< 2 Chronicles 30 >
1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem, to hold the passover to Jehovah the God of Israel.
Hesekiah sì ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo Israẹli àti Juda, ó sì kọ ìwé sí Efraimu àti Manase, kí wọn kí ó wá sínú ilé Olúwa ní Jerusalẹmu láti pa àjọ ìrékọjá mọ́ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
2 And the king took counsel, and his princes, and the whole congregation in Jerusalem, to hold the passover in the second month.
Nítorí tí ọba ti gbìmọ̀ àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀, àti gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn ní Jerusalẹmu, láti pa àjọ ìrékọjá mọ́ ní oṣù kejì.
3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not hallowed themselves in sufficient number, neither had the people been gathered together to Jerusalem.
Nítorí wọn kò lè pa á mọ́ ní àkókò náà, nítorí àwọn àlùfáà kò tí i ya ara wọn sí mímọ́ tó; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn kò tí ì kó ara wọn jọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
4 And the thing pleased the king and the whole congregation.
Ọ̀rọ̀ náà sí tọ́ lójú ọba àti lójú gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn.
5 So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to hold the passover to Jehovah the God of Israel, at Jerusalem; because they had not held it for a long time as it was written.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n fi àṣẹ kan lélẹ̀, láti kéde ká gbogbo Israẹli láti Beerṣeba àní títí dé Dani, láti wá pa àjọ ìrékọjá mọ́ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli ní Jerusalẹmu: nítorí wọn kò pa á mọ́ ní ọjọ́ púpọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́.
6 And the couriers went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, return to Jehovah the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and he will return to the remnant of you that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ àwọn oníṣẹ́ tí ń sáré lọ pẹ̀lú ìwé láti ọwọ́ ọba àti àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ sí gbogbo Israẹli àti Juda; àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ ọba, wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin ọmọ Israẹli ẹ yí padà sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Abrahamu, Isaaki, àti Israẹli, òun ó sì yípadà sí àwọn ìyókù nínú yín, tí ó sálà kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọba Asiria.
7 And be not like your fathers and like your brethren, who transgressed against Jehovah the God of their fathers, so that he gave them up to desolation, as ye see.
Kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má sì ṣe dàbí àwọn baba yín, àti bí àwọn arákùnrin yín tí ó dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn, nítorí náà ní ó ṣe fi wọ́n fún ìdahoro bí ẹ̀yin ti rí.
8 Now, harden not your necks, as your fathers; yield yourselves to Jehovah, and come to his sanctuary, which he has sanctified for ever; and serve Jehovah your God, that the fierceness of his anger may turn away from you.
Ǹjẹ́ kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe ṣe ọlọ́rùn líle, bí àwọn baba yín, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ jọ̀wọ́ ara yín lọ́wọ́ fún Olúwa, kí ẹ sì wọ inú ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀ lọ, ti òun ti ìyàsímímọ́ títí láé. Kí ẹ sì sin Olúwa, Ọlọ́run yín kí gbígbóná ìbínú rẹ̀ kí ó lè yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ yín.
9 For if ye return to Jehovah, your brethren and your children shall find compassion with those that have carried them captive, so that they shall come again unto this land; for Jehovah your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return to him.
Nítorí bí ẹ̀yin bá tún yípadà sí Olúwa, àwọn arákùnrin yín, àti àwọn ọmọ yín, yóò rí àánú níwájú àwọn tí ó kó wọn ní ìgbèkùn lọ, kí wọn kí ó lè tún padà wá sí ilẹ̀ yí: nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, oníyọnu àti aláàánú ni, kì yóò sì yí ojú rẹ̀ padà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ yín, bí ẹ̀yin bá padà sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.”
10 And the couriers passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, even to Zebulun; but they laughed them to scorn and mocked them.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn oníṣẹ́ náà kọjá láti ìlú dé ìlú, ní ilẹ̀ Efraimu àti Manase títí dé Sebuluni, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fi wọ́n rẹ́rìn-ín ẹlẹ́yà, wọ́n sì gàn wọ́n.
11 Nevertheless certain of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
Síbẹ̀ òmíràn nínú àwọn ènìyàn Aṣeri àti Manase àti Sebuluni rẹ̀ ara wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì wá sí Jerusalẹmu.
12 The hand of God was also upon Judah to give them one heart to do the commandment of the king and of the princes, by the word of Jehovah.
Ní Juda pẹ̀lú, ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run wá láti fún wọn ní ọkàn kan láti pa òfin ọba mọ́ àti tí àwọn ìjòyè, nípa ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
13 And there assembled at Jerusalem much people to hold the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation.
Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn sì péjọ ní Jerusalẹmu, láti pa àjọ àkàrà àìwú mọ́ ní oṣù kejì.
14 And they rose up and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem; and they took away all the incense-altars, and cast them into the torrent Kidron.
