< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 And at the completion of all this, all [those of] Israel who are found present have gone out to the cities of Judah, and break the standing-pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and break down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Manasseh, even to completion, and all the sons of Israel return, each to his possession, to their cities.
Mgbe ihe niile a gwụsịrị, ndị Izrel bụ ndị nọ nʼebe ahụ pụrụ gaa nʼobodo niile dị na Juda, kurisie ogidi nsọ niile, gbutukwa ogidi Ashera niile.

2 And Hezekiah appoints the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, by their divisions, each according to his service, of the priests and of the Levites, for burnt-offering and for peace-offerings, to minister and to give thanks, and to give praise in the gates of the camps of YHWH.
Hezekaya kenyekwara ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị nʼusoro ịrụ ọrụ ha nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke ụbọchị niile, maka ọrụ ịchụ aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo, na inye ekele, na ito Onyenwe anyị nʼọnụ ụzọ ama ebe obibi ya.
3 And a portion of the king, from his substance, [is] for burnt-offerings, for burnt-offerings of the morning and of the evening, and the burnt-offerings of Sabbaths, and of new moons, and of appointed times, as it is written in the Law of YHWH.
Eze nyekwara ụtụ nke ya site nʼihe nweta ya maka iji chụọ aja nsure ọkụ, nke ụtụtụ na abalị, ya na aja nsure ọkụ nke ụbọchị izuike niile na ọnwa ọhụrụ, na nke mmemme niile a kara aka a na-eme dịka ọ dị nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị.
4 And he commands to the people, to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and of the Levites, so that they are strengthened in the Law of YHWH;
O nyekwara ndị bi na Jerusalem iwu ka ha na-ewebatara ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị oke nke ruuru ha, ka ha nwee ike lebanye anya nke ọma nʼiwu Onyenwe anyị.
5 and at the spreading forth of the thing, the sons of Israel have multiplied the first-fruit of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field, and they have brought in the tithe of the whole in abundance.
Ngwangwa e kwusara okwu a, ụmụ Izrel niile wetara onyinye ha nʼebe ọ bara ụba. Ha wetara mkpụrụ mbụ nke ọka ha, na mmanya vaịnị ọhụrụ ha, na mmanụ oliv, na mmanụ aṅụ, na ihe omume niile nke ubi. Ha wetakwara nʼụba otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri nke ihe niile ọzọ ha nwere.
6 And the sons of Israel and Judah, those dwelling in cities of Judah, have also brought in a tithe of herd and flock, and a tithe of the holy things that are sanctified to their God YHWH, and they set [them in] heaps of heaps.
Ndị Izrel na Juda niile bi nʼobodo Juda bubatakwara otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri nke igwe ehi, na igwe ewu na atụrụ, na otu ụzọ nʼụzọ iri nke ihe nsọ niile edoro nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ha. Ha doro ha niile nʼukwu nʼukwu
7 In the third month they have begun to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month they have finished.
Ha bidoro iwebata ihe ndị a site nʼọnwa nke atọ nʼafọ ruo nʼọnwa nke asaa.
8 And Hezekiah and the heads come in and see the heaps, and bless YHWH and His people Israel,
Mgbe Hezekaya na ndịisi ya bịara hụ ukwu ihe ndị ahụ niile, ha toro Onyenwe anyị, gọziekwa ndị ya bụ Izrel.
9 and Hezekiah inquires at the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps,
Hezekaya jụrụ ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị banyere onyinye ndị ahụ e bubatara.
10 and Azariah the head priest, of the house of Zadok, speaks to him and says, “From the beginning of the bringing of the raised-offering to the house of YHWH, [there is enough] to eat, and to be satisfied, and to leave abundantly, for YHWH has blessed His people, and that left [is] this store.”
Azaraya, onyeisi nchụaja, onye sitere nʼikwu Zadọk zara sị ya; “Lee, kemgbe ndị mmadụ malitere iwebata onyinye ha nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị o nwebeghị ihe kọrọ anyị. Nʼezie, anyị nwere karịa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị agọziela ndị ya. Leekwa ihe dị ukwuu ka fọdụrụ.”
11 And Hezekiah commands to prepare chambers in the house of YHWH, and they prepare,
Hezekaya nyere iwu ka e edozie ụlọ ịchịkọba ihe nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ. Ha mekwara otu a.
12 and they bring in the raised-offering, and the tithe, and the holy things faithfully; and over them is a leader, Conaniah the Levite, and his brother Shimei [is] second;
Emesịa, ha jiri ikwesi ntụkwasị obi bubata onyinye ndị ahụ, na onyinye nke otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri, na onyinye e doro nsọ, tifee ha nʼaka Konanaya, onye Livayị. Shimei nwanne ya nwoke bụ onye na-esote ya.
