2 Chronicles 31
1 And when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the statues, and cut down the groves, and pulled down the high-places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Menasseh, until they had made an end of them all. Then returned all the children of Israel every man to his possession, to their own cities.
Afahyɛ no twaa mu no, Israelfo a wɔkɔɔ bi no kɔɔ Yuda, Benyamin, Efraim ne Manase nkurow nyinaa so, kɔsɛee afadum kronkron no, twitwaa Asera nnua no, yiyii abosonsomfo nsɔree so ne afɔremuka no. Eyi akyi, Israelfo no san kɔɔ wɔn nkurow so ne wɔn afi mu.
2 And Hezekiah stationed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, of the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camps of the Lord.
Hesekia kyekyɛɛ asɔfo no ne Lewifo no mu akuwakuw, sɛ wɔmmɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne asomdwoe afɔre, sɛ wɔnsom, na wɔmfa aseda ne nkamfo mma Awurade wɔ Asɔredan no apon ano.
3 The king also gave a portion from his own property for the burnt-offerings, [namely, ] for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, and the burnt-offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new-moons, and for the appointed feasts, as it is written in the law of the Lord.
Ɔhene no ankasa fii nea ɔwɔ mu maa anɔpa ne anwummere, nnaawɔtwe homeda afahyɛ ne Ɔsram Foforo Afahyɛ no ne afirihyia afɔre a aka no ɔhyew afɔrebɔde, sɛnea wɔakyerɛw wɔ Awurade Mmara no mu no.
4 Moreover he said to the people, to those who dwelt in Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, in order that they might hold firmly to the law of the Lord.
Ɔhyɛɛ sɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Yerusalem no mfa nea wonya mu kyɛfa a mmara no ka no bɛma asɔfo no ne Lewifo no, sɛnea ɛbɛma wɔde wɔn ho nyinaa ahyɛ Awurade Mmara no mu.
5 And when the matter was spread abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the first-fruits of corn, of the new wine, and of oil, and of honey, and of all the products of the field: and the tithe of all things did they bring [likewise] in abundance.
Nnipa no tiee no aso pa mu, na wofi koma pa mu de atoko, nsa foforo, ngo, ɛwo ne wɔn nnɔbae nkae mu nea edi kan nyinaa bae. Wɔde wɔn ahode biara mu ntotoso du du bae.
6 And as for the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were hallowed unto the Lord their God, and gave [them] by heaps.
Nnipa a wotu fii Israel baa Yuda no ne Yudafo no ankasa de wɔn anantwi ne wɔn nguan so ntotoso du du ne nneɛma a wɔahyira so ama Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn no so ntotoso du du bae. Wɔboaa ano ma ɛyɛɛ akuw akɛseakɛse.
7 In the third month did they begin to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month did they finish them.
Wɔde saa ntotoso du du a edi kan no baa ɔsram a ɛto so abiɛsa no awiei mu, na nneɛma no anoboa kɔɔ so kosii ɔsram a ɛto so ason no mfiase mu.
8 And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord, and his people Israel.
Bere a Hesekia ne ne mpanyimfo behuu nneɛma no dodow no, wɔdaa Awurade ne ne nkurɔfo Israel ase.
9 Then made Hezekiah inquiry of the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
Hesekia bisaa asɔfo no ne Lewifo no se, “Ɛhe na eyinom nyinaa fi bae?”
10 Then spoke to him 'Azaryahu the chief priest of the house of Zadok, and said, Since it was begun to bring the heave-offerings into the house of the Lord, there hath been enough to eat, and to leave in great abundance; for the Lord hath blessed his people: and that which is left is this great mass.
Na ɔsɔfopanyin Asaria a ofi Sadok abusua mu buae se, “Efi bere a ɔmanfo fii ase sɛ wɔde akyɛde reba Awurade Asɔredan mu no, yɛanya bebree a yebedi ama bi aka, efisɛ Awurade ahyira ne nkurɔfo.”
11 Then ordered Hezekiah to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord: and they prepared them.
Hesekia yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ obenya adekoradan wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu, na wɔyɛe.
12 And they brought in the heave-offerings, and the tithes, and the sanctified things, in faithfulness: and over them were appointed the ruler Conanyahu the Levite, and Shim'i his brother the second in rank.
