H2977
Josiah
H6213
kept
H6453
a Passover
H3068
to Yahweh
H3389
in Jerusalem:
H7819
and they killed
H6453
the Passover
H702
on the fourteenth
H7223
day of the first
H2320
month.
2
H5975
He set
H3548
the priests
H4931
in their offices,
H2388
and encouraged
H5656
them to the service
H1004
of the house
H3068
of Yahweh.
3
H559
He said
H3881
to the Levites
H995
who taught
H3478
all Israel,
H6918
who were holy
H3068
to Yahweh,
H5414
"Put
H6944
the holy
H727
ark
H1004
in the house
H8010
which Solomon
H1121
the son
H1732
of David
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H1129
built.
H4853
There shall no more be a burden
H3802
on your shoulders.
H5647
Now serve
H3068
Yahweh
H430
your God,
H5971
and his people
H3478
Israel.
4
H3559
Prepare
H1
yourselves after your fathers'
H1004
houses
H4256
by your divisions,
H3791
according to the writing
H1732
of David
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel,
H4385
and according to the writing
H8010
of Solomon
H1121
his son.
5
H5975
Stand in
H6944
the holy
H6391
place according to the divisions
H1
of the fathers'
H1004
houses
H251
of your brothers
H1121
the children of the people,
H2515
and let there be for each a portion
H1
of a fathers'
H3881
house of the Levites.
6
H7819
Kill
H6453
the Passover,
H6942
and sanctify
H3559
yourselves, and prepare
H251
for your brothers,
H6213
to do
H1697
according to the word
H3068
of Yahweh
H3027
by
H4872
Moses."
7
H2977
Josiah
H7311
gave
H1121
to the children of the people,
H6629
of the flock,
H3532
lambs
H1121
and young goats,
H6453
all of them for the Passover offerings,
H4672
to all who were present,
H4557
to the number
H7970
of thirty
H505
thousand,
H7969
and three
H505
thousand
H1241
bulls:
H4428
these were of the king's
H7399
substance.
8
H8269
His princes
H7311
gave
H5071
for a freewill offering
H5971
to the people,
H3548
to the priests,
H3881
and to the Levites.
H2518
Hilkiah
H2148
and Zechariah
H3171
and Jehiel,
H5057
the rulers
H1004
of the house
H430
of God,
H5414
gave
H3548
to the priests
H6453
for the Passover offerings
H505
two thousand
H8337
and six
H3967
hundred
H7969
small livestock, and three
H3967
hundred
H1241
head of cattle.
9
H3562
Conaniah
H8098
also, and Shemaiah
H5417
and Nethanel,
H251
his brothers,
H2811
and Hashabiah
H3273
and Jeiel
H3107
and Jozabad,
H8269
the chiefs
H3881
of the Levites,
H7311
gave
H3881
to the Levites
H6453
for the Passover offerings
H2568
five
H505
thousand
H2568
small livestock, and five
H3967
hundred
H1241
head of cattle.
10
H5656
So the service
H3559
was prepared,
H3548
and the priests
H5975
stood
H5977
in their place,
H3881
and the Levites
H4256
by their divisions,
H4428
according to the king's
H4687
commandment.
11
H7819
They killed
H6453
the Passover,
H3548
and the priests
H2236
sprinkled
H3027
the blood which they received of their hand,
H3881
and the Levites
H6584
flayed them.
12
H5493
They removed
H5930
the burnt offerings,
H5414
that they might give
H4653
them according to the divisions
H1
of the fathers'
H1121
houses of the children of the people,
H7126
to offer
H3068
to Yahweh,
H3789
as it is written
H5612
in the book
H4872
of Moses.
H1241
So they did with the cattle.
13
H1310
They roasted
H6453
the Passover
H784
with fire
H4941
according to the ordinance:
H6944
and the holy
H1310
offerings boiled
H5518
they in pots,
H1731
and in caldrons,
H6745
and in pans,
H7323
and carried them quickly
H1121
to all the children of the people.
