历代志下 31
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
毁弃一切偶像(A)
31 这一切都作完了,所有在那里的以色列人就都出去,到犹大的各城,打碎神柱,砍下亚舍拉;又在犹大、便雅悯、以法莲和玛拿西各地,把邱坛和祭坛完全拆毁。然后以色列众人都各回各城,各归自己的地业去了。
献祭的条例
2 希西家指派祭司和利未人的班次,使祭司和利未人照着自己的班次,各按各职献燔祭和平安祭,又在耶和华殿门内事奉,称谢和赞美耶和华。 3 王又在自己的财物中定出一份作燔祭,就是早晚的燔祭,安息日、月朔和节期的燔祭,都是照着耶和华律法上所记的。 4 王又吩咐住在耶路撒冷的人民,要把祭司和利未人应得的一份给他们,使他们专心执行耶和华的律法。
什一奉献
5 这命令一发出,以色列人就送来很多初熟的五谷、新酒、油和蜜,以及田间各样的出产,又把各物品的十分之一,大批送来。 6 住在犹大各城的以色列人和犹大人,也把牛羊的十分之一,和分别为圣归耶和华他们的 神的圣物的十分之一,都送了来,囤积成堆。 7 从三月开始囤积,到七月才完毕。 8 希西家和众领袖来了,看见这些囤积物品,就称颂耶和华,又为耶和华的子民以色列祝福。 9 希西家向祭司和利未人询问这些囤积物品的时候, 10 撒督家的大祭司亚撒利雅回答他,说:“自从人民把供物送进耶和华殿以来,我们就可以吃饱,并且还有很多剩下来。因为耶和华赐福给他的子民,所以剩下的才这样丰盛。”
预备仓房和分配供物
11 希西家吩咐人在耶和华的殿里预备仓房,他们就预备了。 12 他们很忠心地把供物、各物品的十分之一和分别为圣之物,都搬进仓里去。利未人歌楠雅总管这些物品,他的兄弟示每作副总管。 13 耶歇、亚撒细雅、拿哈、亚撒黑、耶利末、约撒拔、以利、伊斯玛基雅、玛哈、比拿雅在歌楠雅和他的兄弟示每手下,负责监督的工作,他们都是由希西家王和神殿的总管亚撒利雅委派的。 14 看守东门的利未人音拿的儿子可利,掌管自愿献给 神的礼物,分发献与耶和华的供物和至圣之物。 15 在他手下有伊甸、珉雅珉、耶书亚、示玛雅、亚玛利雅和示迦尼雅,在祭司的各城里,按着班次,无论大小,把供物分发给他们的亲族。 16 此外,按着家谱,三十岁(“三十岁”原文作“三岁”)及以上的男子:凡是每日按着班次,照着本分进耶和华的殿供职的,也分发给他们。 17 又分发给按着家族登记在家谱上的祭司,也按着班次职责分给二十岁及以上的利未人。 18 又按照家谱的登记,分给他们的全体的小孩、妻子和儿女,因为他们忠心地自洁成圣。 19 至于住在各城郊野作祭司的亚伦的子孙,在各城里都有按名字指定的人,把应得的分分发给祭司中所有的男子,和所有登记在家谱中的利未人。
希西家行耶和华喜悦的
20 希西家在犹大全地都这样行,他在耶和华他的 神面前行良善、正直和诚实的事。 21 他经办的一切事,无论是关于神殿的事奉,或是关于律法和诫命的遵行,他都寻求他的 神。因为他尽心去行,所以尽都顺利。
2 Chronicles 31
New King James Version
The Reforms of Hezekiah(A)
31 Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and (B)broke the sacred pillars in pieces, cut down the wooden images, and threw down the [a]high places and the altars—from all Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh—until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned to their own cities, every man to his possession.
2 And Hezekiah appointed (C)the divisions of the priests and the Levites according to their divisions, each man according to his service, the priests and Levites (D)for burnt offerings and peace offerings, to serve, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the [b]camp of the Lord. 3 The king also appointed a [c]portion of his (E)possessions[d] for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths and the New Moons and the set feasts, as it is written in the (F)Law of the Lord.
4 Moreover he commanded the people who dwelt in Jerusalem to contribute (G)support[e] for the priests and the Levites, that they might devote themselves to (H)the Law of the Lord.
5 As soon as the commandment was circulated, the children of Israel brought in abundance (I)the firstfruits of grain and wine, oil and honey, and of all the produce of the field; and they brought in abundantly the (J)tithe of everything. 6 And the children of Israel and Judah, who dwelt in the cities of Judah, brought the tithe of oxen and sheep; also the (K)tithe of holy things which were consecrated to the Lord their God they laid in heaps.
