< 2 Chronicles 35 >
1 And Josiah makes a Passover to YHWH in Jerusalem, and they slaughter the Passover-offering on the fourteenth of the first month,
Josia nĩakũngũĩire Bathaka ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu, nako gatũrũme ka Bathaka gaathĩnjirwo mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri wa mbere.
2 and he stations the priests over their charges, and strengthens them for the service of the house of YHWH,
Akĩamũra athĩnjĩri-Ngai na akĩmaiga mawĩra-inĩ mao, akĩmekĩra hinya makĩgĩa na kĩyo gĩa gũtungata hekarũ ya Jehova.
3 and says to the Levites who are teaching all Israel, who are sanctified to YHWH, “Put the holy Ark in the house that Solomon son of David, king of Israel, built; it is not a burden on the shoulder to you. Now serve your God YHWH and His people Israel,
Akĩĩra Alawii arĩa maarutanaga Isiraeli guothe na maarĩkĩtie kwamũrĩrwo Jehova atĩrĩ: “Igai ithandũkũ rĩrĩa rĩamũre hekarũ-inĩ ĩrĩa yaakirwo nĩ Solomoni mũrũ wa Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli. Mũtirĩrĩkuuaga na ciande. Na rĩrĩ, tungatagĩrai Jehova Ngai wanyu, na andũ ake a Isiraeli.
4 and prepare, by the house of your fathers, according to your divisions, by the writing of David king of Israel, and by the writing of his son Solomon,
Mwĩhaarĩriei kũringana na nyũmba cianyu na ũrĩa ikundi cianyu itariĩ, na kũringana na watho ũrĩa waandĩkĩtwo nĩ Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli na mũriũ Solomoni.
5 and stand in the holy place, by the divisions of the house of the fathers of your brothers, sons of the people, and the portion of the house of a father of the Levites,
“Rũgamai handũ harĩa hatheru mũrĩ na gĩkundi kĩa Alawii, kĩrũgamĩrĩire o gakundi ka nyũmba cia andũ a bũrũri wanyu arĩa matarĩ Alawii.
6 and slaughter the Passover-offering and sanctify yourselves, and prepare for your brothers, to do according to the word of YHWH by the hand of Moses.”
Thĩnjai tũtũrũme twa Bathaka, mwĩamũre na mũhaarĩrie tũtũrũme tũu nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a bũrũri wanyu, mwĩke ũrĩa Jehova aathanire na kanua ka Musa.”
7 And Josiah lifts up to the sons of the people a flock of lambs and young goats, the whole for Passover-offerings, for everyone who is found, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand oxen: these [are] from the substance of the king.
Josia akĩrutĩra andũ arĩa mataarĩ Alawii arĩa maarĩ hau mũigana wa ngʼondu na mbũri 30,000 cia igongona rĩa Bathaka, o na ngʼombe 3,000, ciothe ciumĩte harĩ indo cia mũthamaki.
8 And his heads, for a willing-offering to the people, to the priests and to the Levites, have lifted up; Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, leaders in the house of God, have given two thousand and six hundred to the priests for Passover-offerings, and three hundred oxen;
Anene ake o nao nĩmarutĩire andũ, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, o na Alawii indo meyendeire. Hilikia, na Zekaria, na Jehieli, arĩa maarĩ arũgamĩrĩri a hekarũ ya Ngai, nĩmaheire athĩnjĩri-Ngai indo 2,600 cia maruta ma Bathaka, na ngʼombe 300.
9 and Conaniah, and Shemaiah, and Nethaneel, his brothers, and Hashabiah, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, have lifted up five thousand to the Levites for Passover-offerings, and five hundred oxen.
O na Konania, marĩ na Shemaia na Nathaneli ariũ a ithe, na Hashabia, na Jeieli, na Jozabadu, arĩa atongoria a Alawii, makĩruta mũigana wa indo 5,000 cia maruta ma Bathaka, na ngʼombe 500 cia Alawii.
10 And the service is prepared, and the priests stand on their station, and the Levites on their divisions, according to the command of the king,
Naguo ũtungata ũgĩtabarĩrio, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩrũgama handũ hao hamwe na Alawii marĩ ikundi-inĩ ciao o ta ũrĩa mũthamaki aathanĩte.
11 and they slaughter the Passover-offering, and the priests sprinkle out of their hand, and the Levites are stripping [them];
Natuo tũtũrũme twa Bathaka tũgĩthĩnjwo, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩminjaminja thakame ĩrĩa maanengeretwo, o Alawii magĩthĩnjaga nyamũ icio.
12 and they turn aside the burnt-offering to put them by the divisions of the house of the fathers of the sons of the people, to bring near to YHWH, as it is written in the scroll of Moses—and so for the oxen.
Nao makĩiga maruta ma njino mwanya nĩguo mamaheane kũrĩ tũkundi twa nyũmba cia andũ, nĩguo marutĩre Jehova, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Musa. Ũguo noguo meekire ũhoro-inĩ wa ngʼombe.
13 And they cook the Passover with fire according to the ordinance, and they have cooked the sanctified things in pots, and in kettles, and in pans—for all the sons of the people.
Nao makĩhĩhia nyamũ cia Bathaka mwaki-inĩ, ta ũrĩa gwatuĩtwo, nacio indo cia igongona iria nyamũre igĩtherũkio na nyũngũ, na itengʼũ, o na nyũngũ cia igera, na igĩcooka ikĩgaĩrwo andũ othe o narua.
14 And afterward they have prepared for themselves and for the priests; for the priests, sons of Aaron, [are occupied] in the offering up of the burnt-offering and of the fat until night; and the Levites have prepared for themselves and for the priests, sons of Aaron.
