1. יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ מָלַךְ בֶּן־עֶשְׂרִים וְחָמֵשׁ שָׁנָה וְעֶשְׂרִים וָתֵשַׁע שָׁנָה מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וְשֵׁם אִמֹּו אֲבִיָּה בַּת־זְכַרְיָהוּ׃
|
1. Hezekiah H3169 began to reign H4427 when he was five H2568 and twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 , and he reigned H4427 nine H8672 and twenty H6242 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 's name H8034 was Abijah H29 , the daughter H1323 of Zechariah H2148 .
|
|
2. וַיַּעַשׂ הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה דָּוִיד אָבִיו׃
|
2. And he did H6213 that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 , according to all H3605 that H834 David H1732 his father H1 had done H6213 .
|
|
3. הוּא בַשָּׁנָה הָרִאשֹׁונָה לְמָלְכֹו בַּחֹדֶשׁ הָרִאשֹׁון פָּתַח אֶת־דַּלְתֹות בֵּית־יְהוָה וַיְחַזְּקֵם׃
|
3. He H1931 in the first H7223 year H8141 of his reign H4427 , in the first H7223 month H2320 , opened H6605 H853 the doors H1817 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and repaired H2388 them.
|
|
4. וַיָּבֵא אֶת־הַכֹּהֲנִים וְאֶת־הַלְוִיִּם וַיַּאַסְפֵם לִרְחֹוב הַמִּזְרָח׃
|
4. And he brought in H935 H853 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 , and gathered them together H622 into the east H4217 street H7339 ,
|
|
5. וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם שְׁמָעוּנִי הַלְוִיִּם עַתָּה הִתְקַדְּשׁוּ וְקַדְּשׁוּ אֶת־בֵּית יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹתֵיכֶם וְהֹוצִיאוּ אֶת־הַנִּדָּה מִן־הַקֹּדֶשׁ׃
|
5. And said H559 unto them, Hear H8085 me , ye Levites H3881 , sanctify now yourselves H6942 H6258 , and sanctify H6942 H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 God H430 of your fathers H1 , and carry forth H3318 H853 the filthiness H5079 out of H4480 the holy H6944 place .
|
|
6. כִּי־מָעֲלוּ אֲבֹתֵינוּ וְעָשׂוּ הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה־אֱלֹהֵינוּ וַיַּעַזְבֻהוּ וַיַּסֵּבּוּ פְנֵיהֶם מִמִּשְׁכַּן יְהוָה וַיִּתְּנוּ־עֹרֶף׃
|
6. For H3588 our fathers H1 have trespassed H4603 , and done H6213 that which was evil H7451 in the eyes H5869 of the LORD H3068 our God H430 , and have forsaken H5800 him , and have turned away H5437 their faces H6440 from the habitation H4480 H4908 of the LORD H3068 , and turned H5414 their backs H6203 .
|
|
7. גַּם סָגְרוּ דַּלְתֹות הָאוּלָם וַיְכַבּוּ אֶת־הַנֵּרֹות וּקְטֹרֶת לֹא הִקְטִירוּ וְעֹלָה לֹא־הֶעֱלוּ בַקֹּדֶשׁ לֵאלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
7. Also H1571 they have shut up H5462 the doors H1817 of the porch H197 , and put out H3518 H853 the lamps H5216 , and have not H3808 burned H6999 incense H7004 nor H3808 offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 in the holy H6944 place unto the God H430 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
8. וַיְהִי קֶצֶף יְהוָה עַל־יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלִָם וַיִּתְּנֵם לִזְוָעָה כ (לְזַעֲוָה ק) לְשַׁמָּה וְלִשְׁרֵקָה כַּאֲשֶׁר אַתֶּם רֹאִים בְּעֵינֵיכֶם׃
|
8. Wherefore the wrath H7110 of the LORD H3068 was H1961 upon H5921 Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , and he hath delivered H5414 them to trouble H2189 , to astonishment H8047 , and to hissing H8322 , as H834 ye H859 see H7200 with your eyes H5869 .
|
|
9. וְהִנֵּה נָפְלוּ אֲבֹותֵינוּ בֶּחָרֶב וּבָנֵינוּ וּבְנֹותֵינוּ וְנָשֵׁינוּ בַּשְּׁבִי עַל־זֹאת׃
|
9. For, lo H2009 , our fathers H1 have fallen H5307 by the sword H2719 , and our sons H1121 and our daughters H1323 and our wives H802 are in captivity H7628 for H5921 this H2063 .
