2 Chronicles 29

1 Hezekiah he became king a son of twenty and five year[s] and twenty and nine year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Abijah [the] daughter of Zechariah.

Naʻe uofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe nima ʻae motuʻa ʻo Hesekaia ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma hiva ʻi Selūsalema. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko ʻApisa ko e ʻofefine ʻo Sakalia.

2 And he did the right in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done David ancestor his.

Pea naʻe fai lelei ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ko ʻene tamai.

3 He in the year first of reigning his in the month first he opened [the] doors of [the] house of Yahweh and he repaired them.

ʻI he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo ʻene pule, ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina, naʻa ne toʻo ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, ʻo ne ngaohi ia ke lelei.

4 And he brought the priests and the Levites and he gathered them to [the] open place of the east.

Pea ne ʻomi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai, ʻo ne tānaki ʻakinautolu ke fakataha ki he hala fakahahake.

5 And he said to them listen to me O Levites now consecrate yourselves and consecrate [the] house of Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your and bring out the impurity from the holy place.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ʻae kau Livai, “Ke mou tokanga kiate au, ko eni mou fakamaʻa ʻakimoutolu, pea fakamaʻa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, pea mou fetuku atu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻuli mei he potu māʻoniʻoni.

6 For they acted unfaithfully fathers our and they did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh God our and they forsook him and they turned faces their away from [the] tabernacle of Yahweh and they gave a back.

He naʻe fai hala ʻetau ngaahi tamai, pea fai ʻaia naʻe kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, pea naʻa nau liʻaki ia, pea naʻe tafoki honau mata mei he fale nofoʻanga ʻo Sihova, pea fulituʻa ki ai.

7 Also they shut [the] doors of the porch and they extinguished the lamps and incense not they made smoke and burnt offering[s] not they offered up in the holy place to [the] God of Israel.

Pea kuo nau tāpuni ʻae ngaahi matapā ʻoe hūʻanga fale fakamalumalu, pea tāmateʻi ʻae ngaahi maama, pea naʻe ʻikai tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala pe ʻatu ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu ʻi he potu māʻoniʻoni ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.

8 And it was [the] wrath of Yahweh towards Judah and Jerusalem and he has made them (into a terror *Q(K)*) into a horror and into a hissing just as you [are] seeing with own eyes your.

Ko ia naʻe tō ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ki Siuta mo Selūsalema, pea naʻa ne tukuange ʻakinautolu ki he mamahi, mo e fakaofoofo, mo e fakaʻiseʻisa, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku mou mamata ai ʻaki homou mata.

9 And there! they have fallen fathers our by the sword and sons our and daughters our and wives our [are] in captivity on this.

Vakai, he kuo tō ʻetau ngaahi tamai ʻi he heletā, pea ʻoku nofo pōpula ʻi he meʻa ni hotau ngaahi foha mo hotau ngaahi ʻofefine mo hotau ngaahi uaifi.

10 Now [is] with heart my to make a covenant to Yahweh [the] God of Israel and it may turn back from us [the] burning of anger his.

Pea ko eni, ʻoku ʻi hoku loto ia ke fai ʻae fuakava kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, koeʻuhi ke tafoki hono houhau lahi meiate kitautolu.

11 O sons my now may not you be negligent for you he has chosen Yahweh to stand before him to serve him and to be of him servants and makers of smoke.

‌ʻE hoku ngaahi foha, ʻoua eni naʻa mou taʻetokanga: he kuo fili ʻakimoutolu ʻe Sihova ke tuʻu ʻi hono ʻao, ke tauhi ia, pea ke mou ngāue kiate ia, pea tutu ʻae meʻa namu kakala.”

12 And they arose the Levites Mahath [the] son of Amasai and Joel [the] son of Azariah of [the] descendants of the Kohathite[s] and of [the] descendants of Merari Kish [the] son of Abdi and Azariah [the] son of Jehallelel and of the Gershonite[s] Joah [the] son of Zimmah and Eden [the] son of Joah.

Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ai ʻae kau Livai, ko Mehati ko e foha ʻo ʻAmasai, mo Soeli ko e foha ʻo ʻAsalia, ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻoe kau Kohate: pea ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Melali, ko Kisi ko e foha ʻo ʻApiti, mo ʻAsalia ko e foha ʻo Sehalili: pea ʻi he kakai Kesoni: ko Soa ko e foha ʻo Sima, mo Iteni ko e foha ʻo Soe:

13 And of [the] descendants of Elizaphan Shimri (and Jeiel *Q(K)*) and of [the] descendants of Asaph Zechariah and Mattaniah.

Pea ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIlisafani: ko Simili, mo Sieli: pea ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAsafi: ko Sakalia, mo Matania:

14 And of [the] descendants of Heman (Jehiel *Q(K)*) and Shimei. And of [the] descendants of Jeduthun Shemaiah and Uzziel.

Pea ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Hemani: ko Sehieli, mo Simi: pea ʻi he ngaahi foha ʻo Situtuni: ko Simaia, mo ʻUsili.

15 And they gathered relatives their and they consecrated themselves and they went according to [the] command of the king by [the] words of Yahweh to cleanse [the] house of Yahweh.

