6 Emizini yakoManase, lako-Efrayimi lakoSimiyoni, kuze kuyefika koNafithali, lasemanxiweni aseduzane layo,
Le esia megbe la, eyi Manase, Efraim kple Simeon ƒe duwo me, yi keke Naftali ƒe duwo me ke eye wòwɔ nu mawo ke le teƒe mawo hã.

8 Ngomnyaka wetshumi lasificaminwembili wokubusa kukaJosiya, ukuze ahlambulule ilizwe kanye lethempeli, wathumela uShafani indodana ka-Azaliya loMaseya umbusi wedolobho, loJowa indodana kaJowahazi, umlobi, ukuba bavuselele ithempeli likaThixo uNkulunkulu wakhe.
Le eƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuienyilia me, esi wòɖe nu vɔ̃wo ɖa le anyigba la dzi kple gbedoxɔ la ŋuti vɔ la, etia Safan, Azalia ƒe viŋutsu kple Maaseya, be woanye mɔmefia le Yerusalem. Etia Yoa, Yoahaz ƒe vi be wòanye dua ƒe gadzikpɔla eye wòadzra Yehowa, eƒe Mawu, ƒe gbedoxɔ la ɖo.
9 Baya kuHilikhiya umphristi omkhulu bamnika imali eyayilethwe ethempelini likaNkulunkulu, eyayiqoqwe ngabaLevi ababengabagcini beminyango beyiqoqa ebantwini bakoManase, lako-Efrayimi layo yonke insalela yabako-Israyeli lakubo bonke abantu bakoJuda labakoBhenjamini lababehlala eJerusalema.
Eye woyi Nunɔlagã Hilkia gbɔ hetsɔ ga siwo wohe va Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me la na. Ga siawo nye ga si Levitɔwo xɔ le gbedoxɔ la ƒe agbowo nu tso ame siwo tso Manase, Efraim kple Israel ƒe akpa bubuawo, Yuda blibo la kple Benyamin kpakple Yerusalemtɔwo si.
10 Basebeyiqhubela amadoda ayekhethelwe ukukhangela ukuqhubeka komsebenzi wasethempelini likaThixo. Lamadoda ayeholisa ababevuselela lokwakha kutsha ithempeli.
Ale wotsɔ wo na dɔnunɔla siwo wotia be woakpɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe dzadzraɖodɔwo dzi. Ame siawo xea fe na dɔwɔla siwo dzra gbedoxɔ la ƒe gbagbãƒewo ɖo.
11 Eyinye bayiqhubela ababazi labakhi ukuze bathenge amatshe abaziweyo lezigodo lezintungo zezindlu ezadilika amakhosi akoJuda engananzelele.

12 Amadoda ayisebenza imisebenzi yawo ngokwethembeka. Ayekhokhelwa njalo eqondiswa ngoJahathi lo-Obhadaya, abaLevi bosendo lukaMerari, uZakhariya loMeshulami abosendo lukaKhohathi. AbaLevi bonke ababengamagabazi kwezamachacho omculo,
Dɔwɔlawo tsɔ dzo ɖe dɔ la ŋu nɔ Yahat kple Obadiya, ame siwo nye Levitɔwo tso Merari ƒe hlɔ̃ la me la ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te. Zekaria kple Mesulam tso Kohat ƒe hlɔ̃ la me woe nye xɔtudɔdzikpɔlawo. Levitɔ siwo nya saŋkuƒoƒo la, nɔa saŋku ƒom le esime dɔwɔlawo nɔa dɔ dzi.
13 babephethe izisebenzi njalo bekhangele izisebenzi kulowo lalowo umsebenzi. Abanye abaLevi babengonobhala, labalobi kanye labalindi beminyango.

14 Besakhipha imali eyayingeniswe ethempelini likaThixo, uHilikhiya umphristi wafumana uGwalo loMthetho kaThixo owawuphiwe uMosi.
Gbe ɖeka esi nunɔlagã Hilkia nɔ gbedoxɔ me eye wònɔ ga si wodzɔ le agboawo nu dem agbalẽ me la, ekpɔ Segbalẽ aɖe si me woŋlɔ Yehowa ƒe Se siwo wòde na Mose la ɖo!
15 UHilikhiya wathi kuShafani unobhala, “Sengilutholile uGwalo loMthetho ethempelini likaThixo.” Waselunika uShafani.
Hilkia gblɔ na Safan, nuŋlɔla la be, “Mefɔ Segbalẽ la le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me.” Etsɔe na Safan.
16 Ngalokho uShafani waluthatha walusa enkosini wayibikela wathi: “Izikhulu zakho ziyakwenza konke ozilaye ukuba zikwenze.
Tete Safan tsɔ agbalẽ la yi na fia la eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Wò dɔnunɔlawo le nu sia nu wɔm le woƒe dɔdeasiwo ŋuti.

Wotsɔ ga si nɔ Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la me la de asi na dɔdzikpɔlawo kple dɔwɔlawo.”
18 Ngakho uShafani unobhala wabikela inkosi, wathi, “UHilikhiya umphristi usengiphe ugwalo.” Ngakho uShafani waselubala phambi kwenkosi.
Safan ƒo nu tso agbalẽ la kple ale si Hilkia fɔe la ŋu eye wòxlẽe na fia la.
19 Inkosi yonela ukuzwa amazwi oMthetho, yadabula izembatho zayo

20 yapha leziziqondiso kuHilikhiya, lo-Ahikhami indodana kaShefani, lo-Abhidoni indodana kaMikha, loShafani unobhala kanye lo-Asaya inceku yenkosi yathi:
Eɖe gbe Hilkia, Ahikam, Safan ƒe viŋutsu, Abdon, Mika ƒe viŋutsu, nuŋlɔla Safan kple Asaya, fia ƒe subɔla be,
21 “Hambani liyengibuzela kuThixo lensalela yako-Israyeli labakoJuda ngalokhu okulotshwe kulolugwalo olutholakeleyo. Lukhulu ulaka lukaThixo phezu kwethu ngenxa yabokhokho abangazange balilalele ilizwi likaThixo; kabenzanga ngendlela okulotshwe ngayo kulolugwalo.”
“Miyi miabia Yehowa nam kple Israel kple Yuda blibo la tso nu siwo woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ si wofɔ la ŋuti. Yehowa trɔ eƒe dɔmedzoe kɔ ɖe mía dzi elabena mía fofowo mewɔ ɖe Yehowa ƒe nyawo dzi o. Womezɔ ɖe nu siwo katã woŋlɔ ɖe agbalẽ sia me la nu o.”
22 UHilikhiya lalabo ayethunywe labo yinkosi bahamba ukuba bayekhuluma loHulida umphrofethikazi owayengumkaShalumi indodana kaThokhathi, indodana kaHasira, umlondolozi wezembatho. UHulida wayehlala eJerusalema endaweni yeSiqinti Sesibili.

23 Wathi kubo, “Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, uthi: Tshelani umuntu olithume kimi lithi,
Egblɔ na wo be, “Nu si Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la gblɔe nye, Gblɔ na ame si ɖo wò ɖe gbɔnye la be,

33 UJosiya wasusa zonke izithombe ezenyanyekayo ezabelweni zonke ezazingezako-Israyeli, wenza bonke abako-Israyeli bamkhonza uThixo uNkulunkulu wabo. Ngezinsuku zokuphila kwakhe kazange aphambuke endleleni kaThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho babo.
