Liber II Paralipomenon

Igitur Ezechias regnare cœpit, cum viginti quinque esset annorum, et viginti novem annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Abia filia Zachariæ.

Now Ezechias began to reign, when he was five and twenty years old, and he reigned nine and twenty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Abia, the daughter of Zacharias.

Ergo Ezechiase regna incipe, cum viginti quinque es de annos, et viginti noveme anno regna in Ierusalem: nomine de matre de illo Abia filia de Zachariase.

Fecitque quod erat placitum in conspectu Domini, juxta omnia quæ fecerat David pater ejus.

And he did that which was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, according to all that David his father had done.

Et fac quod es place in conspectu de Domino, juxta omni Davide patre de illo fac que.

Ipse, anno et mense primo regni sui, aperuit valvas domus Domini, et instauravit eas.

In the first year and month of his reign he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.

Ipso, anno et mense primo de regno suo, aperi valvas de domo de Domino, et instaura illas.

Adduxitque sacerdotes atque Levitas, et congregavit eos in plateam orientalem.

And he brought the priests and the Levites, and assembled them in the east street.

Et sacerdotes et Levites adduce, et congrega illos in platea orientali.

Dixitque ad eos: Audite me, Levitæ, et sanctificamini: mundate domum Domini Dei patrum vestrorum, et auferte omnem immunditiam de sanctuario.

And he said to them: Hear me, ye Levites, and be sanctified, purify the house of the Lord the God of your fathers, and take away all filth out of the sanctuary.

Et dic ad illos: audi me, Levitas, et sanctifica: munda domo de Domino de Deo de patres vestro, et aufer omni immunditia de sanctuario.

Peccaverunt patres nostri, et fecerunt malum in conspectu Domini Dei nostri, derelinquentes eum: averterunt facies suas a tabernaculo Domini, et præbuerunt dorsum.

Our fathers have sinned and done evil in the sight of the Lord God, forsaking him: they have turned away their faces from the tabernacle of the Lord, and turned their backs.

Patres nostro pecca, et fac malo in conspectu de Domino de Deo nostro, derelinque illo: averte facies suo ab tabernaculo de Domino, et praebe dorso.

Clauserunt ostia quæ erant in porticu, et extinxerunt lucernas, incensumque non adoleverunt, et holocausta non obtulerunt in sanctuario Deo Israël.

They have shut up the doors that were in the porch, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, nor offered holocausts in the sanctuary of the God of Israel.

Claude ostios que es in porticu, et extinga lucernas, et incenso non adolesce, et holocaustas non offer in sanctuario Deo Israële.

Concitatus est itaque furor Domini super Judam et Jerusalem, tradiditque eos in commotionem, et in interitum, et in sibilum, sicut ipsi cernitis oculis vestris.

Therefore the wrath of the Lord hath been stirred up against Juda and Jerusalem, and he hath delivered them to trouble, and to destruction, and to be hissed at, as you see with your eyes.

Concita es itaque furore de Domino super Iudase et Ierusalem, et trade illos in commotione, et in interitu, et in sibilo, sicut ipso cerne oculos vestro.

En corruerunt patres nostri gladiis: filii nostri, et filiæ nostræ, et conjuges captivæ ductæ sunt propter hoc scelus.

Behold, our fathers are fallen by the sword, our sons, and our daughters, and wives are led away captives for this wickedness.

En corrue patres nostro gladios: filios nostro, et filias nostro, et coniunces captiva duc es propter hoc scelere.

Nunc ergo placet mihi ut ineamus fœdus cum Domino Deo Israël, et avertet a nobis furorem iræ suæ.

Now therefore I have a mind that we make a covenant with the Lord the God of Israel, and he will turn away the wrath of his indignation from us.

Nunc ergo place ad me ut intra foedere cum Domino Deo Israële, et averte ab nos furore de ira suo.

Filii mei, nolite negligere: vos elegit Dominus ut stetis coram eo, et ministretis illi, colatisque eum, et cremetis ei incensum.

