< Kronika 2 30 >
1 Hezekia ɖo du ɖe Israel kple Yuda blibo la eye wòŋlɔ agbalẽwo hã ɖo ɖe Efraim kple Manase toawo, nɔ wo kpem be woava Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me le Yerusalem eye woaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la.
And Hezekiah sends to all Israel and Judah, and he has also written letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, [to cause them] to come to the house of YHWH in Jerusalem, to make a Passover to YHWH, God of Israel.
2 Fia la kple eƒe dziɖulawo kple ameha blibo la si nɔ Yerusalem ɖo tame be yewoaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le ɣleti evelia me.
And the king takes counsel, and his heads, and all the assembly in Jerusalem, to make the Passover in the second month,
3 Womete ŋu ɖu ŋkekenyui sia le ɣeyiɣi ɖoɖi la dzi ƒe sia ƒe o elabena nunɔla siwo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu la mesɔ gbɔ o eye ameawo mekpe ta ɖe Yerusalem o.
for they have not been able to make it at that time, for the priests have not sanctified themselves sufficiently, and the people have not been gathered to Jerusalem.
4 Fia la kple eƒe aɖaŋudelawo katã lɔ̃ ɖe ɖoɖo sia dzi
And the thing is right in the eyes of the king, and in the eyes of all the assembly,
5 eya ta woɖe gbeƒã Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu to Israelnyigba blibo la dzi, tso Dan yi Beerseba eye wokpe ame sia ame va Yerusalem hena ŋkekenyuia ɖuɖu na Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la, elabena eteƒe didi Israelviwo megaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la kpɔ, abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi ene o.
and they establish the thing, to cause an intimation to pass over into all Israel, from Beer-Sheba even to Dan, to come to make a Passover to YHWH, God of Israel, in Jerusalem; for they had not done as it is written for a long time.
6 Dɔlawo xɔ agbalẽawo le fia la kple eƒe amegãwo si ɖatsa le le Israel blibo la kple Yuda eye wogblɔ le fia la ƒe sedede nu be be, “Israelviwo, mitrɔ gbɔ va Yehowa, Abraham kple Isak kple Israel ƒe Mawu la gbɔ, ale be eya hã natrɔ ɖe mi ame siwo do le Asiria fiawo ƒe ŋusẽ te la ŋu.
And the runners go with letters from the hand of the king and his heads into all Israel and Judah, even according to the command of the king, saying, “O sons of Israel, turn back to YHWH, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and He turns back to the escaped part that is left of you from the hand of the kings of Asshur;
7 Miganɔ abe mia nɔviwo, ame siwo wɔ nu vɔ̃ ɖe Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu ŋu eye wòtsrɔ̃ wo la ene o.
and do not be like your fathers and like your brothers, who trespassed against YHWH, God of their fathers, and He gives them to desolation, as you see.
8 Miganye kɔlialiatɔwo abe woawo ene o, ke boŋ miɖe asi le mia ɖokuiwo ŋu na Yehowa eye miatrɔ va eƒe gbedoxɔ si ŋu wokɔ tegbee la me. Misubɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ale be eƒe dɔmedzoe helihelĩ la naɖe ɖa le mia dzi.
Now do not harden your neck like your fathers, give a hand to YHWH, and come into His sanctuary that He has sanctified for all time, and serve your God YHWH, and the fierceness of His anger turns back from you;
9 Ne miegatrɔ ɖe Aƒetɔ la ŋu la, ame siwo ɖe aboyo mia nɔviwo kple mia viwo la, akpɔ nublanui na wo eye woagate ŋu atrɔ agbɔ va anyigba sia dzi elabena Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ƒe dɔme nyo eye eƒe amenuveve li tegbee eya ta magble mí ɖi, ne míetrɔ ɖe eŋu o.”
for in your turning back to YHWH, your brothers and your sons have mercies before their captors, even to return to this land, for your God YHWH [is] gracious and merciful, and He does not turn aside the face from you if you turn back to Him.”
10 Ale dɔlawo tsa le duwo katã me le Efraim kple Manase kple Zebulon. Ke enuenu la, ameawo xɔa wo kple nukoko kple vlodoame!
And the runners are passing over from city to city in the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, even to Zebulun, but they are laughing at them and mocking at them,
11 Ke ame aɖewo ya tso Aser, Manase kple Zebulon ƒe viwo dome trɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu eye wova Yerusalem.
only, certain from Asher, and Manasseh, and from Zebulun, have been humbled, and come to Jerusalem.
12 Le Yuda la, Mawu ƒe Gbɔgbɔ nyɔ didi sesẽ aɖe le dukɔ blibo la me be woawɔ Yehowa ƒe ɖoɖowo dzi abe ale si fia la kple eŋumewo bia tso wo si la ene.
Also, in Judah the hand of God has been to give one heart to them to do the command of the king and of the heads in the matter of YHWH;
13 Ale ameha gã aɖe va kpe ta ɖe Yerusalem le ɣleti evelia me hena Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu.
and many people are gathered to Jerusalem to make the Celebration of Unleavened Things in the second month—a mighty assembly for multitude.
