< 2 Chronicles 31 >

1 Now, when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went forth unto the cities of Judah, and brake in pieces the pillars—and cut down the Sacred Stems—and threw down the high places and the altars, out of all Judah and Benjamin—and throughout Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had made an end, —then all the sons of Israel returned every man to his own possession, unto their own cities.
Esi nu siawo katã wu enu la, Israelvi siwo katã nɔ afi ma la do go yi Yuda ƒe duwo me eye wogbã legbawo, heho aƒeliwo ƒu anyi, wogbã nuxeƒewo kple vɔsamlekpui siwo katã nɔ Yuda, Benyamin, Efraim kple Manase. Esi wotsrɔ̃ nu siawo katã vɔ megbe la, Israelviwo gbugbɔ yi woawo ŋutɔ ƒe duwo me eye woyi ɖanɔ woƒe aƒewo me.
2 And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests, and the Levites, over their courses, every man according to the requirements of his service, both priests and Levites, for ascending-sacrifice and for peace-offerings, —to be in attendance and to give thanks and to offer praise, in the gates of the camps of Yahweh;
Azɔ la, Hezekia ma nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ɖe hatsotsowo me hena nu vɔ̃ vɔsa kple akpedavɔ sasa eye be woasubɔ Yehowa, atsɔ akpedada kple kafukafu nɛ.
3 also the portion of the king out of his own substance, for the ascending-sacrifices, —[even] for the ascending-sacrifices of the morning and of the evening, and the ascending-sacrifices for the sabbaths, and for the new moons and for the appointed feasts, —as written in the law of Yahweh.
Ena vɔsalãwo tso eya ŋutɔ ƒe lãhawo me hena gbe sia gbe ŋdi kple fiẽ ƒe numevɔsawo kple Dzudzɔgbe kple Ɣleti Yeye ƒe ŋkekenyuiwo kple ƒe sia ƒe ƒe ŋkekenyui bubuwo ƒe numevɔsawo, abe ale si Mawu ƒe se la bia tso wo si ene.
4 And he bade the people who were dwelling in Jerusalem give the portion of the priests and the Levites, —to the end they might persevere in the law of Yahweh.
Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, Fia Hezekia na be Yerusalemtɔwo natsɔ woƒe nuwo ƒe ewolia vɛ na nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo ale be magahiã be woawɔ dɔ bubuwo o, ke boŋ woalé fɔ ɖe dɔ siwo Mawu ƒe se la ɖo na wo la ko ŋu vevie.
5 And, as soon as the thing spread abroad, the sons of Israel caused to abound the firstfruit of corn, new wine, and oil, and honey, and all the increase of the field, -yea, the tithe of all—in abundance, brought they in.
Esi sedede sia ɖo ameawo ƒe tome ko la, Israelviwo kɔ dɔme na woƒe kutsetse gbãtɔwo, wain yeye, ami kple anyitsi kple agblemenuku ɖe sia ɖe ƒomevi. Wotsɔ nu sɔgbɔwo vɛ siwo nye nu sia nu ƒe ewolia ƒe ɖeka.
6 And, as for the sons of Israel and Judah who were dwelling in the cities of Judah, even they, a tithe of oxen, and sheep, and a tithe of hallowed things, which had been hallowed unto Yahweh their God, did bring in and pile up—heaps, heaps.
Israelvi kple Yudatɔ siwo nɔ Yuda duwo me la hã tsɔ woƒe lãwo ƒe ewolia ƒe ɖeka kple nu kɔkɔe si wodzra ɖo na Yehowa, woƒe Mawu la ƒe ewolia ƒe ɖeka vɛ eye woli kɔ wo.
7 In the third month, began they the heaps, at the foundation, —and, in the seventh, they finished.
Wodze nu sia wɔwɔ gɔme le ɣleti etɔ̃lia me eye wowu enu le ɣleti adrelia me.
8 And Hezekiah and the rulers came, and saw the heaps, —and blessed Yahweh, and his people Israel.
Esi Hezekia kple eƒe dziɖulawo kpɔ nu siwo woƒo ƒu ɖi la, wokafu Yehowa eye woyra eƒe amewo, Israelviwo.
9 Then applied Hezekiah unto the priests and the Levites, concerning the heaps.
Hezekia bia nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo be, “Afi ka nu gbogbo siawo katã tso?”
10 And Azariah, the chief priest of the house of Zadok, spake unto him, —and said—From the time of beginning to bring in, the heave-offering, into the house of Yahweh—to eat and to be full, there hath still been left, even to this abundance. For, Yahweh, hath blessed his people, and, that which is left, is this great plenty.
nunɔlagã Azaria, tso Zadok ƒe hlɔ̃ me, ɖo eŋu be, “Esiawoe nye nuwo ƒe ewolia ƒe ɖeka! Míele nu ɖum tso nu siawo me kɔsiɖa geɖewo nye esi gake nu gbogbo siawo gasusɔ elabena Yehowa yra eƒe amewo.”
