2 Chronicles 35
1 Moreouer Iosiah kept a Passeouer vnto the Lord in Ierusalem, and they slewe the Passeouer in the fourtenth day of the first moneth.
Fecit autem Iosias in Ierusalem Phase Domino, quod immolatum est quartadecima die mensis primi:
2 And he appointed the Priestes to their charges, and incouraged them to the seruice of the house of the Lord,
et constituit Sacerdotes in officiis suis, hortatusque est eos ut ministrarent in domo Domini.
3 And he sayd vnto the Leuites that taught all Israel and were sanctified vnto the Lord, Put the holy Arke in the house which Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel did build: it shalbe no more a burden vpon your shoulders: serue now the Lord your God and his people Israel,
Levitis quoque, ad quorum eruditionem omnis Israel sanctificabatur Domino, locutus est: Ponite arcam in sanctuario templi, quod ædificavit Salomon filius David rex Israel, nequaquam enim eam ultra portabitis: nunc autem ministrate Domino Deo vestro, et populo eius Israel.
4 And prepare your selues by the houses of your fathers according to your courses, as Dauid the King of Israel hath written, and according to the writing of Salomon his sonne,
Et præparate vos per domos, et cognationes vestras in divisionibus singulorum, sicut præcepit David rex Israel, et descripsit Salomon filius eius.
5 And stande in the Sanctuarie according to the deuision of the families of your brethren the children of the people, and after the deuision of the familie of the Leuites:
Et ministrate in sanctuario per familias turmasque Leviticas,
6 So kill the Passeouer and sanctifie your selues, and prepare your brethren that they may doe according to the worde of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
et sanctificati immolate Phase: fratres etiam vestros, ut possint iuxta verba, quæ locutus est Dominus in manu Moysi facere, præparate.
7 Iosiah also gaue to the people sheepe, lambs and kiddes, all for the Passeouer, euen to all that were present, to the nomber of thirtie thousand, and three thousande bullocks: these were of the Kings substance.
Dedit præterea Iosias omni populo, qui ibi fuerat inventus in sollemnitate Phase, agnos et hœdos de gregibus, et reliqui pecoris triginta millia, boum quoque tria millia. hæc de regis universa substantia.
8 And his princes offred willingly vnto the people, to the Priests and to the Leuites: Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Iehiel, rulers of the house of God, gaue vnto the Priests for the Passeouer, euen two thousand and sixe hundreth sheepe, and three hundreth bullockes.
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 Conaniah also and Shemaiah and Nethaneel his brethren, and Hashabiah and Ieiel, and Iozabad, chiefe of the Leuites gaue vnto the Leuites for the Passeouer, fiue thousand sheepe, and fiue hundreth bullockes.
Chonenias autem, et Semeias, etiam Nathanael fratres eius, necnon Hasabias, et Iehiel, et Iozabad principes Levitarum, dederunt ceteris Levitis ad celebrandum Phase quinque millia pecorum, et boves quingentos.
10 Thus the seruice was prepared, and the Priests stoode in their places, also the Leuites in their orders, according to the Kings commandement:
Præparatumque est ministerium, et steterunt Sacerdotes in officio suo: Levitæ quoque in turmis, iuxta regis imperium.
11 And they slewe the Passeouer, and the Priests sprinkled the blood with their handes, and the Leuites flayed them.
Et immolatum est Phase: asperseruntque Sacerdotes manu sua sanguinem, et Levitæ detraxerunt pelles holocaustorum:
12 And they tooke away from the burnt offering to giue it according to the deuisions of the families of the children of the people, to offer vnto the Lord, as it is written in the booke of Moses, and so of the bullockes.
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 rosted the Passeouer with fire, according to ye custome, but the sanctified things they sod in pots, pannes, and cauldrons, and distributed them quickely to all 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 universæ plebi:
14 Afterwarde also they prepared for them selues and for the Priestes: for the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron were occupied in offering of burnt offrings, and the fat vntill night: therefore the Leuites prepared for them selues, and for the Priests the sonnes of Aaron.
sibi autem, et Sacerdotibus postea paraverunt: nam in oblatione holocaustorum et adipum usque ad noctem Sacerdotes fuerunt occupati: unde Levitæ sibi, et Sacerdotibus filiis Aaron paraverunt novissimis.