13 and Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, [are] inspectors under the hand of Conaniah and his brother Shimei, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah leader of the house of God.
Jehiel, Azazaya, Nahat, Asahel, Jerimot, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakaya, Mahat na Benaya, bụ ndị nlekọta ọrụ ndị nọ nʼokpuru Konanaya na Shimei nwanne ya. Ndị a niile bụ ndị eze Hezekaya na Azaraya onye nlekọta ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke họpụtara.
14 And Kore son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east, [is] over the willing-offerings of God, to give the raised-offering of YHWH, and the most holy things.
Kore nwa Imna, onye Livayị, onye bụkwa onye na-elekọta ọnụ ụzọ ama dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ, ka e tinyere ọrụ ilekọta onyinye afọ ofufu niile e wetaara Chineke. Ọ bụ ya nwekwa ọrụ ikesa onyinye ndị ahụ niile e bubataara Onyenwe anyị ha na onyinye ndị ọzọ e doro nsọ.
15 And by his hand [are] Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shechaniah, in cities of the priests, faithfully to give to their brothers in divisions, as the great so the small,
Ndị na-enyere ya aka bụ Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaya, Amaraya na Shekanaya. Ha na-eke onyinye ahụ nye ndị nchụaja niile nʼobodo ahụ, onye ukwu na onye nta, dịka usoro ịrụ ọrụ ha si dị. Ha ji ikwesi ntụkwasị obi na-enyere ya aka.
16 apart from their genealogy, to males from a son of three years and upward, to everyone who has gone into the house of YHWH, by the matter of a day in its day, for their service in their charges, according to their divisions;
Ọzọkwa, ndị ikom niile si nʼezinaụlọ ndị nchụaja, ndị gbara site nʼafọ atọ gbagoo, ndị aha ha dị nʼakwụkwọ usoro ọmụmụ, bụ ndị na-arụ ọrụ nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na-eketa oke ihe oriri ha na-eri mgbe ọbụla ha bịara ịrụ ọrụ dịka usoro ọrụ ha si dị.
17 and the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and of the Levites, from a son of twenty years and upward, in their charges, in their divisions;
Ha na-ekenye ndị nchụaja niile e dere aha ha nʼakwụkwọ usoro ọmụmụ, kenyekwa ndị Livayị niile gbara site iri afọ abụọ gbagoo ihe oriri dịka usoro ọrụ ha si dị.
18 and to the genealogy among all their infants, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters to all the congregation, for in their faithfulness they sanctify themselves in holiness.
Ndị na-esokwa keta oke ndị a bụ ụmụntakịrị, na ndị inyom, na ụmụ ndị ikom na ndị inyom na-etolite etolite, bụ ndị niile e depụtara aha ha nʼakwụkwọ usoro ọmụmụ. Ndị a bụ ndị kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nʼido onwe ha nsọ.
19 And for sons of Aaron, the priests, in the fields of the outskirt of their cities, in each and every city, [are] men who have been defined by name, to give portions to every male among the priests, and to everyone who reckoned himself by genealogy among the Levites.
A họpụtara ụfọdụ ndị ikom ndị ọrụ ha bụ ike nri nye ndị nchụaja niile bụ ụmụ ụmụ Erọn. Ndị nchụaja a na-ekwu ihe banyere ha nʼebe a bụ ndị ahụ bi nʼala ubi nke gbara obodo ndị nchụaja gburugburu, maọbụ ndị bi nʼobodo ndị ọzọ. Ndị a bụkwa ndị e dere aha ha niile nʼakwụkwọ usoro ọmụmụ ndị Livayị.
20 And Hezekiah does thus in all Judah, and does that which is good, and that which is right, and that which is true, before his God YHWH;
Ndị a bụ ihe ndị Hezekaya mere nʼime Juda niile, ọ na-eme ihe dị mma, na nke ziri ezi, nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke ya.
21 and in every work that he has begun for the service of the house of God, and for the Law, and for the command, to seek for his God with all his heart, he has worked and prospered.
Nʼime ihe niile o mere, nke metụtara ije ozi nke ụlọ ukwu Chineke, na idebe iwu niile na ụkpụrụ niile Onyenwe anyị nyere, Hezekaya ji obi ya niile gbasoo Chineke. O jikwa obi ya niile jee ozi niile o jere. Nke a mekwara ka ihe gaara ya nke ọma.
