2 Chronicles 29
1 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
Ni-roapolo taoñe lim’ amby t’Iekizkia te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe roapolo taoñe sive amby e Ierosalaime ao: i Abiià ana’ i Zekarià ty tahinan-drene’e.
2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father David had done.
Le nanao ty fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà, manahake ze he’e nanoe’ i Davide rae’e.
3 In the first month of the first year of his reign, Hezekiah opened and repaired the doors of the house of the LORD.
Ie amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ey, amy volam-baloha’ey, le sinoka’e o lalambein’ anjomba’ Iehovào vaho nisomontie’e.
4 Then he brought in the priests and Levites and gathered them in the square on the east side.
Nampiheove’e ao o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, le natonto’e ho raik’ amy toetse mangadagadañe atiñanañey,
5 “Listen to me, O Levites,” he said. “Consecrate yourselves now and consecrate the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers. Remove from the Holy Place every impurity.
vaho nanoa’e ty hoe, Mijanjiña ahy ry nte-Levio, mampiavaha vatañe henaneo, le ampiavaho ty anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ areo vaho ondroho boak’ an-toetse miavake ao ze atao leotse.
6 For our fathers were unfaithful and did evil in the sight of the LORD our God. They abandoned Him, turned their faces away from the dwelling place of the LORD, and turned their backs on Him.
Fa nikitro-karatiañe naho nanao haloloañe am-pihaino’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentikañe o roaentikañeo naho naforintse’ iereo naho nitoli-daharañe vaho tsinambolitio’ iereo ty fimoneña’ Iehovà.
7 They also shut the doors of the portico and extinguished the lamps. They did not burn incense or present burnt offerings in the Holy Place of the God of Israel.
Mbore narindri’ iareo o lalambein-davarangañeo naho nakipeke o failoo naho tsy nañemboke, tsy nañenga soroñe aman’ Añahare’ Israele amy toetse masiñey.
8 Therefore, the wrath of the LORD has fallen upon Judah and Jerusalem, and He has made them an object of terror, horror, and mockery, as you can see with your own eyes.
Toly ndra nifetsak’ am’ Iehoda naho am’ Ierosalaime ty haviñera’ Iehovà, le natolo’e ho fangebahebahañe naho halatsañe naho fikosihañe, manahake o isam-pihaino’ areoo.
9 For behold, this is why our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and daughters and wives are in captivity.
Hehe te nakoròvom-pibara o roaen-tikañeo naho am-pandrohizañe añe o ana-dahintikañeo naho o anak’ ampelan-tikañeo vaho o tañanjomban-tikañeo, ty amy zay.
10 Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, so that His fierce anger will turn away from us.
Aa le an-troko ao henaneo ty hifañina am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, hampihankañe aman-tika i haviñera’e miforoforoy.
11 Now, my sons, do not be negligent, for the LORD has chosen you to stand before Him, to serve Him, to minister before Him, and to burn incense.”
O ry anako, ko mihenekeneke henaneo; fa jinobo’ Iehovà nahareo hijohañe añatrefa’e, hiatrak’ aze naho ho mpitoro’e vaho hañembok’ ama’e.
12 Then the Levites set to work: Mahath son of Amasai and Joel son of Azariah from the Kohathites; Kish son of Abdi and Azariah son of Jehallelel from the Merarites; Joah son of Zimmah and Eden son of Joah from the Gershonites;
Niongak’ amy zao o nte-Levio, i Makate, ana’ i Amasay naho Ioele ana’ i Azarià amo ana’ o nte-Kehàteo; le amo ana’ i Merario: i Kise, ana’ i Abdý naho i Azarià ana’ Iehalelale; le amo nte-Gersoneo, Ioak’ ana’ i Zimà naho i Edene ana’ Ioake;
13 Shimri and Jeuel from the Elizaphanites; Zechariah and Mattaniah from the Asaphites;
le amo ana’ i Elitsafaneo; i Simrý naho Ieiele; le amo ana’ i Asafeo; i Zekarià naho i Matanià;
14 Jehiel and Shimei from the Hemanites; and Shemaiah and Uzziel from the Jeduthunites.
le amo ana’ i Hemaneo; Iehiele naho i Simey; vaho amo ana’ Iedotoneo, i Semaià naho i Oziele.
