3 Le Fia Yosia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuienyilia me la, Yosia ɖo eƒe nuŋlɔla Safan, Azalia ƒe viŋutsu, ame si nye Mesulam ƒe tɔgbuiyɔvi la ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Egblɔ be,
Ngomnyaka wetshumi lasificaminwembili wokubusa kwakhe, uJosiya inkosi wathumela unobhala wakhe, uShafani indodana ka-Azaliya, indodana kaMeshulami, ethempelini likaThixo. Wathi,
4 “Yi Hilkia, nunɔlagã la gbɔ wòaƒo ƒu ga si wotsɔ va Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me, si nye ga si agbonudzɔlawo xɔ tso ameawo si la da ɖi.
“Hamba uye kuHilikhiya umphristi omkhulu uyekuthi kalungise imali elethwe ethempelini likaThixo, ekade iqoqwa ebantwini ngabalindi beminyango.
5 Na woatsɔ ga la na ame siwo wotia be woakpɔ gbedoxɔ la dzadzraɖo ƒe dɔwo dzi. Na ame siawo naxe fe na Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ŋu dɔwɔlawo:
Abayigcinise amadoda akhethelwe ukukhangela ukuqhubeka komsebenzi ethempelini. Babe yibo abazaholisa abasebenza ukulungisa kutsha ithempeli likaThixo,
6 atikpalawo, xɔtulawo kple gliɖolawo. Hekpe ɖe esiawo ŋu la, na woaƒle ati kple kpe kpakpawo atsɔ adzra gbedoxɔ la ɖo.
ababazi, abakhi, lababazi bamatshe. Babe yibo njalo abazathenga amapulanka lamatshe abaziweyo okulungisa kutsha ithempeli.
7 Womebia tso xɔtutudɔdzikpɔlawo si be woawɔ akɔnta tso woƒe nu gbegblẽwo ŋu tsitotsito o elabena wonye nuteƒewɔlawo.”
Kodwa akudingeki ukuthi babike ngokusetshenziswa kwemali abayigcinisiweyo, ngoba basebenza ngokwethembeka.”
8 Gbe ɖeka la, nunɔlagã Hilkia yi nuŋlɔla Safan gbɔ eye wògblɔ be, “Mefɔ Segbalẽ aɖe le le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.” Etsɔe na Safan eye Safan xlẽe.
UHilikhiya umphristi omkhulu wathi kuShafani unobhala, “Sengithole uGwalo lwemiThetho ethempelini likaThixo.” Walunika uShafani walufunda.
9 Safan, nuŋlɔla la yi fia la gbɔ hegblɔ nɛ be, “Wò dɔnunɔlawo tsɔ ga si le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me la na dɔwɔlawo kple dɔdzikpɔlawo le gbedoxɔ la me.”
Ngakho uShafani waya enkosini, wayibikela wathi, “Izikhulu zakho sezibhadele imali ebisethempelini likaThixo njalo seziyigcinise izisebenzi kanye labakhangela ethempelini.”
10 Safan, nuŋlɔla la na nyanya fia la be, “Nunɔlagã Hilkia tsɔ agbalẽ aɖe nam.” Safan xlẽ agbalẽ la me nyawo na fia la.
UShafani unobhala wasebikela inkosi esithi, “UHilikhiya umphristi usenginike ugwalo.” Ngakho uShafani waselubala phambi kwenkosi.
11 Esi fia la se Segbalẽ la me nyawo la, vɔvɔ̃ ɖoe eye wòdze eƒe awuwo.
Inkosi ithe isizwile amazwi eNcwadi yoMthetho, yadabula izembatho zayo.
