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 unto the LORD in Jerusalem: and they killed the passover on the fourteenth [day] of the first month.
2 Le nalaha’e am-pirimboñañe o mpisoroñeo, le nosihe’e amy fitoroñañe i anjomba’ Iehovàiy.
And he set the priests in their charges, and encouraged them to the service 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 said unto the Levites that taught all Israel, which were holy unto the LORD, Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel did build; there shall no more be a burden upon your shoulders: now serve 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 prepare yourselves after your fathers’ houses by your courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing 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 stand in the holy place according to the divisions of the fathers’ houses of your brethren the children of the people, and [let there be for each] a portion of a fathers’ house of the Levites.
6 Le lentao i fihelañ’ amboney naho miavaha, le ampihentseño o longo’ areoo, hañorike i tsara’ Iehovà ampità’ i Mosèy.
And kill the passover, and sanctify yourselves, and prepare for your brethren, to do according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
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 to the children of the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all of them for the passover offerings, unto all that were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bullocks: these were of the king’s substance.
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 for a freewill offering unto the people, to the priests, and to the Levites. Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, the rulers of the house of God, gave unto the priests for the passover offerings two thousand and 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.
Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brethren, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, gave unto 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 the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites by their courses, according to the king’s commandment.
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, which they received] of their hand, and the Levites flayed them:
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 removed the burnt offerings, that they might give them according to the divisions of the fathers’ houses of the children of the people, to offer unto the LORD, as it is written in the book of Moses. And so did they 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 they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance: and the holy offerings sod they in pots, and in caldrons, and in pans, and carried them quickly to 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 afterward they prepared for themselves, and for the priests; because the priests the sons of Aaron [were busied] in offering the burnt offerings and the fat until night: therefore the Levites prepared 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 singers the sons of Asaph were in their place, according to the commandment of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer; and the porters were at every gate: they needed not to depart from their service, 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 prepared the same day, to keep the passover, and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar of the LORD, according to the commandment of king Josiah.
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 to that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did any of the kings of Israel keep such a passover as Josiah kept, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
19 Amy taom-paha-folo-valo-ambim-pifehea’ Ioasey ty nañambenañe i fihelañ’ amboney.
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah was this passover 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, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Neco king of Egypt went up to fight against Carchemish by 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 ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? [I come] not against thee this day, but against the house wherewith I have war; and God hath commanded me to make haste: forbear thee from [meddling with] God, who is with me, that he destroy thee not.
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.
Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and hearkened not unto the words of Neco, from the month of God, and came to 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 archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his servants, Have me away; for I am sore 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 chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried in the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned 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 lamented for Josiah: and all the singing men and singing women spake of Josiah in their lamentations, unto this day; and they made them an ordinance in Israel: and, behold, they are written in the lamentations.
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 his good deeds, according to that which is 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, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
