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.
Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
2 Le nanao ty fahiti’e am-pihaino’ Iehovà, manahake ze he’e nanoe’ i Davide rae’e.
He did that which was right in Yahweh’s eyes, according to all that David his father had done.
3 Ie amy taom-baloham-pifehea’ey, amy volam-baloha’ey, le sinoka’e o lalambein’ anjomba’ Iehovào vaho nisomontie’e.
In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of Yahweh’s house and repaired them.
4 Nampiheove’e ao o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, le natonto’e ho raik’ amy toetse mangadagadañe atiñanañey,
He brought in the priests and the Levites and gathered them together into the wide place on the east,
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, “Listen to me, you Levites! Now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of Yahweh, the God of your fathers, and carry the filthiness out of the holy place.
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 were unfaithful, and have done that which was evil in Yahweh our God’s sight, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of Yahweh, and turned their backs.
7 Mbore narindri’ iareo o lalambein-davarangañeo naho nakipeke o failoo naho tsy nañemboke, tsy nañenga soroñe aman’ Añahare’ Israele amy toetse masiñey.
Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered 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.
Therefore Yahweh’s wrath was on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has delivered them to be tossed back and forth, to be an astonishment 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.
For behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.
10 Aa le an-troko ao henaneo ty hifañina am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, hampihankañe aman-tika i haviñera’e miforoforoy.
Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with Yahweh, the God of Israel, that his fierce anger may turn away 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.
My sons, don’t be negligent now; for Yahweh has chosen you to stand before him, to minister to him, and that you should be his ministers and burn incense.”
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 arose: Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah;
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 Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 le amo ana’ i Hemaneo; Iehiele naho i Simey; vaho amo ana’ Iedotoneo, i Semaià naho i Oziele.
and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
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.
They gathered their brothers, sanctified themselves, and went in, according to the commandment of the king by Yahweh’s words, to cleanse Yahweh’s house.
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.
The priests went into the inner part of Yahweh’s house to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in Yahweh’s temple into the court of Yahweh’s house. The Levites took it from there to carry it out to the brook Kidron.
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.
Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month they came to Yahweh’s porch. They sanctified Yahweh’s house in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.
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.
Then they went in to Hezekiah the king within the palace and said, “We have cleansed all Yahweh’s house, including the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, and the table of show bread with all 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.
Moreover, we have prepared and sanctified all the vessels which King Ahaz threw away in his reign when he was unfaithful. Behold, they are before Yahweh’s altar.”
20 Nañaleñaleñe t’Iekizkia, mpanjaka nanontoñe o roandria’ i rovaio vaho nionjomb’ amy anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo,
Then Hezekiah the king arose early, gathered the princes of the city, and went up to Yahweh’s house.
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.
They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. He commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on Yahweh’s altar.
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.
So they killed the bulls, and the priests received the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They killed the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. They also killed the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.
23 Le nañarivoe’ iereo i oselahy rey ho ami’ty fañeferan-kakeo, añatrefa’ i mpanjakay naho i fivoriy, le nanampeza’ iareo fitañe;
They brought near the male goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly; and they laid their hands on 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.
Then the priests killed them, and they made a sin offering with their blood on the altar, to make atonement for all Israel; for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering should be made 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.
He set the Levites in Yahweh’s house with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was from Yahweh by his prophets.
26 Aa le nijohañe eo o nte-Levio rekets’ o fititiha’ i Davideo naho o mpisoroñeo reketse trompetra.
The Levites stood with David’s instruments, 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.
Hezekiah commanded them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. When the burnt offering began, Yahweh’s song also began, along with the trumpets and 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.
All the assembly worshiped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded. All this continued until the burnt offering was finished.
29 Ie nifonitse i fañengañey, le nidròdreke vaho niambane i mpanjakay naho o mpiama’e iabio.
When they had finished offering, the king and all who were present with him bowed themselves and worshiped.
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.
Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praises to Yahweh with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. They sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshiped.
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 Hezekiah answered, “Now you have consecrated yourselves to Yahweh. Come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into Yahweh’s house.” The assembly brought in sacrifices and thank offerings, and as many as were of a willing heart brought 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.
The number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred lambs. All these were for a burnt offering to Yahweh.
33 Le o enga navaheñeo: añombe enen-jato naho añondry telo-arivo.
The consecrated things were six hundred head of cattle and three thousand sheep.
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 too few, so that they could not skin all the burnt offerings. Therefore their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves, for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify 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,
Also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings and with the drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of Yahweh’s house was set in order.
36 naho nandia taroba t’Iekizkia naho ondaty iabio, ty amy nampihentseñan’ Añahare ho a’ondatio; amy te nitojeha i nanoeñey.
Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced because of that which God had prepared for the people; for the thing was done suddenly.
