1 Hagi ana maka musenkase'zamo'ma vagamaregeno'a, Israeli vahe'ma anampima mani'naza vahe'mo'za atirami'za Juda rankumatamimpi vu'za havi anumzante'ma mono'ma hunentaza zafaramine, Asera havi anumzamofo amema'ama zafare'ma antre'za tro hunte'neza mono'ma hunentaza zafaraminena maka Juda mopafine, Benzameni mopafine, Efraemi mopafine, Manase mopafima, havi anumzama mono'ma hunentaza itane, agonafima havi anumzantema mono'ma hunentaza kumatmima me'neana ana maka taganavazi atre'naze. Ana hute'za maka Israeli vahe'mo'za ete nozmima me'nea rankuma zamirega vu'naze.
After the festival ended, the Israelis who were there went to all the towns in Judah and smashed the stones/pillars [for worshiping idols], and cut down the poles [for worshiping the goddess] Asherah. They destroyed the shrines on the hilltops and the altars [of Baal] throughout the areas where the tribes of Judah and Benjamin lived, and also in the areas of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh. After destroying all of them, they returned to their own towns.
2 Hagi pristi vahe'mo'zane Livae vahe'mo'zama Ra Anumzamofo mono nonkumapima ufre kafaraminte'ma eri'zama eri'nagura, Hesekai'a refko huno Kresramanama vu eri'zane, arimpa fru ofama hu eri'zane, kafante'ma manine'za susu hu'za zagame'ma hu eri'zana kevure kevure zamitere hu'ne.
Hezekiah divided the priests and [other] descendants of Levi into groups. He appointed some of the groups to offer sacrifices that would be completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. He appointed some groups to do other work at the temple: some to lead the people in their worship, some to thank Yahweh, and some to sing songs to praise to Yahweh at the gates of the temple.
3 Hagi kinagane nanterane, maka mani fru hu Sabati knare'ene, kasefa ikante'ene, Ra Anumzamofo kasegefima huno ne'zama kreta neneta muse hugahazema hu'nea knare'enema Kresramanama vu zana kini ne' Hesekai'a agra'a afu keginafintira zami'ne.
The king contributed some of his own funds to buy animals that would be sacrificed in the morning and in the evening of each day, and on the Sabbath days, to celebrate the new moons, and during the other feasts, according to what was written in the laws [that Yahweh gave to Moses].
4 Hagi kini ne'mo'a Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahetminkura huno, pristi vahe'ene Livae vahe'enena, ana ne'zana zamigahazema hu'nea kante anteta ne'zana eme zaminke'za nene'za, Ra Anumzamofo kasegefima hu'neaza hu'za zamagu'areti hu'za eri'zana eriho.
Hezekiah told the people living in Jerusalem to give to the priests and the other descendants of Levi the portions [of meat] that should be given to them, in order that they could devote all their time to obeying the laws of Yahweh.
5 Hagi Hesekaia'ma hia nanekema Israeli vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za ese ne'zama hozafima nenama hu'nea ne'zana tusi ne'za eri'za e'naze.
As soon as he told that to the people, they generously gave the first part of their harvest of grain, and the first part of the new wine [that they produced], and [olive] oil and honey, and of the crops that grew in their fields. They brought [to the temple] a tenth of all their crops.
6 Hagi Israeli vahetamine Juda vahetamimo'zama Juda rankumatamimpima nemaniza vahe'mo'za bulimakao afuzmine, sipisipi afuzmine hampriza nevazageno, 10nima hia bulimakao afutamine sipisipi afutaminena avre'za e'naze. Ana nehu'za Ra Anumzana zamagri Anumzamofonte'ma eri ruotgema hu'nea zantamina hampriza nevazageno 10nima hia zantamina eri'za eme kevure kevure antazageno agonagna huno hihi huno mareri'ne.
The men of Israel and Judah who were living in various towns in Judah also brought a tenth of their cattle and sheep and goats, and a tenth of other things that they had dedicated to Yahweh their God, and they piled all those things in heaps.
7 Hagi namba 3 ikante agafa hu'za ana ne'zana eri atru hu'za nevazageno, 7ni ikante ome vagare'naze.
They started to do that in May and finished doing it in September.
8 Ana'ma nehazageno Hesekai'ene vugota kva vahe'mo'zanema eme kazama ana neza kevuramimo'ma agonagna'ma huno mareri'nege'za, Ra Anumzamofona agia erisga nehu'za, asomu kea Israeli vahetmina huzmante'naze.
When Hezekiah and his officials saw the heaps, they praised Yahweh and [requested God to] bless the people.
9 Ana huteno Hesekai'a pristi vahetamine Livae vahetaminena ana ne'za kevuraminkura zamagenoka huno, Igati ama ne'za kevuramina eri atru hu'naze?
But Hezekiah asked the priests and other descendants of Levi, “Why are these heaps of things here?”
10 Higeno Zadoku nagapinti ugagota pristi ne' Azaraia'a kenona huzmanteno ne'zama eri'za e'naza knareti'ma eno amare'ma ehanati'neana, nezantimo'a hakare higeta nenonkeno rama'a ne'zamo'a amne aviteno me'ne. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a tusi'a zampi Agra'a vahetmina asomura huzmante huno hu'ne.
Then Azariah the [Supreme] Priest, a descendant of Zadok, replied, “Since the time that the people started to bring their offerings to the temple, we have had even more food than we need. This has happened because Yahweh has greatly blessed our fellow Israelis, with the result that all this is left over [after we priests and other descendants of Levi took all that we need]!”
