וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לָהֶם לֹֽא-תָבִיאוּ אֶת-הַשִּׁבְיָה הֵנָּה כִּי לְאַשְׁמַת יְהוָה עָלֵינוּ אַתֶּם אֹֽמְרִים לְהֹסִיף עַל-חַטֹּאתֵנוּ וְעַל-אַשְׁמָתֵנוּ כִּֽי-רַבָּה אַשְׁמָה לָנוּ וַֽחֲרוֹן אָף עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD already, ye intend to add more to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.
וַיָּקֻמוּ הָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר-נִקְּבוּ בְשֵׁמוֹת וַיַּֽחֲזִיקוּ בַשִּׁבְיָה וְכָֽל-מַעֲרֻמֵּיהֶם הִלְבִּישׁוּ מִן-הַשָּׁלָל וַיַּלְבִּשֻׁם וַיַּנְעִלוּם וַיַּֽאֲכִלוּם וַיַּשְׁקוּם וַיְסֻכוּם וַיְנַֽהֲלוּם בַּֽחֲמֹרִים לְכָל-כּוֹשֵׁל וַיְבִיאוּם יְרֵחוֹ עִיר-הַתְּמָרִים אֵצֶל אֲחֵיהֶם וַיָּשׁוּבוּ שֹֽׁמְרֽוֹן׃
And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria.
וְעוֹד אֲדוֹמִים בָּאוּ וַיַּכּוּ בִֽיהוּדָה וַיִּשְׁבּוּ-שֶֽׁבִי׃
For again the Edomites had come and smitten Judah, and carried away captives.
וַיָּבֹא עָלָיו תִּלְּגַת פִּלְנְאֶסֶר מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיָּצַר לוֹ וְלֹא חֲזָקֽוֹ׃
And Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב אָחָז עִם-אֲבֹתָיו וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בָעִיר בִּירוּשָׁלִַם כִּי לֹא הֱבִיאֻהוּ לְקִבְרֵי מַלְכֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּמְלֹךְ יְחִזְקִיָּהֽוּ בְנוֹ תַּחְתָּֽיו׃
And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem: but they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the east street,
וַיַּֽאַסְפוּ אֶת-אֲחֵיהֶם וַיִּֽתְקַדְּשׁוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ כְמִצְוַת-הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּדִבְרֵי יְהוָה לְטַהֵר בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and came, according to the commandment of the king, by the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD.
וַיָּבֹאוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים לִפְנִימָה בֵית-יְהוָה לְטַהֵר וַיּוֹצִיאוּ אֵת כָּל-הַטֻּמְאָה אֲשֶׁר מָֽצְאוּ בְּהֵיכַל יְהוָה לַֽחֲצַר בֵּית יְהוָה וַֽיְקַבְּלוּ הַלְוִיִּם לְהוֹצִיא לְנַֽחַל-קִדְרוֹן חֽוּצָה׃
And the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of the LORD into the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad into the brook Kidron.
וַיָּחֵלּוּ בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ הָֽרִאשׁוֹן לְקַדֵּשׁ וּבְיוֹם שְׁמוֹנָה לַחֹדֶשׁ בָּאוּ לְאוּלָם יְהוָה וַיְקַדְּשׁוּ אֶת-בֵּית-יְהוָה לְיָמִים שְׁמוֹנָה וּבְיוֹם שִׁשָּׁה עָשָׂר לַחֹדֶשׁ הָֽרִאשׁוֹן כִּלּֽוּ׃
Now they began on the first day of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of the LORD: so they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days; and in the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end.
וַיָּבוֹאוּ פְנִימָה אֶל-חִזְקִיָּהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמְרוּ טִהַרְנוּ אֶת-כָּל-בֵּית יְהוָה אֶת-מִזְבַּח הָֽעוֹלָה וְאֶת-כָּל-כֵּלָיו וְאֶת-שֻׁלְחַן הַֽמַּעֲרֶכֶת וְאֶת-כָּל-כֵּלָֽיו׃
Then they went in to Hezekiah the king, and said, We have cleansed all the house of the LORD, and the altar of burnt offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread table, with all the vessels thereof.
