2 Kings 23
1 And the king sendeth, and they gather unto him all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem,
Eka ruoth noluongo jodongo duto mag Juda kod Jerusalem.
2 and the king goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and every man of Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, from small unto great, and he readeth in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that is found in the house of Jehovah.
Nodhi nyaka e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ka en gi jo-Juda, jo-Jerusalem, jodolo, jonabi kaachiel gi ji duto momewo kod ma jochan. Nosomonegi weche duto mane ondiki e Kitabu mar Singruok, mane osenwangʼ e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ka giwinjo.
3 And the king standeth by the pillar, and maketh the covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep His commands, and His testimonies, and His statutes, with all the heart, and with all the soul, to establish the words of this covenant that are written on this book, and all the people stand in the covenant.
Ruoth nochungʼ e bath siro kendo noketo winjruok mane oselal obedo kare e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kosingore ni enoluw Jehova Nyasaye kendo norit chikene gi wechene kod buchene gi chunye duto, mondo omi oritgo weche mag singruok mondiki e kitabuni. Omiyo ji duto noyie gi singruogno.
4 And the king commandeth Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring out from the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that are made for Baal, and for the shrine, and for all the host of the heavens, and he burneth them at the outside of Jerusalem, in the fields of Kidron, and hath borne their ashes to Beth-El.
Ruoth nogolo chik ne Hilkia jadolo maduongʼ, gi jodolo maluwe kod jorit dhoot mondo ogol oko gik moko duto mopa milamogo Baal gi siro mar Ashera kod kit gik moko manie kor polo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ne owangʼogi e bath Jerusalem e paw aora Kidron mi otero buchgi Bethel.
5 And he hath caused to cease the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Judah have appointed, (and they make perfume in high places, in cities of Judah and suburbs of Jerusalem, ) and those making perfume to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of the heavens.
Ne oriembo jodolo mag nyiseche manono mane ruodhi mag Juda oketo mondo owangʼ ubani kuonde motingʼore gi malo mag miech Juda kod mago molworo Jerusalem kendo noriemb joma ne wangʼo ubani ne Baal, gi chiengʼ, dwe kod sulwe.
6 And he bringeth out the shrine from the house of Jehovah to the outside of Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burneth it at the brook Kidron, and beateth it small to dust, and casteth its dust on the grave of the sons of the people.
Ne ogolo siro mar Ashera e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye mi otere e bath Jerusalem e holo mar aora Kidron kendo nowangʼe kanyo. Norege molokore buru mi okiro burugo ewi liete joma odhier.
7 And he breaketh down the houses of the whoremongers that [are] in the house of Jehovah, where the women are weaving houses for the shrine.
Bende nomuko ut jochode machwo mane ni e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ma en kama mon ne chweyoe pasia mag Ashera.
8 And he bringeth in all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defileth the high places where the priests have made perfume, from Geba unto Beer-Sheba, and hath broken down the high places of the gates that [are] at the opening of the gate of Joshua, head of the city, that [is] on a man's left hand at the gate of the city;
Josia nokelo jodolo duto moa e miech Juda kendo noketho kuonde motingʼore gi malo mane jodologo wangʼoe ubani chakre Geba nyaka Bersheba. Ne omuko gik mochwe mag lemo e dhorangeye kaachiel gi mago mane ni e dhoranga Joshua, jatend dala maduongʼ, mane nitie e bat koracham kidonjo e dala.
9 only, the priests of the high places come not up unto the altar of Jehovah in Jerusalem, but they have eaten unleavened things in the midst of their brethren.
Kata obedo ni jodolo mag kuonde lemo motingʼore gi malo ne ok ti e kendo mar misango mar Jehova Nyasaye man Jerusalem, to ne oyienegi mana chamo makati ma ok oketie thowi gi jodolo wetegi mamoko.
10 And he hath defiled Topheth, that [is] in the valley of the son of Hinnom, so that no man doth cause his son and his daughter to pass over through fire to Molech.
Ne oketho Tofeth mane ni e holo man Ben Hinom, mondo omi kik ngʼato ne ti kode kuom timo misango mar wuode kata nyare e mach ne Molek.
11 And he causeth to cease the horses that the kings of Judah have given to the sun from the entering in of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-Melech the eunuch, that [is] in the suburbs, and the chariots of the sun he hath burnt with fire.
Nogolo kido mar farese mane ruodhi mag Juda oseketone wangʼ chiengʼ e dhoranga hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Ne gin e laru mantie machiegni gi od jatelo ma nyinge Nathan-Melek. Bangʼ mano Josia nowangʼo geche mane itiyogo kuom lamo wangʼ chiengʼ.
