¹Kui see kõik oli lõpetatud, siis läks kogu kohalolev Iisrael välja Juuda linnadesse; ja nad purustasid ebaususambad, raiusid katki viljakustulbad ning kiskusid maha ohvrikünkad ja altarid kogu Juudas, Benjaminis, Efraimis ja Manasses, kuni kõik oli hävitatud. Siis läksid kõik Iisraeli lapsed tagasi, igaüks oma pärisosale, oma linnadesse.

¹And when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke the columns, and hewed down the Asherahs, and demolished the high places and the altars in all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. And all the children of Israel returned every man to his possession, into their cities.

²Ja Hiskija seadis preestrite ja leviitide rühmad rühmade viisi, igaühe vastavalt teenistusele, mis preestritele ja leviitidele oli ette nähtud, tooma põletus- ja tänuohvreid, teenima, tänama ja kiitma Issanda leeri väravais.

²And Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests, and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, as well the priests as the Levites, for burnt-offerings and for peace-offerings, to serve and to give thanks and to praise in the gates of the courts of Jehovah.

³Ja kuninga poolt oli toetus tema isiklikust omandist põletusohvrite tarvis: hommikusteks ja õhtusteks põletusohvriteks ja põletusohvriteks hingamispäevil, noorkuupäevil ja pühil, nõnda nagu Issanda Seaduses on kirjutatud.

³And [he ordered] that the king's portion [should be taken] from his substance for the burnt-offerings: for the morning and evening burnt-offerings, for the burnt-offerings of the sabbaths, and of the new moons, and of the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.

⁴Ja ta käskis rahvast, kes elas Jeruusalemmas, anda preestritele ja leviitidele nende osa, et nad püsiksid Issanda Seaduses.

⁴And he commanded the people that dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might be encouraged in the law of Jehovah.

⁵Ja kui see käsk oli laiali läinud, siis tõid Iisraeli lapsed palju uudsesaaki viljast, veinist, õlist ja meest ning igasugu põllusaadustest; nad tõid rohkesti kümnist kõigest.

⁵And as soon as the commandment was published, the children of Israel gave in abundance the firstfruits of corn, new wine and oil and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and they brought in abundantly the tithe of all [things].

⁶Ja Iisraeli ja Juuda lapsed, kes elasid Juuda linnades, needki tõid kümnist veistest ning lammastest ja kitsedest, samuti kümnist pühadest andidest, mis olid pühitsetud Issandale, nende Jumalale, ja panid selle kuhjadesse.

⁶And the children of Israel and of Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated to Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.

⁷Nad hakkasid panema kuhjadesse kolmandas kuus ja lõpetasid seitsmendas kuus.

⁷In the third month they began to lay the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.

⁸Kui Hiskija ja vürstid tulid ning nägid kuhje, siis nad kiitsid Issandat ja tema rahvast Iisraeli.

⁸And Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, and they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.

⁹Ja kui Hiskija küsitles preestreid ja leviite nende kuhjade kohta,

⁹And Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.

¹⁰siis vastas temale ülempreester Asarja, Saadoki soost, ja ütles: 'Sellest alates, kui Issanda kotta hakati tooma tõstelõivu, oleme söönud ja meie kõhud on täis, ja veelgi on palju järele jäänud; sest Issand on õnnistanud oma rahvast ja nõnda on see suur kogus üle jäänud.'

¹⁰And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok spoke to him and said, Since they began to bring the heave-offerings into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and been satisfied and have left plenty; for Jehovah has blessed his people; and what is left is this great store.

¹¹Siis Hiskija käskis kambrid Issanda kojas korda seada; ja kui need olid korda seatud,

¹¹And Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of Jehovah; and they prepared [them],

¹²siis viidi tõstelõiv, kümnis ja pühad annid hoolsasti sisse. Nende ülevaatajaks sai leviit Konanja; ja tema vend Simei oli teiseks.

¹²and brought in the heave-offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully; and over these Cononiah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.

¹³Ja Jehiel, Asasja, Nahat, Asael, Jerimot, Joosabad, Eliel, Jismakja, Mahet ja Benaja olid ametnikud Konanja ja tema venna Simei käe all kuningas Hiskija ja Jumala koja eestseisja Asarja määramise kohaselt.

¹³And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Jismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah were overseers under the hand of Cononiah and Shimei his brother, at the command of Hezekiah the king and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.

¹⁴Ja leviit Koore, Jimna poeg, idapoolse värava hoidja, oli Jumalale toodavate vabatahtlike andide hooldaja, kes pidi jaotama Issanda tõstelõivu ja kõige pühamaid ande.

¹⁴And Kore the son of Jimnah the Levite, the doorkeeper toward the east, was over the voluntary-offerings of God, to distribute the heave-offerings of Jehovah, and the most holy things.

¹⁵Ja tema käe all olid Eeden, Minjamin, Jeesua, Semaja, Amarja ja Sekanja, kes pidid preestrite linnades ustavalt jaotama oma vendadele, niihästi vanemaile kui nooremaile rühmade kaupa,

¹⁵And under him were Eden and Miniamin and Jeshua and Shemaiah, Amariah and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in [their] set trust, to make distributions to their brethren by [their] divisions, to the great as to the small,

¹⁶vastavalt nende suguvõsakirja kandmisele, meessoost kolmeaastased ja üle selle, kõigile, kes pidid tulema Issanda kotta igapäevast teenistuskohustust täitma oma rühmade kaupa.

¹⁶besides those from three years old and upward who as males were entered in the genealogical register, -- all that came into the house of Jehovah, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their charges, according to their divisions,

¹⁷Ja preestrid kanti suguvõsakirja nende perekondade kaupa, aga leviidid, kahekümneaastased ja üle selle, vastavalt nende teenistuskohustustele rühmade kaupa.

¹⁷-- both to the priests enregistered according to their fathers' houses, and to the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their charges, by their divisions;

¹⁸Nad kanti suguvõsakirja kõigi oma laste, naiste, poegade ja tütardega, terve kogudusena, sest oma ametikohustuse tõttu said nad pühitsetuiks.

¹⁸and to all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, the whole congregation of those entered in the register; for in their trust they hallowed themselves to be holy.

¹⁹Ja Aaroni poegadel, preestritel, kes elasid oma karjamaalinnade väljadel, olid igas linnas nimeliselt määratud mehed, kes pidid osa kätte andma igale meesterahvale preestrite hulgas ja igale suguvõsakirja kantud leviidile.

¹⁹And for the sons of Aaron the priests who were in the country, in the suburbs of their cities, there were, in every several city, men expressed by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all the Levites that were entered in the register.

²⁰Nõnda tegi Hiskija kogu Juudas; ta tegi, mis oli hea, õige ja kohus Issanda, tema Jumala ees.

²⁰And thus did Hezekiah throughout Judah, and wrought what was good and right and true before Jehovah his God.

²¹Ja iga tööd, mida ta alustas, et otsida oma Jumalat, olgu Jumala koja teenistuses või Seaduse ja käskudega seoses, tegi ta kõigest südamest ja see läks tal korda.

²¹And in every work that he undertook in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart and prospered.
