Ezechias inviteth all Israel to celebrate the pasch; the solemnity is kept fourteen days.

1And Ezechias sent to all Israel and Juda: and he wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasses, that they should come to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel,Quando ancora Ezechia per tutto Israele, e per tutto il paese di Giuda: e scrisse lettera a quelli di Ephraim, e a quelli di Manasse, invitandogli alla casa del Signore in Gerusalemme, per celebrare la Pasqua al Signore Dio d'Israele.EZECHIAS also sent to al Israel and Iuda: and he wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasses, that they should come to the house of our Lord in Ierusalem, and should make a Phase to our Lord the God of Israel.Misit quoque Ezechias ad omnem Israël et Judam: scripsitque epistolas ad Ephraim et Manassen ut venirent ad domum Domini in Jerusalem, et facerent Phase Domino Deo Israël. 2For the king, taking counsel, and the princes, and all the assembly of Jerusalem, decreed to keep the phase the second month.Conciossiachè, tenuto consiglio il re, e i magnati, e tutta la sinagoga di Gerusalemme, avean determinato di far la Pasqua il secondo mese.Counsel therfore being taken of the king and the princes, and of al the assemblie of Ierusalem, they decreed to make the Phase the second moneth.Inito ergo consilio regis et principum, et universi cœtus Jerusalem, decreverunt ut facerent Phase mense secundo. 3For they could not keep it in its time; because there were not priests enough sanctified, and the people was not as yet gathered together to Jerusalem.Perocché non avean potuto farla a suo tempo, perchè non era ancora santificato un sufficiente numero di sacerdoti, e il popolo non aveva ancora potuto adunarsi in Gerusalemme.For they could not make it in his time because the Priestes that might suffise, had not bene sanctified, and the people had not as yet bene gathered into Ierusalem.Non enim potuerant facere in tempore suo, quia sacerdotes qui possent sufficere, sanctificati non fuerant, et populus nondum congregatus fuerat in Jerusalem. 4And the thing pleased the king, and all the people.E questa risoluzione piacque al re, e a tutta la moltitudine.And the word pleased the king, and al the multitude.Placuitque sermo regi, et omni multitudini. 5And they decreed to send messengers to all Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, that they should come, and keep the phase to the Lord the God of Israel in Jerusalem: for many had not kept it as it is prescribed by the law.E risolverono di spedir nunzj per tutto Israele, da Bersabee fino a Dan, affinchè venissero a far la Pasqua al Signore Dio d'Israele in Gerusalemme: perocchè molti non l'aveano fatta, com'è prescritto dalla legge.And they decreed to send messengers into al Israel from Bersabee vnto dan, that they should come, and make the Phase to our Lord the God of Israel in Ierusalem: for manie had not made it as is prescribed by the law.Et decreverunt ut mitterent nuntios in universum Israël, de Bersabee usque Dan, ut venirent, et facerent Phase Domino Deo Israël in Jerusalem: multi enim non fecerant sicut lege præscriptum est.

6And the posts went with letters by commandment of the king, and his princes, to all Israel and Juda, proclaiming according to the king’s orders: Ye children of Israel, turn again to the Lord the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Israel: and he will return to the remnant of you that have escaped the hand of the king of the Assyrians.E partirono le staffette per ordine del re, e de' suoi grandi con lettere a tutto Israele, e a Giuda; nelle quali, secondo l'ordine del re, si diceva: Figliuoli d'Israele, tornate al Signore Dio d'Abramo, d'Isacco, e d'Israele: ed ei tornerà alle reliquie scampate dalle mani del re Assiro.And the postes went forth with letters of commandement from the king, and his princes, into al Israel and Iuda, according to that, which the king had commanded, proclaming: Children of Israel returne ye to our Lord the God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel: and he wil returne to the remnant, that hath escaped the hand of the king of the Assyrians.Perrexeruntque cursores cum epistolis ex regis imperio, et principum ejus, in universum Israël et Judam, juxta id quod rex jusserat, prædicantes: Filii Israël, revertimini ad Dominum Deum Abraham, et Isaac, et Israël: et revertetur ad reliquias quæ effugerunt manum regis Assyriorum. 7Be not like your fathers, and brethren, who departed from the Lord the God of their fathers, and he hath given them up to destruction, as you see.Non imitate i padri vostri, e i fratelli, i quali si allontanarono dal Signore Dio de' padri loro, il quale gli ha mandati in perdizione, come voi vedete.Become not as your fathers and brethren, which haue reuolted from our Lord the God of their fathers, who hath deliuered them into destruction, as your selues see.Nolite fieri sicut patres vestri et fratres, qui recesserunt a Domino Deo patrum suorum, qui tradidit eos in interitum, ut ipsi cernitis. 