12 And the altars that [are] on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, that the kings of Judah made, and the altars that Manasseh made in the two courts of the house of Jehovah, hath the king broken down, and removeth thence, and hath cast their dust unto the brook Kidron.
Nomuko kende mag misango mane ruodhi mag Juda ogero ewi tat od Ahaz, bende nomuko kende mag misango mane Manase ogero e laru ariyo mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye. Nogologi kanyo, motoyogi matindo tindo kendo opuko ngʼinjogo e holo mar Kidron.
13 And the high places that [are] on the front of Jerusalem, that [are] on the right of the mount of corruption, that Solomon king of Israel had built to Ashtoreth abomination of the Zidonians, and Chemosh abomination of Moab, and to Milcom abomination of the sons of Ammon, hath the king defiled.
Ruoth nomuko kuonde motingʼore gi malo mane ni yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jerusalem koma ochomo yo milambo mar Got Kethruok, mane Solomon ruodh Israel ogero ne Ashtoreth, nyasach makwero mar jo-Sidon, gi Kemosh nyasach jo-Moab kod Molek nyasaye manono mar jo-Amon.
14 And he hath broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cutteth down the shrines, and filleth their place with bones of men;
Josia notoyo kite milamo kendo ongʼado siro mar Ashera mi oumo kuondego gi choke ji.
15 and also the altar that [is] in Beth-El, the high place that Jeroboam son of Nebat made, by which he made Israel sin, both that altar and the high place he hath broken down, and doth burn the high place — he hath beat it small to dust, and hath burnt the shrine.
Kata mana kendo mar misango man Bethel, ma en kar lemo motingʼore gi malo mane olosgi Jeroboam wuod Nebat, mane omiyo Israel otimo richo bende nomuko. Ne owangʼo kama otingʼore gi malono mi olokore buru bende nowangʼo siro mar Ashera.
16 And Josiah turneth, and seeth the graves that [are] there in the mount, and sendeth and taketh the bones out of the graves, and burneth [them] on the altar, and defileth it, according to the word of Jehovah that the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
Bangʼ mano Josia nongʼiyo koni gi koni kendo kane oneno liete mane ni e kor godno, nogolo chik mondo ogol choke e lietego kendo owangʼ-gi e kendo mar misango kikethego kaluwore gi wach Jehova Nyasaye mane ngʼat Nyasaye okoro chon.
17 And he saith, 'What [is] this sign that I see?' and the men of the city say unto him, 'The grave of the man of God who hath come from Judah, and proclaimeth these things that thou hast done concerning the altar of Beth-El.'
Ruoth nopenjo niya, “En kidi mane manie dho liel maneno cha?” Jo-dala maduongʼno nodwoke niya, “Onyiso kar liend ngʼat Nyasaye mane oa Juda mane okoro gik mane itimo e kendo mar misango man Bethel.”
18 And he saith, 'Let him alone, let no man touch his bones;' and they let his bones escape, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
Ne owacho niya, “Weyeuru, kendo kik ngʼato mul chokene.” Eka ne giweyo chokene to gi mag janabi mane oa Samaria.
19 And also all the houses of the high places that [are] in the cities of Samaria, that the kings of Israel made to provoke to anger, hath Josiah turned aside, and doth to them according to all the deeds that he did in Beth-El.
Josia nomuko kendo oketho kuonde duto motingʼore gi malo mitimoe misengini mane ruodhi mag Israel ogero e miech Samaria mane omiyo Jehova Nyasaye mirima mana kaka notimo Bethel.
20 And he slayeth all the priests of the high places who [are] there by the altars, and burneth the bones of man upon them, and turneth back to Jerusalem.
Josia nonego jodolo duto mag nyiseche milamo kuonde motingʼore gi malo mowangʼogi e kende mag misengini. Bangʼ mano nodok Jerusalem.
21 And the king commandeth the whole of the people, saying, 'Make ye a passover to Jehovah your God, as it is written on this book of the covenant.'
Ruoth nogolo chik ni ji duto kama: “Losuru chokruok mar Pasaka ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, mana kaka ondiki e Kitap Singruokni.”
22 Surely there hath not been made like this passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, even all the days of the kings of Israel, and of the kings of Judah;
Koa e ndalo mag jongʼad bura mane otelo ne Israel, kata e ndalo duto mag ruodhi mag Israel gi Juda, pok ne otim chokruok mar Pasaka ma kama.
23 but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, hath this passover been made to Jehovah in Jerusalem.
To e higa mar apar gaboro mar ruoth Josia, Pasaka machalo kama notimne Jehova Nyasaye e Jerusalem.
24 And also, those having familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah, and in Jerusalem, hath Josiah put away, in order to establish the words of the law that are written on the book that Hilkiah the priest hath found in the house of Jehovah.
