2 Tarihi 34
1 Yosiya yana da shekara goma sha takwas sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara talatin da ɗaya.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.
2 Ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji ya kuma yi tafiya a hanyoyin kakansa Dawuda, ba tare da juye dama ko hagu ba.
And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walked in the ways of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.
3 A shekara ta takwas ta mulkinsa, yayinda yake matashi, sai ya fara neman Allah na kakansa Dawuda. A shekara ta goma sha biyunsa ya fara tsabtacce Yahuda da Urushalima daga masujadan kan tudu, ginshiƙan Ashera, sassaƙaƙƙun gumaka da kuma siffofin da aka yi zubi.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father. And in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the Asherim, and the graven images, and the molten images.
4 A ƙarƙashin umarninsa aka rurrushe bagadan Ba’al, ya kuma tumɓuke bagadan ƙona turare waɗanda suke a bisansu, ya farfashe ginshiƙan Ashera da kuma sassaƙaƙƙun siffofi. Ya ragargaza waɗannan kucu-kucu, ya barbaɗa su a kan kaburburan waɗanda suka miƙa musu hadayu.
And they broke down the altars of the Baalim in his presence, and the sun-images that were on high above them he hewed down, and the Asherim, and the graven images, and the molten images, he broke in pieces, and made dust of them, and strewed it upon the graves of those who had sacrificed to them.
5 Ya ƙone ƙasusuwan firistocin gumaka a kan bagaden da a dā suke miƙa hadayunsu, ta haka ya tsabtacce Yahuda da Urushalima.
And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars, and purged Judah and Jerusalem.
6 Ya yi haka cikin garuruwan Manasse, Efraim da Simeyon, har zuwa Naftali, da kuma cikin kangwayen kewayensu,
And so also in the cities of Manasseh and Ephraim and Simeon, even to Naphtali, in their ruins round about.
7 ya farfashe bagadai da ginshiƙan Ashera; ya niƙa gumaka suka zama gari, ya kuma yayyanka dukan bagadan turare kucu-kucu ko’ina a Isra’ila. Sa’an nan ya koma Urushalima.
And he broke down the altars, and beat the Asherim and the graven images into powder, and hewed down all the sun-images throughout all the land of Israel, and returned to Jerusalem.
8 A shekara ta goma sha takwas ta mulkin Yosiya, ya tsarkake ƙasar da haikalin, ya aiki Shafan ɗan Azaliya da Ma’asehiya mai mulkin birni, tare da Yowa ɗan Yowahaz, marubuci, su gyara haikalin Ubangiji Allah.
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of Jehovah his God.
9 Suka tafi wurin Hilkiya babban firist suka ba shi kuɗin da aka kawo cikin haikalin Allah, wanda Lawiyawa masu tsaron ƙofofi sun tattara daga mutanen Manasse, Efraim da dukan raguwar Isra’ila da kuma daga dukan mutanen Yahuda da Benyamin da kuma mazaunan Urushalima.
And they came to Hilkiah the high priest, and delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites, the keepers of the threshold, had gathered by the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and by all the remnant of Israel, and by all Judah and Benjamin, and by the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
10 Sa’an nan suka danƙa su ga mutanen da aka naɗa su lura da aiki a kan haikalin Ubangiji. Waɗannan mutane ne suke biyan ma’aikatan da suka gyara suka kuma mai da haikalin.
And they delivered it into the hand of the workmen who had the oversight of the house of Jehovah. And the workmen who labored in the house of Jehovah gave it to mend and repair the house.
11 Suka kuma ba da kuɗi ga kafintoci da magina don su sayi sassaƙaƙƙun duwatsu, da katakai don yin tsaiko da tankar ginin da sarakunan Yahuda suka bari yă fāɗi ya zama kango.
Even to the carpenters and to the builders they gave it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to make beams for the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
12 Mutanen fa suka yi aiki da aminci. Shugabanninsu, su ne Yahat da Obadiya, Lawiyawa zuriyar Merari da Zakariya da Meshullam, zuriyar Kohat. Dukan Lawiyawa waɗanda suke gwanaye a kayan kiɗi,
And the men did the work faithfully. And the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward, and others of the Levites, all who were skilful with instruments of music.
13 sun lura da ma’aikata, suka kuma lura da dukan masu aiki daga aiki zuwa aiki. Waɗansu Lawiyawan su ne marubuta, magatakarda da kuma masu tsaron ƙofofi.
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and set forward all who did the work in every manner of service. And of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.
14 Yayinda suke fitar da kuɗin da aka kai cikin haikalin Ubangiji, sai Hilkiya firist ya sami Littafin Dokar Ubangiji da aka bayar ta wurin Musa.
And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of Jehovah, Hilkiah the priest found the book of the law of Jehovah given by Moses.
15 Hilkiya ya ce wa Shafan magatakarda, “Na sami Littafin Doka a cikin haikalin Ubangiji.” Sai ya ba wa Shafan.
And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.
16 Sa’an nan Shafan ya ɗauki littafin zuwa wurin sarki, ya faɗa masa, “Manyan ma’aikatanka suna yin kome da aka sa su.
And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and moreover brought back word to the king, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they are doing.
