مَلَكَ حَزَقِيَّا وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً، وَمَلَكَ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ أَبِيَّةُ بِنْتُ زَكَرِيَّا. ١ 1
And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ دَاوُدُ أَبُوهُ. ٢ 2
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.
هُوَ فيِ ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْأُولَى مِنْ مُلْكِهِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ فَتَحَ أَبْوَابَ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَرَمَّمَهَا. ٣ 3
And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.
وَأَدْخَلَ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ وَجَمَعَهُمْ إِلَى ٱلسَّاحَةِ ٱلشَّرْقِيَّةِ، ٤ 4
And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,
وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱسْمَعُوا لِي أَيُّهَا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ، تَقَدَّسُوا ٱلْآنَ وَقَدِّسُوا بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِكُمْ، وَأَخْرِجُوا ٱلنَّجَاسَةَ مِنَ ٱلْقُدْسِ، ٥ 5
and said to them, Hear, ye Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.
لِأَنَّ آبَاءَنَا خَانُوا وَعَمِلُوا ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا وَتَرَكُوهُ، وَحَوَّلُوا وُجُوهَهُمْ عَنْ مَسْكَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَأَعْطَوْا قَفًا، ٦ 6
For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.
وَأَغْلَقُوا أَيْضًا أَبْوَابَ ٱلرِّوَاقِ وَأَطْفَأُوا ٱلسُّرُجَ وَلَمْ يُوقِدُوا بَخُورًا وَلَمْ يُصْعِدُوا مُحْرَقَةً فِي ٱلْقُدْسِ لِإِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٧ 7
And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole-burnt-offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.
فَكَانَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَسْلَمَهُمْ لِلْقَلَقِ وَٱلدَّهْشِ وَٱلصَّفِيرِ كَمَا أَنْتُمْ رَاؤُونَ بِأَعْيُنِكُمْ. ٨ 8
And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes.
وَهُوَذَا قَدْ سَقَطَ آبَاؤُنَا بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَبَنُونَا وَبَنَاتُنَا وَنِسَاؤُنَا فِي ٱلسَّبْيِ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا. ٩ 9
And, behold, your fathers have been smitten with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.
فَٱلْآنَ فِي قَلْبِي أَنْ أَقْطَعَ عَهْدًا مَعَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيَرُدُّ عَنَّا حُمُوَّ غَضَبِهِ. ١٠ 10
Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.
يَا بَنِيَّ، لَا تَضِلُّوا ٱلْآنَ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱخْتَارَكُمْ لِكَيْ تَقِفُوا أَمَامَهُ وَتَخْدِمُوهُ وَتَكُونُوا خَادِمِينَ وَمُوقِدِينَ لَهُ». ١١ 11
And now be not wanting [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.
فَقَامَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ: مَحَثُ بْنُ عَمَاسَايَ وَيُوئِيلُ بْنُ عَزَرْيَا مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْقَهَاتِيِّينَ، وَمِنْ بَنِي مَرَارِي: قَيْسُ بْنُ عَبْدِي وَعَزَرْيَا بْنُ يَهْلَلْئِيلَ، وَمِنَ ٱلْجَرْشُونِيِّينَ: يُوآخُ بْنُ زِمَّةَ وَعِيدَنُ بْنُ يُوآخَ، ١٢ 12
Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Haelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.
وَمِنْ بَنِي أَلِيصَافَانَ: شِمْرِي وَيَعِيئِيلُ، وَمِنْ بَنِي آسَافَ: زَكَرِيَّا وَمَتَّنْيَا، ١٣ 13
And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:
وَمِنْ بَنِي هَيْمَانَ: يَحِيئِيلُ وَشِمْعِي، وَمِنْ بَنِي يَدُوثُونَ: شِمْعِيَا وَعُزِّيئِيلُ. ١٤ 14
and of the sons of Aeman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaisa, and Oziel.
وَجَمَعُوا إِخْوَتَهُمْ وَتَقَدَّسُوا وَأَتَوْا حَسَبَ أَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ بِكَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيُطَهِّرُوا بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٥ 15
And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.
وَدَخَلَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ إِلَى دَاخِلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِيُطَهِّرُوهُ، وَأَخْرَجُوا كُلَّ ٱلنَّجَاسَةِ ٱلَّتِي وَجَدُوهَا فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى دَارِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَتَنَاوَلَهَا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ لِيُخْرِجُوهَا إِلَى ٱلْخَارِجِ إِلَى وَادِي قَدْرُونَ. ١٦ 16
And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.
وَشَرَعُوا فِي ٱلتَّقْدِيسِ فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ. وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّامِنِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱنْتَهَوْا إِلَى رِوَاقِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَدَّسُوا بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّادِسَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱنْتَهَوْا. ١٧ 17
And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].
وَدَخَلُوا إِلَى دَاخِلٍ إِلَى حَزَقِيَّا ٱلْمَلِكِ وَقَالُوا: «قَدْ طَهَّرْنَا كُلَّ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَمَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ وَمَائِدَةَ خُبْزِ ٱلْوُجُوهِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهَا. ١٨ 18
And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole-burnt-offering, and its vessels, and the table of shew-bread, and its vessels;
وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْآنِيَةِ ٱلَّتِي طَرَحَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ آحَازُ فِي مُلْكِهِ بِخِيَانَتِهِ، قَدْ هَيَّأْنَاهَا وَقَدَّسْنَاهَا، وَهَا هِيَ أَمَامَ مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ». ١٩ 19
and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostasy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.
وَبَكَّرَ حَزَقِيَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ وَجَمَعَ رُؤَسَاءَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ وَصَعِدَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٠ 20
And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.