12 Eɖe gbe na nunɔla Hilkia, Ahikam, Safan ƒe viŋutsu, Akbor, Mikaya ƒe viŋutsu, nuŋlɔla Safan kple Asaya, fia ƒe subɔla be,
Yapha leziziqondiso kuHilikhiya umphristi, lo-Ahikhami indodana kaShafani, lo-Akhibhori indodana kaMikhaya loShafani unobhala kanye lo-Asaya inceku yenkosi, yathi:
13 “Miyi miabia Yehowa nam kple ameawo kple Yuda blibo la tso nu siwo woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ si wofɔ la ŋuti. Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe bi ɖe mía ŋu elabena mía fofowo mewɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me nyawo dzi o; womezɔ ɖe nu siwo katã woŋlɔ tso mía ŋu ɖe agbalẽ sia me la nu o.”
“Hambani kuThixo liyengibuzela mina labantu kanye loJuda wonke ngalokhu okulotshwe kulolugwalo osolutholakele. Lukhulu ulaka lukaThixo oluvuthayo kithi ngoba okhokho bethu kabawalalelanga amazwi alolugwalo: abakulandelanga konke okulotshiweyo kulo mayelana lathi.”
14 Ale nunɔla Hilkia, Ahikam, Akbor, Safan kple Asaya yi ɖaƒo nu kple nyɔnu Nyagblɔɖila Hulda si le Yerusalem ƒe akpa yeye. Nyɔnu Nyagblɔɖila sia nye Tikva ƒe viŋutsu Salum srɔ̃. Harhas si dzi Tikva nye nudodowo dzraɖoƒe dzikpɔla.
UHilikhiya umphristi, lo-Ahikhami, lo-Akhibhori, loShafani lo-Asaya bayakhuluma lomphrofethikazi uHulida umkaShalumi indodana kaThikhiva, indodana kaHarihasi, umgcini wezigqoko. UHulida wayehlala eJerusalema Esigabeni Sesibili.
15 Egblɔ na wo be, “Nu si Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye, ‘Gblɔ na ame si ɖo wò ɖe gbɔnye la be,
Yena wathi kubo: “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli ukuthi, tshelani indoda elithume kimi ukuthi,

‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: Ngizakwehlisela incithakalo kulindawo lasebantwini bayo ngakho konke okulotshwe egwalweni olubalwa yinkosi yakoJuda.

Ngoba bangihlamukele, batshisela abanye onkulunkulu impepha, njalo bangithukuthelisile ngazozonke izithombe abazenze ngezandla zabo, ulaka lwami luzavutha kule indawo lungacitshwa muntu.’
18 Gblɔ na Yuda fia, ame si dɔ wò be nàbia gbe Yehowa be, ‘Ale Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔ tso nya siwo ke nèse la ŋuti.
Tshelani inkosi yakoJuda yona elithume ukuzabuza kuThixo, lithi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, mayelana lamazwi eliwazwileyo:
19 Ke esi miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ve mi eye miebɔbɔ mia ɖokui le Yehowa ŋkume, esi miese nu si megblɔ tsɔ tsi tsitre ɖe teƒe sia kple eƒe amewo ŋu be woaƒo fi ade anyigba sia wòazu aƒedo, eye esi miedze miaƒe awuwo eye miefa avi le nye ŋkume le miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta la, maɖo to miaƒe kukuɖeɖe.
Ngenxa yokuthi inhliziyo yakho ivumile njalo uzithobile phambi kukaThixo lapho usizwa engikukhulume ngendawo le labantu bayo, ukuthi bazakuba ngabaqalekisiweyo bachithwe, njalo ngenxa yokuthi udabule izigqoko zakho wakhala phambi kwami, ngikuzwile, kutsho uThixo.
20 Eya ta àku eye woaɖi wò le ŋutifafa me. Wò ŋkuwo makpɔ dzɔgbevɔ̃e si mahe va dukɔ sia dzi o.’” Ale woxɔ eƒe ŋuɖoɖo yi na fia la.
Ngakho ngizakusa kubokhokho bakho, njalo uzangcwatshwa ngokuthula. Amehlo akho awayikuyibona incithakalo engizayehlisela kule indawo.’” Ngakho izithunywa zayithatha leyompendulo zayisa enkosini.
