2 Chronicles 29

1 Hesekiah sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kàndínlọ́gbọ̀n orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ sì ni Abijah ọmọbìnrin Sekariah.

Hezekiah began to reign when he was five and twenty years old; and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

2 Ó sì ṣe ohun tí ó tọ́ ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ Dafidi ti ṣe.

And he did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father had done.

3 Ní oṣù àkọ́kọ́ ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní ìjọba rẹ̀, ó sì ṣí àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn ilé Olúwa ó sì tún wọn ṣe.

He in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Jehovah, and repaired them.

4 Ó sì mú àwọn àlùfáà wá àti àwọn ọmọ Lefi, ó sì kó wọn jọ yíká ìta ìlà-oòrùn.

And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the broad place on the east,

5 Ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ gbọ́ tèmi, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Lefi! Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́ nísinsin yìí kí ẹ sì ya ilé Olúwa Ọlọ́run sí mímọ́, kí ẹ sì kó ohun àìmọ́ baba mi jáde kúrò ní ibi mímọ́.

and said unto them, Hear me, ye Levites; now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of Jehovah, the God of your fathers, and carry forth the filthiness out of the holy place.

6 Àwọn baba wa jẹ́ aláìṣòótọ́; wọ́n sì ṣe ohun àìtọ́ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa, wọ́n sì kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀. Wọ́n sì yí ojú wọn padà kúrò ní ibùgbé Olúwa, wọ́n sì pa ẹ̀yìn wọn dà sí i.

For our fathers have trespassed, and done that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of Jehovah, and turned their backs.

7 Wọ́n sì tún ti ìlẹ̀kùn ìloro náà pẹ̀lú, wọ́n sì pa fìtílà. Wọn kò sì sun tùràrí tàbí pèsè ẹbọ sísun si ibi mímọ́ si Ọlọ́run Israẹli.

Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered burnt-offerings in the holy place unto the God of Israel.

8 Nítorí náà, ìbínú Olúwa ti ru sókè wá sórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu ó sì ti fi wọ́n ṣe ohun èlò fún wàhálà, àti ìdààmú àti ẹ̀sín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe fi ojú rẹ̀ rí i.

Wherefore the wrath of Jehovah was upon Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to be tossed to and fro, to be an astonishment, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes.

9 Ìdí nìyí tí àwọn baba wa ṣe ṣubú nípa idà àti ìdí tí àwọn ọmọkùnrin àti ọmọbìnrin àti àwọn aya wa tiwọn kó wọ́n ní ìgbèkùn.

For, lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.

10 Nísinsin yìí ó wà ní ọkàn mi láti bá Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli dá májẹ̀mú. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìbínú rẹ̀ kíkan kí ó lè yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wa.

Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with Jehovah, the God of Israel, that his fierce anger may turn away from us.

11 Àwọn ọmọ mi, ẹ má ṣe jáfara nísinsin yìí, nítorí tí Olúwa ti yàn yín láti dúró níwájú rẹ̀ láti sin, kí ẹ sì máa ṣe ìránṣẹ́ níwájú rẹ̀ àti láti sun tùràrí.”

My sons, be not now negligent; for Jehovah hath chosen you to stand before him, to minister unto him, and that ye should be his ministers, and burn incense.

12 Nígbà náà àwọn ọmọ Lefi wọ̀nyí múra láti ṣe iṣẹ́: nínú àwọn ọmọ Kohati, Mahati ọmọ Amasai: àti Joẹli ọmọ Asariah; nínú àwọn ọmọ Merari, Kiṣi ọmọ Abdi àti Asariah ọmọ Jehaleeli; nínú àwọn ọmọ Gerṣoni, Joah, ọmọ Simma àti Edeni ọmọ Joah;

Then the Levites arose, Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah;

13 nínú àwọn ọmọ Elisafani, Ṣimri àti Jeieli; nínú àwọn ọmọ Asafu, Sekariah àti Mattaniah;

and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;

14 nínú àwọn ọmọ Hemani, Jehieli àti Ṣimei; nínú àwọn ọmọ Jedutuni, Ṣemaiah àti Usieli.

and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.

15 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ti kó ara wọn jọ pọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin wọn, wọ́n sì ya ara wọn sí mímọ́, wọ́n sì lọ láti gbá ilé Olúwa mọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba ti pa á láṣẹ, ẹ tẹ̀lé ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.

