2nd Chronicles 第 30 章 - King James Strong Number Version

1

And Hezekiah <H3169> sent <H7971> to all Israel <H3478> and Judah, <H3063> and wrote <H3789> letters <H0107> also to Ephraim <H0669> and Manasseh, <H4519> that they should come <H0935> to the house <H1004> of the LORD <H3068> at Jerusalem, <H3389> to keep <H6213> the passover <H6453> unto the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Israel. <H3478>

2

For the king <H4428> had taken counsel, <H3289> and his princes, <H8269> and all the congregation <H6951> in Jerusalem, <H3389> to keep <H6213> the passover <H6453> in the second <H8145> month. <H2320>

3

For they could <H3201> not keep <H6213> it at that time, <H6256> because the priests <H3548> had not sanctified <H6942> themselves sufficiently, <H4078> <H1767> neither had the people <H5971> gathered <H0622> themselves together to Jerusalem. <H3389>

4

And the thing <H1697> pleased <H3474> <H5869> the king <H4428> and <H5869> all the congregation. <H6951>

5

So they established <H5975> a decree <H1697> to make proclamation <H5674> <H6963> throughout all Israel, <H3478> from Beersheba <H0884> even to Dan, <H1835> that they should come <H0935> to keep <H6213> the passover <H6453> unto the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Israel <H3478> at Jerusalem: <H3389> for they had not done <H6213> [it] of a long <H7230> [time in such sort] as it was written. <H3789>

6

So the posts <H7323> went <H3212> with the letters <H0107> from <H3027> the king <H4428> and his princes <H8269> throughout all Israel <H3478> and Judah, <H3063> and according to the commandment <H4687> of the king, <H4428> saying, <H0559> Ye children <H1121> of Israel, <H3478> turn again <H7725> unto the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of Abraham, <H0085> Isaac, <H3327> and Israel, <H3478> and he will return <H7725> to the remnant <H7604> of you, that are escaped <H6413> out of the hand <H3709> of the kings <H4428> of Assyria. <H0804>

7

And be not ye like your fathers, <H0001> and like your brethren, <H0251> which trespassed <H4603> against the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of their fathers, <H0001> [who] therefore gave them up <H5414> to desolation, <H8047> as ye see. <H7200>

8

Now be ye not stiffnecked, <H7185> <H6203> as your fathers <H0001> [were, but] yield <H5414> yourselves <H3027> unto the LORD, <H3068> and enter <H0935> into his sanctuary, <H4720> which he hath sanctified <H6942> for ever: <H5769> and serve <H5647> the LORD <H3068> your God, <H0430> that the fierceness <H2740> of his wrath <H0639> may turn away <H7725> from you.

9

For if ye turn again <H7725> unto the LORD, <H3068> your brethren <H0251> and your children <H1121> [shall find] compassion <H7356> before <H6440> them that lead them captive, <H7617> so that they shall come again <H7725> into this land: <H0776> for the LORD <H3068> your God <H0430> [is] gracious <H2587> and merciful, <H7349> and will not turn away <H5493> [his] face <H6440> from you, if ye return <H7725> unto him.

10

So the posts <H7323> passed <H5674> from city <H5892> to city <H5892> through the country <H0776> of Ephraim <H0669> and Manasseh <H4519> even unto Zebulun: <H2074> but they laughed them to scorn, <H7832> and mocked <H3932> them.

11

Nevertheless divers <H0582> of Asher <H0836> and Manasseh <H4519> and of Zebulun <H2074> humbled <H3665> themselves, and came <H0935> to Jerusalem. <H3389>

12

Also in Judah <H3063> the hand <H3027> of God <H0430> was to give <H5414> them one <H0259> heart <H3820> to do <H6213> the commandment <H4687> of the king <H4428> and of the princes, <H8269> by the word <H1697> of the LORD. <H3068>

13

And there assembled <H0622> at Jerusalem <H3389> much <H7227> people <H5971> to keep <H6213> the feast <H2282> of unleavened bread <H4682> in the second <H8145> month, <H2320> a very <H3966> great <H7230> congregation. <H6951>

14

And they arose <H6965> and took away <H5493> the altars <H4196> that [were] in Jerusalem, <H3389> and all the altars for incense <H6999> took they away, <H5493> and cast <H7993> [them] into the brook <H5158> Kidron. <H6939>

