| וישל֖ח המ֑לך ויאספ֣ו אל֔יו כל־זקנ֥י יהוד֖ה וירושלֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:1 And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem. |
| וי֣על המ֣לך בית־יהו֡ה וכל־א֣יש יהודה֩ וכל־ישב֨י ירושל֜ם את֗ו והכֽהנים֙ והנביא֔ים וכל־הע֖ם למקט֣ן ועד־גד֑ול ויקר֣א באזניה֗ם את־כל־דברי֙ ס֣פר הבר֔ית הנמצ֖א בב֥ית יהוֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:2 And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD. |
| ויעמ֣ד ה֠מלך עֽל־ה֨עמ֜וד ויכר֥ת אֽת־הבר֣ית׀ לפנ֣י יהו֗ה לל֜כת אח֤ר יהוה֙ ולשמ֨ר מצות֜יו ואת־עדות֤יו ואת־חקתיו֙ בכל־ל֣ב ובכל־נ֔פש להק֗ים את־דברי֙ הבר֣ית הז֔את הכתב֖ים על־הס֣פר הז֑ה ויעמ֥ד כל־הע֖ם בברֽית׃ | 2Kgs 23:3 And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant. |
| ויצ֣ו המ֡לך את־חלקיהו֩ הכה֨ן הגד֜ול ואת־כהנ֣י המשנה֘ ואת־שמר֣י הסף֒ להוציא֙ מהיכ֣ל יהו֔ה א֣ת כל־הכל֗ים הֽעשוים֙ לב֣על ולֽאשר֔ה ולכ֖ל צב֣א השמ֑ים וֽישרפ֞ם מח֤וץ לירושל֙ם֙ בשדמ֣ות קדר֔ון ונש֥א את־עפר֖ם בֽית־אֽל׃ | 2Kgs 23:4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Bethel. |
| והשב֣ית את־הכמר֗ים אש֤ר נֽתנו֙ מלכ֣י יהוד֔ה ויקט֤ר בבמות֙ בער֣י יהוד֔ה ומסב֖י ירושל֑ם ואת־הֽמקטר֣ים לב֗על לש֤מש וליר֙ח֙ ולמזל֔ות ולכ֖ל צב֥א השמֽים׃ | 2Kgs 23:5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven. |
| ויצ֣א את־האשרה֩ מב֨ית יהו֜ה מח֤וץ לירושל֙ם֙ אל־נ֣חל קדר֔ון וישר֥ף את֛ה בנ֥חל קדר֖ון וי֣דק לעפ֑ר וישלך֙ את־עפר֔ה על־ק֖בר בנ֥י העֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:6 And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people. |
| ויתץ֙ את־בת֣י הקדש֔ים אש֖ר בב֣ית יהו֑ה אש֣ר הנש֗ים ארג֥ות ש֛ם בת֖ים לאשרֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:7 And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove. |
| ויב֤א את־כל־הכֽהנים֙ מער֣י יהוד֔ה ויטמ֣א את־הבמ֗ות אש֤ר קטרו־ש֙מה֙ הכ֣הנ֔ים מג֖בע עד־בא֣ר ש֑בע ונת֞ץ את־במ֣ות השער֗ים אשר־פ֜תח ש֤ער יהוש֙ע֙ שר־הע֔יר אשֽר־על־שמ֥אול א֖יש בש֥ער העֽיר׃ | 2Kgs 23:8 And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the gate of the city. |
| א֗ך ל֤א יֽעלו֙ כהנ֣י הבמ֔ות אל־מזב֥ח יהו֖ה בירושל֑ם כ֛י אם־אכל֥ו מצ֖ות בת֥וך אחיהֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:9 Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren. |
| וטמ֣א את־הת֔פת אש֖ר בג֣י בן־הנ֑ם לבלת֗י להעב֨יר א֜יש את־בנ֧ו ואת־בת֛ו בא֖ש למֽלך׃ | 2Kgs 23:10 And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech. |
| וישב֣ת את־הסוס֗ים אש֣ר נתנו֩ מלכ֨י יהוד֤ה לש֙מש֙ מב֣א בית־יהו֔ה אל־לשכת֙ נתן־מ֣לך הסר֔יס אש֖ר בפרור֑ים ואת־מרכב֥ות הש֖מש שר֥ף באֽש׃ | 2Kgs 23:11 And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire. |
| ואֽת־הֽמזבח֡ות אש֣ר על־הגג֩ עלי֨ת אח֜ז אשר־עש֣ו׀ מלכ֣י יהוד֗ה ואת־הֽמזבחות֙ אשר־עש֣ה מנש֔ה בשת֛י חצר֥ות בית־יהו֖ה נת֣ץ המ֑לך וי֣רץ מש֔ם והשל֥יך את־עפר֖ם אל־נ֥חל קדרֽון׃ | 2Kgs 23:12 And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king beat down, and brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron. |
