< دوم تواریخ 26 >
مردم یهودا، عزیا را که شانزده ساله بود به جای پدرش اَمَصیا پادشاه خود ساختند. | 1 |
Then all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
عزیا پس از مرگ پدرش شهر ایلت را برای یهودا پس گرفت و آن را بازسازی کرد. | 2 |
He was the builder of Eloth, which he got back for Judah after the death of the king.
او پنجاه و دو سال در اورشلیم سلطنت نمود. (مادرش یکلیای اورشلیمی بود.) | 3 |
Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he was ruling in Jerusalem for fifty-two years; his mother's name was Jechiliah of Jerusalem.
او مانند پدرش اَمَصیا آنچه در نظر خداوند پسندیده بود انجام میداد. | 4 |
He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Amaziah had done.
تا زمانی که مشاور روحانی او، زکریا زنده بود، او از خدا پیروی میکرد و خدا نیز او را موفق میساخت. | 5 |
He gave himself to searching after God in the days of Zechariah, who made men wise in the fear of God; and as long as he was true to the Lord, God made things go well for him.
عزیا به جنگ فلسطینیها رفت و شهر جت را گرفت و حصار آن را خراب کرد و با شهرهای یبنه و اشدود نیز به همین طریق عمل نمود. سپس در ناحیهٔ اشدود و قسمتهای دیگر فلسطین شهرهای تازهای ساخت. | 6 |
He went out and made war against the Philistines, pulling down the walls of Gath and Jabneh and Ashdod, and building towns in the country round Ashdod and among the Philistines.
خدا نه فقط او را در جنگ با فلسطینیها یاری نمود، بلکه در نبرد با اَعرابِ جوربعل و معونیها نیز وی را امداد فرمود. | 7 |
And God gave him help against the Philistines, and against the Arabians living in Gur-baal, and against the Meunim.
عمونیها باج و خراج به او میپرداختند و نام او تا مصر شهرت یافت زیرا او بسیار نیرومند شده بود. | 8 |
The Ammonites gave offerings to Uzziah: and news of him went out as far as the limit of Egypt; for he became very great in power.
عزیا در شهر اورشلیم نزد دروازهٔ زاویه، دروازهٔ دره و جایی که حصار اورشلیم میپیچید قلعههای محکمی بنا کرد. | 9 |
Uzziah made towers in Jerusalem, at the doorway in the angle and at the doorway in the valley and at the turn of the wall, arming them.
همچنین در صحرا برجها ساخت و چاههای بسیار کند زیرا در دشتها و درهها، گلههای بسیار داشت. عزیا به کشاورزی علاقمند بود و به همین جهت در دامنهٔ تپهها و دشتهای حاصلخیز، مزرعهها و تاکستانهای فراوانی داشت. | 10 |
And he put up towers in the waste land and made places for storing water, for he had much cattle, in the low hills and in the table land; and he had farmers and vine-keepers in the mountains and in the fertile land, for he was a lover of farming.
سپاه عزیا از سربازان جنگ آزمودهای تشکیل شده بود. در زمان جنگ، یعیئیل، کاتب و معسیا، معاون حننیا که یکی از درباریان بود، سپاه را به چند دسته تقسیم کرده، سان میدیدند. | 11 |
In addition, Uzziah had an army of fighting-men who went out to war in bands, as they had been listed by Jeiel the scribe and Maaseiah the ruler, under the authority of Hananiah, one of the king's captains.
دو هزار و ششصد نفر از سران قبایل، فرماندهی این دستهها را به عهده داشتند. | 12 |
The heads of families, the strong men of war, were two thousand, six hundred.
سپاه زیر دست آنها از ۳۰۷٬۵۰۰ سرباز زبده تشکیل شده بود که با شجاعت از پادشاه در مقابل دشمن دفاع میکردند. | 13 |
And under their orders was a trained army of three hundred and seven thousand, five hundred, of great strength in war, helping the king against any who came against him.
