< 2 Maũndũ 29 >
1 Hezekia aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na kenda. Nyina eetagwo Abija mwarĩ wa Zekaria.
Hezekiah began to reign being twenty-five years old; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abijah, daughter of Zechariah.
2 Nake agĩĩka maũndũ marĩa maagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe Daudi eekĩte.
And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done.
3 Mweri wa mbere wa mwaka wa mbere wa wathani wake-rĩ, nĩahingũrire mĩrango ya hekarũ ya Jehova na akĩmĩthondeka kũrĩa yathũkĩtio.
He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and repaired them.
4 Nake akĩrehe athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii, akĩmacookanĩrĩria hamwe nja ya mwena wa irathĩro,
And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them into the open place eastward;
5 akiuga atĩrĩ: “Ta thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ Alawii! Mwĩtheriei rĩu, na mũtherie hekarũ ya Jehova Ngai wa maithe manyu. Eheriai kĩndũ gĩothe kĩrĩ thaahu kuuma handũ-harĩa-haamũre.
and he said to them, Hear me, ye Levites: hallow yourselves now, and hallow the house of Jehovah the God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the sanctuary.
6 Maithe maitũ matiarĩ ehokeku; nĩmekire ũũru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova Ngai witũ na makĩmũtirika. Nĩmahũgũrire mothiũ mao makĩaga kũrora gĩikaro kĩa Jehova, makĩmũhutatĩra.
For our fathers have transgressed, and done evil in the sight of Jehovah our God, and have forsaken him and turned away their faces from the habitation of Jehovah, and have turned their backs.
7 O na ningĩ nĩmahingire mĩrango ya gĩthaku na makĩhoria matawa. Matiacinire ũbumba kana makĩrutĩra Ngai wa Isiraeli maruta o na marĩkũ ma njino handũ-inĩ harĩa haamũre.
Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered up burnt-offerings in the sanctuary to the God of Israel.
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, marakara ma Jehova magĩkora Juda na Jerusalemu; nake agĩtũma matuĩke ta kĩndũ gĩa kũmakania na kĩa magigi, na gĩa kũnyũrũrio, o ta ũrĩa mũreyonera na maitho manyu.
Therefore the wrath of Jehovah has been upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he has delivered them to vexation, to desolation, and to hissing, as ye see with your eyes.
9 Kĩu nĩkĩo gĩatũmire maithe maitũ mooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, na nokĩo gĩtũmĩte ariũ aitũ, na airĩtu aitũ, na atumia aitũ matahwo.
And behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.
10 Na rĩrĩ, ndĩciirĩtie na ngoro yakwa kũrĩkanĩra kĩrĩkanĩro na Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, nĩgeetha marakara make mahiũ matweherere.
Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with Jehovah the God of Israel, that his fierce anger may turn away from us.
11 Atĩrĩrĩ, ariũ akwa, mũtigatuĩke andũ matarũmbũyagia ũndũ, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩamũthuurĩte mũrũgamage mbere yake mũmũtungatagĩre, mũtuĩke a gũtungata mũrĩ mbere yake na mũcinage ũbumba.”
My sons, be not now negligent; for Jehovah has chosen you to stand before him, to do service unto him, and to be his ministers and incense-burners.
12 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Alawii aya makĩambĩrĩria kũruta wĩra: kuuma kũrĩ Akohathu, maarĩ Mahathu mũrũ wa Amasai, na Joeli mũrũ wa Azaria; kuuma kũrĩ Amerari, maarĩ Kishu mũrũ wa Abudi, na Azaria mũrũ wa Jehaleleli; kuuma kũrĩ Agerishoni, maarĩ Joa mũrũ wa Zima, na Edeni mũrũ wa Joa;
Then the Levites rose up, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehalleleel; and of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah;
13 kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Elizafani, maarĩ Shimuri na Jeieli; kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Asafu, maarĩ Zekaria na Matania;
and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeiel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 Kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Hemani, maarĩ Jehueli na Shimei; kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Jeduthuni, maarĩ Shemaia na Uzieli.
and of the sons of Heman, Jehiel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 Maarĩkia gũcookanĩrĩria ariũ a ithe wao hamwe na meetheria-rĩ, magĩtoonya hekarũ ya Jehova, makĩmĩtheria, o ta ũrĩa mũthamaki aathanĩte arũmĩrĩire kiugo kĩa Jehova.
And they gathered their brethren, and hallowed themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king by the words of Jehovah, to cleanse the house of Jehovah.
