2 Tantara 35
1 Le nambena’ Iosià e Ierosalaime ao ty fihelañ’ ambone am’ Iehovà; vaho linenta amy faha-folo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’eiy i fihelañ’ amboney.
And Josiah kept a Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem; on the fourteenth day of the first month they put the Passover lamb to death.
2 Le nalaha’e am-pirimboñañe o mpisoroñeo, le nosihe’e amy fitoroñañe i anjomba’ Iehovàiy.
And he gave the priests their places, making them strong for the work of the house of God.
3 Le hoe re amo nte-Levy mpañoke Israele iabio, o navaheñe amy Iehovào: Apoho amy anjomba’ rinanji’ i Selomò ana’ i Davidey i vata masiñey, fa tsy ho kilankañe an-tsoro’ areo eo ka, vaho toroño t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo naho ondati’e Israeleo henane zao;
And he said to the Levites, the teachers of all Israel, who were holy to the Lord, See, the holy ark is in the house which Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel, made; it will no longer have to be transported on your backs: now be the servants of the Lord your God and his people Israel,
4 le mihentseña sambe anjomban-droae, songa firimboñañe, ty amy sinoki’ i Davide mpanjaka’ Israeley naho i sinoki’ i Selomò ana’ey;
And make yourselves ready in your divisions, by your families, as it is ordered in the writings of David, king of Israel, and of Solomon his son;
5 le mijohaña an-toe-miavake ao, songa firimboñan’ anjomban-droaen-drolongo, naho ami’ty fizarañe o anjomban-droaen-te-Levio.
And take your positions in the holy place, grouped in the families of your brothers, the children of the people, and for every division let there be a part of a family of the Levites.
6 Le lentao i fihelañ’ amboney naho miavaha, le ampihentseño o longo’ areoo, hañorike i tsara’ Iehovà ampità’ i Mosèy.
And put the Passover lamb to death, and make yourselves holy, and make it ready for your brothers, so that the orders given by the Lord through Moses may be done.
7 Le nitolora’ Iosià vik’ añondry naho vik’ ose amo ana’ondatio, ze teo iaby, songa hengaeñe amy fihelañ’ amboney, le telo’ ale ty hamaro’e naho añombe telo’ arivo, boak’ am-panaña’ i mpanjakay.
And Josiah gave lambs and goats from the flock as Passover offerings for all the people who were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand oxen: these were from the king's private property.
8 Nañomey an-tsatrin’ arofo amo mpisoroñeo naho amo nte-Levio ka o roandriañeo. Le natolo’ i Kilkià naho i Zekarià vaho Iekiele, mpiaolo amy anjomban’ Añaharey amo mpisoroñeo ty ro’arivo-tsi-enenjato hisoroñañe amy fihelañ’ amboney naho añombe telon-jato.
And his captains freely gave an offering to the people, the priests, and the Levites. Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, the rulers of the house of God, gave to the priests for the Passover offerings two thousand, six hundred small cattle and three hundred oxen.
9 Nanolotse amo nte-Levio ka t’i Konanià naho i Semaia naho i Netanele, rahalahi’e naho i Kasabià naho Ieiele vaho Iozabade, mpiaolo’ o nte-Levio, ty lime-arivo hisoroñañe amy fihelañ’ amboney naho ty añombe liman-jato.
And Conaniah and Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, gave to the Levites for the Passover offerings five thousand small cattle and five hundred oxen.
10 Aa le nihalankañeñe i fitoloñañey, songa nijohañe an-toe’e eo o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, sindre firimboñañe, ty amy lili’ i mpanjakay.
So everything was made ready and the priests took their places with the Levites in their divisions, as the king had said.
11 Le linenta’ iareo i vik’ añondrim-pihelañ’ amboney, le nafetsa’ o mpisoroñeo boak’ ampità’ iareo ty lio’e vaho nolire’ o nte-Levio.
And they put the Passover lambs to death, the blood being drained out by the priests when it was given to them, and the Levites did the skinning.
12 Navi’ iareo o hisoroñañeo, hanolora’ iareo amo fizaran’ anjomban-droae’ o ana’ ondatio, hañenga’ iareo am’ Iehovà ty amy misokitse am-boke’ i Mosèy. Manahake izay o añombeo.
And they took away the burned offerings, so that they might give them to be offered to the Lord for the divisions of the families of the people, as it is recorded in the book of Moses. And they did the same with the oxen.
13 Natono’ iareo añ’ afo i fihelañ’ amboney ty amy fañèy fe natokoñe ambalàñe naho an-tsajoa ao vaho an-tsiliàñe o soroñe miavakeo vaho nasese’ iareo masìka amo ana’ ondatio.
And the Passover lamb was cooked over the fire, as it says in the law; and the holy offerings were cooked in pots and basins and vessels, and taken quickly to all the people.
14 Ie nañeneke izay le nañajary ho am-bata’e naho amo mpisoroñeo; amy te nañenga o soroñeo naho i saboray pak’ amy haleñey o mpisoroñe ana’ i Aharoneo; aa le nifañalankañe ho am-bata’e naho ho amo mpisoroñe ana’ i Aharoneo o nte-Levio.
And after that, they made ready for themselves and for the priests; for the priests, the sons of Aaron, were offering the burned offerings and the fat till night; so the Levites made ready what was needed for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.