عزیا برای تمام افراد سپاه سپر، نیزه، کلاهخود، زره، کمان و فلاخن تهیه کرد. | 14 |
And Uzziah had all these forces armed with body-covers and spears and head-covers and coats of metal and bows and stones for sending from leather bands.
به دستور او منجنیقهایی بهوسیلۀ صنعتگران ماهر در اورشلیم ساخته شد تا با آنها از بالای برجها و باروها تیر و سنگ به سوی دشمن پرتاب کنند. به این ترتیب او بسیار معروف و قوی شد، زیرا خدا وی را کمک میکرد. | 15 |
And in Jerusalem he made machines, the invention of expert men, to be placed on the towers and angles of the walls for sending arrows and great stones. And his name was honoured far and wide; for he was greatly helped till he was strong.
اما قدرت عزیا باعث غرور و تباهی او گردید. او وارد خانهٔ خداوند شد و شخصاً بر مذبح آن بخور سوزانید و به این وسیله بر ضد خداوند، خدای خود مرتکب گناه شد. | 16 |
But when he had become strong, his heart was lifted up in pride, causing his destruction; and he did evil against the Lord his God; for he went into the Temple of the Lord for the purpose of burning perfumes on the altar of perfumes.
پشت سر او عزریا، کاهن اعظم با هشتاد کاهن دیگر که همه مردانی شجاع بودند وارد خانهٔ خداوند شده | 17 |
And Azariah the priest went in after him, with eighty of the Lord's priests, who were strong men;
با عزیای پادشاه به مخالفت پرداختند و گفتند: «ای عزیا، سوزاندن بخور برای خداوند کار تو نیست! این فقط وظیفهٔ کاهنان نسل هارون است که برای همین منظور تقدیس شدهاند. از اینجا خارج شو، چون گناه کردهای و خداوند از این عمل تو خشنود نخواهد شد.» | 18 |
And they made protests to Uzziah the king, and said to him, The burning of perfumes, Uzziah, is not your business but that of the priests, the sons of Aaron, who have been made holy for this work: go out of the holy place, for you have done wrong, and it will not be to your honour before God.
عزیا که در خانۀ خداوند، کنار مذبح بخور ایستاده بود غضبناک شد و نخواست ظرف بخوری را که در دست داشت بر زمین بگذارد. در این هنگام ناگهان مرض جذام در پیشانی او ظاهر شد! | 19 |
Then Uzziah was angry; and he had in his hand a vessel for burning perfume; and while his wrath was bitter against the priests, the mark of the leper's disease came out on his brow, before the eyes of the priests in the house of the Lord by the altar of perfumes.
عزریا و کاهنان دیگر وقتی این را دیدند، با شتاب او را بیرون بردند. او خود نیز میخواست هر چه زودتر از خانهٔ خدا خارج شود، زیرا خداوند او را مجازات کرده بود. | 20 |
And Azariah, the chief priest, and all the priests, looking at him, saw the mark of the leper on his brow, and they sent him out quickly and he himself went out straight away, for the Lord's punishment had come on him.
عزیای پادشاه تا روز وفاتش جذامی بود و در خانهای، تنها به سر میبرد و اجازه نداشت به خانهٔ خداوند وارد شود. پسرش یوتام امور مملکت را اداره میکرد. | 21 |
So King Uzziah was a leper till the day of his death, living separately in his private house; for he was cut off from the house of God; and Jotham his son was ruling over his house, judging the people of the land.
شرح بقیهٔ رویدادهای دوران سلطنت عزیا، از ابتدا تا انتها، توسط اشعیای نبی (پسر آموص) نوشته شده است. | 22 |
Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, first and last, were recorded by Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
وقتی عزیا وفات یافت، با اینکه جذامی بود، او را در آرامگاه سلطنتی به خاک سپردند و پسرش یوتام سلطنت را به دست گرفت. | 23 |
So Uzziah went to rest with his fathers; and they put his body into the earth in the field used for the resting-place of the kings, for they said, He is a leper: and Jotham his son became king in his place.
