2 Kings 22
1 Josias was eight years old when he began to reign: he reigned one and thirty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Idida, the daughter of Hadaia, of Besecath.
Valo taoñe t’Iosià te namototse nifeleke, vaho nifehe telopolo taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao. Iedidae, anak’ ampela’ i Adaià nte-Bots’kate, ty tahinan-drene’e.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the ways of David his father: he turned not aside to the right hand, or to the left.
Nanao soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re naho nañavelo an-tsata’ i Davide rae’e vaho tsy nitsile mb’an-kavana ndra mb’ankavia.
3 And in the eighteenth year of king Josias, the king sent Saphan the son of Assia, the son of Messulam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
Ie amy taom-paha-folo-valo-ambi’ Iosià mpanjakay, le nampihitrife’ i mpanjakay t’i Safane, ana’ i Atsaliaho ana’ i Mesolame mpanokitse mb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo, ami’ty hoe:
4 Go to Helcias the high priest, that the money may be put together which is brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have gathered of the people.
Akia mb’amy Kilkià mpisoroñe hamolily o volafoty fa nasese añ’anjomba’ Iehovào, o natonto’ o mpañambin-dalambeio am’ ondatioo;
5 And let it be given to the workmen by the overseers of the house of the Lord: and lot them distribute it to those that work in the temple of the Lord, to repair the temple:
le ampanesefo am-pità’ o mpanao i fitoloñañeio, amo mpisary i anjomba’ Iehovàio; le hatolo’ iereo amo mpifanehak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovào hamboareñe o vakivaky amy anjombaio;
6 That is, to carpenters and masons, and to such as mend breaches: and that timber may be bought, and stones out of the quarries, to repair the temple of the Lord.
amo mpandranjio, naho amo mpamboatseo naho amo mpandranjy vatoo naho hiviliañe hatae naho vato pinèke hampisomontieñe i anjombay,
7 But let there be no reckoning made with them of the money which they receive, but let them have it in their power, and in their trust.
vaho tsy ampivolilieñe o tolorañe i drala am-pitañeio, amy te matoe ty fitoloña’ iareo.
8 And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.
Le hoe t’i Kilkià, mpisoroñe, amy Safane, mpanokitse; Nitreako añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao ty boke Hake. Le natolo’ i Kilkià amy Safane, vaho vinaki’e.
9 And Saphan the scribe came to the king, and brought him word again concerning that which he had commanded, and said: Thy servants have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and they have given it to be distributed to the workmen, by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.
Nimb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo t’i Safane mpanokitse vaho nahere’e amy mpanjakay ty saontsy manao ty hoe: Fa natonto’ o mpitoroñeo o drala niisak’ añ’ anjombao vaho natolo’ iereo am-pità’ o mpitoloñe misary ty anjomba’ Iehovào;
10 And Saphan the scribe told the king, saying: Helcias the priest hath delivered to me a book. And when Saphan had read it before the king,
le tinaro’ i Safane amy mpanjakay ty hoe: Nanese boke amako t’i Kilkia mpisoroñe. Aa le nivakie’ i Safane añatrefa’ i mpanjakay.
11 And the king had heard the words of the law of the Lord, he rent his garments.
Ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty enta’ i boke Hakey, le rinia’e o saro’eo;
12 And he commanded Helcias the priest, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Achobor the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaia the king’s servant, saying:
le linili’ i mpanjakay t’i Kilkia mpisoroñe, naho i Akikame, ana’ i Safane naho i Akbore ana’ i Mikaià naho i Safane mpanokitse vaho i Asaià mpitoro’ i mpanjakay ami’ty hoe:
13 Go and consult the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Juda, concerning the words of this book which is found: for the great wrath of the Lord is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do all that is written for us.
Akia, añontaneo am’Iehovà ho ahy naho ondatio naho Iehoda iaby o tsara’ i boke nioniñeio, fa akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà misolebotse amantika, ie tsy hinaon-droaen-tika o tsara ami’ty boke toio; hera fonga hanoe’e aman-tikañe o sinokitseo.
14 So Helcias the priest, and Ahicam, and Achobor, and Saphan, and Asaia went to Holda the prophetess the wife of Sellum the son of Thecua, the son of Araas keeper of the wardrobe, who dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second: and they spoke to her.
Aa le nimoak’ amy Koldàe mpitoky ampela, vali’ i Salome, ana’ i Tikvà, ana’ i Karkase mpañambin-tsikiñe, mpimoneñe e Ierosalaime an-kibohom-panokiram-boke ao, t’i Kilkià mpisoroñe naho i Akikame, naho i Akbore naho i Safane vaho i Asaià, le nifañaoñe ama’e.
15 And she said to them: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me:
Le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, Saontsio indaty nañirak’ anahareo amakoy,
16 Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will bring evils upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the words of the law which the king of Juda hath read:
Hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà: Mahaoniña te hametsahako hankàñe ty toetse toy naho o mpimoneñe ama’eo; toe ze hene enta’ i boke’ vinaki’ i mpanjaka’ Iehoday;
17 Because they have forsaken me, and have sacrificed to strange gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands: therefore my indignation shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
amy te naforintse’ iereo iraho naho nañenga aman-drahare ila’e, hanigike ty haviñerako amo satam-pità’ iareoo; aa le hisolebotse ami’ty toetse toy ty haviñerako vaho tsy hakipeke.
18 But to the king of Juda, who sent you to consult the Lord, thus shall you say: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Forasmuch as thou hast heard the words of the book,
Fe hoe ty ho saontsieñe amy mpanjaka’ Iehodà nañirak’ anahareo hañontane amy Iehovày: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: ty amo tsara inanji’oo,
19 And thy heart hath been moved to fear, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, hearing the words against this place, and the inhabitants thereof, to wit, that they should become a wonder and a curse: and thou hast rent thy garments, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, saith the Lord:
kanao mitrotrotrotro ty arofo’o naho nireke añatrefa’ Iehovà, ie jinanji’o i vinolako ami’ ty toetse toiy naho amo mpimone’eo, t’ie ho fatra naho fatse, vaho te rinia’o o saro’oo vaho nirovetse añatrefako; le toe tsinanoko irehe, hoe t’Iehovà.
20 Therefore I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy sepulchre in peace, that thy eyes may not see all the evils which I will bring; upon this place.
Aa le oniño te hatontoko aman-droae’o irehe, le hambineñe an-kibori’o ao an-kanintsiñe, vaho tsy ho isam-pihaino’o ty hankàñe hafetsako ami’ty toetse toy. Aa le nahere’ iareo amy mpanjakay i entañe zay.
