< 2 Chronicles 31 >

1 When all this had ended, the Israelites in attendance went out to the cities of Judah and broke up the sacred pillars, chopped down the Asherah poles, and tore down the high places and altars throughout Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the Israelites returned to their cities, each to his own property.
Yommuu wanni kun hundi xumurametti Israaʼeloonni achi turan gara magaalaawwan Yihuudaa dhaqanii dhagaawwan waaqeffannaa caccabsan; siidaawwan Aasheeraa ni kukkutan. Iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa fi iddoowwan aarsaa kanneen Yihuudaa, Beniyaam, Efreemii fi Minaasee keessa turan hunda ni balleessan. Israaʼeloonnis erga waan kana hunda balleessanii booddee gara magaalaawwanii fi qabeenya isaaniitti deebiʼan.
2 Hezekiah reestablished the divisions of the priests and Levites—each of them according to their duties as priests or Levites—for the burnt offerings and peace offerings, for ministry, for giving thanks, and for singing praises at the gates of the LORD’s dwelling.
Hisqiyaasis tokkoo tokkoo isaanii akka isaan akkuma hojii lubummaa isaaniitti yookaan akkuma hojii Lewwummaa isaaniitti aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeessaniif, akka isaan karra iddoo Waaqayyo jiraatuu duratti tajaajilaniif, akka isaan galata galchanii fi akka isaan faarfannaa galataa faarfataniif lubootaa fi Lewwota garee gareedhaan ramade.
3 The king contributed from his own possessions for the regular morning and evening burnt offerings and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, New Moons, and appointed feasts, as written in the Law of the LORD.
Mootichis akkuma Seera Waaqayyoo keessatti barreeffame sanatti, aarsaa gubamu kan ganamaa fi galgalaa akkasumas aarsaa gubamu kan Sanbatootaa, Ayyaana Baatiiwwan Haaraa fi guyyaa ayyaana murteeffameetiif qabeenya ofii isaa irraa ni kenne.
4 Moreover, he commanded the people living in Jerusalem to make a contribution for the priests and Levites so that they could devote themselves to the Law of the LORD.
Innis akka luboonnii fi Lewwonni Seera Waaqayyootiif of kennuu dandaʼaniif namoota Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan akka isaan qooda jaraaf malu kennaniif ni ajaje.
5 As soon as the order went out, the Israelites generously provided the firstfruits of the grain, new wine, oil, and honey, and of all the produce of the field, and they brought in an abundance—a tithe of everything.
Akkuma ajajni sun baʼeenis Israaʼeloonni mataa midhaan isaanii kan jalqabaa irraa, daadhii wayinii haaraa irraa, zayitii fi damma irraa akkasumas waan lafa qotiisaa irraa argamu hunda irraa arjummaadhaan kennan. Waan hunda irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko guddisanii ni fidan.
6 And the Israelites and Judahites who lived in the cities of Judah also brought a tithe of their herds and flocks and a tithe of the holy things consecrated to the LORD their God, and they laid them in large heaps.
Namoonni Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa warri magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessa jiraatanis loonii fi bushaayee isaanii irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko, akkasumas waan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaaniitiif qulqulleeffame irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko ni fidan; ni tuulanis.
7 In the third month they began building up the heaps, and they finished in the seventh month.
Isaanis hojii kana jiʼa sadaffaatti jalqabanii jiʼa torbaffaatti fixan.
8 When Hezekiah and his officials came and viewed the heaps, they blessed the LORD and His people Israel.
Hisqiyaasii fi qondaaltonni isaa yommuu dhufanii tuullaawwan sana arganitti Waaqayyoon ni galateeffatan; saba isaa Israaʼelinis ni eebbisan.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and Levites about the heaps,
Hisqiyaasis waaʼee tuullaa sanaa lubootaa fi Lewwota gaafate;
10 and Azariah, the chief priest of the household of Zadok, answered him, “Since the people began to bring their contributions into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat and there is plenty left over, because the LORD has blessed His people; this great abundance is what is left over.”
maatii Zaadoq keessaa Azaariyaa lubichi hangafni akkana jedhee deebise; “Erga namoonni kennaa isaanii gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidduu jalqabanii as nu nyaata gaʼaa fi irraa hafaa arganneerra; sababii Waaqayyo saba isaa eebbiseef hambaan akka malee guddaan kun hafeera.”
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare storerooms in the house of the LORD, and they did so.