|
|
10. עַתָּה עִם־לְבָבִי לִכְרֹות בְּרִית לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְיָשֹׁב מִמֶּנּוּ חֲרֹון אַפֹּו׃
|
10. Now H6258 it is in H5973 mine heart H3824 to make H3772 a covenant H1285 with the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 , that his fierce H2740 wrath H639 may turn away H7725 from H4480 us.
|
|
11. בָּנַי עַתָּה אַל־תִּשָּׁלוּ כִּי־בָכֶם בָּחַר יְהוָה לַעֲמֹד לְפָנָיו לְשָׁרְתֹו וְלִהְיֹות לֹו מְשָׁרְתִים וּמַקְטִרִים׃ ס
|
11. My sons H1121 , be not H408 now H6258 negligent H7952 : for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath chosen H977 you to stand H5975 before H6440 him , to serve H8334 him , and that ye should minister H1961 H8334 unto him , and burn incense H6999 .
|
|
12. וַיָּקֻמוּ הַלְוִיִּם מַחַת בֶּן־עֲמָשַׂי וְיֹואֵל בֶּן־עֲזַרְיָהוּ מִן־בְּנֵי הַקְּהָתִי וּמִן־בְּנֵי מְרָרִי קִישׁ בֶּן־עַבְדִּי וַעֲזַרְיָהוּ בֶּן־יְהַלֶּלְאֵל וּמִן־הַגֵּרְשֻׁנִּי יֹואָח בֶּן־זִמָּה וְעֵדֶן בֶּן־יֹואָח׃
|
12. Then the Levites H3881 arose H6965 , Mahath H4287 the son H1121 of Amasai H6022 , and Joel H3100 the son H1121 of Azariah H5838 , of H4480 the sons H1121 of the Kohathites H6956 : and of H4480 the sons H1121 of Merari H4847 , Kish H7027 the son H1121 of Abdi H5660 , and Azariah H5838 the son H1121 of Jehalelel H3094 : and of H4480 the Gershonites H1649 ; Joah H3098 the son H1121 of Zimmah H2155 , and Eden H5731 the son H1121 of Joah H3098 :
|
|
13. וּמִן־בְּנֵי אֱלִיצָפָן שִׁמְרִי וִיעוּאֵל כ (וִיעִיאֵל ק) וּמִן־בְּנֵי אָסָף זְכַרְיָהוּ וּמַתַּנְיָהוּ׃ ס
|
13. And of H4480 the sons H1121 of Elizaphan H469 ; Shimri H8113 , and Jeiel H3273 : and of H4480 the sons H1121 of Asaph H623 ; Zechariah H2148 , and Mattaniah H4983 :
|
|
14. וּמִן־בְּנֵי הֵימָן יְחוּאֵל כ (יְחִיאֵל ק) וְשִׁמְעִי ס וּמִן־בְּנֵי יְדוּתוּן שְׁמַעְיָה וְעֻזִּיאֵל׃
|
14. And of H4480 the sons H1121 of Heman H1968 ; Jehiel H3171 , and Shimei H8096 : and of H4480 the sons H1121 of Jeduthun H3038 ; Shemaiah H8098 , and Uzziel H5816 .
|
|
15. וַיַּאַסְפוּ אֶת־אֲחֵיהֶם וַיִּתְקַדְּשׁוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ כְמִצְוַת־הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּדִבְרֵי יְהוָה לְטַהֵר בֵּית יְהוָה׃
|
15. And they gathered H622 H853 their brethren H251 , and sanctified themselves H6942 , and came H935 , according to the commandment H4687 of the king H4428 , by the words H1697 of the LORD H3068 , to cleanse H2891 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
16. וַיָּבֹאוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים לִפְנִימָה בֵית־יְהוָה לְטַהֵר וַיֹּוצִיאוּ אֵת כָּל־הַטֻּמְאָה אֲשֶׁר מָצְאוּ בְּהֵיכַל יְהוָה לַחֲצַר בֵּית יְהוָה וַיְקַבְּלוּ הַלְוִיִּם לְהֹוצִיא לְנַחַל־קִדְרֹון חוּצָה׃
|
16. And the priests H3548 went H935 into the inner part H6441 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , to cleanse H2891 it , and brought out H3318 H853 all H3605 the uncleanness H2932 that H834 they found H4672 in the temple H1964 of the LORD H3068 into the court H2691 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 . And the Levites H3881 took H6901 it , to carry it out H3318 abroad H2351 into the brook H5158 Kidron H6939 .
|
|
17. וַיָּחֵלּוּ בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ הָרִאשֹׁון לְקַדֵּשׁ וּבְיֹום שְׁמֹונָה לַחֹדֶשׁ בָּאוּ לְאוּלָם יְהוָה וַיְקַדְּשׁוּ אֶת־בֵּית־יְהוָה לְיָמִים שְׁמֹונָה וּבְיֹום שִׁשָּׁה עָשָׂר לַחֹדֶשׁ הָרִאשֹׁון כִּלּוּ׃ ס
|
17. Now they began H2490 on the first H259 day of the first H7223 month H2320 to sanctify H6942 , and on the eighth H8083 day H3117 of the month H2320 came H935 they to the porch H197 of the LORD H3068 : so they sanctified H6942 H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 in eight H8083 days H3117 ; and in the sixteenth H8337 H6240 day H3117 of the first H7223 month H2320 they made an end H3615 .
|
|
18. וַיָּבֹואוּ פְנִימָה אֶל־חִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמְרוּ טִהַרְנוּ אֶת־כָּל־בֵּית יְהוָה אֶת־מִזְבַּח הָעֹולָה וְאֶת־כָּל־כֵּלָיו וְאֶת־שֻׁלְחַן הַמַּעֲרֶכֶת וְאֶת־כָּל־כֵּלָיו׃
|
18. Then they went H935 in H6441 to H413 Hezekiah H2396 the king H4428 , and said H559 , We have cleansed H2891 H853 all H3605 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 , and the altar H4196 of burnt offering H5930 , with all H3605 the vessels H3627 thereof , and the shewbread H4635 table H7979 , with H853 all H3605 the vessels H3627 thereof.
|
|
19. וְאֵת כָּל־הַכֵּלִים אֲשֶׁר הִזְנִיחַ הַמֶּלֶךְ אָחָז בְּמַלְכוּתֹו בְּמַעֲלֹו הֵכַנּוּ וְהִקְדָּשְׁנוּ וְהִנָּם לִפְנֵי מִזְבַּח יְהוָה׃ ס
|
19. Moreover all H3605 the vessels H3627 , which H834 king H4428 Ahaz H271 in his reign H4438 did cast away H2186 in his transgression H4604 , have we prepared H3559 and sanctified H6942 , and, behold H2009 , they are before H6440 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
20. וַיַּשְׁכֵּם יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֶּאֱסֹף אֵת שָׂרֵי הָעִיר וַיַּעַל בֵּית יְהוָה׃
|
20. Then Hezekiah H3169 the king H4428 rose early H7925 , and gathered H622 H853 the rulers H8269 of the city H5892 , and went up H5927 to the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
21. וַיָּבִיאוּ פָרִים־שִׁבְעָה וְאֵילִים שִׁבְעָה וּכְבָשִׂים שִׁבְעָה וּצְפִירֵי עִזִּים שִׁבְעָה לְחַטָּאת עַל־הַמַּמְלָכָה וְעַל־הַמִּקְדָּשׁ וְעַל־יְהוּדָה וַיֹּאמֶר לִבְנֵי אַהֲרֹן הַכֹּהֲנִים לְהַעֲלֹות עַל־מִזְבַּח יְהוָה׃
|
21. And they brought H935 seven H7651 bullocks H6499 , and seven H7651 rams H352 , and seven H7651 lambs H3532 , and seven H7651 he goats H6842 H5795 , for a sin offering H2403 for H5921 the kingdom H4467 , and for H5921 the sanctuary H4720 , and for H5921 Judah H3063 . And he commanded H559 the priests H3548 the sons H1121 of Aaron H175 to offer H5927 them on H5921 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
22. וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ הַבָּקָר וַיְקַבְּלוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים אֶת־הַדָּם וַיִּזְרְקוּ הַמִּזְבֵּחָה וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ הָאֵלִים וַיִּזְרְקוּ הַדָּם הַמִּזְבֵּחָה וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ הַכְּבָשִׂים וַיִּזְרְקוּ הַדָּם הַמִּזְבֵּחָה׃
|
22. So they killed H7819 the bullocks H1241 , and the priests H3548 received H6901 H853 the blood H1818 , and sprinkled H2236 it on the altar H4196 : likewise , when they had killed H7819 the rams H352 , they sprinkled H2236 the blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 : they killed H7819 also the lambs H3532 , and they sprinkled H2236 the blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 .
|
|
23. וַיַּגִּישׁוּ אֶת־שְׂעִירֵי הַחַטָּאת לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַקָּהָל וַיִּסְמְכוּ יְדֵיהֶם עֲלֵיהֶם׃
|
23. And they brought forth H5066 H853 the he goats H8163 for the sin offering H2403 before H6440 the king H4428 and the congregation H6951 ; and they laid H5564 their hands H3027 upon H5921 them:
|
|
24. וַיִּשְׁחָטוּם הַכֹּהֲנִים וַיְחַטְּאוּ אֶת־דָּמָם הַמִּזְבֵּחָה לְכַפֵּר עַל־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי לְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל אָמַר הַמֶּלֶךְ הָעֹולָה וְהַחַטָּאת׃
|
24. And the priests H3548 killed H7819 them , and they made reconciliation H2398 with H854 their blood H1818 upon the altar H4196 , to make an atonement H3722 for H5921 all H3605 Israel H3478 : for H3588 the king H4428 commanded H559 that the burnt offering H5930 and the sin offering H2403 should be made for all H3605 Israel H3478 .
|
|
25. וַיַּעֲמֵד אֶת־הַלְוִיִּם בֵּית יְהוָה בִּמְצִלְתַּיִם בִּנְבָלִים וּבְכִנֹּרֹות בְּמִצְוַת דָּוִיד וְגָד חֹזֵה־הַמֶּלֶךְ וְנָתָן הַנָּבִיא כִּי בְיַד־יְהוָה הַמִּצְוָה בְּיַד־נְבִיאָיו׃ ס
|
25. And he set H5975 H853 the Levites H3881 in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 with cymbals H4700 , with psalteries H5035 , and with harps H3658 , according to the commandment H4687 of David H1732 , and of Gad H1410 the king H4428 's seer H2374 , and Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 : for H3588 so was the commandment H4687 of the LORD H3068 by H3027 his prophets H5030 .
|
|
26. וַיַּעַמְדוּ הַלְוִיִּם בִּכְלֵי דָוִיד וְהַכֹּהֲנִים בַּחֲצֹצְרֹות׃ ס
|
26. And the Levites H3881 stood H5975 with the instruments H3627 of David H1732 , and the priests H3548 with the trumpets H2689 .
|
|
27. וַיֹּאמֶר חִזְקִיָּהוּ לְהַעֲלֹות הָעֹלָה לְהַמִּזְבֵּחַ וּבְעֵת הֵחֵל הָעֹולָה הֵחֵל שִׁיר־יְהוָה וְהַחֲצֹצְרֹות וְעַל־יְדֵי כְּלֵי דָּוִיד מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
27. And Hezekiah H2396 commanded H559 to offer H5927 the burnt offering H5930 upon the altar H4196 . And when H6256 the burnt offering H5930 began H2490 , the song H7892 of the LORD H3068 began H2490 also with the trumpets H2689 , and with H5921 the instruments H3027 H3627 ordained by David H1732 king H4428 of Israel H3478 .
|
|
28. וְכָל־הַקָּהָל מִשְׁתַּחֲוִים וְהַשִּׁיר מְשֹׁורֵר וְהַחֲצֹצְרֹות מַחֲצֹצְרִים כ (מַחְצְרִים ק) הַכֹּל עַד לִכְלֹות הָעֹלָה׃
|
28. And all H3605 the congregation H6951 worshiped H7812 , and the singers H7892 sang H7891 , and the trumpeters H2689 sounded H2690 : and all H3605 this continued until H5704 the burnt offering H5930 was finished H3615 .
|
|
29. וּכְכַלֹּות לְהַעֲלֹות כָּרְעוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכָל־הַנִּמְצְאִים אִתֹּו וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ׃
|
29. And when they had made an end H3615 of offering H5927 , the king H4428 and all H3605 that were present H4672 with H854 him bowed H3766 themselves , and worshiped H7812 .
