< 2 Kings 23 >
1 Nígbà náà ọba pe gbogbo àwọn àgbàgbà Juda àti Jerusalẹmu jọ.
Then the King sent, and there gathered vnto him all the Elders of Iudah and of Ierusalem.
2 Ó gòkè lọ sí ilé Olúwa pẹ̀lú àwọn ọkùnrin Juda, àwọn ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu, àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn wòlíì—gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn láti ibi kéékèèké sí ńlá. Ó kà á sí etí ìgbọ́ ọ wọn, gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó wà nínú ìwé májẹ̀mú, tí a ti rí nínú ilé Olúwa.
And the King went vp into the house of the Lord, with all the men of Iudah and all the inhabitants of Ierusalem with him, and the Priests and Prophets, and all the people both small and great: and he reade in their eares all the wordes of the booke of the couenant, which was found in the house of the Lord.
3 Ọba sì dúró lẹ́bàá òpó, ó sì sọ májẹ̀mú di tuntun níwájú Olúwa, láti tẹ̀lé Olúwa àti láti pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́, ìlànà àti òfin pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ẹ̀mí rẹ̀, àti láti ṣe ìwádìí àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ májẹ̀mú tí a kọ sínú ìwé yìí. Nígbà náà, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì ṣèlérí fúnra wọn sí májẹ̀mú náà.
And the King stood by the pillar, and made a couenant before the Lord, that they shoulde walke after the Lord, and keepe his commandements, and his testimonies, and his statutes with all their heart, and with all their soule, that they might accomplish the wordes of this couenant written in this booke. And all the people stood to the couenant.
4 Ọba sì pàṣẹ fún Hilkiah olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn, àlùfáà tí ó tẹ̀lé e ní ipò àti àwọn olùṣọ́nà láti yọ kúrò nínú ilé Olúwa gbogbo ohun èlò tí a ṣe fún Baali àti Aṣerah àti gbogbo ẹgbẹ́ ogun ọ̀run. Ó sì sun wọ́n ní ìta Jerusalẹmu ní pápá àfonífojì Kidironi. Ó sì kó eérú wọn jọ sí Beteli.
Then the King commanded Hilkiah the hie Priest and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the doore, to bring out of ye Temple of the Lord all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the groue, and for all the hoste of heauen, and he burnt them without Ierusalem in the fieldes of Kedron, and caryed the pouder of them into Beth-el.
5 Ó sì kúrò pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà abọ̀rìṣà tí a yàn láti ọwọ́ ọba Juda láti sun tùràrí ní ibi gíga ti ìlú Juda àti àwọn tí ó yí Jerusalẹmu ká. Àwọn tí ó ń sun tùràrí sí Baali, sí oòrùn àti òṣùpá, sí àwọn àmì ìràwọ̀ àti sí gbogbo ẹgbẹ́ ogun ọ̀run.
And he put downe the Chemarims, whom the Kings of Iudah had founded to burne incense in the hie places, and in the cities of Iudah, and about Ierusalem, and also them that burnt incense vnto Baal, to the sunne and to the moone, and to the planets, and to all the hoste of heauen.
6 Ó mú ère òrìṣà Aṣerah láti ilé Olúwa sí àfonífojì Kidironi ní ìta Jerusalẹmu, ó sì sun wọ́n níbẹ̀. Ó lọ̀ ọ́ bí àtíkè ó sì fọ́n eruku náà sórí isà òkú àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wọ́pọ̀.
And he brought out the groue from the Temple of the Lord without Ierusalem vnto the valley of Kedron, and burnt it in the valley Kedron, and stampt it to pouder, and cast the dust thereof vpon the graues of the children of the people.
7 Ó sì wó ibùgbé àwọn ọkùnrin alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà lulẹ̀. Tí ó wà nínú ilé Olúwa àti ibi tí àwọn obìnrin tí ń ṣe iṣẹ́ aṣọ híhun fún òrìṣà Aṣerah.
And hee brake downe the houses of the Sodomites, that were in the house of the Lord, where the women woue hangings for the groue.
8 Josiah kó gbogbo àwọn àlùfáà láti àwọn ìlú Juda ó sì ba ibi mímọ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì jẹ́ láti Geba sí Beerṣeba, níbi tí àwọn àlùfáà ti sun tùràrí. Ó wó àwọn ojúbọ lulẹ̀ ní ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn—ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé ti Joṣua, baálẹ̀ ìlú ńlá tí ó wà ní apá òsì ẹnu ìlẹ̀kùn ìlú ńlá.
