2 Weche Mag Ndalo 30

1 Hezekia nooro wach ni jo-Israel duto gi jo-Juda kendo nondiko barupe ni jo-Efraim kod jo-Manase kokwayogi mondo gibi Jerusalem e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mondo gitim Sap Pasaka ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel.

Then sent Hezekiah to all Israel and Judah, and he also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, to prepare the passover-sacrifice unto the Lord the God of Israel.

2 Ruoth gi jodonge kod joma nochokore Jerusalem nowinjore ni gitim Sap Pasaka e dwe mar ariyo.

And the king held a consultation, as also his princes, and all the assembly in Jerusalem, to prepare the passover-sacrifice in the second month.

3 Ne ok ginyal time e kinde mane onego otime nimar jodolo moromo ne pok opwodhore to ji bende ne pok ochokore Jerusalem.

For they were not able to prepare it at that time; because the priests had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, nor had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.

4 Chenroni ne berne ruoth kod joma nochokore.

And the thing seemed right in the eyes of the king and in the eyes of all the assembly.

5 Negingʼado bura mondo giland wachni e Israel duto kochakore Bersheba nyaka Dan kagiluongo ji mondo gibi Jerusalem otim Pasaka mar Jehova Nyasaye Nyasach Israel nikech ne pok otime gi ji mangʼeny kaka ondiki.

So they established a decree to cause a proclamation to be made throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba' even as far as Dan, that they should come to prepare the passover-sacrifice unto thy Lord the God of Israel at Jerusalem; because for a long time past they had not prepared it as it was written,

6 Omiyo joote nodhi Israel gi Juda duto kaka ruoth nochiko ka gitingʼo barupe mane oa ir ruoth kod jodonge mondikie niya, “Jo-Israel dwoguru ir Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Ibrahim gi Isaka kod Israel mondo mi oduog iru un joma odongʼ mosetony e lwet ruodhi mag Asuria.

So the runners went with the letters from the hand of the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the command of the king, saying, O children of Israel, return unto the Lord the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, and he will return to the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the power of the kings of Assyria.

7 Kik ubed ka kwereu gi oweteu mane oweyo luwo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwereu momiyo gidoko gima iluoro mana kaka uneno sani.

And be net like your fathers, and like your brethren, who acted faithlessly against the Lord the God of their fathers, wherefore he gave them up to become an [object of] astonishment, as ye see.

8 Kik ubed gi tok matek kaka kwereu nobedo, bolreuru ni Jehova Nyasaye. Biuru e kama ler mar lemo ma osepwodho nyaka chiengʼ. Tineuru Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu mondo mi mirimbe mager owuog kuomu.

Now do ye not harden your necks, like your fathers: hold out your hand unto the Lord, and come unto his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever, and serve the Lord your God, and so will he turn away from you the fierceness of his wrath.

9 Ka udwogo ir Jehova Nyasaye eka joweteu gi nyithindu notimnegi ngʼwono mi nowegi giduogi e pinygi kod joma noterogi e twech nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu en jangʼwono kendo en gihera maduongʼ omiyo ok noloknu ngʼeye ka udwogo ire.”

For If ye return unto the Lord, your brethren and your children will find mercy in the presence of their captors, so that they may return to this land; for the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his countenance from you, if ye return unto him.

10 Joote nodhi e dala ka dala e piny Efraim gi Manase duto nyaka ochopo Zebulun to ji nocharogi kendo nyierogi.

And as the runners were passing from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Menasseh and as far as Zebulun, they were laughing them to scorn, and mocking at them.

11 To kata kamano jo-Asher moko kod jo-Manase kaachiel gi jo-Zebulun nobolore modhi Jerusalem.

Nevertheless some men of Asher and Menasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.

12 To e piny Juda bende ema ne lwet Nyasaye ne nitie kuom jogo mondo omigi bedo e paro achiel mondo gitim gima ruoth gi jodonge nochiko kaluwore gi wach mar Jehova Nyasaye.

Also over Judah came the hand of God to give unto them one heart to do the command of the king and of the princes, by the word of the Lord.

13 Ji mangʼeny nochokore Jerusalem e dwe mar ariyo mondo gitim Sap Makati ma ok oketie Thowi.

And there was gathered together at Jerusalem a numerous people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great assembly.

14 Negigolo kende mag misango miwangʼoe liswa mane nitie Jerusalem kaachiel gi kende mag misango miwangʼoe ubani mi giwitogi e Holo mar Kidron.

And they arose and removed the altars which were in Jerusalem, and all the vessels for burning incense did they take away, and they threw them into the brook Kidron.