וַיָּבִיאוּ פָרִים-שִׁבְעָה וְאֵילִים שִׁבְעָה וּכְבָשִׂים שִׁבְעָה וּצְפִירֵי עִזִּים שִׁבְעָה לְחַטָּאת עַל-הַמַּמְלָכָה וְעַל-הַמִּקְדָּשׁ וְעַל-יְהוּדָה וַיֹּאמֶר לִבְנֵי אַֽהֲרֹן הַכֹּהֲנִים לְהַֽעֲלוֹת עַל-מִזְבַּח יְהוָֽה׃
And they brought seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven lambs, and seven he goats, for a sin offering for the kingdom, and for the sanctuary, and for Judah. And he commanded the priests the sons of Aaron to offer them on the altar of the LORD.
וַיַּעַן יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ וַיֹּאמֶר עַתָּה מִלֵּאתֶם יֶדְכֶם לַֽיהוָה גֹּשׁוּ וְהָבִיאוּ זְבָחִים וְתוֹדוֹת לְבֵית יְהוָה וַיָּבִיאוּ הַקָּהָל זְבָחִים וְתוֹדוֹת וְכָל-נְדִיב לֵב עֹלֽוֹת׃
Then Hezekiah answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves unto the LORD, come near and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of the LORD. And the congregation brought in sacrifices and thank offerings; and as many as were of a free heart burnt offerings.
וַיְהִי מִסְפַּר הָֽעֹלָה אֲשֶׁר הֵבִיאוּ הַקָּהָל בָּקָר שִׁבְעִים אֵילִים מֵאָה כְּבָשִׂים מָאתָיִם לְעֹלָה לַֽיהוָה כָּל-אֵֽלֶּה׃
And the number of the burnt offerings, which the congregation brought, was threescore and ten bullocks, an hundred rams, and two hundred lambs: all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.
וַיִּשְׁלַח יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ עַל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וִֽיהוּדָה וְגַֽם-אִגְּרוֹת כָּתַב עַל-אֶפְרַיִם וּמְנַשֶּׁה לָבוֹא לְבֵית-יְהוָה בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם לַֽעֲשׂוֹת פֶּסַח לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel.
וַיַּֽעֲמִידוּ דָבָר לְהַֽעֲבִיר קוֹל בְּכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל מִבְּאֵֽר-שֶׁבַע וְעַד-דָּן לָבוֹא לַֽעֲשׂוֹת פֶּסַח לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם כִּי לֹא לָרֹב עָשׂוּ כַּכָּתֽוּב׃
So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beer-sheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the passover unto the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem: for they had not done it of a long time in such sort as it was written.
עַתָּה אַל-תַּקְשׁוּ עָרְפְּכֶם כַּאֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶם תְּנוּ-יָד לַֽיהוָה וּבֹאוּ לְמִקְדָּשׁוֹ אֲשֶׁר הִקְדִּישׁ לְעוֹלָם וְעִבְדוּ אֶת-יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם וְיָשֹׁב מִכֶּם חֲרוֹן אַפּֽוֹ׃
Now be ye not stiffnecked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves unto the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he hath sanctified for ever: and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you.
אַךְ-אֲנָשִׁים מֵֽאָשֵׁר וּמְנַשֶּׁה וּמִזְּבֻלוּן נִֽכְנְעוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ לִירֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
Nevertheless divers of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves, and came to Jerusalem.
וַיִּשְׁחֲטוּ הַפֶּסַח בְּאַרְבָּעָה עָשָׂר לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי וְהַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם נִכְלְמוּ וַיִּֽתְקַדְּשׁוּ וַיָּבִיאוּ עֹלוֹת בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
Then they killed the passover on the fourteenth day of the second month: and the priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought in the burnt offerings into the house of the LORD.
וַֽיִּשְׂמְחוּ׀ כָּל-קְהַל יְהוּדָה וְהַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם וְכָל-הַקָּהָל הַבָּאִים מִיִּשְׂרָאֵל וְהַגֵּרִים הַבָּאִים מֵאֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל וְהַיּֽוֹשְׁבִים בִּֽיהוּדָֽה׃
And all the congregation of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah, rejoiced.
וַיָּקֻמוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם וַיְבָרֲכוּ אֶת-הָעָם וַיִּשָּׁמַע בְּקוֹלָם וַתָּבוֹא תְפִלָּתָם לִמְעוֹן קָדְשׁוֹ לַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
Then the priests the Levites arose and blessed the people: and their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy dwelling place, even unto heaven.
