< 2 Kings 23 >
1 So the king sent messengers who gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
Isu a nangibaon ti ari kadagiti mensahero a nakiummong kenkuana, amin a panglakayen iti Juda ken iti Jerusalem.
2 Then the king went up to the house of Yahweh, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, prophets, and all the people, from small to great. He then read in their hearing all the words of the book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of Yahweh.
Ket simmang-at ti ari iti balay ni Yahweh, ken kimmuyog kenkuana dagiti amin a tattao ti Juda ken dagiti agnanaed iti Jerusalem, dagiti papadi, dagiti profeta ken dagiti amin a tattao, manipud kadagiti napanglaw agingga kadagiti nabaknang. Ket kabayatan a dumdumngegda, binasana dagiti amin a sasao ti libro ti tulag a nasarakan iti balay ni Yahweh.
3 The king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before Yahweh, to walk after Yahweh and to keep his commandments, his regulations, and his statutes, with all his heart and all his soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book. So all the people agreed to stand by the covenant.
Nagtakder ti ari iti abay ti adigi ket nakitulag kenni Yahweh, a magna iti pagayatan ni Yahweh, ken surotenna iti amin a puso ken kararuana dagiti bilbilinna, dagiti pammaneknekna iti tulagna ken dagiti pagannurotanna, tapno patalgedan daytoy a tulag a naisurat iti daytoy a libro. Isu nga immannamong dagiti amin a tattao nga agtungpal iti tulag.
4 The king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, the priests under him, and the gatekeepers to bring out of the temple of Yahweh all the vessels that were made for Baal and Asherah, and for all the stars of heaven. He burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields in the Kidron Valley and carried their ashes to Bethel.
Binilin ti ari ni Hilkias a kangatoan a padi, dagiti padi nga adda iti babaenna ken dagiti agbabantay kadagiti ruangan, nga irruarda manipud iti templo ni Yahweh dagiti amin a pagkargaan a naaramid a maipaay kada Baal, Asera ken kadagiti amin a bituen iti langit. Pinuoranna dagitoy iti ruar ti Jerusalem kadagiti taltalon ti Tanap ti Kidron ket impanna dagiti dapuda idiay Betel.
5 He got rid of the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Judah had chosen to burn incense at the high places in the cities of Judah and in the places around Jerusalem—those who burned incense to Baal, to the sun and the moon, to the planets, and to all the stars of heaven.
Inikkatna dagiti papadi nga agdaydayaw kadagiti didiosen a pinili dagiti ari ti Juda a mangipuor iti insenso kadagiti altar kadagiti siudad ti Juda ken kadagiti lugar nga adda iti aglawlaw ti Jerusalem—dagiti nangipuor iti insenso kenni Baal, iti init ken bulan, kadagiti planeta ken kadagiti amin a bituen iti langit.
6 He brought out the Asherah pole from the temple of Yahweh, outside Jerusalem to the Kidron Valley and burned it there. He beat it to dust and threw that dust onto the graves of the common people.
Inruarna ti imahen ni Asera manipud iti templo ni Yahweh, iti ruar ti Jerusalem ket impanna iti Tanap ti Kidron ket pinuoranna sadiay. Pinagdapona daytoy ket imbellengna ti dapo kadagiti tanem dagiti kadawyan a tattao.
7 He cleared out the rooms of the cultic prostitutes who were in the temple of Yahweh, where the women wove garments for Asherah.
Inruarna dagiti adda kadagiti siled dagiti balangkantis a lallaki nga adda iti templo ni Yahweh, iti siled a pagab-abelan dagiti babbai kadagiti pagan-anay a maipaay kenni Asera.
8 Josiah brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba. He destroyed the high places at the gates that were at the entrance to the gate of Joshua (the city governor), on the left side of the city gate.
Inruar amin ni Josias dagiti papadi kadagiti siudad ti Juda ket rinugitanna dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan a nangipuoran dagiti papadi iti insenso, manipud Geba agingga idiay Beerseba. Dinadaelna dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan nga adda kadagiti ruangan, dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan nga adda iti pagserkan agingga iti Ruangan ni Josue, nga impatakder ti gobernador ti siudad a managan Josue. Dagitoy a disso a pagdaydayawan ket adda iti makannigid ti ruangan ti siudad no sumrek ti maysa a tao iti siudad.
