1 Yosia bedii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia awotwe, na odii hene wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia aduasa baako.
Josie was of eiyte yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede in Jerusalem oon and thritti yeer.
2 Ɔyɛɛ nea ɛsɔ Awurade ani, yɛɛ nea ne tete agya Dawid yɛe no bi. Wamfi adetreneeyɛ ho.
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 Yosia fii ase hwehwɛɛ ne tete agya Dawid Nyankopɔn akyi kwan bere a na ɔda so yɛ abofra a wadi ade mfe awotwe no. Ne mfe dumien so no, odwiraa Yuda ne Yerusalem, sɛee abosonsom nsɔree so nyinaa, Asera nnua, ahoni a wɔasen ne nsɛsode a wɔagu no nyinaa.
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 Ɔhwɛ ma wobubuu Baal afɔremuka no ne nnuhuam afɔremuka no nyinaa gui. Ɔma wɔdwerɛw Asera nnua ne ahoni nyinaa, na wɔtow petee awufo a wɔbɔɔ saa afɔre no nna so.
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 Ɔhyew akɔmfo no nnompe no wɔ wɔn ankasa afɔremuka so, nam so dwiraa Yuda ne Yerusalem.
Ferthermore he brente the boonys of preestis in the auteris of idols, and he clenside Juda and Jerusalem.
6 Ɔyɛɛ saa ara wɔ Manase, Efraim ne Simeon nkurow so de koduu Naftali.
But also he destriede alle idols in the citees of Manasses, and of Effraym, and of Symeon, `til to Neptalym.
7 Ɔsɛee abosonsomfo afɔremuka, Asera nnua, na ɔyam ahoni no muhumuhu. Odwiriw nnuhuam afɔremuka a ɛwɔ Israelman mu nyinaa, na ɔsan kɔɔ Yerusalem.
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 Nʼadedi mfe dunwɔtwe so no a owiee asase no ne asɔredan no ho dwira no, Yosia yii Asalia babarima Safan, Maaseia a ɔyɛ Yerusalem amrado ne Yoahas babarima Yoa, adehye abakɔsɛm kyerɛwfo, sɛ wonsiesie Awurade, ne Nyankopɔn asɔredan no.
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 Wɔde sika a Lewifo a wɔsom sɛ aponanohwɛfo agyigyee wɔ Onyankopɔn Asɔredan ho no maa ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia. Manase ne Efraim nkurɔfo ne Israel nkae nyinaa ne Yuda ne Benyamin ne Yerusalemfo na wɔde akyɛde no bae.
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 Ɔde sika no maa nnipa a wɔayi wɔn sɛ wɔnhwɛ, nsiesie Awurade Asɔredan no. Na wotuaa wɔn a wɔyɛɛ adwuma no ka.
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 Wɔbɔɔ nnuadwumfo ne adansifo paa, tɔɔ abo a wɔatwa a wɔde besiesie afasu no ne nnua a wɔde bɛyɛ nsɛmso ne mpuran. Wosiesie nea anka Yuda ahemfo a wodii kan no rema asɛe no.
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 Adwumayɛfo no de nokwaredi yɛɛ adwuma. Yahat ne Obadia a wɔyɛ Lewifo a wofi Merarifo abusua mu, ne Sakaria ne Mesulam a wɔyɛ Lewifo a wofi Kohatfo abusua mu na wɔhwɛɛ adwumayɛfo no so. Lewifo a wɔaka a wɔn nyinaa wɔ nnwontode ho nimdeɛ no,
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 wɔma wɔhwɛɛ adwumayɛfo akuw ahorow no so. Na afoforo bi nso yɛɛ adwuma sɛ akyerɛwfo, mpanyimfo ne aponanohwɛfo.
Sotheli ouer them that baren birthuns to dyuerse vsis weren the scribis, and maistris of the dekenes, and porteris.
14 Na ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia rekyerɛkyerɛw sika a wɔagyigye wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no ho no, ohuu Awurade mmara nhoma a wɔnam Mose so de mae no.
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 Na Hilkia ka kyerɛɛ Safan a ɔyɛ asennii kyerɛwfo no se, “Mahu mmara nhoma no wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu.” Na Hilkia de nhoma mmobɔwee no maa Safan.
And he seide to Saphan, the writere, Y haue founde the book of the lawe in the hows of the Lord.
16 Safan de nhoma mmobɔwee no kɔmaa ɔhene kae se, “Wo mpanyimfo no reyɛ biribiara a wɔkyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
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 Wɔatua sika a wogyigyee wɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu no na wɔde ahyɛ wɔn a wɔhwɛ so no ne adwumayɛfo no nsa.”