וְכִפְרֹץ הַדָּבָר הִרְבּוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל רֵאשִׁית דָּגָן תִּירוֹשׁ וְיִצְהָר וּדְבַשׁ וְכֹל תְּבוּאַת שָׂדֶה וּמַעְשַׂר הַכֹּל לָרֹב הֵבִֽיאוּ׃
And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of corn, wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וִֽיהוּדָה הַיּֽוֹשְׁבִים בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָה גַּם-הֵם מַעְשַׂר בָּקָר וָצֹאן וּמַעְשַׂר קָֽדָשִׁים הַמְקֻדָּשִׁים לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם הֵבִיאוּ וַֽיִּתְּנוּ עֲרֵמוֹת עֲרֵמֽוֹת׃
And concerning the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the LORD their God, and laid them by heaps.
וַיָּבֹאוּ יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ וְהַשָּׂרִים וַיִּרְאוּ אֶת-הָֽעֲרֵמוֹת וַֽיְבָרֲכוּ אֶת-יְהוָה וְאֵת עַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And when Hezekiah and the princes came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD, and his people Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו עֲזַרְיָהוּ הַכֹּהֵן הָרֹאשׁ לְבֵית צָדוֹק וַיֹּאמֶר מֵֽהָחֵל הַתְּרוּמָה לָבִיא בֵית-יְהוָה אָכוֹל וְשָׂבוֹעַ וְהוֹתֵר עַד-לָרוֹב כִּי יְהוָה בֵּרַךְ אֶת-עַמּוֹ וְהַנּוֹתָר אֶת-הֶֽהָמוֹן הַזֶּֽה׃
And Azariah the chief priest of the house of Zadok answered him, and said, Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat, and have left plenty: for the LORD hath blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store.
וַיָּבִיאוּ אֶת-הַתְּרוּמָה וְהַֽמַּעֲשֵׂר וְהַקֳּדָשִׁים בֶּֽאֱמוּנָה וַֽעֲלֵיהֶם נָגִיד (כונניהו) כָּֽנַנְיָהוּ הַלֵּוִי וְשִׁמְעִי אָחִיהוּ מִשְׁנֶֽה׃
And brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: over which Cononiah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was the next.
מִלְּבַד הִתְיַחְשָׂם לִזְכָרִים מִבֶּן שָׁלוֹשׁ שָׁנִים וּלְמַעְלָה לְכָל-הַבָּא לְבֵית-יְהוָה לִדְבַר-יוֹם בְּיוֹמוֹ לַעֲבוֹדָתָם בְּמִשְׁמְרוֹתָם כְּמַחְלְקֽוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
Beside their genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even unto every one that entereth into the house of the LORD, his daily portion for their service in their charges according to their courses;
אַֽחֲרֵי הַדְּבָרִים וְהָֽאֱמֶת הָאֵלֶּה בָּא סַנְחֵרִיב מֶֽלֶךְ-אַשּׁוּר וַיָּבֹא בִֽיהוּדָה וַיִּחַן עַל-הֶֽעָרִים הַבְּצֻרוֹת וַיֹּאמֶר לְבִקְעָם אֵלָֽיו׃
After these things, and the establishment thereof, Sennacherib king of Assyria came, and entered into Judah, and encamped against the fenced cities, and thought to win them for himself.
וַיַּרְא יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ כִּי-בָא סַנְחֵרִיב וּפָנָיו לַמִּלְחָמָה עַל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And when Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib was come, and that he was purposed to fight against Jerusalem,
וַיִּקָּֽבְצוּ עַם-רָב וַֽיִּסְתְּמוּ אֶת-כָּל-הַמַּעְיָנוֹת וְאֶת-הַנַּחַל הַשּׁוֹטֵף בְּתוֹךְ-הָאָרֶץ לֵאמֹר לָמָּה יָבוֹאוּ מַלְכֵי אַשּׁוּר וּמָֽצְאוּ מַיִם רַבִּֽים׃
So there was gathered together, much people who stopped all the fountains, and the brook that ran through the midst of the land, saying, Why should the kings of Assyria come, and find much water?
וַיִּשְׁלַח יְהוָה מַלְאָךְ וַיַּכְחֵד כָּל-גִּבּוֹר חַיִל וְנָגִיד וְשָׂר בְּמַֽחֲנֵה מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיָּשָׁב בְּבֹשֶׁת פָּנִים לְאַרְצוֹ וַיָּבֹא בֵּית אֱלֹהָיו (ומיציאו) וּמִֽיצִיאֵי מֵעָיו שָׁם הִפִּילֻהוּ בֶחָֽרֶב׃
And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
וְרַבִּים מְבִיאִים מִנְחָה לַֽיהוָה לִירוּשָׁלִַם וּמִגְדָּנוֹת לִֽיחִזְקִיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה וַיִּנַּשֵּׂא לְעֵינֵי כָל-הַגּוֹיִם מֵאַֽחֲרֵי-כֵֽן׃
And many brought gifts unto the LORD to Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah: so that he was magnified in the sight of all nations from thenceforth.
