2 Nyakati 34
1 Yosia alikuwa na miaka minane alipoanza kutawala, naye akatawala huko Yerusalemu miaka thelathini na mmoja.
Josie was of eiyte yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede in Jerusalem oon and thritti yeer.
2 Akafanya yaliyo mema machoni pa Bwana na kuenenda katika njia za Daudi baba yake, hakugeuka upande wa kuume wala wa kushoto.
And he dide that, that was riytful in the siyt of the Lord; and yede in the waies of Dauid, his fadir, and bowide not to the riyt side nether to the left side.
3 Katika mwaka wa nane wa utawala wake, alipokuwa angali bado mdogo, alianza kumtafuta Mungu wa Daudi baba yake. Katika mwaka wake wa kumi na mbili alianza kusafisha mahali pa juu pa kuabudia miungu pa Yuda na Yerusalemu, akiondoa nguzo za Ashera, sanamu za kuchonga na vinyago vya kusubu.
Forsothe in the eiytethe yeer of the rewme of his empire, whanne he was yit a child, he bigan to seke God of his fadir Dauid; and in the tweluethe yeer after that he bigan, he clenside Juda and Jerusalem fro hiy places, and wodis, and similacris, and grauun ymagis.
4 Mbele ya macho yake, wakazibomoa madhabahu za Mabaali, wakazivunja madhabahu za kufukizia uvumba zilizokuwa zimesimama juu yake, wakazivunja nguzo za Ashera, sanamu na vinyago. Hivi alivivunja vipande vipande na kuvisambaza juu ya makaburi ya waliokuwa wamevitolea kafara.
And thei destrieden bifor hym the auteris of Baalym, and thei destrieden the symylacris, that weren put aboue. Also he hewide doun the wodis, and grauun ymagis, and brak to smale gobetis; and scateride abrood `the smale gobetis on the birielis of hem, that weren wont to offre `to tho.
5 Akachoma mifupa ya makuhani wao juu ya madhabahu zao na kwa njia hiyo akaitakasa Yuda na Yerusalemu.
Ferthermore he brente the boonys of preestis in the auteris of idols, and he clenside Juda and Jerusalem.
6 Katika miji ya Manase, Efraimu na Simeoni, hadi Naftali na kwenye magofu yanayoizunguka,
But also he destriede alle idols in the citees of Manasses, and of Effraym, and of Symeon, `til to Neptalym.
7 akavunja madhabahu na nguzo za Ashera na kuzipondaponda hizo sanamu hadi zikawa unga na kukata vipande vipande madhabahu zote za kufukizia uvumba katika Israeli yote. Kisha akarudi Yerusalemu.
And whanne he hadde scateride the auteris, and hadde al to-broke in to gobetis the wodis, and grauun ymagis, and hadde destried alle templis of ydols fro al the lond of Israel, he turnede ayen in to Jerusalem.
8 Katika mwaka wa kumi na nane wa utawala wa Yosia, ili kutakasa nchi na Hekalu, akawatuma Shafani, mwana wa Azalia na Maaseya mtawala wa mji, pamoja na Yoa mwana wa Yoahazi, mwandishi ili kukarabati Hekalu la Bwana Mungu wake.
Therfor in the eiytenthe yeer of his rewme, whanne the lond and temple `of the Lord was clensid nowe, he sente Saphan, the sone of Helchie, and Masie, the prince of the citee, and Joa, the sone of Joachaz, chaunceler, that thei schulden reparele the hous `of his Lord God.
9 Wakamwendea Hilkia kuhani mkuu na kumpa fedha ambazo zilikuwa zimeletwa ndani ya Hekalu la Bwana ambazo Walawi waliokuwa mabawabu walikuwa wamezikusanya kutoka kwa watu wa Manase, Efraimu na mabaki wote wa Israeli kutoka kwa watu wote wa Yuda na Benyamini na wakazi wa Yerusalemu.
Whiche camen to Helchie, the grete preest; and whanne thei hadden take of hym the money, which was brouyt in to the hows of the Lord; and which monei the dekenes and porteris hadden gaderid of Manasses, and of Effraym, and of alle the residue men of Israel, and of al Juda and Beniamyn, and of the dwelleris of Jerusalem,
10 Kisha wakazikabidhi hizo fedha kwa watu waliowekwa ili kusimamia kazi ya Hekalu la Bwana. Hawa watu waliwalipa wafanyakazi waliokarabati na kutengeneza Hekalu lipate kurudi katika hali yake.
thei yauen it in the hondis of hem that weren souereyns of the werk men in the hows of the Lord, that thei schulden restore the temple, and reparele alle feble thingis.
11 Wakawapa pia mafundi seremala na waashi fedha ili kununua mawe yaliyochongwa, mbao kwa ajili ya kufungia na boriti kwa ajili ya majengo ambayo wafalme wa Yuda walikuwa wameyaacha yakawa magofu.