My sons, be not negligent: the Lord hath chosen you to stand before him, and to minister to him, and to worship him, and to burn incense to him.

Filios meo, ne vol neglige: Domino elige vos ut sta coram eo, et ministra ad illo, et cole illo, et crema ad illo incenso.

Surrexerunt ergo Levitæ: Mahath filius Amasai, et Joël filius Azariæ de filiis Caath: porro de filiis Merari, Cis filius Abdi, et Azarias filius Jalaleel. De filiis autem Gersom, Joah filius Zemma, et Eden filius Joah.

Then the Levites arose, Mahath the son of Amasai, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Cis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Jalaleel. And of the sons of Gerson, Joah the son of Zemma, and Eden the son of Joah.

Surge ergo Levitas: mahath filio Amasao, et Ioële filio de Azaria de filios Caath: porro de filios Meraro, Ce filio Abdi, et Azariase filio Ialaleele. De filios autem Gerso, Ioah filio Zemma, et Edene filio Ioah.

At vero de filiis Elisaphan, Samri, et Jahiel. De filiis quoque Asaph, Zacharias, et Mathanias:

And of the sons of Elisaphan, Samri, and Jahiel. Also of the sons of Asaph, Zacharias, and Mathanias.

Sed vero de filios Elisaphane, Samrio, et Iahiele. De filios etiam Asaph, Zachariase, et Mathaniase:

necnon de filiis Heman, Jahiel, et Semei: sed et de filiis Idithun, Semeias, et Oziel.

And of the sons of Heman, Jahiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun, Semeias, and Oziel.

Necnon de filios Hemane, Iahiele, et Semei: sed et de filios Idithune, Semeiases, et Oziele.

Congregaveruntque fratres suos, et sanctificati sunt, et ingressi sunt juxta mandatum regis et imperium Domini, ut expiarent domum Dei.

And they gathered together their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and went in according to the commandment of the king, and the precept of the Lord, to purify the house of God.

Et congrega fratres suo, et sanctifica es, et ingredior es juxta mandato de rege et imperio de Domino, ut expia domo de Deo.

Sacerdotes quoque ingressi templum Domini ut sanctificarent illud, extulerunt omnem immunditiam quam intro repererant in vestibulo domus Domini: quam tulerunt Levitæ, et asportaverunt ad torrentem Cedron foras.

And the priests went into the temple of the Lord to sanctify it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found within to the entrance of the house of the Lord, and the Levites took it away, and carried it out abroad to the torrent Cedron.

Sacerdotes etiam ingredior templo de Domino ut sanctifica illo, effera omni immunditia quam intra reperi in vestibulo de domo de Domino: Levitas fer quam, et asporta ad torrente Cedrone foras.

Cœperunt autem prima die mensis primi mundare, et in die octavo ejusdem mensis ingressi sunt porticum templi Domini, expiaveruntque templum diebus octo, et in die sextadecima mensis ejusdem, quod cœperant, impleverunt.

And they began to cleanse on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the same month they came into the porch of the temple of the Lord, and they purified the temple in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the same month they finished what they had begun.

Incipe autem primo die de mense de primo munda, et in die octavo de idem de mense ingredior es porticu de templo de Domino, et expia templo dies octo, et in die sextadecima de mense de idem, quod incipe, imple.

Ingressi quoque sunt ad Ezechiam regem, et dixerunt ei: Sanctificavimus omnem domum Domini, et altare holocausti, vasaque ejus, necnon et mensam propositionis cum omnibus vasis suis,

And they went in to king Ezechias, and said to him: We have sanctified all the house of the Lord, and the altar of holocaust, and the vessels thereof, and the table of proposition with all its vessels,

Ingredior etiam es ad Ezechiase rege, et dic ad illo: sanctifica omni domo de Domino, et altari de holocausto, et vases de illo, de necnon et mensa de propositione cum omni vases suo,

cunctamque templi supellectilem, quam polluerat rex Achaz in regno suo, postquam prævaricatus est: et ecce exposita sunt omnia coram altare Domini.

