2 Chronicles 30
1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD, the God of Israel.
Hezekia ɖo du ɖe Israel kple Yuda blibo la eye wòŋlɔ agbalẽwo hã ɖo ɖe Efraim kple Manase toawo, nɔ wo kpem be woava Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me le Yerusalem eye woaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la.
2 For the king had taken counsel, and his princes, and all the congregation in Jerusalem, to keep the passover in the second month.
Fia la kple eƒe dziɖulawo kple ameha blibo la si nɔ Yerusalem ɖo tame be yewoaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le ɣleti evelia me.
3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves in sufficient number, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.
Womete ŋu ɖu ŋkekenyui sia le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖi la dzi ƒe sia ƒe o elabena nunɔla siwo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu la mesɔ gbɔ o eye ameawo mekpe ta ɖe Yerusalem o.
4 And the thing was right in the eyes of the king and of all the congregation.
Fia la kple eƒe aɖaŋudelawo katã lɔ̃ ɖe ɖoɖo sia dzi
5 So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto the LORD, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem: for they had not kept it in great numbers in such sort as it is written.
eya ta woɖe gbeƒã Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu to Israelnyigba blibo la dzi, tso Dan yi Beerseba eye wokpe ame sia ame va Yerusalem hena ŋkekenyuia ɖuɖu na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la, elabena eteƒe didi Israelviwo megaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la kpɔ, abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi ene o.
6 So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, turn again unto the LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, that he may return to the remnant that are escaped of you out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
Dɔlawo xɔ agbalẽawo le fia la kple eƒe amegãwo si ɖatsa le le Israel blibo la kple Yuda eye wogblɔ le fia la ƒe sedede nu be be, “Israelviwo, mitrɔ gbɔ va Yehowa, Abraham kple Isak kple Israel ƒe Mawu la gbɔ, ale be eya hã natrɔ ɖe mi ame siwo do le Asiria fiawo ƒe ŋusẽ te la ŋu.
7 And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD, the God of their fathers, so that he gave them up to desolation, as ye see.
Miganɔ abe mia nɔviwo, ame siwo wɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu ŋu eye wòtsrɔ̃ wo la ene o.
8 Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were; but yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever, and serve the LORD your God, that his fierce anger may turn away from you.
Miganye kɔlialiatɔwo abe woawo ene o, ke boŋ miɖe asi le mia ɖokuiwo ŋu na Yehowa eye miatrɔ va eƒe gbedoxɔ si ŋu wokɔ tegbee la me. Misubɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ale be eƒe dɔmedzoe helihelĩ la naɖe ɖa le mia dzi.
9 For if ye turn again unto the LORD, your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that led them captive, and shall come again into this land: for the LORD your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him.
Ne miegatrɔ ɖe Aƒetɔ la ŋu la, ame siwo ɖe aboyo mia nɔviwo kple mia viwo la, akpɔ nublanui na wo eye woagate ŋu atrɔ agbɔ va anyigba sia dzi elabena Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ƒe dɔme nyo eye eƒe amenuveve li tegbee eya ta magble mí ɖi, ne míetrɔ ɖe eŋu o.”
10 So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them.
Ale dɔlawo tsa le duwo katã me le Efraim kple Manase kple Zebulon. Ke enuenu la, ameawo xɔa wo kple nukoko kple vlodoame!
11 Nevertheless divers of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
Ke ame aɖewo ya tso Aser, Manase kple Zebulon ƒe viwo dome trɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu eye wova Yerusalem.
12 Also in Judah was the hand of God to give them one heart, to do the commandment of the king and of the princes by the word of the LORD.
Le Yuda la, Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ nyɔ didi sesẽ aɖe le dukɔ blibo la me be woawɔ Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi abe ale si fia la kple eŋumewo bia tso wo si la ene.
13 And there assembled at Jerusalem much people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation.
Ale ameha gã aɖe va kpe ta ɖe Yerusalem le ɣleti evelia me hena Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu.
14 And they arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense took they away, and cast them into the brook Kidron.
