12:1
|
耶户第七年,约阿施登基,在耶路撒冷作王四十年。他母亲名叫西比亚,是别是巴人。
|
|
In the seventh year of Jehu began Jehoash to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother`s name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
|
12:2
|
约阿施在祭司耶何耶大教训他的时候,就行耶和华眼中看为正的事;
|
|
And Jehoash did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
|
12:3
|
只是邱坛还没有废去,百姓仍在那里献祭烧香。
|
|
Howbeit the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
|
12:4
|
约阿施对众祭司说:「凡奉到耶和华殿分别为圣之物所值通用的银子,或各人当纳的身价,或乐意奉到耶和华殿的银子,
|
|
And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the hallowed things that is brought into the house of Jehovah, in current money, the money of the persons for whom each man is rated, and all the money that it cometh into any man`s heart to bring into the house of Jehovah,
|
12:5
|
你们当从所认识的人收了来,修理殿的一切破坏之处。」
|
|
let the priests take it to them, every man from his acquaintance; and they shall repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
|
12:6
|
无奈到了约阿施王二十三年,祭司仍未修理殿的破坏之处。
|
|
But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
|
12:7
|
所以约阿施王召了大祭司耶何耶大和众祭司来,对他们说:「你们怎么不修理殿的破坏之处呢?从今以后,你们不要从所认识的人再收银子,要将所收的交出来,修理殿的破坏之处。」
|
|
Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the [other] priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore take no [more] money from your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
|
12:8
|
众祭司答应不再收百姓的银子,也不修理殿的破坏之处。
|
|
And the priests consented that they should take no [more] money from the people, neither repair the breaches of the house.
|
12:9
|
祭司耶何耶大取了一个柜子,在柜盖上钻了一个窟窿,放于坛旁,在进耶和华殿的右边;守门的祭司将奉到耶和华殿的一切银子投在柜里。
|
|
But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of Jehovah: and the priests that kept the threshold put therein all the money that was brought into the house of Jehovah.
|
12:10
|
他们见柜里的银子多了,便叫王的书记和大祭司上来,将耶和华殿里的银子数算包起来。
|
|
And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king`s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags and counted the money that was found in the house of Jehovah.
|
12:11
|
把所平的银子交给督工的,就是耶和华殿里办事的人;他们把银子转交修理耶和华殿的木匠和工人,
|
|
And they gave the money that was weighed out into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of Jehovah: and they paid it out to the carpenters and the builders, that wrought upon the house of Jehovah,
|
12:12
|
并瓦匠、石匠,又买木料和凿成的石头,修理耶和华殿的破坏之处,以及修理殿的各样使用。
|
|
and to the masons and the hewers of stone, and for buying timber and hewn stone to repair the breaches of the house of Jehovah, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.
|
12:13
|
但那奉到耶和华殿的银子,没有用以做耶和华殿里的银杯、蜡剪、碗、号,和别样的金银器皿,
|
|
But there were not made for the house of Jehovah cups of silver, snuffers, basins, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of Jehovah;
|
12:14
|
乃将那银子交给督工的人修理耶和华的殿;
|
|
for they gave that to them that did the work, and repaired therewith the house of Jehovah.
|
12:15
|
且将银子交给办事的人转交做工的人,不与他们算账,因为他们办事诚实。
|
|
Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to give to them that did the work; for they dealt faithfully.
|
12:16
|
惟有赎愆祭、赎罪祭的银子没有奉到耶和华的殿,都归祭司。
|
|
The money for the trespass-offerings, and the money for the sin-offerings, was not brought into the house of Jehovah: it was the priests`.
|
12:17
|
那时,亚兰王哈薛上来攻打迦特,攻取了,就定意上来攻打耶路撒冷。
|
|
Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it; and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
|
12:18
|
犹大王约阿施将他列祖犹大王约沙法、约兰、亚哈谢所分别为圣的物和自己所分别为圣的物,并耶和华殿与王宫府库里所有的金子都送给亚兰王哈薛;哈薛就不上耶路撒冷来了。
|
|
And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and of the king`s house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.
|
12:19
|
约阿施其余的事,凡他所行的都写在犹大列王记上。
|
|
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
|
12:20
|
约阿施的臣仆起来背叛,在下悉拉的米罗宫那里将他杀了。
|
|
And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and smote Joash at the house of Millo, [on the way] that goeth down to Silla.
|
12:21
|
杀他的那臣仆就是示米押的儿子约撒甲和朔默的儿子约萨拔。众人将他葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子亚玛谢接续他作王。
|
|
For Jozacar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
