< 2 Kings 23 >

1 And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
Ary nanirahan’ ny mpanjaka, ka dia vory tany aminy ny loholon’ ny Joda Jerosalema rehetra.
2 And the king went up to the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.
Dia niakatra ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ny mpanjaka, ary nanaraka azy ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Joda sy ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema mbamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany ary ny vahoaka rehetra, na kely na lehibe; ary novakiny teo anatrehany ny teny rehetra tamin’ ny bokin’ ny fanekena izay hita tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
3 And the king stood by the pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all [his] heart, and all [his] soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book: and all the people stood to the covenant.
Ary ny mpanjaka nitsangana teo amin’ ny fitoeran’ andriana, dia nanao fanekena teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah hanaraka Azy sy hitandrina ny lalàny sy ny teni-vavolombelony ary ny didiny amin’ ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra, hankatò ny tenin’ ny fanekena sy izay voasoratra ao amin’ izany boky izany. Ary ny vahoaka rehetra koa dia mba nanaiky ny fanekena.
4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the Asherah, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Beth-el.
Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy an’ i Hilkia mpisoronabe sy ireo mpisorona manarakaraka ary ny mpiandry varavarana hamoaka ny fanaka rehetra izay natao ho an’ i Bala sy Astarta ary ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra hiala amin’ ny tempolin’ i Jehovah; ka nodorany tany ivelan’ i Jerosalema teny amin’ ny saha amoron’ i Kidrona ireny, ary nentiny ho any Betela ny vovony.
5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
Ary natsahany koa ny mpisorona amin’ ny andriamani-tsi-izy, izay notendren’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda handoro ditin-kazo manitra eny amin’ ny fitoerana avo tany amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda sy tamin’ ny manodidina an’ i Jerosalema, sy izay nandoro ditin-kazo manitra koa ho an’ i Bala, dia ny masoandro, ary ho an’ ny volana sy ny kintana amin’ ny Zodiaka ary ho an’ izay rehetra eny amin’ ny lanitra.
6 And he brought out the Asherah from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the common people.
Ary ny Aseraha navoakany hiala amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah ho any ivelan’ i Jerosalema, ao amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka Kidrona; ary nodorany tao io ka notorotoroiny ho vovoka, ary ny vovony nafafiny teny ambonin’ ny fasam-bahoaka.
7 And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were in the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the Asherah.
Ary noravany ny tranon’ ny olona nanolo-tena hijangajanga ho fanompoan-tsampy izay teo amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia ireo nanenoman’ ny vehivavy lay ho an’ i Astarta.
8 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beer-sheba; and he brake down the high places of the gates that were at the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
Ary nampaka ny mpisorona rehetra avy tamin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda izy, dia nolotoiny ny fitoerana avo, izay nandoroan’ ny mpisorona ditin-kazo manitra, hatrany Geba ka hatrany Beri-sheba ary noravany ny fitoerana avo tao akaikin’ ny vavahady, dia ilay teo anoloan’ ny vavahadin’ i Josoa, komandin’ ny tanàna, sy ilay teo an-kavia raha miditra amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanana.
9 Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat unleavened bread among their brethren.
Fa ny mpisorona tamin’ ny fitoerana avo tsy navela hanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema; nefa nahazo niara-nihinana mofo tsy misy masirasira tamin’ ny rahalahiny ihany izy.
10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
Ary nolotoiny koa Tofeta, izay eo amin’ ny lohasahan’ ny taranak’ i Hinoma, mba tsy hisy hampandeha ny zananilahy na ny zananivavy hamaky ny afo ho an’ i Moloka intsony.
11 And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the precincts; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
Ary ny soavaly izay nohamasinin’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Joda ho an’ ny masoandro ka nataony teo amin’ ny fidirana ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, teo akaikin’ ny efi-tranon’ i Natana-meleka tandapa, izay tao Parvara, dia nesoriny; ary ny kalesin’ ny masoandro nodorany tamin’ ny afo.
12 And the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king break down, and beat [them] down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
Ary ireo alitara teo an-tampon-trano ambony amin’ ny tranon’ i Ahaza, izay nataon’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny alitara izay nataon’ i Manase tao anatin’ ny kianja roa tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, dia noravan’ ny mpanjaka ka notorotoroiny, dia nafafiny tany amin’ ny lohasahan-driaka Kidrona ny vovony.
13 And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.
Ary nolotoin’ ny mpanjaka ireo fitoerana avo izay teo anoloan’ i Jerosalema, teo amin’ ny ankavanan’ ny tendrombohitra nahitan-doza, dia ireo nataon’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ho an’ i Astarta, fa havetavetan’ ny Sidoniana, sy ho an’ i Kemosy, fahavetavetan’ i Moaba, ary ho an’ i Milkoma, fahavetavetan’ ny taranak’ i Amona.
14 And he brake in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and filled their places with the bones of men.
Dia notorotoroiny ny tsangam-baton-tsampy sady nokapainy koa ny Aseraha, ka nofenoiny taolan’ olona ny nitoerany.
15 Moreover the altar that was at Beth-el, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he brake down; and he burned the high place and stamped it small to powder, and burned the Asherah.
Ary ny alitara izay tao Betela sy ny fitoerana avo izay nataon’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata, ilay nampanota ny Isiraely, dia noravany koa; ary nodorany ny fitoerana avo ka notorotoroiny ho vovoka, ary nodorany koa ny Aseraha.
