< Chronicles II 29 >
1 And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.
Hesekiah sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kàndínlọ́gbọ̀n orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Abijah ọmọbìnrin Sekariah.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
Ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Dafidi ti ṣe.
3 And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.
Ní oṣù àkọ́kọ́ ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní ìjọba rẹ̀, ó sì ṣí àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn ilé Olúwa ó sì tún wọn ṣe.
4 And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,
Ó sì mú àwọn àlùfáà wá àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi, ó sì kó wọn jọ yíká ìta ìlà-oòrùn.
5 and said to them, Hear, you Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.
Ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ tèmi, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Lefi! Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́ nísinsin yìí kí ẹ sì ya ilé Olúwa Ọlọ́run sí mímọ́, kí ẹ sì kó ohun àìmọ́ baba mi jáde kúrò ní ibi mímọ́.
6 For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.
Àwọn baba wa jẹ́ aláìṣòótọ́; wọ́n sì ṣe ohun àìtọ́ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, wọ́n sì kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀. Wọ́n sì yí ojú wọn padà kúrò ní ibùgbé Olúwa, wọ́n sì pa ẹ̀yìn wọn dà sí i.
7 And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole burnt offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.
Wọ́n sì tún ti ìlẹ̀kùn ìloro náà pẹ̀lú, wọ́n sì pa fìtílà. Wọn kò sì sun tùràrí tàbí pèsè ẹbọ sísun si ibi mímọ́ si Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
8 And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as you see with your eyes.
Nítorí náà, ìbínú Olúwa ti ru sókè wá sórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu ó sì ti fi wọ́n ṣe ohun èlò fún wàhálà, àti ìdààmú àti ẹ̀sín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe fi ojú rẹ̀ rí i.
9 And, behold, your fathers have been struck with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.
Ìdí nìyí tí àwọn baba wa ṣe ṣubú nípa idà àti ìdí tí àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti ọmọbìnrin àti àwọn aya wa tiwọn kó wọ́n ní ìgbèkùn.
10 Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.
Nísinsin yìí ó wà ní ọkàn mi láti bá Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli dá májẹ̀mú. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìbínú rẹ̀ kíkan kí ó lè yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wa.
11 And now be not lacking [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.
Àwọn ọmọ mi, ẹ má ṣe jáfara nísinsin yìí, nítorí tí Olúwa ti yàn yín láti dúró níwájú rẹ̀ láti sin, kí ẹ sì máa ṣe ìránṣẹ́ níwájú rẹ̀ àti láti sun tùràrí.”
12 Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Haelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.
Nígbà náà àwọn ọmọ Lefi wọ̀nyí múra láti ṣe iṣẹ́: nínú àwọn ọmọ Kohati, Mahati ọmọ Amasai: àti Joẹli ọmọ Asariah; nínú àwọn ọmọ Merari, Kiṣi ọmọ Abdi àti Asariah ọmọ Jehaleeli; nínú àwọn ọmọ Gerṣoni, Joah, ọmọ Simma àti Edeni ọmọ Joah;
13 And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:
nínú àwọn ọmọ Elisafani, Ṣimri àti Jeieli; nínú àwọn ọmọ Asafu, Sekariah àti Mattaniah;
14 and of the sons of Aeman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaisa, and Oziel.
nínú àwọn ọmọ Hemani, Jehieli àti Ṣimei; nínú àwọn ọmọ Jedutuni, Ṣemaiah àti Usieli.
15 And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti kó ara wọn jọ pọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin wọn, wọ́n sì ya ara wọn sí mímọ́, wọ́n sì lọ láti gbá ilé Olúwa mọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba ti pa á láṣẹ, ẹ tẹ̀lé ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
16 And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.
Àwọn àlùfáà sì wọ inú ilé Olúwa lọ́hùn ún lọ láti gbá a mọ́. Wọ́n sì gbé e jáde sí inú àgbàlá ilé Olúwa gbogbo ohun àìmọ́ tí wọ́n rí nínú ilé Olúwa. Àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì mú u wọ́n sì gbangba odò Kidironi.
17 And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].
Wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìyàsímímọ́ ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní oṣù kìn-ín-ní, àti ní ọjọ́ kẹjọ oṣù náà wọ́n sì dé ìloro Olúwa. Fún ọjọ́ mẹ́jọ mìíràn sí i, wọ́n sì ya ilé Olúwa sí mímọ́ fúnra rẹ̀. Wọ́n sì parí ní ọjọ́ kẹrìndínlógún oṣù kìn-ín-ní.
18 And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole burnt offering, and its vessels, and the table of show-bread, and its vessels;
Nígbà náà wọn sì lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba Hesekiah láti lọ jábọ̀ fún un: “Àwa ti gbá ilé Olúwa mọ́, pẹpẹ ẹbọ sísun pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun ẹbọ rẹ̀, àti tábìlì àkàrà ìfihàn, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun èlò.
19 and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
A ti pèsè a sì ti yà sí mímọ́ gbogbo ohun èlò tí ọba Ahasi ti sọ di aláìmọ́ nínú àìṣòótọ́ rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó jẹ́ ọba; nísinsin yìí, wọ́n wà níwájú pẹpẹ Olúwa.”
