1 A PAU ae la keia mau mea a pau, hele iwaho ka Iseraela a pau i hoakoakoaia ma na kulanakauhale o ka Iuda, a kuipalu iho la i na kii, a oki liilii i na kii no Asetarota. a wawahi i na wahi kiekie, a me na kuahu ma Iuda a pau, a me Beniamina, a me Eperaima no hoi, a me Manase, a pau ae la ia mau mea. Alaila, hoi na mamo a Iseraela a pau, kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona aina hooili, i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale iho.
Kwathi konke lokho sekuphelile, wonke amaIsrayeli atholakalayo aphuma aya emizini yakoJuda, adiliza izinsika eziyizithombe, agamulela phansi izixuku, aphosela phansi indawo eziphakemeyo lamalathi, akukhupha kuye wonke uJuda loBhenjamini lakoEfrayimi loManase, aze aqeda. Bonke abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebebuyela, ngulowo lalowo emfuyweni yakhe, emizini yabo.
2 A hoonoho o Hezekia i na papa o ka poe kahuna, a me na Levi, e like me ko lakou papa, o kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me kana oihana, i na kahuna a me na Levi ma ka mohaikuni a me na mohai aloha, e lawelawe, a e hoomaikai aku, a e hoolea aku ma na puka o na halelewa o Iehova.
UHezekhiya wasemisa izigaba zabapristi lamaLevi ngokwezigaba zabo, ngulowo lalowo ngokomsebenzi wakhe, abapristi lamaLevi emnikelweni wokutshiswa leminikelweni yokuthula, ukukhonza lokubonga lokudumisa emasangweni ezinkamba zeNkosi.
3 Hoomaopopo no hoi oia i kauwahi noloko mai o ka waiwai a ke alii, i mau mohaikuni, i mau mohai no ke kakahiaka, a me ke ahiahi; i mau mohai no na Sabati, a no na mahina hou, a no na ahaaina, e like me ka mea i kakauia iloko o ke kanawai o Iehova.
Lesabelo senkosi esivela emfuyweni yayo seminikelo yokutshiswa, seminikelo yokutshiswa yekuseni leyantambama, leminikelo yokutshiswa yamasabatha, leyekuthwaseni kwezinyanga, leyemikhosi emisiweyo, njengokubhaliweyo emlayweni kaJehova.
4 Olelo ia i na kanaka i ka poe i noho ma Ierusalema, e haawi aku i ka haawina o ka poe kahuna, a me na Levi i ikaika lakou ma ke kanawai o Iehova.
Wasesithi ebantwini, kubahlali beJerusalema, banike isabelo sabapristi lamaLevi, ukuze baqiniswe emlayweni weNkosi.
5 A hoolahaia keia olelo, hoonui iho la ka poe mamo a Iseraela i ka ohi mua ana o ka ai, a me ka waina, a me ka aila, a me ka meli, a me na mea a pau o ke kihapai i ohiia'i; a lawe nui mai lakou i ka hapaumi o ia mau mea a pau.
Lekusatshalalisweni kwelizwi abantwana bakoIsrayeli bengeza izithelo zokuqala zamabele, iwayini elitsha, lamafutha, loluju, lakuzo zonke izithelo zensimu; lokwetshumi kwakho konke bakuletha ngobunengi.
6 A o na mamo a Iseraela, a me ka Iuda, ka poe noho ma na kulanakauhale o Iuda, lawe mai lakou i ka hapaumi o na bipi, a me na hipa, a me ka hapaumi o na mea laa i hoolaaia ia Iehova ko lakou Akua, a waiho akoakoa lakou ia mau mea, he puu okoa no, a he puu okoa.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli loJuda ababehlala emizini yakoJuda labo basebeletha okwetshumi kwenkomo lokwezimvu lokwetshumi kwezinto ezingcwele ezazehlukaniselwe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wabo, babeka izinqumbinqumbi.
7 I ka malama ekolu, hoomaka lakou e hookumu i na puu, a i ka malama ehiku, ua hoopau lakou.
Ngenyanga yesithathu baqalisa ukubeka isisekelo sezinqumbi, langenyanga yesikhombisa baqeda.
8 Alaila, hiki mai o Hezekia, a me na alii, a ike i na puu, a hoomaikai lakou ia Iehova, a i kona poe kanaka i ka Iseraela.
UHezekhiya leziphathamandla sebefika bebona izinqumbi, bayibusisa iNkosi labantu bayo uIsrayeli.
9 Ninau o Hezekia i na kahuna a me na Levi no na puu.
UHezekhiya wasebuza abapristi lamaLevi ngalezinqumbi.
10 Hai mai o Azaria, ke kahuna nui, no ka hale o Zadoka, i mai la, Mai ka hoomaka ana mai e lawe i ka mohai iloko o ka hale o Iehova, he ai no a maona, a koe no ka nui; no ka mea, ua hoomaikai mai o Iehova i kona poe kanaka; a eia ke koena, o keia mea he nui no.
UAzariya umpristi oyinhloko yendlu kaZadoki wakhuluma laye wathi: Kusukela ekuqaleni kokulethwa kweminikelo endlini yeNkosi, kwakulokokudla lokokusutha lokokutshiya okunenginengi; ngoba iNkosi ibabusisile abantu bayo kuze kusale lokhu okunengi.