8Harden not your necks, as your fathers did: yield yourselves to the Lord, and come to his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified forever: serve the Lord the God of your fathers, and the wrath of his indignation shall be turned away from you.Non indurate le vostre cervici, come i padri vostri: ubbidite al Signore, e venite al suo Santuario santificato da lui in perpetuo: servite il Signore Dio de' padri vostri, e l'ira, e il furore di lui più non vi premerà.Harden not your neckes, as your fathers: geue handes to our Lord, and come to his Sanctuarie, which he hath sanctified for ouer: serue our Lord the God of your fathers, and the wrath of his furie shal be turned away from you.Nolite indurare cervices vestras, sicut patres vestri: tradite manus Domino, et venite ad sanctuarium ejus quod sanctificavit in æternum: servite Domino Deo patrum vestrorum, et avertetur a vobis ira furoris ejus. 9For if you turn again to the Lord, your brethren, and children shall find mercy before their masters, that have led them away captive, and they shall return into this land: for the Lord your God is merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if you return to him.Perocché se voi tornerete al Signore, i vostri fratelli, e i figliuoli troveranno misericordia nei loro padroni, che gli hanno condotti schiavi, ed ei torneranno in questo paese: conciossiachè pio, e clemente egli è il Signore Dio vostro, e vi vedrà di buon occhio, se a lui tornerete.For if you shal returne to our Lord: your brethren, and children shal haue mercie before their Lordes, that haue led them captiue, and they shal returne into this land: for our Lord your God is merciful, and wil not turne away his face from you, if you shal returne to him.Si enim vos reversi fueritis ad Dominum, fratres vestri et filii habebunt misericordiam coram dominis suis, qui illos duxerunt captivos, et revertentur in terram hanc: pius enim et clemens est Dominus Deus vester, et non avertet faciem suam a vobis, si reversi fueritis ad eum.

10So the posts went speedily from city to city, through the land of Ephraim, and of Manasses, even to Zabulon, whilst they laughed at them and mocked them.Andavan pertanto velocemente le staffette di città in città nel paese di Ephraim, e di Manasse, e fino a Zàbulon, facendone quelli delle risate, e delle beffe.Therfore the postes went forward spedely from citie to citie, through the land of Ephraim, and of Manasses, as farre as Zabulon, they mocking and skorning them.Igitur cursores pergebant velociter de civitate in civitatem per terram Ephraim et Manasse usque ad Zabulon, illis irridentibus et subsannantibus eos. 11Nevertheless some men of Aser, and of Manasses, and of Zabulon, yielding to the counsel, came to Jerusalem.Con tutto ciò alcuni di quelli di Aser, e di Manasse, e di Zàbulon, abbracciando gli avvertimenti, vennero a Gerusalemme.Neuerthelesse certayne men of Aser, and Manasses, and Zabulon, condescending to the counsel, came to Ierusalem.Attamen quidam viri ex Aser, et Manasse, et Zabulon acquiescentes consilio, venerunt Jerusalem. 12But the hand of God was in Juda, to give them one heart to do the word of the Lord, according to the commandment of the king, and of the princes.Ma quanto a Giuda, la mano del Signore operò in essi, dando loro un sol cuore per ubbidire alla intimazione del re, e dei principi, e alla parola del Signore.But the hand of God was in Iuda, to geue them one hart to doe the word of our Lord, according to the precept of the king and of the princes.In Juda vero facta est manus Domini ut daret eis cor unum, ut facerent juxta præceptum regis et principum verbum Domini. 13And much people were assembled to Jerusalem to celebrate the solemnity of the unleavened bread in the second month:E si adunarono molti popoli in Gerusalemme, per celebrare la solennità degli azzimi, il secondo mese.And much people was gathered into Ierusalem to make the solemnitie of Azimes in the second moneth:Congregatique sunt in Jerusalem populi multi ut facerent solemnitatem azymorum, in mense secundo: 14And they arose and destroyed the altars that were in Jerusalem, and took away all things in which incense was burnt to idols and cast them into the torrent Cedron.E corsero a distruggere gli altari, che erano in Gerusalemme; e tutti i luoghi dove si bruciava incenso agl'idoli, li rovinarono, e gettaron (questi) nel torrente Cedron.And rising they destroyed the altars that were in Ierusalem, and ouerthrowing al thinges wherin incense was burnt to idols, they threw it into the Torrent cedron.et surgentes destruxerunt altaria quæ erant in Jerusalem, atque universa in quibus idolis adolebatur incensum, subvertentes, projecerunt in torrentem Cedron.

