2 Chronicles 30
1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel, and Iudah, and also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord at Ierusalem, to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel.
Awo Keezeekiya n’aweereza obubaka eri Isirayiri yonna ne Yuda, n’awandiikira ne Efulayimu ne Manase amabaluwa, ng’abayita okujja e Yerusaalemi mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, okukwata Embaga ey’Okuyitako eya Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri.
2 And the King and his princes and all the Congregation had taken counsel in Ierusalem to keepe the Passeouer in the second moneth.
Kabaka n’abakungu be, n’ekibiina kyonna mu Yerusaalemi baasalawo okukwata Embaga ey’Okuyitako mu mwezi ogwokubiri;
3 For they could not keepe it at this time, because there were not Priests enow sanctified, neither was the people gathered to Ierusalem.
baali tebasobola kukwata mbaga eyo mu kiseera kyayo kubanga bakabona abaali beetukuzizza, baali batono ate nga n’abantu tebanakuŋŋaanira mu Yerusaalemi.
4 And the thing pleased the King, and all the Congregation.
Enteekateeka eyo n’erabika nga nnungi eri kabaka n’ekibiina kyonna.
5 And they decreed to make proclamation throughout all Israel from Beersheba euen to Dan, that they should come to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel at Ierusalem: for they had not done it of a great time, as it was written.
Ne basalawo okulangirira mu Isirayiri yenna, okuva e Beeruseba okutuuka e Ddaani, nga bategeeza abantu okujja e Yerusaalemi okukwata Embaga ey’Okuyitako eya Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri; baali batutte ebbanga nga tebagikwata ng’ekibiina ekinene eky’awamu, nga bwe kyawandiikibwa.
6 So the postes went with letters by the commission of the King, and his princes, thorowout all Israel and Iudah, and with the commandement of the King, saying, Ye children of Israel, turne againe vnto the Lord God of Abraham, Izhak, and Israel, and he will returne to the remnant that are escaped of you, out of ye hands of the Kings of Asshur.
Awo ababaka ne batwala amabaluwa mu Isirayiri yonna ne mu Yuda okuva ewa kabaka n’abakungu be, ng’ekiragiro kya kabaka bwe kyali nti, “Abantu ba Isirayiri, mudde eri Mukama Katonda wa Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka, ne Isirayiri, Katonda alyoke adde gye muli, mmwe ekitundu ekisigaddewo, ekiwonye omukono gwa bakabaka b’e Bwasuli.
7 And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the Lord God of their fathers: and therfore he made them desolate, as ye see.
Temuba nga bajjajjammwe ne baganda bammwe abataali beesigwa eri Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe n’abafuula ekyelolerwa, nga bwe mulaba.
8 Be not ye now stiffenecked like your fathers, but giue the hand to the Lord, and come into his sanctuarie, which he hath sanctified for euer, and serue the Lord your God, and the fiercenesse of his wrath shall turne away from you.
So temuba ba nsingo nkakanyavu nga bajjajjammwe bwe baali, naye mukkakkane eri Mukama, mujje mu watukuvu we, we yatukuza emirembe gyonna, muweereze Mukama Katonda wammwe, obusungu bwe bubaveeko.
9 For if ye returne vnto the Lord, your brethren and your children shall finde mercy before them that led them captiues, and they shall returne vnto this lande: for the Lord your God is gracious and mercifull, and will not turne away his face from you, if ye conuert vnto him.
Bwe munadda eri Mukama, olwo ne baganda bammwe n’abaana bammwe banaalaba ekisa mu maaso g’abo abaabawamba, ne bakomawo mu nsi eno. Mukama Katonda wammwe wa kisa era ajjudde okusaasira, so taakyuse maaso ge, okubavaako bwe munadda gyali.”
10 So the postes went from citie to citie thorow the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, euen vnto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorne, and mocked them.
Ababaka ne bagenda mu buli kibuga mu nsi ya Efulayimu ne Manase, ne batuuka ne mu Zebbulooni, naye abasinga obungi ne babasekerera, ne babaduulira.
11 Neuerthelesse diuers of Asher, and Manasseh, and of Zebulun submitted themselues, and came to Ierusalem.
Kyokka abamu ku bantu ab’e Aseri, ne Manase ne Zebbulooni ne beetoowaza ne bagenda e Yerusaalemi.
12 And the hand of God was in Iudah, so that he gaue them one heart to doe the commandement of the King, and of the rulers, according to the worde of the Lord.
Ne mu Yuda, omukono gwa Katonda ne gukwata ku bantu ne bakkiriziganya ku ekyo kabaka n’abakungu kye baalagira, nga bagoberera ekigambo kya Mukama.
13 And there assembled to Ierusalem much people, to keepe the feast of ye vnleauened bread in the second moneth, a very great assemblie.
Awo abantu bangi ne bakuŋŋaanira mu Yerusaalemi mu mwezi ogwokubiri okukwata Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse.
14 And they arose, and tooke away the altars that were in Ierusalem: and all those for incense tooke they away, and cast them into the brooke Kidron.
Ne baggyawo ebyoto ebyali mu Yerusaalemi, n’ebyoto byonna eby’okwoterezaako obubaane, ne babisuula mu Kiwonvu Kidulooni.
