歷代志下 29

希西家登基的時候年二十五歲，在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母親名叫亞比雅，是撒迦利雅的女兒。

xī xī jiā dēng jī de shí hòu nián èr shí wǔ suì ， zài yē lù sā lěng zuò wáng èr shí jiǔ nián 。 tā mǔ qīn míng jiào yà bǐ yǎ ， shì sā jiā lì yǎ de nǚ ér 。

Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

希西家行耶和華眼中看為正的事，效法他祖大衛一切所行的。

xī xī jiā xíng yē hé huá yǎn zhōng kàn wèi zhèng de shì ， xiào fǎ tā zǔ dà wèi yí qiè suǒ xíng de 。

He did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, according to all that David his father had done.

元年正月，開了耶和華殿的門，重新修理。

yuán nián zhēng yuè ， kāi le yē hé huá diàn de mén ， chóng xīn xiū lǐ 。

In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he opened the doors of the LORD’s house and repaired them.

他召眾祭司和利未人來，聚集在東邊的寬闊處，

tā zhào zhòng jì sī hé lì wèi rén lái ， jù jí zài dōng biān de kuān kuò chù ，

He brought in the priests and the Levites and gathered them together into the wide place on the east,

對他們說：「利未人哪，當聽我說：現在你們要潔淨自己，又潔淨耶和華－你們列祖上帝的殿，從聖所中除去污穢之物。

duì tā men shuō ：「 lì wèi rén nǎ ， dāng tīng wǒ shuō ： xiàn zài nǐ men yào jié jìng zì jǐ ， yòu jié jìng yē hé huá — nǐ men liè zǔ shén de diàn ， cóng shèng suǒ zhōng chú qù wū huì zhī wù 。

and said to them, “Listen to me, you Levites! Now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the LORD, the God of your fathers, and carry the filthiness out of the holy place.

我們列祖犯了罪，行耶和華－我們上帝眼中看為惡的事，離棄他，轉臉背向他的居所，

wǒ men liè zǔ fàn le zuì ， xíng yē hé huá — wǒ men shén yǎn zhōng kàn wèi è de shì ， lí qì tā ， zhuǎn liǎn bèi xiàng tā de jū suǒ ，

For our fathers were unfaithful, and have done that which was evil in the LORD our God’s sight, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their faces from the habitation of the LORD, and turned their backs.

封鎖廊門，吹滅燈火，不在聖所中向以色列上帝燒香，或獻燔祭。

fēng suǒ láng mén ， chuī miè dēng huǒ ， bú zài shèng suǒ zhōng xiàng yǐ sè liè shén shāo xiāng ， huò xiàn fán jì 。

Also they have shut up the doors of the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burned incense nor offered burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.

因此，耶和華的忿怒臨到猶大和耶路撒冷，將其中的人拋來拋去，令人驚駭、嗤笑，正如你們親眼所見的。

yīn cǐ ， yē hé huá de fèn nù lín dào yóu dà hé yē lù sā lěng ， jiāng qí zhōng de rén pāo lái pāo qù ， lìng rén jīng hài 、 chī xiào ， zhèng rú nǐ men qīn yǎn suǒ jiàn de 。

Therefore the LORD’s wrath was on Judah and Jerusalem, and he has delivered them to be tossed back and forth, to be an astonishment and a hissing, as you see with your eyes.

所以我們的祖宗倒在刀下，我們的妻子兒女也被擄掠。

suǒ yǐ wǒ men de zǔ zōng dǎo zài dāo xià ， wǒ men de qī zǐ ér nǚ yě bèi lǔ lüè 。

For behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity for this.

現在我心中有意與耶和華－以色列的上帝立約，好使他的烈怒轉離我們。

xiàn zài wǒ xīn zhōng yǒu yì yǔ yē hé huá — yǐ sè liè de shén lì yuē ， hǎo shǐ tā de liè nù zhuǎn lí wǒ men 。

Now it is in my heart to make a covenant with the LORD, the God of Israel, that his fierce anger may turn away from us.

我的眾子啊，現在不要懈怠；因為耶和華揀選你們站在他面前事奉他，與他燒香。」

wǒ de zhòng zǐ a ， xiàn zài bú yào xiè dài ； yīn wèi yē hé huá jiǎn xuǎn nǐ men zhàn zài tā miàn qián shì fèng tā ， yǔ tā shāo xiāng 。」

My sons, don’t be negligent now; for the LORD has chosen you to stand before him, to minister to him, and that you should be his ministers and burn incense.”

