2 Chronicles 35
1 And Josiah held a passover to Jehovah in Jerusalem; and they slaughtered the passover on the fourteenth of the first month.
Fecit autem Iosias in Ierusalem Phase Domino, quod immolatum est quartadecima die mensis primi:
2 And he set the priests in their charges, and encouraged them to the service of the house of Jehovah.
et constituit Sacerdotes in officiis suis, hortatusque est eos ut ministrarent in domo Domini.
3 And he said to the Levites, that taught all Israel, [and] who were holy to Jehovah, Put the holy ark in the house that Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, built; ye have not to carry it upon your shoulders. Serve now Jehovah your God, and his people Israel;
Levitis quoque, ad quorum eruditionem omnis Israel sanctificabatur Domino, locutus est: Ponite arcam in sanctuario templi, quod aedificavit Salomon filius David rex Israel, nequaquam enim eam ultra portabitis: nunc autem ministrate Domino Deo vestro, et populo eius Israel.
4 and prepare yourselves by your fathers' houses, in your divisions, according to the writing of David king of Israel, and according to the writing of Solomon his son;
Et praeparate vos per domos, et cognationes vestras in divisionibus singulorum, sicut praecepit David rex Israel, et descripsit Salomon filius eius.
5 and stand in the sanctuary for the classes of the fathers' houses, for your brethren, the children of the people, and [according] to the divisions of the fathers' houses of the Levites;
Et ministrate in sanctuario per familias turmasque Leviticas,
6 and slaughter the passover, and hallow yourselves, and prepare it for your brethren, that they may do according to the word of Jehovah through Moses.
et sanctificati immolate Phase: fratres etiam vestros, ut possint iuxta verba, quae locutus est Dominus in manu Moysi facere, praeparate.
7 And Josiah gave for the children of the people a heave-offering of the flocks, lambs and goats, 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.
Dedit praeterea Iosias omni populo, qui ibi fuerat inventus in sollemnitate Phase, agnos et hoedos de gregibus, et reliqui pecoris triginta millia, boum quoque tria millia. haec de regis universa substantia.
8 And his princes gave a voluntary heave-offering for the people, for the priests, and for the Levites: Hilkijah and Zechariah and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God, gave to the priests for the passover-offerings two thousand six hundred [small cattle] and three hundred oxen;
Duces quoque eius, sponte quod voverant, obtulerunt, tam populo, quam Sacerdotibus et Levitis. Porro Helcias, et Zacharias, et Iahiel principes domus Domini, dederunt sacerdotibus ad faciendum Phase pecora commixtim duo millia sexcenta, et boves trecentos.
9 and Conaniah, and Shemaiah and Nethaneel, his brethren, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, chief of the Levites, gave as heave-offering to the Levites for the passover-offerings five thousand [small cattle] and five hundred oxen.
Chonenias autem, et Semeias, etiam Nathanael et fratres eius, necnon Hasabias, et Iehiel, et Iosabad principes Levitarum, dederunt ceteris Levitis ad celebrandum Phase quinque millia pecorum, et boves quingentos.
10 And the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the king's commandment.
Praeparatumque est ministerium, et steterunt Sacerdotes in officio suo: Levitae quoque in turmis, iuxta regis imperium.
11 And they slaughtered the passover, and the priests sprinkled [the blood] from their hand, and the Levites flayed them.
Et immolatum est Phase: asperseruntque Sacerdotes manu sua sanguinem, et Levitae detraxerunt pelles holocaustorum:
12 And they set apart the burnt-offerings to give them to the classes of the fathers' houses of the children of the people, to present them to Jehovah, as it is written in the book of Moses. And so [did they] with the oxen.
et separaverunt ea ut darent per domos et familias singulorum, et offerrentur Domino, sicut scriptum est in Libro Moysi: de bobus quoque fecerunt similiter.
13 And they roasted the passover with fire according to the ordinance; and the consecrated things they boiled in pots and in cauldrons and in pans, and divided them speedily among all the children of the people.
