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.
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. Ha kwatụrụ ebe niile dị elu na ebe ịchụ aja niile dị na Juda, Benjamin, Ifrem na Manase. Mgbe ha lachara ha niile nʼiyi, ndị Izrel niile laghachiri nʼobodo nke aka ha nakwa nʼihe onye ọbụla nwere.
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;
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 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.
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 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.
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, 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.
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, 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.
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, began they the heaps, at the foundation, —and, in the seventh, they finished.
Ha bidoro iwebata ihe ndị a site nʼọnwa nke atọ nʼafọ ruo nʼọnwa nke asaa.
8 And Hezekiah and the rulers came, and saw the heaps, —and blessed Yahweh, 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 Then applied Hezekiah unto 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 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.
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 Then Hezekiah gave word to prepare chambers, in the house of Yahweh, and they prepared them;
Hezekaya nyere iwu ka e edozie ụlọ ịchịkọba ihe nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị ahụ. Ha mekwara otu a.
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;
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, —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.
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 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 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, 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;
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 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:
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 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;
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 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;
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 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.
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 did thus, throughout all Judah, —and he did that which was good and right and faithful, before Yahweh his God.
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 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.
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.