16 And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount; and he sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
Ary nitodika Josia ka nahita ny fasana teny an-tendrombohitra, dia naniraka naka ny taolana tao am-pasana, ary nodorany teo ambonin’ ny alitara ireny nandotoany azy, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah, izay notorin’ ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra.
17 Then he said, What monument is that which I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Beth-el.
Dia hoy izy: Tsangam-baton’ iza itsy hitako itsy? Ary hoy ny mponina tao an-tanana taminy: Fasan’ ilay lehilahin’ Andriamanitra izay avy tany Joda io, dia ilay nitory izao zavatra nataonao tamin’ ny alitara eto Betela izao.
18 And he said, Let him be; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
Ary hoy izy: Aoka itsy; aza misy manetsika ny taolany akory. Dia tsy nokasihiny ny taolany sy ny taolan’ ilay mpaminany avy tany Samaria.
19 And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke [the LORD] to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Beth-el.
Ary ny trano rehetra tamin’ ny fitoerana avo, izay teny amin’ ny tanànan’ i Samaria, izay nataon’ ireo mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ka nahatonga fahatezerana, dia noravan’ i Josia koa ka nataony araka izay rehetra efa navony tany Betela.
20 And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there, upon the altars, and burned men’s bones upon them; and he returned to Jerusalem.
Ary ny mpisorona rehetra izay teo, dia ny mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo, novonoiny teo ambonin’ ny alitara, sady nandoro taolan’ olona teo koa izy, dia niverina nankany Jerosalema.
21 And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto the LORD your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.
Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy ny vahoaka rehetra hoe: Tandremo ny Paskan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ity fanekena ity.
22 Surely there was not kept such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
Fa tsy nisy Paska notandremana toy izany hatramin’ ny andron’ ny mpitsara izay nitsara ny Isiraely, na tamin’ ny andro rehetra nanjakan’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda;
23 but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover kept to the LORD in Jerusalem.
fa tamin’ ny taona fahavalo ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Josia mpanjaka no nitandremany izany Paska izany ho an’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema.
24 Moreover them that had familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
Ary ny nanao azy ho tsindrian-javatra sy ny mpanao hatsarana sy ny terafima sy ny sampy ary ny fahavetavetana rehetra izay hita tany amin’ ny tany Joda sy tany Jerosalema dia nesorin’ i Josia koa, mba hanatanterahana ny tenin’ ny lalàna voasoratra ao amin’ ilay boky hitan’ i Hilkia mpisorona tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
25 And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
Ary tsy nisy mpanjaka tahaka azy teo alohany, izay niverina ho amin’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny fony rehetra sy ny fanahiny rehetra sy ny heriny rehetra araka ny lalàn’ i Mosesy rehetra; sady tsy nisy tahaka azy intsony niseho tao aoriany.
26 Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal.
Nefa Jehovah tsy nitsahatra tamin’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerany mafy, dia ilay fahatezerana nirehitra tamin’ ny Joda noho ny fampahatezerana rehetra izay nampahatezeran’ i Manase Azy.
27 And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and I will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
Dia hoy Jehovah: Hesoriko koa ny Joda hiala eo imasoko, tahaka ny nanesorako ny Isiraely, ary holaviko ity tanàna Jerosalema nofidiko ity sy ny trano izay nolazaiko hoe: Ho ao ny anarako.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ary ny tantaran’ i Josia sisa mbamin’ izay rehetra nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny tantaran’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda va izany?
29 In his days Pharaoh-necoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
Tamin’ ny andro nanjakan’ i Josia no niakaran’ i Farao-neko, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, hankany amoron’ ny ony Eofrata hiady amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria; ary Josia mpanjaka dia nandeha hiady amin’ i Farao. Kanjo nony hitany, dia matiny tao Megido izy.
30 And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s stead.
Ary ny fatiny dia napetraky ny mpanompony tao anaty kalesy ka nentiny niala tao Megido ho any Jerosalema, dia naleviny tao amin’ ny fasany. Ary nalain’ ny vahoaka Joahaza, zanak’ i Josia, dia nohosorany ka nampanjakainy handimby an-drainy.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Telo amby roa-polo taona Joahaza fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Hamotala, zanakavavin’ i Jeremia, avy any Libna.
32 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka izay rehetra nataon’ ny razany.
33 And Pharaoh-necoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Ary nafatotr’ i Farao-neko tao Ribla any amin’ ny tany Hamata izy, mba tsy hanjakany any Jerosalema, sady nampandoaviny sazy talenta volafotsy zato sy talenta volamena iray ny fanjakana.
34 And Pharaoh-necoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim: but he took Jehoahaz away; and he came to Egypt, and died there.
Ary Farao-neko nanendry an’ i Eliakima, zanak’ i Josia, ho mpanjaka hisolo an’ i Josia rainy; ary ny anarany novany ho Joiakima, fa Joahaza kosa dia nentiny ho any Egypta ka maty tany.
35 And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of everyone according to his taxation, to give it unto Pharaoh-necoh.
Ary ny volafotsy sy ny volamena dia nomen’ i Joiakima an’ i Farao; kanefa notombanany avokoa ny olona rehetra araka ny didin’ i Farao, ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia samy nampandoaviny vola araka ny tombany avy, mba homeny an’ i Farao-neko.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Zebidah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
Dimy amby roa-polo taona Joiakima, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary nanjaka iraika ambin’ ny folo taona tany Jerosalema izy. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Zebida, zanakavavin’ i Pedaia, avy any Romaha.
37 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy tahaka izay nataon’ ny razany.
