2 Chronicles 34

1 Iosiah was eight yeere olde when hee began to reigne, and he reigned in Ierusalem one and thirtie yeere.

Naʻe valu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sosaia ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolungofulu ma taha.

2 And he did vprightly in the sight of ye Lord, and walked in the wayes of Dauid his father, and bowed neither to the right hand nor to the left.

Pea naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻaia naʻe lelei ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai, pea naʻe ʻikai afe ia ki he nima toʻomataʻu pe ki he toʻohema.

3 And in the eight yeere of his reigne (when he was yet a childe) he began to seeke after the God of Dauid his father: and in the twelft yeere he began to purge Iudah, and Ierusalem from the hie places, and the groues, and the carued images, and molten images:

He koeʻuhi ʻi hono valu taʻu ʻo ʻene pule, ʻi heʻene kei siʻi, naʻa ne kamata kumi ki he ʻOtua ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai: pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma ua taʻu, naʻa ne kamata ʻene ʻauhani ʻa Siuta mo Selūsalema mei he ngaahi potu māʻolunga, mo e ngaahi vao tapu, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe tā, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe haka.

4 And they brake downe in his sight the altars of Baalim, and hee caused to cut downe the images that were on hie vpon them: he brake also the groues, and the carued images, and the molten images, and stampt them to pouder, and strowed it vpon the graues of them that had sacrificed vnto them.

Pea naʻa nau holoki hifo ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakatātā ʻa Peali, ʻi hono ʻao: pea mo e ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe māʻolunga ʻi ai, naʻa ne tā hifo ia: pea naʻa ne tā ke fakaikiiki ʻae ngaahi vao tapu, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe tā, mo e ngaahi meʻa fakatātā naʻe haka, naʻa ne laiki ia ke efu, pea ne lulu ia ki he ngaahi tanuʻanga ʻokinautolu naʻa nau feilaulau ki ai.

5 Also he burnt the bones of the Priests vpon their altars, and purged Iudah and Ierusalem.

Pea naʻe tutu ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi hui ʻoe kau taula ki honau ngaahi feilaulauʻanga, ʻo ne fakamaʻa ʻa Siuta mo Selūsalema.

6 And in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, euen vnto Naphtali, with their maules they brake all round about.

Pea [naʻe fai pehē pe ia ]ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻo Manase, mo ʻIfalemi, mo Simione, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki Nafitalai, ʻaki ʻenau ngaahi toki ʻi he ngaahi potu ʻi ai.

7 And when he had destroyed the altars and the groues, and had broken and stamped to pouder the images, and had cut downe all the idoles throughout all the land of Israel, hee returned to Ierusalem.

Pea hili ʻene fesiʻi hifo ʻae ngaahi feilaulauʻanga mo e ngaahi vao tapu, ʻo ne tuki ke efu ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakatātā, ʻo ne tā hifo ʻae ngaahi tamapua kotoa pē ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, naʻe toki liliu mai ia ki Selūsalema.

8 Then in the eightenth yere of his reigne, when hee had purged the lande and the Temple, he sent Shaphan the sonne of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the gouernour of the citie, and Ioah the sonne of Ioahaz the recorder, to repaire the house of the Lord his God.

Pea ʻi hono hongofulu ma valu talu ʻo ʻene pule, hili ʻene ʻauhani ʻae fonua, mo e fale, naʻe fekau ʻe ia ʻa Safani ko e foha ko ʻAsalia, mo Māseia ko e pule ʻoe kolo, mo Soa ko e foha ʻo Soasi, ko e tangata tohi, ke nau ngaohi ke lelei ʻae fale ʻo Sihova.

9 And when they came to Hilkiah the hie Priest, they deliuered ye money that was brought into the house of God, which the Leuites that kept the doore, had gathered at the hand of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and of all the residue of Israel, and of all Iudah and Beniamin, and of the inhabitantes of Ierusalem.

Pea ʻi heʻenau haʻu kia Hilikia ko e taulaʻeiki lahi, naʻa nau ʻatu ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe tānaki ʻe he kau Livai naʻe leʻohi ʻae ngaahi matapā mei he nima ʻo Manase mo ʻIfalemi, pea mei he kakai toe kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ʻi Siuta kotoa pē mo Penisimani; pea naʻa nau liu mai ki Selūsalema.

10 And they put it in the hands of them that should doe the worke and had the ouersight in the house of the Lord: and they gaue it to the workemen that wrought in the house of ye Lord, to repaire and amend the house.

Pea naʻa nau tuku ia ki he nima ʻoe kau tangata ngāue ʻaia naʻe tauhi ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa nau ʻatu ia ki he kau tangata ngāue naʻe fai ʻae ngāue ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, ke toe ngaohi mo fakalelei ʻae fale:

11 Euen to the workemen and to the builders gaue they it, to bye hewed stone and timber for couples and for beames of the houses, which the Kings of Iudah had destroyed.

