 Pinuoranna dagiti tultulang dagiti papadida kadagiti altar a nagdaydayawanda. Iti kastoy a wagas, dinalusanna ti Juda ken Jerusalem.

And he burnt the bones of the priests upon the altars, and purged Juda and Jerusalem.

6 Kasta met laeng ti inaramidna kadagiti siudad iti Manases, Efraim, ken Simeon, agingga iti Neftali, ken kadagiti nadadael a paset iti aglawlaw dagitoy.

And [he did so] in the cities of Manasse, and Ephraim, and Symeon, and Nephthali, and the places round about them.

7 Rinebbana dagiti altar, binurakburakna dagiti imahen ni Asera ken dagiti nakitikitan a ladawan, ken binurakna dagiti altar a pagpuoran kadagiti insenso iti entero a daga ti Israel; kalpasanna ket nagsubli isuna idiay Jerusalem.

And he pulled down the altars and the groves, and he cut the idols in small pieces, and cut off all the high places from all the land of Israel, and returned to Jerusalem.

8 Ita, iti maika-18 a tawen iti panagturayna, kalpasan a nadalusan ni Josias ti daga ken ti templo, imbaonna da Safan a putot a lalaki ni Asalias, ni Maasias, a gobernador iti siudad, ken ni Joas a putot a lalaki ni Joacaz a sekritario, a tarimaanenda ti balay ni Yahweh a Diosna.

And in the eighteenth year of his reign, after having cleansed the land, and the house, he sent Saphan the son of Ezelias, and Maasa prefect of the city, and Juach son of Joachaz his recorder, to repair the house of the Lord his God.

9 Napanda kenni Hilkias, a nangato a padi, ket intalekda kenkuana ti kuarta a naiyeg iti balay ti Dios, a naur-or dagiti Levita, a guardia dagiti ruangan manipud iti Manases ken Efraim, manipud kadagiti amin a nabatbati iti Israel, manipud iti entero a Juda ken Bejamin, ken kadagiti agnanaed iti Jerusalem.

And they came to Chelcias the high priest, and gave the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites who kept the gate collected of the hand of Manasse and Ephraim, and of the princes, and of every one that was left in Israel, and of the children of Juda and Benjamin, and of the dwellers in Jerusalem.

10 Intalekda ti kuarta kadagiti lallaki a mangimatmaton iti trabaho idiay templo ni Yahweh. Tinangdanan dagitoy a lallaki dagiti trabahador a nangtarimaan ken nangipasdek manen iti templo.

And they gave it into the hand of the workmen, who were appointed in the house of the Lord, and they gave it to the workmen who wrought in the house of the Lord, to repair and strengthen the house.

11 Intangdanda dagitoy kadagiti karpentero ken kadagiti agipaspasdek, ken pinanggatangda kadagiti napurmaan a bato, ken kadagiti tabla a pangpatibker, ken maaramid nga adigi para kadagiti paset a binaybay-an a marba dagiti sigud nga ari ti Juda.

They gave [it] also to the carpenters and builders, to buy squared stones, and timber for beams to cover the houses which the kings of Juda had destroyed.

12 Sipupudno nga inaramid dagiti lalaki ti trabahoda. Dagiti mangimatmaton kadakuada ket da Jahat ken Obadias, a Levita, a putot a lallaki ni Merari; ken ni Zacarias ken Mesullam, manipud kadagiti putot a lallaki dagiti Koatitas. Dagidiay dadduma a Levita a nalalaing iti musiko ket immatonanda dagiti agtrabtrabaho.

And the men [were] faithfully [engaged] in the works: and over them were superintendents, Jeth and Abdias, Levites of the sons of Merari, and Zacharias and Mosollam, of the sons of Caath, [appointed] to oversee; and every Levite, and every one that understood [how] to play on musical instruments.

13 Dagitoy a Levita ket isuda ti mangimatmaton kadagiti agbunbunag kadagiti mausar iti pasdek ken kadagiti dadduma a lallaki nga agtrabtrabaho. Adda met dagiti Levita a sekritario, mangimatmaton, ken guardia dagiti ruangan.