7 In the third month they began laying them in heaps, and they finished in the seventh month. 8 And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed the Lord and His people Israel. 9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps. 10 And Azariah the chief priest, from the (L)house of Zadok, answered him and said, (M)“Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the Lord, we have had enough to eat and have plenty left, for the Lord has blessed His people; and what is left is this great (N)abundance.”
11 Now Hezekiah commanded them to prepare (O)rooms[f] in the house of the Lord, and they prepared them. 12 Then they faithfully brought in the offerings, the tithes, and the dedicated things; (P)Cononiah the Levite had charge of them, and Shimei his brother was the next. 13 Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismachiah, Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the hand of Cononiah and Shimei his brother, at the commandment of Hezekiah the king and Azariah the (Q)ruler of the house of God. 14 Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the keeper of the East Gate, was over the (R)freewill offerings to God, to distribute the offerings of the Lord and the most holy things. 15 And under him were (S)Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, his faithful assistants in (T)the cities of the priests, to distribute (U)allotments to their brethren by divisions, to the great as well as the small.
16 Besides those males from three years old and up who were written in the genealogy, they distributed to everyone who entered the house of the Lord his daily portion for the work of his service, by his division, 17 and to the priests who were written in the genealogy according to their father’s house, and to the Levites (V)from twenty years old and up according to their work, by their divisions, 18 and to all who were written in the genealogy—their little ones and their wives, their sons and daughters, the whole company of them—for in their faithfulness they [g]sanctified themselves in holiness.
19 Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in (W)the fields of the common-lands of their cities, in every single city, there were men who were (X)designated by name to distribute portions to all the males among the priests and to all who were listed by genealogies among the Levites.
20 Thus Hezekiah did throughout all Judah, and he (Y)did what was good and right and true before the Lord his God. 21 And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart. So he (Z)prospered.

2 Chroniques 31
Louis Segond
31 Lorsque tout cela fut terminé, tous ceux d'Israël qui étaient présents partirent pour les villes de Juda, et ils brisèrent les statues, abattirent les idoles, et renversèrent entièrement les hauts lieux et les autels dans tout Juda et Benjamin et dans Éphraïm et Manassé. Puis tous les enfants d'Israël retournèrent dans leurs villes, chacun dans sa propriété.
2 Ézéchias rétablit les classes des sacrificateurs et des Lévites d'après leurs divisions, chacun selon ses fonctions, sacrificateurs et Lévites, pour les holocaustes et les sacrifices d'actions de grâces, pour le service, pour les chants et les louanges, aux portes du camp de l'Éternel.
3 Le roi donna une portion de ses biens pour les holocaustes, pour les holocaustes du matin et du soir, et pour les holocaustes des sabbats, des nouvelles lunes et des fêtes, comme il est écrit dans la loi de l'Éternel.
4 Et il dit au peuple, aux habitants de Jérusalem, de donner la portion des sacrificateurs et des Lévites, afin qu'ils observassent fidèlement la loi de l'Éternel.
5 Lorsque la chose fut répandue, les enfants d'Israël donnèrent en abondance les prémices du blé, du moût, de l'huile, du miel, et de tous les produits des champs; ils apportèrent aussi en abondance la dîme de tout.
6 De même, les enfants d'Israël et de Juda qui demeuraient dans les villes de Juda donnèrent la dîme du gros et du menu bétail, et la dîme des choses saintes qui étaient consacrées à l'Éternel, leur Dieu, et dont on fit plusieurs tas.
7 On commença à former les tas au troisième mois, et l'on acheva au septième mois.
8 Ézéchias et les chefs vinrent voir les tas, et ils bénirent l'Éternel et son peuple d'Israël.
9 Et Ézéchias interrogea les sacrificateurs et les Lévites au sujet de ces tas.
10 Alors le souverain sacrificateur Azaria, de la maison de Tsadok, lui répondit: Depuis qu'on a commencé d'apporter les offrandes dans la maison de l'Éternel, nous avons mangé, nous nous sommes rassasiés, et nous en avons beaucoup laissé, car l'Éternel a béni son peuple; et voici la grande quantité qu'il y a de reste.
11 Ézéchias donna l'ordre de préparer des chambres dans la maison de l'Éternel; et on les prépara.
12 On y apporta fidèlement les offrandes, la dîme, et les choses saintes. Le Lévite Conania en eut l'intendance, et son frère Schimeï était en second.
13 Jehiel, Azazia, Nachath, Asaël, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Éliel, Jismakia, Machath et Benaja étaient employés sous la direction de Conania et de son frère Schimeï, d'après l'ordre du roi Ézéchias, et d'Azaria, chef de la maison de Dieu.
14 Le Lévite Koré, fils de Jimna, portier de l'orient, avait l'intendance des dons volontaires faits à Dieu, pour distribuer ce qui était présenté à l'Éternel par élévation et les choses très saintes.