וַיִּכָּנַע יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ בְּגֹבַהּ לִבּוֹ הוּא וְיוֹשְׁבֵי יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וְלֹא-בָא עֲלֵיהֶם קֶצֶף יְהוָה בִּימֵי יְחִזְקִיָּֽהוּ׃
Hezekiah Notwithstanding humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
וַיָּבֵא יְהוָה עֲלֵיהֶם אֶת-שָׂרֵי הַצָּבָא אֲשֶׁר לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיִּלְכְּדוּ אֶת-מְנַשֶּׁה בַּֽחֹחִים וַיַּֽאַסְרֻהוּ בַּֽנְחֻשְׁתַּיִם וַיּֽוֹלִיכֻהוּ בָּבֶֽלָה׃
Wherefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
וְאַֽחֲרֵי-כֵן בָּנָה חוֹמָה חִֽיצוֹנָה׀ לְעִיר-דָּוִיד מַעְרָבָה לְגִיחוֹן בַּנַּחַל וְלָבוֹא בְשַׁעַר הַדָּגִים וְסָבַב לָעֹפֶל וַיַּגְבִּיהֶהָ מְאֹד וַיָּשֶׂם שָֽׂרֵי-חַיִל בְּכָל-הֶֽעָרִים הַבְּצֻרוֹת בִּֽיהוּדָֽה׃
Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-חִלְקִיָּהוּ׀ הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדוֹל וַֽיִּתְּנוּ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַמּוּבָא בֵית-אֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר אָסְפֽוּ-הַלְוִיִּם שֹֽׁמְרֵי הַסַּף מִיַּד מְנַשֶּׁה וְאֶפְרַיִם וּמִכֹּל שְׁאֵרִית יִשְׂרָאֵל וּמִכָּל-יְהוּדָה וּבִנְיָמִן (וישבי) וַיָּשֻׁבוּ יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem.
וּבְהֽוֹצִיאָם אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַמּוּבָא בֵּית יְהוָה מָצָא חִלְקִיָּהוּ הַכֹּהֵן אֶת-סֵפֶר תּֽוֹרַת-יְהוָה בְּיַד-מֹשֶֽׁה׃
And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the LORD, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of the LORD given by Moses.
וַיָּבֵא שָׁפָן אֶת-הַסֵּפֶר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיָּשֶׁב עוֹד אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּבָר לֵאמֹר כֹּל אֲשֶׁר-נִתַּן בְּיַד-עֲבָדֶיךָ הֵם עֹשִֽׂים׃
And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they do it.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הִנְנִי מֵבִיא רָעָה עַל-הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְעַל-יֽוֹשְׁבָיו אֵת כָּל-הָֽאָלוֹת הַכְּתוּבוֹת עַל-הַסֵּפֶר אֲשֶׁר קָֽרְאוּ לִפְנֵי מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah:
הִנְנִי אֹֽסִפְךָ אֶל-אֲבֹתֶיךָ וְנֶֽאֱסַפְתָּ אֶל-קִבְרוֹתֶיךָ בְּשָׁלוֹם וְלֹֽא-תִרְאֶינָה עֵינֶיךָ בְּכֹל הָֽרָעָה אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי מֵבִיא עַל-הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְעַל-יֹֽשְׁבָיו וַיָּשִׁיבוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּבָֽר׃
Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.
וְלֹֽא-הֵסֵב יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ פָנָיו מִמֶּנּוּ כִּי לְהִלָּחֵֽם-בּוֹ הִתְחַפֵּשׂ וְלֹא שָׁמַע אֶל-דִּבְרֵי נְכוֹ מִפִּי אֱלֹהִים וַיָּבֹא לְהִלָּחֵם בְּבִקְעַת מְגִדּֽוֹ׃
Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and hearkened not unto the words of Necho from the mouth of God, and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.