‌ʻIo, naʻa nau ʻatu ia ki he kau tufunga mo e kau langa fale, ke fakatauʻaki ʻae ngaahi maka kuo tā, mo e ʻakau maʻae ngaahi hokoʻanga alanga, pea ki he faliki ʻoe ngaahi fale ʻaia naʻe maumauʻi ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta.

12 And the men did the worke faithfully, and the ouerseers of them were Iahath and Obadiah the Leuites, of the children of Merari, and Zechariah, and Meshullam, of the children of the Kohathites to set it forward: and of the Leuites all that could skill of instruments of musike.

Pea naʻe fai lelei ʻae ngāue ʻe he kau tangata: pea ko e kau enginaki ngāue kiate kinautolu, ko Sehati mo ʻOpataia, ko e ongo Livai ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Melali: mo Sakalia mo Mesulami, ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau Kohate, ke tokoni ʻa hono fai: pea mo e kau Livai niʻihi, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe loto poto ʻi he ngaahi meʻa faiva.

13 And they were ouer the bearers of burdens, and them that set forwarde all the workemen in euery worke: and of the Leuites were scribes, and officers and porters.

Pea naʻa nau pule foki ki he kau [tangata ]haʻamo kavenga, pea ko e kau enginaki ʻakinautolu kiate kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ngāue ʻi he ngāue kotoa pē: pea naʻe ʻi he kau Livai, ʻae kau tangata tohi, mo e kau matāpule, mo e kau leʻo matapā.

14 And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the Lord, Hilkiah the Priest found the booke of the Lawe of the Lord giuen by the hand of Moses.

Pea ʻi heʻenau ʻomi kituaʻā ʻae ngaahi paʻanga ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ki he fale ʻo Sihova, naʻe ʻilo ʻe Hilikia ko e taulaʻeiki ha tohi ʻoe fono ʻa Sihova naʻe tuku ʻe Mōsese.

15 Therefore Hilkiah answered and sayde to Shaphan the chaceler, I haue found the booke of the Law in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gaue the booke to Shaphan.

Pea naʻe lea ʻa Hilikia ʻo pehē kia Safani ko e tangata tohi, “Kuo u ʻilo ʻae tohi ʻoe fono ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.” Pea naʻe ʻatu ʻe Hilikia ʻae tohi kia Safani.

16 And Shaphan caried the booke to the King, and brought the King worde againe, saying, All that is committed to the hand of thy seruants, that do they.

Pea naʻe ʻave ʻae tohi ʻe Safani ki he tuʻi, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻae lea ki he tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fekau ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki kuo nau fai.

17 For they haue gathered the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and haue deliuered it into the handes of the ouerseers, and to the handes of the workemen.

Pea kuo nau tānaki fakataha ʻae paʻanga kotoa pē naʻe ʻilo ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, pea kuo tuku ia ki he nima ʻoe kau enginaki ngāue, pea ki he nima ʻoe kau tangata ngāue.”

18 Also Shaphan ye chanceler declared to the King, saying, Hilkiah the Priest hath giuen mee a booke, and Shaphan read it before the King.

Pea naʻe tala ʻe Safani ko e tangata tohi ki he tuʻi ʻo pehē, “Kuo tuku mai ʻe Hilikia ko e taulaʻeiki ha tohi.” Pea naʻe lau ia ʻe Safani ki he tuʻi.

19 And when the King had heard the wordes of the Lawe, he tare his clothes.

Pea ʻi he ongoʻi ʻe he tuʻi ʻae ngaahi lea ʻae fono, naʻa ne haehae hono ngaahi kofu.

20 And the King commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, and Abdon the sonne of Micah, and Shaphan the chanceler, and Asaiah the Kings seruant, saying,

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi kia Hilikia, mo ʻAhikami ko e foha ʻo Safani, mo ʻApitoni ko e foha ʻo Maika, mo Safani ko e tangata tohi, mo ʻAsahia ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻae tuʻi ʻo pehē,

21 Goe and enquire of the Lord for me, and for the rest in Israel and Iudah, concerning the wordes of this booke that is founde: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is fallen vpon vs, because our fathers haue not kept the worde of the Lord, to doe after all that is written in this booke.

“Mou ʻalu, pea fehuʻi kia Sihova koeʻuhi ko au, pea maʻanautolu ʻoku toe ʻi ʻIsileli mo Siuta, ki he ngaahi lea ʻi he tohi kuo ʻilo: he kuo lahi ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo lingi kiate kitautolu, ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai tauhi ʻe heʻetau ngaahi tamai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova, ke fai ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi.”

22 Then Hilkiah and they that the King had appoynted, went to Huldah the Prophetesse ye wife of Shallum, the sonne of Tokhath, the sonne of Hasrah keeper of the wardrobe (and she dwelt in Ierusalem within the colledge) and they communed hereof with her.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Hilikia, mo kinautolu naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he tuʻi, kia Hulita ko e fefine palōfita ko e uaifi ʻo Salumi ko e foha ʻo Tikiva, ko e foha ʻo Hahasi, ko e tauhi ʻoe ngaahi kofu: (pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he fale ako: ) pea nau lea pehē pe kiate ia.

