¹约西亚作犹大王（代下34:1-2）

¹A son of eight years [is] Josiah in his reigning, and thirty and one years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Jedidah daughter of Adaiah of Boskath,

²他行耶和华看为正的事，跟随他祖宗大卫所行的一切道路，不偏左右。

²and he doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah, and walketh in all the way of David his father, and hath not turned aside — right or left.

³重修圣殿（代下34:8-13）约西亚在位第十八年，王差派米书兰的孙子、亚萨利的儿子、书记沙番到耶和华的殿，吩咐他说：

³And it cometh to pass, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king hath sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of Jehovah, saying,

⁴“你上去到希勒家大祭司那里，叫他把献给耶和华殿的银子，就是守门的从人民所收集的，结算一下。

⁴`Go up unto Hilkiah the high priest, and he doth complete the silver that is brought into the house of Jehovah, that the keepers of the threshold have gathered from the people,

⁵然后要他们把银子交到在耶和华殿管理工匠的人手中，他们可以把银子交付在耶和华殿修补破坏的地方的工匠，

⁵and they give it into the hand of the doers of the work, the overseers, in the house of Jehovah, and they give it to the doers of the work that [is] in the house of Jehovah, to strengthen the breach of the house,

⁶就是交给木匠、建筑工人、石匠，又购买木材和凿好的石头，用来修理圣殿破坏的地方。

⁶to artificers, and to builders, and [to repairers of] the wall, and to buy wood and hewn stones to strengthen the house;

⁷银子交在他们手中，不用和他们算帐，因为他们办事诚实。”

⁷only, the silver that is given into their hand is not reckoned with them, for in faithfulness they are dealing.

⁸发现律法书（代下34:14-21）希勒家大祭司对书记沙番说：“我在耶和华的殿里找到了一卷律法书。”他把书卷交给沙番；沙番就阅读那书卷。

⁸And Hilkiah the high priest saith unto Shaphan the scribe, `A book of the law I have found in the house of Jehovah;` and Hilkiah giveth the book unto Shaphan, and he readeth it.

⁹书记沙番来见王，向王回报说：“你的臣仆已经把殿里的银子清点，交在耶和华殿里管理工匠的人手中。”

⁹And Shaphan the scribe cometh in unto the king, and bringeth the king back word, and saith, `Thy servants have poured out the silver that hath been found in the house, and give it into the hand of the doers of the work, the inspectors, in the house of Jehovah.`

¹⁰书记沙番又告诉王说：“希勒家大祭司交给我一卷书卷。”书记沙番就在王面前诵读那书卷。

¹⁰And Shaphan the scribe declareth to the king, saying, `A book hath Hilkiah the priest given to me;` and Shaphan readeth it before the king.

¹¹王听见律法书上的话的时候，就撕裂自己的衣服。

¹¹And it cometh to pass, at the king`s hearing the words of the book of the law, that he rendeth his garments,

¹²王又吩咐希勒家祭司、沙番的儿子亚希甘、米该亚的儿子亚革博、书记沙番和王的臣仆及亚撒雅说：

¹²and the king commandeth Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam son of Shaphan, and Achbor son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah servant of the king, saying,

¹³“你们去，为了我、为了人民、为了犹大全国，因着所发现的这书卷上的话求问耶和华，因为耶和华向我们所发的怒气极大；这是因着我们的祖先没有听从这律法书上的话，没有照着所有写给我们的去行。”

¹³`Go, seek Jehovah for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found, for great [is] the fury of Jehovah that is kindled against us, because that our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according to all that is written for us.`

¹⁴女先知户勒大的预言（代下34:22-28）于是希勒家祭司、亚希甘、亚革博、沙番、亚撒雅去见女先知户勒大。她就是掌管礼服的沙龙的妻子，沙龙是哈珥哈斯的孙子、特瓦的儿子。她住在耶路撒冷第二区；他们就把事情都告诉了她。

¹⁴And Hilkiah the priest goeth, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, unto Huldah the prophetess, wife of Shallum, son of Tikvah, son of Harhas, keeper of the garments, and she is dwelling in Jerusalem in the second, and they speak unto her.

¹⁵她对他们说：“耶和华以色列的　神这样说：‘告诉那差你们到我这里来的人说：

¹⁵And she saith unto them, `Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Say to the man who hath sent you unto me:

¹⁶耶和华这样说：看哪，我要照着犹大王所念那书卷上所有的话，使灾祸降临在这地方和它的居民身上，

¹⁶Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am bringing in evil unto this place and on its inhabitants, all the words of the book that the king of Judah hath read,

¹⁷因为他们背弃了我，向别的神焚香。他们所行的一切都使我发怒，因此我的怒火要在这地方燃点，不会熄灭。

¹⁷because that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger with every work of their hands, and My wrath hath been kindled against this place, and it is not quenched.

¹⁸至于那差你们来求问耶和华的犹大王，你们要这样对他说：耶和华以色列的　神这样说：有关你所听见的话，

¹⁸`And unto the king of Judah, who is sending you to seek Jehovah, thus do ye say unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, The words that thou hast heard —

¹⁹你听见我攻击这地方和它的居民的话，就是他们要成为荒凉，受咒诅，你的心就顺服，在我面前谦卑，又撕裂自己的衣服，在我面前哀哭，我已经听到了。这是耶和华的宣告。

¹⁹because thy heart [is] tender, and thou art humbled because of Jehovah, in thy hearing that which I have spoken against this place, and against its inhabitants, to be for a desolation, and for a reviling, and dost rend thy garments, and weep before Me — I also have heard — the affirmation of Jehovah —

²⁰因此，看哪，我要使你归到你的祖先那里，你必平平安安地葬在你的坟墓里；你不会看见我要降在这地的一切灾祸。’”他们就把这话向王回报。

²⁰therefore, lo, I am gathering thee unto thy fathers, and thou hast been gathered unto thy grave in peace, and thine eyes do not look on any of the evil that I am bringing in on this place;` and they bring the king back word.