And thei yauen that monei to the crafti men and masouns, for to bie stoonys hewid out of the `delues, ether quarreris, and trees to the ioynyngis of the bildyng, and to the coupling of housis, whiche the kingis of Juda hadden destried.
12 Watu wakafanya kazi kwa uaminifu. Waliokuwa wamewekwa juu yao ili kuwaelekeza ni Yahathi na Obadia, Walawi wa uzao wa Merari, Zekaria na Meshulamu, waliotoka kwenye uzao wa Kohathi. Walawi wote waliokuwa na ufundi wa kupiga ala za uimbaji,
Whiche men diden feithfuli alle thingis. Sotheli the souereyns of worcheris weren Jabath, and Abdie, of the sones of Merari; Zacarie, and Mosallam, of the sones of Caath; whiche hastiden the werk; alle weren dekenes, kunnynge to synge with orguns.
13 wakawa wasimamizi wa vibarua na kuwaongoza wale waliofanya kila aina ya kazi. Baadhi ya Walawi walikuwa waandishi, maafisa na mabawabu.
Sotheli ouer them that baren birthuns to dyuerse vsis weren the scribis, and maistris of the dekenes, and porteris.
14 Wakati walikuwa wakizitoa nje fedha zilizokuwa zimetolewa kwenye Hekalu la Bwana, kuhani Hilkia akakipata kile Kitabu cha Sheria ya Bwana kilichokua kimetolewa kwa mkono wa Mose.
And whanne thei baren out the monei, that was borun in to the temple of the Lord, Helchie, `the preest, foond the book of the lawe of the Lord bi the hond of Moises.
15 Hilkia akamwambia Shafani mwandishi, “Nimekipata Kitabu cha Sheria ndani ya Hekalu la Bwana.” Akampa Shafani kile Kitabu.
And he seide to Saphan, the writere, Y haue founde the book of the lawe in the hows of the Lord.
16 Kisha Shafani akakipeleka kile Kitabu kwa mfalme na kumwambia, “Maafisa wako wanafanya kila kitu kama walivyokabidhiwa kufanya.
And Helchie took to Saphan, and he bar in the book to the king; and telde to hym, and seide, Lo! alle thingis ben fillid, whiche thou hast youe in to the hondis of thi seruauntis.
17 Wamelipa fedha zilizokuwa katika Hekalu la Bwana na wamewakabidhi wasimamizi na wafanyakazi.”
Thei han wellyd togidere the siluere, which is foundun in the hous of the Lord; and it is youun to the souereyns of the crafti men, and makynge dyuerse werkis;
18 Kisha Shafani mwandishi akamwarifu mfalme kuwa, “Kuhani Hilkia amenipa Kitabu.” Naye Shafani akakisoma mbele ya mfalme.
ferthermore Helchie, the preest, took to me this book. And whanne he hadde rehersid this book in the presence of the kyng,
19 Mfalme aliposikia yale maneno ya Sheria, akayararua mavazi yake.
and he hadde herd the wordis of the lawe, he to-rente hise clothis; and he comaundide to Helchie,
20 Akatoa maagizo haya kwa Hilkia, Ahikamu mwana wa Shafani, Abdoni mwana wa Mika, Shafani mwandishi na Asaya mtumishi wa mfalme,
and to Aichan, the sone of Saphan, and to Abdon, the sone of Mycha, and to Saphan, the scryuen, and to Asaie, the seruaunt of the kyng,
21 “Nendeni mkamuulize Bwana kwa ajili yangu na kwa ajili ya mabaki walioko Israeli na Yuda kuhusu yale yaliyoandikwa ndani ya kitabu hiki ambacho kimepatikana. Hasira ya Bwana ni kubwa mno ambayo imemwagwa juu yetu kwa sababu baba zetu hawakulishika neno la Bwana wala hawajatenda kulingana na yale yote yaliyoandikwa katika Kitabu hiki.”
and seide, Go ye, and preie the Lord for me, and for the resydue men of Israel and of Juda, on alle the wordis of this book, which is foundun. For greet veniaunce of the Lord hath droppid on vs, for oure fadris kepten not the wordis of the Lord, to do alle thingis that ben writun in this book.
22 Hilkia pamoja na wale wote mfalme aliokuwa amewatuma pamoja naye wakaenda kuzungumza na nabii mke aitwaye Hulda, aliyekuwa mke wa Shalumu mwana wa Tokhathi, mwana wa Hasra mtunzaji wa chumba cha mavazi. Hulda aliishi Yerusalemu, katika Mtaa wa Pili.
Therfor Helchie yede, and thei that weren sent togidere of the king, to Olda, the prophetesse, the wijf of Sellum, sone of Thecuath, sone of Asra, kepere of clothis, which Olda dwellide in Jerusalem in the secounde warde; and thei spaken to hir the wordis, whiche we telden bifore.