15 Dans les villes sacerdotales, Éden, Minjamin, Josué, Schemaeja, Amaria et Schecania étaient placés sous sa direction pour faire fidèlement les distributions à leurs frères, grands et petits, selon leurs divisions:
16 aux mâles enregistrés depuis l'âge de trois ans et au-dessus; à tous ceux qui entraient journellement dans la maison de l'Éternel pour faire leur service selon leurs fonctions et selon leurs divisions;
17 aux sacrificateurs enregistrés d'après leurs maisons paternelles, et aux Lévites de vingt ans et au-dessus, selon leurs fonctions et selon leurs divisions;
18 à ceux de toute l'assemblée enregistrés avec tous leurs petits enfants, leurs femmes, leurs fils et leurs filles, car ils se consacraient fidèlement au service du sanctuaire.
19 Et pour les fils d'Aaron, les sacrificateurs, qui demeuraient à la campagne dans les banlieues de leurs villes, il y avait dans chaque ville des hommes désignés par leurs noms pour distribuer les portions à tous les mâles des sacrificateurs et à tous les Lévites enregistrés.
20 Voilà ce que fit Ézéchias dans tout Juda; il fit ce qui est bien, ce qui est droit, ce qui est vrai, devant l'Éternel, son Dieu.
21 Il agit de tout son coeur, et il réussit dans tout ce qu'il entreprit, en recherchant son Dieu, pour le service de la maison de Dieu, pour la loi et pour les commandements.
2 Chronicles 31
New International Version
31 When all this had ended, the Israelites who were there went out to the towns of Judah, smashed the sacred stones and cut down(A) the Asherah poles. They destroyed the high places and the altars throughout Judah and Benjamin and in Ephraim and Manasseh. After they had destroyed all of them, the Israelites returned to their own towns and to their own property.
Contributions for Worship(B)
2 Hezekiah(C) assigned the priests and Levites to divisions(D)—each of them according to their duties as priests or Levites—to offer burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, to minister,(E) to give thanks and to sing praises(F) at the gates of the Lord’s dwelling.(G) 3 The king contributed(H) from his own possessions for the morning and evening burnt offerings and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, at the New Moons and at the appointed festivals as written in the Law of the Lord.(I) 4 He ordered the people living in Jerusalem to give the portion(J) due the priests and Levites so they could devote themselves to the Law of the Lord. 5 As soon as the order went out, the Israelites generously gave the firstfruits(K) of their grain, new wine,(L) olive oil and honey and all that the fields produced. They brought a great amount, a tithe of everything. 6 The people of Israel and Judah who lived in the towns of Judah also brought a tithe(M) of their herds and flocks and a tithe of the holy things dedicated to the Lord their God, and they piled them in heaps.(N) 7 They began doing this in the third month and finished in the seventh month.(O) 8 When Hezekiah and his officials came and saw the heaps, they praised the Lord and blessed(P) his people Israel.
9 Hezekiah asked the priests and Levites about the heaps; 10 and Azariah the chief priest, from the family of Zadok,(Q) answered, “Since the people began to bring their contributions to the temple of the Lord, we have had enough to eat and plenty to spare, because the Lord has blessed his people, and this great amount is left over.”(R)
11 Hezekiah gave orders to prepare storerooms in the temple of the Lord, and this was done. 12 Then they faithfully brought in the contributions, tithes and dedicated gifts. Konaniah,(S) a Levite, was the overseer in charge of these things, and his brother Shimei was next in rank. 13 Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad,(T) Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath and Benaiah were assistants of Konaniah and Shimei his brother. All these served by appointment of King Hezekiah and Azariah the official in charge of the temple of God.
14 Kore son of Imnah the Levite, keeper of the East Gate, was in charge of the freewill offerings given to God, distributing the contributions made to the Lord and also the consecrated gifts. 15 Eden,(U) Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah and Shekaniah assisted him faithfully in the towns(V) of the priests, distributing to their fellow priests according to their divisions, old and young alike.
16 In addition, they distributed to the males three years old or more whose names were in the genealogical records(W)—all who would enter the temple of the Lord to perform the daily duties of their various tasks, according to their responsibilities and their divisions. 17 And they distributed to the priests enrolled by their families in the genealogical records and likewise to the Levites twenty years old or more, according to their responsibilities and their divisions. 18 They included all the little ones, the wives, and the sons and daughters of the whole community listed in these genealogical records. For they were faithful in consecrating themselves.
19 As for the priests, the descendants of Aaron, who lived on the farmlands around their towns or in any other towns,(X) men were designated by name to distribute portions to every male among them and to all who were recorded in the genealogies of the Levites.
20 This is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah, doing what was good and right and faithful(Y) before the Lord his God. 21 In everything that he undertook in the service of God’s temple and in obedience to the law and the commands, he sought his God and worked wholeheartedly. And so he prospered.(Z)