Also he brought all the priests out of the cities of Iudah, and defiled the hie places where the Priests had burnt incense, euen from Geba to Beer-sheba, and destroyed the hie places of the gates, that were in the entring in of the gate of Ioshua the gouernour of the citie, which was at the left hand of the gate of the citie.
9 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé, àwọn àlùfáà ibi gíga kò jọ́sìn ní ibi pẹpẹ Olúwa ní Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n jẹ nínú àkàrà aláìwú pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ wọn.
Neuerthelesse the Priests of the hie places came not vp to the altar of the Lord in Ierusalem, saue onely they did eate of the vnleauened bread among their brethren.
10 Ó sì ba ohun mímọ́ Tofeti jẹ́, tí ó wà ní àfonífojì Beni-Hinnomu, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó lè lò ó fún ẹbọ rírú fún ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tàbí ọmọ rẹ̀ obìnrin nínú iná sí Moleki.
He defiled also Topheth, which was in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man shoulde make his sonne or his daughter passe through the fire to Molech.
11 Ó sì kúrò láti ẹnu-ọ̀nà àbáwọlé sí ilé Olúwa, àwọn ẹṣin tí àwọn ọba Juda ti yà sọ́tọ̀ sí oòrùn náà. Wọ́n wà nínú ilé ẹjọ́ lẹ́bàá yàrá oníṣẹ́ tí orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Natani-Meleki. Josiah sì sun àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ fún oòrùn.
He put downe also the horses that the Kings of Iudah had giuen to the sunne at the entring in of the house of the Lord, by the chamber of Nethan-melech the eunuche, which was ruler of the suburbes, and burnt the charets of the sunne with fire.
12 Ó wó o palẹ̀ pẹpẹ tí àwọn ọba Juda ti wọ́n gbé dúró ní orí òrùlé lẹ́bàá yàrá òkè ti Ahasi pẹ̀lú àwọn pẹpẹ tí Manase ti kọ́ nínú ilé ẹjọ́ méjèèjì sí ilé Olúwa. Ó ṣí wọn kúrò níbẹ̀, ó fọ́ wọn sí wẹ́wẹ́. Ó sì da ekuru wọn sínú àfonífojì Kidironi.
And the altars that were on the top of the chamber of Ahaz, which the Kings of Iudah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the Lord did the King breake downe, and hasted thence, and cast the dust of them in the brooke Kedron.
13 Ọba pẹ̀lú ba ohun mímọ́ àwọn ibi gíga jẹ́ tí ó wà ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn Jerusalẹmu ní ìhà gúúsù ti òkè ìbàjẹ́—èyí tí Solomoni ọba Israẹli ti kọ́ fún Aṣtoreti ọlọ́run ìríra àwọn ará Sidoni, fún Kemoṣi ọlọ́run ìríra àwọn ará Moabu àti fún Moleki, ọlọ́run ìríra àwọn ènìyàn Ammoni.
Moreouer the King defiled the hie places that were before Ierusalem and on the right hand of the mount of corruption (which Salomon the King of Israel had buylt for Ashtoreth the idole of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the idole of the Moabites, and for Milchom the abomination of the children of Ammon)
14 Josiah fọ́ òkúta yíyà sọ́tọ̀, ó sì gé ère Aṣerah lulẹ̀. Ó sì bo ẹ̀gbẹ̀gbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú egungun ènìyàn.
And he brake the images in pieces, and cut downe the groues and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Àní pẹpẹ tí ó wà ní Beteli ibi gíga tí Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati dá. Tí ó ti fa Israẹli láti ṣẹ̀, àní pẹpẹ náà àti ibi gíga tí ó fọ́ túútúú. Ó jó àwọn ibi gíga, ó sì lọ̀ ọ́ sí ẹ̀tù, ó sì sun ère Aṣerah pẹ̀lú.
Furthermore the altar that was at Beth-el, and the hie place made by Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat, which made Israel to sinne, both this altar and also the hie place, brake he downe, and burnt the hie place, and stampt it to powder and burnt the groue.
16 Nígbà náà, Josiah wò yíká, nígbà tí ó sì rí àwọn isà òkú tí ó wà níbẹ̀ ní ẹ̀bá òkè, ó yọ egungun kúrò lára wọn, ó sì jó wọn lórí pẹpẹ láti sọ ọ́ di èérí ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a ti kéde láti ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ó ti àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí tẹ́lẹ̀.