15 Ne giyangʼo nyarombo mar Pasaka Chiengʼ mar apar gangʼwen mar dwe mar ariyo jodolo kod jo-Lawi noyudo wichkuot omiyo negipwodhore mi gikelo misengini miwangʼo pep e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.

And they slaughtered the passover-sacrifice on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt-offerings unto the house of the Lord.

16 Bangʼe negikawo keregi mapile kaka ondikie chike Musa ngʼat Nyasaye. Jodolo nokiro remo manomigi kod jo-Lawi.

And they stood on their station after their prescribed manner, according to the law of Moses the man of God, the priest sprinkling the blood, [which they received] out of the hand of the Levites.

17 Nikech ji mangʼeny ei oganda ne pod ok opwodhore, nochuno jo-Lawi mondo oyangʼ nyirombe mag Sap Pasaka ni jogo duto mane ok ler kendo ne ok nyal chiwo nyirombegi ni Jehova Nyasaye.

For there were many in the assembly that had not sanctified themselves: therefore the Levites had the charge of the slaughtering of the passover sacrifices for every one that was not clean, to sanctify [the same] unto the Lord.

18 Kata obedo ni ji mathoth manowuok e piny Efraim gi Manase gi Isakar kod Zebulun ne ok opwodhore, to kata kamano negichamo Pasaka ka ok giluwo gima nondiki. To Hezekia nolamonigi kawacho niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye mangʼwon owene ngʼato angʼata,

For a large portion of the people, even many out of Ephraim, and Menasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, but ate the passover not as it is written. However Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The Lord who is good will grant pardon for this.

19 moseketo chunye mondo oluw Nyasaye ma en Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kwerene kata obedo ni ok oler kaluwore gi chike mag kama ler mar lemo.”

To every one that hath directed his heart to seek God, the Lord the God of his fathers; though he be not [cleansed] according to the purification of the sanctuary.

20 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nowinjo kwayo mar Hezekia mochango jogo.

And the Lord hearkened to Hezekiah, and he healed the people.

21 Jo-Israel mane nitiere Jerusalem notimo Sap Makati ma ok oketie Thowi kuom ndalo abiriyo ka gimor gi-ilo maduongʼ ka jo-Lawi kod jodolo werne Jehova Nyasaye pile ka pile ka gigoyo thumbe mag pak mar Jehova Nyasaye.

And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem celebrated the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great joy; and the Levites and the priests praised the Lord day by day, with loud instruments before the Lord.

22 Hezekia nojiwo jo-Lawi duto mane ongʼeyo tich mar tiyo ne Jehova Nyasaye. Kuom ndalo abiriyo negichamo chiemo mane opognigi kendo negitimo misango mar lalruok kagipako Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach kweregi.

And Hezekiah spoke comfortingly unto all the Levites that had good intelligence of the Lord: and they ate the festive-offerings during seven days, offering peace-offerings, and making confession to the Lord the God of their fathers.

23 Jogo mane ochokore nowinjore mondo gimed timo sawoni ndalo abiriyo mamoko, omiyo kuom ndalo abiriyo mamoko negitimo kamano gi mor.

And the whole assembly took counsel to celebrate other seven days: and they celebrated [these] seven days with joy.

24 Hezekia ruodh Juda nochiwo ni joma nochokore rwedhi alufu achiel kod rombe gi diek alufu abiriyo, to jodonge nochiwonegi rwedhi alufu achiel kod rombe gi diek alufu apar. Jodolo mangʼeny ahinya nopwodhore.

For Hezekiah king of Judah had provided for the assembly one thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes had provided for the assembly one thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and the priests sanctified themselves in great numbers.

25 Joma nochokore duto mane oa Juda kaachiel gi jodolo kod jo-Lawi kod joma nochokore koa Israel kaachiel gi jodak mane odak Israel kod mane odak Juda ne mor gi ilo.

And thus rejoiced all the assembly of Judah, and the priests and the Levites, and all the assembly that was come out of Israel, and the strangers that were come out of the land of Israel, and those that dwelt in Judah.

26 Ne nitie mor maduongʼ Jerusalem mapok nobedo Jerusalem chakre ndalo Solomon wuod Daudi ma ruodh Israel.

And there was great joy in Jerusalem: for since the time of Solomon the son of David the king of Israel had the like not been in Jerusalem.

27 Jodolo gi jo-Lawi nochungʼ mondo ogwedh ji, kendo Nyasaye nowinjogi nikech lembgi nochopo e polo kar dakne maler.

Then arose the priests the Levites and blessed the people: and their voice was listened to, and their prayer came to His holy dwelling-place, even unto heaven.
