21 — 4 Kings (2 Kings)

1Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Haphsiba.Manasse era in età di dodici anni quando principiò a regnare; e regnò cinquantacinque anni in Gerusalemme: sua madre ebbe nome Haphsiba.TWELVE yeares old was Manasses, when he began to reigne, & he reigned fiue and fiftie yeares in Ierusalem: the name of his mother was haphsiba.Duodecim annorum erat Manasses cum regnare cœpisset, et quinquaginta quinque annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Haphsiba. 2And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, according to the idols of the nations, which the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.Egli fece il male nel cospetto del Signore, onorando gl'idoli delle nazioni sterminate già dal Signore all'arrivo de' figliuoli d'Israele.And he did euil in the sight of our Lord, acording to the idols of the Nations, which our Lord destroyed from the face of the children of Israel.Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, juxta idola gentium quas delevit Dominus a facie filiorum Israël. 3And he turned, and built up the high places, which Ezechias, his father, had destroyed: and he set up altars to Baal, and made groves, as Achab, the king of Israel, had done: and he adored all the host of heaven, and served them.E si rivolse a rimettere in piedi i luoghi eccelsi rovinati da Ezechia suo padre, e alzò altari a Baal, e piantò dei boschetti, come avea fatto Achab re d'Israele, e adorò tutta la milizia del cielo, e le rendette onore.And he was turned, and built the excelses, which Ezechias his father had destroyed: and he sette vp altars to Baal, and made groues, as Achab the king of Israel had done: and he adored al the host of heauen, and worshipped it.Conversusque est, et ædificavit excelsa quæ dissipaverat Ezechias pater ejus: et erexit aras Baal, et fecit lucos sicut fecerat Achab rex Israël, et adoravit omnem militiam cæli, et coluit eam. 4And he built altars in the house of the Lord, of which the Lord said: In Jerusalem I will put my name.Ed eresse altari nella casa del Signore, per ragion della quale il Signore avea detto: Porrò il nome mio in Gerusalemme.And he built altars in the house of our Lord, of the which our Lord sayd: In Ierusalem I wil put my name.Exstruxitque aras in domo Domini, de qua dixit Dominus: In Jerusalem ponam nomen meum. 5And he built altars for all the host of heaven, in the two courts of the temple of the Lord.Ed eresse altari a tutta la milizia del cielo nei due atri del tempio del Signore.And he built altars to al the host of heauen in the two courtes of the temple of our Lord.Et exstruxit altaria universæ militiæ cæli in duobus atriis templi Domini.

6And he made his son pass through fire: and he used divinations, and observed omens, and appointed pythons, and multiplied soothsayers, to do evil before the Lord, and to provoke him.E fece passar pel fuoco il proprio figliuolo, e andò dietro agl'indozzamenti, e badò agli auguri, e istituì dei maghi, e moltiplicò gli aruspici facendo il male dinanzi al Signore, e provocandolo ad ira.And he made his sonne passe through fyre: and he vsed sooth saying, and obserued diuinations, and made pithones, and multiplied inchanters, to doe euil before our Lord, and to prouoke him.Et traduxit filium suum per ignem: et ariolatus est, et observavit auguria, et fecit pythones, et aruspices multiplicavit, ut faceret malum coram Domino, et irritaret eum. 7He set also an idol of the grove, which he had made, in the temple of the Lord: concerning which the Lord said to David, and to Solomon his son: In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever.Pose eziandio l'idolo del bosco piantato da lui, nel tempio del Signore, intorno al quale il Signore avea detto a Davidde, e a Salomone suo figliuolo: In questo tempio, e in Gerusalemme eletta tra tutte le tribù d'Israele, porrò dio il mio nome in sempiterno.He sette also the idol of the groue, which he had made in the temple of our Lord: concerning the which our Lord spake to Dauid, and to Salomon his sonne: In this temple, and in Ierusalem, which I haue chosen out of al the tribes of Israel, I wil put my name for euer.Posuit quoque idolum luci quem fecerat, in templo Domini, super quod locutus est Dominus ad David, et ad Salomonem filium ejus: In templo hoc, et in Jerusalem quam elegi de cunctis tribubus Israël, ponam nomen meum in sempiternum. 8And I will no more make the feet of Israel to be moved out of the land, which I gave to their fathers: only if they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, according to the law which my servant Moses commanded them.E non permetterò, che Israele abbia mai più a muovere il piede dalla terra data da me ai padri loro: se però eglino osserveranno tutti i miei comandamenti, e tutta la legge intimata ad essi da Mosè mio servoAnd I wil noe more make the foote of Israel to be moued out of the land, which I gaue to their fathers: yet so if in worke they shal keepe al things, that I haue commanded them, al the law which my seruantes Moyses commanded them.Et ultra non faciam commoveri pedem Israël de terra quam dedi patribus eorum: si tamen custodierint opere omnia quæ præcepi eis, et universam legem quam mandavit eis servus meus Moyses. 9But they hearkened not: but were seduced by Manasses, to do evil more than the nations which the Lord destroyed before the children of Israel.Ma quelli non ascoltarono; ma furon sedotti da Manasse per mal fare più, che non avean fatto le genti sterminate dal Signore alla venuta de' figliuoli d'Israele.But they heard not: but were seduced by Manasses, to doe euil aboue the Nations, which our Lord destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.Illi vero non audierunt: sed seducti sunt a Manasse, ut facerent malum super gentes quas contrivit Dominus a facie filiorum Israël.