9 Although the priests of those high places were not allowed to serve at the altar of Yahweh in Jerusalem, they ate unleavened bread among their brothers.
Uray no dagiti papadi dagidiay a disso a pagdaydayawan ket saan a mapalubosan nga agserbi iti altar ni Yahweh idiay Jerusalem, mapalubusanda a mangan iti tinapay nga awan lebadurana kas kadagiti kakabsatda a papadi.
10 Josiah defiled Topheth, which is in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, so that no one might cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire as a sacrifice to Molech.
Rinugitan met ni Josias ti Tofet nga adda iti tanap ti Ben Hinnom, tapno awan ti uray maysa a mangidaton iti anakna kas daton a mapuoran iti apuy a maipaay kenni Molec.
11 He took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun. They had been in an area at the entrance to the temple of Yahweh, near the room of Nathan-Melek, the chamberlain. Josiah burned the chariots of the sun.
Innalana dagiti kabalio nga inted dagiti ari ti Juda iti init. Addada iti maysa a disso idiay pagserkan ti templo ni Yahweh, iti asideg ti siled ni Natan Melek a mangidadaulo kadagiti agserserbi iti ari. Pinuoran ni Josias dagiti karwahe ti init.
12 Josiah the king destroyed the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars that Manasseh had made in the two courts of the temple of Yahweh. Josiah smashed them into pieces and threw them into the Kidron Valley.
Dinadael ni Josias nga ari dagiti altar nga adda iti bubong iti akin ngato a siled ni Ahaz nga inaramid dagiti ari ti Juda, ken dagiti altar nga inaramid ni Manases iti dua a paraangan ti templo ni Yahweh. Binurak dagitoy ni Josias ket imbellengna iti Tanap ti Kidron.
13 The king ruined the high places east of Jerusalem, south of the mount of corruption that Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth, the detestable idol of the Sidonians; for Chemosh, the detestable idol of Moab; and for Molech, the detestable idol of the people of Ammon.
Rinugitan ni Josias dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan nga adda iti daya ti Jerusalem, abagatan ti Bantay ti Pannakadadael nga impatakder ni Solomon nga ari ti Israel a maipaay kenni Astoret, ti makarimon a didiosen dagiti taga-Sidon, maipaay kenni Kemos, ti makarimon a didiosen dagiti taga-Moab; ken maipaay kenni Milcom, ti makarimon a didiosen dagiti tattao ti Ammon.
14 He broke the stone pillars into pieces and cut down the Asherah poles and he filled those places with the bones of human beings.
Binurak ni Ari Josias dagiti nasagradoan nga adigi a bato, intumbana dagiti imahen ni Asera ken ginaburanna iti tultulang ti tao dagiti nakaipatakderanna.
15 Josiah also completely destroyed the altar that was at Bethel and the high place that Jeroboam son of Nebat (the one who made Israel to sin) had constructed. He also burned that altar and the high place and beat it to dust. He also burned the Asherah pole.
Rinebba met ni Josias ti altar nga adda idiay Betel ken ti disso a pagdaydayawan nga impatakder ni Jeroboam nga anak ni Nebat, ti nangisungsong iti Israel nga agbasol. Pinuoranna ti altar agingga a dimmapo; pinuoranna met ti imahen ni Asera.
16 As Josiah looked over the area, he noticed the graves that were on the hillside. He sent men to take the bones from the graves; then he burned them on the altar, which defiled it. This was according to the word of Yahweh which the man of God had spoken, the man who spoke of these things beforehand.
Kabayatan a kitkitaen ni Josias ti disso, nadlawna dagiti tanem nga adda iti turod. Nangibaon isuna kadagiti lallaki a mangala kadagiti tultulang manipud kadagiti tanem; ket pinuoranna dagitoy iti rabaw ti altar nga isu ti nangrugit iti daytoy. Daytoy ket segun iti sao ni Yahweh nga imbaga ti tao ti Dios, ti tao a nangibaga kadagitoy a banbanag idi.
