< 2 Raja-raja 22 >
1 Yosia berumur delapan tahun ketika ia menjadi raja Yehuda, dan ia memerintah di Yerusalem 31 tahun lamanya. Ibunya bernama Yedida anak Adaya, dari Bozkat.
Josiah [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jedidah daughter of Adaiah of Boskath,
2 Yosia melakukan yang menyenangkan hati TUHAN. Ia mengikuti teladan Raja Daud leluhurnya, dan mentaati seluruh hukum Allah dengan sepenuhnya.
and he does that which is right in the eyes of YHWH, and walks in all the way of his father David, and has not turned aside [to] the right or left.
3 Raja Yosia mempunyai seorang sekretaris negara yang bernama Safan anak Azalya, cucu Mesulam. Pada tahun kedelapan belas pemerintahan Raja Yosia, raja memberi perintah ini kepada sekretarisnya itu, "Pergilah kepada Imam Agung Hilkia di Rumah TUHAN, dan mintalah dia memberi laporan tentang jumlah uang yang telah dikumpulkan oleh para imam yang bertugas di pintu masuk Rumah TUHAN.
And it comes to pass, in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, the king has sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of YHWH, saying,
“Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, and he completes the silver that is brought into the house of YHWH, that the keepers of the threshold have gathered from the people,
5 Suruh dia memberikan uang itu kepada para pengawas pekerjaan perbaikan di Rumah TUHAN. Mereka harus mempergunakan uang itu untuk membayar upah
and they give it into the hand of those doing the work, the overseers, in the house of YHWH, and they give it to those doing the work, that [are] in the house of YHWH, to strengthen the breach of the house,
6 para tukang kayu, tukang bangunan, dan tukang batu, serta membeli kayu dan batu yang diperlukan.
to craftsmen, and to builders, and [to repairers of] the wall, and to buy wood and hewn stones to strengthen the house;
7 Para pengawas pekerjaan itu jujur sekali, jadi tak perlu diminta laporan keuangan dari mereka."
only, the silver that is given into their hand is not reckoned with them, for they are dealing in faithfulness.”
8 Safan menyampaikan perintah raja kepada Hilkia, lalu Hilkia menceritakan kepada Safan bahwa ia telah menemukan buku hukum-hukum TUHAN di Rumah TUHAN. Hilkia memberikan buku itu kepada Safan, dan Safan membacanya.
And Hilkiah the high priest says to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found [the] Scroll of the Law in the house of YHWH”; and Hilkiah gives the scroll to Shaphan, and he reads it.
9 Setelah itu Safan kembali kepada raja dan melaporkan bahwa uang yang disimpan di Rumah TUHAN telah diambil dan diserahkan oleh para hamba raja kepada para pengawas pekerjaan perbaikan di Rumah TUHAN.
And Shaphan the scribe comes to the king, and brings the king back word, and says, “Your servants have poured out the silver that has been found in the house, and give it into the hand of those doing the work, the inspectors, in the house of YHWH.”
10 Kemudian Safan berkata, "Hilkia memberi buku ini kepada saya." Lalu Safan membacakan buku itu kepada raja.
And Shaphan the scribe declares to the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has given a scroll to me”; and Shaphan reads it before the king.
11 Mendengar isi buku itu, raja merobek-robek pakaiannya karena sedih.
And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the Scroll of the Law, that he tears his garments,
12 Lalu raja memberi perintah ini kepada Imam Hilkia, Ahikam anak Safan, Akhbor anak Mikha, Safan sekretaris negara, dan Asaya ajudan raja:
and the king commands Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah servant of the king, saying,
13 "Pergilah bertanya kepada TUHAN untuk aku dan untuk seluruh rakyat Yehuda mengenai isi buku ini. TUHAN marah kepada kita karena leluhur kita tidak menjalankan perintah-perintah yang tertulis di dalamnya."
“Go, seek YHWH for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this scroll that is found, for great [is] the fury of YHWH that is kindled against us, because that our fathers have not listened to the words of this scroll, to do according to all that is written for us.”
14 Maka pergilah Hilkia, Ahikam, Akhbor, Safan dan Asaya meminta petunjuk kepada seorang wanita bernama Hulda. Ia seorang nabi yang tinggal di perkampungan baru di Yerusalem. Suaminya bernama Salum anak Tikwa, cucu Harhas; ia pengurus pakaian ibadat di Rumah TUHAN. Setelah Hulda mendengar keterangan mereka,
And Hilkiah the priest goes, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, to Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the second [quarter], and they speak to her.
15 ia menyuruh mereka kembali kepada raja dan menyampaikan
And she says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Say to the man who has sent you to me,
16 perkataan TUHAN ini: "Aku akan menghukum Yerusalem dan seluruh penduduknya seperti yang tertulis dalam buku yang baru dibaca oleh raja.
Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in calamity to this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the scroll that the king of Judah has read,
17 Mereka telah meninggalkan Aku dan mempersembahkan kurban kepada ilah-ilah lain. Semua yang mereka lakukan membangkitkan kemarahan-Ku. Aku marah kepada Yerusalem, dan kemarahan-Ku tidak bisa diredakan.
because that they have forsaken Me, and make incense to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger with every work of their hands, and My wrath has been kindled against this place, and it is not quenched.
18 Tetapi mengenai Raja Yosia, inilah pesan-Ku, TUHAN Allah Israel, 'Setelah engkau mendengar apa yang tertulis dalam buku itu,
And to the king of Judah, who is sending you to seek YHWH, thus you say to him, Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: The words that you have heard—
19 engkau menyesal dan merendahkan diri di hadapan-Ku. Aku telah mengancam untuk menghukum Yerusalem dan penduduknya. Aku akan menjadikan kota itu suatu pemandangan yang mengerikan, dan nama Yerusalem akan Kujadikan nama kutukan. Tapi ketika engkau mendengar tentang ancaman-Ku itu engkau menangis dan merobek pakaianmu tanda sedih. Aku telah mendengar doamu,
because your heart [is] tender, and you are humbled because of YHWH, in your hearing that which I have spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, to be for a desolation, and for a reviling, and you tear your garments and weep before Me—I also have heard—a declaration of YHWH—
20 karena itu hukuman atas Yerusalem tidak akan Kujatuhkan selama engkau masih hidup. Engkau akan meninggal dengan damai.'" Maka kembalilah utusan-utusan itu kepada raja dan menyampaikan pesan itu.
therefore, behold, I am gathering you to your fathers, and you have been gathered to your grave in peace, and your eyes do not look on any of the calamity that I am bringing in on this place”; and they bring the king back word.