於是，利未人哥轄的子孫、亞瑪賽的兒子瑪哈，亞撒利雅的兒子約珥；米拉利的子孫、亞伯底的兒子基士，耶哈利勒的兒子亞撒利雅；革順的子孫、薪瑪的兒子約亞，約亞的兒子伊甸；

yú shì ， lì wèi rén gē xiá de zǐ sūn 、 yà mǎ sài de ér zi mǎ hā ， yà sā lì yǎ de ér zi yuē ěr ； mǐ lā lì de zǐ sūn 、 yà bó dǐ de ér zi jī shì ， yē hā lì lè de ér zi yà sā lì yǎ ； gé shùn de zǐ sūn 、 xīn mǎ de ér zi yuē yà ， yuē yà de ér zi yī diàn ；

Then the Levites arose: Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; and of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi, and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; and of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah, and Eden the son of Joah;

以利撒反的子孫申利和耶利；亞薩的子孫撒迦利雅和瑪探雅；

yǐ lì sā fǎn de zǐ sūn shēn lì hé yē lì ； yà sà de zǐ sūn sā jiā lì yǎ hé mǎ tàn yǎ ；

and of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; and of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;

希幔的子孫耶歇和示每；耶杜頓的子孫示瑪雅和烏薛；

xī màn de zǐ sūn yē xiē hé shì měi ； yē dù dùn de zǐ sūn shì mǎ yǎ hé wū xuē ；

and of the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; and of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.

起來聚集他們的弟兄，潔淨自己，照着王的吩咐、耶和華的命令，進去潔淨耶和華的殿。

qǐ lái jù jí tā men de dì xiong ， jié jìng zì jǐ ， zhào zhe wáng de fēn fù 、 yē hé huá de mìng lìng ， jìn qù jié jìng yē hé huá de diàn 。

They gathered their brothers, sanctified themselves, and went in, according to the commandment of the king by the LORD’s words, to cleanse the LORD’s house.

祭司進入耶和華的殿要潔淨殿，將殿中所有污穢之物搬到耶和華殿的院內，利未人接去，搬到外頭汲淪溪邊。

jì sī jìn rù yē hé huá de diàn yào jié jìng diàn ， jiāng diàn zhōng suǒ yǒu wū huì zhī wù bān dào yē hé huá diàn de yuàn nèi ， lì wèi rén jiē qù ， bān dào wài tou jí lún xī biān 。

The priests went into the inner part of the LORD’s house to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the LORD’s temple into the court of the LORD’s house. The Levites took it from there to carry it out to the brook Kidron.

從正月初一日潔淨起，初八日到了耶和華的殿廊，用八日的工夫潔淨耶和華的殿，到正月十六日才潔淨完了。

cóng zhēng yuè chū yī rì jié jìng qǐ ， chū bā rì dào le yē hé huá de diàn láng ， yòng bā rì de gōng fū jié jìng yē hé huá de diàn ， dào zhēng yuè shí liù rì cái jié jìng wán le 。

Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the LORD’s porch. They sanctified the LORD’s house in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.

於是，他們晉見希西家王，說：「我們已將耶和華的全殿和燔祭壇，並壇的一切器皿、陳設餅的桌子，與桌子的一切器皿都潔淨了；

yú shì ， tā men jìn jiàn xī xī jiā wáng ， shuō ：「 wǒ men yǐ jiāng yē hé huá de quán diàn hé fán jì tán ， bìng tán de yí qiè qì mǐn 、 chén shè bǐng de zhuō zi ， yǔ zhuō zi de yí qiè qì mǐn dōu jié jìng le ；

Then they went in to Hezekiah the king within the palace and said, “We have cleansed all the LORD’s house, including the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels, and the table of show bread with all its vessels.

並且亞哈斯王在位犯罪的時候所廢棄的器皿，我們預備齊全，且潔淨了，現今都在耶和華的壇前。」

bìng qiě yà hā sī wáng zài wèi fàn zuì de shí hòu suǒ fèi qì de qì mǐn ， wǒ men yù bèi qí quán ， qiě jié jìng le ， xiàn jīn dōu zài yē hé huá de tán qián 。」

Moreover, we have prepared and sanctified all the vessels which King Ahaz threw away in his reign when he was unfaithful. Behold, they are before the LORD’s altar.”

