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 years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
2 Nanao soa am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re naho nañavelo an-tsata’ i Davide rae’e vaho tsy nitsile mb’an-kavana ndra mb’ankavia.
And he did that which was right in the sight of Yhwh, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand 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:
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Yhwh, saying,
4 Akia mb’amy Kilkià mpisoroñe hamolily o volafoty fa nasese añ’anjomba’ Iehovào, o natonto’ o mpañambin-dalambeio am’ ondatioo;
Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of Yhwh, which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:
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;
And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of Yhwh: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of Yhwh, to repair the breaches of the house,
6 amo mpandranjio, naho amo mpamboatseo naho amo mpandranjy vatoo naho hiviliañe hatae naho vato pinèke hampisomontieñe i anjombay,
Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
7 vaho tsy ampivolilieñe o tolorañe i drala am-pitañeio, amy te matoe ty fitoloña’ iareo.
Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
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.
And Hilkiah the high priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Yhwh. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he 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;
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of Yhwh.
10 le tinaro’ i Safane amy mpanjakay ty hoe: Nanese boke amako t’i Kilkia mpisoroñe. Aa le nivakie’ i Safane añatrefa’ i mpanjakay.
And Shaphan the scribe shewed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
11 Ie jinanji’ i mpanjakay ty enta’ i boke Hakey, le rinia’e o saro’eo;
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent 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:
And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah a servant of the king’s, 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 ye, enquire of Yhwh for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of Yhwh that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning us.
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.
So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; ( now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college; ) and they communed with her.
15 Le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, Saontsio indaty nañirak’ anahareo amakoy,
And she said unto them, Thus saith Yhwh God of Israel, Tell the man that 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;
Thus saith Yhwh, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:
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.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
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 to the king of Judah which sent you to enquire of Yhwh, thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith Yhwh God of Israel, As touching the words which thou hast heard;
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 thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before Yhwh, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith Yhwh.
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.
Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