And all the furniture of the temple, which king Achaz in his reign had defiled, after his transgression; and behold they are all set forth before the altar of the Lord.

Et cunga de templo supellectili, rege pollue quam Achaz in regno suo, postquam praevaricor es: et ecce expone es omni coram altari de Domino.

Consurgensque diluculo Ezechias rex, adunavit omnes principes civitatis, et ascendit in domum Domini:

And king Ezechias rising early, assembled all the rulers of the city, and went up into the house of the Lord:

Et consurgente diluculo Ezechiase rege, aduna omni principes de civitate, et ascende in domo de Domino:

obtuleruntque simul tauros septem, et arietes septem, agnos septem, et hircos septem pro peccato, pro regno, pro sanctuario, pro Juda: dixitque sacerdotibus filiis Aaron, ut offerrent super altare Domini.

And they offered together seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats for sin, for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, for Juda: and he spoke to the priests the sons of Aaron, to offer them upon the altar of the Lord.

Et offer simul tauros septeme, et arietes septeme, agnos septeme, et hircos septeme pro peccato, pro regno, pro sanctuario, pro Iuda: et dic ad sacerdotes ad filios Aarone, ut offer super altari de Domino.

Mactaverunt igitur tauros, et susceperunt sanguinem sacerdotes, et fuderunt illum super altare: mactaverunt etiam arietes, et illorum sanguinem super altare fuderunt, immolaveruntque agnos, et fuderunt super altare sanguinem.

Therefore they killed the bullocks, and the priests took the blood, and poured it upon the altar; they killed also the rams, and their blood they poured also upon the altar, and they killed the lambs, and poured the blood upon the altar.

Macta ergo tauros, et sacerdotes suscipe sanguine, et funde illo super altari: macta etiam arietes, et de illos sanguine super altari funde, et immola agnos, et funde super altari sanguine.

Applicuerunt hircos pro peccato coram rege, et universa multitudine, imposueruntque manus suas super eos:

And they brought the he goats for sin before the king, and the whole multitude, and they laid their hand upon them:

Hircos applica pro peccato coram rege, et universa multitudine, et impone manus suo super illos:

et immolaverunt illos sacerdotes, et asperserunt sanguinem eorum coram altare pro piaculo universi Israëlis: pro omni quippe Israël præceperat rex ut holocaustum fieret, et pro peccato.

And the priests immolated them, and sprinkled their blood before the altar for an expiation of all Israel: for the king had commanded that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made for all Israel.

Et sacerdotes immola illos, et asperge sanguine de illos coram altari pro piaculo universa de Israëlo: pro omni quippe Israële rege praecipie ut holocausto fi, et pro peccato.

Constituit quoque Levitas in domo Domini cum cymbalis, et psalteriis, et citharis secundum dispositionem David regis, et Gad videntis, et Nathan prophetæ: siquidem Domini præceptum fuit per manum prophetarum ejus.

And he set the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps according to the regulation of David the king, and of Gad the seer, and of Nathan the prophet: for it was the commandment of the Lord by the hand of his prophets.

Constitue etiam Levites in domo de Domino cum cymbale, et psalterios, et citharas secundo dispositione Davide de rege, et Gado vide, et Nathane prophetas: siquidem de Domino praecipie es per manu de prophetas de illo.

Steteruntque Levitæ tenentes organa David, et sacerdotes tubas.

And the Levites stood, with the instruments of David, and the priests with trumpets.

Et Levitas sta tene orgos Davide, et sacerdotes tubas.

Et jussit Ezechias ut offerrent holocausta super altare: cumque offerrentur holocausta, cœperunt laudes canere Domino, et clangere tubis, atque in diversis organis quæ David rex Israël præparaverat, concrepare.

And Ezechias commanded that they should offer holocausts upon the altar: and when the holocausts were offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound with trumpets, and divers instruments which David the king of Israel had prepared.