And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and went in, according to the commandment of the king by the words of Jehovah, to cleanse the house of Jehovah.

16 Àwọn àlùfáà sì wọ inú ilé Olúwa lọ́hùn ún lọ láti gbá a mọ́. Wọ́n sì gbé e jáde sí inú àgbàlá ilé Olúwa gbogbo ohun àìmọ́ tí wọ́n rí nínú ilé Olúwa. Àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì mú u wọ́n sì gbangba odò Kidironi.

And the priests went in unto the inner part of the house of Jehovah, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of Jehovah into the court of the house of Jehovah. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad to the brook Kidron.

17 Wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìyàsímímọ́ ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní oṣù kìn-ín-ní, àti ní ọjọ́ kẹjọ oṣù náà wọ́n sì dé ìloro Olúwa. Fún ọjọ́ mẹ́jọ mìíràn sí i, wọ́n sì ya ilé Olúwa sí mímọ́ fúnra rẹ̀. Wọ́n sì parí ní ọjọ́ kẹrìndínlógún oṣù kìn-ín-ní.

Now they began on the first [day] of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of Jehovah; and they sanctified the house of Jehovah in eight days: and on the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end.

18 Nígbà náà wọn sì lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba Hesekiah láti lọ jábọ̀ fún un: “Àwa ti gbá ilé Olúwa mọ́, pẹpẹ ẹbọ sísun pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun ẹbọ rẹ̀, àti tábìlì àkàrà ìfihàn, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun èlò.

Then they went in to Hezekiah the king within [the palace], and said, We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah, and the altar of burnt-offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the table of showbread, with all the vessels thereof.

19 A ti pèsè a sì ti yà sí mímọ́ gbogbo ohun èlò tí ọba Ahasi ti sọ di aláìmọ́ nínú àìṣòótọ́ rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó jẹ́ ọba; nísinsin yìí, wọ́n wà níwájú pẹpẹ Olúwa.”

Moreover all the vessels, which king Ahaz in his reign did cast away when he trespassed, have we prepared and sanctified; and, behold, they are before the altar of Jehovah.

20 Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ọba Hesekiah sì kó olórí àwọn ìjòyè jọ, ó sì lọ sókè ilé Olúwa.

Then Hezekiah the king arose early, and gathered the princes of the city, and went up to the house of Jehovah.

21 Wọ́n sì mú akọ màlúù méje wá, àti àgbò méje, àti ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn méje àti òbúkọ méje gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún ìjọba, fún ibi mímọ́ àti fún Juda. Ọba pàṣẹ fun àwọn àlùfáà, àwọn ọmọ Aaroni, láti ṣe èyí lórí pẹpẹ Olúwa.

And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he-goats, for a sin-offering for the kingdom and for the sanctuary and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the altar of Jehovah.

22 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì pa akọ màlúù, àwọn àlùfáà mú ẹ̀jẹ̀ náà, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n ara pẹpẹ. Bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni nígbà tí wọ́n pa àgbò, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọ́n orí pẹpẹ. Nígbà náà wọ́n sì pa ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn, wọ́n sì fi ẹ̀jẹ̀ wọn ara pẹpẹ.

So they killed the bullocks, and the priests received the blood, and sprinkled it on the altar: and they killed the rams, and sprinkled the blood upon the altar: they killed also the lambs, and sprinkled the blood upon the altar.

23 Òbúkọ fún ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni wọ́n gbé wá síwájú ọba àti ìjọ ènìyàn, wọ́n sì gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn.

And they brought near the he-goats for the sin-offering before the king and the assembly; and they laid their hands upon them:

24 Àwọn àlùfáà wọn sì pa òbúkọ, wọ́n sì gbé ẹ̀jẹ̀ kalẹ̀ lórí pẹpẹ fún ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ láti ṣe ètùtù fún gbogbo Israẹli, nítorí ọba ti pàṣẹ kí a ṣe ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ fún gbogbo Israẹli.

and the priests killed them, and they made a sin-offering with their blood upon the altar, to make atonement for all Israel; for the king commanded [that] the burnt-offering and the sin-offering [should be made] for all Israel.

25 Ó sì mú àwọn Lefi dúró nínú ilé Olúwa pẹ̀lú Kimbali, ohun èlò orin olókùn àti dùùrù ní ọ̀nà tí a ti paláṣẹ fún wọn láti ọ̀dọ̀ Dafidi àti Gadi aríran ọba àti Natani wòlíì. Èyí ni a pàṣẹ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa láti ọwọ́ àwọn wòlíì rẹ̀.

