1 Rĩrĩa maũndũ macio mothe maathirire-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ hau makiumagara magĩthiĩ matũũra-inĩ ma Juda, makĩhehenja mahiga marĩa mamũrĩirwo ngai cia mĩhianano na magĩtemanga itugĩ cia Ashera. Ningĩ makĩananga kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru kwahooyagĩrwo o na igongona iria ciarĩ Juda guothe na Benjamini, o na kũu Efiraimu na Manase. Thuutha wa gũcithũkangia ciothe, andũ a Isiraeli magĩcooka matũũra-inĩ mao na o mũndũ agĩcooka igai-inĩ rĩake.
And when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the statues, and cut down the groves, and pulled down the high-places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, and in Ephraim and Menasseh, until they had made an end of them all. Then returned all the children of Israel every man to his possession, to their own cities.
2 Hezekia agĩkĩiga athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii na ikundi, o gĩkundi kũringana na wĩra wakĩo, marĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai kana Alawii, marutage maruta ma njino na ma ũiguano, ningĩ matungatage, na macookagie ngaatho, na mainage nyĩmbo cia ũgooci marĩ ihingo-inĩ cia gĩikaro kĩa Jehova.
And Hezekiah stationed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, of the priests and the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camps of the Lord.
3 Mũthamaki nĩaheanire indo ciake mwene cia kũrutagwo maruta ma njino ma rũciinĩ na ma hwaĩ-inĩ, na maruta ma njino ma Thabatũ, na ma Tũrũgamo twa Mweri, na ma ciathĩ-inĩ iria ciatuĩtwo, o ta ũrĩa kwaandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ wa Jehova.
The king also gave a portion from his own property for the burnt-offerings, [namely, ] for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, and the burnt-offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new-moons, and for the appointed feasts, as it is written in the law of the Lord.
4 Agĩatha andũ arĩa maatũũraga Jerusalemu maheage athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii rwĩga rũrĩa rwamagĩrĩire, nĩgeetha nao mahotage kwĩheana harĩ Watho wa Jehova.
Moreover he said to the people, to those who dwelt in Jerusalem, to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, in order that they might hold firmly to the law of the Lord.
5 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa watho ũcio wamenyekire-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli makĩheana na ũtaana maciaro mao ma mbere ma ngano, na ma ndibei ya mũhihano, na maguta, na ũũkĩ, na maciaro ma mĩgũnda yao. Makĩrehe indo nyingĩ mũno o na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo ciothe.
And when the matter was spread abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the first-fruits of corn, of the new wine, and of oil, and of honey, and of all the products of the field: and the tithe of all things did they bring [likewise] in abundance.
6 Nao andũ a Isiraeli na Juda arĩa maatũũraga matũũra-inĩ ma Juda o nao makĩrehe gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa ndũũru ciao cia ngʼombe na ngʼondu, o na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo iria ciamũrĩirwo Jehova Ngai wao, nao magĩciiga irũndo.
And as for the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were hallowed unto the Lord their God, and gave [them] by heaps.
7 Maambĩrĩirie gwĩka ũndũ ũyũ mweri wa ĩtatũ na makĩrĩkia mweri wa mũgwanja.
In the third month did they begin to lay the foundation of the heaps, and in the seventh month did they finish them.
8 Rĩrĩa Hezekia na anene ake mookire na makĩona irũndo icio, makĩgooca Jehova na makĩrathima andũ ake a Isiraeli.
And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord, and his people Israel.
9 Hezekia akĩũria athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii ũhoro wa irũndo icio;
Then made Hezekiah inquiry of the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
10 nake Azaria mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene wa kuuma nyũmba ya Zadoku akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kuuma andũ maambĩrĩria kũrehe mĩhothi yao hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova-rĩ, nĩtũkoretwo tũrĩ na irio cia kũigana kũrĩa, o na tũgatigia nyingĩ mũno, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩarathimĩte andũ ake, na irio ici nyingĩ ũũ igagĩtigara.”
Then spoke to him 'Azaryahu the chief priest of the house of Zadok, and said, Since it was begun to bring the heave-offerings into the house of the Lord, there hath been enough to eat, and to leave in great abundance; for the Lord hath blessed his people: and that which is left is this great mass.
11 Hezekia agĩathana gwakwo makũmbĩ kũu thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova, na gũgĩĩkwo ũguo.
Then ordered Hezekiah to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord: and they prepared them.
12 Nao magĩcooka makĩrehe mĩhothi na wĩhokeku, na icunjĩ cia ikũmi, na iheo iria nyamũre. Konania ũrĩa Mũlawii nĩwe watuirwo mũrori wa indo icio, nake mũrũ wa ithe Shimei nĩwe warĩ mũnini wake.