11 Then Hezekiah gave word to prepare chambers, in the house of Yahweh, and they prepared them;
Hezekia ɖe gbe be woatu nudzraɖoƒexɔwo ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me, ale wowɔe nenema.
12 and brought in the heave-offering and the tithe and the hallowed things, faithfully, —and, over them, as chief ruler, was Cononiah the Levite, and Shimei his brother, next;
Tete wowɔ nuteƒe hetsɔ woƒe nudzɔdzɔwo, nu ewoliawo kple nunana si woɖe ɖe aga la vɛ. Konania, Levitɔ, nɔ nu siawo nu eye nɔvia ŋutsu. Simei, nye ame si nye eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ.
13 and Jehiel and Azaziah and Nahath and Asahel and Jerimoth and Jozabad, and Eliel and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, —overseers under the direction of Cononiah and Shemei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the chief ruler of the house of God.
Yehiel, Azazia, Nahat, Asahel, Yerimɔt, Yozabad, Eliel, Ismakia, Mahat kple Benaya nye dɔdzikpɔlawo nɔ Konania kple nɔvia ŋutsu Simei te le Fia Hezekia kple Azaria, Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ dzikpɔla la ƒe ɖoɖo nu.
14 And, Kore, son of Imnah the Levite, the door-keeper on the east, was over the freewill offerings of God, —to give the heave-offering of Yahweh, and the most holy things.
Kore, Levitɔ, Imna ƒe viŋutsu, Ɣedzeƒegbo la nudzɔla nɔ lɔlɔ̃nununana siwo wotsɔ vɛ na Mawu la dzi kpɔm. Enɔ nu siwo wodzɔ na Yehowa la kple nunana siwo ŋu wokɔ la mam.
15 And, under his direction, were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah, Amariah and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in trust to give unto their brethren by courses, as the great so the small;
Eden, Miniamin, Yesua, Semaya, Amaria kple Sekania kpe ɖe eŋu le nuteƒewɔwɔ me le nunɔlawo ƒe duwo me le numama na wo nɔvi nunɔlawo me ɖe woƒe hatsotsowo nu na tsitsiawo kple ɖeviawo siaa.
16 besides registering them by males, from three years old and upward, unto every one that entered into the house of Yahweh, in the need of a day upon its day, —by their service, in their watches, according to their courses:
Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋuti la, woma nu na viŋutsu siwo xɔ ƒe etɔ̃ alo wu nenema, ame siwo ƒe ŋkɔwo menɔ dzidzimegbalẽ la me o, ame siwo dze be woayi ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me be woawɔ woƒe gbe sia gbe dɔdeasiwo le dɔ vovovo siwo woɖo na wo ɖe woƒe hatsotsowo me nu.
17 both the registering of the priests, by their ancestral houses, and the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, —in their watches, in their courses;
Eye woma nuwo na nunɔlawo, ame siwo ŋkɔ woƒe ƒomewo ŋlɔ ɖe dzidzimegbalẽawo me. Nenema kee wowɔ na Levitɔ siwo xɔ ƒe blaeve alo wu, le woƒe dɔdeasiwo kple woƒe hatsotsowo nu.
18 even to the registering of all their little ones, their wives and their sons and their daughters, unto all the convocation, —for, in their trust, they hallowed themselves in holiness;
Ame siwo hã ƒe ŋkɔwo nɔ dzidzimegbalẽawo me la woe nye: ɖevi suewo, srɔ̃nyɔnuwo kple dukɔ blibo la ƒe viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo elabena wowɔ nuteƒe le wo ɖokuiwo ŋu kɔkɔ me.
19 also unto the sons of Aaron the priests in the fields of the pasture land of their cities, in every several city, men who were expressed by name, —to give portions to every male among the priests, and to all registered among the Levites.
Wotia nunɔla ɖeka le du ɖe sia ɖe si me nunɔlawo, Aron ƒe viwo, nɔ la me be wòama nuɖuɖu kple nu bubuwo na nunɔla siwo le nuto me ma kple Levitɔ siwo katã ŋkɔ wode agbalẽ me.
20 And Hezekiah did thus, throughout all Judah, —and he did that which was good and right and faithful, before Yahweh his God.
Ale Fia Hezekia wɔ ɖoɖo ɖe numama ŋu le Yudanyigba blibo la dzi; ewɔ nu si nyo eye wòdze la, le Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la ŋkume.
21 And, in all the work which he began in the service of the house of God—and in the law—and in the commandment, to seek unto his God, with all his heart, he wrought, and prospered.
Edze agbagba vevie be yeana ameawo nabu gbedoxɔ la kple se la eye woanɔ agbe si adze Mawu ŋu. Nu siawo katã dze edzi nɛ nyuie.
