Четвертая книга Царств 23
1 И возвестиша сия глаголы цареви: и посла царь, и собра к себе вся старейшины Иудины и Иерусалимляны,
And the king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
2 и вниде царь в дом Господень, и вси мужие Иудины и вси живущии во Иерусалиме с ним, и жерцы, и пророцы, и вси людие от мала и до велика, и прочте во ушеса их вся словеса книги завета обретшияся в дому Господни:
And the king went up into the house of Jehovah, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great; and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which had been found in the house of Jehovah.
3 и ста царь у столпа и завеща завет пред Господем, еже ходити вслед Господа и хранити заповеди Его и свидения Его и оправдания Его всем сердцем и всею душею, еже возставити словеса завета сего, яже писана в книзе сей. И сташа вси людие в завете.
And the king stood on the dais, and made a covenant before Jehovah, to walk after Jehovah, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all [his] heart, and with all [his] soul, to establish the words of this covenant that are written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
4 И заповеда царь Хелкии жерцу великому и жерцем вторым и стрегущым врат изнести от храма Господня вся сосуды сотвореныя Ваалу и Дубраве и всей силе небесней, и сожже и вне Иерусалима в Садимофе Кедрсте и изверже прах их в Вефиль:
And the king commanded Hilkijah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, to bring forth out of the temple of Jehovah all the vessels that had been made for Baal, and for the Asherah, and for all the host of the heavens; and he burned them outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them to Bethel.
5 и сожже хомаримы, ихже даша царие Иудины, и кадяху в высоких и во градех Иудиных и во окрестных Иерусалима, и кадящих Ваалу, и солнцу, и луне, и планетам и всей силе небесней:
And he abolished the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense on the high places in the cities of Judah, and the environs of Jerusalem; and them that burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the constellations, and to all the host of heaven.
6 и изнесе кумир из храма Господня вне Иерусалима на поток Кедрск, и сожже его в потоце Кедрсте, и истни в прах, и вверже прах их в гробы сынов людских:
And he brought out the Asherah from the house of Jehovah, outside Jerusalem, to the torrent of Kidron, and burned it at the torrent of Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder upon the graves of the children of the people.
7 и разруши храм кадисимов, иже бе в храме Господни, идеже жены прядяху ризы кумиру:
And he broke down the houses of the sodomites, which were in the house of Jehovah, where the women wove tents for the Asherah.
8 и возведе вся жерцы от градов Иудиных, и оскверни высокая, идеже кадяху жерцы, от Гаваи да Вирсавеи: и разруши храм врат, иже бе при дверех врат Иисуса князя граднаго, иже ошуюю входящым дверми града.
And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba even to Beer-sheba; and he broke down the high places of the gates, those at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, [and] those on the left hand of any [going in] at the gate of the city.
9 Обаче не вхождаху жерцы высоких ко олтарю Господню во Иерусалиме, но токмо ядяху опресноки посреде братии своея.
Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of Jehovah in Jerusalem, but they ate of the unleavened bread among their brethren.
10 И оскверни Тафефа, иже в дебри сынов Еномлих, еже не превести мужу сына своего и мужу дщере своея Молоху сквозе огнь:
And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, that no man might cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
11 и сожже кони, ихже даша царие Иудины солнцу во входе храму Господня, при влагалищи Нафана, царева скопца во Фаруриме: и колесницу солнечную сожже огнем:
And he abolished the horses that the kings of Judah had appointed to the sun at the entrance of the house of Jehovah, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun, with fire.
12 и олтари, яже на крове горницы Ахазовы, яже сотвориша царие Иудины и олтари, иже созда Манассиа во двою двору храма Господня, раскопа царь, и сверже оттуду, и всыпа прах их в поток Кедрск:
And the king broke down the altars that were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars that Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of Jehovah, and he shattered them, [removing them] from thence, and cast the powder of them into the torrent of Kidron.
13 и храм, иже пред лицем Иерусалима, одесную горы Мосфаф, егоже созда Соломон царь Израилев Астарте мерзости Сидонстей и Хамосу мерзости Моавли и Молхолу мерзости сынов Аммоних, оскверни царь:
And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.
14 и сокруши столпы, и искорени дубравы, и наполни места их костми человеческими:
And he broke in pieces the columns, and cut down the Asherahs, and filled their place with the bones of men.
15 и олтарь иже во Вефили высокий, егоже сотвори Иеровоам сын Наватов, иже в грех введе Израиля, и олтарь той высокий раскопа, и сокруши камение его, и истни в прах, и сожже кумиры.
Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, the high place that Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he broke down; and burned the high place, stamped it small to powder, and burned the Asherah.
16 И восклонися Иосиа, и виде гробы сущыя во граде тамо, и посла, и взя кости от гроб, и сожже на олтари, и оскверни его по глаголу Господню, егоже глагола человек Божий, егда стояше Иеровоам в праздник пред олтарем: и обращься возведе очи свои на гроб человека Божия глаголавшаго словеса сия.