Wogbã trɔ̃subɔlawo ƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo kple dzudzɔdovɔsamlekpuiwo katã le Yerusalem eye wolɔ woƒe gbagbãwo yi ɖakɔ ɖe Kidron tɔʋu la me.
15 Then they killed the passover on the fourteenth [day] of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt offerings into the house of the LORD.
Le ɣleti evelia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, ameawo wu alẽviwo hena Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu. Ŋukpe lé nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo, ale wokɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu eye wotsɔ numevɔsanuwo yi gbedoxɔ la me.
16 And they stood in their place after their order, according to the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood, [which they received] of the hand of the Levites.
Wotsi tsitre ɖe woƒe nɔƒewo abe ale si Mose, Mawu ƒe ame la, ƒe sewo ɖo na wo ene. Levitɔwo tsɔ vɔsalẽwo ƒe ʋu na nunɔlawo eye wohlẽe.
17 For there were many in the congregation that had not sanctified themselves: therefore the Levites had the charge of killing the passovers for every one that was not clean, to sanctify them unto the LORD.
Esi ameawo dometɔ geɖewo mekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu o ta la, womete ŋu wu alẽviwo na Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu o eya ta Levitɔwo wu wo na wo eye wotsɔ alẽviawo de asi na Yehowa.
18 For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet did they eat the passover otherwise than it is written. For Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, The good LORD pardon every one
Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, ame siwo tso Efraim, Manase, Isaka kple Zebulon ƒe hlɔ̃wo me va la, dometɔ geɖewo mekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti o ale womenɔ Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖum nyuie ɖe se la nu o. Fia Hezekia do gbe ɖa ɖe wo ta be,
19 that setteth his heart to seek God, the LORD, the God of his fathers, though [he be] not [cleansed] according to the purification of the sanctuary.
“Oo Yehowa, mía fofowo ƒe Mawu, le wò dɔmenyo ta la, tsɔ nu vɔ̃ ke ame siwo le subɔwòm kple woƒe dzi blibo togbɔ be womekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu o hã.”
20 And the LORD hearkened to Hezekiah, and healed the people.
Yehowa se Hezekia ƒe gbedodoɖa eye metsrɔ̃ ameawo o.
21 And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness: and the Levites and the priests praised the LORD day by day, [singing] with loud instruments unto the LORD.
Ale Israelviwo ɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le Yerusalem ŋkeke adre kple dzidzɔ gã. Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Levitɔwo kple nunɔlawo kafua Mawu sesĩe kple hadzidziwo kple gakogoewo gbe sia gbe.
22 And Hezekiah spake comfortably unto all the Levites that were well skilled [in the service] of the LORD. So they did eat throughout the feast for the seven days, offering sacrifices of peace offerings, and making confession to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Fia Hezekia kafu Levitɔwo le woƒe ha viviwo dzidzi ta. Ale ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu yi edzi ŋkeke adre. Wosa akpedavɔwo eye amewo ʋu woƒe nu vɔ̃wo me na Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu la.
23 And the whole congregation took counsel to keep other seven days: and they kept [other] seven days with gladness.
Ameawo gayi vividodo ɖe ŋkekenyui la ŋu dzi eya ta wo katã woɖoe be yewoagayi ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu dzi ŋkeke adre bubu.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah did give to the congregation for offerings a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves.
Fia Hezekia na nyitsu akpe ɖeka kple alẽ akpe adre ameawo eye fiaviŋutsuwo hã na nyitsu fɛ̃ akpe ɖeka kple alẽ akpe ewo. Nunɔla geɖewo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu ɣe ma ɣi.
25 And all the congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.
Yudatɔwo, nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo kple amedzrowo kple ame siwo tso Israelnyigba dzi va la kpɔ dzidzɔ gã aɖe.
26 So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not the like in Jerusalem.
Eva eme alea elabena womegaɖu ŋkekenyui sia tɔgbi kpɔ alea le Yerusalem le Solomo, Fia David ƒe vi ƒe ŋkekewo megbe o.
27 Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy habitation, even unto heaven.
Azɔ la, nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo tsi tsitre, yra ameawo eye Yehowa se woƒe gbedodoɖawo le eƒe gbedoxɔ kɔkɔe la me le dziƒo.
