1 Yousaia da lalelegele, ode godoane esalu, e da bai muni Yuda hina bagade hamoi. E da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esala, ode 31 agoanega Yuda fi ouligilalu.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
2 Yousaia da Hina Gode hahawane ba: ma: ne hamoi. E da ea musa: aowa hina bagade Da: ibidi ea hou defele, Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i huluane nabawane hamosu.
He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, and walked in the ways of David his ancestor, and did not turn away either to the right or to the left.
3 Hina bagade ayeligi Yousaia ea ouligisu ode godoanega, e da muni ea aowa hina bagade Da: ibidi ea Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou hamosu. Ode biyaduyale eno da gidigili, e da bai muni ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi amola wadela: i uda ‘gode’ Asila agoai loboga hamoi liligi amola eno wadela: i loboga hamoi ‘gode’ huluane bai muni gugunufinisisu.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek after the God of David, his ancestor. In the twelfth year, he began to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, the Asherah poles, and the carved figures and the cast metal figures.
4 Ea sia: beba: le, ilia da oloda amoga dunu da Ba: ilema nodone sia: ne gadosu, amola eno gadenene gabusiga: manoma gobele salasu oloda, amo gagoudane fasi. Ilia da Asila agoai liligi amola loboga hamoi ‘gode’ huluane gagagoudane fasili, gulu agoane hamone, amola dunu da ilima sia: ne gadosu, ilia ulidogone sali da: iya dudulisi.
The people broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence; he cut apart the incense altars that were above them. He broke the Asherah poles and the carved figures, and the cast metal figures in pieces until they were dust. He scattered the dust on the graves of those who had sacrificed to them.
5 E da ogogosu gobele salasu dunu ilia gasa amo oloda amoga ilia da musa: nodone sia: ne gadosu, amo da: iya gobele sali. Amo hamobeba: le, e da Yuda amola Yelusaleme fi ilia nigima: fadegamusa: dodofei.
He burned the bones of their priests on their altars. In this way, he cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.
6 Amo hou defele, e da moilai bai bagade amola gugunufinisi soge amo da Ma: na: se, Ifala: ime, Simione amola soge asili ga (north) Na: fadalaiga doaga: sa, amo soge huluane ganodini hamosu.
He did the same in the cities of Manasseh, Ephraim, and Simeon, all the way to Naphtali, and in the ruins that surrounded them.
7 E da ga (north) fi (Isala: ili) ilia soge ganodini, oloda amola ogogosu uda ‘gode’ agoai loboga hamoi liligi, amo huluane gagagoudane fasili, gulu agoane hamoi. E da gabusiga: manoma gobele salimusa: hamoi oloda huluane gagagoudane fasi. Amalu, e da Yelusalemega buhagi.
He broke down the altars, beat the Asherah poles and the carved images into powder, and cut apart all the incense altars throughout all the land of Israel. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
8 Yuda hina bagade Yousaia ea ouligibi ode 18 amoga, e da wadela: i ogogosu ‘gode’ma nodone sia: ne gadosu hou huluane fadegaiba: le, Debolo Diasu amola Yuda soge da nigima: dodofei dagoi ba: i. Amogalu, hina bagade Yousaia da dunu udiana amo Debolo Diasu dodoa: ma: ne asunasi. Ilia dio da Sia: ifa: ne (A: salaia egefe), Ma: iasia (Yelusaleme bisili ouligisu dunu) amola Youa (Youaha: se egefe. E da eagene bisilua dunu).
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, after Josiah had cleansed the land and the temple, he sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, Maaseiah, the governor of the city, and Joah son of Joahaz the secretary, to repair the house of Yahweh his God.
9 Muni amo Lifai dunu da Debolo Diasu ganodini lidi, ilia da gobele salasu ouligisudafa Hiligaiama ianusu. (Amo muni ilia da Ifala: ime fi, Ma: na: se fi amola Ga (north) Fi dunu eno, Yuda fi, Bediamini fi amola Yelusaleme esalebe fi, ilima lidi.)
They went to Hilkiah, the high priest, and entrusted to him the money that had been brought into the house of God, that the Levites, the guards of the doors, had gathered from Manasseh and Ephraim, from all the remnant of Israel, from all Judah and Benjamin, and from the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
10 Ilia da amo muni lidi, amo dunu udiana da Debolo Diasu amo bu buga: le gagusu ouligisu, ilima iasu.
They entrusted the money to the men who supervised the work on the temple of Yahweh. These men paid the workers who repaired and restored the temple.