Wọ́n sì dìde, wọ́n sì kó gbogbo pẹpẹ tí ó wà ní Jerusalẹmu lọ, àti gbogbo pẹpẹ tùràrí ni wọ́n kó lọ, wọ́n sì dà wọ́n sí odò Kidironi.
15 And they slaughtered the passover on the fourteenth of the second month; and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and hallowed themselves; and they brought the burnt-offerings into the house of Jehovah.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n pa ẹran ìrékọjá náà ní ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá oṣù kejì: ojú sì ti àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi, wọ́n sì yà ara wọn sí mímọ́, wọ́n sì mú ẹbọ sísun wá sínú ilé Olúwa.
16 And they stood in their place after their custom, according to the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood [receiving it] from the hand of the Levites.
Wọ́n sì dúró ní ipò wọn, bí ètò wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí òfin Mose, ènìyàn Ọlọ́run: àwọn àlùfáà wọ́n ẹ̀jẹ̀ náà, tí wọ́n gbà lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọmọ Lefi.
17 For there were many in the congregation that were not hallowed; therefore the Levites had the charge of the slaughtering of the passover-lambs for every one not clean, to hallow them unto Jehovah.
Nítorí pé ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ni ó wà nínú ìjọ ènìyàn náà tí kò yà ara wọn sí mímọ́: nítorí náà ni àwọn ọmọ Lefi ṣe ń tọ́jú àti pa ẹran ìrékọjá fún olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó ṣe aláìmọ́, láti yà á sí mímọ́ sí Olúwa.
18 For a multitude of the people, many of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, and they ate the passover otherwise than it was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them saying, Jehovah, who is good, forgive every one
Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn, àní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú Efraimu àti Manase, Isakari, àti Sebuluni kò sá wẹ̀ ara wọn mọ́ síbẹ̀ wọ́n jẹ ìrékọjá náà, kì í ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́. Ṣùgbọ́n Hesekiah bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún wọn, wí pé, Olúwa, ẹni rere, dáríjì olúkúlùkù,
19 that has directed his heart to seek God, Jehovah the God of his fathers, although not according to the purification of the sanctuary.
tí ó múra ọkàn rẹ̀ láti wá Ọlọ́run, Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n tí kì í ṣe nípa ìwẹ̀nùmọ́ mímọ́
20 And Jehovah hearkened to Hezekiah, and healed the people.
Olúwa sì gbọ́ ti Hesekiah, ó sì mú àwọn ènìyàn náà láradá.
21 And the children of Israel, that were present at Jerusalem, held the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised Jehovah day by day, with the instruments of praise to Jehovah.
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí a rí ní Jerusalẹmu fi ayọ̀ ńlá pa àjọ àkàrà àìwú mọ́ ní ọjọ́ méje: àwọn ọmọ Lefi, àti àwọn àlùfáà yin Olúwa lójoojúmọ́, wọ́n ń fi ohun èlò olóhùn gooro kọrin sí Olúwa.
22 And Hezekiah spoke consolingly to all the Levites that had understanding in the good knowledge of Jehovah; and they ate the feast-offerings the seven days, sacrificing peace-offerings, and extolling Jehovah the God of their fathers.
Hesekiah sọ̀rọ̀ ìtùnú fún gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Lefi, tí ó lóye ní ìmọ̀ rere Olúwa: ọjọ́ méje ni wọ́n fi jẹ àsè náà wọ́n rú ẹbọ àlàáfíà, wọ́n sì ń fi ohùn rara dúpẹ́ fún Olúwa, Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn.
23 And the whole congregation took counsel to observe other seven days; and they observed the seven days with gladness.
Gbogbo ìjọ náà sì gbìmọ̀ láti pa ọjọ́ méje mìíràn mọ́: wọ́n sì fi ayọ̀ pa ọjọ́ méje mìíràn mọ́.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the congregation as heave-offering: a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep; and a great number of priests hallowed themselves.
Nítorí Hesekiah, ọba Juda, ta ìjọ ènìyàn náà ní ọrẹ, ẹgbẹ̀rún akọ màlúù, àti ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbàárin àgùntàn. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ nínú àwọn àlùfáà sì ya ara wọn sí mímọ́.
25 And the whole congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.
Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn Juda pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi, àti gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó ti inú Israẹli jáde wá, àti àwọn àjèjì tí ó ti ilẹ̀ Israẹli jáde wá, àti àwọn tí ń gbé Juda yọ̀.
26 And there was great joy in Jerusalem; for since the time of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, there had not been the like in Jerusalem.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ayọ̀ ńlá sì wà ní Jerusalẹmu: nítorí láti ọjọ́ Solomoni, ọmọ Dafidi, ọba Israẹli, irú èyí kò sí ní Jerusalẹmu.
27 And the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people; and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy habitation, to the heavens.
Nígbà náà ni àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ọmọ Lefi dìde, wọ́n sì súre fún àwọn ènìyàn náà: a sì gbọ́ ohùn wọn, àdúrà wọn sì gòkè lọ si ibùgbé mímọ́ rẹ̀, àní sí ọ̀run.