15 When they had assembled their brothers and consecrated themselves, they went in to cleanse the house of the LORD, according to the command of the king by the words of the LORD.
Le navori’ iareo o roahalai’eo, le nañamasim-batañe vaho nimoak’ ao, ty amy lili’ i mpanjakay ty amo tsara’ Iehovào, hañalio ty anjomba’ Iehovà.
16 So the priests went inside the house of the LORD to cleanse it, and they brought out to the courtyard all the unclean things that they found in the temple of the LORD. Then the Levites took these things and carried them out to the Kidron Valley.
Nizilik’ amy toetse añate’ i anjomba’ Iehovày o mpisoroñeo, hañalio aze, le nakareñe ze fonga leotse nizoe’ iereo an-kiboho’ Iehovà ao mb’ an-kiririsan’ anjomba’ Iehovà ey, le rinambe’ o nte-Levio naho nandese’e mb’ an-torahan-Kidrone añe.
17 They began the consecration on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they reached the portico of the LORD. For eight more days they consecrated the house of the LORD itself, finishing on the sixteenth day of the first month.
Aa ie niorotse nampiavake amy androm-baloha’ i volam-baloha’eiy, le pok’ amy lavaranga’ Iehovày iereo amy androm-pahavalo’ i volañeiy; le valo andro ty nampiavahe’ iereo ty anjomba’ Iehovà; vaho nifonire’ iareo amy andro faha folo-eneñ’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’eiy.
18 Then they went in to King Hezekiah and reported, “We have cleansed the entire house of the LORD, the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the table of the showbread with all its utensils.
Aa le niheo mb’am’ Iekizkia mpanjaka mb’eo iereo, nanao ty hoe: Fa niliove’ay iaby ty anjomba’ Iehovà naho i kitrelim-pisoroñañey naho o fana’e iabio naho i lataba’ o mofo-piatrekeoy vaho o fana’e iabio.
19 Moreover, we have prepared and consecrated all the articles that King Ahaz in his unfaithfulness cast aside during his reign. They are now in front of the altar of the LORD.”
Mbore nivaoe’ay naho navahe’ay o fanake iaby nahifi’ i Ahkazeo, ie nanao haloloañe amy fifehea’ey; le oniño t’ie fa aolo’ i kitreli’ Iehovày.
20 Early the next morning King Hezekiah gathered the city officials and went up to the house of the LORD.
Nañaleñaleñe t’Iekizkia, mpanjaka nanontoñe o roandria’ i rovaio vaho nionjomb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo,
21 They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats as a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And the king commanded the priests, the descendants of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the LORD.
le ninday bania fito naho añondrilahy fito naho vik’ añondry fito vaho oselahy fito ho fañeferan-kakeo’ i fifeheañey naho i toetse masiñey vaho Iehodà. Le linili’e o mpisoroñeo, o ana’ i Aharoneo, t’ie hengaeñe amy kitreli’ Iehovày.
22 So they slaughtered the bulls, and the priests took the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They slaughtered the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. And they slaughtered the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
Aa le linenta’ iareo i bania rey naho rinambe’ o mpisoroñeo ty lio’e, le nadasi’ iereo amy kitreliy; le linenta’ iereo i añondrilahy rey naho nadasi’ iereo amy kitrelio ty lio’e; linenta’ iareo ka i vik’añondry rey vaho nadasi’ iareo amy kitreliy ty lio’e.
23 Then they brought the goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly, who laid their hands on them.
Le nañarivoe’ iereo i oselahy rey ho ami’ty fañeferan-kakeo, añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho i fivoriy, le nanampeza’ iareo fitañe;
24 And the priests slaughtered the goats and put their blood on the altar for a sin offering, to make atonement for all Israel, because the king had ordered the burnt offering and the sin offering for all Israel.
naho linenta’ o mpisoroñeo le nanao fañeferan-kakeo ambone’ i kitreliy amy lio’ey, hijebañañe Israele iaby; fa linili’ i mpanjakay te hanoeñe ho a Israele iaby i soroñey naho i fañeferan-kakeoy.
