وَعَمِلَ يُوشِيَّا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِصْحًا لِلرَّبِّ، وَذَبَحُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ. ١ 1
And Josias kept a passover to the Lord his God; and sacrificed the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
وَأَقَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ عَلَى حِرَاسَاتِهِمْ وَشَدَّدَهُمْ لِخِدْمَةِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢ 2
And he appointed the priests at their charges, and encouraged them for the services of the house of the Lord.
وَقَالَ لِلَّاوِيِّينَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا يُعَلِّمُونَ كُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مُقَدَّسِينَ لِلرَّبِّ: «ٱجْعَلُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلْقُدْسِ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلَّذِي بَنَاهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. لَيْسَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَحْمِلُوا عَلَى ٱلْأَكْتَافِ. ٱلْآنَ ٱخْدِمُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ وَشَعْبَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣ 3
And he told the Levites that were able [to act] in all Israel, that they should consecrate themselves to the Lord: and they put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel built: and the king said, Ye must not carry anything on your shoulders: now then minister to the Lord your God, and to his people Israel.
وَأَعِدُّوا بُيُوتَ آبَائِكُمْ حَسَبَ فِرَقِكُمْ، حَسَبَ كِتَابَةِ دَاوُدَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَحَسَبَ كِتَابَةِ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱبْنِهِ. ٤ 4
And prepare yourselves according to the houses of your families, and according to your daily courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and [the order] by the hand of his son Solomon.
وَقَفُوا فِي ٱلْقُدْسِ حَسَبَ أَقْسَامِ بُيُوتِ آبَاءِ إِخْوَتِكُمْ بَنِي ٱلشَّعْبِ وَفِرَقِ بُيُوتِ آبَاءِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، ٥ 5
And stand ye in the house according to the divisions of the houses of your families for your brethren the sons of the people; [so] also let there be for the Levites a division of the house of their family.
وَٱذْبَحُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ وَتَقَدَّسُوا وَأَعِدُّوا إِخْوَتَكُمْ لِيَعْمَلُوا حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى». ٦ 6
And kill ye the passover, and prepare [it] for your brethren, to do according to the word of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
وَأَعْطَى يُوشِيَّا لِبَنِي ٱلشَّعْبِ غَنَمًا، حُمْلَانًا وَجِدَاءً، جَمِيعَ ذَلِكَ لِلْفِصْحِ لِكُلِّ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ إِلَى عَدَدِ ثَلَاثِينَ أَلْفًا وَثَلَاثَةِ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ. هَذِهِ مِنْ مَالِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ٧ 7
And Josias gave as an offering to the children of the people, sheep, and lambs, and kids of the young of the goats, all for the passover, [even for] all that were found, in number [amounting to] thirty thousand, and three thousand calves, these [were] of the substance of the king.
وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُ قَدَّمُوا تَبَرُّعًا لِلشَّعْبِ وَٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حِلْقِيَا وَزَكَرِيَّا وَيَحْيِئِيلَ رُؤَسَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱللهِ. أَعْطَوْا ٱلْكَهَنَةَ لِلْفِصْحِ أَلْفَيْنِ وَسِتَّ مِئَةٍ، وَمِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ ثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ. ٨ 8
And his princes gave an offering to the people, and to the priests, and to the Levites: and Chelcias and Zacharias and Jeiel the chief men gave to the priests of the house of God, they even gave for the passover sheep, and lambs, and kids, two thousand six hundred, and three hundred calves.
وَكُونَنْيَا وَشِمْعِيَا وَنِثْنِئِيلُ أَخَوَاهُ وَحَشَبْيَا وَيَعِيئِيلُ وَيُوزَابَادُ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ قَدَّمُوا لِلَّاوِيِّينَ لِلْفِصْحِ خَمْسَةَ آلَافٍ، وَمِنَ ٱلْبَقَرِ خَمْسَ مِئَةٍ. ٩ 9
And Chonenias, and Banaeas, and Samaeas, and Nathanael his brother, and Asabias, and Jeiel, and Jozabad, heads of the Levites, gave an offering to the Levites for the passover, of five thousand sheep and five hundred calves.