17 Mun ɗauke kuɗin da an ajiye a haikalin Ubangiji muka ba wa masu aiki da waɗanda suke lura da su.”
And they have emptied out the money that was found in the house of Jehovah, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and into the hand of the workmen.
18 Sa’an nan Shafan magatakarda ya sanar da sarki ya ce, “Hilkiya firist ya ba ni wani littafi.” Sai Shafan ya karanta daga cikinsa a gaban sarki.
And Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me. And Shaphan read therein before the king.
19 Da sarki ya ji kalmomin Doka, sai ya yage rigunansa.
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he tore his clothes.
20 Ya ba da waɗannan umarnai ga Hilkiya, Ahikam ɗan Shafan, Abdon ɗan Mika, Shafan magatakarda da kuma Asahiya mai hidimar sarki.
And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,
21 Ya ce, “Ku tafi ku nemi nufin Ubangiji saboda ni da kuma saboda raguwa a Isra’ila da Yahuda game da abin da aka rubuta a wannan littafin da aka samu. Fushin Ubangiji mai girma ne da aka zuba a kanmu domin kakanninmu ba su kiyaye maganar Ubangiji ba; ba su aikata bisa ga dukan abin da yake a rubuce a wannan littafi ba.”
Go ye, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for those who are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found. For great is the wrath of Jehovah that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of Jehovah, to do according to all that is written in this book.
22 Hilkiya tare da waɗanda sarki ya aika, suka tafi suka yi magana da annabiya Hulda, wadda take matar Shallum ɗan Tokhat ɗan Hasra, mai tsaron wurin ajiyar riguna. Tana zama a Urushalima, a Yanki na Biyu.
So Hilkiah, and those whom the king had commanded, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter), and they spoke to her to that effect.
23 Sai ta ce musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce faɗa wa mutumin da ya aike ku gare ni,
And she said to them, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: Tell ye the man who sent you to me,
24 ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce zai kawo masifa a wannan wuri da mutanensa, dukan la’anar da aka rubuta a cikin littafin da aka karanta a gaban sarkin Yahuda.
Thus says Jehovah, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of it, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah.
25 Domin sun yashe ni suka kuma ƙone turare wa waɗansu alloli, suka tsokane ni in yi fushi ta wurin dukan abin da hannuwansu suka yi, fushina zai zuba a kan wannan wuri, ba kuma za a kwantar da shi ba.’
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands. Therefore my wrath is poured out upon this place, and it shall not be quenched.
26 Ku faɗa wa sarkin Yahuda, wanda ya aike ku ku nemi nufin Ubangiji, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila yake cewa game da kalmomin da ka ji.
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus ye shall say to him, Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: As concerning the words which thou have heard,
27 Domin zuciyarka mai tuba ce, ka kuma ƙasƙantar da kanka a gaban Allah sa’ad da ka ji abin da ya yi magana a kan wannan wuri da mutanensa, domin kuma ka ƙasƙantar da kanka a gabana, ka yage rigunanka ka kuma yi kuka a gabana, na ji ka, in ji Ubangiji.
because thy heart was tender, and thou humbled thyself before God when thou heard his words against this place, and against the inhabitants of it, and have humbled thyself before me, and have torn thy clothes, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, says Jehovah.
28 Yanzu zan tara ka da kakanninka, za a kuma binne ka cikin salama. Idanunka ba za su ga dukan masifar da zan kawo a kan wannan wuri da kuma a kan waɗanda suke zama a nan ba.’” Sai suka kai amsar wa sarki.
Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shall be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of it. And they brought back word to the king.
29 Sai sarki ya kira dukan dattawan Yahuda da Urushalima.
Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 Ya haura zuwa haikalin Ubangiji tare da mutanen Yahuda, mutanen Urushalima, firistoci da Lawiyawa, dukan mutane daga ƙarami zuwa babba. Ya karanta dukan kalmomin Littafin Alkawari wanda aka samu a cikin haikalin Ubangiji a kunnuwansu.
And the king went up to the house of Jehovah, and all the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people, both great and small. And he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of Jehovah.
31 Sai sarkin ya miƙe tsaye a inda yake, ya sabunta alkawari a gaban Ubangiji, don yă bi Ubangiji yă kiyaye umarnansa, ƙa’idodinsa da kuma farillansa da dukan zuciyarsa da kuma dukan ransa, ya kuma yi biyayya da kalmomin alkawarin da aka rubuta a cikin wannan littafi.
And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant that were written in this book.
32 Sa’an nan ya sa kowa a Urushalima da Benyamin ya yi alkawari ga wannan; mutanen Urushalima suka aikata wannan bisa ga alkawarin Allah, Allah na kakanninsu.
And he caused all who were found in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 Yosiya ya fitar da dukan gumakan banƙyama daga dukan yankunan Isra’ilawa, ya kuma sa dukan waɗanda suke a Isra’ila su bauta wa Ubangiji Allahnsu. Muddin ransa, ba su fasa bin Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu ba.
And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the sons of Israel, and made all who were found in Israel to serve, even to serve Jehovah their God. All his days they did not depart from following Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