16 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai magĩtoonya handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha Jehova nĩguo mahatherie. Na indo ciothe iria itaarĩ theru iria maakorire kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova magĩciruta magĩciiga nja ya hekarũ ya Jehova. Nao Alawii magĩcioya magĩcitwara Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Kidironi.
And the priests went into the inner part of the house of Jehovah to cleanse it, and carried forth all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of Jehovah, into the court of the house of Jehovah. And the Levites took it to carry it forth into the brook Kidron.
17 Maambĩrĩirie wĩra wa gũtheria hekarũ mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mbere, na mũthenya wa ĩnana wa mweri ũcio magĩkinya gĩthaku-inĩ kĩa Jehova. Na handũ ha matukũ mangĩ manana-rĩ, magĩtheria hekarũ ya Jehova yo nyene, na makĩrĩkia wĩra ũcio mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩtandatũ wa mweri ũcio wa mbere.
And they began on the first of the first month to hallow, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the porch of Jehovah; and they hallowed the house of Jehovah eight days; and on the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end.
18 Magĩcooka magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Mũthamaki Hezekia, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Nĩtũtheretie hekarũ ya Jehova yothe, kĩgongona kĩa maruta ma njino, na indo ciakĩo ciothe, na metha ĩrĩa ĩigagĩrĩrwo mĩgate ĩrĩa mĩamũre, na indo ciayo ciothe.
And they went in to king Hezekiah, and said, We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah, and the altar of burnt-offering with all its vessels, and the table of the [bread] to be set in rows, and all its vessels;
19 Nĩtũhaarĩirie na tũkaamũra indo iria ciothe Mũthamaki Ahazu ehereetie Hekarũ-inĩ rĩrĩa aarĩ mũthamaki nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga wĩhokeku. Na rĩrĩ, rĩu irĩ mbere ya kĩgongona kĩa Jehova.”
and all the vessels that king Ahaz in his reign cast away in his transgression have we prepared and hallowed, and behold, they are before the altar of Jehovah.
20 Na rĩrĩ, rũciinĩ tene, Mũthamaki Hezekia agĩcookanĩrĩria anene a itũũra rĩu inene na magĩthiĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.
And Hezekiah the king arose early, and gathered the princes of the city, and went up to the house of Jehovah.
21 Nao makĩrehe ndegwa mũgwanja, na ndũrũme mũgwanja, na tũtũrũme mũgwanja, o na thenge mũgwanja cia igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia makoniĩ ũthamaki ũcio, na ma handũ-harĩa-haamũre o na ma Juda. Nake mũthamaki agĩatha athĩnjĩri-Ngai, o acio a njiaro cia Harũni, macithĩnjĩre hau kĩgongona-inĩ kĩa Jehova.
And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he-goats for a sin-offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer [them] upon the altar of Jehovah.
22 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩthĩnja ndegwa icio, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩoya thakame yacio makĩmĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona; magĩcooka magĩthĩnja ndũrũme icio na makĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona thakame yacio; magĩcooka magĩthĩnja tũtũrũme tũu na makĩminjaminjĩria kĩgongona thakame yatuo.
And they slaughtered the bullocks, and the priests received the blood, and sprinkled it on the altar; and they slaughtered the rams, and sprinkled the blood on the altar; and they slaughtered the lambs, and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Nacio thenge cia igongona rĩa kũhoroherio mehia ikĩrehwo mbere ya mũthamaki na kĩũngano kĩu, nao magĩciigĩrĩra moko.
And they brought near the he-goats of the sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and they laid their hands upon them.
24 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai magĩcooka magĩthĩnja thenge icio hamwe na thakame yacio, magĩcirutĩra hau kĩgongona-inĩ irĩ maruta ma kũhoroheria mehia nĩguo ihoroherie andũ a Isiraeli othe, nĩ tondũ mũthamaki nĩathanĩte kũrutwo iruta rĩa njino na iruta rĩa kũhoroheria mehia rĩrĩ rĩa andũ othe a Isiraeli.
And the priests slaughtered them, and they made purification for sin with their blood upon the altar, to make an atonement for all Israel; because for all Israel, said the king, is the burnt-offering and the sin-offering.
25 Mũthamaki akĩiga Alawii hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova marĩ na thaani iria ihũũrithanagio ikagamba, na inanda cia mũgeeto na cia kĩnũbi ta ũrĩa gwaathanĩtwo nĩ Daudi na Gadi mũndũ ũrĩa wonagĩra mũthamaki maũndũ, na Nathani ũrĩa mũnabii; ũndũ ũyũ waathanĩtwo nĩ Jehova na tũnua twa anabii ake.