15And they immolated the phase on the fourteenth day of the second month. And the priests and the Levites being at length sanctified offered holocausts in the house of the Lord.E immolaron la Pasqua ai quattordici del secondo mese. È i sacerdoti, e i Leviti, i quali finalmente si erano santificati, offersero olocausti nella casa del Signore.And they immolated the Phase the fourtenth day of the second moneth. The Priestes also and the Leuites at length being sanctified offered holocaustes in the house of our Lord.Immolaverunt autem Phase quartadecima die mensis secundi. Sacerdotes quoque atque Levitæ tandem sanctificati, obtulerunt holocausta in domo Domini: 16And they stood in their order according to the disposition and law of Moses the man of God: but the priests received the blood which was to be poured out, from the hands of the Levites,E facevano le loro funzioni, secondo quel, che dispone la legge di Mosè uomo di Dio: e i sacerdoti ricevevano dalle mani de' Leviti il sangue da spandere.And they stoode in their order according to the disposition, & law of Moyses the man of God: but the Priestes receiued the bloud to be powred out of the handes of the Leuites,steteruntque in ordine suo juxta dispositionem et legem Moysi hominis Dei: sacerdotes vero suscipiebant effundendum sanguinem de manibus Levitarum, 17Because a great number was not sanctified: and therefore the Levites immolated the phase for them that came not in time to be sanctified to the Lord.Perchè una gran moltitudine non erano santificati: e perciò i Leviti immolavan la Pasqua per quelli, che non eran venuti a tempo per santamente immolarla al Signore.because a great multitude Was not sanctified: & therfore the Leuites immolated the Phase for them, that came not in time to be sanctified to our Lord.eo quod multa turba sanctificata non esset: et idcirco immolarent Levitæ Phase his qui non occurrerant sanctificari Domino. 18For a great part of the people from Ephraim, and Manasses, and Issachar, and Zabulon, that had not been sanctified, ate the phase otherwise than it is written: and Ezechias prayed for them, saying: The Lord who is good will shew mercy,E anche una gran parte del popolo di Ephraim, e di Manasse, e d'Issachar, e di Zàbulon, i quali non si erano purificati, mangiaron la Pasqua, non secondo quello, che sta scritto. Ed Ezechia fece orazione per essi, e disse: Il Signore, che è buono, avrà misericordiaFor a great part of the people of Ephraim, and Manasses, and Issachar, and Zabulon, that had not bene sanctified, did eate the Phase, not according to that which is writen: and Ezechias prayed for them, saying: Our good Lord wil be merciful, to al them,Magna etiam pars populi de Ephraim, et Manasse, et Issachar, et Zabulon, quæ sanctificata non fuerat, comedit Phase non juxta quod scriptum est: et oravit pro eis Ezechias, dicens: Dominus bonus propitiabitur 19To all them, who with their whole heart, seek the Lord the God of their fathers: and will not impute it to them that they are not sanctified.Di tutti quelli, i quali con tutto il cuore cercano il Signore Dio de' padri oro; e non imputerà ad essi il non essersi pienamente purificati.that in al their hart secke our Lord the God of their fathers: and wil not impute it to them that they are not sanctified.cunctis, qui in toto corde requirunt Dominum Deum patrum suorum: et non imputabit eis quod minus sanctificati sunt.