Pea naʻa nau fakakātoa honau ngaahi kāinga, pea fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu, pea haʻu, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae tuʻi, ʻi he folofola ʻa Sihova, ke fakamaʻa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova.

16 And they went the priests to within [the] house of Yahweh to cleanse [it] and they brought out all the uncleanness which they found in [the] temple of Yahweh to [the] court of [the] house of Yahweh and they received [it] the Levites to bring [it] out to [the] wadi of Kidron [the] outside towards.

Pea naʻe hū ʻae kau taulaʻeiki ki he potu ʻi loto ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova, ke fakamaʻa ia, ʻonau fetuku mei ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻuli kotoa pē naʻa nau ʻilo ʻi he faletapu ʻo Sihova ki he lotoʻā ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova. Pea naʻe ʻave ia ʻe he kau Livai, ʻo fetuku ia ki he mamaʻo ki he vaitafe ko Kitiloni.

17 And they began on [day] one of the month first to consecrate and on day eight of the month they came to [the] porch of Yahweh and they consecrated [the] house of Yahweh for days eight and on day six-teen of the month first they finished.

Pea naʻa nau kamata ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina ke fakamaʻa, pea ʻi hono valu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina naʻa nau hoko ki he hūʻanga fale fakamalumalu ʻo Sihova: ko ia naʻa nau fakamaʻa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻi he ʻaho ʻe valu: pea ʻi hono ʻaho ʻe hongofulu ma ono ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina naʻa nau fakaʻosi.

18 And they went within to Hezekiah the king and they said we have cleansed all [the] house of Yahweh [the] altar of the burnt offering and all utensils its and [the] table of the row and all utensils its.

Pea naʻa nau ʻalu ai kia Hesekaia ko e tuʻi, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau fakamaʻa ʻae potu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, mo e feilaulauʻanga ʻoe meʻa tutu mo hono ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻo ia, mo e palepale ʻoe mā ʻoe ʻao, mo hono ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻo ia.

19 And all the utensils which he had rejected the king Ahaz in reign his in unfaithfulness his we have prepared and we have consecrated and there they [are] before [the] altar of Yahweh.

Pea koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ipu kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe liʻaki ʻe he tuʻi ko ʻEhapi ʻi heʻene pule, ʻi heʻene angahala, kuo ʻosi ʻemau teuʻi mo fakatapui, pea vakai, ʻoku nau ʻi he muʻa feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova.”

20 And he rose early Hezekiah the king and he gathered [the] officials of the city and he went up [the] house of Yahweh.

Pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Hesekaia ko e tuʻi, ʻo ne tānaki ke fakataha ʻae kau pule ʻoe kolo, pea ʻalu ia ki he fale ʻo Sihova.

21 And they brought young bulls seven and rams seven and lambs seven and he-goats of goats seven to a sin offering on the kingdom and on the sanctuary and on Judah and he said to [the] descendants of Aaron the priests to offer up on [the] altar of Yahweh.

Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu, mo e sipitangata ʻe fitu, mo e lami ʻe fitu, mo e kosi tangata ʻe fitu, ko e feilaulau ʻi he angahala ʻae puleʻanga, pea maʻae fale nofoʻanga, pea mo Siuta. Pea naʻe fekau ia ki he kau taulaʻeiki ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElone ke ʻatu ia ʻi he funga feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova.

22 And they slaughtered the cattle and they took the priests the blood and they sprinkled [it] the altar towards and they slaughtered the rams and they sprinkled the blood the altar towards and they slaughtered the lambs and they sprinkled the blood the altar towards.

Ko ia naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻae fanga pulu, pea naʻe fakatali ʻae toto ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki, pea nau luluku ʻaki ʻae feilaulauʻanga: pea pehē pe, hili ʻenau tāmateʻi ʻae fanga sipitangata, naʻa nau luluku ʻaki ʻae toto ʻae feilaulauʻanga: pea naʻa nau tāmateʻi ʻae fanga lami foki, pea nau luluku ʻae toto ki he feilaulauʻanga.

23 And they brought near [the] goats of the sin offering before the king and the assembly and they laid hands their on them.

Pea naʻa nau ʻomi kituʻa ʻae fanga kosi tangata ko e feilaulau maʻae angahala ki he ʻao ʻoe tuʻi mo e fakataha; pea naʻa nau hilifaki honau nima ki ai.

24 And they slaughtered them the priests and they made a sin offering blood their the altar towards to make atonement on all Israel for for all Israel he had said the king the burnt offering and the sin offering.

Pea naʻe tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki, pea fai ʻae fakalelei ʻaki ʻa honau toto ʻi he funga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga, ke fai ai ʻae fakalelei koeʻuhi ko ʻIsileli kotoa pē: he naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ke fai ʻae feilaulau tutu mo e feilaulau maʻae angahala maʻa ʻIsileli kotoa pē.

25 And he stationed the Levites [the] house of Yahweh with cymbals with lyres and with harps by [the] command of David and Gad [the] seer of the king and Nathan the prophet for [was] by [the] hand of Yahweh the commandment by [the] hand of prophets his.

Pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu ʻae kau Livai he fale ʻo Sihova mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e ngaahi ūtete, mo e ngaahi haʻape, ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Tevita, pea mo Kata ko e tangata kikite ʻae tuʻi, mo Netane ko e palōfita: he naʻe pehē pe ʻae fekau ʻa Sihova ʻi heʻene kau palōfita.

26 And they stood the Levites with [the] instruments of David and the priests with trumpets.

Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae kau Livai mo e ngaahi meʻa faiva ʻa Tevita, mo e kau taulaʻeiki mo e ngaahi meʻalea.

27 And he said Hezekiah to offer up the burnt offering to the altar and at [the] time [when] it began the burnt offering it began [the] song of Yahweh and the trumpets and on [the] hands of [the] instruments of David [the] king of Israel.

Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Hesekaia ke fai ʻae feilaulau tutu ʻi he funga ʻoe feilaulauʻanga. Pea ʻi he kamata ʻatu ʻae feilaulau tutu, naʻe kamata foki ʻae hiva kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻalea, pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa faiva naʻe tuʻutuʻuni ʻe Tevita ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.

28 And all the assembly [were] bowing down and the song [was] singing and the trumpets ([were] blowing a trumpet *Q(k)*) everything until was complete the burnt offering.

Pea naʻe hū ʻae fakataha kotoa pē, pea hiva ʻae kau hiva, pea fakaongo ʻe he kau ifi meʻalea: pea naʻe fai ai pe ʻae meʻa ni kotoa pē ke ʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae feilaulau tutu.

29 And just as finished to offer up they bowed down the king and all those [who] were found with him and they bowed down.

Pea hili ʻenau fakaʻosi ʻae feilaulau, naʻe punou ʻae tuʻi mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻonau hū.

30 And he said Hezekiah the king and the officials to the Levites to praise Yahweh with [the] words of David and Asaph the seer and they praised to to joy and they bowed low and they bowed down.

Pea naʻe fekau foki ʻe Hesekaia ko e tuʻi mo e houʻeiki ki he kau Livai ke hiva mo fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa Tevita, pea mo ʻAsafi ko e tangata kikite. Pea naʻa nau hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fakafetaʻi ʻi he fiefia, ʻonau punou hifo honau ʻulu ʻo hū.

31 And he answered Hezekiah and he said now you have filled hand your to Yahweh draw near and bring sacrifices and thank-offerings to [the] house of Yahweh and they brought the assembly sacrifices and thank-offerings and every [person] willing of heart burnt offerings.

Pea naʻe tali ʻe Hesekaia ʻo ne pehē, “Ko eni kuo mou fakatapui ʻakimoutolu kia Sihova, mou haʻu ke ofi, pea ʻomi ʻae ngaahi feilaulau mo e feilaulau fakafetaʻi ki he fale ʻo Sihova.” Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he fakataha ʻae ngaahi feilaulau mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakafetaʻi: pea ʻomi ʻekinautolu naʻe loto ʻataʻatāina ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu.

32 And it was [the] number of the burnt offering[s] which they brought the assembly cattle seventy rams one hundred lambs two hundred [were] for a burnt offering to Yahweh all these.

Pea ko hono lau ʻoe ngaahi feilaulau tutu, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ʻe he fakataha lahi, ko e fanga pulu ʻe fitungofulu, ko e sipitangata ʻe teau, mo e lami ʻe uangeau: ko eni kotoa pē ko e feilaulau tutu kia Sihova.

33 And the holy offerings [were] cattle six hundred and sheep three thousand.

Pea ko e meʻa naʻe fakatapui ko e fanga pulu ʻe onongeau mo e sipi ʻe tolu afe,

34 Only the priests they were to fewness and not they were able to skin all the burnt offerings and they helped them relatives their the Levites until was complete the work and until they had consecrated themselves the priests for the Levites [were] upright of heart to consecrate themselves more than the priests.

Pea naʻe tokosiʻi ʻae kau taulaʻeiki, ko ia naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa fai ke fohi ʻae feilaulau tutu kotoa pē: ko ia naʻe tokoni ai ʻakinautolu ʻe honau kāinga ko e kau Livai, ke ʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae ngāue, pea ke ʻoua ke fakamaʻa ʻa hono toe ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki: he naʻe angatonu lahi hake ʻi loto ʻae kau Livai ke fakamaʻa ʻakinautolu ʻi he kau taulaʻeiki.

35 And also burnt offering[s] to abundance with [the] fat of the peace offerings and with the drink offerings of the burnt offering and it was arranged [the] service of [the] house of Yahweh.

Pea naʻe lahi ʻaupito foki ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu, mo e ngako ʻoe ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei, mo e feilaulau inu ʻi he feilaulau tutu kotoa pē. Ko ia naʻe teuteu lelei ʻae ngāue ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova.

36 And he rejoiced Hezekiah and all the people on what he had prepared God for the people for in suddenness it had happened the thing.

Pea naʻe fiefia ʻa Hesekaia, mo e kakai kotoa pē, ko e meʻa ʻi he teuteuʻi ʻe he ʻOtua hono kakai: he naʻe fai fakafokifā pe ʻae meʻa ni.
