1 Yosiya anachita chikondwerero cha Paska wa Yehova mu Yerusalemu, ndipo mwana wankhosa wa Paska anaphedwa pa tsiku la khumi ndi chinayi la mwezi woyamba.
And Josias kept a passover to the Lord his God; and sacrificed the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
2 Iye anasankha ansembe pa maudindo awo ndipo anawalimbikitsa pa ntchito ya mʼnyumba ya Yehova.
And he appointed the priests at their charges, and encouraged them for the services of the house of the Lord.
3 Iye anati kwa Alevi amene amalangiza Aisraeli onse omwe anadzipatula kwa Yehova: Ikani bokosi lopatulika mʼNyumba ya Mulungu amene Solomoni mwana wa Davide mfumu ya Israeli anamanga. Lisamanyamulidwe pa mapewa anu. Tsopano tumikirani Yehova Mulungu wanu ndi anthu ake Aisraeli.
And he told the Levites that were able [to act] in all Israel, that they should consecrate themselves to the Lord: and they put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built: and the king said, You must not carry anything on your shoulders: now then minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.
4 Mukhale mʼmagulu anu molingana ndi mabanja anu, molingana ndi momwe analembera Davide mfumu ya Israeli ndiponso mwana wake Solomoni.
And prepare yourselves according to the houses of your families, and according to your daily courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and [the order] by the hand of his son Solomon.
5 “Muziyima ku malo opatulika pamodzi ndi gulu la Alevi oyimira gulu lililonse lalingʼono la mabanja a abale anu amene ndi anthu wamba.
And stand you in the house according to the divisions of the houses of your families for your brethren the sons of the people; [so] also let there be for the Levites a division of the house of their family.
6 Muzipha ana ankhosa a Paska, muzidzipatula nokha ndi kuwakonzera abale anu ana ankhosa awo, kuchita zimene Yehova analamulira mwa Mose.”
And kill you the passover, and prepare [it] for your brethren, to do according to the word of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
7 Yosiya anapereka kwa anthu wamba onse ana ankhosa ndi ana ambuzi okwanira 30,000 ndi ngʼombe zazimuna 3,000, zopereka za Paska zonse zochokera pa chuma chake cha mfumu.
And Josias gave as an offering to the children of the people, sheep, and lambs, and kids of the young of the goats, all for the passover, [even for] all that were found, in number [amounting to] thirty thousand, and three thousand calves, these [were] of the substance of the king.
8 Akuluakulu akenso anapereka mwaufulu kwa anthu ndi kwa ansembe ndi Alevi. Hilikiya, Zekariya ndi Yehieli oyangʼanira ntchito ya mʼNyumba ya Mulungu anapereka kwa ansembe zopereka za Paska 2,600 ndi ngʼombe 300.
And his princes gave an offering to the people, and to the priests, and to the Levites: and Chelcias and Zacharias and Jeiel the chief men gave to the priests of the house of God, they even gave for the passover sheep, and lambs, and kids, two thousand six hundred, and three hundred calves.
9 Konaniya nayenso pamodzi ndi Semaya ndi Netaneli, abale ake ndi Hasabiya, Yeiyeli ndi Yozabadi, atsogoleri a Alevi, anapereka nsembe za Paska 5,000 ndi ngʼombe 500 kwa Alevi.
And Chonenias, and Banaeas, and Samaeas, and Nathanael his brother, and Asabias, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, gave an offering to the Levites for the passover, of five thousand sheep and five hundred calves.
10 Mwambo unakonzedwa ndipo ansembe anayima pamalo pawo pamodzi ndi Alevi mʼmagulu awo monga mfumu inalamulira.
And the service was duly ordered, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the command of the king.
11 Ana ankhosa a Paska anaphedwa ndipo ansembe anawaza magazi amene anaperekedwa kwa iwo pamene Alevi anali kusenda nyamazo.
And they killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hand, and the Levites flayed [the victims].
12 Iwo anayika padera nsembe zopsereza kuti azipereke kwa magulu angʼonoangʼono a mabanja a anthu kuti apereke kwa Yehova monga zinalembedwa mʼbuku la Mose. Ndipo anachita chimodzimodzi ndi ngʼombe.
And they prepared the whole burnt offering to give to them, according to the division by the houses of families, [even] to the sons of the people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses.
13 Anawotcha nyama za Paska monga momwe zinalembedwera ndi kuwiritsa zopereka zopatulika mʼmiphika, mʼmitsuko ndi mʼziwaya ndipo anazipereka mofulumira kwa anthu onse.
And thus [they did] till the morning. And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance; and boiled the holy [pieces] in copper vessels and caldrons, and [the feast] went on well, and they quickly served all the children of the people.
14 Izi zitatha, anakonza zawo ndi za ansembe chifukwa ansembe, zidzukulu za Aaroni, anali otanganidwa kupereka nsembe zopsereza ndi mafuta a nyama mpaka madzulo. Choncho Alevi amakonza zawo ndi za ansembe, ana a Aaroni.
