< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and broke the pillars in pieces, cut down the Asherah poles, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, also in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
Yommuu wanni kun hundi xumurametti Israaʼeloonni achi turan gara magaalaawwan Yihuudaa dhaqanii dhagaawwan waaqeffannaa caccabsan; siidaawwan Aasheeraa ni kukkutan. Iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraa fi iddoowwan aarsaa kanneen Yihuudaa, Beniyaam, Efreemii fi Minaasee keessa turan hunda ni balleessan. Israaʼeloonnis erga waan kana hunda balleessanii booddee gara magaalaawwanii fi qabeenya isaaniitti deebiʼan.
2 Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the LORD’s camp.
Hisqiyaasis tokkoo tokkoo isaanii akka isaan akkuma hojii lubummaa isaaniitti yookaan akkuma hojii Lewwummaa isaaniitti aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeessaniif, akka isaan karra iddoo Waaqayyo jiraatuu duratti tajaajilaniif, akka isaan galata galchanii fi akka isaan faarfannaa galataa faarfataniif lubootaa fi Lewwota garee gareedhaan ramade.
3 He also appointed the king’s portion of his possessions for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the LORD’s law.
Mootichis akkuma Seera Waaqayyoo keessatti barreeffame sanatti, aarsaa gubamu kan ganamaa fi galgalaa akkasumas aarsaa gubamu kan Sanbatootaa, Ayyaana Baatiiwwan Haaraa fi guyyaa ayyaana murteeffameetiif qabeenya ofii isaa irraa ni kenne.
4 Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the LORD’s law.
Innis akka luboonnii fi Lewwonni Seera Waaqayyootiif of kennuu dandaʼaniif namoota Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan akka isaan qooda jaraaf malu kennaniif ni ajaje.
5 As soon as the commandment went out, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, oil, honey, and of all the increase of the field; and they brought in the tithe of all things abundantly.
Akkuma ajajni sun baʼeenis Israaʼeloonni mataa midhaan isaanii kan jalqabaa irraa, daadhii wayinii haaraa irraa, zayitii fi damma irraa akkasumas waan lafa qotiisaa irraa argamu hunda irraa arjummaadhaan kennan. Waan hunda irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko guddisanii ni fidan.
6 The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to the LORD their God, and laid them in heaps.
Namoonni Israaʼelii fi Yihuudaa warri magaalaawwan Yihuudaa keessa jiraatanis loonii fi bushaayee isaanii irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko, akkasumas waan Waaqayyo Waaqa isaaniitiif qulqulleeffame irraa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko ni fidan; ni tuulanis.
7 In the third month, they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
Isaanis hojii kana jiʼa sadaffaatti jalqabanii jiʼa torbaffaatti fixan.
8 When Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD and his people Israel.
Hisqiyaasii fi qondaaltonni isaa yommuu dhufanii tuullaawwan sana arganitti Waaqayyoon ni galateeffatan; saba isaa Israaʼelinis ni eebbisan.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites about the heaps.
Hisqiyaasis waaʼee tuullaa sanaa lubootaa fi Lewwota gaafate;
10 Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, “Since people began to bring the offerings into the LORD’s house, we have eaten and had enough, and have plenty left over, for the LORD has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.”
maatii Zaadoq keessaa Azaariyaa lubichi hangafni akkana jedhee deebise; “Erga namoonni kennaa isaanii gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti fidduu jalqabanii as nu nyaata gaʼaa fi irraa hafaa arganneerra; sababii Waaqayyo saba isaa eebbiseef hambaan akka malee guddaan kun hafeera.”
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in the LORD’s house, and they prepared them.
Hisqiyaasis akka isaan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti mankuusaalee qopheessan ajaje; isaanis ni qopheessan.
12 They brought in the offerings, the tithes, and the dedicated things faithfully. Conaniah the Levite was ruler over them, and Shimei his brother was second.
