1And Ezechias sent to all Israel and Juda: and he wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasses, that they should come to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel.
1وَأَرْسَلَ حَزَقِيَّا إِلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا، وَكَتَبَ أَيْضًا رَسَائِلَ إِلَى أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى أَنْ يَأْتُوا إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيَعْمَلُوا فِصْحًا لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.
2For the king, taking counsel, and the princes, and all the assembly of Jerusalem, decreed to keep the phase the second month.
2فَتَشَاوَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُ وَكُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي،
3For they could not keep it in its time; because there were not priests enough sanctified, and the people was not as yet gathered together to Jerusalem.
3لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَعْمَلُوهُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْكَهَنَةَ لَمْ يَتَقَدَّسُوا بِٱلْكِفَايَةِ، وَٱلشَّعْبَ لَمْ يَجْتَمِعُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.
4And the thing pleased the king, and all the people.
4فَحَسُنَ ٱلْأَمْرُ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَعُيُونِ كُلِّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ.
5And they decreed to send messengers to all Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, that they should come, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel in Jerusalem: for many had not kept it as it is prescribed by the law.
5فَٱعْتَمَدُوا عَلَى إِطْلَاقِ ٱلنِّدَاءِ فِي جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ إِلَى دَانَ أَنْ يَأْتُوا لِعَمَلِ ٱلْفِصْحِ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَعْمَلُوهُ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ مُنْذُ زَمَانٍ كَثِيرٍ.
6And the posts went with letters by commandment of the king, and his princes, to all Israel and Juda, proclaiming according to the king’s orders: Ye children of Israel, turn again to the Lord the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Israel: and he will return to the remnant of you that have escaped the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
6فَذَهَبَ ٱلسُّعَاةُ بِٱلرَّسَائِلِ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَرُؤَسَائِهِ فِي جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَيَهُوذَا، وَحَسَبَ وَصِيَّةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ: «يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيَرْجِعَ إِلَى ٱلنَّاجِينَ ٱلْبَاقِينَ لَكُمْ مِنْ يَدِ مُلُوكِ أَشُّورَ.
7Be not like your fathers, and brethren, who departed from the Lord the God of their fathers, and he hath given them up to destruction, as you see.
7وَلَا تَكُونُوا كَآبَائِكُمْ وَكَإِخْوَتِكُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ خَانُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ فَجَعَلَهُمْ دَهْشَةً كَمَا أَنْتُمْ تَرَوْنَ.
8Harden not your necks, as your fathers did: yield yourselves to the Lord, and come to his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: serve the Lord the God of your fathers, and the wrath of his indignation shall be turned away from you.
8ٱلْآنَ لَا تُصَلِّبُوا رِقَابَكُمْ كَآبَائِكُمْ، بَلِ ٱخْضَعُوا لِلرَّبِّ وَٱدْخُلُوا مَقْدِسَهُ ٱلَّذِي قَدَّسَهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَٱعْبُدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ فَيَرْتَدَّ عَنْكُمْ حُمُوُّ غَضَبِهِ.
9For if you turn again to the Lord: your brethren, and children shall find mercy before their masters, that have led them away captive, and they shall return into this land: for the Lord your God is merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if you return to him.
9لِأَنَّهُ بِرُجُوعِكُمْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ يَجِدُ إِخْوَتُكُمْ وَبَنُوكُمْ رَحْمَةً أَمَامَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَسْبُونَهُمْ، فَيَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكُمْ حَنَّانٌ وَرَحِيمٌ، وَلَا يُحَوِّلُ وَجْهَهُ عَنْكُمْ إِذَا رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَيْهِ».
10So the posts went speedily from city to city, through the land of Ephraim, and of Manasses, even to Zabulon, whilst they laughed at them and mocked them.
10فَكَانَ ٱلسُّعَاةُ يَعْبُرُونَ مِنْ مَدِينَةٍ إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ فِي أَرْضِ أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى حَتَّى زَبُولُونَ، فَكَانُوا يَضْحَكُونَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَيَهْزَأُونَ بِهِمْ.
11Nevertheless some men of Aser, and of Manasses, and of Zabulon, yielding to the counsel, came to Jerusalem.
11إِلَّا إِنَّ قَوْمًا مِنْ أَشِيرَ وَمَنَسَّى وَزَبُولُونَ تَوَاضَعُوا وَأَتَوْا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.
12But the hand of God was in Juda, to give them one heart to do the word of the Lord, according to the commandment of the king, and of the princes.
12وَكَانَتْ يَدُ ٱللهِ فِي يَهُوذَا أَيْضًا، فَأَعْطَاهُمْ قَلْبًا وَاحِدًا لِيَعْمَلُوا بِأَمْرِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ، حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ.
13And much people were assembled to Jerusalem to celebrate the solemnity of the unleavened bread in the second month:
13فَٱجْتَمَعَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ شَعْبٌ كَثِيرٌ لِعَمَلِ عِيدِ ٱلْفَطِيرِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، جَمَاعَةٌ كَثِيرَةٌ جِدًّا.
14And they arose and destroyed the altars that were in Jerusalem, and took sway all things in which incense was burnt to idols, and cast them into the torrent Cedron.
