< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 NOW when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and brake the images in pieces, and cut down the groves, and threw down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
А кад се све ово сврши, сви синови Израиљеви што се нађоше онде, зађоше по градовима Јудиним, и изломише ликове и исекоше лугове, и оборише висине и олтаре по свој земљи Јудиној и Венијаминовој и по земљи Јефремовој и Манасијиној, докле све не свршише; потом се вратише сви синови Израиљеви свак на своје наследство, у своје градове.
2 And Hezekiah appointed the courses of the priests and the Levites after their courses, every man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the tents of the Lord.
А Језекија опет уреди редове свештеничке и левитске по редовима њиховим, сваког по служби његовој, свештенике и Левите, за жртве паљенице и захвалне, да служе, и да славе и хвале Господа на вратима логора Његовог.
3 He appointed also the king’s portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, to wit, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of the Lord.
И одреди део царски од блага свог за жртве паљенице, што се приносе јутром и вечером и за жртве паљенице што се приносе у суботе и на младине и на празнике, како је написано у закону Господњем.
4 Moreover he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be encouraged in the law of the Lord.
И заповеди народу, Јерусалимљанима, да дају део свештеницима и Левитима, да се јаче држе закона Господњег.
5 And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
А чим се то разгласи, стадоше доносити синови Израиљеви силу првина од жита и од вина и од уља и од меда и сваког рода земаљског; и десетка од свега доносише врло много.
6 And concerning the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the Lord their God, and laid them by heaps.
И синови Израиљеви и Јудини који живљаху по градовима Јудиним, доносише и они десетак од говеда и оваца, и десетак од светих ствари посвећених Господу Богу њиховом, и метнуше у гомиле.
7 In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
Трећег месеца почеше метати у гомиле, а седмог месеца свршише.
8 And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord, and his people Israel.
И дође Језекија с кнезовима, и видевши гомиле благословише Господа и народ Његов Израиља.
9 Then Hezekiah questioned with the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
И Језекија запита свештенике и Левите за гомиле.
10 And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and said, Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had enough to eat, and have left plenty: for the Lord hath blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.
А Азарија поглавар свештенички од дома Садоковог рече му: Откад почеше доносити ове прилоге у дом Господњи, једемо и сити смо и претече много, јер је Господ благословио свој народ, те је претекло ово мноштво.
11 Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of the Lord; and they prepared them,
Тада заповеди Језекија да се начине клети у дому Господњем; и начинише;
12 And brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: over which Cononiah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was the next.
И онде остављаху верно прилоге и десетке и ствари посвећене; и над тим беше поглавар Хонанија Левит и Симеј брат му, други до њега.
13 And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Cononiah and Shimei his brother, at the commandment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.
А Јехило и Азазија и Нахат и Асаило и Јеримот и Јозавад и Елило и Исмахија и Мат и Венаја беху настојници под руком Хонаније и брата му Симеја по наредби цара Језекије и Азарије старешине у дому Божијем.
14 And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter toward the east, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the oblations of the Lord, and the most holy things.
А Кореј син Јемне Левита, вратар на истоку, беше над оним што се драговољно приношаше Богу, да би раздељивао принос Господњи и ствари свете над светим.
15 And next him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their set office, to give to their brethren by courses, as well to the great as to the small:
А под њим беше Еден и Минијамин и Исус и Семаја и Амарија и Сеханија по градовима свештеничким, људи поуздани, да раздају браћи својој делове, великом и малом,
16 Beside their genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even unto every one that entereth into the house of the Lord, his daily portion for their service in their charges according to their courses;
Осим мушких у роду њиховом од три године и више, свакоме који улажаше у дом Господњи на посао свакидашњи по дужности њиховој у служби њиховој по реду њиховом,
17 Both to the genealogy of the priests by the house of their fathers, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges by their courses;
И онима који бише избројани у роду свештеничком по домовима отаца њихових, и Левитима од двадесет година и више по служби њиховој по редовима њиховим,
18 And to the genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their set office they sanctified themselves in holiness:
И породици њиховој, свој деци њиховој, женама њиховим, синовима њиховим и кћерима њиховим, свему мноштву; јер се верно посветише светињи;
19 Also of the sons of Aaron the priests, which were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every several city, the men that were expressed by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all that were reckoned by genealogies among the Levites.
И синовима Ароновим свештеницима у подграђима градова њихових, по свим градовима, људи именовани даваху делове сваком мушкарцу између свештеника и свакоме рода левитског.
20 And thus did Hezekiah throughout all Judah, and wrought that which was good and right and truth before the Lord his God.
И тако учини Језекија у свој земљи Јудиној; и чињаше шта је добро и право и истинито пред Господом Богом његовим.
21 And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
И у сваком послу који поче за службу дома Божјег и у закону и у заповести тражећи Бога свог, труђаше се свим срцем својим, и срећан беше.
