1 Josia nĩakũngũĩire Bathaka ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu, nako gatũrũme ka Bathaka gaathĩnjirwo mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri wa mbere.
Afei, Yosia bɔɔ dawuro sɛ, wɔbɛdi Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ Yerusalem wɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no da a ɛtɔ so dunan. Wɔkunkumm Twam Afahyɛ nnwammaa no da no wɔ ɛberɛ a owia rekɔtɔ.
2 Akĩamũra athĩnjĩri-Ngai na akĩmaiga mawĩra-inĩ mao, akĩmekĩra hinya makĩgĩa na kĩyo gĩa gũtungata hekarũ ya Jehova.
Yosia maa asɔfoɔ no kɔɔ wɔn nnwuma so, na ɔhyɛɛ wɔn nkuran wɔ wɔn dwumadie mu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ.
3 Akĩĩra Alawii arĩa maarutanaga Isiraeli guothe na maarĩkĩtie kwamũrĩrwo Jehova atĩrĩ: “Igai ithandũkũ rĩrĩa rĩamũre hekarũ-inĩ ĩrĩa yaakirwo nĩ Solomoni mũrũ wa Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli. Mũtirĩrĩkuuaga na ciande. Na rĩrĩ, tungatagĩrai Jehova Ngai wanyu, na andũ ake a Isiraeli.
Ɔhyɛɛ Lewifoɔ a wɔayi wɔn asi hɔ sɛ wɔnsom Awurade, na wɔyɛ akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ wɔ Israel no sɛ, “Esiane sɛ seesei Apam Adaka no wɔ Salomo Asɔredan mu, na ɛho nhia sɛ mobɛsoa no mo mmati so de adi akɔneaba enti, momfa mo mmerɛ nsom Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn ne ne nkurɔfoɔ Israel.
4 Mwĩhaarĩriei kũringana na nyũmba cianyu na ũrĩa ikundi cianyu itariĩ, na kũringana na watho ũrĩa waandĩkĩtwo nĩ Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli na mũriũ Solomoni.
Monkɔ mo nnwuma so sɛdeɛ mo agyanom mmusua nkyekyɛmu teɛ, ne sɛdeɛ Israelhene Dawid ne ne babarima Salomo ahyɛdeɛ a wɔatwerɛ no kyerɛ.
5 “Rũgamai handũ harĩa hatheru mũrĩ na gĩkundi kĩa Alawii, kĩrũgamĩrĩire o gakundi ka nyũmba cia andũ a bũrũri wanyu arĩa matarĩ Alawii.
“Afei, monnyinagyina kronkronbea a wɔayi ama mo no, na mommoa mmusua a wɔde wɔn ahyɛ mo nsa no wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔde wɔn afɔdeɛ aba Asɔredan mu no.
6 Thĩnjai tũtũrũme twa Bathaka, mwĩamũre na mũhaarĩrie tũtũrũme tũu nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a bũrũri wanyu, mwĩke ũrĩa Jehova aathanire na kanua ka Musa.”
Monkum Twam Afahyɛ nnwammaa no, na monnwira mo ho, na mommoa wɔn a wɔbɛba no. Ahyɛdeɛ biara a Awurade nam Mose so de maeɛ no, monni so.”
7 Josia akĩrutĩra andũ arĩa mataarĩ Alawii arĩa maarĩ hau mũigana wa ngʼondu na mbũri 30,000 cia igongona rĩa Bathaka, o na ngʼombe 3,000, ciothe ciumĩte harĩ indo cia mũthamaki.
Na Yosia firii deɛ ɔwɔ mu, maa nnwammaa ne mmirekyie mma ɔpeduasa ne anantwinini mpem mmiɛnsa sɛ nnipa no Twam Afahyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ.
8 Anene ake o nao nĩmarutĩire andũ, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, o na Alawii indo meyendeire. Hilikia, na Zekaria, na Jehieli, arĩa maarĩ arũgamĩrĩri a hekarũ ya Ngai, nĩmaheire athĩnjĩri-Ngai indo 2,600 cia maruta ma Bathaka, na ngʼombe 300.