And he set the Levites in the house of Jehovah with cymbals, with psalteries, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, and of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was of Jehovah by his prophets.

26 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ Lefi sì dúró pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin Dafidi, àti àwọn àlùfáà pẹ̀lú ìpè wọn.

And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.

27 Hesekiah sì pa á láṣẹ láti rú ẹbọ sísun lórí pẹpẹ, bí ẹbọ sísun náà ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, orin sí Olúwa bẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìpè àti pẹ̀lú ohun èlò orin Dafidi ọba Israẹli.

And Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt-offering upon the altar. And when the burnt-offering began, the song of Jehovah began also, and the trumpets, together with the instruments of David king of Israel.

28 Gbogbo ìjọ ènìyàn náà sì wólẹ̀ sìn, àwọn akọrin kọrin, àwọn afùnpè sì fọn ìpè, gbogbo wọ̀nyí sì wà bẹ́ẹ̀ títí ẹbọ sísun náà fi parí tán.

And all the assembly worshipped, and the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded; all this [continued] until the burnt-offering was finished.

29 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ṣe ìparí ẹbọ rírú, ọba àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tẹ ara wọn ba, wọ́n sì sìn.

And when they had made an end of offering, the king and all that were present with him bowed themselves and worshipped.

30 Pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú Hesekiah ọba, àti àwọn ìjòyè pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi, láti fi ọ̀rọ̀ Dafidi àti ti Asafu aríran, kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa: wọ́n sì fi inú dídùn kọrin ìyìn, wọ́n sì tẹrí wọn ba, wọ́n sì sìn.

Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praises unto Jehovah with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. And they sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshipped.

31 Nígbà náà ni Hesekiah dáhùn, ó sì wí pé, nísinsin yìí, ọwọ́ yín kún fún ẹ̀bùn fún Olúwa, ẹ súnmọ́ ìhín, kí ẹ sì mú ẹbọ àti ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ wá sínú ilé Olúwa. Ìjọ ènìyàn sì mú ẹbọ àti ọrẹ-ọpẹ́ wá; àti olúkúlùkù tí ọkàn rẹ̀ fẹ́, mú ẹbọ sísun wá.

Then Hezekiah answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves unto Jehovah; come near and bring sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of Jehovah. And the assembly brought in sacrifices and thank-offerings; and as many as were of a willing heart [brought] burnt-offerings.

32 Iye ẹbọ sísun, tí ìjọ ènìyàn mú wá, sì jẹ́ àádọ́rin akọ màlúù, àti ọgọ́rùn-ún àgbò, àti igba ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn, gbogbo wọ̀nyí sì ni fún ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa.

And the number of the burnt-offerings which the assembly brought was threescore and ten bullocks, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs: all these were for a burnt-offering to Jehovah.

33 Àwọn ohun ìyàsímímọ́ sì jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀ta màlúù, àti ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta àgùntàn.

And the consecrated things were six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.

34 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn àlùfáà kò pọ̀ tó, wọn kò sì le bó gbogbo àwọn ẹran ẹbọ sísun náà: nítorí náà àwọn arákùnrin wọn, àwọn Lefi ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́, títí iṣẹ́ náà fi parí, àti títí àwọn àlùfáà ìyókù fi yà wọ́n sí mímọ́: nítorí àwọn ọmọ Lefi ṣe olóòtítọ́ ní ọkàn ju àwọn àlùfáà lọ láti ya ara wọn sí mímọ́.

But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt-offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves; for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.

35 Àti pẹ̀lú, àwọn ẹbọ sísun pàpọ̀jù, pẹ̀lú ọ̀rá ẹbọ àlàáfíà, pẹ̀lú ẹbọ ohun mímu fún ẹbọ sísun. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a sì tún bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ ìsìn ilé Olúwa.

And also the burnt-offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace-offerings, and with the drink-offerings for every burnt-offering. So the service of the house of Jehovah was set in order.

36 Hesekiah sì yọ̀, àti gbogbo ènìyàn pé, Ọlọ́run ti múra àwọn ènìyàn náà sílẹ̀, nítorí lójijì ni a ṣe nǹkan náà.

And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, because of that which God had prepared for the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