And he set the Levites in the house of Jehovah with cymbals, with lutes, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, and of Gad the king's seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was of Jehovah through his prophets.
26 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Alawii makĩrũgama mehaarĩirie na inanda cia Daudi cia kũina, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai marĩ na tũrumbeta twao.
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 Hezekia agĩathana atĩ kũrutwo iruta rĩa njino kĩgongona-inĩ. Narĩo igongona rĩambĩrĩria kũrutwo-rĩ, andũ makĩambĩrĩria kũinĩra Jehova marĩ na tũrumbeta na inanda cia kũina cia Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
And Hezekiah commanded to offer up the burnt-offering on the altar. And at the moment the burnt-offering began, the song of Jehovah began, and the trumpets, accompanied by the instruments of David king of Israel.
28 Kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe gĩkĩinamĩrĩra, gĩkĩhooya, nao aini makĩinaga na tũrumbeta tũkĩhuhagwo. Maũndũ macio mothe magĩthiĩ na mbere nginya igongona rĩu rĩa njino rĩkĩrĩka kũrutwo.
And all the congregation worshipped, and the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded, all [the time] until the burnt-offering was finished.
29 Na rĩrĩa maruta maarĩkirie kũrutwo-rĩ, mũthamaki na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ nake hau magĩturia maru makĩhooya.
And when they had ended offering the burnt-offering, the king and all that were present with him bowed themselves and worshipped.
30 Nake Mũthamaki Hezekia na anene ake magĩatha Alawii magooce Jehova na ciugo cia Daudi na cia Asafu mũndũ ũrĩa muoni-maũndũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩina nyĩmbo cia kũgooca Jehova marĩ na gĩkeno na makĩinamia mĩtwe yao makĩmũhooya.
And king Hezekiah and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praise to Jehovah with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and bowed their heads and worshipped.
31 Ningĩ Hezekia akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩmweyamũrĩra Jehova. Rehei magongona na maruta ma gũcookia ngaatho hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio kĩũngano kĩu gĩkĩrehe magongona na maruta ma gũcookia ngaatho, na andũ othe arĩa ngoro ciao cieyendeire makĩrehe maruta ma njino.
And Hezekiah answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to Jehovah, come near and bring sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought in sacrifices and thank-offerings; and as many as were of a willing heart, burnt-offerings.
32 Naguo mũigana wa maruta ma njino marĩa maarehirwo nĩ kĩũngano kĩu warĩ ndegwa mĩrongo mũgwanja, na ndũrũme 100 na tũtũrũme 200, ciothe ciarĩ cia maruta ma njino ma kũrutĩrwo Jehova.
And the number of the burnt-offerings, which the congregation brought, was seventy bullocks, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these were for a burnt-offering to Jehovah.
33 Nyamũ ciothe iria ciaamũrĩtwo cia magongona ciarĩ ndegwa 600 na ngʼondu hamwe na mbũri 3,000.
And the consecrated things were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
34 Na rĩrĩ, athĩnjĩri-Ngai maarĩ anini mũno matingĩahotire gũthĩnja nyamũ ciothe cia maruta ma njino; nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a nyũmba ciao, nĩo Alawii, makĩmateithĩrĩria nginya wĩra ũcio ũkĩrĩka nginya rĩrĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai angĩ maamũrirwo, nĩgũkorwo Alawii maarĩ na kĩyo gĩa kwĩyamũra gũkĩra athĩnjĩri-Ngai.
Only the priests were too few, and they could not flay all the burnt-offerings; therefore their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was ended, and until the priests had hallowed themselves; for the Levites were more upright in heart to hallow themselves than the priests.
35 Na rĩrĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na maruta ma njino maingĩ mũno, hamwe na maguta ma maruta ma ũiguano, o na maruta ma indo cia kũnyuuo marĩa maarutanagĩrio na maruta ma njino. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio wĩra wa ũtungata wa hekarũ ya Jehova ũgĩcookio rĩngĩ.
And also the burnt-offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace-offerings, and with the drink-offerings for the burnt-offering. And the service of the house of Jehovah was set in order.
36 Nake Hezekia na andũ othe magĩkena nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa Ngai eekĩire andũ ake, tondũ ũndũ ũcio wekirwo narua mũno.
And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, that God had prepared the people; for the thing was done suddenly.