فَتَهَيَّأَتِ ٱلْخِدْمَةُ، وَقَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ فِي مَقَامِهِمْ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ فِي فِرَقِهِمْ حَسَبَ أَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، ١٠ 10
And the service was duly ordered, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the command of the king.
وَذَبَحُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ. وَرَشَّ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ مِنْ أَيْدِيهِمْ، وَأَمَّا ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ فَكَانُوا يَسْلَخُونَ. ١١ 11
And they slew the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hand, and the Levites flayed [the victims].
وَرَفَعُوا ٱلْمُحْرَقَةَ لِيُعْطُوا حَسَبَ أَقْسَامِ بُيُوتِ ٱلْآبَاءِ لِبَنِي ٱلشَّعْبِ، لِيُقَرِّبُوا لِلرَّبِّ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي سِفْرِ مُوسَى. وَهَكَذَا بِٱلْبَقَرِ. ١٢ 12
And they prepared the whole-burnt-offering to give to them, according to the division by the houses of families, [even] to the sons of the people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses.
وَشَوَوْا ٱلْفِصْحَ بِٱلنَّارِ كَٱلْمَرْسُومِ. وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَقْدَاسُ فَطَبَخُوهَا فِي ٱلْقُدُورِ وَٱلْمَرَاجِلِ وَٱلصِّحَافِ، وَبَادَرُوا بِهَا إِلَى جَمِيعِ بَنِي ٱلشَّعْبِ. ١٣ 13
And thus [they did] till the morning. And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance; and boiled the holy [pieces] in copper vessels and caldrons, and [the feast] went on well, and they quickly served all the children of the people.
وَبَعْدُ أَعَدُّوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلِلْكَهَنَةِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ بَنِي هَارُونَ كَانُوا عَلَى إِصْعَادِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَٱلشَّحْمِ إِلَى ٱللَّيْلِ. فَأَعَدَّ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلِلْكَهَنَةِ بَنِي هَارُونَ. ١٤ 14
And after they had prepared for themselves and for the priests, for the priests [were engaged] in offering the whole-burnt-offerings and the fat until night, then the Levites prepared for themselves, and for their brethren the sons of Aaron.
وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ بَنُو آسَافَ كَانُوا فِي مَقَامِهِمْ حَسَبَ أَمْرِ دَاوُدَ وَآسَافَ وَهَيْمَانَ وَيَدُوثُونَ رَائِي ٱلْمَلِكِ. وَٱلْبَوَّابُونَ عَلَى بَابٍ فَبَابٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَحِيدُوا عَنْ خِدْمَتِهِمْ، لِأَنَّ إِخْوَتَهُمُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ أَعَدُّوا لَهُمْ. ١٥ 15
And the sons of Asaph the psalm-singers [were] at their post according to the commands of David, and Asaph, and Aeman, and Idithom, the prophets of the king: also, the chiefs and the porters of the several gates; —it was not for them to stir from the service of the holy things, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.
فَتَهَيَّأَ كُلُّ خَدَمَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ لِعَمَلِ ٱلْفِصْحِ وَإِصْعَادِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتِ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ أَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ يُوشِيَّا. ١٦ 16
So all the service of the Lord was duly ordered and prepared in that day, for keeping the passover, and offering the whole-burnt-sacrifices on the altar of the Lord, according to the command of king Josias.
وَعَمِلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمَوْجُودُونَ ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ، وَعِيدَ ٱلْفَطِيرِ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ. ١٧ 17
And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
وَلَمْ يُعْمَلْ فِصْحٌ مِثْلُهُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَيَّامِ صَمُوئِيلَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ. وَكُلُّ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَمْ يَعْمَلُوا كَٱلْفِصْحِ ٱلَّذِي عَمِلَهُ يُوشِيَّا وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ وَكُلُّ يَهُوذَا وَإِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمَوْجُودِينَ وَسُكَّانِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ١٨ 18
And there was no passover like it in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet, or any king of Israel: they kept not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Juda and Israel that were present, and the dwellers in Jerusalem, kept to the Lord.
فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّامِنَةَ عَشَرَةَ لِمُلْكِ يُوشِيَّا عُمِلَ هَذَا ٱلْفِصْحُ. ١٩ 19
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josias this passover was kept, after all these things that Josias did in the house.
بَعْدَ كُلِّ هَذَا حِينَ هَيَّأَ يُوشِيَّا ٱلْبَيْتَ، صَعِدَ نَخْوُ مَلِكُ مِصْرَ إِلَى كَرْكَمِيشَ لِيُحَارِبَ عِنْدَ ٱلْفُرَاتِ. فَخَرَجَ يُوشِيَّا لِلِقَائِهِ. ٢٠ 20
And Pharao Nechao king of Egypt went up against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates, and king Josias went to meet him.
فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ رُسُلًا يَقُولُ: «مَا لِي وَلَكَ يَا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا! لَسْتُ عَلَيْكَ أَنْتَ ٱلْيَوْمَ، وَلَكِنْ عَلَى بَيْتِ حَرْبِي، وَٱللهُ أَمَرَ بِإِسْرَاعِي. فَكُفَّ عَنِ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي مَعِي فَلَا يُهْلِكَكَ». ٢١ 21
And he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, O king of Juda? I am not come to-day to war against thee; and God has told me to hasten: beware of the God that is with me, lest he destroy thee.
وَلَمْ يُحَوِّلْ يُوشِيَّا وَجْهَهُ عَنْهُ بَلْ تَنَكَّرَ لِمُقَاتَلَتِهِ، وَلَمْ يَسْمَعْ لِكَلَامِ نخْوٍ مِنْ فَمِ ٱللهِ، بَلْ جَاءَ لِيُحَارِبَ فِي بُقْعَةِ مَجِدُّو. ٢٢ 22
However, Josias turned not his face from him, but strengthened himself to fight against him, and hearkened not to the words of Nechao by the mouth of God, and he came to fight in the plain of Mageddo.
وَأَصَابَ ٱلرُّمَاةُ ٱلْمَلِكَ يُوشِيَّا، فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِعَبِيدِهِ: «ٱنْقُلُونِي لِأَنِّي جُرِحْتُ جِدًّا». ٢٣ 23
And the archers shot at king Josias; and the king said to his servants, Take me away, for I am severely wounded.
فَنَقَلَهُ عَبِيدُهُ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ وَأَرْكَبُوهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ ٱلَّتِي لَهُ، وَسَارُوا بِهِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ فَمَاتَ وَدُفِنَ فِي قُبُورِ آبَائِهِ. وَكَانَ كُلُّ يَهُوذَا وَأُورُشَلِيمَ يَنُوحُونَ عَلَى يُوشِيَّا. ٢٤ 24
And his servants lifted him out of the chariot, and put him in the second chariot which he had, and brought him to Jerusalem; and he died, and was buried with his fathers: and all Juda and Jerusalem lamented over Josias.
وَرَثَى إِرْمِيَا يُوشِيَّا. وَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ وَٱلْمُغَنِّيَاتِ يَنْدُبُونَ يُوشِيَّا فِي مَرَاثِيهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَجَعَلُوهَا فَرِيضَةً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَهَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي ٱلْمَرَاثِي. ٢٥ 25
And Jeremias mourned over Josias, and all the chief men and chief women uttered a lamentation over Josias until this day: and they made it an ordinance for Israel, and, behold, it is written in the lamentations.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يُوشِيَّا وَمَرَاحِمُهُ حَسْبَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي نَامُوسِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٢٦ 26
And the rest of the acts of Josias, and his hope, are written in the law of the Lord.
وَأُمُورُهُ ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْأَخِيرَةُ، هَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا. ٢٧ 27
And his acts, the first and the last, behold, [they are] written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
