历代志下 23
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶何耶大等人立约辅助王子(A)
23 到了第七年，耶何耶大奋勇图强，召来耶罗罕的儿子亚撒利雅、约哈难的儿子以实玛利、俄备得的儿子亚撒利雅、亚大雅的儿子玛西雅和细基利的儿子以利沙法等几位百夫长，和他们立约。 2 他们就走遍犹大，从犹大各城召集利未人和以色列各家族的首领；他们就来到耶路撒冷。 3 全体会众在 神的殿里与王立约。耶何耶大对他们说：“王的儿子应当按照耶和华应许大卫的子孙的话作王。 4 你们要这样行：你们中间每逢安息日来值班的祭司和利未人，三分之一要把守各门； 5 三分之一要在王宫，三分之一要在基址门；全体人民都要在耶和华殿的院子里。 6 除了祭司和供职的利未人以外，任何人不得进入耶和华的殿，只有他们可以进去，因为他们是分别为圣的；全体人民都要遵守耶和华的吩咐。 7 利未人要在周围环绕君王，各人手里拿着武器；擅自进殿的，都必被处死；王出入的时候，你们都要随着他。” 8 利未人和犹大众人都照着耶何耶大祭司吩咐的一切去行；他们各人带着在安息日值班或在安息日下班的人来，因为耶何耶大祭司不准他们下班。 9 于是耶何耶大祭司把 神的殿里，原本属于大卫王的矛枪、大盾和小盾，交给了众百夫长； 10 他又分派众民，手中各拿兵器，守在祭坛和殿的四周，从殿的右面到殿的左面，环绕着王。 11 于是他们把王子领出来，给他戴上王冠，又把约书交给他，立他为王；耶何耶大和他的众子用膏膏他，并且说：“愿王万岁！”
亚他利雅被杀(B)
12 亚他利雅听见人民奔跑和赞美王的声音，就进了耶和华的殿，到众民那里去。 13 她一观看，见王站在殿门口的柱旁，众官长和吹号的人在王的周围；国民都欢乐吹号，又有歌唱的人用各种乐器领导众人歌颂。于是亚他利雅撕裂衣服，说：“反了！反了！” 14 耶何耶大祭司把管辖军队的众百夫长叫出来，对他们说：“把她从各班次中间赶出去；跟随她的人，都要用刀杀死。”因为祭司说：“不可在耶和华的殿内杀死她。” 15 她走到王宫的马门入口的时候，众兵就把她拿住，在那里把她杀死了。
耶何耶大的改革(C)
16 耶何耶大与众民和王立约，要他们作耶和华的子民。 17 于是众民都去到巴力庙，把庙拆毁，打碎祭坛和偶像，又在祭坛前杀了巴力的祭司玛坦。 18 耶何耶大把看守耶和华殿的责任，交在利未支派的祭司手里；这些利未支派的祭司是大卫分派在耶和华的殿中，照着摩西的律法所记的，给耶和华献燔祭，又照着大卫所定的，欢乐歌唱。 19 他又设立守门的看守耶和华殿的各门，无论为了甚么事，不洁净的人，都不能进去。 20 他率领百夫长、贵族、民间的官长和国民，又把王从耶和华的殿领下来，从“上门”进入王宫，拥立王坐在王位上。 21 于是全国的人民都欢乐，全城也都宁静；因为他们把亚他利雅用刀杀了。

亞他利雅被殺(B)
12 亞他利雅聽見人民奔跑和讚美王的聲音，就進了耶和華的殿，到眾民那裡去。 13 她一觀看，見王站在殿門口的柱旁，眾官長和吹號的人在王的周圍；國民都歡樂吹號，又有歌唱的人用各種樂器領導眾人歌頌。於是亞他利雅撕裂衣服，說：“反了！反了！” 14 耶何耶大祭司把管轄軍隊的眾百夫長叫出來，對他們說：“把她從各班次中間趕出去；跟隨她的人，都要用刀殺死。”因為祭司說：“不可在耶和華的殿內殺死她。” 15 她走到王宮的馬門入口的時候，眾兵就把她拿住，在那裡把她殺死了。
耶何耶大的改革(C)
16 耶何耶大與眾民和王立約，要他們作耶和華的子民。 17 於是眾民都去到巴力廟，把廟拆毀，打碎祭壇和偶像，又在祭壇前殺了巴力的祭司瑪坦。 18 耶何耶大把看守耶和華殿的責任，交在利未支派的祭司手裡；這些利未支派的祭司是大衛分派在耶和華的殿中，照著摩西的律法所記的，給耶和華獻燔祭，又照著大衛所定的，歡樂歌唱。 19 他又設立守門的看守耶和華殿的各門，無論為了甚麼事，不潔淨的人，都不能進去。 20 他率領百夫長、貴族、民間的官長和國民，又把王從耶和華的殿領下來，從“上門”進入王宮，擁立王坐在王位上。 21 於是全國的人民都歡樂，全城也都寧靜；因為他們把亞他利雅用刀殺了。
2 Chronicles 23
International Children’s Bible
23 In the seventh year Jehoiada decided to do something. He made an agreement with the commanders of the groups of 100 men. These were the commanders: Azariah son of Jeroham, Ishmael son of Jehohanan, Azariah son of Obed, Maaseiah son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat son of Zicri. 2 They went around in Judah and gathered the Levites from all the towns. They also gathered the leaders of the families of Israel. Then they went to Jerusalem. 3 All the people together made an agreement with the king in the Temple of God.
