| | 30:1 | 希西家差遣人去見以色列和猶大眾人、又寫信給以法蓮和瑪拿西人、叫他們到耶路撒冷耶和華的殿、向耶和華以色列的 神守逾越節． | And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel. |
| | 30:2 | 因為王和眾首領、並耶路撒冷全會眾已經商議、要在二月內守逾越節。 | For the king had taken counsel, and his princes, and all the congregation in Jerusalem, to keep the passover in the second month. |
| | 30:3 | 正月〔原文作那時〕間他們不能守、因為自潔的祭司尚不敷用、百姓也沒有聚集在耶路撒冷。 | For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves sufficiently, neither had the people gathered themselves together to Jerusalem. |
| | 30:4 | 王與全會眾都以這事為善。 | And the thing pleased the king and all the congregation. |
| | 30:5 | 於是定了命令、傳遍以色列、從別是巴直到但、使他們都來、在耶路撒冷向耶和華以色列的 神守逾越節、因為照所寫的例、守這節的不多了。〔或作因為民許久沒有照所寫的例守節了〕 | So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done it of a long time in such sort as it was written. |
| | 30:6 | 驛卒就把王和眾首領的信、遵着王命傳遍以色列和猶大．信內說、以色列人哪、你們當轉向耶和華亞伯拉罕、以撒、以色列的 神、好叫他轉向你們這脫離亞述王手的餘民。 | So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, and according to the commandment of the king, saying, Ye children of Israel, turn again unto the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, and he will return to the remnant of you, that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria. |
| | 30:7 | 你們不要效法你們列祖、和你們的弟兄、他們干犯耶和華他們列祖的 神、以致耶和華丟棄他們、使他們敗亡、〔或作令人驚駭〕正如你們所見的。 | And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers, who therefore gave them up to desolation, as ye see. |
| | 30:8 | 現在不要像你們列祖硬着頸項、只要歸順耶和華、進入他的聖所、就是永遠成聖的居所．又要事奉耶和華你們的 神、好使他的烈怒轉離你們。 | Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you. |
| | 30:9 | 你們若轉向耶和華、你們的弟兄和兒女、必在擄掠他們的人面前蒙憐恤、得以歸回這地、因為耶和華你們的 神有恩典、施憐憫．你們若轉向他、他必不轉臉不顧你們。 | For if ye turn again unto the LORD, your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that lead them captive, so that they shall come again into this land: for the LORD your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him. |
| | 30:10 | 驛卒就由這城跑到那城、傳遍了以法蓮、瑪拿西、直到西布倫．那裏的人卻戲笑他們、譏誚他們。 | So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh even unto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorn, and mocked them. |
| | 30:11 | 然而亞設、瑪拿西、西布倫中、也有人自卑、來到耶路撒冷。 | Nevertheless divers of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem. |
| | 30:12 | 神也感動猶大人、使他們一心遵行王與眾首領憑耶和華之言所發的命令。 | Also in Judah the hand of God was to give them one heart to do the commandment of the king and of the princes, by the word of the LORD. |
| | 30:13 | 二月、有許多人在耶路撒冷聚集、成為大會、要守除酵節。 | And there assembled at Jerusalem much people to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great congregation. |
| | 30:14 | 他們起來、把耶路撒冷的祭壇、和燒香的壇、盡都除去、拋在汲淪溪中。 | And they arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and all the altars for incense took they away, and cast them into the brook Kidron. |
| | 30:15 | 二月十四日、宰了逾越節的羊羔．祭司與利未人覺得慚愧、就潔淨自己、把燔祭奉到耶和華殿中。 | Then they killed the passover on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought in the burnt offerings into the house of the LORD. |
| | 30:16 | 遵着神人摩西的律法、照例站在自己的地方．祭司從利未人手裏接過血來、灑在壇上。 | And they stood in their place after their manner, according to the law of Moses the man of God: the priests sprinkled the blood, which they received of the hand of the Levites. |
| | 30:17 | 會中有許多人尚未自潔、所以利未人為一切不潔之人宰逾越節的羊羔、使他們在耶和華面前成為聖潔。 | For there were many in the congregation that were not sanctified: therefore the Levites had the charge of the killing of the passovers for every one that was not clean, to sanctify them unto the LORD. |
| | 30:18 | 以法蓮、瑪拿西、以薩迦、西布倫、有許多人尚未自潔、他們卻也喫逾越節的羊羔、不合所記錄的定例．希西家為他們禱告、說、凡專心尋求 神、就是耶和華他列祖之 神的、雖不照着聖所潔淨之禮自潔、求至善的耶和華也饒恕他。 | For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet did they eat the passover otherwise than it was written. But Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The good LORD pardon every one |
| | 30:19 | 〔見上節〕 | That prepareth his heart to seek God, the LORD God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed according to the purification of the sanctuary. |
| | 30:20 | 耶和華垂聽希西家的禱告、就饒恕〔原文作醫治〕百姓。 | And the LORD hearkened to Hezekiah, and healed the people. |
| | 30:21 | 在耶路撒冷的以色列人、大大喜樂、守除酵節七日．利未人和祭司、用響亮的樂器、日日頌讚耶和華。 | And the children of Israel that were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness: and the Levites and the priests praised the LORD day by day, singing with loud instruments unto the LORD. |
| | 30:22 | 希西家慰勞一切善於事奉耶和華的利未人．於是眾人喫節筵七日、又獻平安祭、且向耶和華他們列祖的 神認罪。 | And Hezekiah spake comfortably unto all the Levites that taught the good knowledge of the LORD: and they did eat throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings, and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers. |
| | 30:23 | 全會眾商議、要再守節七日．於是歡歡喜喜地又守節七日。 | And the whole assembly took counsel to keep other seven days: and they kept other seven days with gladness. |
| | 30:24 | 猶大王希西家賜給會眾公牛一千隻、羊七千隻為祭物．眾首領也賜給會眾公牛一千隻、羊一萬隻．並有許多的祭司潔淨自己。 | For Hezekiah king of Judah did give to the congregation a thousand bullocks and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the congregation a thousand bullocks and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests sanctified themselves. |
| | 30:25 | 猶大全會眾、祭司利未人、並那從以色列地來的會眾、和寄居的人、以及猶大寄居的人、盡都喜樂。 | And all the congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced. |
| | 30:26 | 這樣、在耶路撒冷大有喜樂、自從以色列王大衛兒子所羅門的時候、在耶路撒冷沒有這樣的喜樂。 | So there was great joy in Jerusalem: for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was not the like in Jerusalem. |
| | 30:27 | 那時、祭司利未人起來、為民祝福．他們的聲音、蒙 神垂聽、他們的禱告、達到天上的聖所。 | Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy dwelling place, even unto heaven. |
