2 Mga Hari 22

1Si Josias ay may walong taon nang magpasimulang maghari; at siya'y nagharing tatlongpu't isang taon sa Jerusalem: at ang pangalan ng kaniyang ina ay Idida na anak ni Adaia na taga Boscat. 2At siya'y gumawa ng matuwid sa harap ng mga mata ng Panginoon, at lumakad sa buong lakad ni David na kaniyang magulang, at hindi lumiko sa kanan o sa kaliwa. 3At nangyari, nang ikalabing walong taon ng haring Josias, na sinugo ng hari si Saphan na anak ni Azalia, na anak ni Mesullam, na kalihim, sa bahay ng Panginoon, na sinasabi, 4Ahunin mo si Hilcias na dakilang saserdote, upang kaniyang bilangin ang salapi na ipinasok sa bahay ng Panginoon, na tinipon sa bayan ng tagatanod-pinto: 5At ibinigay sa kamay ng mga manggagawa na siyang tumitingin ng gawain sa bahay ng Panginoon; at ibigay sa mga manggagawa na nangasa bahay ng Panginoon, upang husayin ang mga sira ng bahay. 6Sa mga anluwagi, at sa mga manggagawa, at sa mga kantero at sa pagbili ng kahoy, at ng batong tabas upang husayin ang bahay. 7Gayon ma'y walang pagtutuos na ginawa sila sa kanila sa salapi na nabigay sa kanilang kamay; sapagka't kanilang ginawang may pagtatapat. 8At si Hilcias na dakilang saserdote ay nagsabi kay Saphan na kalihim, Aking nasumpungan ang aklat ng kautusan sa bahay ng Panginoon. At ibinigay ni Hilcias ang aklat kay Saphan, at kaniyang binasa. 9At si Saphan na kalihim ay naparoon sa hari, at nagbalik ng salita sa hari, at nagsabi, Inilabas ng iyong mga lingkod ang salapi na nasumpungan sa bahay, at ibinigay sa kamay ng mga manggagawa na siyang tumitingin ng gawain sa bahay ng Panginoon. 10At isinaysay ni Saphan na kalihim, sa hari na sinasabi, Si Hilcias na saserdote ay nagbigay sa akin ng isang aklat. 11At binasa ni Saphan sa harap ng hari. At nangyari, nang marinig ng hari ang mga salita ng aklat ng kautusan, na kaniyang hinapak ang kaniyang suot. 12At ang hari ay nagutos kay Hilcias na saserdote, at kay Ahicam na anak ni Saphan, at kay Achbor na anak ni Michaia, at kay Saphan na kalihim, at kay Asaia na lingkod ng hari, na sinasabi, 13Kayo'y magsiyaon, isangguni ninyo sa Panginoon ako, at ang bayan, at ang buong Juda, tungkol sa mga salita ng aklat na ito na nasumpungan: sapagka't malaki ang pagiinit ng Panginoon na nabugso sa atin, sapagka't hindi dininig ng ating mga magulang ang mga salita ng aklat na ito, na gawin ang ayon sa lahat na nasusulat tungkol sa atin. 14Sa gayo'y si Hilcias na saserdote, at si Ahicam, at si Achbor, at si Saphan, at si Asaia, ay nagsiparoon kay Hulda na propetisa, na asawa ni Sallum na anak ni Ticva na anak ni Araas, na katiwala sa mga kasuutan (siya nga'y tumatahan sa Jerusalem sa ikalawang bahagi;) at sila'y nakipagsanggunian sa kaniya. 15At sinabi niya sa kanila, Ganito, ang sabi ng Panginoon, ng Dios ng Israel: Saysayin ninyo sa lalake na nagsugo sa inyo sa akin, 16Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, Narito, ako'y magdadala ng kasamaan sa dakong ito, at sa mga tagarito, sa makatuwid baga'y lahat na salita ng aklat na nabasa ng hari sa Juda: 17Sapagka't kanilang pinabayaan ako, at nagsunog ng kamangyan sa ibang mga dios, upang ipamungkahi nila ako sa galit sa lahat na gawa ng kanilang mga kamay, kaya't ang aking pagiinit ay magaalab sa dakong ito, at hindi mapapatay. 18Nguni't sa hari sa Juda, na nagsugo sa inyo upang magusisa sa Panginoon, ganito ang sasabihin ninyo sa kaniya, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, ng Dios ng Israel. Tungkol sa mga salita na inyong narinig. 19Sapagka't ang iyong puso ay malumanay, at ikaw ay nagpakababa sa harap ng Panginoon, nang iyong marinig ang aking sinalita laban sa dakong ito, at laban sa mga tagarito na sila'y magiging kagibaan, at sumpa, at hinapak mo ang iyong kasuutan, at umiyak sa harap ko: ay dininig naman kita, sabi ng Panginoon. 20Kaya't narito, ipipisan kita sa iyong mga magulang, at ikaw ay malalagay sa iyong libingan na payapa, at hindi makikita ng iyong mga mata ang lahat ng kasamaan na aking dadalhin sa dakong ito. At sila'y nagbalik ng salita sa hari.

1Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign; and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath. 2He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, and walked in all the way of David his father, and didn’t turn aside to the right hand or to the left. 3In the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to Yahweh’s house, saying, 4“Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the money which is brought into Yahweh’s house, which the keepers of the threshold have gathered of the people. 5Let them deliver it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of Yahweh’s house; and let them give it to the workmen who are in Yahweh’s house, to repair the breaches of the house, 6to the carpenters, and to the builders, and to the masons, and for buying timber and cut stone to repair the house. 7However there was no accounting made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand; for they dealt faithfully.” 8Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in Yahweh’s house.” Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan, and he read it. 9Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, “Your servants have emptied out the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of the workmen who have the oversight of Yahweh’s house.” 10Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, “Hilkiah the priest has delivered a book to me.” Shaphan read it before the king. 11When the king had heard the words of the book of the law, he tore his clothes. 12The king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the king’s servant, saying, 13“Go inquire of Yahweh for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found; for great is the wrath of Yahweh that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that which is written concerning us.” 14So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe (now she lived in Jerusalem in the second quarter); and they talked with her. 15She said to them, “Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: ‘Tell the man who sent you to me, 16“Thus says Yahweh, ‘Behold, I will bring evil on this place, and on its inhabitants, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah has read. 17Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and it shall not be quenched.’” 18But to the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of Yahweh, thus you shall tell him, “Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: ‘Concerning the words which you have heard, 19because your heart was tender, and you humbled yourself before Yahweh, when you heard what I spoke against this place, and against its inhabitants, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and have torn your clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard you,’ says Yahweh. 20‘Therefore behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, neither shall your eyes see all the evil which I will bring on this place.’”’” They brought back this message to the king.

1Josia was acht jaren oud, toen hij koning werd, en regeerde een en dertig jaren te Jeruzalem; en de naam zijner moeder was Jedida, een dochter van Adaja, van Bozkath. 2En hij deed dat recht was in de ogen des HEEREN; en hij wandelde in al den weg van zijn vader David, en week niet af ter rechterhand noch ter linkerhand. 3Het geschiedde nu in het achttiende jaar van den koning Josia, dat de koning den schrijver Safan, den zoon van Azalia, den zoon van Mesullam, zond in het huis des HEEREN, zeggende: 4Ga op tot Hilkia, den hogepriester, opdat hij het geld opsomme, dat in het huis des HEEREN gebracht is, hetwelk de wachters des dorpels van het volk verzameld hebben; 5En dat zij dat geven in de hand der verzorgers van het werk, die besteld zijn over het huis des HEEREN; opdat zij het geven aan degenen, die het werk doen, dat in het huis des HEEREN is, om de breuken van het huis te beteren; 6Aan de timmerlieden en de bouwlieden, en de metselaars, en om hout en gehouwene stenen te kopen, om het huis te beteren. 7Doch er werd met hen geen rekening gehouden van het geld, dat in hun hand geleverd was, want zij handelden trouwelijk. 8Toen zeide de hogepriester Hilkia tot Safan, den schrijver: Ik heb het wetboek in het huis des HEEREN gevonden; en Hilkia gaf dat boek aan Safan, die las het. 9Daarna kwam Safan, de schrijver, tot den koning, en bracht den koning bescheid weder, en hij zeide: Uw knechten hebben het geld, dat in het huis gevonden was, samengebracht, en hebben het gegeven in de hand der verzorgers van het werk, die besteld waren over het huis des HEEREN. 10Ook gaf Safan, de schrijver, den koning te kennen, zeggende: De priester Hilkia heeft mij een boek gegeven. En Safan las dat voor het aangezicht des konings. 11Het geschiedde nu, als de koning de woorden des wetboeks hoorde, dat hij zijn klederen scheurde. 12En de koning gebood Hilkia, den priester, en Ahikam, den zoon van Safan, en Achbor, den zoon van Michaja, en Safan, den schrijver, en Asaja, den knecht des konings, zeggende: 13Gaat henen, vraagt den HEERE voor mij, en voor het volk, en voor het ganse Juda, over de woorden dezes boeks, dat gevonden is; want de grimmigheid des HEEREN is groot, dewelke tegen ons aangestoken is, omdat onze vaderen niet gehoord hebben naar de woorden dezes boeks, om te doen naar al wat voor ons geschreven is. 14Toen ging de priester Hilkia, en Ahikam, en Achbor, en Safan, en Asaja henen tot de profetes Hulda, de huisvrouw van Sallum, den zoon van Tikva, den zoon van Harhas, den klederbewaarder (zij nu woonde te Jeruzalem, in het tweede deel), en zij spraken tot haar. 15En zij zeide tot hen: Zo zegt de HEERE, de God Israels: Zegt tot den man, die u tot mij gezonden heeft: 16Zo zegt de HEERE: Zie, Ik zal kwaad over deze plaats brengen, en voer haar inwoners, namelijk al de woorden des boeks, dat de koning van Juda gelezen heeft. 17Daarom dat zij Mij verlaten, en anderen goden gerookt hebben, opdat zij Mij tot toorn verwekten met al het werk hunner handen, zo zal Mijn grimmigheid aangestoken worden, tegen deze plaats, en niet uitgeblust worden. 18Maar tot den koning van Juda, die u gezonden heeft, om den HEERE te vragen, alzo zult gij tot hem zeggen: Zo zegt de HEERE, de God Israels: Aangaande de woorden, die gij gehoord hebt; 19Omdat uw hart week geworden is, en gij u voor het aangezicht des HEEREN vernederd hebt, als gij hoordet, wat Ik gesproken heb tegen deze plaats en derzelver inwoners, dat zij tot een verwoesting en vloek zullen worden, en dat gij uw klederen gescheurd en voor Mijn aangezicht geweend hebt; zo heb Ik u ook verhoord, spreekt de HEERE. 20Daarom zie, Ik zal u verzamelen tot uw vaderen, en gij zult met vrede in uw graf verzameld worden, en uw ogen zullen al het kwaad niet zien, dat Ik over deze plaats brengen zal. En zij brachten den koning het antwoord weder.