וַיַּמְלֵךְ מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם אֶת-אֶלְיָקִים אָחִיו עַל-יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלִַם וַיַּסֵּב אֶת-שְׁמוֹ יְהֽוֹיָקִים וְאֶת-יֽוֹאָחָז אָחִיו לָקַח נְכוֹ וַיְבִיאֵהוּ מִצְרָֽיְמָה׃
And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and turned his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
וּמִכְּלֵי בֵּית יְהוָה הֵבִיא נְבֽוּכַדְנֶאצַּר לְבָבֶל וַיִּתְּנֵם בְּהֵֽיכָלוֹ בְּבָבֶֽל׃
Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of the LORD to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
וְלִתְשׁוּבַת הַשָּׁנָה שָׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ נְבֽוּכַדְנֶאצַּר וַיְבִאֵהוּ בָבֶלָה עִם-כְּלֵי חֶמְדַּת בֵּית-יְהוָה וַיַּמְלֵךְ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ אָחִיו עַל-יְהוּדָה וִירֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And when the year was expired, king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of the LORD, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
וְכֹל כְּלֵי בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים הַגְּדֹלִים וְהַקְּטַנִּים וְאֹֽצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָה וְאֹֽצְרוֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ וְשָׂרָיו הַכֹּל הֵבִיא בָבֶֽל׃
And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all these he brought to Babylon.
אֲשֶׁר-בָּאוּ עִם-זְרֻבָּבֶל יֵשׁוּעַ נְחֶמְיָה שְׂרָיָה רְֽעֵלָיָה מָרְדֳּכַי בִּלְשָׁן מִסְפָּר בִּגְוַי רְחוּם בַּֽעֲנָה מִסְפַּר אַנְשֵׁי עַם יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Which came with Zerubbabel: Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, Baanah. The number of the men of the people of Israel:
וּמֵֽרָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת בְּבוֹאָם לְבֵית יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם הִֽתְנַדְּבוּ לְבֵית הָֽאֱלֹהִים לְהַֽעֲמִידוֹ עַל-מְכוֹנֽוֹ׃
And some of the chief of the fathers, when they came to the house of the LORD which is at Jerusalem, offered freely for the house of God to set it up in his place:
וַיִּתְּנוּ-כֶסֶף לַחֹֽצְבִים וְלֶחָֽרָשִׁים וּמַֽאֲכָל וּמִשְׁתֶּה וָשֶׁמֶן לַצִּֽדֹנִים וְלַצֹּרִים לְהָבִיא עֲצֵי אֲרָזִים מִן-הַלְּבָנוֹן אֶל-יָם יָפוֹא כְּרִשְׁיוֹן כּוֹרֶשׁ מֶֽלֶךְ-פָּרַס עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Zidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia.
וּבַשָּׁנָה הַשֵּׁנִית לְבוֹאָם אֶל-בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים לִירוּשָׁלִַם בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי הֵחֵלּוּ זְרֻבָּבֶל בֶּן-שְׁאַלְתִּיאֵל וְיֵשׁוּעַ בֶּן-יֽוֹצָדָק וּשְׁאָר אֲחֵיהֶם׀ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם וְכָל-הַבָּאִים מֵֽהַשְּׁבִי יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם וַיַּֽעֲמִידוּ אֶת-הַלְוִיִּם מִבֶּן עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וָמַעְלָה לְנַצֵּחַ עַל-מְלֶאכֶת בֵּית-יְהוָֽה׃
Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the LORD.
וַיָּבֹא יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַֽחֲמִישִׁי הִיא שְׁנַת הַשְּׁבִיעִית לַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.
כִּי בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ הָֽרִאשׁוֹן הוּא יְסֻד הַֽמַּעֲלָה מִבָּבֶל וּבְאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ הַֽחֲמִישִׁי בָּא אֶל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם כְּיַד-אֱלֹהָיו הַטּוֹבָה עָלָֽיו׃
For upon the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him.
וָֽאֶקְבְּצֵם אֶל-הַנָּהָר הַבָּא אֶֽל-אַהֲוָא וַנַּֽחֲנֶה שָׁם יָמִים שְׁלֹשָׁה וָֽאָבִינָה בָעָם וּבַכֹּהֲנִים וּמִבְּנֵי לֵוִי לֹֽא-מָצָאתִי שָֽׁם׃
And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there abode we in tents three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
(ואוצאה) וָאֲצַוֶּה אוֹתָם עַל-אִדּוֹ הָרֹאשׁ בְּכָֽסִפְיָא הַמָּקוֹם וָֽאָשִׂימָה בְּפִיהֶם דְּבָרִים לְדַבֵּר אֶל-אִדּוֹ אָחִיו (הנתונים) הַנְּתִינִים בְּכָֽסִפְיָא הַמָּקוֹם לְהָֽבִיא-לָנוּ מְשָֽׁרְתִים לְבֵית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
And I sent them with commandment unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.
