2 Ljetopisa 35
1 Potom je Jošija svetkovao Pashu Jahvi u Jeruzalemu: klalo se pashalno jagnje četrnaestoga dana prvoga mjeseca.
Moreover Josiah kept a passover to the LORD in Jerusalem: and they killed the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
2 Postavio je svećenike na njihove službe, osokolivši ih na službu u Jahvinu Domu.
And he set the priests in their charges, and encouraged them to the service of the house of the LORD,
3 Zatim je rekao levitima koji su poučavali sve Izraelce i bili posvećeni Jahvi: “Metnite sveti Kovčeg u Dom koji je sagradio Davidov sin Salomon, izraelski kralj; ne smijete ga više nositi na ramenima; sada služite Jahvi, svojem Bogu, i njegovu izraelskom narodu!
And said to the Levites that taught all Israel, which were holy to the LORD, Put the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David king of Israel did build; it shall not be a burden on your shoulders: serve now the LORD your God, and his people Israel,
4 I pripravite se po otačkim domovima, po redovima, kako je napisao izraelski kralj David i propisao sin mu Salomon.
And prepare yourselves by the houses of your fathers, after your courses, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing of Solomon his son.
5 Stojte u Svetinji po redovima otačkih domova svoje braće, običnoga puka, i po redu levitskoga otačkog doma.
And stand in the holy place according to the divisions of the families of the fathers of your brothers the people, and after the division of the families of the Levites.
6 I tako koljite pashalno janje te se posvetite i pripravite svoju braću da svetkuju kako je zapovjedio Jahve preko Mojsija.”
So kill the passover, and sanctify yourselves, and prepare your brothers, that they may do according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
7 Jošija je darovao običnom puku od sitne stoke jaganjaca i jarića, sve za Pashu, svima koji su se našli ondje, na broj trideset tisuća, i tri tisuće goveda, sve to s kraljeva imanja.
And Josiah gave to the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all for the passover offerings, for all that were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bullocks: these were of the king’s substance.
8 Njegovi su knezovi dragovoljno darovali narodu, svećenicima i levitima, i to: Hilkija, Zaharija i Jehiel, predstojnici u Božjem Domu, dali su svećenicima za Pashu dvije tisuće i šest stotina jaganjaca i jarića i tri stotine goveda.
And his princes gave willingly to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites: Hilkiah and Zechariah and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God, gave to the priests for the passover offerings two thousand and six hundred small cattle and three hundred oxen.
9 A Konanija, Šemaja i Netanel, njegova braća Hašabja, Jehiel i Jozabad, levitski knezovi, darovali su levitima za Pashu pet tisuća grla sitne stoke i pet stotina goveda.
Conaniah also, and Shemaiah and Nethaneel, his brothers, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, chief of the Levites, gave to the Levites for passover offerings five thousand small cattle, and five hundred oxen.
10 A kad je bila uređena služba, stali su svećenici na svoje mjesto i leviti u svojim redovima po kraljevoj zapovijedi.
So the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their courses, according to the king’s commandment.
11 Klali su Pashu, a svećenici su škropili krvlju, dok su leviti odirali kožu.
And they killed the passover, and the priests sprinkled the blood from their hands, and the Levites flayed them.
12 Onda su pripravili paljenice da ih dadu običnom puku po redovima otačkih domova da ih prinese Jahvi, kako je napisano u Mojsijevoj knjizi. Tako su učinili i s govedima.
And they removed the burnt offerings, that they might give according to the divisions of the families of the people, to offer to the LORD, as it is written in the book of Moses. And so did they with the oxen.
13 Pekli su Pashu na ognju po običaju, a ostale su posvećene stvari kuhali u loncima, kotlovima i zdjelama i brzo ih raznosili svemu običnom puku.
And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance: but the other holy offerings sod they in pots, and in caldrons, and in pans, and divided them speedily among all the people.