10And the Lord spoke in the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:E il Signore parlò per bocca de' profeti suoi servi, e disse:And our Lord spake in the hand of his seruantes the prophetes, saying:Locutusque est Dominus in manu servorum suorum prophetarum, dicens: 11Because Manasses, king of Juda, hath done these most wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorrhites did before him, and hath made Juda also to sin with his filthy doings:Perchè Manasse re di Giuda ha commesse queste orrende abbominazioni, le quali passano tutto quello, che avanti a lui fecero gli Amorrei, e ha ancora indotto Giuda a prevaricare colle sue immondezze:Because Manasses the king of Iuda hath done these most wicked abominations, passing al thinges that the Amorrheites did before him, and hath made Iuda also to sinne in his filthes:Quia fecit Manasses rex Juda abominationes istas pessimas, super omnia quæ fecerunt Amorrhæi ante eum, et peccare fecit etiam Judam in immunditiis suis: 12Therefore thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel: Behold, I will bring on evils upon Jerusalem and Juda: that whosoever shall hear of them, both his ears shall tingle.Per questo così dice il Signore Dio d'Israele: Ecco che io pioverò tali sciagure sopra Gerusalemme, e sopra Giuda, che a chiunque ne udirà parlare fischieranno ambedue le orecchie.therfore thus sayth our Lord the God of Israel: Behold I wil bring in euils vpon Ierusalem and Iuda: that whosoeuer shal heare it, both his eares shal tingle.propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Ecce ego inducam mala super Jerusalem et Judam, ut quicumque audierit, tinniant ambæ aures ejus. 13And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I will efface Jerusalem, as writings tables are wont to be effaced, and I will erase and turn it, and draw the pencil often over the face thereof.E sopra Gerusalemme stenderò la corda, che stesi sopra Samaria, e il peso della casa di Achab; e ripulirò Gerusalemme come suol ripulirsi una tavoletta (da scrivere), e per ripulirla volgerò, e rivolgerò lo stile sopra di essa.And I wil stretch out vpon Ierusalem the corde of Samaria, and the weight of the house of Achab: and I wil wipe out Ierusalem, as tables are wont to be wiped out, and wyping out I wil turne it, and draw often the pencil vpon the face therof.Et extendam super Jerusalem funiculum Samariæ, et pondus domus Achab: et delebo Jerusalem, sicut deleri solent tabulæ: et delens vertam, et ducam crebrius stylum super faciem ejus.

14And I will leave the remnants of my inheritance, and will deliver them into the hands of their enemies: and they shall become a prey, and a spoil to all their enemies.E io lascerò in abbandono gli avanzi del mio retaggio, e li darò in potere de' lor nemici, e saranno spersi, e fatti preda di tutti i loro avversari;But I wil leaue remnantes of mine inheritance, and wil deliuer them into the handes of their enemies: and they shalbe vnto waste, and vnto spoile to al their aduersaries:Dimittam vero reliquias hæreditatis meæ, et tradam eas in manus inimicorum ejus, eruntque in vastitatem, et in rapinam cunctis adversariis suis: 15Because they have done evil before me, and have continued to provoke me, from the day that their fathers came out of Egypt, even unto this day.Perchè eglino han fatto il male dinanzi a me, e han continuato ad irritarmi dal giorno, in cui i padri loro uscirono dall'Egitto fino al di d'oggi;because they haue done euil before me, and haue continewed prouoking me, from the day that their fathers came out of Aegypt, vntil this day.eo quod fecerint malum coram me, et perseveraverint irritantes me, ex die qua egressi sunt patres eorum ex Ægypto usque ad hanc diem. 16Moreover, Manasses shed also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth: besides his sins, wherewith he made Juda to sin, to do evil before the Lord.Manasse di più sparse del sangue innocente senza misura, fino ad inondare Gerusalemme: senza contare i peccati, ch'ei fe' commettere a Giuda, facendo il male nel cospetto del Signore.Moreouer Manasses shed also innocent bloud exceding much til he filled Ierusalem euen to the mouth: beside his sinnes, wherin he made Iuda to sinne, to doe euil before our Lord.Insuper et sanguinem innoxium fudit Manasses multum nimis, donec impleret Jerusalem usque ad os: absque peccatis suis quibus peccare fecit Judam, ut faceret malum coram Domino. 17Now the rest of the acts of Manasses, and all that he did, and his sin, which he sinned, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?Il resto poi delle azioni di Manasse, e tutto quello, ch'ei fece, e il peccato, che egli commise, queste cose non son elleno scritte nel diario de' fatti dei re di Giuda?But the rest of the wordes of Manasses, and al that he did, and his sinne, which he sinned, are not these thinges written in the Booke of the wordes of the dayes of the kinges of Iuda?Reliqua autem sermonum Manasse, ut universa quæ fecit, et peccatum ejus quod peccavit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Juda ?