Jehoiada said to them, “The king’s son will rule. That is what the Lord promised about David’s descendants. 4 Now this is what you must do: You priests and Levites go on duty on the Sabbath. A third of you will guard the doors. 5 A third of you will be at the king’s palace. And a third of you will be at the Foundation Gate. All the other people will stay in the courtyards of the Temple of the Lord. 6 Don’t let anyone come into the Temple of the Lord. Only the priests and Levites who serve may come in. They may come because they have been made ready to serve the Lord. But all the other men must do the job the Lord has given them. 7 The Levites must stay near the king. Every man must have his sword with him. If anyone tries to enter the Temple, kill him. You must stay with the king everywhere he goes.”
8 The Levites and all the people of Judah obeyed everything Jehoiada the priest had commanded. He did not excuse anyone from the groups of the priests. So each commander took the men who came on duty on the Sabbath with those who went off duty on the Sabbath. 9 Jehoiada gave the commanders of the groups of 100 men the spears and the large and small shields. They had belonged to King David. They were kept in the Temple of God. 10 Then Jehoiada told the men where to stand. Every man had his weapon in his hand. They stood around the king, near the altar and the Temple. They stood from the south side of the Temple to the north side.
11 Jehoiada and his sons brought out the king’s son. And they put the crown on him. They gave him a copy of the law. Then they appointed him king and poured olive oil on him. Then they shouted, “Long live the king!”
12 Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king. So she went to them at the Temple of the Lord. 13 She looked and saw the king standing by his pillar at the entrance. The officers and the men who blew trumpets were near him. All the people of the land were happy and blowing trumpets. The singers were playing musical instruments and leading praises. Then Athaliah tore her clothes to show how upset she was. She shouted, “Traitors! Traitors!”
14 Jehoiada the priest sent out the commanders of 100 men who led the army. He said to them, “Surround her with soldiers and take her out of the Temple area. Kill with a sword anyone who follows her.” He had said, “Don’t put Athaliah to death in the Temple of the Lord.” 15 So they caught her when she came to the entrance of the Horse Gate near the palace. And they put her to death there.
16 Then Jehoiada made an agreement with the people and the king. They agreed that they would be the Lord’s special people. 17 All the people went to the temple of Baal and tore it down. They smashed the altars and idols there. And they killed Mattan the priest of Baal in front of the altars.
18 Then Jehoiada chose the priests to be responsible for the Temple of the Lord. These priests were Levites. David had given them duties in the Temple of the Lord. They were to offer the burnt offerings to the Lord as the Teachings of Moses commanded. They offered the sacrifices with much joy and singing as David had commanded. 19 Jehoiada put guards at the gates of the Temple of the Lord. Then anyone who was unclean in any way could not enter the Temple.
20 Jehoiada took with him the commanders of 100 men, the important men, the rulers of the people and all the people of the land. They brought the king down from the Temple of the Lord. They went through the Upper Gate into the palace. Then they seated the king on the throne. 21 All the people of Judah were very happy. And Jerusalem had peace because Athaliah had been put to death with the sword.
