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.
Josias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Jedia, daughter of Edeia of Basuroth.
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 the Lord, and walked in all the way of David his father; he 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 Josias, in the eighth month, the king sent Sapphan the son of Ezelias the son of Mesollam, the scribe of the house of the Lord, 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 Chelcias the high priest, and take account of the money that is brought into the house of the Lord, which they that keep the door have collected 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 give it into the hand of the workmen that are appointed in the house of the Lord. And he gave it to the workmen in the house of the Lord, 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,
[even] to the carpenters, and builders, and masons, [and] also to purchase timber and hewn stones, to repair the breaches of the house.
7 vaho tsy ampivolilieñe o tolorañe i drala am-pitañeio, amy te matoe ty fitoloña’ iareo.
Only they did not call them to account for the money that was given to them, 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 Chelcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord. And Chelcias gave the book to Sapphan, 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 he went into the house of the Lord to the king, and reported the matter to the king, and said, Your servants have collected the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and have given it into the hand of the workmen that are appointed in the house of the Lord.
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 Sapphan the scribe spoke to the king, saying, Chelcias the priest has given me a book. And Sapphan 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 heard the words of the book of the law, that he tore his garments.
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 Chelcias the priest, and Achikam the son of Sapphan, and Achobor the son of Michaias, and Sapphan the scribe, and Asaias the king's servant, 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, enquire of the Lord for me, and for all the people, and for all Juda, and concerning the words of this book that has been found: for the wrath of the Lord that has been kindled against us [is] great, because our fathers listened not to the words of this book, to do according to all the things 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 Chelcias the priest went, and Achicam, and Achobor, and Sapphan, and Asaias, to Olda the prophetess, the mother of Sellem the son of Thecuan son of Aras, keeper of the robes; and she lived in Jerusalem in Masena; and they spoke to her.
15 Le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, Saontsio indaty nañirak’ anahareo amakoy,
And she said to them, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Say to 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 says the Lord, Behold, I bring evil upon this place, and upon them that dwell in it, [even] all the words of the book which the king of Juda has 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 burnt incense to other gods, that they might provoke me with the works of their hands: therefore my wrath shall burn forth 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,
And to the king of Juda that sent you to enquire of the Lord, —thus shall you say to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, [As for] the words which you have 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 your heart was softened, and you was humbled before [me], when you heard all that I spoke against this place, and against the inhabitants of it, that it should be utterly destroyed and accursed, and you did rend your garments, and weep before me; I also have heard, says 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.
It shall not be so [therefore]: behold, I [will] add you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your tomb in peace, and your eyes shall not see [any] among all the evils which I bring upon this place.
