< 2 Chronicles 30 >
1 And Ezechias sent to all Israel and Juda: and he wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasses, that they should come to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel.
Ary Hezekia naniraka tany amin’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda rehetra ka nanoratra taratasy ho amin’ ny Efraima sy ny Manase koa mba hankanesany any an-tranon’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema hitandrina ny Paska ho an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
2 For the king, taking counsel, and the princes, and all the assembly of Jerusalem, decreed to keep the phase the second month.
Fa ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka mbamin’ ny fiangonana rehetra tany Jerosalema dia niara-nihevitra ny amin’ ny hitandremana ny Paska amin’ ny volana faharoa.
3 For they could not keep it in its time; because there were not priests enough sanctified, and the people was not as yet gathered together to Jerusalem.
Nefa tsy nahatandrina azy tamin’ izany andro izany izy, satria ny mpisorona tsy mbola nanamasina ny tenany loatra, ary ny olona koa tsy mbola vory tany Jerosalema.
4 And the thing pleased the king, and all the people.
Ary sitraky ny mpanjaka sy ny fiangonana rehetra izany.
5 And they decreed to send messengers to all Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, that they should come, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel in Jerusalem: for many had not kept it as it is prescribed by the law.
Dia nandidy handefa teny eran’ ny Isiraely rehetra hatrany Beri-sheba ka hatrany Dana izy mba hankanesan’ ny olona hitandrina ny Paska ho an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, any Jerosalema; fa ny be sy ny maro tsy mba nitandrina azy araka ny voasoratra.
6 And the posts went with letters by commandment of the king, and his princes, to all Israel and Juda, proclaiming according to the king’s orders: Ye children of Israel, turn again to the Lord the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Israel: and he will return to the remnant of you that have escaped the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
Dia lasa ny tsimandoa nitondra ny taratasy avy tamin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka hitety ny Isiraely sy ny Joda rehetra ka nilaza araka ny didin’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Ry zanak’ isiraely ô, miverena amin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama sy Isaka ary Isiraely, mba hiverenany ho amin’ izay sisa aminareo izay tsy azon’ ny tànan’ ireo mpanjakan’ i Asyria.
7 Be not like your fathers, and brethren, who departed from the Lord the God of their fathers, and he hath given them up to destruction, as you see.
Aza manahaka ny rainareo sy ny rahalahinareo izay nivadika tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, ka dia natolony ho figagana araka izao hitanareo izao izy.
8 Harden not your necks, as your fathers did: yield yourselves to the Lord, and come to his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: serve the Lord the God of your fathers, and the wrath of his indignation shall be turned away from you.
Koa aza manamafy ny hatokareo toy ny nataon’ ny razanareo, fa atolory an’ i Jehovah ny tananareo, ka midìra ao amin’ ny fitoerany masìna, izay nohamasininy ho mandrakizay; ary manompoa an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, mba hiala aminareo ny fahatezerany mirehitra.
9 For if you turn again to the Lord: your brethren, and children shall find mercy before their masters, that have led them away captive, and they shall return into this land: for the Lord your God is merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if you return to him.
Fa raha miverina amin’ i Jehovah ianareo, dia hahazo famindram-po eo anatrehan’ izay nitondra azy ho babo ny rahalahinareo sy ny zanakareo, ka dia ho tafaverina amin’ ity tany ity izy; fa miantra sy mamindra fo Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, ary tsy mba hiamboho anareo Izy, raha miverina aminy ianareo.
10 So the posts went speedily from city to city, through the land of Ephraim, and of Manasses, even to Zabulon, whilst they laughed at them and mocked them.
Ary ny tsimandoa nitety ny tanàna hatrany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Efraima sy ny Manase ka hatrany amin’ ny Zebolona; fa nihomehezan’ ny olona sy novazivaziny foana izy.
11 Nevertheless some men of Aser, and of Manasses, and of Zabulon, yielding to the counsel, came to Jerusalem.
Kanefa kosa ny tamin’ ny Asera sy ny Manase ary ny Zebolona dia nisy ihany nanetry tena ka tonga tany Jerosalema.
12 But the hand of God was in Juda, to give them one heart to do the word of the Lord, according to the commandment of the king, and of the princes.
Ary ny tànan’ Andriamanitra dia napetrany tamin’ ny Joda koa mba hanome azy fo iray hankatò ny didin’ ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka noho ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
13 And much people were assembled to Jerusalem to celebrate the solemnity of the unleavened bread in the second month:
Ary tamin’ ny volana faharoa dia nisy olona maro nivory tany Jerosalema hitandrina ny andro firavoravoana fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira, dia fivoriana lehibe tokoa.
14 And they arose and destroyed the altars that were in Jerusalem, and took sway all things in which incense was burnt to idols, and cast them into the torrent Cedron.
Ary nitsangana izy, dia nandrava ireo alitara tany Jerosalema; ary ny alitara fandoroana ditin-kazo manitra rehetra dia noravany koa ka nariany tany amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka Kidrona.
