Вторая книга Паралипоменон 24

1 Седми лет бе Иоас, егда царствовати нача, и четыредесять лет царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Савиа от Вирсавеи.

Joas was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Sabia of Bersabee.

2 Сотвори же Иоас угодное пред Господем во вся дни Иодаа священника.

And Joas did that which right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jodae the priest.

3 И поят ему Иодай жены две, и родиша сыны и дщери.

And Jodae took to himself two wives, and they bore sons and daughters.

4 И бысть по сих, и взыде на сердце Иоасу, да возновит дом Господень.

And it came to pass afterward that it came into the heart of Joas to repair the house of the Lord.

5 И собра священники и левиты и рече им: идите во грады Иудины, и соберите от всего Израиля сребро ко обновлению храма Господня от лета до лета, и поспешно сотворите. Левити же не потщашася.

And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out into the cities of Juda, and collect money of all Israel to repair the house of the Lord from year to year, and make haste to speak [of it]. But the Levites hasted not.

6 И призва царь Иоас Иодаа началника и рече ему: почто не надсматрял еси левитов, еже принести от Иуды и от Иерусалима, еже уставлено есть от Моисеа человека Божия, егда собра Израиля в скинию свидения?

And king Joas called Jodae the chief, and said to him, Why have you not looked after the Levites, so that they should bring from Juda and Jerusalem that which was prescribed by Moses the man of God, when he assembled Israel at the tabernacle of witness?

7 Гофолиа бо бе нечестива, и сынове ея разориша дом Божий, яко святая дому Господня сотвориша Ваалиму.

For Gotholia was a transgressor, and her sons tore down the house of God; for they offered the holy things of the house of the Lord to Baalim.

8 И повеле царь, да сотворят ковчежец и поставят при вратех Господних извне,

And the king said, Let a box be made, and let it be put at the gate of the house of the Lord without.

9 и да проповедят во Иудеи и во Иерусалиме, приносити Господу, якоже устави Моисей раб Божий над Израилем в пустыни.

And let [men] proclaim in Juda an in Jerusalem, that [the people] should bring to the Lord, as Moses the servant of God spoke concerning Israel in the wilderness.

10 И даша вси началницы и вси людие, и вношаху и влагаху в ковчежец, дондеже наполнися.

And all the princes and all the people gave, and brought in, and cast into the box until it was filled.

11 И бысть егда приношаху ковчежец к настоятелем царевым руками левитскими, и егда увидеша, яко умножися сребро, и прихождаше писарь царев и настоятель великаго жерца, и выбираху из ковчежца, и (паки) поставляху на место его: тако творяху от дне до дне, и собраша сребра много.

And it came to pass, when they brought in the box to the officers of the king by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that the money was more than sufficient, then came the king's scribe, and the officer of the high priest, and emptied the box, and restored it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and collected much money.

12 И вдаде е царь и Иодай жрец творящым дела на дело дому Господня: и наимаху каменосечцы и древодели, да устрояют дом Господень, и ковачы железу и меди, да укрепят дом Господень.

And the king and Jodae the priest gave it to the workmen employed in the service of the house of the Lord, and they hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the Lord, also smiths and braziers to repair the house of the Lord.

13 И творяху творящии дела, и взыде долгота дел руками их, и возставиша дом Господень в состояние (прежнее) его, и укрепиша.

And the workmen wrought, and the works prospered in their hands, and they established the house of the Lord on its foundation, and strengthened [it].

14 Егда же совершиша, принесоша ко царю и ко Иодаю останок сребра, из негоже сотвориша сосуды в дом Господень, сосуды в служение всесожжений, и кадилницы златыя и сребряныя, и приношаху всесожжения в дому Господни непрестанно, во вся дни Иодаевы.

And when they had finished [it], they brought to the king and to Jodae the remainder of the money, and they made vessels for the house of the Lord, vessels of service for whole burnt offerings, and gold and silver [censers]: and they offered up whole burnt offerings in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Jodae.

15 И состареся Иодай исполнен дний, и умре сый ста тридесяти лет внегда скончатися ему:

And Jodae grew old, being full of days, and he died, being a hundred and thirty years old at his death.

16 и погребоша его во граде Давидове со царми, понеже сотвори благое со Израилем и с Богом и с домом Его.

And they buried him with the kings in the city of David, because he had dealt well with Israel, and with God and his house.

17 И бысть по скончании Иодаеве, внидоша началницы Иудины и поклонишася царю: тогда послуша их царь.

And it came to pass after the death of Jodae, [that] the princes of Juda went in, and did obeisance to the king. Then the king listened to them.

18 И оставиша церковь Господа Бога отец своих и служаху Астарте и истуканным: и бысть гнев (Господень) на Иуду и Иерусалим в день той.

And they forsook the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and served the Astartes and idols: and there was wrath upon Juda and Jerusalem in that day.

19 И посла к ним пророки, да обратятся ко Господу, и не послушаша: и засвидетелствова им, и не покоришася.

yet he sent prophets to them, to turn them to the Lord; but they listened not: and he testified to them, but they obeyed not.

20 И Дух Божий облече Азарию священника сына Иодаева, и ста пред людьми и рече им: сия глаголет Господь: почто преступаете повеления Господня? Не поспешится вам, яко остависте Господа, и оставит вас.

And the Spirit of God came upon Azarias the son of Jodae the priest, and he stood up above the people, and said, Thus says the Lord, Why do you transgress the commandments of the Lord? so shall you not prosper; for you have forsaken the Lord, and he will forsake you.

21 И нападоша на него и побиша и камением по повелению Иоаса царя, во дворе дому Господня.

And they conspired against him, and stone him by command of king Joas in the court of the Lord's house.

22 И не воспомяну Иоас царь милосердия, еже сотвори Иодай отец его с ним, но уби сына его: иже, егда умираше, рече: да видит и судит Господь.

So Joas remembered not the kindness which his father Jodae had exercised towards him, but killed his son. And as he died, he said, The Lord look upon [it], and judge.

23 И бысть по скончании лета, воста на него сила Сирская, и прииде на Иуду и на Иерусалим, и убиша вся началники в людех в церкви, и весь плен их послаша ко царю в Дамаск:

And it came to pass after the end of the year, [that] the host of Syria went up against him, and came against Juda and Jerusalem: and they killed all the chiefs of the people among the people, and all their spoils they sent to the king of Damascus.

24 зане в малых мужех прииде сила Сирская, и Бог предаде в руце их силу многу зело, зане оставиша Господа Бога отец своих: и на Иоаса сотвори суд.

For the army of Syria came with few men, yet God gave into their hands a very large army, because they had forsaken the God of their fathers; and he brought judgments on Joas.

25 И по отшествии их от него, оставлену ему сущу в болезнех великих, и нападоша на него раби его за кровь священника сына Иодаева, и убиша его на постели его, и умре: и погребоша его во граде Давидове, но не погребоша его во гробех царских.

And after they had departed from him, when they had left him in sore diseases, then his servants conspired against him because of the blood of the son of Jodae the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died, and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchre of the kings.

26 Нападшии же на него, Завед сын Семаафов Амманитянин и Иозавед сын Самарифов Моавитянин,

And they that conspired against him were Zabed the son of Samaath the Ammanite, and Jozabed the son of Samareth the Moabite.

27 и сынове его вси, и приступиша к нему пять. И прочая словес его, се, написана в летописце царстем. И воцарися Амасиа сын его вместо его.

And all his sons, and the five came to him: and the other [matters], behold, they are written in the book of the kings. And Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