23 Akawaambia, “Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli: Mwambieni yule mtu aliyewatuma ninyi kwangu,
And sche answeride to hem, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Seie ye to the man, that sente you to me,
24 ‘Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana: Nitaleta maafa juu ya mahali hapa na watu wake, laana zote zilizoandikwa ndani ya hicho kitabu ambazo zimesomwa mbele ya mfalme wa Yuda.
The Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal brynge ynne yuels on this place, and on the dwelleris therof, and alle the cursyngis that ben writun in this book, which thei redden bifor the kyng of Juda.
25 Kwa sababu wameniacha mimi na kufukiza uvumba kwa miungu mingine na kunighadhibisha kwa kazi yote ya mikono yao, hivyo hasira yangu itamwagwa juu ya mahali hapa, wala haitatulizwa.’
For thei han forsake me, and han sacrified to alien goddis, for to terre me to wrathfulnesse in alle the werkis of her hondis; therfor my strong veniaunce schal droppe on this place, and it schal not be quenchid.
26 Mwambieni mfalme wa Yuda, ambaye amewatuma kumuuliza Bwana, ‘Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli kuhusu maneno uliyoyasikia:
But speke ye thus to the kyng of Juda, that sente you to preye the Lord, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, For thou herdist the wordis of the book,
27 Kwa kuwa moyo wako ulikuwa msikivu na ulijinyenyekeza mbele za Mungu uliposikia kile nilichosema dhidi ya mahali hapa na watu wake na kwa sababu ulijinyenyekeza mbele zangu na uliyararua mavazi yako na kulia mbele zangu, nimekusikia, asema Bwana.
and thin herte is maad neisch, and thou art mekid in the siyt of the Lord of these thingis that ben seide ayens this place and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and thou hast reuerensid my face, and hast to-rente thi clothis, and hast wepte bifor me; also Y haue herd thee, seith the Lord.
28 Basi nitakukusanya kwa baba zako, nawe utazikwa kwa amani. Macho yako hayataona maafa yote nitakayoleta juu ya mahali hapa na juu ya wote wanaoishi hapa.’” Kwa hiyo wakampelekea mfalme jibu lake.
For now Y schal gadere thee to thi fadris, and thou schalt be borun in to thi sepulcre in pees; and thin iyen schulen not se al yuel, which Y schal brynge yn on this place, and on the dwelleris therof. Therfor thei telden to the king alle thingis, whiche Olda hadde seid.
29 Kisha mfalme akawaita pamoja wazee wote wa Yuda na Yerusalemu.
And aftir that he hadde clepid togidere alle the eldere men of Juda and of Jerusalem,
30 Akapanda kwenda hekaluni mwa Bwana pamoja na watu wa Yuda, watu wa Yerusalemu, makuhani na Walawi, watu wote, wakubwa kwa wadogo. Akasoma wakiwa wanasikia maneno yote ya Kitabu cha Agano, ambacho kilikuwa kimepatikana katika Hekalu la Bwana.
he stiede in to the hows of the Lord, and togidere alle the men of Juda, `and the dwelleris of Jerusalem, preestis, and dekenes, and al the puple, fro the leeste `til to the moste; to whiche herynge in the hows of the Lord, the kyng redde alle the wordis of the book.
31 Mfalme akasimama karibu na nguzo yake na kufanya upya Agano mbele za Bwana ili kumfuata Bwana na kuzishika amri zake, maagizo na sheria kwa moyo wake wote na kwa roho yake yote na ili kuyatii maneno ya Agano yaliyoandikwa katika kitabu hiki.
And he stood in his trone, and smoot a boond of pees bifor the Lord, for to `go aftir hym, and to kepe the comaundementis, and witnessyngis, and iustifiyngis of hym, in al his herte and in al his soule; and to do tho thingis that weren writun in that book, which he hadde red.
32 Ndipo akamtaka kila mmoja katika Yerusalemu na Benyamini kuweka ahadi zao wenyewe kwa hilo Agano, watu wa Yerusalemu wakafanya hivyo kwa kufuata Agano la Bwana, Mungu wa baba zao.
And he chargide greetli on this thing alle men, that weren foundun in Jerusalem and Beniamyn; and the dwellers of Jerusalem diden aftir the couenaunt of the Lord God of her fadris.
33 Yosia akaondoa machukizo yote ya sanamu kutoka nchi yote iliyokuwa mali ya Waisraeli na akawataka wale wote waliokuwako katika Israeli wamtumikie Bwana Mungu wao. Kwa muda wote alioishi, hawakushindwa kumfuata Bwana, Mungu wa baba zao.
Therfor Josie dide awei alle abhomynaciouns fro alle the cuntreis of the sones of Israel; and he made alle men, that weren residue in Israel, to serue her Lord God; in alle the daies of his lijf thei yeden not awei fro the Lord God of her fadris.