23 And shee answered them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Tell yee the man that sent you to me,

Pea naʻe lea ia kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, “Mou tala ki he tangata naʻa ne fekau ʻakimoutolu kiate au,

24 Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will bring euill vpon this place, and vpon the inhabitantes thereof, euen all the curses, that are written in the booke which they haue read before the King of Iudah:

‌ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova, Vakai, Te u ʻomi ʻae kovi ki he potu ni, pea ki hono kakai, ʻio, ʻae ngaahi malaʻia kotoa pē ʻaia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻaia naʻa nau lau ʻi he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi ʻo Siuta:

25 Because they haue forsaken me, and burnt incense vnto other gods, to anger mee with al the workes of their hands, therefore shall my wrath fall vpon this place, and shall not be quenched.

Ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau liʻaki au, pea mo e tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe, koeʻuhi ke nau langaʻi ʻeku houhau lahi, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻa honau nima: ko ia ʻe lilingi ai ʻeku houhau lahi ki he potu ni pea ʻe ʻikai fuʻifuʻi ia.

26 But to the King of Iudah, who sent you to enquire of the Lord, so shall ye say vnto him, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The words which thou hast heard, shall come to passe.

Pea koeʻuhi ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, ʻaia naʻa ne fekau ʻakimoutolu ke fehuʻi kia Sihova, te mou tala pehē kiate ia, ʻOku pehē mai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi lea ʻaia kuo ke ongoʻi:

27 But because thine heart did melt, and thou didest humble thy selfe before God, when thou heardest his wordes against this place and against the inhabitantes thereof, and humbledst thy selfe before mee and tarest thy clothes, and weptest before mee, I haue also heard it, sayth the Lord.

Ko e meʻa ʻi he ongongofua ʻa ho loto, pea naʻa ke fakavaivai koe ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi hoʻo ongoʻi ʻene ngaahi valoki ki he potu ni, pea ki he kakai ʻo ia, pea naʻa ke fakavaivai koe ʻi hoku ʻao, mo ke haehae ho ngaahi kofu, pea tangi ʻi hoku ʻao: ʻoku pehē foki ʻe Sihova kuo u ongoʻi koe.

28 Beholde, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt bee put in thy graue in peace, and thine eyes shall not see all the euill, which I will bring vpon this place, and vpon the inhabitants of the same. Thus they brought ye King word againe.

Vakai, te u fakataha koe ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai, pea ʻe tānaki koe ki ho tanuʻanga ʻi he fiemālie pe, pea ʻe ʻikai mamata ʻe ho mata ki he kovi kotoa pē ʻaia te u ʻomi ki he potu ni, pea ki he kakai ʻo ia.” Ko ia naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae lea ki he tuʻi.

29 Then the King sent and gathered all the Elders of Iudah and Ierusalem.

Pea naʻe fekau ai ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ne tānaki fakataha ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo Siuta mo Selūsalema.

30 And the King went vp into the house of the Lord, and all the men of Iudah, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and the Priests and the Leuites, and all the people from the greatest to the smallest, and hee read in their eares all the wordes of the booke of the couenant that was found in the house of the Lord.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae tuʻi ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea mo e kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Siuta, mo e kakai ʻo Selūsalema, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, mo e kau Livai, mo e kakai kotoa pē, ʻae lahi mo e siʻi: pea naʻe lau ʻe ia ʻi honau telinga, ʻae lea kotoa pē ʻoe tohi ʻoe fuakava ʻaia naʻe ʻilo ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova.

31 And the King stood by his pillar, and made a couenant before the Lord, to walke after the Lord, and to keepe his commandements, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soule, and that he would accomplish the wordes of the couenant written in the same booke.

Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻi hono potu, pea fai ʻae fuakava ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ke muimui ia ʻia Sihova, pea ke tauhi ʻene ngaahi fekau, mo ʻene ngaahi fakamoʻoni, mo ʻene ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, ʻaki hono loto kotoa, mo hono laumālie kotoa, ke fai ki he ngaahi lea ʻoe fuakava, ʻaia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ni.

32 And he caused all that were found in Ierusalem, and Beniamin to stande to it: and the inhabitants of Ierusalem did according to the couenant of God, euen the God of their fathers.

Pea naʻa ne fakakau ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻo Selūsalema, mo Penisimani, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ke nau tuʻu ʻo fai ki ai. Pea naʻe fai ʻe he kakai ʻo Selūsalema ʻo fakatatau ki he fuakava ʻae ʻOtua, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai.

33 So Iosiah tooke away al the abominations out of all the countreis that perteined to the children of Israel, and compelled all that were found in Israel, to serue the Lord their God: so all his dayes they turned not backe from the Lord God of their fathers.

Pea naʻe toʻo ʻo ʻave ke mamaʻo ʻe Sosaia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kovi mei he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē naʻe kau ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea ne fakakau ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe kātoa ʻi ʻIsileli ke nau tauhi, ʻio, ke tauhi ʻa Sihova ko honau ʻOtua. Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau liʻaki ʻenau muimui kia Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai, ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoʻona.
