2 Mpanjaka 22
1 Valo taoñe t’Iosià te namototse nifeleke, vaho nifehe telopolo taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao. Iedidae, anak’ ampela’ i Adaià nte-Bots’kate, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Josiah was eight when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for thirty-one years. His mother's name was Jedidah, daughter of Adaiah. She came from Bozkath.
2 Nanao soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re naho nañavelo an-tsata’ i Davide rae’e vaho tsy nitsile mb’an-kavana ndra mb’ankavia.
He did what was right in the Lord's sight, and followed all the ways of David his forefather—he did not deviate to the right or to the left.
3 Ie amy taom-paha-folo-valo-ambi’ Iosià mpanjakay, le nampihitrife’ i mpanjakay t’i Safane, ana’ i Atsaliaho ana’ i Mesolame mpanokitse mb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo, ami’ty hoe:
In the eighteenth year of his reign, Josiah sent Shaphan, son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, to the Lord's Temple. He said,
4 Akia mb’amy Kilkià mpisoroñe hamolily o volafoty fa nasese añ’anjomba’ Iehovào, o natonto’ o mpañambin-dalambeio am’ ondatioo;
“Go to Hilkiah the high priest and have him count the money the doorkeepers have collected from the people coming to the Lord's Temple.
5 le ampanesefo am-pità’ o mpanao i fitoloñañeio, amo mpisary i anjomba’ Iehovàio; le hatolo’ iereo amo mpifanehak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovào hamboareñe o vakivaky amy anjombaio;
Then hand it over to those who are supervising the work on Lord's Temple, and have them pay the workmen doing the repairing of the Lord's Temple,
6 amo mpandranjio, naho amo mpamboatseo naho amo mpandranjy vatoo naho hiviliañe hatae naho vato pinèke hampisomontieñe i anjombay,
the carpenters, the builders and the masons. In addition have them purchase timber and cut stone to repair the Temple.
7 vaho tsy ampivolilieñe o tolorañe i drala am-pitañeio, amy te matoe ty fitoloña’ iareo.
Don't ask for any accounts from the men who received the money because they deal honestly.”
8 Le hoe t’i Kilkià, mpisoroñe, amy Safane, mpanokitse; Nitreako añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao ty boke Hake. Le natolo’ i Kilkià amy Safane, vaho vinaki’e.
Hilkiah the high priest told Shaphan the scribe, “I've found the Book of the Law in the Lord's Temple.” He gave it to Shaphan who read it.
9 Nimb’ amy mpanjakay mb’eo t’i Safane mpanokitse vaho nahere’e amy mpanjakay ty saontsy manao ty hoe: Fa natonto’ o mpitoroñeo o drala niisak’ añ’ anjombao vaho natolo’ iereo am-pità’ o mpitoloñe misary ty anjomba’ Iehovào;
Shaphan the scribe went to the king and to give him a report, saying, “Your officials have paid out the money that was in the Lord's Temple and have handed it over to those appointed to supervise the work at the Lord's Temple.”
10 le tinaro’ i Safane amy mpanjakay ty hoe: Nanese boke amako t’i Kilkia mpisoroñe. Aa le nivakie’ i Safane añatrefa’ i mpanjakay.
Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” Shaphan read it to the king.
11 Ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty enta’ i boke Hakey, le rinia’e o saro’eo;
When the king heard what was in the book of the Law, he tore his clothes.
12 le linili’ i mpanjakay t’i Kilkia mpisoroñe, naho i Akikame, ana’ i Safane naho i Akbore ana’ i Mikaià naho i Safane mpanokitse vaho i Asaià mpitoro’ i mpanjakay ami’ty hoe:
Then he gave orders to Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, son of Shaphan, Acbor, son of Micaiah, Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah the king's assistant, saying,
13 Akia, añontaneo am’Iehovà ho ahy naho ondatio naho Iehoda iaby o tsara’ i boke nioniñeio, fa akore ty haviñera’ Iehovà misolebotse amantika, ie tsy hinaon-droaen-tika o tsara ami’ty boke toio; hera fonga hanoe’e aman-tikañe o sinokitseo.
“Go and talk to the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all of Judah, about what is said in the book that's been found. For the Lord must be really angry with us, because our forefathers have not obeyed the Lord's instructions in this book; they have not been doing what is written there for us to do.”
14 Aa le nimoak’ amy Koldàe mpitoky ampela, vali’ i Salome, ana’ i Tikvà, ana’ i Karkase mpañambin-tsikiñe, mpimoneñe e Ierosalaime an-kibohom-panokiram-boke ao, t’i Kilkià mpisoroñe naho i Akikame, naho i Akbore naho i Safane vaho i Asaià, le nifañaoñe ama’e.
Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Acbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went and spoke to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, custodian of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the city's second quarter.
15 Le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, Saontsio indaty nañirak’ anahareo amakoy,
She told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Tell the man who sent you to me,
16 Hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà: Mahaoniña te hametsahako hankàñe ty toetse toy naho o mpimoneñe ama’eo; toe ze hene enta’ i boke’ vinaki’ i mpanjaka’ Iehoday;
this is what the Lord says: I am about to bring disaster down on this place and on its people, in accordance with everything written in the book that has been read to the king of Judah.
17 amy te naforintse’ iereo iraho naho nañenga aman-drahare ila’e, hanigike ty haviñerako amo satam-pità’ iareoo; aa le hisolebotse ami’ty toetse toy ty haviñerako vaho tsy hakipeke.
They have abandoned me and offered sacrifices to other gods, making me angry by everything they've done. My anger will be poured out upon this place and will not be stopped.
18 Fe hoe ty ho saontsieñe amy mpanjaka’ Iehodà nañirak’ anahareo hañontane amy Iehovày: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele: ty amo tsara inanji’oo,
But tell the king of Judah who sent you to ask the Lord, tell him this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: As for what you heard read to you—
19 kanao mitrotrotrotro ty arofo’o naho nireke añatrefa’ Iehovà, ie jinanji’o i vinolako ami’ ty toetse toiy naho amo mpimone’eo, t’ie ho fatra naho fatse, vaho te rinia’o o saro’oo vaho nirovetse añatrefako; le toe tsinanoko irehe, hoe t’Iehovà.
because you were receptive and repentant before God when you heard his warnings against this place and against its people—that would become desolate and a curse—and because you have torn your clothes and wept before me, I have also heard you, declares the Lord.
20 Aa le oniño te hatontoko aman-droae’o irehe, le hambineñe an-kibori’o ao an-kanintsiñe, vaho tsy ho isam-pihaino’o ty hankàñe hafetsako ami’ty toetse toy. Aa le nahere’ iareo amy mpanjakay i entañe zay.
All this will not happen until after you have died, and you will die in peace. You will not see all the disaster that I'm going to bring down on this place.” They went back to the king and gave him her response.