15

Then they killed <H7819> the passover <H6453> on the fourteenth <H0702> <H6240> [day] of the second <H8145> month: <H2320> and the priests <H3548> and the Levites <H3881> were ashamed, <H3637> and sanctified <H6942> themselves, and brought in <H0935> the burnt offerings <H5930> into the house <H1004> of the LORD. <H3068>

16

And they stood <H5975> in their place <H5977> after their manner, <H4941> according to the law <H8451> of Moses <H4872> the man <H0376> of God: <H0430> the priests <H3548> sprinkled <H2236> the blood, <H1818> [which they received] of the hand <H3027> of the Levites. <H3881>

17

For [there were] many <H7227> in the congregation <H6951> that were not sanctified: <H6942> therefore the Levites <H3881> had the charge of the killing <H7821> of the passovers <H6453> for every one [that was] not clean, <H2889> to sanctify <H6942> [them] unto the LORD. <H3068>

18

For a multitude <H4768> of the people, <H5971> [even] many <H7227> of Ephraim, <H0669> and Manasseh, <H4519> Issachar, <H3485> and Zebulun, <H2074> had not <H3808> cleansed <H2891> themselves, yet did they eat <H0398> the passover <H6453> otherwise <H3808> than it was written. <H3789> But Hezekiah <H3169> prayed <H6419> for them, saying, <H0559> The good <H2896> LORD <H3068> pardon <H3722> every one

19

[That] prepareth <H3559> his heart <H3824> to seek <H1875> God, <H0430> the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of his fathers, <H0001> though [he be] not [cleansed] according to the purification <H2893> of the sanctuary. <H6944>

20

And the LORD <H3068> hearkened <H8085> to Hezekiah, <H3169> and healed <H7495> the people. <H5971>

21

And the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> that were present <H4672> at Jerusalem <H3389> kept <H6213> the feast <H2282> of unleavened bread <H4682> seven <H7651> days <H3117> with great <H1419> gladness: <H8057> and the Levites <H3881> and the priests <H3548> praised <H1984> the LORD <H3068> day <H3117> by day, <H3117> [singing] with loud <H5797> instruments <H3627> unto the LORD. <H3068>

22

And Hezekiah <H3169> spake <H1696> comfortably <H3820> unto all the Levites <H3881> that taught <H7919> the good <H2896> knowledge <H7922> of the LORD: <H3068> and they did eat <H0398> throughout the feast <H4150> seven <H7651> days, <H3117> offering <H2076> peace <H8002> offerings, <H2077> and making confession <H3034> to the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of their fathers. <H0001>

23

And the whole assembly <H6951> took counsel <H3289> to keep <H6213> other <H0312> seven <H7651> days: <H3117> and they kept <H6213> [other] seven <H7651> days <H3117> with gladness. <H8057>

24

For Hezekiah <H2396> king <H4428> of Judah <H3063> did give <H7311> to the congregation <H6951> a thousand <H0505> bullocks <H6499> and seven <H7651> thousand <H0505> sheep; <H6629> and the princes <H8269> gave <H7311> to the congregation <H6951> a thousand <H0505> bullocks <H6499> and ten <H6235> thousand <H0505> sheep: <H6629> and a great number <H7230> of priests <H3548> sanctified <H6942> themselves.

25

And all the congregation <H6951> of Judah, <H3063> with the priests <H3548> and the Levites, <H3881> and all the congregation <H6951> that came <H0935> out of Israel, <H3478> and the strangers <H1616> that came <H0935> out of the land <H0776> of Israel, <H3478> and that dwelt <H3427> in Judah, <H3063> rejoiced. <H8055>

26

So there was great <H1419> joy <H8057> in Jerusalem: <H3389> for since the time <H3117> of Solomon <H8010> the son <H1121> of David <H1732> king <H4428> of Israel <H3478> [there was] not the like in Jerusalem. <H3389>

27

Then the priests <H3548> the Levites <H3881> arose <H6965> and blessed <H1288> the people: <H5971> and their voice <H6963> was heard, <H8085> and their prayer <H8605> came <H0935> [up] to his holy <H6944> dwelling place, <H4583> [even] unto heaven. <H8064>