14
H310
Afterward
H3559
they prepared
H3548
for themselves, and for the priests,
H3548
because the priests
H1121
the sons
H175
of Aaron
H5927
were busy with offering
H5927
the burnt offerings
H2459
and the fat
H3915
until night:
H3881
therefore the Levites
H3559
prepared
H3548
for themselves, and for the priests
H1121
the sons
H175
of Aaron.
15
H7891
The singers
H1121
the sons
H623
of Asaph
H4612
were in their place,
H4687
according to the commandment
H1732
of David,
H623
and Asaph,
H1968
and Heman,
H3038
and Jeduthun
H4428
the king's
H2374
seer;
H7778
and the porters
H8179
were at every gate:
H5493
they didn't need to depart
H5656
from their service;
H251
for their brothers
H3881
the Levites
H3559
prepared for them.
16
H5656
So all the service
H3068
of Yahweh
H3559
was prepared
H3117
the same day,
H6213
to keep
H6453
the Passover,
H5927
and to offer
H5930
burnt offerings
H4196
on the altar
H3068
of Yahweh,
H4687
according to the commandment
H4428
of king
H2977
Josiah.
17
H1121
The children
H3478
of Israel
H4672
who were present
H6213
kept
H6453
the Passover
H6256
at that time,
H2282
and the feast
H4682
of unleavened bread
H7651
seven
H3117
days.
18
H6453
There was no Passover
H3644
like
H6213
that kept
H3478
in Israel
H3117
from the days
H8050
of Samuel
H5030
the prophet;
H6213
neither did
H4428
any of the kings
H3478
of Israel
H6213
keep
H6453
such a Passover
H2977
as Josiah
H6213
kept,
H3548
and the priests,
H3881
and the Levites,
H3063
and all Judah
H3478
and Israel
H4672
who were present,
H3427
and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem.
19
H8083
In the eighteenth
H8141
year
H4438
of the reign
H2977
of Josiah
H6453
was this Passover
H6213
kept.
20
H310
After
H2977
all this, when Josiah
H3559
had prepared
H1004
the temple,
H5224
Neco
H4428
king
H4714
of Egypt
H5927
went up
H3898
to fight
H3751
against Carchemish
H6578
by the Euphrates:
H2977
and Josiah
H3318
went out
H7125
against him.
21
H7971
But he sent
H4397
ambassadors
H559
to him, saying,
H4428
"What have I to do with you, you king
H3063
of Judah?
H3117
I come not against you this day,
H1004
but against the house
H4421
with which I have war.
H430
God
H559
has commanded
H926
me to make haste.
H2308
Beware
H430
that it is God
H7843
who is with me, that he not destroy you."
22
H2977
Nevertheless Josiah
H5437
would not turn
H6440
his face
H2664
from him, but disguised
H3898
himself, that he might fight
H8085
with him, and didn't listen
H1697
to the words
H5224
of Neco
H6310
from the mouth
H430
of God,
H935
and came
H3898
to fight
H1237
in the valley
H4023
of Megiddo.
23
H3384
The archers
H3384
shot
H4428
at king
H2977
Josiah;
H4428
and the king
H559
said
H5650
to his servants,
H5674
"Take me away,
H3966
because I am seriously
H2470
wounded!"
24
H5650
So his servants
H5674
took
H4818
him out of the chariot,
H7392
and put
H4932
him in the second
H7393
chariot
H3212
that he had, and brought
H3389
him to Jerusalem;
H4191
and he died,
H6912
and was buried
H6913
in the tombs
H1
of his fathers.
H3063
All Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem
H56
mourned
H2977
for Josiah.
25
H3414
Jeremiah
H6969
lamented
H2977
for Josiah:
H7891
and all the singing men
H7891
and singing women
H559
spoke
H2977
of Josiah
H7015
in their lamentations
H3117
to this day;
H5414
and they made
H2706
them an ordinance
H3478
in Israel:
H3789
and behold, they are written
H7015
in the lamentations.