And [overseers were] over the burden-bearers, and over all the workmen in the respective works; and of the Levites [were appointed] scribes, and judges, and porters.

14 Idi inruarda dagiti kuarta a naiyeg iti balay ni Yahweh, nasarakan ni Hilkias a padi Ti Libro ti Linteg ni Yahweh a naited babaen kenni Moises.

And when they brought forth the money that had been brought into the house of the Lord, Chelcias the priest found a book of the law of the Lord [given] by the hand of Moses.

15 Kinuna ni Hilkias kenni Safan nga eskriba, “Nasarakak Ti Libro ti Linteg iti balay ni Yahweh.” Impan ni Hilkias ti Libro kenni Safan.

And Chelcias answered and said to Saphan the scribe, I have found a book of the law in the house of the Lord. And Chelcias gave the book to Saphan.

16 Impan ni Safan ti Libro iti ari, ken kinunana pay kenkuana, “Ar-aramiden dagiti adipenmo dagiti amin a naitalek kadakuada.

And Saphan brought in the book to the king, and moreover gave an account to the king, [saying, This is] all the money given into the hand of your servants that work.

17 Innalada amin dagiti kuarta a nakitada iti balay ni Yahweh, ket intalekda daytoy kadagiti mangimatmaton ken kadagiti trabahador.”

And they have collected the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and given it into the hand of the overseers, and into the hand of them that do the work.

18 Kinuna ni Safan nga eskriba iti ari, “Adda libro nga inted kaniak ni Hilkias a padi.” Kalpasanna, imbasa ni Safan ti libro iti ari.

And Saphan the scribe brought word to the king, saying, Chelcias the priest has given me a book. And Saphan read it before the king.

19 Idi mangngeg ti ari dagiti linteg, rinay-abna dagiti pagan-anayna.

And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the law, that he tore his garments.

20 Binilin ti ari da Hilkias, ni Ahikam a putot a lalaki ni Safan, ni Abdon a putot a lalaki ni Mika, ni Safan nga eskriba, ken ni Asaias, nga adipenna, a kunana,

And the king commanded Chelcias, and Achicam the son of Saphan, and Abdom the son of Michaias, and Saphan the scribe, and Asia the servant of the king, saying,

21 “Mapanyo saludsoden ti pagayatan ni Yahweh kaniak, ken kadagiti nabati iti Israel ken iti Juda, gapu kadagiti sasao iti libro a nasarakan. Ta nakaro ti pungtot ni Yahweh a naidissuor kadatayo. Nakaro unay, gapu ta saan nga impangag dagiti kapuonantayo dagiti sasao iti daytoy a libro a kas panangtungpal koma kadagiti amin a naisurat iti daytoy a libro.”

Go, enquire of the Lord for me, and for every one that is left in Israel and Juda, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the Lord [which] has been kindled amongst us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of the Lord, to do according to all the things written in this book.

22 Isu a ni Hilkias, ken dagiti binilin ti ari, ket napanda kenni Hulda a babai a profeta, nga asawa ni Sallum a putot a lalaki ni Tokat, a putot a lalaki ni Hara, a mangay-aywan kadagiti kawes (agnanaed isuna idiay Jerusalem idiay Maikadua a Distrito), ket kinasaritada isuna iti kastoy a wagas:

And Chelcias went, and [the others] whom the king told, to Olda the prophetess, the wife of Sellem son of Thecoe, son of Aras, who kept the commandments; and she lived in Jerusalem in the second [quarter]: and they spoke to her accordingly.

23 Kinunana kadakuada, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel: 'Ibagayo iti tao a nangibaon kadakayo nga umaykayo kaniak,

And she said to them, Thus has the Lord God of Israel said, Tell the man who sent you to me,

24 “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: 'Dumngegka, mangidissuorakto iti didigra iti daytoy a lugar ken kadagiti agnanaed iti daytoy, dagiti amin a lunod a naisurat iti libro nga imbasada iti sangoanan ti ari ti Juda.

