2 Tantara 34
1 Valo taoñe t’Iosià te namototse nifehe, le nifehe telopolo taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao;
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years.
2 naho nanao ze fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà naho nañavelo an-tsata’ i Davide rae’e vaho tsy nivike mb’ am-pitàn-kavana ndra havia.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
3 Fa amy taom-paha-valo’ i fifehea’ey, ie mbe tora’e, le niorotse nipay an’ Andrianañahare’ i Davide rae’e; le amy taom-paha-folo-ro’ambi’ey ty namotora’e fañondrok’ am’ Iehodà naho am’ Ierosalaime ze tamboho naho Asere naho sare-sokitse vaho sare-trinanake.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.
4 Rinoba’ iareo añatrefa’e o kitrlem-baaleo, le finira’e o sare’ i àndroy ambone’ iareoo; le dinemo’e ho deboke o Asereo naho o sare-sokitseo naho o sare trinanakeo vaho nabobò’e an-kibori’ o nisoroñe ama’eo.
And they brake down the altars of Baalim in his presence; and the images, that were on high above them, he cut down; and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images, he brake in pieces, and made dust of them, and scattered it upon the graves of them that had sacrificed unto them.
5 Le finorototo’e amo kitreli’eo ty taola’ o mpisoroñeo vaho nondrohe’e t’Iehoda naho Ierosalaime.
And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.
6 Nanoe’e izay ka o rova’ i Menasè naho i Efraime naho i Simeoneo pake Naftalý añe naho o tanan-taolo nañohoke iareoo.
And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even unto Naphtali, with their mattocks round about.
7 Le rinoba’e o kitrelio naho dinemo’e ho deboke o Asereo naho o sare-sokitseo naho fonga finira’e o sare’ i àndroy an-tane’ Israele iabio vaho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem.
8 Ie amy taom-paha-folo-valo’ ambi’ i fifehea’ey, ie fa nañalio i taney naho i anjombay, le nirahe’e mb’amy Safane ana’ i Atsaliaho naho i Maaseià bei’ i rovay naho Ioake ana’ Ioakaze mpamolily, ty hañamboatse ty anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañahare.
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.
9 Le nimb’ amy Kilkià mpisorom-bey mb’eo iereo nanese o drala nampiziliheñe añ’ anjomban’ Añahareo, ze natonto’ o nte-Levy mpiamben-dalañeo am-pità’ i Menasè naho amy Efraime naho amo sehanga’ Israele iabio naho amy Iehodà miharo amy Beniamine iaby vaho amo mpimoneñe e Ierosalaimeo.
And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem.
10 Le natolo’ iereo am-pità’ o mpitoloñe nisary añ’ anjomba’ Iehovào; vaho natolo’ iereo amo mpamboatse nifanehak’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày hanosoha’e naho hampisomontie’e i anjombay;
And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of the LORD, to repair and amend the house:
11 natolo’ iereo amo mpandranjio naho amo mpamboatseo, hikaloa’ iareo vato vinàñe naho hatae ho famitrañañe naho handranjiañe sàzoke o traño narotsa’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodao.
Even to the artificers and builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
12 Nifanehak’ am-pigahiñañe ondatio; le nisary iareo t’Ikate naho i Obadià, nte’ Levy amo ana’ i Merario; le niaolo iareo t’i Zekarià naho i Mesolame anan’ te-Kohate naho ze hene nte-Levy naha-fititike sabo.
And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of music.
13 Nisarie’ iereo ka o mpijiny kilankañeo naho niaolo amy ze fitoloñañe amy ze karazan’ asa iaby; le nimpanokitse naho mpifehe vaho mpañambeñe ty ila’ o nte-Levio.
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that wrought the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.
14 Aa ie nakare’ iereo i drala nampiziliheñe añ’anjomba’ Iehovày, le nioni’ i Kilkià, mpisoroñe ty boke Hà’ Iehovà tinolo’ i Mosè.
And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the LORD, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of the LORD given by Moses.
15 Le hoe ty nisaontsia’ i Kilkià amy Safane, mpanokitse, Fa nitreako añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao i boke Hàkey vaho natolo’ i Kilkià amy Safane i bokey.
And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.
16 Le nendese’ i Safane amy mpanjakay i bokey vaho nanovon-tsaontsy amy mpanjakay ami’ty hoe; Fa nihenefa’ o mpitoro’o iabio ze nafantok’ am’iereo.
And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to your servants, they do it.
17 Le fa natonto’ iareo i drala nitendrek’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày vaho fa natolo’ iareo am-pità’ o mpisario naho am-pità’ o mpitoloñeo.
And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen.