20 And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ọba Hesekiah sì kó olórí àwọn ìjòyè jọ, ó sì lọ sókè ilé Olúwa.
21 And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.
Wọ́n sì mú akọ màlúù méje wá, àti àgbò méje, àti ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn méje àti òbúkọ méje gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún ìjọba, fún ibi mímọ́ àti fún Juda. Ọba pàṣẹ fun àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ọmọ Aaroni, láti ṣe èyí lórí pẹpẹ Olúwa.
22 And they killed the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they killed the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they killed the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì pa akọ màlúù, àwọn àlùfáà mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ náà, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n ara pẹpẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni nígbà tí wọ́n pa àgbò, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọ́n orí pẹpẹ. Nígbà náà wọ́n sì pa ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọn ara pẹpẹ.
23 And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.
Òbúkọ fún ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni wọ́n gbé wá síwájú ọba àti ìjọ ènìyàn, wọ́n sì gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn.
24 And the priests killed them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole burnt offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel.
Àwọn àlùfáà wọn sì pa òbúkọ, wọ́n sì gbé ẹ̀jẹ̀ kalẹ̀ lórí pẹpẹ fún ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ láti ṣe ètùtù fún gbogbo Israẹli, nítorí ọba ti pàṣẹ kí a ṣe ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún gbogbo Israẹli.
25 And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.
Ó sì mú àwọn Lefi dúró nínú ilé Olúwa pẹ̀lú Kimbali, ohun èlò orin olókùn àti dùùrù ní ọ̀nà tí a ti paláṣẹ fún wọn láti ọ̀dọ̀ Dafidi àti Gadi aríran ọba àti Natani wòlíì. Èyí ni a pàṣẹ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa láti ọwọ́ àwọn wòlíì rẹ̀.
26 And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì dúró pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin Dafidi, àti àwọn àlùfáà pẹ̀lú ìpè wọn.
27 And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole burnt offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole burnt offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.
Hesekiah sì pa á láṣẹ láti rú ẹbọ sísun lórí pẹpẹ, bí ẹbọ sísun náà ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, orin sí Olúwa bẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìpè àti pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin Dafidi ọba Israẹli.
28 And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole burnt sacrifice had been completely offered.
Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn náà sì wólẹ̀ sìn, àwọn akọrin kọrin, àwọn afùnpè sì fọn ìpè, gbogbo wọ̀nyí sì wà bẹ́ẹ̀ títí ẹbọ sísun náà fi parí tán.
29 And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ṣe ìparí ẹbọ rírú, ọba àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tẹ ara wọn ba, wọ́n sì sìn.
30 And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.
Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú Hesekiah ọba, àti àwọn ìjòyè pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi, láti fi ọ̀rọ̀ Dafidi àti ti Asafu aríran, kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa: wọ́n sì fi inú dídùn kọrin ìyìn, wọ́n sì tẹrí wọn ba, wọ́n sì sìn.
31 Then Ezekias answered and said, Now you have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole burnt offerings.
Nígbà náà ni Hesekiah dáhùn, ó sì wí pé, nísinsin yìí, ọwọ́ yín kún fún ẹ̀bùn fún Olúwa, ẹ súnmọ́ ìhín, kí ẹ sì mú ẹbọ àti ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ wá sínú ilé Olúwa. Ìjọ ènìyàn sì mú ẹbọ àti ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ wá; àti olúkúlùkù tí ọkàn rẹ̀ fẹ́, mú ẹbọ sísun wá.
32 And the number of the whole burnt offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
Iye ẹbọ sísun, tí ìjọ ènìyàn mú wá, sì jẹ́ àádọ́rin akọ màlúù, àti ọgọ́rùn-ún àgbò, àti igba ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn, gbogbo wọ̀nyí sì ni fún ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa.
33 And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.
Àwọn ohun ìyàsímímọ́ sì jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀ta màlúù, àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àgùntàn.
34 But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole burnt offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn àlùfáà kò pọ̀ tó, wọn kò sì le bó gbogbo àwọn ẹran ẹbọ sísun náà: nítorí náà àwọn arákùnrin wọn, àwọn Lefi ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́, títí iṣẹ́ náà fi parí, àti títí àwọn àlùfáà ìyókù fi yà wọ́n sí mímọ́: nítorí àwọn ọmọ Lefi ṣe olóòtítọ́ ní ọkàn ju àwọn àlùfáà lọ láti ya ara wọn sí mímọ́.
35 And the whole burnt offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole burnt sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.
Àti pẹ̀lú, àwọn ẹbọ sísun pàpọ̀jù, pẹ̀lú ọ̀rá ẹbọ àlàáfíà, pẹ̀lú ẹbọ ohun mímu fún ẹbọ sísun. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a sì tún bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ ìsìn ilé Olúwa.
36 And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
Hesekiah sì yọ̀, àti gbogbo ènìyàn pé, Ọlọ́run ti múra àwọn ènìyàn náà sílẹ̀, nítorí lójijì ni a ṣe nǹkan náà.