Ɔhene no mpanimfoɔ nso firi wɔn pɛ mu, boaa ɔmanfoɔ, asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ no. Hilkia, Sakaria ne Yehiel a wɔyɛ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan no ho mpanimfoɔ nso maa asɔfoɔ no nnwammaa ne mmirekyie mma mpem mmienu ne ahansia ne anantwinini ahasa sɛ Twam Afahyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ.
9 O na Konania, marĩ na Shemaia na Nathaneli ariũ a ithe, na Hashabia, na Jeieli, na Jozabadu, arĩa atongoria a Alawii, makĩruta mũigana wa indo 5,000 cia maruta ma Bathaka, na ngʼombe 500 cia Alawii.
Lewifoɔ ntuanofoɔ Kenania ne ne nuanom mmarima Semaia, Netanel, Hasabia, Yeiel ne Yosabad maa Lewifoɔ nnwammaa ne mmirekyie mma mpem enum ne anantwinini ahanum sɛ wɔn Twam Afahyɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ.
10 Naguo ũtungata ũgĩtabarĩrio, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩrũgama handũ hao hamwe na Alawii marĩ ikundi-inĩ ciao o ta ũrĩa mũthamaki aathanĩte.
Ɛberɛ a Twam Afahyɛ no ho ahosiesie baa awieeɛ no, asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ no gyinagyinaa wɔn afa sɛdeɛ ɔhene no ahyehyɛ ama akuakuo no.
11 Natuo tũtũrũme twa Bathaka tũgĩthĩnjwo, nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩminjaminja thakame ĩrĩa maanengeretwo, o Alawii magĩthĩnjaga nyamũ icio.
Lewifoɔ no kunkumm Twam Afahyɛ nnwammaa no, na wɔde mogya no maa asɔfoɔ no, na wɔde petee afɔrebukyia no so wɔ ɛberɛ a na Lewifoɔ no redwa mmoa no.
12 Nao makĩiga maruta ma njino mwanya nĩguo mamaheane kũrĩ tũkundi twa nyũmba cia andũ, nĩguo marutĩre Jehova, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Musa. Ũguo noguo meekire ũhoro-inĩ wa ngʼombe.
Wɔkyekyɛɛ ɔhyeɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ no maa ɔmanfoɔ no sɛdeɛ wɔn mmusua nkyekyɛmu no teɛ, na wɔatumi de abɔ afɔdeɛ ama Awurade, sɛdeɛ mmara a wɔatwerɛ agu Mose nwoma no mu kyerɛ. Saa ara na wɔyɛɛ anantwinini no nso.
13 Nao makĩhĩhia nyamũ cia Bathaka mwaki-inĩ, ta ũrĩa gwatuĩtwo, nacio indo cia igongona iria nyamũre igĩtherũkio na nyũngũ, na itengʼũ, o na nyũngũ cia igera, na igĩcooka ikĩgaĩrwo andũ othe o narua.
Afei, wɔtotoo Twam Afahyɛ nnwammaa no sɛdeɛ wɔakyerɛ no, na wɔnoaa afɔrebɔdeɛ kronkron no wɔ nkukuo, nnadesɛn ne nkyɛnsee mu, de baa ntɛm so sɛdeɛ ɔmanfoɔ no bɛtumi awe.
14 Thuutha wa ũguo magĩĩthondekera o ene, o na magĩthondekera athĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩgũkorwo athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa maarĩ a rũciaro rwa Harũni, nĩmarutaga maruta ma njino na ma maguta nginya hwaĩ-inĩ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Alawii nĩmethondekeire nyama ciao o ene, na cia athĩnjĩri-Ngai a rũciaro rwa Harũni.