Hisqiyaasis akka isaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti mankuusaalee qopheessan ajaje; isaanis ni qopheessan.
12 And they faithfully brought in the contributions, tithes, and dedicated gifts. Conaniah the Levite was the officer in charge of them, and his brother Shimei was second.
Isaanis ergasii buusii, kennaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokkoo fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman amanamummaadhaan fidan. Wantoota kanneen irrattis Konaneyaan Lewwichi itti gaafatamaa ture; obboleessi isaa Shimeʼiin immoo sadarkaadhaan itti aanaa isaa ture.
13 Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the authority of Conaniah and his brother Shimei, by appointment of King Hezekiah and of Azariah the chief official of the house of God.
Yehiiʼeel, Azaziyaa, Nahaati, Asaaheel, Yeriimooti, Yoozaabaad, Eliiʼeel, Yismakiyaa, Mahatii fi Benaayaa, Konaneyaa fi obboleessa isaa Shimeʼii jalatti toʼattoota taʼanii Hisqiyaas mootichaa fi Azaariyaa itti gaafatamaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaatiin muudaman.
14 Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the keeper of the East Gate, was in charge of the freewill offerings given to God, distributing the contributions to the LORD and the consecrated gifts.
Qooraahi ilmi Yimnaa Lewwichi, eegduun Karra Baʼaa sun kennaa fedhiidhaan Waaqaaf kenname irratti, akkasumas buusii Waaqayyoof godhamee fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman qooduu irratti itti gaafatamummaa qaba ture.
15 Under his authority, Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah faithfully distributed portions to their fellow priests in their cities, according to their divisions, old and young alike.
Eeden, Miiniyaamiin, Yeeshuuʼaan, Shemaaʼiyaan, Amariyaa fi Shekaaniyaan magaalaawwan lubootaa keessatti luboota michoota isaaniitiif guddaa fi xinnaa akkuma tokkotti garee garee isaaniitti isaaniif qooduudhaan amanamummaadhaan isa gargaaran.
16 In addition, they distributed portions to the males registered by genealogy who were three years of age or older—to all who would enter the house of the LORD for their daily duties for service in the responsibilities of their divisions—
Kana malees dhiirota umuriin isaanii waggaa sadii fi sanaa ol taʼe kanneen maqaan isaanii galmee hidda dhalootaa keessa jiru warra akkuma itti gaafatamummaa isaanii fi ramaddii isaaniitti qooda hojii isaanii kan guyyaa guyyaa hojjetamu hojjechuuf mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo seenuu dandaʼan hundaaf akkasuma ni qoodan.
17 and to the priests enrolled according to their families in the genealogy, as well as to the Levites twenty years of age or older, according to their duties and divisions.
Luboota maatii isaaniitiin galmee hidda dhalootaa keessatti galmeeffamanii fi Lewwota umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi sanaa ol taʼeefis akkuma itti gaafatamummaa fi qooda hojii isaaniitti ni ramadaniif.
18 The genealogy included all the little ones, wives, sons, and daughters in the whole assembly. For they had faithfully consecrated themselves as holy.
Luboonni kunneen ijoollee isaanii xixinnoo, niitota isaanii, ilmaan isaaniitii fi intallan isaanii kanneen waldaa guutuu keessa jiran hunda wajjin ni galmeeffaman; isaan of qulqulleessuudhaan amanamoo turaniitii.
19 As for the priests, the descendants of Aaron, who lived on the farmlands around each of their cities or in any other city, men were designated by name to distribute a portion to every male among the priests and to every Levite listed by the genealogies.
Luboota sanyiiwwan Aroon kanneen lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaawwan isaanii yookaan magaalaawwan biraa keessa jiraataniif, dhiirota garee isaanii kanneen galmee hidda dhaloota Lewwotaa keessatti galmeeffaman hundaaf akka qoodaniif namoonni filatamanii turan.
20 So this is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah. He did what was good and upright and true before the LORD his God.
Hisqiyaas waan kana guutummaa Yihuudaa keessatti ni hojjete; innis waan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa duratti gaarii, qajeelaa fi amanamaa taʼe ni hojjete.
21 He was diligent in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law and the commandments, in order to seek his God. And so he prospered.
Innis mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa keessa hojjechuunis taʼu, seeraa fi ajajawwaniif ajajamuudhaan waan hojjete hunda keessatti Waaqa isaa barbaaduudhaaf garaa isaa guutuudhaan ni hojjete; kanaafuu inni ni milkaaʼe.
