1 Yosiya yana da shekara takwas sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara talatin da ɗaya a Urushalima. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Yedida’yar Adahiya; mutuniyar Bozkat.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
2 Ya aikata abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji ya kuma bi dukan gurbin kakansa Dawuda, bai bauɗe hagu ko dama ba.
He did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.
3 A shekara ta goma sha takwas ta mulkinsa, Sarki Yosiya ya aiki Shafan ɗan Azaliya, ɗan Meshullam, magatakarda, zuwa haikalin Ubangiji. Ya ce,
It happened in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
4 “Ka haura zuwa wurin Hilkiya babban firist ka sa yă shirya kuɗin da aka kawo a haikalin Ubangiji, wanda masu tsaron ƙofa suka tara daga mutane.
"Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may melt down the silver which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people.
5 Ka sa su danƙa su a hannun waɗanda aka zaɓa don biyan ma’aikatan da suka yi gyara a haikalin Ubangiji,
Let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of the LORD; and let them give it to the workmen who are in the house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,
6 wato, kafintoci, da magina, da masu tsara gini. Ka kuma sa su sayi katakai da sassaƙaƙƙun duwatsu don a gyara haikalin.
to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house.
7 Amma ba sa bukata su ba da bayanin kuɗin da aka danƙa musu domin suna aikinsu da aminci.”
However there was no accounting made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand; for they dealt faithfully."
8 Hilkiya babban firist ya ce wa Shafan magatakarda, “Na sami Littafin Doka a haikalin Ubangiji.” Sai ya ba wa Shafan, shi kuma ya karanta.
Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, "I have found the scroll of the law in the house of the LORD." Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 Sa’an nan Shafan ya koma wurin sarki ya ce masa, “Hafsoshinka sun kwashe kuɗin da suke a haikalin Ubangiji, suka ba wa masu aiki da masu lura da haikalin.”
Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, "Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of the house of the LORD."
10 Sa’an nan Shafan magatakarda ya ce wa sarki, “Hilkiya firist ya ba ni wani littafi.” Sai Shafan ya karanta shi a gaban sarki.
Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, "Hilkiah the priest has delivered a scroll to me." Shaphan read it before the king.
11 Da sarki ya ji kalmomin Littafin Doka, sai ya kece tufafinsa.
It happened, when the king had heard the words of the scroll of the law, that he tore his clothes.
12 Ya ba da waɗannan umarnai ga Hilkiya firist, da Ahikam ɗan Shafan, da Akbor ɗan Mikahiya, da Shafan magatakarda, da kuma Asahiya mai hidimar sarki, ya ce,
The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king's servant, saying,
13 “Ku je, ku nemi nufin Ubangiji saboda ni da saboda jama’a da kuma saboda dukan Yahuda game da abin da wannan littafi da aka samo ya ƙunsa. Fushin Ubangiji mai girma ne a kanmu domin kakanninmu ba su kiyaye kalmomin littafin nan ba; ba su aikata bisa ga abin da yake a rubuce game da mu ba.”
"Go inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this scroll that is found; for great is the wrath of the LORD that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this scroll, to do according to all that which is written concerning us."
14 Sai Hilkiya firist, da Ahikam, Akbor, da Shafan, da kuma Asahiya suka je don su yi magana da annabiya Hulda, matan Shallum ɗan Tikba, ɗan Harhas, mai ajiyar tufafi. Tana zama a Urushalima, a Yanki na Biyu.
So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her.
15 Sai ta ce musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ku faɗa wa mutumin da ya aike ku wurina,
She said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: 'Tell the man who sent you to me,
16 ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, zan kawo masifa wa wannan wuri da kuma wa kan mutanen wurin, bisa ga dukan abubuwan da suke a rubuce a cikin littafin da sarkin Yahuda ya karanta.
"Thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will bring disaster on this place, and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the scroll which the king of Judah has read.
17 Domin sun yashe ni suka ƙona turare wa waɗansu alloli, suka tozarta ni da dukan gumakan da hannuwansu suka sassaƙa, fushina zai yi ƙuna a kan wannan wuri, ba kuwa zai huce ba.’
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.'"
18 Ku faɗa wa sarkin Yahuda, wanda ya aike ku ku nemi nufin Ubangiji, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila yana cewa game da kalmomin da ka ji.
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, thus you shall tell him, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: 'Concerning the words which you have heard,
19 Domin zuciyarka mai tuba ce, ka kuma ƙasƙantar da kanka a gaban Ubangiji sa’ad da ka ji abin da na faɗa game da wannan wuri da mutanen wurin, cewa za su zama la’antattu da kuma kango, domin kuma ka kece tufafinka, ka kuma yi kuka a gabana, na ji ka, in ji Ubangiji.
because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before the LORD, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you,' says the LORD.
20 Saboda haka zan haɗa ka da kakanninka, za a kuma binne ka cikin salama. Idanunka kuma ba za su ga dukan wannan masifan da zan jawo wa wurin nan ba.’” Sai suka kai wa sarki abin da ta faɗa.
'Therefore look, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, neither shall your eyes see all the disaster which I will bring on this place.'"'" They brought back this message to the king.