Akyire yi, Lewifoɔ yɛɛ wɔn ne asɔfoɔ no aduane, ɛfiri sɛ, na asɔfoɔ no ayɛ adwuma firi anɔpa kɔsi anadwo a wɔrebɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no na wɔrehye sradeɛ no. Saa ahosiesie yi nyinaa, Lewifoɔ no na wɔgye too wɔn ho so yɛeɛ.
15 Nao aini a njiaro cia Asafu, maikarĩte o kũndũ kũrĩa kwahaarĩirio nĩ Daudi, na Asafu, na Hemani, na Jeduthuni ũrĩa woonagĩra mũthamaki maũndũ. Nao aikaria a ihingo matiarĩ na gĩtũmi gĩa kuuma harĩa maigĩtwo, nĩgũkorwo Alawii acio a thiritũ yao nĩmamathondekeire indo ciao cia Bathaka.
Asaf asefoɔ nnwom ho nimdefoɔ no nso, na wɔwɔ wɔn nnwuma so, sɛdeɛ Dawid, Asaf, Heman ne Yedutun, ɔhene adehunumuni no kyerɛɛ wɔn no. Aponoanohwɛfoɔ no wɛnee apono no a na ɛho nhia sɛ wɔfiri wɔn nnwuma so, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔn mfɛfoɔ Lewifoɔ no de wɔn nnuane kɔma wɔn wɔ hɔ.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ihinda rĩu ũtungata wothe wa Jehova wa gũkũngũĩra Bathaka na iruta rĩa njino, warutĩirwo kĩgongona-inĩ kĩa Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Mũthamaki Josia aathanĩte.
Awurade Twam Afahyɛ no baa awieeɛ da no. Wɔbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no nyinaa wɔ Awurade afɔrebukyia no so, sɛdeɛ ɔhene Yosia hyɛeɛ no.
17 Nao andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ ho magĩkũngũĩra Bathaka ihinda-inĩ rĩu, na makĩgĩa na Gĩathĩ kĩa Mĩgate ĩtarĩ Mĩĩkĩre Ndawa ya Kũimbia kahinda ka mĩthenya mũgwanja.
Israelfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yerusalem de nnanson dii Twam Afahyɛ ne Apiti Afahyɛ no.
18 Nakuo gũtiagĩte na Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka kĩhaana ta kĩu kũu Isiraeli kuuma matukũ-inĩ ma mũnabii Samũeli; na gũtirĩ mũthamaki o na ũmwe wa Isiraeli wakũngũĩire Bathaka ta ũrĩa Josia aamĩkũngũĩire, marĩ hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii, na andũ othe a Juda na a Isiraeli, o hamwe na andũ a Jerusalemu.
Ɛfiri odiyifoɔ Samuel berɛ so no, wɔnnii Twam Afahyɛ sei da. Israel ahemfo no mu biara mpo anni Twam Afahyɛ sɛdeɛ Yosia yɛeɛ a ɔmaa asɔfoɔ, Lewifoɔ, ɔmanfoɔ a wɔwɔ Yerusalem ne nnipa a wɔfiri Yuda ne Israel nyinaa bɛkaa ho.
19 Bathaka ĩyo yakũngũĩirwo mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩnana wa wathani wa Josia.
Wɔdii saa Twam Afahyɛ yi wɔ Yosia ahennie mfirinhyia dunwɔtwe so.
20 Thuutha wa maũndũ macio mothe-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Josia aakorirwo aigĩte hekarũ na njĩra njega, Neko mũthamaki wa Misiri nĩambatire akarũĩre handũ heetagwo Karikemishi Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Farati, nake Josia akiumagara akahũũrane nake.
Yosia siesiee Asɔredan no wieeɛ no, Misraimhene Neko dii nʼakodɔm anim firii Misraim, sɛ wɔrebɛko wɔ Karkemis wɔ asuo Eufrate ano. Na Yosia ne nʼakodɔm nso sii mu sɛ wɔne no rekɔko.