17 Then he said, “What monument is that I see?” The men of the city told him, “That is the grave of the man of God who came from Judah and spoke about these things that you have just done against the altar of Bethel.”
Ket kinunana, “Ania a munomento dayta makitkitak?” Imbaga kenkuana dagiti lallaki iti siudad, “Dayta ti tanem ti tao ti Dios a naggapu idiay Juda ken nangibaga kadagitoy a banbanag a kaar-aramidmo laeng maibusor iti altar ti Betel.”
18 So Josiah said, “Let it alone. No one should move his bones.” So they let his bones alone, along with the bones of the prophet who had come from Samaria.
Isu a kinuna ni Josias, “Bay-anyo dayta. Awan ti siasinoman a mangiyakar kadagiti tulangna.” Isu a binaybay-anda dagiti tulangna a kadua dagiti tultulang ti profeta a naggapu idiay Samaria.
19 Then Josiah removed all the houses on the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made, and that provoked Yahweh to anger. He did to them exactly what had been done at Bethel.
Amin dagiti templo ken dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan nga adda kadagiti siudad ti Samaria, nga inaramid dagiti ari ti Israel a nangpapungtot kenni Yahweh— innala ni Josias dagitoy. Inaramidna kadagitoy ti isu met laeng a naaramid idiay Betel.
20 He slaughtered all the priests of the high places on the altars and he burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
Pinatayna pay dagiti amin a papadi dagiti disso a pagdaydayawan kadagiti rabaw dagiti altar sadiay ken nagpuor kadagiti tultulang ti tao iti rabaw dagiti altar. Kalpasanna, nagsubli isuna idiay Jerusalem.
21 Then the king commanded all the people, saying, “Keep the Passover to Yahweh your God, as it is written in this Book of the Covenant.”
Kalpasanna, binilin ti ari dagiti amin a tattao, kinunana, “Rambakanyo ti Fiesta ti Ilalabas para kenni Yahweh a Diosyo, kas naisurat iti daytoy a libro ti tulag.”
22 Such a Passover celebration had never been held from the days of the judges who ruled Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel or Judah.
Awan pay ti narambakan a Fiesta ti Ilalabas manipud kadagiti al-aldaw dagiti uk-ukom a nagturay iti Israel, wenno kadagiti amin nga al-aldaw dagiti ari iti Israel wenno Juda.
23 But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah this Passover of Yahweh was celebrated in Jerusalem.
Nupay kasta, daytoy a Fiesta ti Ilalabas ket pudno a narambakan iti maikasangapulo ket walo a tawen ni Ari Josias; daytoy ket para kenni Yahweh idiay Jerusalem.
24 Josiah also banished those who talked with the dead or with spirits. He also banished the fetishes, the idols, and all the disgusting things that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, so as to confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had found in the house of Yahweh.
Pinukaw met ni Josias dagidiay makisarsarita iti natay wenno kadagiti espiritu. Pinukawna met dagiti mammadles, dagiti didiosen ken amin dagiti makarimon a banbanag a makita iti daga ti Judah ken iti Jerusalem, ket tapno mapatalgedan dagiti sasao ti linteg a naisurat iti libro a nasarakan ni Hilkias a padi iti balay ni Yahweh.
25 Before Josiah, there had been no king like him, who turned to Yahweh with all his heart, all his soul, and all his might, who followed all the law of Moses. Nor did any king like Josiah arise after him.
Sakbay kenni Josias, awan pay ti ari a kas kenkuana a nagserbi kenni Yahweh iti amin a pusona, amin a kararuana, amin a pigsana, a nangtungpal kadagiti amin a linteg ni Moises. Wenno awan ti ari a kas kenni Josias ti nagturay kalpasan kenkuana.
26 Nevertheless, Yahweh did not turn away from the burning of his fierce anger, which burned against Judah because of all that Manasseh had done to provoke him to anger.
Nupay kasta, saan a naikkat ti nakaro a pungtot ni Yahweh, a napasgedan maibusor iti Juda para kadagiti amin a pagano a panagdaydayaw nga inaramid ni Manases a nangpapungtot kenkuana.