Isaanis ergasii buusii, kennaa harka kudhan keessaa harka tokkoo fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman amanamummaadhaan fidan. Wantoota kanneen irrattis Konaneyaan Lewwichi itti gaafatamaa ture; obboleessi isaa Shimeʼiin immoo sadarkaadhaan itti aanaa isaa ture.
13 Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king and Azariah the ruler of God’s house.
Yehiiʼeel, Azaziyaa, Nahaati, Asaaheel, Yeriimooti, Yoozaabaad, Eliiʼeel, Yismakiyaa, Mahatii fi Benaayaa, Konaneyaa fi obboleessa isaa Shimeʼii jalatti toʼattoota taʼanii Hisqiyaas mootichaa fi Azaariyaa itti gaafatamaa mana qulqullummaa Waaqaatiin muudaman.
14 Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east gate, was over the free will offerings of God, to distribute the LORD’s offerings and the most holy things.
Qooraahi ilmi Yimnaa Lewwichi, eegduun Karra Baʼaa sun kennaa fedhiidhaan Waaqaaf kenname irratti, akkasumas buusii Waaqayyoof godhamee fi kennaawwan qulqulleeffaman qooduu irratti itti gaafatamummaa qaba ture.
15 Under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by divisions, to the great as well as to the small;
Eeden, Miiniyaamiin, Yeeshuuʼaan, Shemaaʼiyaan, Amariyaa fi Shekaaniyaan magaalaawwan lubootaa keessatti luboota michoota isaaniitiif guddaa fi xinnaa akkuma tokkotti garee garee isaaniitti isaaniif qooduudhaan amanamummaadhaan isa gargaaran.
16 in addition to those who were listed by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the LORD’s house, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions;
Kana malees dhiirota umuriin isaanii waggaa sadii fi sanaa ol taʼe kanneen maqaan isaanii galmee hidda dhalootaa keessa jiru warra akkuma itti gaafatamummaa isaanii fi ramaddii isaaniitti qooda hojii isaanii kan guyyaa guyyaa hojjetamu hojjechuuf mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo seenuu dandaʼan hundaaf akkasuma ni qoodan.
17 and those who were listed by genealogy of the priests by their fathers’ houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
Luboota maatii isaaniitiin galmee hidda dhalootaa keessatti galmeeffamanii fi Lewwota umuriin isaanii waggaa digdamaa fi sanaa ol taʼeefis akkuma itti gaafatamummaa fi qooda hojii isaaniitti ni ramadaniif.
18 and those who were listed by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
Luboonni kunneen ijoollee isaanii xixinnoo, niitota isaanii, ilmaan isaaniitii fi intallan isaanii kanneen waldaa guutuu keessa jiran hunda wajjin ni galmeeffaman; isaan of qulqulleessuudhaan amanamoo turaniitii.
19 Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the pasture lands of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name to give portions to all the males amongst the priests and to all who were listed by genealogy amongst the Levites.
Luboota sanyiiwwan Aroon kanneen lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaawwan isaanii yookaan magaalaawwan biraa keessa jiraataniif, dhiirota garee isaanii kanneen galmee hidda dhaloota Lewwotaa keessatti galmeeffaman hundaaf akka qoodaniif namoonni filatamanii turan.
20 Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he did that which was good, right, and faithful before the LORD his God.
Hisqiyaas waan kana guutummaa Yihuudaa keessatti ni hojjete; innis waan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa isaa duratti gaarii, qajeelaa fi amanamaa taʼe ni hojjete.
21 In every work that he began in the service of God’s house, in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart and prospered.
Innis mana qulqullummaa Waaqaa keessa hojjechuunis taʼu, seeraa fi ajajawwaniif ajajamuudhaan waan hojjete hunda keessatti Waaqa isaa barbaaduudhaaf garaa isaa guutuudhaan ni hojjete; kanaafuu inni ni milkaaʼe.