希西家王清早起來，聚集城裏的首領都上耶和華的殿；

xī xī jiā wáng qīng zǎo qǐ lái ， jù jí chéng lǐ de shǒu lǐng dōu shàng yē hé huá de diàn ；

Then Hezekiah the king arose early, gathered the princes of the city, and went up to the LORD’s house.

牽了七隻公牛，七隻公羊，七隻羊羔，七隻公山羊，要為國、為殿、為猶大人作贖罪祭。王吩咐亞倫的子孫眾祭司，獻在耶和華的壇上，

qiān le qī zhī gōng niú ， qī zhī gōng yáng ， qī zhī yáng gāo ， qī zhī gōng shān yáng ， yào wèi guó 、 wèi diàn 、 wèi yóu dà rén zuò shú zuì jì 。 wáng fēn fù yà lún de zǐ sūn zhòng jì sī ， xiàn zài yē hé huá de tán shàng ，

They brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. He commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the LORD’s altar.

就宰了公牛，祭司接血灑在壇上，宰了公羊，把血灑在壇上，又宰了羊羔，也把血灑在壇上；

jiù zǎi le gōng niú ， jì sī jiē xuè sǎ zài tán shàng ， zǎi le gōng yáng ， bǎ xuè sǎ zài tán shàng ， yòu zǎi le yáng gāo ， yě bǎ xuè sǎ zài tán shàng ；

So they killed the bulls, and the priests received the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. They killed the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. They also killed the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.

把那作贖罪祭的公山羊牽到王和會眾面前，他們就按手在其上。

bǎ nà zuò shú zuì jì de gōng shān yáng qiān dào wáng hé huì zhòng miàn qián ， tā men jiù àn shǒu zài qí shàng 。

They brought near the male goats for the sin offering before the king and the assembly; and they laid their hands on them.

祭司宰了羊，將血獻在壇上作贖罪祭，為以色列眾人贖罪，因為王吩咐將燔祭和贖罪祭為以色列眾人獻上。

jì sī zǎi le yáng ， jiāng xuè xiàn zài tán shàng zuò shú zuì jì ， wèi yǐ sè liè zhòng rén shú zuì ， yīn wèi wáng fēn fù jiāng fán jì hé shú zuì jì wèi yǐ sè liè zhòng rén xiàn shàng 。

Then the priests killed them, and they made a sin offering with their blood on the altar, to make atonement for all Israel; for the king commanded that the burnt offering and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.

王又派利未人在耶和華殿中敲鈸，鼓瑟，彈琴，乃照大衛和他先見迦得，並先知拿單所吩咐的，就是耶和華藉先知所吩咐的。

wáng yòu pài lì wèi rén zài yē hé huá diàn zhōng qiāo bó ， gǔ sè ， tán qín ， nǎi zhào dà wèi hé tā xiān jiàn jiā dé ， bìng xiān zhī ná dān suǒ fēn fù de ， jiù shì yē hé huá jiè xiān zhī suǒ fēn fù de 。

He set the Levites in the LORD’s house with cymbals, with stringed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king’s seer, and Nathan the prophet; for the commandment was from the LORD by his prophets.

利未人拿大衛的樂器，祭司拿號，一同站立。

lì wèi rén ná dà wèi de yuè qì ， jì sī ná hào ， yì tóng zhàn lì 。

The Levites stood with David’s instruments, and the priests with the trumpets.

希西家吩咐在壇上獻燔祭，燔祭一獻，就唱讚美耶和華的歌，用號，並用以色列王大衛的樂器相和。

xī xī jiā fēn fù zài tán shàng xiàn fán jì ， fán jì yí xiàn ， jiù chàng zàn měi yē hé huá de gē ， yòng hào ， bìng yòng yǐ sè liè wáng dà wèi de yuè qì xiāng hé 。

Hezekiah commanded them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. When the burnt offering began, the LORD’s song also began, along with the trumpets and instruments of David king of Israel.