15 An-toe’e eo ka o mpisabo ana’ i Asafeo, ty amy lili’ i Davide naho i Asafe naho Iedotone, mpioni’ i mpanjakay; le tsy niavota’ o mpañambeñeo ty fitoroña’ iareo amo lalambey iabio, amy te nañalankañe ho a iareo o nte-Levy longo’ iareoo.
And the sons of Asaph, the makers of melody, were in their places, as ordered by David and Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the king's seer; and the door-keepers were stationed at every door: there was no need for them to go away from their places, for their brothers the Levites made ready for them.
16 Aa le nihenek’ amy àndroy ty fitoroñañe am’ Iehovà, ty fañambenañe i fihelañ’ amboney naho ty fisoroñañe o engan-koroañe an-kitreli’ Iehovào, ty amy nafe’ Ioase mpanjakay.
So everything needed for the worship of the Lord was made ready that same day, for the keeping of the Passover and the offering of burned offerings on the altar of the Lord, as King Josiah had given orders.
17 Le nambena’ o ana’ Israele niatreke eo tañ’andro zaio fito andro i fihelañ’ amboney naho i sabadidake mofo-po-dalivaiy.
And all the children of Israel who were present kept the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread at that time for seven days.
18 Le tsy teo ty fihelañ’ ambone nihajarieñe hambañ’ama’e e Israele ao boak’ añ’ andro’ i Samoele mpitoky; vaho tsy tamo mpanjaka’ Israeleo ty nahaambeñe fihelañ’ ambone manahake ty nanoe’ Ioase rekets’ o mpisoroñe naho nte-Levio naho Iehodà naho Israele iaby niatrekeo, mitraok’ amo mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo.
No Passover like it had been kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; and not one of the kings of Israel had ever kept a Passover like the one kept by Josiah and the priests and the Levites and all those of Judah and Israel who were present, and the people of Jerusalem.
19 Amy taom-paha-folo-valo-ambim-pifehea’ Ioasey ty nañambenañe i fihelañ’ amboney.
In the eighteenth year of the rule of Josiah this Passover was kept.
20 Ie añe, naho fa nihajarie’ Iosia i anjombay, te nimb’eo t’i Nekò, mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime hialy e Karkemise e Peratey añe, le niavotse mb’eo t’Iosia hiatreatre.
After all this, and after Josiah had put the house in order, Neco, king of Egypt, went up to make war at Carchemish by the river Euphrates; and Josiah went out against him.
21 Fe nampihitrifa’e ìrake, nanao ty hoe: Manao inoñ’ ama’o iraho ry mpanjaka’ Iehodà? Tsy ihe ty atretrèko androany, fa i anjomba anañako aliy; vaho nandily ahy hihitrihitry mb’eo t’i Andrianañahare; aa le mifoneña tsy hitsoborea’o i Andrianañahare mpañolotse ahikoy, tsy mone harotsa’e.
But he sent representatives to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O king of Judah? I have not come against you this day, but against those with whom I am at war; and God has given me orders to go forward quickly: keep out of God's way, for he is with me, or he will send destruction on you.
22 Fe tsy nimete nitolike tsy ho ama’e t’Iosia fa nañonohono vatañe hialia’e, le tsy hinao’e i saontsi’ i Nekò boak’ am-palien’ Añaharey vaho nimb’ am-bavatane’ i Megidò re hialy.
However, Josiah would not go back; but keeping to his purpose of fighting against him, and giving no attention to the words of Neco, which came from God, he went forward to the fight in the valley of Megiddo.
23 Aa le tinifi’ o mpitàm-paleo t’Iosia mpanjaka; le hoe i mpanjakay amo mpitoro’eo; Asitaho iraho, fa vata’e fere.
And the bowmen sent their arrows at King Josiah, and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am badly wounded.
24 Aa le nakare’ o mpitoro’eo amy saretey vaho najo’ iareo amy sarete faharoe nindese’ey naho nasese’ iareo mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo naho nihomake vaho nalentek’ an-kiborin-droae’e ao. Le fonga nandala aze t’Iehoda naho Ierosalaime.
So his servants took him out of the line of war-carriages, and put him in his second carriage and took him to Jerusalem, where he came to his end, and they put his body in the resting-place of his fathers. And in all Judah and Jerusalem there was great weeping for Josiah.
25 Nibeko fandalañe am’ Iosia t’Ieremià naho hene takasie’ o sakeran-dahilahio naho bekoe’ o sairy ampelao t’Iosia pak’ androany; vaho nanoa’ iareo fañè e Israele ao; oniño t’ie misokitse amo Firovetañeo.
And Jeremiah made a song of grief for Josiah; and to this day Josiah is named by all the makers of melody, men and women, in their songs of grief; they made it a rule in Israel; and the songs are recorded among the songs of grief.
26 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iosià ila’eo naho o fatariha’e ty amo pinatetse amy Hà’ Iehovàio
Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and the good he did, in keeping with what is recorded in the law of the Lord,
27 le o tolon-draha’eo, ty valoha’e pak’ am-para’e; ingo fonga sinokitse amy bokem-panjakà’ Israele naho Iehoday.
And all his acts, first and last, are recorded in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