וַיָּבִיאּוּ לָנוּ כְּיַד-אֱלֹהֵינוּ הַטּוֹבָה עָלֵינוּ אִישׁ שֶׂכֶל מִבְּנֵי מַחְלִי בֶּן-לֵוִי בֶּן-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְשֵׁרֵבְיָה וּבָנָיו וְאֶחָיו שְׁמֹנָה עָשָֽׂר׃
And by the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;
וְקִבְּלוּ הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם מִשְׁקַל הַכֶּסֶף וְהַזָּהָב וְהַכֵּלִים לְהָבִיא לִירֽוּשָׁלִַם לְבֵית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
וַנָּבוֹא יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וַנֵּשֶׁב שָׁם יָמִים שְׁלֹשָֽׁה׃
And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
הַבָּאִים מֵֽהַשְּׁבִי בְנֵֽי-הַגּוֹלָה הִקְרִיבוּ עֹלוֹת׀ לֵֽאלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל פָּרִים שְׁנֵים-עָשָׂר עַל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֵילִים׀ תִּשְׁעִים וְשִׁשָּׁה כְּבָשִׂים שִׁבְעִים וְשִׁבְעָה צְפִירֵי חַטָּאת שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר הַכֹּל עוֹלָה לַֽיהוָֽה׃
Also the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the LORD.
אֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתָ בְּיַד עֲבָדֶיךָ הַנְּבִיאִים לֵאמֹר הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר אַתֶּם בָּאִים לְרִשְׁתָּהּ אֶרֶץ נִדָּה הִיא בְּנִדַּת עַמֵּי הָֽאֲרָצוֹת בְּתוֹעֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם אֲשֶׁר מִלְאוּהָ מִפֶּה אֶל-פֶּה בְּטֻמְאָתָֽם׃
Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
וְאַֽחֲרֵי כָּל-הַבָּא עָלֵינוּ בְּמַֽעֲשֵׂינוּ הָֽרָעִים וּבְאַשְׁמָתֵנוּ הַגְּדֹלָה כִּי׀ אַתָּה אֱלֹהֵינוּ חָשַׂכְתָּֽ לְמַטָּה מֵֽעֲוֹנֵנוּ וְנָתַתָּה לָּנוּ פְּלֵיטָה כָּזֹֽאת׃
And after all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that thou our God hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and hast given us such deliverance as this;
וְכֹל אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-יָבוֹא לִשְׁלֹשֶׁת הַיָּמִים כַּֽעֲצַת הַשָּׂרִים וְהַזְּקֵנִים יָֽחֳרַם כָּל-רְכוּשׁוֹ וְהוּא יִבָּדֵל מִקְּהַל הַגּוֹלָֽה׃
And that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be forfeited, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away.
יַֽעֲמְדוּ-נָא שָׂרֵינוּ לְֽכָל-הַקָּהָל וְכֹל׀ אֲשֶׁר בֶּֽעָרֵינוּ הַֽהֹשִׁיב נָשִׁים נָכְרִיּוֹת יָבֹא לְעִתִּים מְזֻמָּנִים וְעִמָּהֶם זִקְנֵי-עִיר וָעִיר וְשֹֽׁפְטֶיהָ עַד לְהָשִׁיב חֲרוֹן אַף-אֱלֹהֵינוּ מִמֶּנּוּ עַד לַדָּבָר הַזֶּֽה׃
Let now our rulers of all the congregation stand, and let all them which have taken strange wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us.
וַיָּבֹא חֲנָנִי אֶחָד מֵֽאַחַי הוּא וַֽאֲנָשִׁים מִֽיהוּדָה וָֽאֶשְׁאָלֵם עַל-הַיְּהוּדִים הַפְּלֵיטָה אֲשֶֽׁר-נִשְׁאֲרוּ מִן-הַשֶּׁבִי וְעַל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
That Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.
וְשַׁבְתֶּם אֵלַי וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם מִצְוֹתַי וַֽעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם אִם-יִֽהְיֶה נִֽדַּחֲכֶם בִּקְצֵה הַשָּׁמַיִם מִשָּׁם אֲקַבְּצֵם (והבואתים) וַהֲבִֽיאוֹתִים אֶל-הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר בָּחַרְתִּי לְשַׁכֵּן אֶת-שְׁמִי שָֽׁם׃
But if ye turn unto me, and keep my commandments, and do them; though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heaven, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there.
וָֽאוֹמַר לַמֶּלֶךְ אִם-עַל-הַמֶּלֶךְ טוֹב אִגְּרוֹת יִתְּנוּ-לִי עַֽל-פַּחