曆代記下-2 Chronicles 第 15 章 |
15:1 | 神的靈臨到俄德的兒子亞撒利雅。 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded. |
15:2 | 他出來迎接亞撒,對他說,亞撒和猶大、便雅憫眾人哪,要聽我說,你們若順從耶和華,耶和華必與你們同在;你們若尋求祂,祂必被你們尋見;你們若離棄祂,祂必離棄你們。 And he went out to meet Asa and said to him, Hear me, Asa and all Judah and Benjamin: Jehovah is with you while you are with Him; and if you pursue Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you. |
15:3 | 以色列沒有真神,沒有訓誨的祭司,也沒有律法,已經許久了; Now for a long time Israel has been without the true God and without a teaching priest and without law. |
15:4 | 但他們在急難的時候歸向耶和華以色列的神,尋求祂,祂就被他們尋見。 But in their distress they turned to Jehovah the God of Israel and sought Him, and He was found by them. |
15:5 | 那時,出入的人不得平安,各地的居民都遭大亂; For in those times there was no peace to him who went out or to him who came in, for great afflictions were upon all the inhabitants of the lands. |
15:6 | 國攻擊國,城攻擊城,互相損毀,因為神用各樣災難擾亂他們。 For they were crushed, nation against nation and city against city, for God afflicted them with every distress. |
15:7 | 但你們要剛強,不要手軟,因你們所行的必得賞賜。 But you be strong and do not let your hands fail, for there is reward for your labor. |
15:8 | 亞撒聽見這些話,就是俄德兒子申言者亞撒利雅的申言,就壯起膽來,從猶大、便雅憫全地,並以法蓮山地所奪的各城,將可憎之物除掉,又把耶和華殿廊前耶和華的壇重新修築了。 And when Asa heard these words, that is, the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he strengthened himself and put away the detestable things from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities that he had taken in the hill country of Ephraim. And he restored the altar of Jehovah, which was before the portico of Jehovah. |
15:9 | 他又招聚猶大、便雅憫的眾人,並他們中間寄居的以法蓮人、瑪拿西人、西緬人;有許多以色列人歸降亞撒,因見耶和華他的神與他同在。 And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and the sojourners with them from Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon, for many from Israel threw in their lot with him when they saw that Jehovah his God was with him. |
15:10 | 亞撒作王第十五年三月,他們都聚集在耶路撒冷。 So they gathered themselves at Jerusalem in the third month in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa. |
15:11 | 當日他們從所取的掠物中,將牛七百隻、羊七千隻,獻給耶和華為祭。 And they sacrificed to Jehovah on that day from the spoil they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep. |
15:12 | 他們就立約,要全心全魂尋求耶和華他們列祖的神。 And they entered into a covenant to pursue Jehovah, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul, |
15:13 | 凡不尋求耶和華以色列神的,無論大小、男女,必被處死。 And covenanted that anyone who did not pursue Jehovah the God of Israel would be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. |
15:14 | 他們就大聲歡呼,吹號吹角,向耶和華起誓。 And they swore to Jehovah with a loud voice and with shouting and with trumpets and with horns. |
15:15 | 猶大眾人為所起的誓歡喜,因他們是全心起誓,全然樂意尋求耶和華;耶和華就被他們尋見,並且使他們四圍平靜。 And all Judah rejoiced over the oath, for with all their heart they swore and with all their desire they sought Him. And He was found by them, and Jehovah gave them rest all around. |
15:16 | 亞撒王又廢了他祖母瑪迦太後的位,因她為亞舍拉造了可憎的像。亞撒砍下她所造可憎的像,搗得粉碎,燒在汲淪溪邊。 And he also removed Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, from being queen mother because she had made for Asherah an abominable image; and Asa cut down her abominable image and crushed it to powder and burned it at the brook Kidron. |
15:17 | 但是邱壇還沒有從以色列中廢去;不過亞撒的心一生都純全的向著耶和華。 But the high places were not taken away from Israel; otherwise Asa's heart was perfect all his days. |
15:18 | 亞撒將他父親所分別為聖,與自己所分別為聖的金銀和器皿,都奉到神的殿裏。 And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had sanctified and that he had sanctified-silver and gold and vessels. |
15:19 | 從這時直到亞撒作王第三十五年,都沒有爭戰的事。 And there was no war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa's reign. |