And Josiah turned himself, and saw the sepulchres that were there on the mount; and he sent and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned [them] upon the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of Jehovah, that the man of God had proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
17 И рече: что могила сия, юже аз вижду? И реша ему мужие града: гроб сей человека Божия есть, иже прииде от Иуды и проглагола словеса сия, яже сотворил еси ныне над олтарем, иже в Вефили.
Then he said, What tombstone is that which I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things which thou hast done against the altar of Bethel.
18 И рече: оставите его, да не подвижет ни един муж костей его. И оставиша кости его с костьми пророка пришедшаго от Самарии.
And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. And they saved his bones, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
19 Еще и вся храмы высоких сущих во градех Самарийских, яже сотвориша царие Израилевы прогневляюще Господа, отверже Иосиа, и сотвори им вся дела, яже сотвори в Вефили,
And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke [Jehovah] to anger, Josiah removed, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.
20 и закла вся жерцы высоких сущыя тамо пред олтарми, и сожже на них кости человечи, и возвратися во Иерусалим.
And he sacrificed upon the altars all the priests of the high places that were there, and burned men's bones upon them. And he returned to Jerusalem.
21 И заповеда царь всем людем, глаголя: сотворите пасху Господеви Богу нашему, якоже писано в книзе завета сего:
And the king commanded all the people saying, Hold the passover to Jehovah your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.
22 яко не бысть пасха сия от дний судий, иже судиша Израилеви, и во всех днех царей Израилевых и царей Иудиных:
For there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
23 но токмо во осмоенадесять лето царя Иосии бысть пасха Господу во Иерусалиме.
but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this passover holden to Jehovah in Jerusalem.
24 Еще и волшебники, и вражбиты, и ферафимы, и кумиры, и вся мерзости бывшыя в земли Иудине и во Иерусалиме, искорени царь Иосиа, да утвердит словеса законная писанная в книзе, юже обрете Хелкиа жрец в храме Господни.
Moreover the necromancers and the soothsayers, and the teraphim and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, Josiah took away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkijah the priest had found in the house of Jehovah.
25 Подобен ему не бысть пред ним царь, иже обратися к Господеви всем сердцем своим и всею душею своею и всею силою своею по всему закону Моисеову, и по нем не воста подобен ему.
And before him there had been no king like him that turned to Jehovah with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there his like.
26 Обаче не отвратися Господь от ярости гнева Своего великаго, имже возярися гневом на Иуду, на прогневания, имиже прогнева Его Манассиа,
But Jehovah turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations with which Manasseh had provoked him.
27 и рече Господь: еще и Иуду отрину от лица Моего, якоже отринух Израиля, и град сей отвергу, егоже избрах, Иерусалима, и храм, о немже рех: будет имя Мое ту.
And Jehovah said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will reject this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
28 И прочая словес Иосиевых, и вся елика сотвори, не сия ли написана в книзе словес дний царей Иудиных?
And the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 Во днех же его взыде фараон Нехао царь Египетск на царя Ассирийска на реку Евфрат: и изыде царь Иосиа на сретение ему, и уби его Нехао царь в Магеддоне, егда его узре.
In his days Pharaoh-Nechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates; and king Josiah went against him; but [Nechoh] slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
30 И взяша его отроцы его мертва из Магеддона и принесоша его во Иерусалим, и погребоша его во гробе его во граде Давидове. И пояша людие земли тоя Иоахаза сына Иосиина и помазаша его, и воцариша его вместо отца его.
And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.
31 Сын двадесяти и триех лет бе Иоахаз, внегда нача царствовати и три месяцы царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Амитала, дщи Иеремии из Ловны.
Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32 И сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима, по всем елика сотвориша отцы его.
And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 И пресели его фараон Нехао в Ревлаам в землю Емаф, да не царствует во Иерусалиме, и возложи дань на землю ту сто талант сребра и сто талант злата.
And Pharaoh-Nechoh had him bound at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and laid a tribute upon the land of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
34 И постави царем фараон Нехао над ними Елиакима, сына Иосии царя Иудина, вместо Иосии отца его, и премени имя ему Иоаким: Иоахаза же взя и введе во Египет и умре тамо.
And Pharaoh-Nechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king instead of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And he took Jehoahaz; and he came to Egypt, and died there.
35 И сребро и злато даде Иоаким фараону, обаче написа землю даяти сребро по словеси фараоню: муж по оценению своему даяше сребро и злато от людий земли тоя даяти фараону Нехао.
And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he laid a proportional tax on the land to give the money according to the command of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his estimation, to give it to Pharaoh-Nechoh.
36 Сын бе двадесяти и пяти лет Иоаким, егда нача царствовати, и единонадесять лет царствова во Иерусалиме. Имя же матери его Иелдаф, дщи Фадаиля, от Румы.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Zebuddah, daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 И сотвори лукавое пред очима Господнима, по всем елика сотвориша отцы его.
And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his fathers had done.