11 Ouligisu dunu ilia da amo muni mogili diasu gagusu dunu amola gelega hahamosu dunu ilima iasu. Amola muni mogili amoga ilia da ifa da: fe amola gele amo Debolo bu buga: le gagumusa: , bidi lama: ne sia: i. Bai Yuda hina bagade ilia da noga: le hame ouligibiba: le, Debolo da dasai ba: i.
They paid it to the carpenters and builders to buy cut stone and timber for braces, and to make beams for the structures that some kings of Judah had let fall apart.
12 Amo hawa: hamosu ouligisu dunu da moloidafa dunu. Ilima ouligisu dunu da Lifai fi dunu biyaduyale gala. Ilia dio da Ya: iha: de amola Oubadaia (ela da Milalai sosogo fi dunu) amola Segalaia amola Misiala: me (ela da Gouha: de sosogo fi dunu). Lifai fi dunu huluane da medenegi gesami hea: lala dusu dunu ba: i.
The men did the work faithfully. Their supervisors Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, from the sons of the Kohathites. Other Levites, all of whom were very good musicians, closely directed the workmen.
13 Lifai fi dunu eno ilia da liligi gaguli ahoasu hawa: hamosu ouligisu, amola oda da eno hawa: hamosu ouligisu.
These Levites were in charge of those who carried building material and all other men who worked in any way. There were also Levites who were secretaries, administrators, and gate guards.
14 Ilia da muni ea sesei amoga lidili ahoana, Hiligaia da Hina Gode Ea Sema Dedei Meloa (Sema amo Gode da musa: Mousesema i) amo ba: i dagoi.
When they brought out the money that was brought into the house of Yahweh, Hilkiah the priest found the book of the law of Yahweh that had been given through Moses.
15 Hiligaia da Sia: ifa: nema amane sia: i, “Na da ‘Gode Ea Sema Dedei Meloa’ amo Debolo ganodini dialebe ba: i dagoi.” E da amo meloa Sia: ifa: nema I.
Hilkiah said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of Yahweh.” Hilkiah brought the book to Shaphan.
16 Sia: ifa: ne da amo meloa hina bagadema gaguli asili, ema amane sia: i, “Ninia da dia hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoi dagoi.
Shaphan took the book to the king, and also reported to him, saying, “Your servants are doing everything that has been entrusted to them.
17 Ninia da muni amo da Debolo Diasu ganodini dialu, amo lale, bu buga: le gagusu dunu amola ilia ouligisu dunu ilima i dagoi.”
They have emptied out the money that was found in the house of Yahweh, and they gave it into the hand of the supervisors and to the workmen.”
18 Amalalu, e da eno amane sia: i, “Na da meloa amo Hiligaia da nama i gagui diala.” Amola e da amo meloa hina bagade nabima: ne idi.
Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” Then Shaphan read in it to the king.
19 Hina bagade da meloa idibi nababeba: le, bagadewane fofogadigili, da: i dione, ea abula gadelale fasi.
It came about that when the king had heard the words of the law, he tore his clothes.
20 Amola e da gobele salasu dunu Hiligaia amola Ahaiga: me (Sia: ifa: ne egefe) amola A: gabo (Maiga: ia egefe) amola sia: dedesu dunu Sia: ifa: ne amola hina bagade hina: hawa: hamosu dunu A: sahaia, ilima amane hamoma: ne sia: i,
The king commanded Hilkiah, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah, his own servant, saying,
21 “Dilia asili, amo meloa ea olelesu bai dawa: ma: ne, Hina Gode Ea fada: i sia: hogolalu, nama amola dunu huluane amo da Isala: ili amola Yuda soge ganodini hame mugului esala, ninima adoma. Ninia aowalali da amo meloa ea hamoma: ne sia: i amo nabawane hame hamobeba: le, Hina Gode da ninima ougisa.”
“Go and ask Yahweh's will for me, and for those who are left in Israel and in Judah, because of the words of the book that has been found. For it is great, the anger of Yahweh that has been poured out on us. It is great, because our ancestors have not listened to the words of this book so as to obey all that was written in it.”
22 Hiligaia amola Ahaiga: me, A:gabo, Sia: ifa: ne, amola A: sahaia, ilia da balofede uda amo da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade la: idi gaheabolo gagui amo ganodini esalu, ea dio amo Halada amo ea fada: i sia: nabimusa: asi. (Halada egoa Sia: lamee da Debolo Diasu hadigi abula amo ouligisu). Ilia da Haladama amo meloa da ba: i dagoi olelei.
So Hilkiah, and those whom the king had commanded, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum son of Tokhath son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe (she lived in Jerusalem in the Second District), and they spoke with her in this way.
