1Josias was eight years old when he began to reign: he reigned one and thirty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Idida, the daughter of Hadaia, of Besecath.
1約西亞 登基的時候年八歲,在 耶路撒冷 作王三十一年。他母親名叫 耶底大 ,是 波斯加 人 亞大雅 的女兒。
2And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the ways of David his father: he turned not aside to the right hand, or to the left.
2約西亞 行耶和華眼中看為正的事,行他祖 大衛 一切所行的,不偏左右。
3And in the eighteenth year of king Josias, the king sent Saphan the son of Assia, the son of Messulam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:
3約西亞 王十八年,王差遣 米書蘭 的孫子、 亞薩利 的兒子-書記 沙番 上耶和華殿去,吩咐他說:
4Go to Helcias the high priest, that the money may be put together which is brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have gathered of the people.
4「你去見大祭司 希勒家 ,使他將奉到耶和華殿的銀子,就是守門的從民中收聚的銀子,數算數算,
5And let it be given to the workmen by the overseers of the house of the Lord: and lot them distribute it to those that work in the temple of the Lord, to repair the temple:
5交給耶和華殿裏辦事的人,使他們轉交耶和華殿裏做工的人,好修理殿的破壞之處,
6That is, to carpenters and masons, and to such as mend breaches: and that timber may be bought, and stones out of the quarries, to repair the temple of the Lord.
6就是轉交木匠和工人,並瓦匠,又買木料和鑿成的石頭修理殿宇,
7But let there be no reckoning made with them of the money which they receive, but let them have it in their power, and in their trust.
7將銀子交在辦事的人手裏,不與他們算帳,因為他們辦事誠實。」
8And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord: and Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.
8大祭司 希勒家 對書記 沙番 說:「我在耶和華殿裏得了律法書。」 希勒家 將書遞給 沙番 , 沙番 就看了。
9And Saphan the scribe came to the king, and brought him word again concerning that which he had commanded, and said: Thy servants have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and they have given it to be distributed to the workmen, by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.
9書記 沙番 到王那裏,回覆王說:「你的僕人已將殿裏的銀子倒出數算,交給耶和華殿裏辦事的人了。」
10And Saphan the scribe told the king, saying: Helcias the priest hath delivered to me a book. And when Saphan had read it before the king,
10書記 沙番 又對王說:「祭司 希勒家 遞給我一卷書。」 沙番 就在王面前讀那書。
11And the king had heard the words of the law of the Lord, he rent his garments.
11王聽見律法書上的話,便撕裂衣服,
12And he commanded Helcias the priest, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Achobor the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaia the king’s servant, saying:
12吩咐祭司 希勒家 與 沙番 的兒子 亞希甘 、 米該亞 的兒子 亞革波 、書記 沙番 和王的臣僕 亞撒雅 ,說:
13Go and consult the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Juda, concerning the words of this book which is found: for the great wrath of the Lord is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened to the words of this book, to do all that is written for us.
13「你們去為我、為民、為 猶大 眾人,以這書上的話求問耶和華;因為我們列祖沒有聽從這書上的言語,沒有遵着書上所吩咐我們的去行,耶和華就向我們大發烈怒。」
14So Helcias the priest, and Ahicam, and Achobor, and Saphan, and Asaia went to Holda the prophetess the wife of Sellum the son of Thecua, the son of Araas keeper of the wardrobe, who dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second: and they spoke to her.
14於是,祭司 希勒家 和 亞希甘 、 亞革波 、 沙番 、 亞撒雅 都去見女先知 戶勒大 。 戶勒大 是掌管禮服 沙龍 的妻; 沙龍 是 哈珥哈斯 的孫子、 特瓦 的兒子。 戶勒大 住在 耶路撒冷 第二區。他們請問於她。
15And she said to them: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Tell the man that sent you to me:
15她對他們說:「耶和華- 以色列 的上帝如此說:『你們可以回覆那差遣你們來見我的人說,
16Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will bring evils upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, all the words of the law which the king of Juda hath read:
16耶和華如此說:我必照着 猶大 王所讀那書上的一切話,降禍與這地和其上的居民。
17Because they have forsaken me, and have sacrificed to strange gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands: therefore my indignation shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
17因為他們離棄我,向別神燒香,用他們手所做的惹我發怒,所以我的忿怒必向這地發作,總不止息。』
18But to the king of Juda, who sent you to consult the Lord, thus shall you say: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Forasmuch as thou hast heard the words of the book,
18然而,差遣你們來求問耶和華的 猶大 王,你們要這樣回覆他說:『耶和華- 以色列 的上帝如此說:至於你所聽見的話,
19And thy heart hath been moved to fear, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, hearing the words against this place, and the inhabitants thereof, to wit, that they should become a wonder and a curse: and thou hast rent thy garments, and wept before me, I also have heard thee, saith the Lord:
19就是聽見我指着這地和其上的居民所說、要使這地變為荒場、民受咒詛的話,你便心裏敬服,在我面前自卑,撕裂衣服,向我哭泣,因此我應允了你。這是我-耶和華說的。
20Therefore I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy sepulchre in peace, that thy eyes may not see all the evils which I will bring; upon this place.
20我必使你平平安安地歸到墳墓到你列祖那裏;我要降與這地的一切災禍,你也不致親眼看見。』」他們就回覆王去了。