11 Alaila, kauoha o Hezekia e hoomakaukau i na keena oluna ma ka hale o Iehova: a hoomakaukau iho la lakou,
UHezekhiya wasesithi kulungiswe amakamelo endlini yeNkosi; basebewalungisa.
12 A lawe iloko no lakou me ka oiaio i na makana, a me ka hookupu hapaumi, a me na mea i hoolaaia; a o ka luna maluna o keia mau mea oia o Konania ka Levi, a o Simei o kona hoahanau ka lua.
Basebengenisa iminikelo lezingxenye zetshumi lezinto ezingcwelisiweyo ngobuqotho. Laphezu kwalokhu uKonaniya umLevi wayeyinduna, loShimeyi umfowabo engowesibili.
13 A o Iehiela, a me Azaria, a me Nahata, o Asahela a me Iremota, a me Iozabada, o Eliela, a me Isemakia, a o Mahata, a me Benaia oia ka poe luna, malalo iho o Konania, a me Simei, kona hoahanau, ma ke kanawai o Hezekia ke alii, a me Azaria, ka luna o ka hale o ke Akua.
LoJehiyeli loAzaziya loNahathi loAsaheli loJerimothi loJozabadi loEliyeli loIsimakhiya loMahathi loBhenaya babengababonisi ngaphansi kwesandla sikaKonaniya loShimeyi umfowabo, ngomlayo kaHezekhiya inkosi loAzariya umbusi wendlu kaNkulunkulu.
14 A o Kore ke keiki a Imena o ka Levi, ka mea kiai puka ma ka hikina, maluna oia o na makana no ke Akua, e haawi i na makana no Iehova a me na mea i hoolaa loa ia.
Njalo uKore indodana kaImna umLevi, umgcini wesango ngasempumalanga, wayephezu kweminikelo yesihle kaNkulunkulu ukupha iminikelo yeNkosi lezinto ezingcwelengcwele.
15 A mahope ona, o Edena, a me Miniamina, a me Iesua, a me Semaia, a me Amaria, a me Sikania, ma na kulanakauhale o na kahuna, e haawi maopopo na ko lakou poe hoahanau, ma na papa, e like me ka mea nui, pela no ka mea uuku.

16 A okoa ka haawi ana ma ko lakou kuauhau mai ka poe kane o na makahiki ekolu, a maluna ae, a hiki i ka poe a pau i komo iloko o ka hale o Iehova, i wahi mea i kela la keia la, no ko lakou lawelawe ana ma ka lakou mau oihana e like me ko lakou mau papa;
Ngaphandle kwababalwe ngezizukulwana zabesilisa, kusukela koleminyaka emithathu kusiya phezulu, wonke ongena endlini yeNkosi, ngomsebenzi wosuku ngosuku lwawo, enkonzweni yabo, kumfanelo zabo, ngezigaba zabo.
17 A me ke kuauhau o na kahuna e like me ko ka hale o ko lakou poe kupuna, a i na Levi, mai ka makahiki iwakalua a oi aku, ma ka lakou mau oihana, a me ko lakou mau papa:
Lalabo ababalwa ngezizukulwana zabapristi ngendlu yaboyise, lamaLevi, kusukela koleminyaka engamatshumi amabili kusiya phezulu, kumfanelo zabo, ngezigaba zabo.
18 A me ke kuauhau o ka lakou poe keiki liilii, a me ka lakou mau wahine, a me ka lakou poe keikikane, a me ka lakou poe kaikamahine, i ka ahakanaka a pau; no ka mea, e like me ka mea mau ia lakou, huikala iho la lakou ia lakou iho:

19 A i ka poe mamo a Aarona ke kahuna ma na kula, kahi e pili ana i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, ma kela kulanakauhale, keia kulanakauhale, o na kanaka i kapaia ko lakou mau inoa, e haawi i na makana na ka poe kane a pau o na kahuna, a na na Levi a pau i kuauhauia.
Lemadodaneni kaAroni, abapristi, emasimini amadlelo emizi yabo, kuwo wonke umuzi ngomuzi, amadoda ayebizwe ngamabizo, ukunika izabelo kubo bonke abesilisa phakathi kwabapristi, labo bonke ababalwe ngezizukulwana phakathi kwamaLevi.
20 Pela i hana'i o Hezekia ma Iuda a pau, hana maikai no ia, a me ka pololei, a me ka oiaio imua o Iehova, kona Akua.
Wasesenza njalo uHezekhiya kuJuda wonke; wenza okuhle lokulungileyo lokuqotho phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe.
21 I na hana a pau ana i hoomaka'i, i mea e hookauwa aku ai na ka hale o ke Akua, a me ke kanawai, a me ke kauoha, e imi aku i kona Akua, me kona naau a pau oia kana i hana'i, a ua kokuaia mai.
Emsebenzini wonke-ke awuqalisayo enkonzweni yendlu kaNkulunkulu, lemlayweni lemthethweni, ukudinga uNkulunkulu wakhe, wakwenza ngenhliziyo yakhe yonke, waphumelela.