15 And they immolated the phase on the fourteenth day of the second month. And the priests and the Levites being at length sanctified offered holocausts in the house of the Lord.
Dia namono ny Paska izy tamin’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana faharoa; ary menatra, ny mpisorona sy ny Levita, dia nanamasina ny tenany ka nampiditra ny fanatitra dorana ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
16 And they stood in their order according to the disposition, and law of Moses the man of God: but the priests received the blood which was to be poured out, from the hands of the Levites,
Ary nitsangana teo amin’ ny fitoerany tahaka ny fanao izy, araka ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra; ary ny mpisorona nanopy ny rà izay teny an-tànan’ ny Levita.
17 Because a great number was not sanctified: and therefore the Levites immolated the phase for them that came not in time to be sanctified to the Lord.
Fa nisy maro tao amin’ ny fiangonana izay tsy mba nanamasina ny tenany, ka dia ny Levita no nampamonoina ny Paska hisolo izay rehetra tsy madio mba hanamasina azy ho an’ i Jehovah.
18 For a great part of the people from Ephraim, and Manasses, and Issachar, and Zabulon, that had not been sanctified, ate the phase otherwise than it is written: and Ezechias prayed for them, saying: The Lord who is good will shew mercy,
Fa nisy olona betsaka, dia maro avy tamin’ ny Efraima sy ny Manase sy ny Isakara ary ny Zebolona, no tsy mba nanadio ny tenany, kanefa nihinana ny Paska ihany izy, fa tsy araka izay voasoratra. Ary Hezekia nivavaka ho an’ ireny ka nanao hoe: Jehovah tsara ô, mamelà
19 To all them, who with their whole heart, seek the Lord the God of their fathers: and will not impute it to them that they are not sanctified.
izay rehetra efa nampiomana ny fony hitady an’ Andriamanitra, dia Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, na dia tsy madio araka ny fahadiovan’ ny fitoerana masìna aza izy.
20 And the Lord heard him, and was merciful to the people.
Ary Jehovah nihaino an’ i Hezekia ka nahasitrana ny olona.
21 And the children of Israel, that were found at Jerusalem, kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great joy, praising the Lord every day: the Levites also, and the priests, with instruments that agreed to their office.
Ary ny Zanak’ isiraely izay tany Jerosalema dia nitandrina hafitoana ny andro firavoravoana fihinanana ny mofo tsy misy masirasira tamin’ ny fifaliana lehibe; ary ny Levita sy ny mpisorona nidera an’ i Jehovah isan’ andro sady nampaneno zavatra mafy faneno ho an’ i Jehovah.
22 And Ezechias spoke to the heart of all the Levites, that had good understanding concerning the Lord: and they ate during the seven days of the solemnity, immolating victims of peace offerings, and praising the Lord the God of their fathers.
Ary Hezekia dia nankasitraka ny Levita rehetra, izay nanana fahaizana ho an’ i Jehovah; ary nihinana ny Paska hafitoana izy sady nanatitra fanati-pihavanana koa sy nisaotra an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany.
23 And it pleased the whole multitude to keep other seven days: which they did with great joy.
Ary ny fiangonana rehetra niara-nihevitra ny amin’ ny hitandremana hafitoana indray; ka dia mbola nitandrina hafitoana koa tamin’ ny hafaliana izy.
24 For Ezechias the king of Juda had given to the multitude a thousand bullocks, and seven thousand sheep: and the princes had given the people a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests was sanctified.
Fa Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, nanome vantotr’ ombilahy arivo sy ondry aman’ osy fito arivo ho an’ ny fiangonana; ary ny mpanapaka koa nanome vantotr’ ombilahy arivo sy ondry aman’ osy iray alina ho an’ ny fiangonana; ary maro ny mpisorona no nanamasina ny tenany.
25 And all the multitude of Juda with the priests and Levites, and all the assembly, that came out of Israel; and the proselytes of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Juda were full of joy.
Ary faly ny fiangonana, dia ny Joda rehetra sy ny mpisorona sy ny Levita sy izay rehetra tafangona avy tamin’ ny Isiraely mbamin’ ny vahiny izay avy tany amin’ ny tany Isiraely ary izay nonina tany Joda.
26 And there was a great solemnity in Jerusalem, such as had not been in that city since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel.
Koa nisy fifaliana be tany Jerosalema; fa hatramin’ ny andron’ i Solomona, zanak’ i Davida, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia tsy mbola nisy tahaka izany tany Jerosalema.
27 And the priests and the Levites rose up and blessed the people: and their voice was heard: and their prayer came to the holy dwelling place of heaven.
Dia nitsangana ny Levita sy ny mpisorona ka nitso-drano ny olona; ary nohenoin’ Andriamanitra ny feony, ka niakatra ho any an-danitra, fonenany masìna, ny fivavany.