Thuutha wa ũguo magĩĩthondekera o ene, o na magĩthondekera athĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩgũkorwo athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa maarĩ a rũciaro rwa Harũni, nĩmarutaga maruta ma njino na ma maguta nginya hwaĩ-inĩ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Alawii nĩmethondekeire nyama ciao o ene, na cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai a rũciaro rwa Harũni.
15 And the singers, sons of Asaph, [are] on their station according to the command of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun seer of the king, and the gatekeepers [are] at every gate; it is not for them to turn aside from off their service, for their brothers the Levites have prepared for them.
Nao aini a njiaro cia Asafu, maikarĩte o kũndũ kũrĩa kwahaarĩirio nĩ Daudi, na Asafu, na Hemani, na Jeduthuni ũrĩa woonagĩra mũthamaki maũndũ. Nao aikaria a ihingo matiarĩ na gĩtũmi gĩa kuuma harĩa maigĩtwo, nĩgũkorwo Alawii acio a thiritũ yao nĩmamathondekeire indo ciao cia Bathaka.
16 And all the service of YHWH is prepared on that day to keep the Passover and to cause burnt-offering to ascend on the altar of YHWH, according to the command of King Josiah.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ihinda rĩu ũtungata wothe wa Jehova wa gũkũngũĩra Bathaka na iruta rĩa njino, warutĩirwo kĩgongona-inĩ kĩa Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Mũthamaki Josia aathanĩte.
17 And the sons of Israel who are found make the Passover at that time, and the Celebration of Unleavened Things, [for] seven days.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ ho magĩkũngũĩra Bathaka ihinda-inĩ rĩu, na makĩgĩa na Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia kahinda ka mĩthenya mũgwanja.
18 And there has not been made a Passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, and none of the kings of Israel made such a Passover as Josiah has made, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who are found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Nakuo gũtiagĩte na Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka kĩhaana ta kĩu kũu Isiraeli kuuma matukũ-inĩ ma mũnabii Samũeli; na gũtirĩ mũthamaki o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli wakũngũĩire Bathaka ta ũrĩa Josia aamĩkũngũĩire, marĩ hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii, na andũ othe a Juda na a Isiraeli, o hamwe na andũ a Jerusalemu.
19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah this Passover has been made.
Bathaka ĩyo yakũngũĩirwo mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩnana wa wathani wa Josia.
20 After all this, when Josiah has prepared the house, Necho king of Egypt has come up to fight against Carchemish by the Euphrates, and Josiah goes forth to meet him;
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Josia aakorirwo aigĩte hekarũ na njĩra njega, Neko mũthamaki wa Misiri nĩambatire akarũĩre handũ heetagwo Karikemishi Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Farati, nake Josia akiumagara akahũũrane nake.
21 and he sends messengers to him, saying, “And what do I [have to do] with you, O king of Judah? I do not come against you today, but to the house with which I have war, and God commanded to hurry me; cease for yourself from God who [is] with me, and He does not destroy you.”
No Neko akĩmũtũmĩra andũ makamũũrie atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩ na haaro ĩrĩkũ niĩ nawe, wee mũthamaki wa Juda? Tiwe ndĩratharĩkĩra kahinda gaka, no ndĩ na nyũmba ĩrĩa ndĩ na mbaara nayo. Ngai anjĩĩrĩte hiũhe; nĩ ũndũ ũcio tiga gũkararia Ngai, ũrĩa ũrĩ hamwe na niĩ, kana akwanange.”
22 And Josiah has not turned around his face from him, but has disguised himself to fight against him, and has not listened to the words of Necho, from the mouth of God, and comes to fight in the Valley of Megiddo;
No rĩrĩ, Josia ndaigana kũgarũrũka atigane nake, no nĩ kwĩgarũra egarũrire nĩguo ndakamenyeke nĩgeetha akarũe nake. Ndaigana gũthikĩrĩria ũrĩa Neko aathĩtwo nĩ Ngai oige, no nĩathiire kũrũa nake werũ-inĩ wa Megido.
23 and the archers shoot at King Josiah, and the king says to his servants, “Remove me, for I have become very sick.”
Nao aikia a mĩguĩ makĩratha Mũthamaki Josia nayo, nake akĩĩra ndungata ciake atĩrĩ, “Njeheriai haha nĩ ũndũ nĩndagurario mũno.”
24 And his servants remove him from the chariot, and cause him to ride on the second chariot that he has, and cause him to go to Jerusalem, and he dies, and is buried in the graves of his fathers, and all Judah and Jerusalem are mourning for Josiah,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũruta ngaari-inĩ yake ya mbaara, makĩmũhaicia ngaari-inĩ ĩngĩ okĩte nayo, makĩmũtwara Jerusalemu kũrĩa aakuĩrĩire. Nake agĩthikwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ cia maithe make, nao andũ othe a Juda na Jerusalemu makĩmũcakaĩra.
25 and Jeremiah laments for Josiah, and all the male and female singers speak in their lamentations of Josiah to this day, and set them for a statute on Israel, and behold, they are written beside the Lamentations.
Jeremia nĩandĩkire macakaya makoniĩ Josia, na nginya ũmũthĩ aini othe arũme na andũ-a-nja nĩmaririkanaga Josia macakaya-inĩ macio. Macakaya macio magĩtuĩka mũtugo wa gwĩkagwo thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, na ũkĩandĩkwo Macakaya-inĩ.
26 And the rest of the matters of Josiah and his kind acts, according as it is written in the Law of YHWH,
Namo maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Josia na ciĩko ciake cia wĩrutĩri, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ wa Jehova,
27 even his matters, the first and the last, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah.
na nĩmo maũndũ mothe, kuuma kĩambĩrĩria nginya mũthia, maandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli na a Juda.
