< Четвертая книга Царств 22 >
1 Сын осми лет бе Иосиа, егда нача царствовати, и тридесять едино лето царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Иедида, дщи Едеева, от Васурофа.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.
2 И сотвори правое пред очима Господнима, и хождаше во всех путех Давида отца своего, не совратися ни на десно, ни на шуее.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.
3 И бысть во осмоенадесять лето царства Иосиина, в седмый месяц, посла царь Сафана, сына Езелиина, сына Месолламля, книгочию дому Господня, глаголя:
And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,
4 взыди к Хелкии жерцу великому и запечатлей сребро внесеное в дом Господень, еже собраша стрегущии врат от людий,
Go to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers of the door have gathered from the people:
5 и да дадут е в руки творящих дела приставником в храме Господни: да дадят е творящым дела в дому Господни, еже подкрепляти разселины храма,
And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,
6 древоделем и каменосечцем и покупающым древа и камение тесаное на утверждение разселин храма.
To carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.
7 Обаче не сочисляху их о сребре даемем им, яко верно тии творяху.
But there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.
8 И рече Хелкиа жрец великий ко Сафану книгочию: книгу закона (Божия) обретох в дому Господни. И даде Хелкиа книгу Сафану, и прочте ю.
And Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.
9 И вниде в дом Господень и царю Иосии, и возвести царю слово и рече: слияша раби твои сребро обретшееся в дому Господни, и даша е приставницы в руки творящым дела в храме Господни.
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD.
10 И рече Сафан книгочия к царю, глаголя книгу закона даде ми Хелкиа жрец. И прочте ю Сафан пред царем.
And Shaphan the scribe showed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
11 И бысть яко услыша царь словеса книги законныя, и раздра ризы своя,
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he tore his clothes.
12 и заповеда царь Хелкии жрецу и Ахикаму сыну Сафаню, и Аховору сыну Михеину и Сафану книгочию и Асаию рабу цареву, глаголя:
And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah a servant of the king’s, saying,
13 приидите, испросите Господа о мне и о всех людех и о всем Иуде, и о словесех книги обретшияся сея, яко велик гнев Господень разжженый на нас, понеже не послушаша отцы наши словес книги сея, еже творити по всем написанным на ны.
Go ye, enquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.
14 И иде Хелкиа жрец и Ахикам, и Аховор и Сафан и Асаиас ко Олдаме пророчице, жене Селима сына Фекуева, сына Араса ризохранителя: и сия живяше во Иерусалиме в масене: и глаголаша к ней по сему.
So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the second quarter; ) and they talked with her.
15 И рече им: сице глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: рцыте мужеви пославшему вы ко мне:
And she said to them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Tell the man that sent you to me,
16 тако глаголет Господь: се, Аз наведу злая на место сие и на живущыя в нем, вся словеса книжная, яже прочте царь Иудин:
Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:
17 понеже оставиша Мя и кадяху богом другим, яко да прогневают Мя делесы рук своих, и разжжется ярость Моя на место сие и не угаснет:
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
18 и ко царю Иудину пославшему вас вопросити Господа, сице рцыте ему: тако глаголет Господь Бог Израилев: словеса, яже слышал еси,
But to the king of Judah who sent you to enquire of the LORD, thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, concerning the words which thou hast heard;
19 за сия, яко умягчися сердце твое и смирился еси пред лицем Господним, услышав елика глаголах на место сие и на живущыя в нем, еже быти в погубление и в проклятие, и раздрал еси ризы твоя, и плакался предо Мною, и Аз убо услышах, глаголет Господь:
Because thy heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast torn thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith the LORD.
20 сего ради Аз приложу тя ко отцем твоим, и соберешися во гроб твой в мире, и не узриши очима твоима всех злых, яже Аз имам навести на место сие и на живущыя в нем.
Behold therefore, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thy eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
