2 Ruodhi 22

1 Josia ne ja-higni aboro kane obedo ruoth kendo norito pinyno kodak Jerusalem kuom higni piero adek gachiel. Min mare ne nyinge Jedida nyar Adaya, mane aa Bozkath.

Iosiah was eight yeere olde when he beganne to reigne, and hee reigned one and thirtie yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Iedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozcath.

2 Timbe Josia ne longʼo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kendo nowuotho e yore duto mag Daudi kwar-gi, ma ok olokore kongʼiyo korachwich kata koracham.

And hee did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the wayes of Dauid his father, and bowed neither to the right hand, nor to the left.

3 E higa mar apar gaboro mar lochne, ruoth Josia nooro jagoro ma en Shafan wuod Azalia, ma wuod Meshulam, e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kowacho niya,

And in the eighteenth yeere of King Iosiah, the King sent Shaphan the sonne of Azaliah the sonne of Meshullam the chanceller to ye house of the Lord, saying,

4 “Dhiyo ir Hilkia jadolo maduongʼ kendo oik pesa mosekel e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane jorit dhoot nosechoko kuom ji.

Goe vp to Hilkiah the high Priest, that hee may summe the siluer which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the keepers of the doore haue gathered of the people.

5 We mondo giketgi e lwet joma otelo ne gedo mar hekalu, kendo mondo jogi ochul joma loso kuonde momukore mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.

And let them deliuer it into the hande of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord: let them giue it to them that worke in the house of the Lord, to repaire the decayed places of the house:

6 Joma onego chul gin jopa bepe, jogedo kod jopa kidi. Bende konegi gingʼiew bao kod kite mopa milosogo kuonde mokethore ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.

To wit, vnto the artificers and carpenters and masons, and to bye timber, and hewed stone to repaire the house.

7 To kik penjgi kaka gitiyo gi pesa momigi nikech gin joma ogen.”

Howebeit, let no rekoning bee made with them of the money, that is deliuered into their hand: for they deale faithfully.

8 Hilkia jadolo maduongʼ nowachone Shafan ma jagoro niya, “Aseyudo kitap chike e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.” Nomiye mosome.

And Hilkiah the high Priest sayde vnto Shaphan the chanceller, I haue found the booke of the Lawe in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gaue the booke to Shaphan, and hee reade it.

9 Eka Shafan ma jagoro nodhi ir ruoth mowachone niya, “Jodongi osechulo pesa mane nitiere e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo gisechiwogi e lwet jotich kod jotend hekalu.”

So Shaphan the chanceller came to ye King, and brought him word againe, and saide, Thy seruants haue gathered the money, that was found in the house, and haue deliuered it vnto the hands of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord.

10 Eka Shafan jagoro nonyiso ruoth niya, “Hilkia janabi osemiya kitabu.” Kendo Shafan nosomo kitabuno e nyim ruoth.

Also Shaphan the chanceller shewed the King saying, Hilkiah the Priest hath deliuered me a booke. And Shaphan read it before the King.

11 Kane ruoth owinjo weche manie Kitap Chik, noyiecho lepe.

And when the King had heard the wordes of the booke of the Law, he rent his clothes.

12 Nochiwo chikegi ne Hilkia jadolo, Ahikam wuod Shafan, Akbor wuod Mikaya, Shafan jagoro kod Asaya jarit mar ruoth kowachonegi niya,

Therefore the King commanded Hilkiah the Priest, and Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, and Achbor the sonne of Michaiah, and Shaphan the chanceller, and Asahiah the Kings seruant, saying,

13 “Dhiuru upenj Jehova Nyasaye gima biro timorena, kendo ni oganda kod jo-Juda duto kaluwore gi gik mondiki e kitabu mwaseyudoni. Mirimb Jehova Nyasaye maliel ka mach osechomowa nikech kwerewa ok oseluoro weche mawuok e kitabuni; kendo ok gisetimo timbe moluwore gi gik moko duto mondiki kuomwa.”

Go ye and inquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Iudah concerning the wordes of this booke that is founde: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against vs, because our fathers haue not obeyed the wordes of this booke, to doe according vnto all that which is written therein for vs.

14 Hilkia jadolo, Ahikam, Akbor, Shafan kod Asaya nodhi wuoyo gi Hulda janabi madhako, mane chi Shalum wuod Tikva, ma wuod Harhas, jarit kar keno mar lep lemo. Nodak Jerusalem, e gwengʼ mar ariyo.

So Hilkiah the Priest and Ahikam, and Achbor and Shaphan, and Asahiah went vnto Huldah the Prophetesse the wife of Shallum, ye sonne of Tikuah, the sonne of Harhas keeper of the wardrobe: (and she dwelt in Ierusalem in the colledge) and they communed with her.

15 Hulda jadolo madhako nowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho: Nyisuru ngʼatno mane oorou ira niya,

And shee answered them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Tel the man that sent you to mee,

16 ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Abiro kelo masira e pinyni kendo kuom joma odakie, kaluwore gi gik moko duto ma ruodh Juda osesomo mondiki e kitabuni.

Thus sayth the Lord, Behold, I wil bring euill vpon this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, euen al the words of the booke which ye King of Iudah hath read,

17 Mirimba nosik kuom pinyni kendo ok norum nikech gisejwangʼa ka giwangʼo ubani ne nyiseche manono kendo ka gimiya mirima kuom lamo nyiseche mopa gi lwedo.’

Because they haue forsaken mee, and haue burnt incense vnto other gods, to anger me with all ye works of their hands: my wrath also shalbe kindled against this place and shall not be queched:

18 Wachneuru ruodh Juda, mane oorou mondo upenja gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho kaluwore gi weche musewinjo.

But to the King of Iudah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, so shall ye say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel, The wordes that thou hast heard, shall come to passe.

19 Nikech ne uwinjo wach kendo uboloru e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kane uwinjo weche mane owacho kuom Jerusalem kod joma odakie ni gibiro yudo kwongʼ mi gidongʼ kama ojwangʼ, kendo nikech ne uyiecho lepu kuywak e nyima, omiyo asewinjo ywaku, Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

But because thine heart did melt, and thou hast humbled thy selfe before the Lord, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants of the same, to wit, that it should be destroyed and accursed, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me, I haue also heard it, saith the Lord.

20 Kuom mano, anami iywe gi kwereni kendo noiki gi kwe. Ok inine masiche mabiro kelone pinyni.’” Omiyo negidwoko wach ne ruoth.

Beholde therefore, I wil gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be put in thy graue in peace, and thine eyes shall not see all the euil, which I will bring vpon this place. Thus they brought the King worde againe.
