2 Tantara 29
1 Ni-roapolo taoñe lim’ amby t’Iekizkia te niorotse nifehe, le nifehe roapolo taoñe sive amby e Ierosalaime ao: i Abiià ana’ i Zekarià ty tahinan-drene’e.
And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.
2 Le nanao ty fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà, manahake ze he’e nanoe’ i Davide rae’e.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
3 Ie amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ey, amy volam-baloha’ey, le sinoka’e o lalambein’ anjomba’ Iehovào vaho nisomontie’e.
And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.
4 Nampiheove’e ao o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, le natonto’e ho raik’ amy toetse mangadagadañe atiñanañey,
And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,
5 vaho nanoa’e ty hoe, Mijanjiña ahy ry nte-Levio, mampiavaha vatañe henaneo, le ampiavaho ty anjomba’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ areo vaho ondroho boak’ an-toetse miavake ao ze atao leotse.
and said to them, Hear, you Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.
6 Fa nikitro-karatiañe naho nanao haloloañe am-pihaino’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentikañe o roaentikañeo naho naforintse’ iereo naho nitoli-daharañe vaho tsinambolitio’ iereo ty fimoneña’ Iehovà.
For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.
7 Mbore narindri’ iareo o lalambein-davarangañeo naho nakipeke o failoo naho tsy nañemboke, tsy nañenga soroñe aman’ Añahare’ Israele amy toetse masiñey.
And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole burnt offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.
8 Toly ndra nifetsak’ am’ Iehoda naho am’ Ierosalaime ty haviñera’ Iehovà, le natolo’e ho fangebahebahañe naho halatsañe naho fikosihañe, manahake o isam-pihaino’ areoo.
And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as you see with your eyes.
9 Hehe te nakoròvom-pibara o roaen-tikañeo naho am-pandrohizañe añe o ana-dahintikañeo naho o anak’ ampelan-tikañeo vaho o tañanjomban-tikañeo, ty amy zay.
And, behold, your fathers have been struck with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.
10 Aa le an-troko ao henaneo ty hifañina am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, hampihankañe aman-tika i haviñera’e miforoforoy.
Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.
11 O ry anako, ko mihenekeneke henaneo; fa jinobo’ Iehovà nahareo hijohañe añatrefa’e, hiatrak’ aze naho ho mpitoro’e vaho hañembok’ ama’e.
And now be not lacking [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.
12 Niongak’ amy zao o nte-Levio, i Makate, ana’ i Amasay naho Ioele ana’ i Azarià amo ana’ o nte-Kehàteo; le amo ana’ i Merario: i Kise, ana’ i Abdý naho i Azarià ana’ Iehalelale; le amo nte-Gersoneo, Ioak’ ana’ i Zimà naho i Edene ana’ Ioake;
Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Haelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.
13 le amo ana’ i Elitsafaneo; i Simrý naho Ieiele; le amo ana’ i Asafeo; i Zekarià naho i Matanià;
And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:
14 le amo ana’ i Hemaneo; Iehiele naho i Simey; vaho amo ana’ Iedotoneo, i Semaià naho i Oziele.
and of the sons of Aeman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaisa, and Oziel.
15 Le navori’ iareo o roahalai’eo, le nañamasim-batañe vaho nimoak’ ao, ty amy lili’ i mpanjakay ty amo tsara’ Iehovào, hañalio ty anjomba’ Iehovà.
And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.
16 Nizilik’ amy toetse añate’ i anjomba’ Iehovày o mpisoroñeo, hañalio aze, le nakareñe ze fonga leotse nizoe’ iereo an-kiboho’ Iehovà ao mb’ an-kiririsan’ anjomba’ Iehovà ey, le rinambe’ o nte-Levio naho nandese’e mb’ an-torahan-Kidrone añe.
And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.
17 Aa ie niorotse nampiavake amy androm-baloha’ i volam-baloha’eiy, le pok’ amy lavaranga’ Iehovày iereo amy androm-pahavalo’ i volañeiy; le valo andro ty nampiavahe’ iereo ty anjomba’ Iehovà; vaho nifonire’ iareo amy andro faha folo-eneñ’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’eiy.
And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].
18 Aa le niheo mb’am’ Iekizkia mpanjaka mb’eo iereo, nanao ty hoe: Fa niliove’ay iaby ty anjomba’ Iehovà naho i kitrelim-pisoroñañey naho o fana’e iabio naho i lataba’ o mofo-piatrekeoy vaho o fana’e iabio.