23 Halada da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia hina bagadema buhagili, Hina Gode Ea sia: si ema amane sia: ma,
She said to them, “This is what Yahweh, the God of Israel, says: Tell the man who sent you to me,
24 “Na da meloa amo hina bagade da idi, amoga gagabusu aligima: ne dedei defele, Na da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amola Yelusaleme fi dunu ilima se dabe imunu.
'This is what Yahweh says: See, I am about to bring disaster on this place and on its inhabitants, all the curses that have been written in the book that they have read before the king of Judah.
25 Ilia da Na higale, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ma gobele salasu hamobeba: le, Na ougima: ne hamoi dagoi. Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima Na ougi da gia: iwane heda: i dagoi, amola bu gumimu da hamedei.”
This will happen because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, and they have provoked me to anger by all that their hands have made, therefore, my anger will be poured out on this place, and it will not be extinguished.'
26 Be hina bagadema Na, Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode, da amane sia: sa, ‘Di da meloa ganodini dedei liligi nabi dagoi.
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to ask Yahweh what he should do, this is what you will say to him, 'Yahweh, the God of Israel says this: About the words that you heard,
27 Amola di da Na ba: ma: ne, sinidigili, dia hou fonobone, dia abula gadelale, dinanu. Bai di da Na sia: amo Na da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amola amoga fi dunu ilima se dabe imunu, amola Yelusaleme gugunufinisi dagoiba: le, dunu ilia da amo beda: ne fofogadigili ba: mu, amola Yelusaleme dio amoga gagabusu aligima: ne sia: mu, amo sia: nababeba: le, di da dia hou fonoboi. Na da dia sia: ne gadosu nabi dagoi.
because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before God when you heard his words against this place and its inhabitants, and because you have humbled yourself before me and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have listened to you—this is Yahweh's declaration—
28 Amola se dabe iasu amo Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima iasimu, amo da di amogai esalea, dia hame ba: mu. Na da di fa: no olofole bogoma: ne, logo doasimu.’” Sia: adola ahoasu dunu, ilia da amo sia: ne iasu hina bagade Yousaiama adomusa: , ema buhagi.
see, I will gather you to your ancestors. You will be gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes will not see any of the disaster I will bring on this place and its inhabitants.'” The men took this message back to the king.
29 Yuda hina bagade Yousaia da Yuda soge fi amola Yelusaleme fi ilia ouligisu dunu amo huluane gagadole,
Then the king sent messengers and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 ili amola gobele salasu dunu huluane, amola balofede dunu huluane amola fi dunu huluanedafa (bagade gagui dunu amola hame gagui dunu) ilia da Debolo Diasuga gilisili asi. Ilia si da: iya, hina bagade Yousaia da Gousa: su Meloa amo ilia da Debolo Diasu ba: i, amo ganodini dedei huluane ilima idili i.
Then the king went up to the house of Yahweh, and all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, Levites, and all the people, from great to small. He then read in their hearing all the words of the book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of Yahweh.
31 E da hina bagade duni bugi amo dafulili lelu, e da Hina Gode Ea sia: nabawane hamomusa: , dafawane ilegele sia: i. E da mae fisili, ea dogo amola asigi dawa: su huluane amoga, e da Hina Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i, amoma fa: no bobogemusa: , dafawane ilegele sia: i. Amo hamoma: ne sia: i amo da Gousa: su Meloa amo ganodini dedei, e da amo huluane nabawane hamomusa: , dafawane ilegele sia: i.
The king stood in his place and made a covenant before Yahweh, to walk after Yahweh, and to keep his commandments, his regulations, and his statutes, with all his heart and all his soul, to obey the words of the covenant that were written in this book.
32 Amola e da Bediamini fi amola dunu huluane Yelusalemega esalu, amo defele hamomusa: , dafawane ilegele sia: musa: lologei. Amaiba: le, Yelusaleme fi dunu da Gousa: su amo ilia aowalalia Gode da ilima hamoi, amo hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamomusa: sia: i.
He caused all who were found in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand by the covenant. The inhabitants of Jerusalem acted in obedience to the covenant of God, the God of their ancestors.
33 Amalalu, Yousaia da wadela: idafa loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi huluane Isala: ili soge ganodini dialu, amo huluane gugunufinisisu. Amo ea esalusu eso huluane ganodini, e da ea fi dunu ilia aowalalia Hina Gode amo Ea hawa: hamosu hamoma: ne sesei.
Josiah took away all the disgusting things from the lands that belonged to the people of Israel. He made everyone in Israel worship Yahweh, their God. For all of his days, they did not turn away from following Yahweh, the God of their ancestors.