15 And the singers the sonnes of Asaph stoode in their standing according to the commandement of Dauid, and Asaph, and Heman, and Ieduthun the Kings Seer: and the porters at euery gate, who might not depart from their seruice: therefore their brethren the Leuites prepared for them.
Porro cantores filii Asaph stabant in ordine suo, iuxta præceptum 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 Levitæ paraverunt eis cibos.
16 So all the seruice of the Lord was prepared the same day, to keepe the Passeouer, and to offer burnt offerings vpon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandement of King Iosiah.
Omnis igitur cultura Domini rite completa est in die illa ut facerent Phase, et offerrent holocausta super altare Domini, iuxta præceptum regis Iosiæ.
17 And the children of Israel that were present, kept the Passeouer the same time, and the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes.
Feceruntque filii Israel, qui reperti fuerant ibi, Phase in tempore illo, et sollemnitatem azymorum septem diebus.
18 And there was no Passeouer kept like that, in Israel, from the dayes of Samuel the Prophet: neyther did all the Kings of Israel keepe such a Passeouer as Iosiah kept, and the Priestes and the Leuites, and all Iudah, and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
Non fuit Phase simile huic in Israel a diebus Samuelis prophetæ: sed nec quisquam de cunctis regibus Israel fecit Phase sicut Iosias, Sacerdotibus, et Levitis, et omni Iudæ, et Israel qui repertus fuerat, et habitantibus in Ierusalem.
19 This Passeouer was kept in the eighteenth yeere of the reigne of Iosiah.
Octavodecimo anno regni Iosiæ hoc Phase celebratum est.
20 After all this, when Iosiah had prepared the Temple, Necho King of Egypt came vp to fight against Carchemish by Perath, and Iosiah went out against him.
Postquam instauraverat Iosias templum, ascendit Nechao rex Ægypti ad pugnandum in Charcamis iuxta Euphraten: et processit in occursum eius Iosias.
21 But he sent messengers to him, saying, What haue I to doe with thee, thou King of Iudah? I come not against thee this day, but against the house of mine enemie, and God commanded me to make haste: leaue of to come against God, which is with me, least he destroy thee.
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 præcepit: desine adversum Deum facere, qui mecum est, ne interficiat te.
22 But Iosiah would not turne his face from him, but changed his apparel to fight with him, and hearkened not vnto the wordes of Necho, which were of the mouth of God, but came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.
Noluit Iosias reverti, sed præparavit contra eum bellum, nec acquievit sermonibus Nechao ex ore Dei: verum perrexit ut dimicaret in campo Mageddo.
23 And the shooters shot at king Iosiah: then the King saide to his seruants, Cary me away, for I am very sicke.
Ibique vulneratus a sagittariis, dixit pueris suis: Educite me de prælio, quia oppido vulneratus sum.
24 So his seruants tooke him out of that charet, and put him in the seconde charet which he had, and when they had brought him to Ierusalem, he dyed, and was buryed in the sepulchres of his fathers: and all Iudah and Ierusalem mourned for Iosiah.
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 Ieremiah lamented Iosiah, and al singing men and singing women mourned for Iosiah in their lamentations to this day, and made the same for an ordinance vnto Israel: and beholde, they be written in the lamentations.
Ieremias maxime: cuius omnes cantores atque cantatrices, usque in præsentem diem lamentationes super Iosiam replicant, et quasi lex obtinuit in Israel: Ecce scriptum fertur in lamentationibus.
26 Concerning the rest of the actes of Iosiah and his goodnesse, doing as it was written in the Lawe of the Lord,
Reliqua autem sermonum Iosiæ et misericordiarum eius: quæ lege præcepta sunt Domini:
27 And his deedes, first and last, behold, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Israel and Iudah.
opera quoque illius prima et novissima, scripta sunt in Libro regum Iuda et Israel.
