1Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
1Nak queßrakeß chi ninkßeîc, eb laj Israel li cuanqueb Jerusalén queßcôeb saß eb li tenamit li cuanqueb saß xcuênt Judá. Queßxjuqßui li nînki pec li nequeßxlokßoni cuiß li yîbanbil dios ut queßxjori lix jalam ûch lix Asera. Queßxjuqßui li naßajej li najt xteram ut eb li artal li cuanqueb yalak bar saß lix naßajeb li ralal xcßajol laj Judá, laj Benjamín, laj Efraín ut laj Manasés. Nak queßxchoy xsachbal chixjunil, eb laj Israel quilajeßcôeb saß lix naßajeb saß lix tenamiteb.
2Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Yahweh.
2Li rey Ezequías quixqßueheb cuißchic chi chßûtal eb laj tij ut eb laj levita, aß yal cßaßru lix cßanjeleb li junjûnk. Queßxcßat li mayej ut queßmayejac re xcßambaleb rib li tenamit saß usilal riqßuin li Kâcuaß. Queßcßanjelac chiru li Dios ut queßbantioxin ut queßxbicha xlokßal li Kâcuaß saß eb li oquebâl re lix templo li Dios.
3He appointed also the king’s portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Yahweh.
3Li rey quixqßue li mayej xul li nequeßxcßat rajlal ekßela ut rajlal ecuu joß ajcuiß li nequeßxcßat saß li hilobâl cutan. Quixqßue ajcuiß li nequeßxmayeja saß xyoßlajic li po, ut reheb li ninkße li queßxbânu joß tzßîbanbil saß lix chakßrab li Dios.
4Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Yahweh.
4Li rey quixye reheb li tenamit li cuanqueb Jerusalén nak teßxqßue li mayej li tento teßxcßul laj tij ut eb laj levita re nak teßxkßaxtesi ribeb chi cßanjelac chiru li Kâcuaß.
5As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
5Nak queßrabi resil li esilal aßin, queßxqßue chi nabal li xbên ru li racuîmkeb laj Israel. Queßxqßue ajcuiß li vino, li aceite, li xyaßal cab, ut li xbên ru li racuîmkeb. Ut queßxqßue ajcuiß li junjûnk saß xlajêtkil re chixjunil li cßaßru cuan reheb.
6The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Yahweh their God, and laid them by heaps.
6Eb laj Israel ut eb laj Judá li cuanqueb saß eb li tenamit saß xcuênt Judá queßxqßue ajcuiß li junjûnk saß xlajêtkil reheb lix cuacax ut lix carner. Queßxqßue chixjunil li queßxyechißi re li Kâcuaß lix Dioseb. Ut queßxchßutub aran chiru li Dios.
7In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
7Queßxtiquib xchßutubanquil li mayej aßin saß li rox po ut queßrakeß saß li xcuuk po.
8When Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Yahweh, and his people Israel.
8Nak laj Ezequías ut eb li nequeßtenkßan re queßril chixjunil li mayej tûbtu aran, queßxlokßoni li Kâcuaß ut queßxbantioxi chiruheb laj Israel lix tenamit.
9Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
9Laj Ezequías quixpatzß reheb laj tij ut eb laj levita chirix li mayej li tûbtu aran.
10Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, “Since people began to bring the offerings into the house of Yahweh, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Yahweh has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.”
10Laj Azarías li xbênil aj tij xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Sadoc quixye: —Chalen nak eb li tenamit queßxtiquib xqßuebal lix mayej junelic cuan li katzacaêmk. Nocotzacan chi us xban nak li Kâcuaß quirosobtesiheb lix tenamit. Chixjunil li cuan arin, aßan li na-elaßan, chan.
11Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in the house of Yahweh; and they prepared them.
11Laj Ezequías quixye reheb nak teßxyîb eb li naßajej saß li templo li tâxocmânk cuiß li mayej li nequeßxqßue li tenamit. Ut joßcan qui-uxman.
