Вторая книга Паралипоменон 31
1 Егда же сия вся совершишася, изыде весь Израиль обретшийся во градех Иудиных, и сокрушиша идолы и посекоша дубравы, и разориша высокая и требища от всея Иудеи и Вениамина, и от Ефрема и от Манассии в конец: и возвратися весь Израиль, кийждо во одержание свое и во грады своя.
When all this had finished, the Israelites who were there went to the towns of Judah and smashed the pagan pillars, cut down the Asherah poles, and destroyed the high places and altars throughout Judah and Benjamin, as well as in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had completely demolished all of them. After that they all went home to their respective towns.
2 И устави Езекиа чреды священников и левитов, и чреды коегождо по служению его, священников и левитом, во всесожжение и в жертву спасения, и дабы хвалили и исповедалися и служили во вратех во дворех дому Господня.
Then Hezekiah reallocated the divisions of the priests and Levites, each according to their service: presenting burnt offerings and friendship offerings, serving, giving thanks, and singing praises at the entrances of the Lord's Temple.
3 Часть же царева бысть от имения его во всесожжение утреннее и вечернее, и всесожжения в субботы и в новомесячия и в праздники писанныя в законе Господни.
The king contributed personally towards the morning and evening burnt offerings, and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, new moons, and special feasts, as required by the Law of the Lord.
4 И заповеда людем живущым во Иерусалиме дати часть священником и левитом, да укрепятся во служении дому Господня.
He also ordered the people living in Jerusalem to provide for the priests and Levites so that they could dedicate themselves to studying and teaching the Law of the Lord.
5 И егда устави слово, даша много сынове Израилевы начаток пшеницы и вина и елеа и меда, и вся яже родит земля, и десятины вся принесоша зело много сынове Израилевы и Иудины.
As soon as the message went out, the Israelites generously gave the firstfruits of the grain, new wine, olive oil, and honey, and of all the crops. They brought plenty, a tithe of everything.
6 И иже обитаху во градех Иудиных, и тии принесоша десятины от телцев и овец, и десятины от коз, и посвятиша Господу Богу своему, и внесоша и положиша купы многи.
The people of Israel now living in Judah, and the people of Judah brought a tithe of their herds and flocks. They also brought a tithe of what had been dedicated to the Lord their God, and piled them up.
7 Месяца третияго начаша купам полагати основания, и месяца седмаго и совершиша их.
They started doing this in the third month, and they finished in the seventh month.
8 И вниде Езекиа и началницы, и видеша купы, и благословиша Господа и люди Его Израиля.
When Hezekiah and his officials came and saw what had been collected, they thanked the Lord and his people Israel.
9 Вопроси же Езекиа священников и левитов о купах.
Hezekiah asked the priests and Levites about what had been collected.
10 И отвеща к нему Азариа священник началный в дому Садоков и рече отнележе начаша приносити начатки в дом Господень, ядохом и пихом, и оставихом даже до множества, яко благослови Господь люди Своя, и оставихом еще множество сие.
Azariah, the chief priest of the family of Zadok, answered, “Ever since the people began to bring their contributions into the Lord's Temple, we have had enough to eat and plenty to spare. Because the Lord has blessed his people there is so much left over.”
11 И повеле Езекиа еще уготовити житницы в дому Господни: и уготоваша.
Hezekiah ordered the construction of storehouses in the Lord's Temple. Once they were ready,
12 И внесоша тамо начатки и десятины верно: над ними же бе настоятель Хонениа левит, и Семей брат его вторый,
the people faithfully brought in their offerings, tithes, and dedicated gifts. Conaniah the Levite was the one who was responsible for them, and his brother Shimei was second in command.
13 и Иеиил и Озиа, и Наеф и Асаил, и Иеримоф и Иозавад, и Елиил и Самахиа, и Мааф и Ванаиа, и сынове его приставлени рукою Хонении и Семеа брата его, якоже повеле Езекиа царь и Азариа началник дому Господня.
They were in charge of the following officers: Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers who assisted Conaniah and Shimei his brother. They were appointed by King Hezekiah and Azariah, the chief officer of God's Temple.
14 И Корей сын Иемнаин левит, дверник к востоку над даяньми, еже даяти начатки Господни и Святая святых,
Kore, son of Imnah, the Levite, the gatekeeper of the East Gate, was responsible for receiving the freewill offerings given to God. He also distributed the offerings given to the Lord, together with the consecrated gifts.
15 рукою Одома и Вениамина, и Иисуса и Семеа, и Амариа и Сехониа, рукою священников верно, даяти братии своей по чредам, малу и велику,
Under him were his assistants Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah. They faithfully made the allocations to their fellow Levites in their towns, according to the priestly divisions, sharing equally with the old and young.
16 кроме рожденных мужеска полу от лет триех и вышше, всем, иже вхождаху в церковь Господню по числу дний на день, в службу чред расположения их.
They also gave allowances to the males listed in the genealogy who were three years of age or older, to all who would enter the Lord's Temple to perform their daily duties of serving according to the responsibilities of their divisions.
17 Сие разделение священников по домом отечеств: и левити в чредах своих, от двадесяти лет и вышше, по чином, в разделениих.
They also gave allowances to the priests listed by family in the genealogy, and to the Levites twenty years of age or older, according to the responsibilities of their divisions.
18 Всякому рожденному жен их и сынов их и дщерей их во все множество, понеже верно освятиша святое.
The genealogy included all the babies, wives, sons, and daughters of the whole community, for they were faithful in making sure they dedicated themselves as holy.
19 И сыновом Аароним священствующым в селех, и иже от градов их во всяцем граде и граде, мужие иже именовани суть по имени, даяти часть всякому мужеску полу во священницех и всякому сочисляемому в левитех.
In the case of the priests, the descendants of Aaron, those who lived on the farmlands around their towns, men were appointed by name in all the towns to distribute an allocation to every male among the priests and to every Levite as listed in the genealogies.
20 И сотвори тако Езекиа во всей Иудеи, и сотвори благое и правое и истинное пред Господем Богом своим,
This is what Hezekiah did throughout the whole of Judah. He did what was good, right, and true before the Lord his God.
21 и во всяцем деле, еже нача делати в дому Господни, и в законе и в повелениих взыска Бога своего всем сердцем своим и сотвори, и благопоспешися ему.
In everything he did in working for God's Temple and in following God's laws and commandments, Hezekiah was sincere in his commitment to God. So he was successful in all he did.
