Mu mwaka wa cumi na kabiri atangira gukura mu Buyuda n'i Yeruzalemu ahasengerwa, n'inkingi za Ashera, n'amashusho yabajwe, n'amashusho y'ibicurano. ⁴Imbere ye basenya intambiro za Bāli; atemagura intambiro z'imibavu zari hejuru yazo, ajanjagura inkingi za Ashera, n'amashusho yabajwe, n'amashusho y'ibicurano, abisya bihinduka umukungugu, awukwiza hejuru y'imva z'abari babitambiye ibitambo. ⁵Atwika amagufwa y'abatambyi ku intambiro zabo, bityo akura ikibi mu Buyuda n'i Yeruzalemu. ⁶Mu mijyi ya Manase n'iya Efurayimu n'iya Simeyoni, kugeza no muri Nafutali, mu matongo yabo yose yari hirya no hino. ^a a v6 Iyo mijyi yo mu majyaruguru Yosiya yasuye yari yarasigaye ahanini ari amatongo kubera ko Abashuri bari barayigaruriye bagatwara abantu ho iminyago mu myaka myinshi ishize. ⁷Asenya intambiro, ajanjagura inkingi za Ashera n'amashusho yabajwe bihinduka umukungugu, atemagura intambiro zose z'imibavu mu Isiraheli hose.

Abari babayoboye bacunga imirimo ni Yahati na Obadiya, Abalevi bo muri bene Merari, na Zekariya na Meshulamu bo mu Bakehati; n'Abalevi, bose bakaba ari abahanga mu guhanga indirimbo, ¹³bari bashinzwe abakozi b'imirimo y'agahato, bacunga abakozi bose umurimo ku wundi. Bamwe mu Balevi bari abanditsi n'abategetsi n'abarinzi b'amarembo.

Hilukiya abona Igitabo cy'Amategeko

¹⁴Mu gukuramo amafaranga yari yazanywe mu nzu ya Data, Hilukiya umutambyi abona Igitabo cy'Amategeko ya Data, yari yaratanzwe binyujijwe kuri Musa. ¹⁵Hilukiya abwira Shafani umwanditsi ati: “Mbonye Igitabo cy'Amategeko mu nzu ya Data,” maze agiha Shafani.

¹⁶Shafani azanira umwami icyo gitabo, aramubwira ati: “Abagaragu bawe bakora ibyo bashinzwe byose. ¹⁷Basutse amafaranga yabonetse mu nzu ya Data, bashyikiriza abacunga imirimo n'abakozi ayo mafaranga.” ¹⁸Shafani umwanditsi abwira umwami ati: “Hilukiya umutambyi yampaye igitabo,” maze akirisomera umwami.

¹⁹Umwami yumvise amagambo y'Amategeko, aratabagura imyenda ye. ²⁰Umwami ategeka Hilukiya, na Ahikamu mwene Shafani, na Abudoni mwene Mika, na Shafani umwanditsi, na Asaya umugaragu w'umwami, ati: ²¹“Nimugende, mubaze Data ku bwanjye no ku basigaye muri Isiraheli no mu Buyuda, ku bijyana n'amagambo y'icyo gitabo cyabonetse. Uburakari bwe butwitiye ni bwinshi, kuko ba sogokuruza batubahirije ijambo rya Data, ngo bakore ibyanditswe muri iki gitabo byose.”

²²Nuko Hilukiya n'abagaragu b'umwami bajya kwa Hulida, umugore w'umuhanuzikazi, muka Shalumu mwene Tokati, mwene Hasura, warindaga imyambaro y'umwami. Yari atuye i Yeruzalemu mu Gace ka Kabiri. Baravugana na we iby'ibyo.

²³Arababwira ati: “Uku ni ko Data, Imana ya Isiraheli, avuga: Nimubwire umuntu wabatumye kuri jye muti: ²⁴Uku ni ko Data avuga: Dore ngiye kuzana ibyago kuri aha hantu no ku bahatuye, ari yo mivumo yose yanditswe mu gitabo basomeye umwami w'u Buyuda. ²⁵Kubera ko bantereranye bakosereza izindi mana imibavu, bakandakaza n'ibyo bakoze byose, uburakari bwanjye buzitika kuri aha hantu ntibuzime. ²⁶Ariko mubwire umwami w'u Buyuda, wabatumye kumbaza, muti: Uku ni ko Data, Imana ya Isiraheli, avuga ku bijyana n'amagambo wumvise: ²⁷Kubera ko umutima wawe woroshye, ukicisha bugufi imbere ya Data ubwo wumvise amagambo ye arwanya aha hantu n'abahatuye, ukicisha bugufi imbere yanjye, ukatabagura imyenda yawe, ukarira imbere yanjye, jyewe ubwanjye ndakwumvise, ni ko Data avuga. ²⁸Nzagusanisha na ba sogokuruza, ushyingurwe mu mva yawe mu mahoro. Amaso yawe ntazabona na kimwe mu byago ngiye kuzana kuri aha hantu no ku bahatuye.” Nuko bazanira umwami icyo gisubizo.

²⁹Nuko umwami ahamagaza abakuru bose b'u Buyuda n'i Yeruzalemu. ³⁰Umwami azamuka ajya mu nzu ya Data hamwe n'abagabo bose b'u Buyuda, n'abatuye i Yeruzalemu, n'abatambyi, n'Abalevi, n'abantu bose, abakuru n'abato. Arabasomera amagambo yose y'Igitabo cy'Isezerano cyabonetse mu nzu ya Data. ³¹Umwami ahagarara ahantu he, agirana Isezerano imbere ya Data, ngo akurikire Data, akomeze amategeko ye n'ibihamya bye n'amateka ye n'umutima we wose n'ubugingo bwe bwose, kandi asohoze amagambo y'Isezerano yanditswe muri iki gitabo. ³²Atuma abari bose i Yeruzalemu no muri Benyamini bahiga kubahiriza iryo Sezerano, nuko abatuye i Yeruzalemu bakurikiza Isezerano rya Data, Imana ya ba sekuruza. ³³Yosiya akura ibizira byose mu turere twose tw'abana ba Isiraheli, atuma abari muri Isiraheli bose bakorera Data, Imana yabo. Igihe cyose yabayeho, ntibava mu nzira yo gukurikira Data.