21 No Neko akĩmũtũmĩra andũ makamũũrie atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩ na haaro ĩrĩkũ niĩ nawe, wee mũthamaki wa Juda? Tiwe ndĩratharĩkĩra kahinda gaka, no ndĩ na nyũmba ĩrĩa ndĩ na mbaara nayo. Ngai anjĩĩrĩte hiũhe; nĩ ũndũ ũcio tiga gũkararia Ngai, ũrĩa ũrĩ hamwe na niĩ, kana akwanange.”
Nanso, ɔhene Neko tuu ananmusifoɔ, de nkra yi kɔmaa Yosia sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na wo Yudahene hwehwɛ afiri me nkyɛn? Me ne wo nni akasakasa ɛnnɛ! Deɛ mehwehwɛ ne sɛ, me ne ɔman a matu ne so sa no bɛko. Na Onyankopɔn aka akyerɛ me sɛ, menyɛ no ntɛm. Ntwintwane Onyankopɔn a ɔka me ho no anan mu, anyɛ saa a ɔbɛsɛe wo.”
22 No rĩrĩ, Josia ndaigana kũgarũrũka atigane nake, no nĩ kwĩgarũra egarũrire nĩguo ndakamenyeke nĩgeetha akarũe nake. Ndaigana gũthikĩrĩria ũrĩa Neko aathĩtwo nĩ Ngai oige, no nĩathiire kũrũa nake werũ-inĩ wa Megido.
Nanso, Yosia antie Neko a Onyankopɔn akasa akyerɛ no ampa ara no, annane nʼani. Mmom, ɔdii nʼakodɔm anim, kɔkoo wɔ Megido tata so. Ɔworɔɔ nʼahentadeɛ no guu nkyɛn baabi sɛdeɛ atamfoɔ no renhunu no.
23 Nao aikia a mĩguĩ makĩratha Mũthamaki Josia nayo, nake akĩĩra ndungata ciake atĩrĩ, “Njeheriai haha nĩ ũndũ nĩndagurario mũno.”
Nanso, atamfoɔ agyantofoɔ no too bɛmma ma ɛwɔɔ ɔhene Yosia, piraa no. Ɔteaam frɛɛ ne mmarima sɛ, “Momfa me mfiri akono ha, ɛfiri sɛ, mapira pira bɔne.”
24 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũruta ngaari-inĩ yake ya mbaara, makĩmũhaicia ngaari-inĩ ĩngĩ okĩte nayo, makĩmũtwara Jerusalemu kũrĩa aakuĩrĩire. Nake agĩthikwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ cia maithe make, nao andũ othe a Juda na Jerusalemu makĩmũcakaĩra.
Enti, wɔyii Yosia firi ne teaseɛnam mu, de no too teaseɛnam foforɔ mu. Na wɔde no kɔɔ Yerusalem, na ɛhɔ na ɔwuiɛ. Wɔsiee no hɔ wɔ adehyeɛ amusieeɛ. Na Yuda ne Yerusalem nyinaa yɛɛ no ayie.
25 Jeremia nĩandĩkire macakaya makoniĩ Josia, na nginya ũmũthĩ aini othe arũme na andũ-a-nja nĩmaririkanaga Josia macakaya-inĩ macio. Macakaya macio magĩtuĩka mũtugo wa gwĩkagwo thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, na ũkĩandĩkwo Macakaya-inĩ.
Odiyifoɔ Yeremia too kwadwom maa Yosia, na ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ yi, nnwomtofoɔ to saa kwadwom a ɛfa ne owuo no ho no. Saa kwadwom yi abɛyɛ amanneɛ a wɔatwerɛ ahyɛ Kwadwom Nwoma mu.
26 Namo maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Josia na ciĩko ciake cia wĩrutĩri, o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ wa Jehova,
Yosia ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ ne nʼahofama sɛdeɛ Awurade mmara teɛ no,
27 na nĩmo maũndũ mothe, kuuma kĩambĩrĩria nginya mũthia, maandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli na a Juda.
firi ahyɛaseɛ kɔsi awieeɛ no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel ne Yuda Ahemfo Nwoma mu.
