2 Tantara 30
1 Le nampañitrik’ am’ Israele naho Iehoda iaby t’Iekizkia, nanokitse taratasy amy Efraime naho i Menasè, hañaveloa’ iareo mb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà e Ierosalaime ao, hañambeñe ty fihelañ’ ambone’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele.
And Ezekias sent to all Israel and Juda, and wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasse, that they should come into the house of the Lord to Jerusalem, to keep the passover to the Lord God of Israel.
2 Fa nilahatse amo roandriañeo naho amy fivoribei’ Ierosalaime iabiy t’Iekizkia te hambenañe ami’ty volam-paha-roe’ i fihelañ’ amboney,
For the king, and the princes, and all the congregation in Jerusalem, designed to keep the passover in the second month.
3 amy t’ie tsy nilefe amy andro’e, mbore tsy niampe o mpisoroñe nampiavahem-batañeo vaho mbe tsy nifanontoñe e Ierosalaime ao ondatio.
For they could not keep it at that time, because a sufficient number of priest had not purified themselves, and the people was not gathered to Jerusalem.
4 Nahity am-pihaino’ i mpanjakay naho amy fivory iabiy izay.
And the proposal pleased the king and the congregation.
5 Aa le nafe’ iereo te ho tsitsifen-koike t’Israele, boake Beer-Sevà pake Dane, hampihovañe mb’e Ierosalaime ao hañambeñe i fihelañ’ ambone am’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israeley, amy t’ie mboe tsy nambenañe am-pivondronañe manahake i pinatetsey.
And they established a decree that a proclamation should go through all Israel, from Bersabee to Dan, that they should come and keep the passover to the Lord God of Israel at Jerusalem: for the multitude had not done it lately according to the scripture.
6 Aa le nimb’ eo o mpihitrikeo rekets’ i taratasi’ i mpanjakay naho o roandria’eoy, nanitsike Israele naho Iehoda, ty amy nandilia’ i mpanjakay, nanao ty hoe: Ry ana’ Israele, mimpolia am’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, Ietsake naho Israele, hibaliha’e ama’ areo nahapolititse am-pità’ o mpanjaka’ i Asoreo.
And the posts went with the letters from the king and the princes to all Israel and Juda, according to the command of the king, saying, Children of Israel, return to the Lord God of Abraam, and Isaac, and Israel, and bring back them that have escaped [even] those that were left of the hand of the king of Assyria.
7 Ko mitsikombe an-droae’ areo naho an-droahalahi’ areo niola am’ Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo, kanao natolo’e ho rotsaheñe; ie o isa’ areo henaneo.
And be not as your fathers, and your brethren, who revolted from the Lord God of their fathers, and he gave them up to desolation, as you see.
8 Aa le ko mihagàn-katoke manahak’ an-droae’ areo; fe mamoea vatañe am’ Iehovà, le mimoaha amy toe-miavake nampiavaheñe ho nainai’ey vaho toroño t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo soa te hitolike ty haviñera’e miforoforo.
And now harden not your hearts, as your fathers [did]: give glory to the Lord God, and enter into his sanctuary, which he has sanctified for ever: and serve the Lord your God, and he shall turn away [his] fierce anger from you.
9 Aa naho mimpoly amy Iehovà nahareo le ho tendreke fitretrezañe o longo naho ana’ areo nikozozoteñe añe an-drohio, naho himpoly mb’an-tane atoy; fa matarike naho mpiferenaiñe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo vaho tsy hampitolihe’e ty lahara’e naho impolia’areo.
For when you turn to the Lord, your brethren and your children shall be pitied before all that have carried them captives, and he will restore [you] to this land: for the Lord our God is merciful and pitiful, and will not turn away his face from you, if we return to him.
10 Aa le nitoañeñe t’i Efraime naho i Menasè pake Zebolone mb’an-drova an-drova o mpañitrikeo; fe nitohafañe amañ-inje naho kizake.
So the posts went through from city to city in mount Ephraim, and Manasse, and as far as Zabulon: and they as it were laughed them to scorn, and mocked them.
11 Fe eo ty nirè-batañe am’ondati’ i Asere naho i Menasè vaho i Zeboloneo, le nimb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
But the men of Aser, and [some] of Manasses and of Zabulon, were ashamed, and came to Jerusalem and Juda.
12 Le tam’ Iehoda ka ty fitàn’ Añahare nanolots’ arofo raike ama’e hañorike ty lili’ i mpanjakay naho o roandriañeo ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
And the hand of the Lord was [present] to give them one heart to come, to do according to the commands of the king and of the princes, by the word of the Lord.
13 Aa le tsifotofoto t’indaty nifanontoñe e Ierosalaime ao hañambeñe ty sabadidak’ i mofo-tsi-aman-dalivaey amy volam-paha-roey, valobohòke nitozantoza.
And a great multitude were gathered to Jerusalem to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation.
14 Niongake le nafaha’ iareo o kitrely e Ierosalaime ao naho nendese’ iereo añe ka ze hene kitrelim-pañembohañe vaho navokovoko’ iareo an-torahan-Kidrone ao.
