1 Forsothe Josie made pask to the Lord in Jerusalem, that was offrid in the fourtenthe dai of the firste monethe;
Fecit autem Iosias in Ierusalem Phase Domino, quod immolatum est quartadecima die mensis primi:
2 and he ordeynede prestis in her offices; and he comaundide hem for to mynystre in the hows of the Lord.
et constituit Sacerdotes in officiis suis, hortatusque est eos ut ministrarent in domo Domini.
3 And he spak to the dekenes, at whos techyng al Israel was halewid to the Lord, Sette ye the arke in the seyntuarie of the temple, which Salomon, kyng of Israel, the sone of Dauid, bildide; for ye schulen no more bere it. But now serue `youre Lord God and his puple 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 make you redi bi youre housis and meynees in the departyngis of ech bi hym silf, as Dauid, king of Israel, comaundide, and Salomon, his sone, discryuede;
Et praeparate vos per domos, et cognationes vestras in divisionibus singulorum, sicut praecepit David rex Israel, et descripsit Salomon filius eius.
5 and serue ye in the seyntuarie bi the meynees and cumpenyes of dekenes,
Et ministrate in sanctuario per familias turmasque Leviticas,
6 and be ye halewid, and offre ye pask; also `make redi youre britheren, that thei moun `do bi the wordis, whiche the Lord spak in the hond of Moyses.
et sanctificati immolate Phase: fratres etiam vestros, ut possint iuxta verba, quae locutus est Dominus in manu Moysi facere, praeparate.
7 Ferthermore Josie yaf to al the puple, that was foundun there in the solempnytee of pask, lambren, and kidis of the flockis, and of residue scheep `he yaf thritti thousynde, and of oxis thre thousynde; these thingis of al the catel of the kyng.
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 hise duykis offriden tho thingis whiche thei avowiden bi fre wille, as wel to the puple as to prestis and dekenes. Forsothe Elchie, and Zacharie, and Jehiel, princes of the hows of the Lord, yauen to preestis, to make pask in comyn, two thousynde and sixe hundrid scheep, and thre hundrid oxis.
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 Forsothe Chononye, and Semei, and Nathanael and hise britheren, also Asabie, Jahiel, and Josabaz, princis of dekenes, yauen to othere dekenes, to make pask, fyue thousynde of scheep, and fyue hundrid oxis.
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 seruyce was maad redi; and preestis stoden in her office, and dekenes in cumpenyes, bi comaundement of the kyng; and pask was offrid.
Praeparatumque est ministerium, et steterunt Sacerdotes in officio suo: Levitae quoque in turmis, iuxta regis imperium.
11 And preestis spreynten her hondis with blood, and dekenes drowen of the skynnes of sacrifices, and departiden tho sacrificis,
Et immolatum est Phase: asperseruntque Sacerdotes manu sua sanguinem, et Levitae detraxerunt pelles holocaustorum:
12 for to yyue bi the housis and meyneis of alle men; and that tho schulden be offrid to the Lord, as it is writun in the book of Moises; and of oxis thei diden in lijk maner.
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 thei rostiden pask on the fier, bi that that is writun in the lawe. Sotheli thei sethiden pesible sacrifices in pannes, and cawdruns, and pottis, and in haste thei deliden to al the puple;
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 but thei maden redi aftirward to hem silf, and to prestis; for preestis weren occupied `til to nyyt in the offryng of brent sacrifices and of ynnere fatnessis. Wherfor dekenes maden redi to hem silf and to preestis, the sones of Aaron, `the laste.
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 Forsothe syngeris, the sones of Asaph, stoden in her ordre, bi the comaundement of Dauid, and of Asaph, and of Eman, and of Yditum, the profetis of the kyng; but the porteris kepten bi ech yate, so that thei yeden not awei fro the seruice, sotheli in a poynt; wherfor and dekenes, her britheren, maden redi metis to hem.
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 Therfor al the religioun of the Lord was fillid riytfuli in that day, that thei maden pask, and offriden brent sacrifices on the auter of the Lord, bi the comaundement of kyng Josie.
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 sones of Israel, that weren foundun there, maden pask in that tyme, and the solempnite of therf looues seuene daies.
Feceruntque filii Israel, qui reperti fuerant ibi, Phase in tempore illo, et sollemnitatem azymorum septem diebus.
18 No pask was lijk this in Israel, fro the daies of Samuel, the prophete; but nethir ony of the kyngis of Israel made pask as Josie dide, to preestis and dekenes, and to al Juda and Israel, that was foundun, and to the dwelleris 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 This pask was halewid in the eiytenthe yeer of `the rewme of Josie.
Octavodecimo anno regni Iosiae hoc Phase celebratum est.
20 Aftir that Josie hadde reparelid the temple, Nechao, the kyng of Egipt, stiede to fiyte in Carcamys bisidis Eufrates; and Josie yede forth in to his metyng.
Postquam instauraverat Iosias templum, ascendit Nechao rex Aegypti ad pugnandum in Charcamis iuxta Euphraten: et processit in occursum eius Iosias.
21 And he seide bi messangeris sent to hym, Kyng of Juda, what is to me and to thee? Y come not ayens thee to dai, but Y fiyte ayens another hows, to which God bad me go in haste; ceesse thou to do ayens God, which is with me, lest he sle 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 Josie nolde turne ayen, but made redi batel ayens hym; and he assentide not to the wordis of Nechao, bi Goddis mouth, but he yede for to fiyte in the feeld of Magedo.
Noluit Iosias reverti, sed praeparavit contra eum bellum, nec acquievit sermonibus Nechao ex ore Dei: verum perrexit ut dimicaret in campo Mageddo.
23 And there he was woundide of archeris, and seide to hise children, `Lede ye me out of the batel, for Y am woundid greetli.
Ibique vulneratus a sagittariis, dixit pueris suis: Educite me de praelio, quia oppido vulneratus sum.
24 Whiche baren hym ouer fro the chare in to an other chare, that suede hym, bi custom of the kyng, and `baren out hym in to Jerusalem; and he diede, and was biried in the sepulcre of hise fadris. And al Juda and Jerusalem biweiliden hym,
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 Jeremye moost, of whom alle syngeris and syngeressis `til in to present dai rehersen `lamentaciouns, ether weilyngis, on Josie; and it cam forth as a lawe in Israel, Lo! it is seid writun in Lamentaciouns.
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 Forsothe the residue of wordis of Josie, and of hise mercies, that ben comaundid in the lawe of the Lord,
Reliqua autem sermonum Iosiae et misericordiarum eius: quae lege praecepta sunt Domini:
27 and hise werkis, `the firste and the laste, ben wryten in the book of kyngis of Israel and of Juda.
opera quoque illius prima et novissima, scripta sunt in Libro regum Iuda et Israel.
