< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلثَّانِي 22 >

كَانَ يُوشِيَّا ٱبْنَ ثَمَانِ سِنِينٍ حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ إِحْدَى وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ يَدْيَدَةُ بِنْتُ عَدَايَةَ مِنْ بُصْقَةَ. ١ 1
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسَارَ فِي جَمِيعِ طَرِيقِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، وَلَمْ يَحِدْ يَمِينًا وَلَا شِمَالًا. ٢ 2
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.
وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّامِنَةَ عَشْرَةَ لِلْمَلِكِ يُوشِيَّا أَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ شَافَانَ بْنَ أَصَلْيَا بْنِ مَشُّلَامَ ٱلْكَاتِبَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلًا: ٣ 3
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
«ٱصْعَدْ إِلَى حِلْقِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ، فَيَحْسُبَ ٱلْفِضَّةَ ٱلْمُدْخَلَةَ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّتِي جَمَعَهَا حَارِسُو ٱلْبَابِ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، ٤ 4
Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:
فَيَدْفَعُوهَا لِيَدِ عَامِلِي ٱلشُّغْلِ ٱلْمُوَكَّلِينَ بِبَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَيَدْفَعُوهَا إِلَى عَامِلِي ٱلشُّغْلِ ٱلَّذِي فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ لِتَرْمِيمِ ثُلَمِ ٱلْبَيْتِ: ٥ 5
And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,
لِلنَّجَّارِينَ وَٱلْبَنَّائِينَ وَٱلنَّحَّاتِينَ، وَلِشِرَاءِ أَخْشَابٍ وَحِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ لِأَجْلِ تَرْمِيمِ ٱلْبَيْتِ». ٦ 6
To carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
إِلَّا أَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يُحَاسَبُوا بِٱلْفِضَّةِ ٱلْمَدْفُوعَةِ لِأَيْدِيهِمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ إِنَّمَا عَمِلُوا بِأَمَانَةٍ. ٧ 7
However, there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
فَقَالَ حِلْقِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ لِشَافَانَ ٱلْكَاتِبِ: «قَدْ وَجَدْتُ سِفْرَ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ». وَسَلَّمَ حِلْقِيَّا ٱلسِّفْرَ لِشَافَانَ فَقَرَأَهُ. ٨ 8
And Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
وَجَاءَ شَافَانُ ٱلْكَاتِبُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ وَرَدَّ عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ جَوَابًا وَقَالَ: «قَدْ أَفْرَغَ عَبِيدُكَ ٱلْفِضَّةَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَةَ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ وَدَفَعُوهَا إِلَى يَدِ عَامِلِي ٱلشُّغْلِ وُكَلَاءِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ». ٩ 9
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Your servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD.
وَأَخْبَرَ شَافَانُ ٱلْكَاتِبُ ٱلْمَلِكَ قَائِلًا: «قَدْ أَعْطَانِي حِلْقِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ سِفْرًا». وَقَرَأَهُ شَافَانُ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١٠ 10
And Shaphan the scribe showed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ ٱلْمَلِكُ كَلَامَ سِفْرِ ٱلشَّرِيعَةِ مَزَّقَ ثِيَابَهُ. ١١ 11
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.
وَأَمَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ حِلْقِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنَ وَأَخِيقَامَ بْنَ شَافَانَ وَعَكْبُورَ بْنَ مِيخَا وَشَافَانَ ٱلْكَاتِبَ وَعَسَايَا عَبْدَ ٱلْمَلِكِ قَائِلًا: ١٢ 12
And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah a servant of the king’s, saying,
«ٱذْهَبُوا ٱسْأَلُوا ٱلرَّبَّ لِأَجْلِي وَلِأَجْلِ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَلِأَجْلِ كُلِّ يَهُوذَا مِنْ جِهَةِ كَلَامِ هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ ٱلَّذِي وُجِدَ، لِأَنَّهُ عَظِيمٌ هُوَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي ٱشْتَعَلَ عَلَيْنَا، مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ آبَاءَنَا لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا لِكَلَامِ هَذَا ٱلسِّفْرِ لِيَعْمَلُوا حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ عَلَيْنَا». ١٣ 13
Go you, inquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.
فَذَهَبَ حِلْقِيَّا ٱلْكَاهِنُ وَأَخِيقَامُ وَعَكْبُورُ وَشَافَانُ وَعَسَايَا إِلَى خَلْدَةَ ٱلنَّبِيَّةِ، ٱمْرَأَةِ شَلُّومَ بْنِ تِقْوَةَ بْنِ حَرْحَسَ حَارِسِ ٱلثِّيَابِ. وَهِيَ سَاكِنَةٌ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي ٱلْقِسْمِ ٱلثَّانِي وَكَلَّمُوهَا. ١٤ 14
So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelled in Jerusalem in the college; ) and they communed with her.
فَقَالَتْ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: قُولُوا لِلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَكُمْ إِلَيَّ: ١٥ 15
And she said to them, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Tell the man that sent you to me,
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: هَأَنَذَا جَالِبٌ شَرًّا عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ وَعَلَى سُكَّانِهِ، كُلَّ كَلَامِ ٱلسِّفْرِ ٱلَّذِي قَرَأَهُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا، ١٦ 16
Thus says the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil on this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read:
مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُونِي وَأَوْقَدُوا لِآلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى لِكَيْ يُغِيظُونِي بِكُلِّ عَمَلِ أَيْدِيهِمْ، فَيَشْتَعِلُ غَضَبِي عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ وَلَا يَنْطَفِئُ. ١٧ 17
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
وَأَمَّا مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِي أَرْسَلَكُمْ لِتَسْأَلُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، فَهَكَذَا تَقُولُونَ لَهُ: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ جِهَةِ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعْتَ: ١٨ 18
But to the king of Judah which sent you to inquire of the LORD, thus shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, As touching the words which you have heard;
مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ رَقَّ قَلْبُكَ وَتَوَاضَعْتَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ حِينَ سَمِعْتَ مَا تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهِ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ وَعَلَى سُكَّانِهِ أَنَّهُمْ يَصِيرُونَ دَهَشًا وَلَعْنَةً، وَمَزَّقْتَ ثِيَابَكَ وَبَكَيْتَ أَمَامِي. قَدْ سَمِعْتُ أَنَا أَيْضًا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٩ 19
Because your heart was tender, and you have humbled yourself before the LORD, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have rent your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you, says the LORD.
لِذَلِكَ هَأَنَذَا أَضُمُّكَ إِلَى آبَائِكَ، فَتُضَمُّ إِلَى قَبْرِكَ بِسَلَامٍ، وَلَا تَرَى عَيْنَاكَ كُلَّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا جَالِبُهُ عَلَى هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ». فَرَدُّوا عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ جَوَابًا. ٢٠ 20
Behold therefore, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered into your grave in peace; and your eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring on this place. And they brought the king word again.
