And the king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.

And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.
3 El tu sisken sru soko lun leum uh, ac oru sie wulela yurin LEUM GOD lah el ac fah aksol ac liyaung ma sap ac oakwuk lal ke insial kewa ac ngunal kewa, ac el ac fah moulkin kas nukewa ma oan ke wuleang sac, oana ke simla in book sac. Ac mwet nukewa wulela in wi pac liyaung wuleang sac.
And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
4 Na Josiah el sapkin Mwet Tol Fulat Hilkiah ac mwet tol ma kasrel, oayapa mwet topang ke nien utyak nu in Tempul, elos in usla ma nukewa ma oan in Tempul sac ma tuh orekmakinyuk ke alu nu sel Baal ac nu ke god mutan Asherah ac nu ke itu uh. Tokosra el esukak ma inge nukewa likin siti uh, apkuran nu ke Infahlfal Kidron, na el sapkin in utukla apat kac nu Bethel.
And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them to Bethel.
5 El eisla orekma lun mwet tol su tokosra lun Judah elos tuh mosrwela in orek kisa ke loang lun mwet pegan in siti in acn Judah ac in acn ma oan apkuran nu Jerusalem, aok mwet tol nukewa su orek kisa nu sin Baal, nu ke faht, malem, planet, ac itu uh.
And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
6 El moklela ma sruloala ke god mutan Asherah liki Tempul, ac usla liki siti uh nu ke Infahlfal Kidron. El esukak ac tuktukya nwe ke apatla, ac sisalik yen kulyuk lun mwet uh oan we.
And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, to the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof on the graves of the children of the people.
7 El kunausla nien muta in Tempul ma orekmakinyuk sin mukul ac mutan ma eis molin kosro lalos. (Pa inge acn se mutan uh ac tolongla nuknuk oa ma orekmakinyuk nu ke alu lun Asherah.)
And he broke down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove.
8 El use mwet tol su tuh muta in siti lun Judah nu Jerusalem, ac in acn nukewa in facl sac el aktaekye loang ma elos orek kisa kac. El oayapa kunausla loang ma sriyukla nu ke alu nu ke ma sruloala in luman nani uh, ma oan apkuran nu ke mutunpot su Joshua, governor lun siti uh, el tuh orala, su oan layen lasa ke mutunpot lulap ke mwet uh ac utyak nu in siti uh.
And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba, and broke down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
9 Tia lela mwet tol inge in kulansap in Tempul, tusruktu elos ku in kang bread tia akpulol ma orekla nu sin mwet tol wialos.
Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brothers.
10 Tokosra Josiah el oayapa aktaekyala Topheth, nien alu lun mwet pegan ke Infahlfal Hinnom, tuh mwet uh in tia sang wen ku acn natulos in mwe kisa firir nu sin god Molech.
And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
11 El oayapa moklela horse ma tokosra lun Judah elos tuh kisakunla in mwe alu nu ke faht, ac el esukak chariot ma orekmakinyuk ke alu sac. (Ma inge oan ke inkul lun tempul apkuran nu ke mutunpot we, ac tia loes liki nien muta lal Nathan Melech, sie mwet pwapa fulat.)
And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12 Tokosra Josiah el kunausla loang ma tokosra lun acn Judah tuh musaela fin lohm sel Tokosra Ahaz ke inkul fulat lun tokosra, wi pac loang ma Tokosra Manasseh el tuh musaela luin kalkal luo ke Tempul. El lipikya loang inge nu ke ip srisrik, ac sisla nu Infahlfal Kidron.
And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king beat down, and broke them down from there, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
13 Josiah el akkolukyela pac loang ma Tokosra Solomon el tuh musaela kutulap in acn Jerusalem layen eir in Fineol Olive, tuh in mwe alu nu ke ma sruloala Astarte, god mutan srungayuk lun Sidon, ac Chemosh god lun acn Moab, ac Molech god lun acn Ammon.
And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.
14 Tokosra Josiah el kunausya sru eot uh nu ke ip srisrik, ac pakiya ma sruloala nukewa ke god mutan Asherah, na el afunla acn ma inge tu we meet ke srin mwet.
And he broke in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Josiah el oayapa kunausya nien alu in Bethel ma musaiyukla sel Tokosra Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su tuh kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk. Josiah el rakinya loang sac, kunausya eot kac nu ke ip srisrik, ac tuktukya nwe ke mokutkuti. El oayapa esukak ma sruloala kacl Asherah.
Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he broke down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove.
16 Na Josiah el ngetot ngetma nwe liyauk kutu kulyuk ma oan fin inging, ac El sap in pukpukyak sri kac, ac isisyak fin loang ah. El oru lumah se inge in aktaekyala loang sac, ac oru ma mwet palu tuh palyeak ke pacl loeloes meet ah, ke pacl in kufwa se ma Tokosra Jeroboam el tu pe loang sac. Tokosra Josiah el ngetnget nwe liyauk kulyuk se lun mwet palu se ma tuh palyeak ma inge.
And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchers that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchers, and burned them on the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.
17 El siyuk, “Lun su kulyuk se ingan?” Na mwet Bethel elos topuk ac fahk, “Ma lun mwet palu se ma tuku Judah me, ac palye ma kom oru nu ke loang se inge uh.”
Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulcher of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that you have done against the altar of Bethel.
18 Na Josiah el fahk, “Filiyana in oan. Sri kacl an ac tia wi mokleyuk.” Ouinge sri kacl ah tiana mokleyuk, ac tia pac mokleyuk sri ke mwet palu se ma tuku Samaria me.
And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
19 In siti lun Israel nukewa, Tokosra Josiah el rakinya nien alu nukewa lun mwet pegan su tuh musala sin tokosra lun Israel ac akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD. El oru nu ke loang nukewa ingan oana ma el tuh oru in acn Bethel.
And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.
20 El uniya mwet tol nukewa lun mwet pegan fin loang ma elos tuh orek kisa kac, ac el esukak srin mwet uh fin loang inge nukewa. Na el folokla nu Jerusalem.
And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there on the altars, and burned men’s bones on them, and returned to Jerusalem.
21 Tokosra Josiah el sapkin mwet uh in oru akfulat lun Kufwen Alukela in akfulatye LEUM GOD lalos, oana ma simla in book in wuleang.
And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover to the LORD your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.
22 Wangin sie Kufwen Alukela akfulatyeyuk oana kufwa se inge sin kutena tokosra lun Israel ku lun Judah oe in pacl se ma mwet nununku elos tuh leumi mutunfacl sac nwe misenge.
Surely there was not held such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
23 Ouinge, Kufwen Alukela tufahna sifilpa akfulatyeyuk in acn Jerusalem, ke yac aksingoul oalkosr ma Tokosra Josiah el leum.
But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was held to the LORD in Jerusalem.
24 In akkeye ma sap su simla in book se ma Mwet Tol Fulat Hilkiah el tuh konauk in Tempul, Tokosra Josiah el orani mwet sramsram nu sin inut, mwet susfa, ma sruloala, mwe alyalu srisrik in lohm sin mwet, ac kutena ma saya ma mwet pegan elos alyalu nu kac, ac sisla ma inge nukewa liki acn Jerusalem ac liki facl Judah nufon.
Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.
25 Wangin sie tokosra oana el oemeet me, su kulansupu LEUM GOD ke insial ac ngunal ac ku lal nufon, ac akos ma sap nukewa lal Moses, oayapa wangin pac sie tokol oana el.
And like to him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
26 Tusruktu ke sripen ma koluk nukewa Tokosra Manasseh el tuh oru meet, kasrkusrak lulap lun LEUM GOD lain Judah srakna oan ac soenna wanginla.
Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him with.
27 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga ac oru nu sin Judah oana ke nga tuh oru nu sin Israel: Nga ac lusla mwet Judah liki ye mutuk, ac nga ac sisla acn Jerusalem, siti se nga tuh sulela, oayapa Tempul, acn se su nga tuh fahk mu mwet uh in alu nu sik we.”
And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
28 Ma nukewa saya ma Tokosra Josiah el tuh orala, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Judah.]
Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 Ke pacl ma Josiah el tuh tokosra, Tokosra Neco lun Egypt el kol un mwet mweun lal som nwe ke Infacl Euphrates in tuh kasrel Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria. Tokosra Josiah el tuh srike in sikulya mwet mweun lun Egypt e Megiddo, tuh pa anwuki el ke mweun sac.
In his days Pharaohnechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
30 Mwet pwapa fulat lal elos filiya manol fin chariot soko ac folokunla nu Jerusalem, ac pukpuki el ke inkulyuk lun tokosra. Mwet Judah elos sulella Joahaz wen natul Josiah, ac mosrwella elan tokosra.
And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulcher. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s stead.
31 Joahaz el yac longoul tolu ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke malem tolu. Nina kial pa Hamutal acn natul Jeremiah, su mwet in siti Libnah.
Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32 El fahsr tukun srikasrak koluk lun mwet matu lal somla, ac oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 Pacl in leum lal safla ke pacl se Tokosra Neco lun Egypt el sruokilya ac kaprilya in siti Riblah in facl Hamath. Tokosra Neco el sap tuh facl Judah in moli takma nu sel ke paun itkosr tausin lumfoko ke silver, ac paun itngoul limekosr ke gold.
And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
34 Tokosra Neco el sraklalak Eliakim, wen natul Josiah, elan tokosrala lun Judah in aolul Josiah, ac ekulla inel Eliakim nu ke Jehoiakim. Tokosra Neco el usalla Joahaz nu Egypt, ac Joahaz el misa we.
And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there.
35 Tokosra Jehoiakim el eisani mani in tax sin mwet uh fal nu ke kasrup lun kais sie, in orala lupan mani se ma tokosra Egypt el sap in orekeni nu ke takma.
And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his taxation, to give it to Pharaohnechoh.
36 Jehoiakim el yac longoul limekosr ke el tokosrala lun Judah, ac el leum in Jerusalem ke yac singoul sie. Nina kial pa Zebidah acn natul Pedaiah, sie mwet in siti srisrik Rumah.
Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 Jehoiakim el oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD, oana ouiya koluk lun mwet matu lal somla.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.
