2 Kings 22
1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
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.
2 He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, and walked in all the ways of David his father, and did not turn away to the right hand or to the left.
Timbe Josia ne longʼo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye kendo nowuotho e yore duto mag Daudi kwar-gi, ma ok olokore kongʼiyo korachwich kata koracham.
3 In the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the LORD’s house, saying,
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,
4 “Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may count the money which is brought into the LORD’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
“Dhiyo ir Hilkia jadolo maduongʼ kendo oik pesa mosekel e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane jorit dhoot nosechoko kuom ji.
5 Let them deliver it into the hand of the workers who have the oversight of the LORD’s house; and let them give it to the workers who are in the LORD’s house, to repair the damage to the house,
We mondo giketgi e lwet joma otelo ne gedo mar hekalu, kendo mondo jogi ochul joma loso kuonde momukore mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
6 to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.
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.
7 However, no accounting shall be asked of them for the money delivered into their hand, for they deal faithfully.”
To kik penjgi kaka gitiyo gi pesa momigi nikech gin joma ogen.”
8 Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the LORD’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
Hilkia jadolo maduongʼ nowachone Shafan ma jagoro niya, “Aseyudo kitap chike e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.” Nomiye mosome.
9 Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hands of the workmen who have the oversight of the LORD’s house.”
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.”
10 Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Then Shaphan read it before the king.
Eka Shafan jagoro nonyiso ruoth niya, “Hilkia janabi osemiya kitabu.” Kendo Shafan nosomo kitabuno e nyim ruoth.
11 When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes.
Kane ruoth owinjo weche manie Kitap Chik, noyiecho lepe.
12 The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Achbor the son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying,
Nochiwo chikegi ne Hilkia jadolo, Ahikam wuod Shafan, Akbor wuod Mikaya, Shafan jagoro kod Asaya jarit mar ruoth kowachonegi niya,
13 “Go inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is the LORD’s wrath that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.”
“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.”
14 So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.
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.
15 She said to them, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Tell the man who sent you to me,
Hulda jadolo madhako nowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach jo-Israel wacho: Nyisuru ngʼatno mane oorou ira niya,
16 “The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read.
‘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.
17 Because they have forsaken me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it will not be quenched.’”
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.’
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him, “The LORD the God of Israel says, ‘Concerning the words which you have heard,
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.
19 because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes and wept before me, I also have heard you,’ says the LORD.
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.
20 ‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” So they brought this message back to the king.
Kuom mano, anami iywe gi kwereni kendo noiki gi kwe. Ok inine masiche mabiro kelone pinyni.’” Omiyo negidwoko wach ne ruoth.