| וֽאת־הבמ֞ות אש֣ר׀ על־פנ֣י ירושל֗ם אשר֘ מימ֣ין להר־המשחית֒ אש֣ר ב֠נה שלמ֨ה מֽלך־ישרא֜ל לעשת֣רת׀ שק֣ץ צידנ֗ים ולכמוש֙ שק֣ץ מוא֔ב ולמלכ֖ם תועב֣ת בנֽי־עמ֑ון טמ֖א המֽלך׃ | 2Kgs 23:13 And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile. |
| ושבר֙ את־המצב֔ות ויכר֖ת את־האשר֑ים וימל֥א את־מקומ֖ם עצמ֥ות אדֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:14 And he brake in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men. |
| וג֨ם את־המזב֜ח אש֣ר בבֽית־א֗ל הבמה֙ אש֨ר עש֜ה ירבע֤ם בן־נבט֙ אש֣ר החט֣יא את־ישרא֔ל ג֣ם את־המזב֧ח הה֛וא ואת־הבמ֖ה נת֑ץ וישר֧ף את־הבמ֛ה הד֥ק לעפ֖ר ושר֥ף אשרֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:15 Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove. |
| וי֣פן יאשי֗הו וי֨רא את־הקבר֤ים אשר־שם֙ בה֔ר וישל֗ח ויק֤ח את־הֽעצמות֙ מן־הקבר֔ים וישר֥ף על־המזב֖ח וֽיטמא֑הו כדב֣ר יהו֗ה אש֤ר קרא֙ א֣יש האלה֔ים אש֣ר קר֔א את־הדבר֖ים האֽלה׃ | 2Kgs 23:16 And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words. |
| וי֕אמר מ֚ה הצי֣ון הל֔ז אש֖ר אנ֣י רא֑ה ויאמר֨ו אל֜יו אנש֣י הע֗יר הק֤בר איש־הֽאלהים֙ אשר־ב֣א מֽיהוד֔ה ויקר֗א את־הדבר֤ים הא֙לה֙ אש֣ר עש֔ית ע֖ל המזב֥ח בֽית־אֽל׃ | 2Kgs 23:17 Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Bethel. |
| וי֙אמר֙ הנ֣יחו ל֔ו א֖יש אל־ינ֣ע עצמת֑יו וֽימלטו֙ עצמת֔יו א֚ת עצמ֣ות הנב֔יא אשר־ב֖א משמרֽון׃ | 2Kgs 23:18 And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria. |
| וגם֩ את־כל־בת֨י הבמ֜ות אש֣ר׀ בער֣י שמר֗ון אש֨ר עש֜ו מלכ֤י ישראל֙ להכע֔יס הס֖יר יֽאשי֑הו וי֣עש לה֔ם ככל־הֽמעש֔ים אש֥ר עש֖ה בבֽית־אֽל׃ | 2Kgs 23:19 And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel. |
| ו֠יזבח את־כל־כהנ֨י הבמ֤ות אשר־שם֙ על־הֽמזבח֔ות וישר֛ף את־עצמ֥ות אד֖ם עליה֑ם וי֖שב ירושלֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:20 And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there upon the altars, and burned men's bones upon them, and returned to Jerusalem. |
| ויצ֤ו המ֙לך֙ את־כל־הע֣ם לאמ֔ר עש֣ו פ֔סח לֽיהו֖ה אלֽהיכ֑ם ככת֕וב ע֛ל ס֥פר הבר֖ית הזֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:21 And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto the LORD your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant. |
| כ֣י ל֤א נֽעשה֙ כפ֣סח הז֔ה מימי֙ הש֣פט֔ים אש֥ר שפט֖ו את־ישרא֑ל וכ֗ל ימ֛י מלכ֥י ישרא֖ל ומלכ֥י יהודֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:22 Surely there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah; |
| כ֗י אם־בשמנ֤ה עשרה֙ שנ֔ה למ֖לך יֽאשי֑הו נעש֞ה הפ֧סח הז֛ה ליהו֖ה בירושלֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:23 But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to the LORD in Jerusalem. |
