Вторая книга Паралипоменон 35
1 И сотвори Иосиа во Иерусалиме пасху Господу Богу своему, и пожре пасху в четвертыйнадесять день месяца перваго:
Now Josiah kept the Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem, and it was immolated on the fourteenth day of the first month.
2 и постави священники на стражах их, и укрепи их на дела дому Господня,
And he appointed the priests in their offices, and he exhorted them to minister in the house of the Lord.
3 и рече левитом сильным во всем Израили, да освятятся Господу и поставят кивот святый в дому Господни. И поставиши кивот святый во храме, егоже созда Соломон сын Давида царя Израилева. И рече царь: несть вам на раменах носити ничтоже: ныне убо служите Господу Богу вашему и людем Его Израилю,
Also, he spoke with the Levites, by whose instruction all of Israel was sanctified to the Lord, saying: “Place the ark in the sanctuary of the temple, which Solomon, the son of David, the king of Israel, built. For never again shall you carry it. Instead, now you shall minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.
4 и уготовайтеся по домом отечеств ваших и по чредам вашым, по писанию Давида царя Израилева и рукою Соломона сына его,
And prepare yourselves by your houses and families, within each division, just as David, the king of Israel, instructed, and just as his son Solomon has written.
5 и стойте во храме по разделением домов отечеств ваших во братии вашей сынех людских, и по части дому отечества в левитех:
And minister in the sanctuary, by the Levitical families and companies.
6 и пожрите пасху и святая уготовайте братии вашей, еже сотворити по словеси Господню, (еже глагола) рукою Моисеовою.
And having been sanctified, immolate the Passover. And then prepare your brothers, so that they may be able to act in accord with the words which the Lord has spoken by the hand of Moses.”
7 И даде начатки Иосиа сыном людским овцы и агнцы и козлы от коз, вся на пасху, и всех обретеных в число тридесять тысящ, и волов три тысящы, сия от царева имения.
After this, Josiah gave to all the people, those who had been found there at the solemnity of the Passover, thirty thousand lambs and young goats from the flocks, and other kinds of small cattle, and also three thousand oxen. All these were from the substance of the king.
8 И началницы его даша начатки людем и священником и левитом: даде же и Хелкиа и Захариа и Иеиил началницы священником дому Господня, и даша на пасху овец и агнцев и козлищ две тысящы шесть сот и волов триста.
Also, his rulers offered what they had vowed freely, as much for the people as for the priests and Levites. Moreover, Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house of the Lord, gave to the priests, in order to observe the Passover, two thousand six hundred small cattle, and three hundred oxen.
9 Хонениа же и Ванеа, и Самеа и Нафанаил брат его, и Асавиа и Иеиил и Иозавад, началницы левитов, даша левитом на пасху пять тысящ овец и волов пять сот.
And Conaniah, with Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, indeed also Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, rulers of the Levites, gave to the rest of the Levites, in order to celebrate the Passover, five thousand small cattle, and five hundred oxen.
10 И уготовано бысть служение, и сташа священницы в чине своем и левити по разделением своим по повелению цареву,
And the ministry was prepared. And the priests stood in their office, and the Levites also stood in their companies, according to the order of the king.
11 и пожроша пасху, и пролияша священницы рукама своима кровь, и левити одираху кожы:
And the Passover was immolated. And the priests sprinkled the blood with their hand, and the Levites drew away the pelts of the holocausts.
12 и уготоваша всесожжения предати им по разделению, по домом отечеств сыном людским, принести Господеви всесожжения, якоже писано есть в книзе закона Моисеова: тако и заутра:
And they put these aside, so that they might give them to each one, by their houses and families, and so that they might be offered to the Lord, just as it was written in the book of Moses. And with the oxen, they acted similarly.
13 и испекоша пасху на огни по чину, и святая свариша в медницах и в котлех, и предуспе им, и разделиша всем сыном людским:
And they roasted the Passover above fire, in accord with what was written in the law. Yet truly, the victims of peace offerings they boiled in cauldrons and kettles and pots. And they promptly distributed these to all the common people.
14 себе же и священником потом уготоваша, яко в возношении всесожегаемых и туков даже до нощи священницы (быша не праздни), и левити уготоваша им и братии их сыном Аароним.
