2 Chronicles 35
1 And Josiah kept in Jerusalem the passover unto the Lord: and they slaughtered the passover-sacrifice on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Fecit autem Iosias in Ierusalem Phase Domino, quod immolatum est quartadecima die mensis primi:
2 And he placed the priests in their charges, and strengthened them for the service of the house of the Lord.
et constituit Sacerdotes in officiis suis, hortatusque est eos ut ministrarent in domo Domini.
3 And he said unto the Levites that instructed all Israel, who were holy unto the Lord, Set the holy ark in the house which Solomon the son of David the king of Israel did build; you have not to carry it any more upon your shoulders; now serve 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 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 family divisions, according to your courses, after the written order of David the king of Israel, and after the written order 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 holy place according to the divisions of the family divisions of your brethren the sons of the people, and after the division of the families of the Levites;
Et ministrate in sanctuario per familias turmasque Leviticas,
6 And slaughter the passover-sacrifice, and sanctify yourselves, and prepare it for your brethren, to do according to the word of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
et sanctificati immolate Phase: fratres etiam vestros, ut possint iuxta verba, quae locutus est Dominus in manu Moysi facere, praeparate.
7 And Josiah set apart for the sons of the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all for the passover-sacrifices, for all that were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and of steers three thousand: these were of the king's property.
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 set apart [much] as a freewill gift for the people for the priests, and for the Levites: Chilkiyah, and Zecharyahu, and Jechiel, the rulers of the house of God, gave unto the priests for the passover-sacrifices two thousand and six hundred [lambs and kids], and three hundred steers.
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 Conanyahu, and Shema'yahu and Nethanel, his brothers, and Chashabyahu and Je'iel and Jozabad, the chiefs of the Levites, set apart unto the Levites for passover-sacrifices five thousand [lambs and kids], and five hundred steers.
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 So the service was established, and the priests stood on their station, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the king's command.
Praeparatumque est ministerium, et steterunt Sacerdotes in officio suo: Levitae quoque in turmis, iuxta regis imperium.
11 And they slaughtered the passover-sacrifice, and the priests sprinkled [the blood received] from their hands, and the Levites did the flaying.
Et immolatum est Phase: asperseruntque Sacerdotes manu sua sanguinem, et Levitae detraxerunt pelles holocaustorum:
12 And they removed the burnt-offerings to give them to the divisions of the family divisions of the sons of the people, to offer [them] unto the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses. And so did they with the steers.
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 by the fire in accordance with the prescribed manner; but the holy offerings they seethed in pots, and in caldrons, and in pans, and divided them speedily among all the sons 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 afterward they prepared for themselves, and for the priests; because the priests the sons of Aaron [were busied] in offering 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 Assaph were on their station, according to the command of David, and Assaph, and Heman, and Jeduthun the king's seer; and the gatekeepers were at every gate: they had no need to depart from their service; because 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 So was established all the service of the Lord on the same day, to prepare the passover-sacrifice, and to offer burnt-offerings upon the altar of the Lord, according to the command 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 prepared the passover-sacrifice at that time, and [kept] 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 not holden any passover like this in Israel from the days of Samuel the prophet; and all the kings of Israel did not keep such a passover as Josiah kept, with 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 restored the temple, came up Necho the king of Egypt to fight against Karkemish by 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 But he sent ambassadors 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 wherewith I have war, and God hath commanded me to make haste: forbear thee from meddling with God who is with me, that he may not 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 praecepit: desine adversum Deum facere, qui mecum est, ne interficiat te.
22 Nevertheless did Josiah not turn his face away from him, but disguised himself, to fight with him, and hearkened not unto 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, Carry me away: for I am sorely wounded.
Ibique vulneratus a sagittariis, dixit pueris suis: Educite me de praelio, quia oppido vulneratus sum.
24 And his servants carried him away out of that chariot, and conveyed him in the second chariot that he had: and they 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 the singing women spoke of Josiah in their lamentations to this day, and they instituted them as a custom in 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 pious deeds, in accordance with what is written in the law of the Lord,
Reliqua autem sermonum Iosiae et misericordiarum eius: quae lege praecepta sunt Domini:
27 And his acts, the first and the 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.