And as Iosiah turned himselfe, he spied the graues, that were in the mount, and sent and tooke the bones out of the graues, and burnt them vpon the altar and polluted it, according to the word of the Lord, that the man of God proclaimed, which cryed the same wordes.
17 Ọba sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni ọwọ̀n isà òkú yẹn tí mo rí?” Àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú ńlá wí pé, “Ó sàmì sí isà òkú ènìyàn Ọlọ́run tí ó wá láti Juda, tí ó sì kéde ìdojúkọ pẹpẹ Beteli, ohun kan wọ̀nyí tí ìwọ ti ṣe sí wọn.”
Then he sayde, What title is that which I see? And the men of the citie sayd vnto him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Iudah, and tolde these things that thou hast done to the altar of Beth-el.
18 “Fi sílẹ̀ nìkan,” Ó wí pé. “Má ṣe jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni ó da àwọn egungun rẹ̀ láàmú.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n dá egungun rẹ̀ sí àti ti àwọn wòlíì tí ó wá láti Samaria.
Then sayde he, Let him alone: let none remooue his bones. So his bones were saued with the bones of the Prophet that came from Samaria.
19 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe ní Beteli, Josiah sì kúrò, ó sì ba gbogbo ojúbọ òrìṣà ti ibi gíga jẹ́, tí àwọn ọba Israẹli ti kọ́ sí àwọn ìlú ní Samaria, tí ó ti mú Olúwa bínú.
Iosiah also tooke away all the houses of the hie places, which were in the cities of Samaria, which the Kings of Israel had made to anger the Lord, and did to them according to all the factes that he had done in Beth-el.
20 Josiah dúńbú gbogbo àwọn àlùfáà ibi gíga lórí pẹpẹ. Ó sì sun egungun ènìyàn lórí wọn. Nígbà náà, ó padà lọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
And he sacrificed all the Priests of the hie places, that were there vpon the altars, and burnt mens bones vpon them, and returned to Ierusalem.
21 Ọba pàṣẹ fún gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ ṣe ìrántí àjọ ìrékọjá sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ sí inú ìwé májẹ̀mú yìí.”
Then the king commanded all the people, saying, Keepe the passeouer vnto the Lord your God, as it is written in the booke of this couenant.
22 Kì í ṣe láti ọjọ́ àwọn Juda tí ó tọ́ Israẹli, ní gbogbo àwọn ọjọ́ àwọn ọba Israẹli àti àwọn ọba Juda. Ṣé wọ́n ti ṣe ìrántí àjọ ìrékọjá rí.
And there was no Passeouer holden like that from the dayes of the Iudges that iudged Israel, nor in all the dayes of the Kinges of Israel, and of the Kings of Iudah.
23 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún kejìdínlógún tí ọba Josiah, àjọ ìrékọjá yìí ni a ṣe ìrántí sí Olúwa ní Jerusalẹmu.
And in the eightenth yere of King Iosiah was this Passeouer celebrated to the Lord in Ierusalem.
24 Síwájú sí, Josiah sì lé àwọn oṣó àti àwọn ẹ̀mí ní àwọn ìdílé, àti àwọn òrìṣà àti gbogbo àwọn nǹkan ìríra tí a rí ní Juda àti ní Jerusalẹmu. Èyí ni ó ṣe kí ó le è mú ọ̀rọ̀ òfin náà ṣe ní ti òfin tí a kọ sínú ìwé tí Hilkiah àlùfáà ti rí nínú ilé Olúwa.
Iosiah also tooke away them that had familiar spirits, and the soothsayers, and the images, and the idoles, and al the abominations that were espied in the lande of Iudah and in Ierusalem, to performe the wordes of the Lawe, which were written in the booke that Hilkiah the Priest found in the house of the Lord.
25 Kò sì sí ọba kankan níwájú tàbí lẹ́yìn Josiah tí ó dàbí rẹ̀, tí ó yí padà sí olúwa tinútinú àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe tọkàntọkàn pẹ̀lú gbogbo ẹ̀mí i rẹ̀, pẹ̀lú gbogbo agbára rẹ̀ ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú gbogbo òfin Mose.
Like vnto him was there no King before him, that turned to the Lord with al his heart, and with all his soule, and with all his might according to all the Lawe of Moses, neither after him arose there anie like him.