14وَقَامُوا وَأَزَالُوا ٱلْمَذَابِحَ ٱلَّتِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَزَالُوا كُلَّ مَذَابِحِ ٱلتَّبْخِيرِ وَطَرَحُوهَا إِلَى وَادِي قَدْرُونَ.
15And they immolated the phase on the fourteenth day of the second month. And the priests and the Levites being at length sanctified offered holocausts in the house of the Lord.
15وَذَبَحُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ٱلرَّابِعِ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي. وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ خَجِلُوا وَتَقَدَّسُوا وَأَدْخَلُوا ٱلْمُحْرَقَاتِ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ،
16And they stood in their order according to the disposition, and law of Moses the man of God: but the priests received the blood which was to be poured out, from the hands of the Levites,
16وَأَقَامُوا عَلَى مَقَامِهِمْ حَسَبَ حُكْمِهِمْ كَنَامُوسِ مُوسَى رَجُلِ ٱللهِ. كَانَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ يَرُشُّونَ ٱلدَّمَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ.
17Because a great number was not sanctified: and therefore the Levites immolated the phase for them that came not in time to be sanctified to the Lord.
17لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ كَثِيرُونَ فِي ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ لَمْ يَتَقَدَّسُوا، فَكَانَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ عَلَى ذَبْحِ ٱلْفِصْحِ عَنْ كُلِّ مَنْ لَيْسَ بِطَاهِرٍ لِتَقْدِيسِهِمْ لِلرَّبِّ.
18For a great part of the people from Ephraim, and Manasses, and Issachar, and Zabulon, that had not been sanctified, ate the phase otherwise than it is written: and Ezechias prayed for them, saying: The Lord who is good will shew mercy,
18لِأَنَّ كَثِيرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ، كَثِيرِينَ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى وَيَسَّاكَرَ وَزَبُولُونَ لَمْ يَتَطَهَّرُوا، بَلْ أَكَلُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ لَيْسَ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ. إِلَّا إِنَّ حَزَقِيَّا صَلَّى عَنْهُمْ قَائِلًا: «ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلصَّالِحُ يُكَفِّرُ عَنْ
19To all them, who with their whole heart, seek the Lord the God of their fathers: and will not impute it to them that they are not sanctified.
19كُلِّ مَنْ هَيَّأَ قَلْبَهُ لِطَلَبِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ آبَائِهِ، وَلَيْسَ كَطَهَارَةِ ٱلْقُدْسِ».
20And the Lord heard him, and was merciful to the people.
20فَسَمِعَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِحَزَقِيَّا وَشَفَى ٱلشَّعْبَ.
21And the children of Israel, that were found at Jerusalem, kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great joy, praising the Lord every day: the Levites also, and the priests, with instruments that agreed to their office.
21وَعَمِلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمَوْجُودُونَ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عِيدَ ٱلْفَطِيرِ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ بِفَرَحٍ عَظِيمٍ، وَكَانَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ يُسَبِّحُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا بِآلَاتِ حَمْدٍ لِلرَّبِّ.
22And Ezechias spoke to the heart of all the Levites, that had good understanding concerning the Lord: and they ate during the seven days of the solemnity, immolating victims of peace offerings, and praising the Lord the God of their fathers.
22وَطَيَّبَ حَزَقِيَّا قُلُوبَ جَمِيعِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ ٱلْفَطِنِينَ فِطْنَةً صَالِحَةً لِلرَّبِّ، وَأَكَلُوا ٱلْمَوْسِمَ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ يَذْبَحُونَ ذَبَائِحَ سَلَامَةٍ وَيَحْمَدُونَ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَ آبَائِهِمْ.
23And it pleased the whole multitude to keep other seven days: which they did with great joy.
23وَتَشَاوَرَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ أُخْرَى، فَعَمِلُوا سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ بِفَرَحٍ.
24For Ezechias the king of Juda had given to the multitude a thousand bullocks, and seven thousand sheep: and the princes had given the people a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests was sanctified.
24لِأَنَّ حَزَقِيَّا مَلِكَ يَهُوذَا قَدَّمَ لِلْجَمَاعَةِ أَلْفَ ثَوْرٍ وَسَبْعَةَ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلضَّأْنِ، وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ قَدَّمُوا لِلْجَمَاعَةِ أَلْفَ ثَوْرٍ وَعَشَرَةَ آلَافٍ مِنَ ٱلضَّأْنِ، وَتَقَدَّسَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ.
25And all the multitude of Juda with the priests and Levites, and all the assembly, that came out of Israel; and the proselytes of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Juda were full of joy.
25وَفَرِحَ كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ يَهُوذَا، وَٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ، وَكُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ ٱلْآتِينَ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَٱلْغُرَبَاءُ ٱلْآتُونَ مِنْ أَرْضِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي يَهُوذَا.
26And there was a great solemnity in Jerusalem, such as had not been in that city since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel.
26وَكَانَ فَرَحٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُ مِنْ أَيَّامِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لَمْ يَكُنْ كَهَذَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ.
27And the priests and the Levites rose up and blessed the people: and their voice was heard: and their prayer came to the holy dwelling place of heaven.
27وَقَامَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ وَبَارَكُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ، فَسُمِعَ صَوْتُهُمْ وَدَخَلَتْ صَلَاتُهُمْ إِلَى مَسْكَنِ قُدْسِهِ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ.