Et assaverunt Phase super ignem, iuxta quod in lege scriptum est: pacificas vero hostias coxerunt in lebetibus, et cacabis, et ollis, et festinato distribuerunt universae plebi:
14 And afterwards they made ready for themselves and for the priests; because the priests, the sons of Aaron, [were engaged] in offering up the burnt-offerings and the fat until night; therefore the Levites prepared for themselves, and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.
sibi autem, et Sacerdotibus postea paraverunt: nam in oblatione holocaustorum et adipum usque ad noctem Sacerdotes fuerunt occupati: unde Levitae sibi, et Sacerdotibus filiis Aaron paraverunt novissimis.
15 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 doorkeepers were at every gate; they had not to depart from their service, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.
Porro cantores filii Asaph stabant in ordine suo, iuxta praeceptum David, et Asaph, et Heman, et Idithun prophetarum regis: Ianitores vero per portas singulas observabant, ita ut nec puncto quidem discederent a ministerio: quam ob rem et fratres eorum Levitae paraverunt eis cibos.
16 And all the service of Jehovah was prepared the same day, to hold the passover, and to offer burnt-offerings on the altar of Jehovah according to the commandment of king Josiah.
Omnis igitur cultura Domini rite completa est in die illa ut facerent Phase, et offerrent holocausta super altare Domini, iuxta praeceptum regis Iosiae.
17 And the children of Israel that were present held the passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.
Feceruntque filii Israel, qui reperti fuerant ibi, Phase in tempore illo, et sollemnitatem azymorum septem diebus.
18 And there was no passover like to that holden in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; neither did all the kings of Israel hold such a passover as Josiah held, and the priests, and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Non fuit Phase simile huic in Israel a diebus Samuelis prophetae: sed nec quisquam de cunctis regibus Israel fecit Phase sicut Iosias, Sacerdotibus, et Levitis, et omni Iuda, et Israel qui repertus fuerat, et habitantibus in Ierusalem.
19 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah was this passover holden.
Octavodecimo anno regni Iosiae hoc Phase celebratum est.
20 After all this, when Josiah had arranged the house, Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against Karkemish at the Euphrates; and Josiah went out against him.
Postquam instauraverat Iosias templum, ascendit Nechao rex Aegypti ad pugnandum in Charcamis iuxta Euphraten: et processit in occursum eius Iosias.
21 And he sent messengers to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, thou king of Judah? I come not against thee this day, but against the house with which I have war; and God has told me to make haste: keep aloof from God who is with me, that he destroy thee not.
At ille, missis ad eum nunciis, ait: Quid mihi et tibi est rex Iuda? non adversum te hodie venio, sed contra aliam pugno domum, ad quam me Deus festinato ire praecepit: desine adversum Deum facere, qui mecum est, ne interficiat te.
22 But Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight against him; and he hearkened not to the words of Necho from the mouth of God; and he came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.
Noluit Iosias reverti, sed praeparavit contra eum bellum, nec acquievit sermonibus Nechao ex ore Dei: verum perrexit ut dimicaret in campo Mageddo.
23 And the archers shot at king Josiah; and the king said to his servants, Have me away, for I am sore wounded.
Ibique vulneratus a sagittariis, dixit pueris suis: Educite me de praelio, quia oppido vulneratus sum.
24 And his servants took him out from the chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had, and brought him to Jerusalem. And he died, and was buried in the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.
Qui transtulerunt eum de curru in alterum currum, qui sequebatur eum more regio, et asportaverunt eum in Ierusalem, mortuusque est, et sepultus in mausoleo patrum suorum: et universus Iuda et Ierusalem luxerunt eum.
25 And Jeremiah lamented for Josiah; and all the singing men and singing women spoke of Josiah in their lamentations to this day; and they made them an ordinance for Israel. And behold, they are written in the lamentations.
Ieremias maxime: cuius omnes cantores atque cantatrices, usque in praesentem diem lamentationes super Iosiam replicant, et quasi lex obtinuit in Israel: Ecce scriptum fertur in lamentationibus.
26 And the rest of the acts of Josiah, and his good deeds, according to that which is written in the law of Jehovah,
Reliqua autem sermonum Iosiae et misericordiarum eius: quae lege praecepta sunt Domini:
27 and his acts, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.
opera quoque illius prima et novissima, scripta sunt in Libro regum Iuda et Israel.