And after they had prepared for themselves and for the priests, for the priests [were engaged] in offering the whole burnt offerings and the fat until night, then the Levites prepared for themselves, and for their brethren the sons of Aaron.
15 Anthu oyimba nyimbo, zidzukulu za Asafu, anali pa malo awo potsata zomwe analemba Davide, Asafu, Hemani ndi Yedutuni mlosi wa mfumu. Alonda apazipata anali pa chipata chilichonse ndipo kunali kosafunika kuti achoke pa ntchito yawo, poti abale awo Alevi ankawakonzera zonse.
And the sons of Asaph the psalm-singers [were] at their post according to the commands of David, and Asaph, and Aeman, and Idithom, the prophets of the king: also, the chiefs and the porters of the several gates; —it was not for them to stir from the service of the holy things, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.
16 Kotero pa nthawi imeneyi ntchito yonse ya Yehova ya chikondwerero cha Paska ndi nsembe zopsereza pa guwa la Yehova inachitika monga analamulira mfumu Yosiya.
So all the service of the Lord was duly ordered and prepared in that day, for keeping the passover, and offering the whole burnt sacrifices on the altar of the Lord, according to the command of king Josias.
17 Aisraeli amene analipo anachita chikondwerero cha Paska pa nthawi imeneyi ndi kuchita mwambo wa chikondwerero cha Buledi Wopanda Yisiti, kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri.
And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
18 Paska yofanana ndi iyi sinachitikepo ku Israeli kuyambira nthawi ya Samueli ndipo palibe mmodzi mwa mafumu a Israeli anachitapo chikondwerero cha Paska ngati anachitira Yosiya pamodzi ndi ansembe, Alevi ndi Ayuda onse ndi Aisraeli amene anali pamodzi ndi anthu a mu Yerusalemu.
And there was no passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, or any king of Israel: they kept not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda and Israel that were present, and the dwellers in Jerusalem, kept to the Lord.
19 Chikondwerero cha Paska ichi chinachitika mʼchaka cha 18 cha ulamuliro wa Yosiya.
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias this passover was kept, after all these things that Josias did in the house.
20 Zimenezi zitachitika, pamene Yosiya anakonzanso Nyumba ya Mulungu, Neko mfumu ya Igupto inapita kukachita nkhondo ku Karikemesi ku mtsinje wa Yufurate, ndipo Yosiya anapita kukamenyana naye.
And Pharao Nechao king of Egypt went up against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates, and king Josias went to meet him.
21 Koma Neko anatumiza amithenga kwa iye kunena kuti, “Kodi pali mkangano wanji pakati pa iwe ndi ine, iwe mfumu ya Yuda? Ine sindikuthira nkhondo iwe pa nthawi ino, koma nyumba imene ndili nayo pa nkhondo. Mulungu wandiwuza kuti ndifulumize choncho leka kutsutsana ndi Mulungu amene ali ndi ine, mwina adzakuwononga.”
And he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O king of Juda? I am not come today to war against you; and God has told me to hasten: beware of the God that is with me, lest he destroy you.
22 Komabe Yosiya sanatembenuke kumusiya iyeyo, koma anadzizimbayitsa ndi kukalowa mʼnkhondo. Iye sanamvere zimene Neko ananena molamulidwa ndi Mulungu koma anapita kukamenyana naye ku chigwa ku Megido.
However, Josias turned not his face from him, but strengthened himself to fight against him, and listened not to the words of Nechao by the mouth of God, and he came to fight in the plain of Mageddo.
23 Anthu oponya mivi analasa mfumu Yosiya, ndipo iye anawuza akuluakulu ake, “Chotseni. Ndavulazidwa kwambiri.”
And the archers shot at king Josias; and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am severely wounded.
24 Choncho anamuchotsa iye mʼgaleta lake, ndipo anamuyika mʼgaleta lina limene anali nalo ndipo anabwera naye ku Yerusalemu kumene anamwalirira. Iye anayikidwa mʼmanda a makolo ake. Ndipo Ayuda ndi Yerusalemu yense anamulira.
And his servants lifted him out of the chariot, and put him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried with his fathers: and all Juda and Jerusalem lamented over Josias.
25 Yeremiya anapeka nyimbo za maliro chifukwa cha Yosiya, ndipo mpaka lero lino amuna ndi akazi onse oyimba amakumbukira Yosiya pa nyimbo zawo za maliro. Izi zinakhala mwambo mu Israeli ndipo zinalembedwa mʼNyimbo za Maliro.
And Jeremias mourned over Josias, and all the chief men and chief women uttered a lamentation over Josias until this day: and they made it an ordinance for Israel, and, behold, it is written in the lamentations.
26 Zochitika zina za ulamuliro wa Yosiya ndi ntchito za kudzipereka kwake, monga zinalembedwa mʼMalamulo a Yehova,
And the rest of the acts of Josias, and his hope, are written in the law of the Lord.
27 zochitika zonse, kuyambira pachiyambi mpaka pa mapeto, zalembedwa mʼbuku la mafumu a Israeli ndi Yuda.
And his acts, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