14 Wogbã trɔ̃subɔlawo ƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo kple dzudzɔdovɔsamlekpuiwo katã le Yerusalem eye wolɔ woƒe gbagbãwo yi ɖakɔ ɖe Kidron tɔʋu la me.
And they arise and turn aside the altars that [are] in Jerusalem, and they have turned aside all the incense altars, and cast [them] into the Brook of Kidron;
15 Le ɣleti evelia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi la, ameawo wu alẽviwo hena Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu. Ŋukpe lé nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo, ale wokɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu eye wotsɔ numevɔsanuwo yi gbedoxɔ la me.
and they slaughter the Passover-offering on the fourteenth of the second month, and the priests and the Levites have been ashamed, and sanctify themselves, and bring in burnt-offerings to the house of YHWH.
16 Wotsi tsitre ɖe woƒe nɔƒewo abe ale si Mose, Mawu ƒe ame la, ƒe sewo ɖo na wo ene. Levitɔwo tsɔ vɔsalẽwo ƒe ʋu na nunɔlawo eye wohlẽe.
And they stand on their station according to their ordinance, according to the Law of Moses the man of God; the priests are sprinkling the blood out of the hand of the Levites,
17 Esi ameawo dometɔ geɖewo mekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu o ta la, womete ŋu wu alẽviwo na Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu o eya ta Levitɔwo wu wo na wo eye wotsɔ alẽviawo de asi na Yehowa.
for many [are] in the assembly who have not sanctified themselves, and the Levites [are] over the slaughtering of the Passover-offerings for everyone not clean, to sanctify [him] to YHWH:
18 Hekpe ɖe esia ŋu la, ame siwo tso Efraim, Manase, Isaka kple Zebulon ƒe hlɔ̃wo me va la, dometɔ geɖewo mekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋuti o ale womenɔ Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖum nyuie ɖe se la nu o. Fia Hezekia do gbe ɖa ɖe wo ta be,
for a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, have not been cleansed, but have eaten the Passover otherwise than it is written; but Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, “YHWH, who [is] good, receives atonement for everyone
19 “Oo Yehowa, mía fofowo ƒe Mawu, le wò dɔmenyo ta la, tsɔ nu vɔ̃ ke ame siwo le subɔwòm kple woƒe dzi blibo togbɔ be womekɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu o hã.”
who has prepared his heart to seek God—YHWH, God of his fathers—yet not according to the cleansing of the holy place”;
20 Yehowa se Hezekia ƒe gbedodoɖa eye metsrɔ̃ ameawo o.
and YHWH listens to Hezekiah and heals the people.
21 Ale Israelviwo ɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la le Yerusalem ŋkeke adre kple dzidzɔ gã. Le ɣe ma ɣi la, Levitɔwo kple nunɔlawo kafua Mawu sesĩe kple hadzidziwo kple gakogoewo gbe sia gbe.
And the sons of Israel, those found in Jerusalem, make the Celebration of Unleavened Things [for] seven days with great joy; and the Levites and the priests are giving praise to YHWH day by day with instruments of praise before YHWH.
22 Fia Hezekia kafu Levitɔwo le woƒe ha viviwo dzidzi ta. Ale ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu yi edzi ŋkeke adre. Wosa akpedavɔwo eye amewo ʋu woƒe nu vɔ̃wo me na Yehowa, wo fofowo ƒe Mawu la.
And Hezekiah speaks to the heart of all the Levites, those giving good understanding concerning YHWH, and they eat the appointed thing [for] seven days; sacrificing sacrifices of peace-offerings, and making confession to YHWH, God of their fathers.
23 Ameawo gayi vividodo ɖe ŋkekenyui la ŋu dzi eya ta wo katã woɖoe be yewoagayi ŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu dzi ŋkeke adre bubu.
And all the assembly take counsel to keep [it] another seven days, and they keep [it for] seven days [with] joy;
24 Fia Hezekia na nyitsu akpe ɖeka kple alẽ akpe adre ameawo eye fiaviŋutsuwo hã na nyitsu fɛ̃ akpe ɖeka kple alẽ akpe ewo. Nunɔla geɖewo kɔ wo ɖokuiwo ŋu ɣe ma ɣi.
for Hezekiah king of Judah has presented one thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep to the assembly; and the heads have presented one thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep to the assembly; and priests sanctify themselves in abundance.
25 Yudatɔwo, nunɔlawo, Levitɔwo kple amedzrowo kple ame siwo tso Israelnyigba dzi va la kpɔ dzidzɔ gã aɖe.
And all the assembly of Judah rejoices, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the assembly, those coming in from Israel, and the sojourners—those coming in from the land of Israel and those dwelling in Judah,
26 Eva eme alea elabena womegaɖu ŋkekenyui sia tɔgbi kpɔ alea le Yerusalem le Solomo, Fia David ƒe vi ƒe ŋkekewo megbe o.
and there is great joy in Jerusalem; for from the days of Solomon son of David, king of Israel, there is not like this in Jerusalem,
27 Azɔ la, nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo tsi tsitre, yra ameawo eye Yehowa se woƒe gbedodoɖawo le eƒe gbedoxɔ kɔkɔe la me le dziƒo.
and the priests, the Levites, rise and bless the people, and their voice is heard, and their prayer comes into His holy habitation in the heavens.