15 Afterwarde they slewe the Passeouer the fourteenth day of the seconde moneth: and the Priestes and Leuites were ashamed, and sanctified themselues, and brought the burnt offrings into the house of the Lord.
Ne batta Endiga Ento ey’Embaga ey’Okuyitako ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ennya olw’omwezi ogwokubiri. Bakabona n’Abaleevi ne baswala, ne beetukuza, ne baleeta ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.
16 And they stoode in their place after their maner, according to the Lawe of Moses the man of God: and the Priestes sprinkled the blood, receiued of the handes of the Leuites.
Ne bayimirira mu bifo byabwe ng’etteeka lya Musa omusajja wa Katonda bwe lyali libalagira. Bakabona ne bamansira omusaayi ogwabaweerezebwa Abaleevi.
17 Because there were many in the Congregation that were not sanctified, therefore the Leuites had the charge of the killing of ye Passeouer for all that were not cleane, to sanctifie it to the Lord.
Bangi ku bo, baali tebeetukuzizza nga tebasobola kuwaayo ndiga zaabwe; Abaleevi kyebaava battira buli muntu ataali mulongoofu Endiga Ento ey’Embaga ey’Okuyitako, okubatukuza eri Mukama.
18 For a multitude of the people, euen a multitude of Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun had not cleansed themselues, yet did eate the Passeouer, but not as it was written: wherefore Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The good Lord be mercifull toward him,
Newaakubadde ng’abantu abasinga abaava mu Efulayimu, ne Manase, ne Isakaali, ne Zebbulooni baali tebeetukuzizza, baalya Embaga ey’Okuyitako, ekyali tekikkiriziganya na biwandiike. Naye Keezeekiya n’abasabira ng’agamba nti, “Mukama omulungi asonyiwe buli muntu
19 That prepareth his whole heart to seeke the Lord God, the God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed, according to the purification of the Sanctuarie.
amaliridde mu mutima gwe okunoonya Katonda, Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabe, newaakubadde nga tabadde mulongoofu okusinziira ku mateeka g’awatukuvu.”
20 And the Lord heard Hezekiah, and healed the people.
Mukama n’awulira okusaba kwa Keezeekiya, n’atabazikiriza.
21 And the children of Israel that were present at Ierusalem, kept the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes with great ioye, and the Leuites, and the Priestes praysed the Lord, day by day, singing with loude instruments vnto the Lord.
Abayisirayiri abaali mu Yerusaalemi ne bakwata Embaga ey’Emigaati Egitali Mizimbulukuse okumala ennaku musanvu nga bajjudde essanyu lingi; Abaleevi ne bakabona ne batenderezanga Mukama buli lunaku, nga bakuba n’ebivuga eby’okumutendereza.
22 And Hezekiah spake comfortably vnto all the Leuites that had good knowledge to sing vnto the Lord: and they did eate in that feast seuen dayes, and offred peace offrings, and praysed the Lord God of their fathers.
Keezeekiya n’ayogera ebigambo eby’okugumya Abaleevi bonna abaalaga nga bategeera obuweereza bwa Mukama. Abantu ne balya emmere ey’embaga okumala ennaku musanvu, ne bawaayo ssaddaaka ez’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, ne batendereza Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjaabwe.
23 And the whole assembly tooke counsel to keepe it other seuen dayes. So they kept it seuen dayes with ioy.
Ekibiina kyonna ne bakkiriziganya okweyongerayo ennaku endala musanvu nga bali ku mbaga; bwe batyo ne bamala ennaku endala musanvu nga bajaguza.
24 For Hezekiah King of Iudah had giuen to the Congregation a thousande bullockes, and seuen thousand sheepe. And the princes had giuen to the Congregation a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheepe: and many Priests were sanctified.
Keezeekiya kabaka wa Yuda n’awa ekibiina ente ennume nga nto lukumi n’endiga kasanvu okuba ebiweebwayo, ne bakabona bangi nnyo ne beetukuza.
25 And all the Congregation of Iudah reioyced with the Priestes and the Leuites, and all the Congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Iudah.
Ekibiina kyonna ekya Yuda, ne bakabona, n’Abaleevi, n’ekibiina kyonna ekyava mu Isirayiri, n’abagenyi abaali bavudde mu nsi ya Isirayiri, n’abagenyi abaabeeranga mu Yuda ne bajaguliza wamu.
26 So there was great ioye in Ierusalem: for since the time of Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel there was not the like thing in Ierusalem.
Ne waba essanyu lingi mu Yerusaalemi kubanga okuva mu biro bya Sulemaani mutabani wa Dawudi kabaka wa Isirayiri, waali tewabangawo kintu kifaanana bwe kityo mu Yerusaalemi.
27 Then the Priests and the Leuites arose, and blessed the people, and their voyce was heard, and their prayer came vp vnto heauen, to his holy habitation.
Awo bakabona n’Abaleevi ne bayimirira ne basabira abantu omukisa, Katonda n’abawulira; kubanga okusaba kwabwe kwatuuka mu kifo kye ekitukuvu gy’abeera, mu ggulu.