20And the Lord heard him, and was merciful to the people.E il Signore lo esaudì, e si placò col popolo.Whom our Lord heard, and was pacified to the people.Quem exaudivit Dominus, et placatus est populo. 21And the children of Israel, that were found at Jerusalem, kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great joy, praising the Lord every day, the Levites also, and the priests, with instruments that agreed to their office.E i figliuoli d'Israele, che si trovarono a Gerusalemme, celebrarono la solennità degli azzimi per sette giorni con grande allegrezza, laudando ogni di il Signore: e così anche i Leviti, e i sacerdoti cogli strumenti convenienti al grado loro.And the children of Israel, that were found in Ierusalem, made the solemnitie of Azimes seuen daies in great ioy, praysing our Lord euerie day. The Leuites also and the Priestes by instrumentes, that agreed to their office.Feceruntque filii Israël, qui inventi sunt in Jerusalem, solemnitatem azymorum septem diebus in lætitia magna, laudantes Dominum per singulos dies: Levitæ quoque et sacerdotes per organa quæ suo officio congruebant. 22And Ezechias spoke to the heart of all the Levites, that had good understanding concerning the Lord: and they ate during the seven days of the solemnity, immolating victims of peace offerings, and praising the Lord the God of their fathers.Ed Ezechia parlò benignamente a tutti i Leviti, i quali aveano molta cognizione delle cose del Signore: e mangiarono nei sette giorni della solennità le vittime pacifiche, che si offerivano, lodando il Signore Dio de' padri loro.And Ezechias spake to the hart of al the Leuites, that had good vnderstanding concerning our Lord: and they did eate during the seuen daies of the solemnitie, immolating victimes of pacifiques, and praysing our Lord the God of their fathers.Et locutus est Ezechias ad cor omnium Levitarum qui habebant intelligentiam bonam super Domino: et comederunt septem diebus solemnitatis, immolantes victimas pacificorum, et laudantes Dominum Deum patrum suorum. 23And it pleased the whole multitude to keep other seven days: which they did with great joy.E tutta la moltitudine si accordò a celebrare altri sette giorni, come fecero con gran letizia.And it pleased the whole multitude to celebrate it other seuen daies: which also they did with great ioy.Placuitque universæ multitudini ut celebrarent etiam alios dies septem: quod et fecerunt cum ingenti gaudio. 24For Ezechias the king of Juda had given to the multitude a thousand bullocks, and seven thousand sheep: and the princes had given the people a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheep: and a great number of priests was sanctified.Imperocché Ezechia re di Giuda avea dato alla moltitudine mille tori, e sette mila pecore: e i principi della città avean dato al popolo mille tori, e dieci mila pecore; onde un gran numero di sacerdoti si consagrò.For Ezechias the king of Iuda had geuen the multitude a thousand oxen, and seuen thousand sheepe: but the princes had geuen the people oxen a thousand, & sheepe ten thousand: there was sanctified therfore a verie great multitude of Priestes.Ezechias enim rex Juda præbuerat multitudini mille tauros, et septem millia ovium: principes vero dederant populo tauros mille, et oves decem millia: sanctificata est ergo sacerdotum plurima multitudo.

25And all the multitude of Juda with the priests and Levites, and all the assembly, that came out of Israel; and the proselytes of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Juda were full of joy.E tutta la gente di Giuda, e tanto i sacerdoti, come i Leviti, e tutta la moltitudine, che era venuta da Israele; come anche i proseliti sì del paese d'Israele, come quelli, che dimoravano nelle terre di Giuda, erano inondati di allegrezza.And al the multitude of Iuda was ful of mirth, as wel of the Priestes and Leuites, as of al the assemblie, that came out of Israel; of the proselites also of the land of Israel, and them that dwelt in Iuda.Et hilaritate perfusa omnis turba Juda, tam sacerdotum et Levitarum, quam universæ frequentiæ quæ venerat ex Israël: proselytorum quoque de terra Israël, et habitantium in Juda. 26And there was a great solemnity in Jerusalem, such as had not been in that city since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel.E la solennità celebrata in Gerusalemme fu grande, e non vi era stata la simile in quella città dal tempo di Salomone figliuolo di David re d'Israele.And there was made a great solemnitie in Ierusalem, such as had not bene in that citie from the dayes of Salomon the sonne of Dauid the king of Israel.Factaque est grandis celebritas in Jerusalem, qualis a diebus Salomonis filii David regis Israël in ea urbe non fuerat. 27And the priests and the Levites rose up and blessed the people: and their voice was heard: and their prayer came to the holy dwelling place of heaven.E si alzarono i sacerdoti, e i Le viti per benedire il popolo, e furono esaudite le loro voci: e la orazione penetrò all'abitazione santa del cielo.And the Priestes & the Leuites rose vp blessing the people: & their voice was heard: and their prayer came into the holie habitation of heauen.Surrexerunt autem sacerdotes atque Levitæ benedicentes populo: et exaudita est vox eorum, pervenitque oratio in habitaculum sanctum cæli.