26 Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí Olúwa kò yípadà kúrò nínú ìmúná ìbínú ńlá rẹ̀ tí ó jó sí Juda, nítorí gbogbo èyí tí Manase ti ṣe láti mú un bínú.
Notwithstanding the Lord turned not from the fiercenesse of his great wrath wherewith he was angrie against Iudah, because of all the prouocatios wherwith Manasseh had prouoked him.
27 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa wí pé, “Èmi yóò mú Juda kúrò pẹ̀lú níwájú mi, bí mo ti mú Israẹli, èmi yóò sì kó Jerusalẹmu, ìlú ńlá tí mo yàn àti ilé Olúwa yìí, nípa èyí tí mo sọ, ‘Níbẹ̀ ni orúkọ mi yóò wà?’”
Therefore the Lord saide, I will put Iudah also out of my sight, as I haue put away Israel, and will cast off this citie Ierusalem, which I haue chosen, and the house whereof I said, My name shalbe there.
28 Fún ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ nígbà ìjọba Josiah, àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ṣe, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sí inú ìwé ìtàn ayé àwọn ọba Juda?
Concerning the rest of the actes of Iosiah, and all that hee did, are they not written in the booke of the Chronicles of the Kings of Iudah?
29 Nígbà tí Josiah jẹ́ ọba, Farao Neko ọba Ejibiti gòkè lọ sí odò Eufurate láti lọ ran ọba Asiria lọ́wọ́. Ọba Josiah jáde lọ láti lọ bá a pàdé lójú ogun ṣùgbọ́n Neko dojúkọ ọ́, ó sì pa á ní Megido.
In his dayes Pharaoh Nechoh King of Egypt went vp against the King of Asshur to the riuer Perath. And King Iosiah went against him, whome when Pharaoh sawe, he slewe him at Megiddo.
30 Ìránṣẹ́ Josiah gbé ara rẹ̀ wá nínú kẹ̀kẹ́ láti Megido sí Jerusalẹmu ó sì sin ín sínú isà òkú rẹ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà mú Jehoahasi ọmọ Josiah. Ó fi àmì òróró yàn án, ó sì ṣe é ní ọba ní ipò baba a rẹ̀.
Then his seruants caryed him dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Ierusalem, and buried him in his owne sepulchre. And the people of the lande tooke Iehoahaz the sonne of Iosiah, and anointed him, and made him King in his fathers steade.
31 Jehoahasi sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́tàlélógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún oṣù mẹ́ta. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Hamutali ọmọbìnrin Jeremiah; ó wá láti Libina.
Iehoahaz was three and twentie yeere olde when he beganne to reigne, and reigned three moneths in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Hamutal the daughter of Ieremiah of Libnah.
32 Ó ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba a rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 Farao Neko sì fi sí inú ìdè ní Ribla ní ilẹ̀ Hamati, kí ó má ba à lè jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu. Ó sì tan Juda jẹ fun iye ìwọ̀n ẹgbẹ̀rin tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà kan.
And Pharaoh Nechoh put him in bondes at Riblah in the lande of Hamath, while he reigned in Ierusalem, and put the lande to a tribute of an hundreth talents of siluer, and a talent of golde.
34 Farao Neko ṣe Eliakimu ọmọ Josiah ní ọba ní ipò baba rẹ̀ Josiah. Ó sì yí orúkọ Eliakimu padà sí Jehoiakimu. Ṣùgbọ́n ó mú Jehoahasi, ó sì gbé e lọ sí Ejibiti, níbẹ̀ ni ó sì kú.
And Pharaoh Nechoh made Eliakim the sonne of Iosiah King in steade of Iosiah his father, and turned his name to Iehoiakim, and tooke Iehoahaz away, which when he came to Egypt, dyed there.
35 Jehoiakimu sì san fún Farao Neko fàdákà àti wúrà tí ó béèrè. Láti ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ó bu owó òde fún ilẹ̀ náà láti san, ó fi agbára gba fàdákà àti wúrà láti ọwọ́ àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú iye tí a pín.
And Iehoiakim gaue the siluer and the golde to Pharaoh, and taxed the land to giue the money, according to the commadement of Pharaoh: he leuyed of euery man of the people of the lande, according to his value, siluer and golde to giue vnto Pharaoh Nechoh.

Iehoiakim was fiue and twentie yere olde, when he began to reigne, and he reigned eleuen yeeres in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Zebudah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 Ó sì ṣe búburú lójú Olúwa gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba a rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
And he did euill in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
