< 2 Kings 22 >
1 Josiah jẹ́ ọmọ ọdún mẹ́jọ nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kànlélọ́gbọ̀n. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Jedida ọmọbìnrin Adaiah; ó wá láti Boskati.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Jedidah, daughter of Adaiah of Bozcath.
2 Ó sì ṣe èyí tí ó dára lójú Olúwa, ó sì rìn ní ọ̀nà Dafidi baba a rẹ̀, kò sì yípadà sí apá ọ̀tún tàbí sí apá òsì.
And he did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand nor to the left.
3 Ní ọdún kejìdínlógún tí ó fi jẹ ọba. Ọba Josiah rán akọ̀wé, Ṣafani ọmọ Asalia, ọmọ Meṣullamu, sí ilé Olúwa. Ó wí pé,
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, [that] the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,
4 “Gòkè lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Hilkiah olórí àlùfáà, kí o sì jẹ́ kí ó ṣírò iye owó tí a mú wá sí ilé Olúwa, tí àwọn olùṣọ́nà ti gbà lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.
Go up to Hilkijah the high priest, that he may sum up the money which is brought into the house of Jehovah, which the doorkeepers have gathered of the people,
5 Ẹ sì jẹ́ kí wọn ó fi lé àwọn ọkùnrin tí a ti yàn láti bojútó iṣẹ́ náà lórí ilé Olúwa. Kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ọkùnrin san án fún àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ tí ó ń tún ilé Olúwa ṣe.
and let them give it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of Jehovah; and let them give it to those that do the work in the house of Jehovah, to repair the breaches of the house,
6 Àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà, àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé àti àwọn akọ́lé. Bákan náà ni wọ́n ra igi àti òkúta ọlọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ láti fi tún tẹmpili ṣe.
to the carpenters and the builders and the masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò ní láti ṣe ìṣirò fún owó náà tí a fi fún wọn, nítorí wọ́n ṣe òtítọ́.”
But no reckoning was made with them of the money that was given into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
8 Hilkiah olórí àlùfáà sọ fún Ṣafani akọ̀wé pé, “Èmi rí ìwé òfin nílé Olúwa.” Ó fi fún Ṣafani, ẹni tí ó kà á.
And Hilkijah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of Jehovah. And Hilkijah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 Nígbà náà, Ṣafani akọ̀wé lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọba. Ó sì sọ fún un pé, “Àwọn ìjòyè rẹ ti san owó náà tí ó wà nínú ilé Olúwa. Èmi sì ti fi lé ọwọ́ àwọn tí ó ń ṣe iṣẹ́ náà àti àwọn alábojútó nílé Olúwa.”
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again and said, Thy servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of Jehovah.
10 Nígbà náà Ṣafani akọ̀wé sọ fún ọba pé, “Hilkiah àlùfáà ti fún un ní ìwé kan.” Ṣafani kà lára rẹ̀ níwájú ọba.
And Shaphan the scribe informed the king saying, Hilkijah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
11 Nígbà tí ọba gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó wà nínú ìwé òfin, ó sì fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya.
And it came to pass when the king heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his garments.
12 Ó pa àṣẹ yìí fún Ahikamu àlùfáà, Hilkiah ọmọ Ṣafani, Akbori ọmọ Mikaiah, àti Ṣafani akọ̀wé àti Asaiah ìránṣẹ́ ọba.
And the king commanded Hilkijah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king, saying,
13 “Lọ, ẹ béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa fún mi àti fún àwọn ènìyàn àti fún gbogbo Juda nípa ohun tí a kọ sínú ìwé yìí tí a ti rí. Títóbi ni ìbínú Olúwa tí ó ń jó sí wa nítorí àwọn baba wa kò tẹ̀lé ọ̀rọ̀ inú ìwé yìí; wọn kò ṣe ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun tí a kọ níbẹ̀ nípa wa.”
Go, inquire of Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book which is found; for great is the wrath of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do according to all that is written [there] for us.
14 Hilkiah àlùfáà, Ahikamu àti Akbori Ṣafani pẹ̀lú Asaiah, lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ wòlíì obìnrin Hulda láti lọ bá a sọ̀rọ̀, ẹni tí ó jẹ́ aya Ṣallumu ọmọ Tikfa ọmọ Harhasi alábojútó ibi ìpa aṣọ mọ́ sí. Ó ń gbé ní Jerusalẹmu ní ìdàkejì.
And Hilkijah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe: now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter [of the town]; and they spoke with her.
15 Ó wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, Sọ fún ọkùnrin tí ó rán an yín sí mi,
And she said to them, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me,
16 ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: Èmi yóò mú ibi wá sí ibí àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun tí a kọ sínú ìwé tí ọba Juda ti kà.
Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the words of the book that the king of Judah hath read.
17 Nítorí tí wọ́n ti kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì tún sun tùràrí fún ọlọ́run mìíràn. Wọ́n sì mú mi bínú nípa gbogbo àwọn òrìṣà tí wọ́n ti fi ọwọ́ wọn dá. Ìbínú mi yóò ru sí ibí yìí, kì yóò sì rọlẹ̀.’
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my fury is kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
18 Sọ fún ọba Juda tí ó rán yín láti béèrè lọ́wọ́ Olúwa, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí nípa ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì tí ìwọ ti gbọ́.
But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Jehovah, thus shall ye say to him: Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel touching the words which thou hast heard:
19 Nítorí tí ọkàn rẹ rọ̀, tí ìwọ sì ti rẹ ara rẹ sílẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa, nígbà tí ìwọ gbọ́ èyí tí mo sọ sí ibí yìí àti sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ pé wọn yóò di ahoro àti ẹni ègún tí ìwọ sì fa aṣọ ọ̀ rẹ ya pẹ̀lú níwájú mi. Èmi ti gbọ́ tìrẹ, ni Olúwa wí.
Because thy heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before Jehovah, when thou heardest what I spoke against this place and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and didst rend thy garments and weep before me, I also have heard [thee], saith Jehovah.
20 Nítorí náà èmi yóò kó ọ jọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn baba à rẹ, a ó sì sin ọ́ ní àlàáfíà. Ojú rẹ kì yóò rí gbogbo àwọn ibi tí èmi yóò mú wá bá ibí yìí.’” Bẹ́ẹ̀ wọ́n mú èsì rẹ̀ padà tọ ọba wá.
Therefore, behold, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil that I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