11 Hagi Hesekai'a kave'ma ante nontamina, Ra Anumzamofo nompi retro hiho hige'za, zamagra retro hunte'naze.
Then Hezekiah ordered that they should prepare storerooms in the temple. So they did that.
12 Ana hige'za vahe'mo'za kentahiza ne'zana hamprizageno 10nima hia ne'za kevuramine, eri ruotgema hu'naza ofaraminena eri'za ana nompi eme ante'naze. Hagi ana maka zantmintera Livae nagapinti ne' Konani vugota huno kva mani'neno kegava higeno, nefu Semei agri amefi'a kva mani'ne.
Then they brought into the storerooms all the tithes and offerings and the things dedicated to Yahweh [which the people had brought]. One of the descendants of Levi whose name was Conaniah was in charge of those things, and his [younger] brother Shimei was his assistant.
13 Hagi kini ne' Hesekai'ene Anumzamofo mono nonte kva ne' Azariake'ma huzmante'naza kante ante'za Konanine nefu, Simeinema zanaza hu'zama ana nompima eri'zama eri'naza vahetmina, Jehieli'ma, Azazia'ma, Nahati'ma, Asaheli'ma, Jerimoti'ma, Jozabati'ma, Elieli'ma, Ismakia'ma, Mahati'ma, Benaia'e.
Those two men supervised Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath and Benaiah while they did the work. They were appointed by King Hezekiah; Azariah was in charge of [everything that was done in] the temple.
14 Hagi Livae ne' Imna nemofo Kore'a, zage hanati kaziga kuma kafante kva hu'neno vahe'mo'zama zamagra'a zamavesite'ma Anumzamofonte'ma eri'za aza ofane, Ra Anumzamofoma eme ami'za zantamine, eri ruotge hu'neza eri'za aza ofanena kegava hu'neno refko huno pristi vahe'ene Livae vahera zami'ne.
Kore the son of Imnah, another descendant of Levi, who guarded the east gate of the temple, was in charge of the offerings to God that were made voluntarily. He distributed to the priests and [other] descendants of Levi the offerings and other things that were dedicated to Yahweh.
15 Hagi Edeni'ma, Miniamini'ma, Jesua'ma, Semaia'ma, Amaraia'ma, Sekeniaki hu'za Korena aza hu'za ana ofaramima eri'zama azana pristi vahe'ma nemaniza ran kumatamimpima nemaniza zamafuhe'ina, ra vahetetima vuno mofavrere'ma vu'neana, ana ne'zantamina refko hu'za zamente zmente zamitere hu'naze.
Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah and Shecaniah faithfully assisted him in the towns where the priests lived. They distributed those things to the groups of their fellow priests; they distributed them to everyone, from the youngest to the oldest.
16 Ra Anumzamofo nompima eri'zama zamige'za eri'zama eneri'za vahera ana zantamina refko hu'za maka 3'a kafuma hu'nea ne' mofavreramintetima mareri anagamuma atre'nea venenema zamagima avontafepima krente'nea vahetmina ana ne'zana refko hu'za zamitere hu'naze.
They also distributed things to the males who were at least 30 years old, those whose names were written on the scrolls where lists of family names were written. They were males who [were allowed to] enter the temple to perform their tasks/work each day, the tasks that each group had been assigned to do.
17 Hagi pristi vahetmimofo zamagima kre'nazana, nagate nagate negre'za 20'a kafuma agatere'naza Livae vahetmimofo zamagia eri'zama zamiterema hu'nere zamagi'a krentetere hu'ne.
The names of the priests were on the scrolls where their clans’ names were written. They also distributed things to groups of [other] descendants of Levi, those who were at least 20 years old.
18 Hagi ana kva vahe'mo'za ne'one mofavrezmine, a'nezmine, ne' mofavrezmine, mofa'nezminena zamagima krenentaza avontafepina maka zamagia krente'naze. Na'ankure zamagra'a hankavetiza Anumzamofo avurera zamazeri agru hu'naze.
They included all their little children and wives and other sons and daughters whose names were on the scrolls where their clans’ names were written, because they also faithfully had dedicated themselves to Yahweh.
19 Hagi pristi vahetmima Aroni agehemo'zama ranra kumatamimofo hozafu hu mopama megagi'nea mopafima nemaniza vahe'mo'za, mago'a vahetami huhampri zamante'nege'za ne'zazmia eri'za ome zami'naze. Hagi ana ne'zana pristi nagapine, Livae nagapinema maka venenema zamagima avontafepima me'nea naga'mo'zage eri'naze.
[Hezekiah] also appointed other men to distribute portions of those offerings to the priests and other descendants of Levi who were living in the pasturelands around the towns in Judah. But they gave things only to those who were descendants of Aaron [the first Supreme Priest], whose names were on the scrolls containing the names of their clans.
20 E'inahu huno maka Juda mopafina Hezekaia'a agu'areti huno Ra Anumzana Anumzama'amofo avurera knare huno fatgo avu'ava hu'ne.
That is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah. He always faithfully did things that Yahweh his God considered to be right and good.
21 Hagi Hesekai'a agu'areti huno Anumzamofo mono nomofo eri'zana enerino, kasegea kegava nehuno, Anumzamofona avaririne. E'ina higeno maka zama hia zamo'a knare'zanke hu'ne.
In everything that he did for the worship in the temple, and as he obeyed God’s laws and commands, he tried to find out what his God wanted, and he worked energetically. So he was successful.