And they brought in the heave-offerings, and the tithes, and the sanctified things, in faithfulness: and over them were appointed the ruler Conanyahu the Levite, and Shim'i his brother the second in rank.
13 Jehieli, na Azazia, na Nahathu, na Asaheli, na Jerimothu, na Jozabadu, na Elieli, na Isimakia, na Mahathu, na Benaia nĩo maarĩ arũgamĩrĩri rungu rwa Konania na mũrũ wa ithe Shimei, ta ũrĩa gwatuĩtwo nĩ Mũthamaki Hezekia na Azaria ũrĩa warĩ mũnene wa hekarũ ya Ngai.
And Jechiel, and 'Azazyahu, and Nachath, and 'Assahel, and Jerimoth. and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Yissmachyahu, and Machath, and Benayahu, were overseers under the supervision of Conanyahu and Shim'i his brother, by the appointment of king Hezekiah, and 'Azazyahu the ruler of the house of God.
14 Kore mũrũ wa Imuna ũrĩa Mũlawii, mũikaria wa Kĩhingo kĩa Mwena wa Irathĩro, nĩwe warĩ mũrori wa indo iria ciarutagĩrwo Ngai na kwĩyendera, akagayaga mĩhothi ĩrĩa ĩrutĩirwo Jehova hamwe na iheo iria nyamũre.
And Kore the son of Yimnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east side. was over the freewill-offerings of God, to give [to him] the heave-offerings of the Lord, and the most holy things.
15 Edeni, na Miniamini, na Jeshua, na Shemaia, na Amaria, na Shekania nĩo maamũteithagĩrĩria marĩ na wĩhokeku kũu matũũra-inĩ ma athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na makagayagĩra athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa angĩ o ta ũrĩa ikundi ciao ciatariĩ, makagaĩra arĩa akũrũ na arĩa anini o ũndũ ũmwe.
And under his supervision were 'Eden, and Minyamin, and Jeshua', and Shema-yahu, Amaryahu, and Shechanyahu, in the cities of the priests, in faithfulness, to give to their brethren after the divisions, equally to the great as to the small;
16 Hamwe na ũguo makĩgaĩra arũme arĩa maarĩ na mĩaka ĩtatũ na makĩria arĩa marĩĩtwa mao maarĩ maandĩko-inĩ ma njiarwa, nao nĩo andũ arĩa othe maangĩatoonyire hekarũ-nĩ ya Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa kũruta mawĩra mao ma o mũthenya, ta ũrĩa wĩra wa o mũndũ watariĩ na kũringana na ikundi ciao.
Besides [these] to those recorded by their genealogies of males, from three years old and upward, of all that entered into the house of the Lord, the daily portion on its day, for their service in their charges according to their divisions.
17 Nao makĩgaĩra athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maandĩkithĩtio nĩ andũ a nyũmba ciao maandĩko-inĩ ma njiarwa ciao, o na Alawii arĩa maarĩ na mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na makĩria, ta ũrĩa wĩra wa o mũndũ watariĩ na kũringana na ikundi ciao.
And likewise to the priests recorded by their genealogies after their family divisions, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their divisions;
18 Maataranĩirie ciana ciothe, na atumia, na ariũ ao, na airĩtu a mũingĩ wothe ũrĩa waandĩkĩtwo maandĩko-inĩ ma njiarwa. Nĩgũkorwo maarĩ ehokeku ũhoro-inĩ wao wa gwĩtheria.
And to those recorded by their genealogies of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, of all the assembly; for in their faithfulness they devoted themselves in the sanctuary.
19 Ha ũhoro wa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, o acio a rũciaro rwa Harũni, arĩa maatũũraga mĩgũnda-inĩ ĩrĩa yathiũrũrũkĩirie matũũra mao kana matũũra mangĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na andũ amwe maathuurĩtwo na makagwetwo marĩĩtwa a kũgaĩra arũme othe arĩa maarĩ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao rũgai rwao, na kũrĩ arĩa othe maandĩkĩtwo maandĩko-inĩ ma njiarwa cia Alawii.
Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the open districts of their cities, in each and every city, there were men, expressed by name, who had to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were recorded by their genealogies among the Levites.
20 Ũguo nĩguo Hezekia eekire Juda guothe, agĩĩka maũndũ mega, na magĩrĩire na ma kwĩhokeka mbere ya Jehova Ngai wake.
And the like did Hezekiah in all Judah, and he did what is good and right and true before the Lord his God.
21 Maũndũ-inĩ mothe marĩa ekaga ma gũtungata hekarũ-inĩ ya Ngai, na harĩ gwathĩkĩra watho na maathani, nĩarongooragia Ngai wake na akĩruta wĩra na ngoro yake yothe. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩgaacĩra.
And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he acted with all his heart, and prospered.