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 Safan ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no se, “Ɔsɔfopanyin Hilkia de nhoma mmobɔwee bi ama me.” Na Safan kenkan kyerɛɛ ɔhene.
ferthermore Helchie, the preest, took to me this book. And whanne he hadde rehersid this book in the presence of the kyng,
19 Bere a ɔhene no tee mmara no mu nsɛm no, ɔde ahometew sunsuan ne ntade mu.
and he hadde herd the wordis of the lawe, he to-rente hise clothis; and he comaundide to Helchie,
20 Ɔhyɛɛ Hilkia, Safan babarima Ahikam, Mika babarima Abdon, asennii kyerɛwfo Safan ne ɔhene fotufo Asaia se,
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 “Monkɔ Asɔredan no mu na mo ne Awurade nkɔkasa mma me ne Israel ne Yuda nkae nyinaa. Mummisa no nsɛm a wɔakyerɛw wɔ saa nhoma mmobɔwee a wɔahu no mu ho nsɛm. Awurade abufuw aba yɛn so, efisɛ yɛn agyanom anni Awurade asɛm so. Yɛnyɛ nea nhoma mmobɔwee yi ka sɛ yɛnyɛ no.”
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 ne mmarima a wɔaka no kɔɔ odiyifobea Hulda a na ɔyɛ Tikwat babarima Salum yere ne Hasra a na ɔhwɛ Asɔredan mu adakaten so no nena nkyɛn, wɔ Yerusalem fa bi a wɔfrɛ hɔ se Misne.
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 Ɔbea no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, akasa! Monkɔka nkyerɛ onipa a ɔsomaa mo no se,
And sche answeride to hem, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Seie ye to the man, that sente you to me,
24 ‘Sɛnea Awurade se ni: Akyinnye biara nni ho sɛ, mɛsɛe saa kurow yi ne emu nnipa. Nnome a wɔakyerɛw wɔ nhoma mmobɔwee a moakenkan yi mu nyinaa bɛba mu.
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 Efisɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda apa me na wɔsom abosonsomfo anyame. Ɛno nti, me bo afuw wɔn yiye wɔ biribiara a wɔayɛ ho. Mʼabufuw behwie agu saa beae ha, na biribiara rentumi nsiw ano.’
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 Na monkɔ Yudahene a ɔsomaa mo sɛ monkɔhwehwɛ Awurade no nkyɛn, na monka nkyerɛ no se, ‘Sɛɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn, ka fa asɛm a motee mprempren no ho.
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 Bere a wotee asɛm a meka de tiaa saa kuropɔn yi ne mu nnipa no, ɛhaw wo ma wobrɛɛ wo ho ase wɔ Onyankopɔn anim. Wobrɛɛ wo ho ase, de ahometew sunsuan wʼatade mu, de ahonu suu wɔ mʼanim. Enti nokware, mate wo nne, Awurade na ose.
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 Meremma amanehunu a mahyehyɛ atia kuropɔn yi ne emu nnipa no mma mu, kosi sɛ wubewu na wɔasie wo asomdwoe mu. Worenhu amane a mede bɛba beae yi so.’” Enti wɔsan de ɔbea no nkra kɔmaa ɔhene no.
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 Na ɔhene no frɛɛ Yuda ne Yerusalem ntuanofo nyinaa.
And aftir that he hadde clepid togidere alle the eldere men of Juda and of Jerusalem,
30 Na ɔhene no ne Yuda ne Yerusalem manfo nyinaa ne asɔfo ne Lewifo, nnipa no nyinaa, fi ɔkɛse so kosi akumaa so, kɔɔ Awurade Asɔredan no mu. Ɛhɔ na ɔhene no kenkan apam nhoma a wohuu wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu no kyerɛɛ wɔn.
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 Ɔhene no gyinaa nʼafa wɔ afadum no nkyɛn, na otii apam no mu wɔ Awurade anim. Ɔhyɛɛ bɔ sɛ ofi ne koma ne ne kra nyinaa mu bedi Awurade mmaransɛm, ahyɛde ne mmara so. Ɔhyɛɛ bɔ sɛ, obedi apam no mu nhyehyɛe a wɔakyerɛw wɔ nhoma mmobɔwee no mu no so.
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 Na ɔka kyerɛɛ obiara a ɔwɔ Yerusalem ne nnipa a wɔwɔ Benyamin no se, wɔnhyɛ bɔ saa ara. Ɔmanfo a wɔwɔ Yerusalem yɛɛ saa no, wɔde tii wɔne Onyankopɔn, wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn apam no mu.
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 Enti Yosia yiyii ahoni a ɛyɛ akyiwade no fii Israel asase no nyinaa so. Na ɔhyɛɛ sɛ obiara nsom Awurade, wɔn Nyankopɔn. Na ne nkwanna a aka no mu no nyinaa, wɔannan wɔn akyi ankyerɛ Awurade wɔn agyanom Nyankopɔn no da.
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.