فَأَتَوْا بِسَبْعَةِ ثِيرَانٍ وَسَبْعَةِ كِبَاشٍ وَسَبْعَةِ خِرْفَانٍ وَسَبْعَةِ تُيُوسِ مِعْزًى ذَبِيحَةَ خَطِيَّةٍ عَنِ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ وَعَنِ ٱلْمَقْدِسِ وَعَنْ يَهُوذَا. وَقَالَ لِبَنِي هَارُونَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ أَنْ يُصْعِدُوهَا عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢١ 21
And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.
فَذَبَحُوا ٱلثِّيرَانَ، وَتَنَاوَلَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ ٱلدَّمَ وَرَشُّوهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، ثُمَّ ذَبَحُوا ٱلْكِبَاشَ وَرَشُّوا ٱلدَّمَ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، ثُمَّ ذَبَحُوا ٱلْخِرْفَانَ وَرَشُّوا ٱلدَّمَ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ. ٢٢ 22
And they slew the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they slew the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they slew the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.
ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمُوا بِتُيُوسِ ذَبِيحَةِ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَٱلْجَمَاعَةِ، وَوَضَعُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا، ٢٣ 23
And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.
وَذَبَحَهَا ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَكَفَّرُوا بِدَمِهَا عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ تَكْفِيرًا عَنْ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْمَلِكَ قَالَ إِنَّ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةَ وَذَبِيحَةَ ٱلْخَطِيَّةِ هُمَا عَنْ كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢٤ 24
And the priests slew them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole-burnt-offering, and the sin-offering [are] for all Israel.
وَأَوْقَفَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِصُنُوجٍ وَرَبَابٍ وَعِيدَانٍ حَسَبَ أَمْرِ دَاوُدَ وَجَادَ رَائِي ٱلْمَلِكِ وَنَاثَانَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ، لِأَنَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْوَصِيَّةَ عَنْ يَدِ أَنْبِيَائِهِ. ٢٥ 25
And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.
فَوَقَفَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ بِآلَاتِ دَاوُدَ، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ. ٢٦ 26
And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.
وَأَمَرَ حَزَقِيَّا بِإِصْعَادِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ. وَعِنْدَ ٱبْتِدَاءِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ ٱبْتَدَأَ نَشِيدُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَٱلْأَبْوَاقُ بِوَاسِطَةِ آلَاتِ دَاوُدَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٢٧ 27
And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole-burnt-offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole-burnt-offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.
وَكَانَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ يَسْجُدُونَ وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ يُغَنُّونَ وَٱلْمُبَوِّقُونَ يُبَوِّقُونَ. ٱلْجَمِيعُ، إِلَى أَنِ ٱنْتَهَتِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةُ. ٢٨ 28
And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole-burnt-sacrifice had been completely offered.
وَعِنْدَ ٱنْتِهَاءِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ خَرَّ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَكُلُّ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ مَعَهُ وَسَجَدُوا. ٢٩ 29
And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.
وَقَالَ حَزَقِيَّا ٱلْمَلِكُ وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ لِلَّاوِيِّينَ أَنْ يُسَبِّحُوا ٱلرَّبَّ بِكَلَامِ دَاوُدَ وَآسَافَ ٱلرَّائِي، فَسَبَّحُوا بِٱبْتِهَاجٍ وَخَرُّوا وَسَجَدُوا. ٣٠ 30
And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.
ثُمَّ أَجَابَ حَزَقِيَّا وَقَالَ: «ٱلْآنَ مَلَأْتُمْ أَيْدِيَكُمْ لِلرَّبِّ. تَقَدَّمُوا وَأْتُوا بِذَبَائِحَ وَقَرَابِينِ شُكْرٍ لِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ». فَأَتَتِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةُ بِذَبَائِحَ وَقَرَابِينِ شُكْرٍ، وَكُلُّ سَمُوحِ ٱلْقَلْبِ أَتَى بِمُحْرَقَاتٍ. ٣١ 31
Then Ezekias answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole-burnt-offerings.
وَكَانَ عَدَدُ ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أَتَى بِهَا ٱلْجَمَاعَةُ سَبْعِينَ ثَوْرًا وَمِئَةَ كَبْشٍ وَمِئَتَيْ خَرُوفٍ. كُلُّ هَذِهِ مُحْرَقَةٌ لِلرَّبِّ. ٣٢ 32
And the number of the whole-burnt-offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord.
وَٱلْأَقْدَاسُ سِتُّ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ وَثَلَاثَةُ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلضَّأْنِ. ٣٣ 33
And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.
إِلَّا إِنَّ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ كَانُوا قَلِيلِينَ فَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَسْلُخُوا كُلَّ ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتِ، فَسَاعَدَهُمْ إِخْوَتُهُمُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ حَتَّى كَمَلَ ٱلْعَمَلُ وَحَتَّى تَقَدَّسَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ. لِأَنَّ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ كَانُوا أَكْثَرَ ٱسْتِقَامَةَ قَلْبٍ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ فِي ٱلتَّقَدُّسِ. ٣٤ 34
But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole-burnt-offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.
وَأَيْضًا كَانَتِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتُ كَثِيرَةً بِشَحْمِ ذَبَائِحِ ٱلسَّلَامَةِ وَسَكَائِبِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتِ. فَٱسْتَقَامَتْ خِدْمَةُ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٣٥ 35
And the whole-burnt-offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole-burnt-sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.
وَفَرِحَ حَزَقِيَّا وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ أَعَدَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَمْرَ كَانَ بَغْتَةً. ٣٦ 36
And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God has prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.