18 Le nitaroñe’ i Safane amy mpanjakay ty hoe: Nanolotse boke ahy t’i Kilkià mpisoroñe. Vaho vinaki’ i Safane añatrefa’ i mpanjakaio.
Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
19 Ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty enta’ i Hake, le niriate’e o siki’eo.
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes.
20 Le linili’ i mpanjakay t’i Kilkià naho i Akikame ana’ i Safane naho i Abdone, ana’ i Mikà naho i Safane mpanokitse naho i Asaià mpitoro’ i mpanjakay, ami’ty hoe,
And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king's, saying,
21 Akia, añontaneo Iehovà ho ahy naho ho amy ze sisa’ Israele naho Iehoda, o tsara’ i boke nitendrekeio; fa ra’elahy ty haviñera’ Iehovà hidoandoañe amantika, amy te tsy nitana’ o roaentikañeo ty tsara’ Iehovà, hanoa’ iareo ze hene sinokitse amy bokey.
Go, enquire of the LORD for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD, to do after all that is written in this book.
22 Aa le nimb’ amy Koldà mpitoky (mpimoneñe amy efe’ Ierosalaime faharoe ao), vali’ i Salome ana’ i Tokate, ana’ i Kasrà mpamandroñe i fañajan-tsaroñey, t’i Kilkià naho i tinendre’ i mpanjakay rey nitaroñe izay.
And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college: ) and they spoke to her to that effect.
23 Le hoe re am’ iereo: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele, taroño am’ indaty nañitrik’ anahareo amakoy:
And she answered them, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Tell all of you the man that sent you to me,
24 Hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo, hametsahako hankàñe ty toetse toy naho o mpimone’eo, le ze hene fatse sinokitse amy boke vinaki’ iareo añatrefa’ i mpanjaka’ Iehodaiy;
Thus says the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah:
25 amy t’ie nifary ahy naho nañemboke aman-drahare ila’e; toly ndra hadoañe ami’ty toetse toy ty habosehako vaho tsy hakipe.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched.
26 Fe i mpanjaka’ Iehodà nañirak’ anahareo hañontane am’ Iehovày, ty hanoe’ areo ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: Ty amo tsara vinaki’oo,
And as for the king of Judah, who sent you to enquire of the LORD, so shall all of you say unto him, Thus says the LORD God of Israel concerning the words which you have heard;
27 kanao nitrotrotrotro añ’arofo rehe naho nirè-bathe añatrefan’ Añahare, ihe nijanjiñe i tsaraeñe ty toetse toy zay, naho ty amo mpimone’eo naho nidrakadrakak’ amako naho nandria-tsaroñe vaho nirovetse añ’ atrefako, le tsinanoko, hoe t’Iehovà.
Because your heart was tender, and you did humble yourself before God, when you heard his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst yourself before me, and did rend your clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard you also, says the LORD.
28 Oniño t’ie havoriko aman-droae’o le hasese mb’an-kibori’o an-kanintsiñe vaho tsy ho isam-pihaino’o ze fonga hankàñe hafetsako ami’ty toetse toy naho amo mpimone’eo. Aa le nahere’ iareo amy mpanjakay i tsaray.
Behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, neither shall your eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.
29 Aa le nampañitrike i mpanjakay vaho natonto’e iaby o androanavi’ Iehoda naho Ierosalaimeo.
Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 Le nimb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovày mb’eo i mpanjakay naho ondati’ Iehoda iabio naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo naho o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio naho ze fonga ondaty, ty bey naho ty kede; le vinaki’e an-dravembia’ iareo o hene tsara’ i bokem-pañina nizoeñe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovày.
And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah, 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 was found in the house of the LORD.
31 Nijohañe amy toe’ey i mpanjakay, le nifañina añatrefa’ Iehovà, t’ie hañavelo am-pañorihañe Iehovà naho hambenañe o lili’eo naho o fitaroña’eo naho o fañè’eo, an-kaàmpon’ arofo naho an-kaliforam-pañova vaho hanao o tsaram-pañina sinokitse amy bokeio.
And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant which are written in this book.
32 Le nampiongahe’e ze hene nizoeñe e Ierosalaime naho e Beniamine ao. Aa le norihe’ o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo i fañinan’ Añahare, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareoy.
And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 Le fonga nafaha’ Iosià ty haloloañe amy ze hene tane’ o ana’ Israeleo, le songa nampitoroñe’e o nizoeñe e Israeleo, hitoroñe Iehovà Andrianañahare, vaho tsy nivik’ amy fañorihañe Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareoy amo hene andro’eo iereo.
And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve the LORD their God. And all his days they departed not from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.