Et Ezechiase iube ut offer holocausta super altari: cumque holocaustas offer, incipe laudes cane ad Domino, et clange tubos, et in diverso organo Davide rege Israële praepara que, concrepa.

Omni autem turba adorante, cantores, et ii qui tenebant tubas, erant in officio suo donec compleretur holocaustum.

And all the multitude adored, and the singers, and the trumpeters, were in their office till the holocaust was finished.

Omni autem turba adora, cantores, et illo qui tene tubas, es in officio suo usque que holocausto comple.

Cumque finita esset oblatio, incurvatus est rex, et omnes qui erant cum eo, et adoraverunt.

And when the oblation was ended, the king, and all that were with him bowed down and adored.

Cumque finie es oblatione, incurva es rege, et omni qui es cum eo, et adora.

Præcepitque Ezechias et principes Levitis, ut laudarent Dominum sermonibus David, et Asaph videntis: qui laudaverunt eum magna lætitia, et incurvato genu adoraverunt.

And Ezechias and the princes commanded the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, and Asaph the seer: and they praised him with great joy, and bowing the knee adored.

Et Ezechiase et principes ad Levitis praecipie, ut lauda Domino sermones Davide, et Asaph vide: qui lauda illo magna laetitia, et incurva genu adora.

Ezechias autem etiam hæc addidit: Implestis manus vestras Domino: accedite, et offerte victimas et laudes in domo Domini. Obtulit ergo universa multitudo hostias, et laudes, et holocausta, mente devota.

And Ezechias added, and said: You have filled your hands to the Lord, come and offer victims, and praises in the house of the Lord. And all the multitude offered victims, and praises, and holocausts with a devout mind.

Ezechiase autem etiam adde hoc: imple manus vestro ad Domino: accede, et offer victimas et laudes in domo de Domino. Offer ergo universa multitudine hostias, et laudes, et holocausta, mente devota.

Porro numerus holocaustorum quæ obtulit multitudo, hic fuit: tauros septuaginta, arietes centum, agnos ducentos.

And the number of the holocausts which the multitude offered, was seventy bullocks, a hundred rams, and two hundred lambs.

Porro numero de holocaustos multitudine offer que, hoc es: tauros septuaginta, arietes cento, agnos ducenti.

Sanctificaveruntque Domino boves sexcentos, et oves tria millia.

And they consecrated to the Lord six hundred oxen, and three thousand sheep.

Et sanctifica ad Domino boves sexcenti, et oves tre mile.

Sacerdotes vero pauci erant, nec poterant sufficere ut pelles holocaustorum detraherent: unde et Levitæ fratres eorum adjuverunt eos, donec impleretur opus, et sanctificarentur antistites: Levitæ quippe faciliori ritu sanctificantur quam sacerdotes.

But the priests were few, and were not enough to flay the holocausts: wherefore the Levites their brethren helped them, till the work was ended, and priests were sanctified, for the Levites are sanctified with an easier rite than the priests.

Sacerdotes vero pauco es, nec pote suffice ut pelles de holocaustos detrahe: unde et Levitas fratres de illos adiuva illos, usque que opere imple, et sanctifica antistites: levitas quippe faciliori ritu sanctifica quam sacerdotes.

Fuerunt ergo holocausta plurima, adipes pacificorum, et libamina holocaustorum: et completus est cultus domus Domini.

So there were many holocausts, and the fat of peace offerings, and the libations of holocausts: and the service of the house of the Lord was completed.

Es ergo holocaustas multo, adipes de pacificas, et libamines de holocaustos: et comple es cultu domo de Domino.

Lætatusque est Ezechias et omnis populus, eo quod ministerium Domini esset expletum: de repente quippe hoc fieri placuerat.

And Ezechias, and all the people rejoiced because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For the resolution of doing this thing was taken suddenly.

Et laetato es Ezechiase et omni populo, eo quod ministerio de Domino es exple: de repente quippe hoc fieri place.