27 So Yahweh said, “I will also remove Judah out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and I will throw away this city that I have chosen, Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, 'My name will be there.'”
Isu a kinuna ni Yahweh, “Ikkatekto met ti Juda iti imatangko, a kas iti panangikkatko iti Israel, ken ibellengkonto daytoy a siudad a pinilik, ti Jerusalem, ken ti balay a kinunak nga, 'Addanto sadiay ti naganko.'”
28 As for the other matters concerning Josiah, everything that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
No maipanggep met kadagiti dadduma a banbanag maipapan kenni Josias, amin a banbanag nga inaramidna, saan kadi a naisurat dagitoy iti Libro dagiti Pakasaritaan dagiti Ari ti Juda?
29 In his days, Pharaoh Necho, king of Egypt, went to fight against the king of Assyria at the Euphrates River. King Josiah went to meet Necho in battle, and Necho killed him at Megiddo.
Kadagiti al-aldawna, napan ni Faraon Neco nga ari ti Egipto tapno gubatenna ti ari ti Asiria idiay Karayan Eufrates. Napan sinabat ni Ari Josias ni Neco iti gubatan, ket pinatay isuna ni Neco idiay Megiddo.
30 Josiah's servants carried him dead in a chariot from Megiddo, brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own grave. Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in his father's place.
Inlugan dagiti adipen ni Josias ti bangkayna iti karwahe manipud Meggido ket impanda idiay Jerusalem, ket intabonda iti bukodna a tanem. Ket innala dagiti tattao iti dayta a daga ni Joacaz nga anakna, pinulotanda isuna ket pinagbalinda nga ari a kasukat ti amana.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hamutal; she was the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Duapulo ket tallo ti tawen ni Joacaz idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay, ket nagturay isuna iti tallo a bulan idiay Jerusalem. Hamutal ti nagan ti inana, anak a babai isuna ni Jeremias a taga-Libna.
32 Jehoahaz did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, like everything that his ancestors had done.
Inaramid ni Joacaz ti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh, kas kadagiti amin nga inaramid dagiti kapuonanna.
33 Pharaoh Necho put him in chains at Riblah in the land of Hamath, so that he might not reign in Jerusalem. Then Necho fined Judah one hundred talents of silver and one talent of gold.
Inkawar isuna ni Faraon Neco idiay Ribla iti daga ni Hamat tapno saan isuna a makapagturay idiay Jerusalem. Ket minulta ni Neco ti Juda iti sangagasut a talento a pirak ken maysa talento a balitok.
34 Pharaoh Necho made Eliakim son of Josiah king in the place of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. But he took Jehoahaz away to Egypt, and Jehoahaz died there.
Pinagbalin ni Faraon Neco nga ari ni Eliakim nga anak ni Josias, kas kasukat ni Josias nga amana, ken sinukatanna ti naganna iti Jehoyakim. Ngem impanna ni Joacaz idiay Egipto, ket sadiay a natay ni Joacaz.
35 Jehoiakim paid the silver and gold to Pharaoh. In order to meet the demand of Pharaoh, Jehoikim taxed the land and he forced each man among the people of the land to pay him the silver and gold according to their assessments.
Nagbayad ni Jehoyakim iti pirak ken balitok iti Faraon. Pinagbuisna dagiti tattao tapno mabayadan ti kuarta, tapno matungpalna ti bilin ti Faraon. Pinilitna ti tunggal maysa kadagiti tattao iti daga nga agbayad iti pirak ken balitok, tapno maited daytoy kenni Faraon Neco.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zebidah; she was the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
Duapulo ket lima ti tawen ni Jehoyakim idi nangrugi isuna nga agturay, ken sangapulo ket maysa a tawen a nagturay isuna idiay Jerusalem. Zebida ti nagan ti inana, nga anak ni Pedaias a taga-Ruma.
37 Jehoiakim did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, just as his ancestors had done.
Inaramid ni Jehoyakim ti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh kas kadagiti amin a banbanag nga inaramid dagiti kapuonanna.