Thus says the Lord, Behold, I bring evil upon this place, [even] all the words that are written in the book that was read before the king of Juda:

25 Gapu ta linaksiddak ken nangpuorda kadagiti insenso kadagiti didiosen, tapno pagpungtotendak babaen kadagitoy nga inar-aramidda-ngarud, maidissuorto ti pungtotko iti daytoy a lugar, ket saanto nga agbaaw daytoy.””

because they have forsaken me, and burnt incense to strange gods, that they might provoke me by all the works of their hands; and my wrath is kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.

26 Ngem maipapan iti ari ti Juda, a nangibaon kadakayo tapno saludsoden ti pagayatan ni Yahweh, kastoy ti ibagayo kenkuana: “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel: Maipanggep kadagiti sasao a nangngegmo:

And concerning the king of Juda, who sent you to seek the Lord, —thus shall you say to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, [As for] the words which you has heard,

27 'gapu ta nagbabawika, ken nagpakumbabaka iti sangoanan ti Dios idi nangngegmo dagiti sasaona a maibusor iti daytoy a lugar ken kadagiti agnanaed iti daytoy, ken gapu ta nagpakumbabaka iti sangoanak ken rinay-abmo dagiti pagan-anaymo ken immasugka iti sangoanak, impangagka met'-kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.

forasmuch as your heart was ashamed, and you was humbled before me when you heard my words against this place, and against the inhabitants of it, and you were humbled before me, and did rend your garments, and did weep before me; I also have heard, says the Lord.

28 ‘Kitaem, itiponkanto kadagiti kapuonam; natalnanto ti pannakaitanemmo, ken saanto a maimatangan dagiti matam ti uray ania kadagiti didigra nga idissuorko iti daytoy a lugar ken kadagiti agnanaed iti daytoy."”” Impakaammo ngarud dagiti lallaki daytoy a mensahe iti ari.

Behold, I [will] gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes shall not look upon all the evils which I am bringing upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of it. And they brought back word to the king.

29 Kalpasanna, nangibaon ti ari kadagiti mensahero ken inummongna dagiti amin a panglakayen iti Juda ken Jerusalem.

And the king sent and gathered the elders of Juda and Jerusalem.

30 Kalpasanna, napan ti ari iti balay ni Yahweh, ken dagiti amin a lallaki ti Juda ken dagiti agnanaed iti Jerusalem, ken dagiti papadi, Levita, ken amin dagiti tattao, dagiti mararaem ken nanumo. Bayat nga agdengdengngegda, imbasa ti ari dagiti amin a linaon ti Libro ti Tulag a nasarakan idiay balay ni Yahweh.

And the king went up to the house of the Lord, [he] and all Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people great and small: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that were found in the house of the Lord.

31 Nagtakder ti ari iti lugarna ket nakitulag iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, nga agtulnog ken ni Yahweh, ken tungpalenna dagiti bilbilinna, dagiti pammaneknekna iti katulaganna, ken dagiti alagadenna, iti amin a puso ken kararuana, nga agtulnog kadagiti sasao iti katulagan a naisurat iti daytoy a libro.

And the king stood at a pillar, and made a covenant before the Lord, to walk before the Lord, to keep his commandments and testimonies, and his ordinances, with all [his] heart and with all [his] soul, so as to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book.

32 Pinagkarina dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti Jerusalem ken Benjamin a tungpalenda ti katulagan. Nagtulnog dagiti agnanaed iti Jerusalem iti tulag ti Dios, a Dios dagiti kapuonanda.

And he caused all that were found in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand; and the inhabitants of Jerusalem made a covenant in the house of the Lord God of their fathers.

33 Inikkat ni Josias dagiti amin a makarimon a banbanag kadagiti daga a kukua dagiti tattao ti Israel. Pinagdayawna kenni Yahweh a Diosda ti tunggal maysa iti Israel. Kadagiti amin nga al-aldawna, saanda a sinalungasing ti panagtulnogda kenni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda.

And Josias removed all the abominations out of the whole land which belonged to the children of Israel, and caused all that were found in Jerusalem and in Israel, to serve the Lord their God all his days: he departed not from following the Lord God of his fathers.