14 Poslije su pripravljali Pashu sebi i svećenicima, jer su svećenici, Aronovi sinovi, bili zaposleni prinošenjem paljenica i pretiline do noći; zato su leviti pripravljali sebi i svećenicima, Aronovim sinovima.
And afterward they made ready for themselves, and for the priests: because the priests the sons of Aaron were busied in offering of burnt offerings and the fat until night; therefore the Levites prepared for themselves, and for the priests the sons of Aaron.
15 A pjevači, Asafovi sinovi, stajali su na svojem mjestu, kako je bio zapovjedio David, Asaf, Heman i kraljev vidjelac Jedutun. Vratari su stajali na svakim vratima; oni se nisu micali od službe, nego su im njihova braća leviti pripravljala sve.
And the singers the sons of Asaph were in their place, according to the commandment of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer; and the porters waited at every gate; they might not depart from their service; for their brothers the Levites prepared for them.
16 Tako je bila uređena sva Jahvina služba onoga dana da se proslavi Pasha i da se prinesu paljenice na Jahvinu žrtveniku po zapovijedi kralja Jošije.
So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, to keep the passover, and to offer burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD, according to the commandment of king Josiah.
17 Tako su Izraelovi sinovi, koji su se našli ondje, u to doba sedam dana slavili Pashu i Blagdan beskvasnih kruhova.
And the children of Israel that were present kept the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
18 Pasha kao ova u Izraelu nije se slavila od vremena proroka Samuela niti je ijedan od izraelskih kraljeva slavio Pashu kao što ju je slavio Jošija - sa svećenicima, levitima i sa svim Judejcima i Izraelcima, koliko ih se god našlo, i s Jeruzalemcima.
And there was no passover like to that kept in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did all the kings of Israel keep such a passover as Josiah kept, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
19 Ta se Pasha svetkovala osamnaeste godine Jošijina kraljevanja.
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah was this passover kept.
20 Poslije svega toga, kad je Jošija uredio Dom, došao je egipatski kralj Neko da se bije kod Karkemiša na Eufratu, a Jošija je izišao preda nj.
After all this, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against Charchemish by Euphrates: and Josiah went out against him.
21 Kralj Neko poslao je Jošiji glasnike i poručio: “Što ja imam s tobom, judejski kralju? Ne idem ja danas na tebe, nego na dom s kojim sam u ratu, i Bog mi je zapovjedio da se požurim. Okani se Boga koji je sa mnom da te ne upropastim!”
But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with you, you king of Judah? I come not against you this day, but against the house with which I have war: for God commanded me to make haste: forbear you from meddling with God, who is with me, that he destroy you not.
22 Ali Jošija nije odvratio lica od njega, nego se ojunačio da se bije s njim; ne poslušavši Nekovih riječi iz Božjih usta, došao je da se bije na Megidskom polju.
Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and listened not to the words of Necho from the mouth of God, and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.
23 Strijelci ustrijeliše kralja Jošiju, a on reče slugama: “Izvedite me jer sam teško ranjen.”
And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his servants, Have me away; for I am sore wounded.
24 Sluge ga skinuše s bojnih kola i metnuše u druga kola koja je imao, pa ga odvezoše u Jeruzalem; ondje je umro i bio sahranjen u grobnici otaca. Sva Judeja s Jeruzalemom plakala je za Jošijom.
His servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died, and was buried in one of the sepulchers of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.
25 I Jeremija je protužio za Jošijom. I svi pjevači i pjevačice spominju u tužbalicama Jošiju do danas; uveli su ih u običaj u Izraelu, i eno su zapisane u Tužbalicama.
And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah: and all the singing men and the singing women spoke of Josiah in their lamentations to this day, and made them an ordinance in Israel: and, behold, they are written in the lamentations.
26 Ostala Jošijina djela i njegova pobožnost, vršeni onako kako piše u Jahvinu Zakonu,
Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and his goodness, according to that which was written in the law of the LORD,
27 svi njegovi pothvati, od prvih do posljednjih, zapisani su u Knjizi o izraelskim i judejskim kraljevima.
And his deeds, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
