1 А кад се све ово сврши, сви синови Израиљеви што се нађоше онде, зађоше по градовима Јудиним, и изломише ликове и исекоше лугове, и оборише висине и олтаре по свој земљи Јудиној и Венијаминовој и по земљи Јефремовој и Манасијиној, докле све не свршише; потом се вратише сви синови Израиљеви свак на своје наследство, у своје градове.
Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and broke the pillars in pieces, cut down the Asherah poles, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, also in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
2 А Језекија опет уреди редове свештеничке и левитске по редовима њиховим, сваког по служби његовој, свештенике и Левите, за жртве паљенице и захвалне, да служе, и да славе и хвале Господа на вратима логора Његовог.
Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of Yahweh’s camp.
3 И одреди део царски од блага свог за жртве паљенице, што се приносе јутром и вечером и за жртве паљенице што се приносе у суботе и на младине и на празнике, како је написано у закону Господњем.
He also appointed the king’s portion of his possessions for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in Yahweh’s law.
4 И заповеди народу, Јерусалимљанима, да дају део свештеницима и Левитима, да се јаче држе закона Господњег.
Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to Yahweh’s law.
5 А чим се то разгласи, стадоше доносити синови Израиљеви силу првина од жита и од вина и од уља и од меда и сваког рода земаљског; и десетка од свега доносише врло много.
As soon as the commandment went out, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, oil, honey, and of all the increase of the field; and they brought in the tithe of all things abundantly.
6 И синови Израиљеви и Јудини који живљаху по градовима Јудиним, доносише и они десетак од говеда и оваца, и десетак од светих ствари посвећених Господу Богу њиховом, и метнуше у гомиле.
The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Yahweh their God, and laid them in heaps.
7 Трећег месеца почеше метати у гомиле, а седмог месеца свршише.
In the third month, they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
8 И дође Језекија с кнезовима, и видевши гомиле благословише Господа и народ Његов Израиља.
When Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed Yahweh and his people Israel.
9 И Језекија запита свештенике и Левите за гомиле.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites about the heaps.
10 А Азарија поглавар свештенички од дома Садоковог рече му: Откад почеше доносити ове прилоге у дом Господњи, једемо и сити смо и претече много, јер је Господ благословио свој народ, те је претекло ово мноштво.
Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, “Since people began to bring the offerings into Yahweh’s house, we have eaten and had enough, and have plenty left over, for Yahweh has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.”
11 Тада заповеди Језекија да се начине клети у дому Господњем; и начинише;
Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in Yahweh’s house, and they prepared them.
12 И онде остављаху верно прилоге и десетке и ствари посвећене; и над тим беше поглавар Хонанија Левит и Симеј брат му, други до њега.
They brought in the offerings, the tithes, and the dedicated things faithfully. Conaniah the Levite was ruler over them, and Shimei his brother was second.
13 А Јехило и Азазија и Нахат и Асаило и Јеримот и Јозавад и Елило и Исмахија и Мат и Венаја беху настојници под руком Хонаније и брата му Симеја по наредби цара Језекије и Азарије старешине у дому Божијем.
Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king and Azariah the ruler of God’s house.
14 А Кореј син Јемне Левита, вратар на истоку, беше над оним што се драговољно приношаше Богу, да би раздељивао принос Господњи и ствари свете над светим.
Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the gatekeeper at the east gate, was over the free will offerings of God, to distribute Yahweh’s offerings and the most holy things.
15 А под њим беше Еден и Минијамин и Исус и Семаја и Амарија и Сеханија по градовима свештеничким, људи поуздани, да раздају браћи својој делове, великом и малом,
Under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by divisions, to the great as well as to the small;
16 Осим мушких у роду њиховом од три године и више, свакоме који улажаше у дом Господњи на посао свакидашњи по дужности њиховој у служби њиховој по реду њиховом,
in addition to those who were listed by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into Yahweh’s house, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions;
17 И онима који бише избројани у роду свештеничком по домовима отаца њихових, и Левитима од двадесет година и више по служби њиховој по редовима њиховим,
and those who were listed by genealogy of the priests by their fathers’ houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
18 И породици њиховој, свој деци њиховој, женама њиховим, синовима њиховим и кћерима њиховим, свему мноштву; јер се верно посветише светињи;
and those who were listed by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation; for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
19 И синовима Ароновим свештеницима у подграђима градова њихових, по свим градовима, људи именовани даваху делове сваком мушкарцу између свештеника и свакоме рода левитског.
Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the pasture lands of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name to give portions to all the males among the priests and to all who were listed by genealogy among the Levites.
20 И тако учини Језекија у свој земљи Јудиној; и чињаше шта је добро и право и истинито пред Господом Богом његовим.
Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he did that which was good, right, and faithful before Yahweh his God.
21 И у сваком послу који поче за службу дома Божјег и у закону и у заповести тражећи Бога свог, труђаше се свим срцем својим, и срећан беше.
In every work that he began in the service of God’s house, in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart and prospered.
