Вторая книга Паралипоменон 31

1 Егда же сия вся совершишася, изыде весь Израиль обретшийся во градех Иудиных, и сокрушиша идолы и посекоша дубравы, и разориша высокая и требища от всея Иудеи и Вениамина, и от Ефрема и от Манассии в конец: и возвратися весь Израиль, кийждо во одержание свое и во грады своя.

And when these things had been duly celebrated, all Israel that were found in the cities of Juda, went out, and they broke the idols, and cut down the groves. demolished the high places, and destroyed the altars, not only out of all Juda and Benjamin, but out of Ephraim also and Manasses, till they had utterly destroyed them: then all the children of Israel returned to their possessions and cities.

2 И устави Езекиа чреды священников и левитов, и чреды коегождо по служению его, священников и левитом, во всесожжение и в жертву спасения, и дабы хвалили и исповедалися и служили во вратех во дворех дому Господня.

And Ezechias appointed companies of the priests, and the Levites, by their courses, every man in his own office, to wit, both of the priests, and of the Levites, for holocausts, and for peace offerings, to minister, and to praise, and to sing in the gates of the camp of the Lord.

3 Часть же царева бысть от имения его во всесожжение утреннее и вечернее, и всесожжения в субботы и в новомесячия и в праздники писанныя в законе Господни.

And the king’s part was, that of his proper substance the holocaust should be offered always morning and evening, and on the sabbaths, and the new moons and the other solemnities, as it is written in the law of Moses.

4 И заповеда людем живущым во Иерусалиме дати часть священником и левитом, да укрепятся во служении дому Господня.

He commanded also the people that dwelt in Jerusalem, to give to the priests, and the Levites their portion, that they might attend to the law of the Lord.

5 И егда устави слово, даша много сынове Израилевы начаток пшеницы и вина и елеа и меда, и вся яже родит земля, и десятины вся принесоша зело много сынове Израилевы и Иудины.

Which when it was noised abroad in the ears of the people, the children of Israel offered in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey: and brought the tithe of all things which the ground bringeth forth.

6 И иже обитаху во градех Иудиных, и тии принесоша десятины от телцев и овец, и десятины от коз, и посвятиша Господу Богу своему, и внесоша и положиша купы многи.

Moreover the children of Israel and Juda, that dwelt in the cities of Juda, brought in the tithes of oxen, and sheep, and the tithes of holy things, which they had vowed to the Lord their God: and carrying them all, made many heaps.

7 Месяца третияго начаша купам полагати основания, и месяца седмаго и совершиша их.

In the third month they began to lay the foundations of the heaps, and in the seventh month, they finished them.

8 И вниде Езекиа и началницы, и видеша купы, и благословиша Господа и люди Его Израиля.

And when Ezechias and his princes came in, they saw the heaps, and they blessed the Lord and the people of Israel.

9 Вопроси же Езекиа священников и левитов о купах.

And Ezechias asked the priests and the Levites, why the heaps lay so.

10 И отвеща к нему Азариа священник началный в дому Садоков и рече отнележе начаша приносити начатки в дом Господень, ядохом и пихом, и оставихом даже до множества, яко благослови Господь люди Своя, и оставихом еще множество сие.

Azarias the chief priest of the race of Sadoc answered him, saying: Since the firstfruits began to be offered in the house of the Lord, we have eaten, and have been filled, and abundance is left, because the Lord hath blessed his people: and of that which is left is this great store which thou seest.

11 И повеле Езекиа еще уготовити житницы в дому Господни: и уготоваша.

Then Ezechias commanded to prepare storehouses in the house of the Lord. And when they had done so,

12 И внесоша тамо начатки и десятины верно: над ними же бе настоятель Хонениа левит, и Семей брат его вторый,

They brought in faithfully both the firstfruits, and the tithes, and all they had vowed. And the overseer of them was Chonenias the Levite, and Semei his brother was the second,

13 и Иеиил и Озиа, и Наеф и Асаил, и Иеримоф и Иозавад, и Елиил и Самахиа, и Мааф и Ванаиа, и сынове его приставлени рукою Хонении и Семеа брата его, якоже повеле Езекиа царь и Азариа началник дому Господня.

And after him Jehiel, and Azarias, and Nahath, and Asael, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Jesmachias, and Mahath, and Banaias, overseers under the hand of Chonenias, and Semei his brother, by the commandment of Ezechias the king, and Azarias the high priest of the house of God, to whom all things appertained.

14 И Корей сын Иемнаин левит, дверник к востоку над даяньми, еже даяти начатки Господни и Святая святых,

But Core the son of Jemna the Levite, the porter of the east gate, was overseer of the things which were freely offered to the Lord, and of the firstfruits and the things dedicated for the holy of holies.

15 рукою Одома и Вениамина, и Иисуса и Семеа, и Амариа и Сехониа, рукою священников верно, даяти братии своей по чредам, малу и велику,

And under his charge were Eden, and Benjamin, Jesue, and Semeias, and Amarias, and Sechenias, in the cities of the priests, to distribute faithfully portions to their brethren, both little and great:

16 кроме рожденных мужеска полу от лет триех и вышше, всем, иже вхождаху в церковь Господню по числу дний на день, в службу чред расположения их.

Besides the males from three years old and upward, to all that went into the temple of the Lord, and whatsoever there was need of in the ministry, and their offices according to their courses, day by day.

17 Сие разделение священников по домом отечеств: и левити в чредах своих, от двадесяти лет и вышше, по чином, в разделениих.

To the priests by their families, and to the Levites from the twentieth year and upward, by their classes and companies.

18 Всякому рожденному жен их и сынов их и дщерей их во все множество, понеже верно освятиша святое.

And to all the multitude, both to their wives, and to their children of both sexes, victuals were given faithfully out of the things that had been sanctified.

19 И сыновом Аароним священствующым в селех, и иже от градов их во всяцем граде и граде, мужие иже именовани суть по имени, даяти часть всякому мужеску полу во священницех и всякому сочисляемому в левитех.

Also of the sons of Aaron who were in the fields and in the suburbs of each city, there were men appointed, to distribute portions to all the males, among the priests and the Levites.

20 И сотвори тако Езекиа во всей Иудеи, и сотвори благое и правое и истинное пред Господем Богом своим,

So Ezechias did all things, which we have said in all Juda, and wrought that which was good; and right, and truth, before the Lord his God,

21 и во всяцем деле, еже нача делати в дому Господни, и в законе и в повелениих взыска Бога своего всем сердцем своим и сотвори, и благопоспешися ему.

In all the service of the ministry of the house of the Lord according to the law and the ceremonies, desiring to seek his God with all his heart, and he did it and prospered,
