2 Ljetopisa 31
1 Kad se sve to svršilo, svi Izraelovi sinovi koji su se našli ondje zađoše po judejskim gradovima te su razbijali stupove, sjekli ašere i obarali uzvišice i žrtvenike po svem Judinu, Benjaminovu, Efrajimovu i Manašeovu plemenu dokle god nisu završili. Onda se svi Izraelovi sinovi vratiše svaki na svoj posjed, u svoje gradove.
And when all these thinges were finished, all Israel that were found in the cities of Iudah, went out and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake downe the hie places, and the altars thorowout all Iudah and Beniamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, vntil they had made an ende: afterwarde all the children of Israel returned euery man to his possession, into their owne cities.
2 Ezekija je opet uredio svećeničke i levitske redove po njihovim redovima, svakoga prema njegovoj službi, svećenike i levite, za paljenice i za pričesnice, da služe, slave i hvale Boga na vratima Jahvina tabora.
And Hezekiah appoynted the courses of the Priests and Leuites by their turnes, euery man according to his office, both Priestes and Leuites, for the burnt offring and peace offrings, to minister and to giue thankes, and to prayse in the gates of the tentes of the Lord.
3 Odredio je kraljevski doprinos od svoga imanja za paljenice, za paljenice jutarnje i večernje i za paljenice što se prinose subotom, za mlađaka i na blagdane, kako je napisano u Zakonu Jahvinu.
(And the Kings portion was of his owne substance for the burnt offrings, euen for ye burnt offrings of the morning and of the euening, and the burnt offrings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moones, and for the solemne feastes, as it is written in the Law of the Lord)
4 Zapovjedio je narodu, jeruzalemskim stanovnicima, da daju dio svećenicima i levitima da se utvrde u Zakonu Jahvinu.
He commanded also the people that dwelt in Ierusalem, to giue a part to the Priestes, and Leuites, that they might be encouraged in the Law of the Lord.
5 Kad se to razglasilo, počeli su Izraelovi sinovi donositi najboljega žita, novog vina, ulja i meda i svakojaka poljskog priroda i donosili su obilne desetine od svega.
And when the commandement was spread, the children of Israel brought abundance of first fruites, of corne, wine, and oyle, and honie, and of all the increase of the fielde, and the tithes of all things brought they abundantly.
6 Izraelovi i Judini sinovi, koji su živjeli u judejskim gradovima, također su donosili desetinu od goveda i sitne stoke i desetinu od svetih stvari posvećenih Jahvi, njihovu Bogu; donosili su i davali sve hrpu na hrpu.
And the children of Israel and Iudah that dwelt in ye cities of Iudah, they also brought the tithes of bullockes and sheepe, and the holy tithes which were consecrate vnto the Lord their God, and laide them on many heapes.
7 Trećega su mjeseca počeli slagati u hrpe, a sedmoga su mjeseca završili.
In the thirde moneth they beganne to lay the foundation of the heapes, and finished them in the seuenth moneth.
8 Onda je došao Ezekija s knezovima i, ugledavši hrpe, blagosloviše Jahvu i njegov izraelski narod.
And when Hezekiah and the princes came, and saw the heapes, they blessed the Lord and his people Israel.
9 Potom se Ezekija propitao kod svećenika i levita za hrpe.
And Hezekiah questioned with the Priests and the Leuites concerning the heapes.
10 Odgovarajući, svećenički poglavar Azarja, od Sadokova doma, reče: “Otkako su počeli donositi ove prinose u Dom Jahvin, jedemo i siti smo, a mnogo i pretječe, jer je Jahve blagoslovio svoj narod te je preteklo ovo mnoštvo.”
And Azariah the chiefe Priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and sayde, Since the people beganne to bring the offrings into the house of the Lord, we haue eaten and haue bene satisfied, and there is left in abundance: for the Lord hath blessed his people, and this abundance that is left.
11 Tada Ezekija zapovjedi da se urede sobe u Jahvinu Domu; kad su ih spremili,
And Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord: and they prepared them,
12 počeli su onamo unositi prinose, desetine i svetinje; nad tim je bio predstojnik levit Konanija i brat mu Šimej, drugi do njega.
And caryed in the first fruites, and the tithes, and the dedicate things faithfully: and ouer them was Conaniah the Leuite, the chiefe, and Shimei his brother the seconde.
13 A Jehiel, Azazja, Nahat, Asahel, Jerimot, Jozabad, Eliel, Jismakja, Mahat i Benaja biše postavljeni kao nadglednici uz Konaniju i brata mu Šimeja, po nalogu kralja Ezekije i Azarje, predstojnika u Božjem Domu.

14 Kore, sin levita Jimne, vratar Istočnih vrata, bio je nad dragovoljnim Božjim prinosima da bi prinosio Jahvine podizanice i svetinje nad svetinjama.
And Kore the sonne of Imnah the Leuite porter towarde the East, was ouer the things that were willingly offred vnto God, to distribute the oblations of the Lord, and the holy things that were consecrate.
15 Pod njim su bili Eden, Minjamin, Ješua, Šemaja, Amarja i Šekanija po svećeničkim gradovima da savjesno dijele svojoj braći po njihovim redovima, kako velikome tako i malome -
And at his hande were Eden, and Miniamin, and Ieshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shechaniah, in the cities of the Priestes, to distribute with fidelitie to their brethren by courses, both to the great and small,
16 osim muškaraca starijih od trideset godina popisanih u rodovnicima - svima koji su dolazili u Dom Jahvin na svoj svakidašnji posao da obave obredne dužnosti po svojim redovima.
Their daily portion: beside their generation being males from three yeere olde and aboue, euen to all that entred into the house of the Lord to their office in their charge, according to their courses:
17 U rodovnike su bili popisani svećenici po obiteljima i leviti od dvadeset godina naviše po svojim službama, po svojim redovima.

And to the generation of all their children, their wiues, and their sonnes and their daughters throughout all ye Congregation: for by their fidelitie are they partakers of the holy things.
19 Aronovi sinovi, svećenici na poljskim pašnjacima svojih gradova, u svakom pojedinom gradu, bijahu poimence određeni da daju dio svakome muškarcu među svećenicima. Sve su rodovnike sastavili leviti.

20 Ezekija je uradio tako po svoj Judeji čineći što je dobro, pravo i vjerno pred Jahvom, svojim Bogom.
And thus did Hezekiah throughout al Iudah, and did well, and vprightly, and truely before the Lord his God.
21 U svakom poslu koji je počeo za službu Božjega Doma, i u zakonu i u zapovijedi tražeći Boga, trudio se svim svojim srcem i uspijevao.
And in all the workes that he began for the seruice of the house of God, both in the Law and in the commandements, to seeke his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
