And he appointed the priests at their charges, and encouraged them for the services of the house of the Lord.
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 told the Levites that were able [to act] in all Israel, that they should consecrate themselves to the Lord: and they put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built: and the king said, You must not carry anything on your shoulders: now then minister to the Lord your God, and to 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 prepare yourselves according to the houses of your families, and according to your daily courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and [the order] by the hand of his son Solomon.

And stand you in the house according to the divisions of the houses of your families for your brethren the sons of the people; [so] also let there be for the Levites a division of the house of their family.

And Josias gave as an offering to the children of the people, sheep, and lambs, and kids of the young of the goats, all for the passover, [even for] all that were found, in number [amounting to] thirty thousand, and three thousand calves, these [were] of the substance of the king.
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 princes gave an offering to the people, and to the priests, and to the Levites: and Chelcias and Zacharias and Jeiel the chief men gave to the priests of the house of God, they even gave for the passover sheep, and lambs, and kids, two thousand and six hundred, and three hundred calves.

And Chonenias, and Banaeas, and Samaeas, and Nathanael his brother, and Asabias, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, gave an offering to the Levites for the passover, of five thousand sheep and five hundred calves.
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.
And the service was duly ordered, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the command of the king.
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 killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hand, and the Levites flayed [the victims].
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 prepared the whole burnt offering to give to them, according to the division by the houses of families, [even] to the sons of the people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses.
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 thus [they did] till the morning. And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance; and boiled the holy [pieces] in copper vessels and cauldrons, and [the feast] went on well, and they quickly served all the children of 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 they had prepared for themselves and for the priests, for the priests [were engaged] in offering the whole burnt offerings and the fat until night, then the Levites prepared for themselves, and for their brethren 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 psalm-singers [were] at their post according to the commands of David, and Asaph, and Aeman, and Idithom, the prophets of the king: also, the chiefs and the porters of the several gates; —it was not for them to stir from the service of the holy things, for their brethren the Levites prepared 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 all the service of the Lord was duly ordered and prepared in that day, for keeping the passover, and offering the whole burnt sacrifices on the altar of the Lord, according to the command of king Josias.
17 Le nambena’ o ana’ Israele niatreke eo tañ’andro zaio fito andro i fihelañ’ amboney naho i sabadidake mofo-po-dalivaiy.
And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread 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.
And there was no passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, or any king of Israel: they kept not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda and Israel that were present, and the dwellers in Jerusalem, kept to the Lord.
19 Amy taom-paha-folo-valo-ambim-pifehea’ Ioasey ty nañambenañe i fihelañ’ amboney.
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias this passover was kept, after all these things that Josias did in the house.
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.
And Pharao Nechao king of Egypt went up against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates, and king Josias went to meet 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.
And he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with you, O king of Juda? I am not come today to war against you; and God has told me to hasten: beware of the God that is with me, lest he destroy 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, Josias turned not his face from him, but strengthened himself to fight against him, and listened not to the words of Nechao by the mouth of God, and he came to fight in the plain of Mageddo.
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 archers shot at king Josias; and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am severely 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.
And his servants lifted him out of the chariot, and put him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried with his fathers: and all Juda and Jerusalem lamented over Josias.
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 Jeremias mourned over Josias, and all the chief men and chief women uttered a lamentation over Josias until this day: and they made it an ordinance for Israel, and, behold, it is written in the lamentations.
26 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iosià ila’eo naho o fatariha’e ty amo pinatetse amy Hà’ Iehovàio
And the rest of the acts of Josias, and his hope, are written 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 his acts, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