Bende Josia notieko jomeny, jo-nyakalondo, nyiseche manono mag udi gi kido milamo kaachiel gi gik moko duto mamono mane oyud Juda kod Jerusalem. Ma ne otimo mondo ochop chik mondiki e kitabu mane Hilkia jadolo ofwenyo e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.
25 And like him there hath not been before him a king who turned back unto Jehovah with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses, and after him there hath none risen like him.
Onge ruoth moro kata achiel mane odwogo ir Jehova Nyasaye kaluwore gi chike duto mag Musa gi chunye duto gi ngimane duto kod tekone duto machalo gi Josia.
26 Only, Jehovah hath not turned back from the fierceness of His great anger with which His anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh provoked him,
Kata Kamano, Jehova Nyasaye ne ok oweyo mirimbe mager, mane liel kochomo Juda nikech mago duto mane Manase otimo komiyo mirimbe jimbore.
27 and Jehovah saith, 'Also Judah I turn aside from my presence, as I turned Israel aside, and I have rejected this city that I have chosen — Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, My name is there.'
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Abiro riembo jo-Juda e nyima mana kaka ne ariembo jo-Israel kendo abiro kwedo Jerusalem dala maduongʼ mane ayiero kaachiel gi hekaluni, mane awuoyoe ni, ‘Kanyo ema Nyinga nobedie.’”
28 And the rest of the matters of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
To kuom gik mamoko duto mag loch Josia kod mago duto mane otimo, donge ondikgi e kitabu mag weche mag ruodhi Juda?
29 In his days hath Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt come up against the king of Asshur, by the river Phrat, and king Josiah goeth out to meet him, and he putteth him to death in Megiddo, when he seeth him.
E ndalo loch Josia, Farao Neko ruodh Misri nodhi nyaka Aora Yufrate mondo okony ruodh Asuria kedo. Ruoth Josia nowuok mondo oked kode e paw lweny, to ruoth Neko norado kode monege e paw Megido.
30 And his servants cause him to ride dying from Megiddo, and bring him in to Jerusalem, and bury him in his own grave, and the people of the land take Jehoahaz son of Josiah, and anoint him, and cause him to reign instead of his father.
Jotije Josia nokelo ringre gi geche lweny koa Megido nyaka Jerusalem mine giike e liende owuon kendo jopinyno nokawo Jehoahaz wuod Josia mi giwire kendo mokete obedo ruoth kar wuon mare.
31 A son of twenty and three years [is] Jehoahaz in his reigning, and three months he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah,
Jehoahaz ne ja-higni piero ariyo gadek kane odoko ruoth kendo nobedo e loch kuom dweche adek kodak Jerusalem. Min mare nyinge ne Hamutal nyar Jeremia; mane aa Libna.
32 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers did,
Ne otimo richo e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye mana kaka kwerene notimo.
33 and Pharaoh-Nechoh bindeth him in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, from reigning in Jerusalem, and he putteth a fine on the land — a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Farao Neko noterogi e twech Ribla e piny Hamath mondo kik obed ruoth kodak Jerusalem kendo nochuno jo-Juda mondo ochiw osuru mar fedha ma pekne romo kilo alufu adek gi mia angʼwen kod dhahabu ma pekne romo kilo piero adek gangʼwen.
34 And Pharaoh-Nechoh causeth Eliakim son of Josiah to reign instead of Josiah his father, and turneth his name to Jehoiakim, and Jehoahaz he hath taken away, and he cometh in to Egypt, and dieth there.
Farao Neko noketo Eliakim wuod Josia ruoth kar wuon mare Josia kendo noloko nying Eliakim ni Jehoyakim. To nokawo Jehoahaz mi otero e twech Misri kuma nothoe.
35 And the silver and the gold hath Jehoiakim given to Pharaoh; only he valued the land to give the silver by the command of Pharaoh; from each, according to his valuation, he exacted the silver and the gold, from the people of the land, to give to Pharaoh-Nechoh.
Jehoyakim nochulo Farao Neko fedha kod dhahabu mane odwaro. Notimo kamano kogolo osuru kuom jopinyno kuom fedha gi dhahabu kaluwore gi yuto mar ngʼato ka ngʼato.
36 A son of twenty and five years [is] Jehoiakim in his reigning, and eleven years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Zebudah daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah,
Jehoyakim ne ja-higni piero ariyo gabich kane odoko ruoth kendo nobedo e loch kodak Jerusalem kuom higni apar gachiel. Min mare ne nyinge Zebida nyar Pedaya; mane aa Ruma.
37 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers did.
Kendo notimo gik maricho e nyim wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye, mana kaka kwerene notimo.