12They brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
12Ut saß eb li naßajej aßan queßxxoc li xbên ru li racuîmkeb li queßxqßue chokß xmayejeb ut li junjûnk saß xlajêtkil joß ajcuiß chixjunil li mayej li ac kßaxtesinbil chiru li Kâcuaß. Ut queßxxakab laj Conanías laj levita re nak aßan tâcßuluk re rochben laj Simei li rîtzßin.
13Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of God’s house.
13Ut queßxxakabeb ajcuiß eb li cuînk aßin chixtenkßanquileb: laj Jehiel, laj Azazías, laj Nahat, laj Asael, laj Jerimot, laj Jozabad, laj Eliel, laj Ismaquías, laj Mahat ut laj Benaía. Aßaneb aßin li queßxakabâc chixtenkßanquileb laj Conanías ut laj Simei li rîtzßin xbaneb li rey Ezequías ut laj Azarías li nataklan saß lix templo li Dios.
14Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of Yahweh, and the most holy things.
14Laj Coré li ralal laj Imna laj levita, aßan li nacßacßalen saß li oquebâl li cuan saß li este, ut aßan ajcuiß li quixakabâc chixcßulbal li mayej li qui-ala saß xchßôleb xqßuebal re li Dios. Ut aßan ajcuiß li najeqßuin re li mayej li kßaxtesinbil re li Dios.
15Under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by divisions, as well to the great as to the small:
15Cuanqueb ajcuiß li queßtenkßan re laj Coré chixjeqßuinquil saß tîquilal li cßaßruheb re laj tij aß yal cßaßru lix cßanjeleb, joß tîx, joß toj sâjeb. Eb li cuînk aßin cuanqueb saß eb li tenamit li cuanqueb cuiß eb laj tij. Aßaneb aßin li cuînk: laj Edén, laj Miniamín, laj Jesúa, laj Semaías, laj Amarías ut laj Secanías.
16besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the house of Yahweh, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions;
16Ut queßxjeqßui ajcuiß reheb li cocß têlom li ac xeßxbânu oxib chihab li tzßîbanbil xcßabaßeb saß li hu li tzßîbanbil cuiß xcßabaßeb li junjûnk. Aßaneb li teßoc saß lix templo li Kâcuaß chi cßanjelac aß yal cßaßru xcßanjel li junjûnk.
17and those who were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers’ houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
17Ut queßxjeqßui ajcuiß reheb laj tij li tzßîbanbil xcßabaßeb saß li hu li tzßîbanbil cuiß xcßabaßeb laj tij, ut reheb ajcuiß laj levita li ac xeßxbânu junmay chihab aß yal joß qßuialeb saß li jûnk chßûtal ut aß yal cßaßru lix cßanjeleb.
18and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
18Eb aßin tzßîbanbileb xcßabaß rochbeneb li rixakil ut eb li ralal ut eb lix rabin. Queßxcßul li cßaßru reheb xban nak eb aßan kßaxtesinbileb chi cßanjelac chiru li Kâcuaß.
19Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
19Saß chixjunileb li tenamit cuanqueb cuînk xakabanbileb re teßxjeqßui li cßaßruheb re laj tij, li ralal xcßajol laj Aarón, li cuanqueb saß eb li tenamit malaj ut saß cßalebâl. Ut queßxjeqßui ajcuiß li cßaßru reheb laj levita li tzßîbanbil xcßabaßeb.
20Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he worked that which was good and right and faithful before Yahweh his God.
20Joßcaßin quixbânu li rey Ezequías saß chixjunil li naßajej Judá. Quixbânu li us chiru li Kâcuaß. Quicuan saß tîquilal ut saß xyâlal chiru li Kâcuaß lix Dios.Quixqßue xchßôl chixbânunquil li cßanjel saß lix templo li Dios ut quixbânu li naxye saß li chakßrab. Xban nak quixsicß li Dios chi anchal xchßôl, joßcan nak us qui-el riqßuin li cßaßru quixbânu.
21In every work that he began in the service of God’s house, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
21Quixqßue xchßôl chixbânunquil li cßanjel saß lix templo li Dios ut quixbânu li naxye saß li chakßrab. Xban nak quixsicß li Dios chi anchal xchßôl, joßcan nak us qui-el riqßuin li cßaßru quixbânu.