Then afterward, they made preparations for themselves and for the priests. Indeed, the priests had been occupied in the oblations of the holocausts and the fat offerings, even until night. Therefore, the Levites made preparations for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron, last.
15 И певцы сынове Асафовы (стояху) в чине своем по повелению Давида, и Асафа и Емана и Идифума пророков царевых: и началницы и дверницы всех врат, имже не бе возможно отлучитися от службы святых, понеже братия их левити уготоваша им (брашна).
Now the singers, the sons of Asaph, were standing in their order, according to the instruction of David, and of Asaph and Heman and Jeduthun, the prophets of the king. Truly, the porters kept watch at each gate, so as not to depart from their ministry even for one moment. And for this reason, their brothers, the Levites, prepared foods for them.
16 И управися и уготовася вся служба Господня в день той, да сотворят пасху и принесут всесожжения на олтарь Господень по повелению царя Иосии.
And so, the entire worship ritual of the Lord was completed on that day, so that they observed the Passover and offered holocausts upon the altar of the Lord, in accord with the precept of king Josiah.
17 И сотвориша сынове Израилевы, иже обретени бяху, пасху во время то и праздник опресноков седмь дний.
And the sons of Israel, who had been found there, kept the Passover at that time, with the solemnity of unleavened bread, for seven days.
18 И не бысть пасхи подобныя той во Израили от дний Самуила пророка, и вси царие Израилева не сотвориша пасхи, юже сотвори Иосиа и священницы и левити, и весь Иуда и Израиль, иже обретен бысть, и обитающии во Иерусалиме, Господу.
There was no Passover similar to this one in Israel, from the days of Samuel the prophet. And neither did anyone, out of all the kings of Israel, keep such a Passover as did Josiah, the priests and Levites, and all those of Judah and Israel who had been found, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
19 Во осмоенадесять лето царства Иосиина сия пасха празднована бысть.
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah, this Passover was celebrated.
20 И изыде фараон Нехао царь Египетский на царя Ассирийскаго на реку Евфрат, еже ратовати его в Хархамисе. И изыде во сретение ему Иосиа царь.
After Josiah had repaired the temple, Neco, the king of Egypt, ascended to fight at Carchemish, beside the Euphrates. And Josiah went out to meet him.
21 И посла к нему послы, глаголя: что мне и тебе, царю Иудин? Не противу тебе днесь иду воевати, но на место брани моея: и Бог рече потщатися мне: внемли ты о Бозе иже со мною, да не убиет тя.
But he sent messengers to him, saying: “What is there between me and you, O king of Judah? I have not come against you today. Instead, I am fighting against another house, to which God instructed me to go promptly. Refrain from acting against God, who is with me, otherwise he may kill you.”
22 И не возврати Иосиа лица своего от него, но ратовати его укрепися, ниже послуша словес Нехаовых, яже от уст Божиих, но иде, да воюет на поли Магеддо.
Josiah was not willing to return. Instead, he prepared for war against him. Neither would he agree to the words of Neco from the mouth of God. In truth, he traveled so that he might do battle in the field of Megiddo.
23 И устрелиша стрелцы в царя Иосию. И рече царь отроком своим: изведите мене (от брани), яко изнемогох зело.
And there, having been wounded by archers, he said to his servants: “Lead me away from the battle. For I have been severely wounded.”
24 И сведоша его отроцы его с колесницы, и в другую колесницу посадиша его, яже бяше ему, и привезоша его во Иерусалим, и умре и погребен бысть со отцы своими: и весь Иуда и Иерусалим плакаша о Иосии.
And they took him from the chariot, into another chariot which was following him, as was the custom of kings. And they transported him to Jerusalem. And he died, and he was buried in the mausoleum of his fathers. And all of Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him,
25 И Иеремиа возрыда по Иосии, и глаголаша вси князи и княгини плачь по Иосии даже до днесь: и даша его в повеление Израилю, и се, писано есть в рыданиих.
most of all Jeremiah. All the singing men and women repeat his lamentations over Josiah, even to the present day. And this has become like a law in Israel. Behold, it is found written in the Lamentations.
26 Прочая же словеса Иосиина и упование его бяху писана в законе Господни:
Now the rest of the words of Josiah, and his mercies, which were instructed by the law of the Lord,
27 дела же его, первая и последняя, се, писана суть в книзе царей Израилевых и Иудиных.
and also his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