| וג֣ם את־האב֣ות ואת־ה֠ידענים ואת־התרפ֨ים ואת־הגלל֜ים וא֣ת כל־השקצ֗ים אש֤ר נראו֙ בא֤רץ יהודה֙ וביר֣ושל֔ם בע֖ר יֽאשי֑הו ל֠מען הק֞ים את־דבר֤י התורה֙ הכתב֣ים על־הס֔פר אש֥ר מצ֛א חלקי֥הו הכה֖ן ב֥ית יהוֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:24 Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD. |
| וכמהו֩ לֽא־הי֨ה לפנ֜יו מ֗לך אשר־ש֤ב אל־יהוה֙ בכל־לבב֤ו ובכל־נפשו֙ ובכל־מאד֔ו ככ֖ל תור֣ת מש֑ה ואחר֖יו לֽא־ק֥ם כמֽהו׃ | 2Kgs 23:25 And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him. |
| א֣ך׀ לֽא־ש֣ב יהו֗ה מחר֤ון אפו֙ הגד֔ול אשר־חר֥ה אפ֖ו בֽיהוד֑ה ע֚ל כל־הכעס֔ים אש֥ר הכעיס֖ו מנשֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:26 Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal. |
| וי֣אמר יהו֗ה ג֤ם את־יהודה֙ אסיר֙ מע֣ל פנ֔י כאש֥ר הסר֖תי את־ישרא֑ל ו֠מאסתי את־הע֨יר הז֤את אשר־בח֙רתי֙ את־יר֣ושל֔ם ואת־הב֔ית אש֣ר אמ֔רתי יהי֥ה שמ֖י שֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:27 And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there. |
| וי֛תר דבר֥י יאשי֖הו וכל־אש֣ר עש֑ה הלא־ה֣ם כתוב֗ים על־ס֛פר דבר֥י הימ֖ים למלכ֥י יהודֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? |
| בימ֡יו עלה֩ פרע֨ה נכ֧ה מֽלך־מצר֛ים על־מ֥לך אש֖ור על־נהר־פר֑ת וי֨לך המ֤לך יאשי֙הו֙ לקראת֔ו וימית֙הו֙ במגד֔ו כראת֖ו אתֽו׃ | 2Kgs 23:29 In his days Pharaohnechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him. |
| וירכב֨הו עבד֥יו מת֙ ממגד֔ו ויבא֙הו֙ יר֣ושל֔ם וֽיקבר֖הו בקבֽרת֑ו ויק֣ח עם־הא֗רץ את־יהֽואחז֙ בן־י֣אשי֔הו וימשח֥ו את֛ו וימל֥יכו את֖ו ת֥חת אבֽיו׃ | 2Kgs 23:30 And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead. |
| בן־עשר֨ים ושל֤ש שנה֙ יהואח֣ז במלכ֔ו ושלש֣ה חדש֔ים מל֖ך בירושל֑ם וש֣ם אמ֔ו חמוט֥ל בֽת־ירמי֖הו מלבנֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:31 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. |
| וי֥עש הר֖ע בעינ֣י יהו֑ה ככ֥ל אשר־עש֖ו אבתֽיו׃ | 2Kgs 23:32 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done. |
| ויאסרהו֩ פרע֨ה נכ֤ה ברבלה֙ בא֣רץ חמ֔ת ממל֖ך בירושל֑ם ויתן־ע֙נש֙ על־הא֔רץ מא֥ה ככר־כ֖סף וככ֥ר זהֽב׃ | 2Kgs 23:33 And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold. |
| וימלך֩ פרע֨ה נכ֜ה את־אליק֣ים בן־יאשי֗הו ת֚חת יאשי֣הו אב֔יו ויס֥ב את־שמ֖ו יהויק֑ים ואת־יהואח֣ז לק֔ח ויב֥א מצר֖ים וי֥מת שֽם׃ | 2Kgs 23:34 And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there. |
| והכ֣סף והזה֗ב נת֤ן יהויקים֙ לפרע֔ה א֚ך הער֣יך את־הא֔רץ לת֥ת את־הכ֖סף על־פ֣י פרע֑ה א֣יש כערכ֗ו נג֞ש את־הכ֤סף ואת־הזהב֙ את־ע֣ם הא֔רץ לת֖ת לפרע֥ה נכֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:35 And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his taxation, to give it unto Pharaohnechoh. |
| בן־עשר֨ים וחמ֤ש שנ֨ה יהויק֣ים במלכ֔ו ואח֤ת עשרה֙ שנ֔ה מל֖ך בירושל֑ם וש֣ם אמ֔ו זבוד֥ה בת־פדי֖ה מן־רומֽה׃ | 2Kgs 23:36 Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah. |
| וי֥עש הר֖ע בעינ֣י יהו֑ה ככ֥ל אשר־עש֖ו אבתֽיו׃ | 2Kgs 23:37 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done. |