18And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Oza: and Amon, his son, reigned in his stead.E si addormentò Manasse coi padri suoi, e fu sepolto nell'orto di sua casa, nell'orto di Oza: e succedette a lui nel regno Amon suo figliuolo.And Manasses slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his house, in the garden of Oza: and Amon his sonne reigned for him.Dormivitque Manasses cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in horto domus suæ, in horto Oza: et regnavit Amon filius ejus pro eo. 19Two and twenty years old was Amon when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth, the daughter of Harus, of Jeteba.Ventidue anni aveva Amon quando principiò a regnare, e regnò due anni in Gerusalemme: sua madre ebbe nome Messalemeth figliuola di Harus di Jeteba.Two and twentie yeares old was Amon when he began to reigne: two yeares also he reigned in Ierusalem: the name of his mother was Messalemeth the daughter of Ieteba.Viginti duorum annorum erat Amon cum regnare cœpisset: duobus quoque annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Messalemeth filia Harus de Jeteba. 20And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, as Manasses, his father, had done.Ed egli fece il male nel cospetto del Signore, come avea fatto Manasse suo padre,And he did euil in the sight of our Lord, as Manasses his father had done.Fecitque malum in conspectu Domini, sicut fecerat Manasses pater ejus. 21And he walked in all the way in which his father had walked: and he served the abominations which his father had served, and he adored them.E imitò in tutto, e per tutto il padre suo, e servì agli idoli immondi, come avea servito il padre suo, e gli adorò.And he walked in al the way, by the which his father had walked: and he serued the filthes, which his father had serued, and he adored them,Et ambulavit in omni via per quam ambulaverat pater ejus, servivitque immunditiis quibus servierat pater ejus, et adoravit eas: 22And forsook the Lord, the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the Lord.E abbandonò il Signore Dio de' padri suoi, e non battè le vie del Signore.and forsooke our Lord the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of our Lord.et dereliquit Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et non ambulavit in via Domini. 23And his servants plotted against him, and slew the king in his own house.E i suoi servi gli tesero insidie, e uccisero il re in sua casa.And his seruantes lay in wayte agaynst him, and slewe the king in his house.Tetenderuntque ei insidias servi sui, et interfecerunt regem in domo sua.

24But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon: and made Josias, his son, their king in his stead.Ma il popolo del paese fece morire tutti quelli, che avean congiurato contro del re Amon, e dichiararono re in sua vece Josia suo figliuolo.But the people of the land stroke al them, that had conspired agaynst king Amon: and made Iosias his sonne their king for him.Percussit autem populus terræ omnes qui conjuraverant contra regem Amon, et constituerunt sibi regem Josiam filium ejus pro eo. 25But the rest of the acts of Amon, which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?Il resto poi delle azioni di Amon, non son elleno scritte nel diario de' fatti dei re di Giuda?But the rest of the wordes of Amon which he did, are not these writen in the Booke of the wordes of the dayes of the kinges of Iuda?Reliqua autem sermonum Amon quæ fecit, nonne hæc scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Juda ? 26And they buried him in his sepulchre, in the garden of Oza: and his son, Josias, reigned in his stead.Ed ei fu sepolto nella sua sepoltura, nell'orto di Oza: e Josia suo figliuolo gli succedette nel regno.And they buried him in his sepulchre, in the garden of Oza: and Iosias his sonne reigned for him.Sepelieruntque eum in sepulchro suo, in horto Oza: et regnavit Josias filius ejus pro eo.