|
|
30. וַיֹּאמֶר יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וְהַשָּׂרִים לַלְוִיִּם לְהַלֵּל לַיהוָה בְּדִבְרֵי דָוִיד וְאָסָף הַחֹזֶה וַיְהַלְלוּ עַד־לְשִׂמְחָה וַיִּקְּדוּ וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ׃ פ
|
30. Moreover Hezekiah H3169 the king H4428 and the princes H8269 commanded H559 the Levites H3881 to sing praise H1984 unto the LORD H3068 with the words H1697 of David H1732 , and of Asaph H623 the seer H2374 . And they sang praises H1984 with H5704 gladness H8057 , and they bowed their heads H6915 and worshiped H7812 .
|
|
31. וַיַּעַן יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ וַיֹּאמֶר עַתָּה מִלֵּאתֶם יֶדְכֶם לַיהוָה גֹּשׁוּ וְהָבִיאוּ זְבָחִים וְתֹודֹות לְבֵית יְהוָה וַיָּבִיאוּ הַקָּהָל זְבָחִים וְתֹודֹות וְכָל־נְדִיב לֵב עֹלֹות׃
|
31. Then Hezekiah H3169 answered H6030 and said H559 , Now H6258 ye have consecrated H4390 H3027 yourselves unto the LORD H3068 , come near H5066 and bring H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank offerings H8426 into the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 . And the congregation H6951 brought in H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank offerings H8426 ; and as many as H3605 were of a free H5081 heart H3820 burnt offerings H5930 .
|
|
32. וַיְהִי מִסְפַּר הָעֹלָה אֲשֶׁר הֵבִיאוּ הַקָּהָל בָּקָר שִׁבְעִים אֵילִים מֵאָה כְּבָשִׂים מָאתָיִם לְעֹלָה לַיהוָה כָּל־אֵלֶּה׃
|
32. And the number H4557 of the burnt offerings H5930 , which H834 the congregation H6951 brought H935 , was H1961 threescore and ten H7657 bullocks H1241 , a hundred H3967 rams H352 , and two hundred H3967 lambs H3532 : all H3605 these H428 were for a burnt offering H5930 to the LORD H3068 .
|
|
33. וְהַקֳּדָשִׁים בָּקָר שֵׁשׁ מֵאֹות וְצֹאן שְׁלֹשֶׁת אֲלָפִים׃
|
33. And the consecrated things H6944 were six H8337 hundred H3967 oxen H1241 and three H7969 thousand H505 sheep H6629 .
|
|
34. רַק הַכֹּהֲנִים הָיוּ לִמְעָט וְלֹא יָכְלוּ לְהַפְשִׁיט אֶת־כָּל־הָעֹלֹות וַיְּחַזְּקוּם אֲחֵיהֶם הַלְוִיִּם עַד־כְּלֹות הַמְּלָאכָה וְעַד יִתְקַדְּשׁוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים כִּי הַלְוִיִּם יִשְׁרֵי לֵבָב לְהִתְקַדֵּשׁ מֵהַכֹּהֲנִים׃
|
34. But H7535 the priests H3548 were H1961 too few H4592 , so that they could H3201 not H3808 flay H6584 H853 all H3605 the burnt offerings H5930 : wherefore their brethren H251 the Levites H3881 did help H2388 them, till H5704 the work H4399 was ended H3615 , and until H5704 the other priests H3548 had sanctified themselves H6942 : for H3588 the Levites H3881 were more upright H3477 in heart H3824 to sanctify themselves H6942 than the priests H4480 H3548 .
|
|
35. וְגַם־עֹלָה לָרֹב בְּחֶלְבֵי הַשְּׁלָמִים וּבַנְּסָכִים לָעֹלָה וַתִּכֹּון עֲבֹודַת בֵּית־יְהוָה׃
|
35. And also H1571 the burnt offerings H5930 were in abundance H7230 , with the fat H2459 of the peace offerings H8002 , and the drink offerings H5262 for every burnt offering H5930 . So the service H5656 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 was set in order H3559 .
|
|
36. וַיִּשְׂמַח יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ וְכָל־הָעָם עַל הַהֵכִין הָאֱלֹהִים לָעָם כִּי בְּפִתְאֹם הָיָה הַדָּבָר׃ פ
|
36. And Hezekiah H3169 rejoiced H8055 , and all H3605 the people H5971 , that H5921 God H430 had prepared H3559 the people H5971 : for H3588 the thing H1697 was H1961 done suddenly H6597 .