25 Hezekiah stationed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, harps, and lyres according to the command of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and of Nathan the prophet. For the command had come from the LORD through His prophets.
Le nampijohañe’e añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao o nte-Levio reketse fikontsañañe naho jejo-bory vaho marovany ty amy lili’ i Davidey naho i Gade mpioni’ i mpanjakay naho i Natane mpitokiy vaho toe lili’ Iehovà añamo mpitoki’eo.
26 The Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
Aa le nijohañe eo o nte-Levio rekets’ o fititiha’ i Davideo naho o mpisoroñeo reketse trompetra.
27 And Hezekiah ordered that the burnt offering be sacrificed on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD and the trumpets began as well, accompanied by the instruments of David king of Israel.
Le linili’ Iekizkia te hengaeñe ambone’ i kitreliy i soroñey. Aa ie namototse i fisoroñañey, le niorotse ka ty fisaboañe Iehovà an-trompetra mitraoke amo fititiha’ i Davide mpanjaka’ Israeleo.
28 The whole assembly was worshiping, the singers were singing, and the trumpeters were playing. All this continued until the burnt offering was completed.
Le nibaboke i fivory iabiy naho nitakasy o mpisaboo naho nitioke o mpampipopò trompetrao; vaho nitolom-panao izay ampara’ te niheneke i fisoroñañey.
29 When the offerings were completed, the king and all those present with him bowed down and worshiped.
Ie nifonitse i fañengañey, le nidròdreke vaho niambane i mpanjakay naho o mpiama’e iabio.
30 Then King Hezekiah and his officials ordered the Levites to sing praises to the LORD in the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with gladness and bowed their heads and worshiped.
Mbore linili’ Iekizkia mpanjaka naho o roandriañeo o nte-Levio ty hitakasy am’ Iehovà amo onin-tsabo’ i Davide naho i Asafe mpioniñeo. Le nisabo fandrengeañe an-kaehake naho niandaly vaho nitalaho.
31 Then Hezekiah said, “Now that you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.” So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing brought burnt offerings.
Nampigadoñe’ Iekizkia, ami’ty hoe: Fa navahañe am’ Iehovà nahareo henaneo; mañarinea le mibanabanà soroñe naho engam-pañandriañañe mb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà. Aa le nanese soroñe naho engam-pañandriañañe i fivoriy; vaho ninday engan-koroañe o matarikeo.
32 The number of burnt offerings the assembly brought was seventy bulls, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.
Aa ty ia’ o soroñe nendese’ o fivorio mb’eoo, le bania fitompolo naho añondrilahy zato vaho vik’ añondry roanjato; hene hisoroñañe am’ Iehovà.
33 And the consecrated offerings were six hundred bulls and three thousand sheep.
Le o enga navaheñeo: añombe enen-jato naho añondry telo-arivo.
34 However, since there were not enough priests to skin all the burnt offerings, their Levite brothers helped them until the work was finished and until the priests had been consecrated. For the Levites had been more diligent in consecrating themselves than the priests had been.
Fe tsy niampe ty mpisoroñe hañolitse o hisoroñañeo, aa le nimbae’ o nte-Levy roahalahi’ iareoo, ampara’ te niheneke i fitoloñañey, ampara’ te nañamasim-batañe o mpisoroñe ila’eo; amy te nilombolombo’ o mpisoroñeo o nte-Levio ami’ty havañonan’ arofo nampiavahem-batañe.
35 Furthermore, the burnt offerings were abundant, along with the fat of the peace offerings and the drink offerings for the burnt offerings. So the service of the house of the LORD was established.
Nimaro o nisoroñañe reketse i saboran’ engam-panintsiñañeio naho o enga-rano ho amo nisoroñañeo. Aa le nijadoñe soa ty fitoroñañe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao,
36 Then Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced at what God had prepared for the people, because everything had been accomplished so quickly.
naho nandia taroba t’Iekizkia naho ondaty iabio, ty amy nampihentseñan’ Añahare ho a’ondatio; amy te nitojeha i nanoeñey.