Na wodii nokware de akyɛde no ne ntotoso du du no nyinaa baa Asɔredan no mu. Wɔde hyɛɛ Lewini Kenania nsa maa ne nua Simei yɛɛ ne boafo.
13 And Jechiel, and 'Azazyahu, and Nachath, and 'Assahel, and Jerimoth. and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Yissmachyahu, and Machath, and Benayahu, were overseers under the supervision of Conanyahu and Shim'i his brother, by the appointment of king Hezekiah, and 'Azazyahu the ruler of the house of God.
Na Yehiel, Asasia, Nahat, Asahel, Yerimot, Yosabad, Eliel, Ismakia, Mahat ne Benaia yɛ wɔn a wɔhwɛ hɔ no aboafo. Ɔhene Hesekia ne Asaria a na ɔyɛ wɔn a na wɔhwɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu so panyin no na wɔkyekyɛɛ saa dibea ahorow yi.
14 And Kore the son of Yimnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east side. was over the freewill-offerings of God, to give [to him] the heave-offerings of the Lord, and the most holy things.
Lewini Yimna babarima Kore a ɔyɛ Apuei Pon ano hwɛfo no na wɔde hyɛɛ ne nsa sɛ ɔnkyekyɛ Onyankopɔn ayamye afɔrebɔde a ɛyɛ akyɛde ne nneɛma a wɔde ama Awurade no.
15 And under his supervision were 'Eden, and Minyamin, and Jeshua', and Shema-yahu, Amaryahu, and Shechanyahu, in the cities of the priests, in faithfulness, to give to their brethren after the divisions, equally to the great as to the small;
Nʼaboafo nokwafo no ne Eden, Miniamin, Yesua, Semaia, Amaria ne Sekania. Na wɔkyekyɛɛ nneɛma no maa asɔfo mmusua a wɔwɔ wɔn nkurow so sɛnea wɔn nkyekyɛmu te, na wɔkyɛɛ nneɛma no pɛpɛɛpɛ maa mmofra ne mpanyin.
16 Besides [these] to those recorded by their genealogies of males, from three years old and upward, of all that entered into the house of the Lord, the daily portion on its day, for their service in their charges according to their divisions.
Na wɔkyɛɛ mmarimaa a wɔadi mfe abiɛsa rekɔ nyinaa akyɛde no bi a wɔn din wɔ wɔn anato nhoma mu, na da biara wɔkɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu, kɔyɛ wɔn nnwuma a wɔde ahyɛ wɔn kuw no nsa no.
17 And likewise to the priests recorded by their genealogies after their family divisions, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their divisions;
Na wɔkyɛɛ nneɛma no maa asɔfo a wɔakyerɛw wɔn din wɔ wɔn anato nhoma mu ne Lewifo a wɔadi mfe aduonu ne nea ɛboro saa, a wɔahyehyɛ wɔn din sɛnea wɔn nnwuma ne wɔn nkyekyɛmu te no.
18 And to those recorded by their genealogies of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, of all the assembly; for in their faithfulness they devoted themselves in the sanctuary.
Na wɔmaa abusuafo a wɔakyerɛw wɔn din wɔ anato nhoma mu a nkokoaa, ɔyerenom ne mmabarima ne mmabea nso ka ho nnuan. Efisɛ na wɔadi nokware adwira wɔn ho.
19 Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the open districts of their cities, in each and every city, there were men, expressed by name, who had to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were recorded by their genealogies among the Levites.
Na asɔfo, Aaron asefo a na wɔtete nkuraa a atwa nkurow no ho ahyia no anaa nkurow no mu no de, woyiyii nnipa ma wɔkyɛɛ ɔbarima biara a ɔfra asɔfo no mu ne Lewifo a wɔakyerɛw wɔn din anato mu no nneɛma no bi.
20 And the like did Hezekiah in all Judah, and he did what is good and right and true before the Lord his God.
Saa ɔkwan yi so na Hesekia fa kyɛɛ nneɛma wɔ Yudaman no mu nyinaa, na ɔyɛɛ nea ɛfata na ɛsɔ Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn ani.
21 And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he acted with all his heart, and prospered.
Nea Hesekia yɛɛ nyinaa de som wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no mu, ne mmɔden a ɔbɔɔ sɛ obedi ne mmara ne nʼahyɛde so no, ɔde ne koma nyinaa hwehwɛɛ ne Nyankopɔn. Ne saa nti, ɛma onyaa nkɔso bebree.