And they arose, and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all on which they burnt incense to false [gods] they tore down and cast into the brook Kedron.
15 Linenta’ iareo amy andro faha-folo-efats’ambi’ i volam-paharoey i vik’ añondri’ i fihelañ’amboney, ie nisalatse o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio naho nañamasim-batañe vaho nanese engan-koroañe añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao,
Then they killed the passover on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites repented, and purified [themselves], and brought whole burnt offerings into the house of the Lord.
16 le nijohañe amo toetse nalahatse ho a iareoo, ty amy Tsara’ i Mosè ‘ndatin’ Añaharey; nafetsa’ o mpisoroñeo ty lio rinambe’ iareo am-pità’ o nte-Levio;
And they stood at their post, according to their ordinance, according to the commandment of Moses the man of God: and the priests received the blood from the hand of the Levites.
17 amy te nimaro amy fivoriy ty tsy nañefe-batañe, le tamo nte-Levio ty lily handentàñe o vi’ i fihelañ’ amboneio hasolo ze hene tsy nalio, hañeferañe iareo amy Iehovà.
For a great part of the congregation was not sanctified; and the Levites were [ready] to kill the passover for every one who could not sanctify himself to the Lord.
18 Toe maro t’indaty, àntsake o boak’ Efraime naho e Menasè naho e Isakare vaho e Zeboloneo ty tsy nahaefe-batañe, fe nikama’ iareo avao i fihelañ’ amboney ndra t’ie tsy do’e amy pinatetsey, amy te nihalaly ho a iareo t’Iekizkia ami’ty hoe: Hapò Iehovà, abey
For the greatest part of the people of Ephraim, and Manasse, and Issachar, and Zabulon, had not purified [themselves], but ate the passover contrary to the scripture. On this account also Ezekias prayed concerning them, saying,
19 ze mamahatse ty arofo’e hipay an’ Andrianañahare; t’Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-droae’e ndra t’ie tsy do’e ty amy fañeferañe amy miavakey.
The good Lord be merciful with regard to every heart that sincerely seeks the Lord God of their fathers, and [is] not [purified] according to the purification of the sanctuary.
20 Hinao’ Iehovà t’Iekizkia le nijangañe’e ondatio.
And the Lord listened to Ezekias, and healed the people.
21 Nanao i sabadida-mofo-tsi-amandalivaey fito andro an-kafaleam-bey o ana’ Israeleo e Ierosalaimeo vaho nandrenge Iehovà handro an-kandro o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, nisabo reketse fititihañe mangatsìñe amy Iehovà.
And the children of Israel who were present in Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great joy; and they continued to sing hymns to the Lord daily, and the priests and the Levites [played] on instruments to the Lord.
22 Le nosihe’ Iekizkia an-tsaontsy o nte-Levy nahimbañe amy fitoroñañe Iehovàio. Aa le songa nikama amy andro fito namantañañe rey ondatio naho nañenga sorom-pañanintsiñe vaho nañandriañe Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo.
And Ezekias encouraged all the Levites, and those that had good understanding of the Lord: and they completely kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days, offering peace-offerings, and confessing to the Lord God of their fathers.
23 Nilahare’ i valobohòkey amy zao t’ie mbe hambenañe andro fito ka; le nitana’ iareo an-kafaleañe i andro fito tovo’e rey.
And the congregation purposed together to keep other seven days: and they kept seven days with gladness.
24 Fa natolo’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehoda amy fivoriy ty añombe arivo naho añondry fito arivo le nanolotse añombe arivo naho añondry rai-ale amy fivoriy ka o roandriañeo; vaho maro bey ty mpisoroñe nañefe-batañe.
For Ezekias set apart for Juda, [even] for the congregation, a thousand calves and seven thousand sheep; and the princes set apart for the people a thousand calves and ten thousand sheep: and the holy things of the priests abundantly.
25 Le nirebeke iaby ty valobohò’ Iehoda, miharo amo mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio naho i valobohòke boake Israeley naho o renetane boak’ an-tane’ Israeleo vaho o mpimoneñe e Iehodào.
And all the congregation, the priests and the Levites, rejoiced, and all the congregation of Juda, and they that were present of Jerusalem, and the strangers that came from the land of Israel, and the dwellers in Juda.
26 Aa le nitoabotse ty hafaleañe e Ierosalaime ao; amy te sikal’ amy andro’ i Selomò ana’ i Davide mpanjaka’ Israeley tsy tama’ Ierosalaime ty nanahake izay.
And there was great joy in Jerusalem: from the days of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not such a feast in Jerusalem.
27 Niongak’ amy zao o mpisoroñe nte-Levio, nitata ondatio, le jinanjiñe ty fiarañanaña’ iareo; vaho nahatakatse i fimoneña’e masiñe añ’abo andindiñe añe, ty halali’ iareo.
Then the priests the Levites rose up and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came into his holy dwelling-place, [even] into heaven.