會眾都敬拜，歌唱的歌唱，吹號的吹號，如此直到燔祭獻完了。

huì zhòng dōu jìng bài ， gē chàng de gē chàng ， chuī hào de chuī hào ， rú cǐ zhí dào fán jì xiàn wán le 。

All the assembly worshiped, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sounded. All this continued until the burnt offering was finished.

獻完了祭，王和一切跟隨的人都俯伏敬拜。

xiàn wán le jì ， wáng hé yí qiè gēn suí de rén dōu fǔ fú jìng bài 。

When they had finished offering, the king and all who were present with him bowed themselves and worshiped.

希西家王與眾首領又吩咐利未人用大衛和先見亞薩的詩詞頌讚耶和華；他們就歡歡喜喜地頌讚耶和華，低頭敬拜。

xī xī jiā wáng yǔ zhòng shǒu lǐng yòu fēn fù lì wèi rén yòng dà wèi hé xiān jiàn yà sà de shī cí sòng zàn yē hé huá ； tā men jiù huān huān xǐ xǐ dì sòng zàn yē hé huá ， dī tóu jìng bài 。

Moreover Hezekiah the king and the princes commanded the Levites to sing praises to the LORD with the words of David, and of Asaph the seer. They sang praises with gladness, and they bowed their heads and worshiped.

希西家說：「你們既然歸耶和華為聖，就要前來把祭物和感謝祭奉到耶和華殿裏。」會眾就把祭物和感謝祭奉來，凡甘心樂意的也將燔祭奉來。

xī xī jiā shuō ：「 nǐ men jì rán guī yē hé huá wèi shèng ， jiù yào qián lái bǎ jì wù hé gǎn xiè jì fèng dào yē hé huá diàn lǐ 。」 huì zhòng jiù bǎ jì wù hé gǎn xiè jì fèng lái ， fán gān xīn lè yì de yě jiāng fán jì fèng lái 。

Then Hezekiah answered, “Now you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD. Come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the LORD’s house.” The assembly brought in sacrifices and thank offerings, and as many as were of a willing heart brought burnt offerings.

會眾所奉的燔祭如下：公牛七十隻，公羊一百隻，羊羔二百隻，這都是作燔祭獻給耶和華的；

huì zhòng suǒ fèng de fán jì rú xià ： gōng niú qī shí zhī ， gōng yáng yì bǎi zhī ， yáng gāo èr bǎi zhī ， zhè dōu shì zuò fán jì xiàn gěi yē hé huá de ；

The number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred lambs. All these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.

又有分別為聖之物，公牛六百隻，綿羊三千隻。

yòu yǒu fēn bié wèi shèng zhī wù ， gōng niú liù bǎi zhī ， mián yáng sān qiān zhī 。

The consecrated things were six hundred head of cattle and three thousand sheep.

但祭司太少，不能剝盡燔祭牲的皮，所以他們的弟兄利未人幫助他們，直等燔祭的事完了，又等別的祭司自潔了；因為利未人誠心自潔，勝過祭司。

dàn jì sī tài shǎo ， bù néng bāo jìn fán jì shēng de pí ， suǒ yǐ tā men de dì xiong lì wèi rén bāng zhù tā men ， zhí děng fán jì de shì wán le ， yòu děng bié de jì sī zì jié le ； yīn wèi lì wèi rén chéng xīn zì jié ， shèng guò jì sī 。

But the priests were too few, so that they could not skin all the burnt offerings. Therefore their brothers the Levites helped them until the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves, for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.

燔祭和平安祭牲的脂油，並燔祭同獻的奠祭甚多。這樣，耶和華殿中的事務俱都齊備了 。

fán jì hé píng ān jì shēng de zhī yóu ， bìng fán jì tóng xiàn de diàn jì shèn duō 。 zhè yàng ， yē hé huá diàn zhōng de shì wù jù dōu qí bèi le 。

Also the burnt offerings were in abundance, with the fat of the peace offerings and with the drink offerings for every burnt offering. So the service of the LORD’s house was set in order.

這事辦的甚速，希西家和眾民都喜樂，是因上帝為眾民所預備的。

zhè shì bàn de shèn sù ， xī xī jiā hé zhòng mín dōu xǐ lè ， shì yīn shén wèi zhòng mín suǒ yù bèi de 。

Hezekiah and all the people rejoiced because of that which God had prepared for the people; for the thing was done suddenly.