And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole burnt offering, and its vessels, and the table of show-bread, and its vessels;
19 Mbore nivaoe’ay naho navahe’ay o fanake iaby nahifi’ i Ahkazeo, ie nanao haloloañe amy fifehea’ey; le oniño t’ie fa aolo’ i kitreli’ Iehovày.
and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
20 Nañaleñaleñe t’Iekizkia, mpanjaka nanontoñe o roandria’ i rovaio vaho nionjomb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo,
And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
21 le ninday bania fito naho añondrilahy fito naho vik’ añondry fito vaho oselahy fito ho fañeferan-kakeo’ i fifeheañey naho i toetse masiñey vaho Iehodà. Le linili’e o mpisoroñeo, o ana’ i Aharoneo, t’ie hengaeñe amy kitreli’ Iehovày.
And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.
22 Aa le linenta’ iareo i bania rey naho rinambe’ o mpisoroñeo ty lio’e, le nadasi’ iereo amy kitreliy; le linenta’ iereo i añondrilahy rey naho nadasi’ iereo amy kitrelio ty lio’e; linenta’ iareo ka i vik’añondry rey vaho nadasi’ iareo amy kitreliy ty lio’e.
And they killed the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they killed the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they killed the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.
23 Le nañarivoe’ iereo i oselahy rey ho ami’ty fañeferan-kakeo, añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho i fivoriy, le nanampeza’ iareo fitañe;
And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.
24 naho linenta’ o mpisoroñeo le nanao fañeferan-kakeo ambone’ i kitreliy amy lio’ey, hijebañañe Israele iaby; fa linili’ i mpanjakay te hanoeñe ho a Israele iaby i soroñey naho i fañeferan-kakeoy.
And the priests killed them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole burnt offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel.
25 Le nampijohañe’e añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao o nte-Levio reketse fikontsañañe naho jejo-bory vaho marovany ty amy lili’ i Davidey naho i Gade mpioni’ i mpanjakay naho i Natane mpitokiy vaho toe lili’ Iehovà añamo mpitoki’eo.
And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.
26 Aa le nijohañe eo o nte-Levio rekets’ o fititiha’ i Davideo naho o mpisoroñeo reketse trompetra.
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
27 Le linili’ Iekizkia te hengaeñe ambone’ i kitreliy i soroñey. Aa ie namototse i fisoroñañey, le niorotse ka ty fisaboañe Iehovà an-trompetra mitraoke amo fititiha’ i Davide mpanjaka’ Israeleo.
And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole burnt offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole burnt offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.
28 Le nibaboke i fivory iabiy naho nitakasy o mpisaboo naho nitioke o mpampipopò trompetrao; vaho nitolom-panao izay ampara’ te niheneke i fisoroñañey.
And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole burnt sacrifice had been completely offered.
29 Ie nifonitse i fañengañey, le nidròdreke vaho niambane i mpanjakay naho o mpiama’e iabio.
And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.
30 Mbore linili’ Iekizkia mpanjaka naho o roandriañeo o nte-Levio ty hitakasy am’ Iehovà amo onin-tsabo’ i Davide naho i Asafe mpioniñeo. Le nisabo fandrengeañe an-kaehake naho niandaly vaho nitalaho.
And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.
31 Nampigadoñe’ Iekizkia, ami’ty hoe: Fa navahañe am’ Iehovà nahareo henaneo; mañarinea le mibanabanà soroñe naho engam-pañandriañañe mb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà. Aa le nanese soroñe naho engam-pañandriañañe i fivoriy; vaho ninday engan-koroañe o matarikeo.
Then Ezekias answered and said, Now you have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole burnt offerings.
32 Aa ty ia’ o soroñe nendese’ o fivorio mb’eoo, le bania fitompolo naho añondrilahy zato vaho vik’ añondry roanjato; hene hisoroñañe am’ Iehovà.
And the number of the whole burnt offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole burnt offering to the Lord.
33 Le o enga navaheñeo: añombe enen-jato naho añondry telo-arivo.
And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.
34 Fe tsy niampe ty mpisoroñe hañolitse o hisoroñañeo, aa le nimbae’ o nte-Levy roahalahi’ iareoo, ampara’ te niheneke i fitoloñañey, ampara’ te nañamasim-batañe o mpisoroñe ila’eo; amy te nilombolombo’ o mpisoroñeo o nte-Levio ami’ty havañonan’ arofo nampiavahem-batañe.
But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole burnt offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.
35 Nimaro o nisoroñañe reketse i saboran’ engam-panintsiñañeio naho o enga-rano ho amo nisoroñañeo. Aa le nijadoñe soa ty fitoroñañe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao,
And the whole burnt offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole burnt sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.
36 naho nandia taroba t’Iekizkia naho ondaty iabio, ty amy nampihentseñan’ Añahare ho a’ondatio; amy te nitojeha i nanoeñey.
And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
