< 2 Kings 16 >
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham, king of Judah, has reigned.
利玛利的儿子比加十七年,犹大王约坦的儿子亚哈斯登基。
2 Ahaz [is] a son of twenty years in his reigning, and he has reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and he has not done that which [is] right in the eyes of his God YHWH, like his father David,
他登基的时候年二十岁,在耶路撒冷作王十六年;不像他祖大卫行耶和华—他 神眼中看为正的事,
3 and he walks in the way of the kings of Israel, and he has also caused his son to pass over into fire, according to the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel,
却效法以色列诸王所行的,又照着耶和华从以色列人面前赶出的外邦人所行可憎的事,使他的儿子经火,
4 and he sacrifices and makes incense in high places, and on the heights, and under every green tree.
并在邱坛上、山冈上、各青翠树下献祭烧香。
5 Then Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah son of Remaliah, king of Israel, go up to Jerusalem, to battle, and they lay siege to Ahaz, and they have not been able to fight.
亚兰王利汛和以色列王利玛利的儿子比加上来攻打耶路撒冷,围困亚哈斯,却不能胜他。
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram has brought back Elath to Aram, and casts out the Jews from Elath, and the Arameans have come to Elath, and dwell there to this day.
当时亚兰王利汛收回以拉他归与亚兰,将犹大人从以拉他赶出去。亚兰人就来到以拉他,住在那里,直到今日。
7 And Ahaz sends messengers to Tiglath-Pileser king of Asshur, saying, “I [am] your servant and your son; come up and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me.”
亚哈斯差遣使者去见亚述王提革拉·毗列色,说:“我是你的仆人、你的儿子。现在亚兰王和以色列王攻击我,求你来救我脱离他们的手。”
8 And Ahaz takes the silver and the gold that is found in the house of YHWH, and in the treasures of the house of the king, and sends to the king of Asshur [as] a bribe.
亚哈斯将耶和华殿里和王宫府库里所有的金银都送给亚述王为礼物。
9 And the king of Asshur listens to him, and the king of Asshur goes up to Damascus, and seizes it, and removes [the people of] it to Kir, and he has put Rezin to death.
亚述王应允了他,就上去攻打大马士革,将城攻取,杀了利汛,把居民掳到吉珥。
10 And King Ahaz goes to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Asshur [at] Damascus, and sees the altar that [is] in Damascus, and King Ahaz sends to Urijah the priest the likeness of the altar, and its pattern, according to all its work,
亚哈斯王上大马士革去迎接亚述王提革拉·毗列色,在大马士革看见一座坛,就照坛的规模样式作法画了图样,送到祭司乌利亚那里。
11 and Urijah the priest builds the altar according to all that King Ahaz has sent from Damascus; so Urijah the priest did until the coming in of King Ahaz from Damascus.
祭司乌利亚照着亚哈斯王从大马士革送来的图样,在亚哈斯王没有从大马士革回来之先,建筑一座坛。
12 And the king comes in from Damascus, and the king sees the altar, and the king draws near on the altar, and offers on it,
王从大马士革回来看见坛,就近前来,在坛上献祭;
13 and burns his burnt-offering and his present as incense, and pours out his drink-offering, and sprinkles the blood of the peace-offerings that he has, on the altar.
烧燔祭、素祭、浇奠祭,将平安祭牲的血洒在坛上,
14 As for the altar of bronze that [is] before YHWH—he brings [it] near from the front of the house, from between the altar and the house of YHWH, and puts it on the side of the altar, northward.
又将耶和华面前的铜坛从耶和华殿和新坛的中间搬到新坛的北边。
15 And King Ahaz commands him—Urijah the priest—saying, “On the great altar burn as incense the burnt-offering of the morning, and the present of the evening, and the burnt-offering of the king, and his present, and the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their present, and their drink-offerings; and all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice, you sprinkle on it, and the altar of bronze is for me to inquire [by].”
亚哈斯王吩咐祭司乌利亚说:“早晨的燔祭、晚上的素祭,王的燔祭、素祭,国内众民的燔祭、素祭、奠祭都要烧在大坛上。燔祭牲和平安祭牲的血也要洒在这坛上,只是铜坛我要用以求问耶和华。”
16 And Urijah the priest does according to all that King Ahaz commanded.
祭司乌利亚就照着亚哈斯王所吩咐的行了。
17 And King Ahaz cuts off the borders of the bases, and turns aside the laver from off them, and he has taken down the sea from off the bronze oxen that [are] under it, and puts it on a pavement of stones.
亚哈斯王打掉盆座四面镶着的心子,把盆从座上挪下来,又将铜海从驮海的铜牛上搬下来,放在铺石地;
18 And the covered place for the Sabbath that they built in the house, and the entrance of the king outside, he turned [from] the house of YHWH, because of the king of Asshur.
又因亚述王的缘故,将耶和华殿为安息日所盖的廊子和王从外入殿的廊子挪移,围绕耶和华的殿。
19 And the rest of the matters of Ahaz that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
亚哈斯其余所行的事都写在犹大列王记上。
20 And Ahaz lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Hezekiah reigns in his stead.
亚哈斯与他列祖同睡,葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子希西家接续他作王。
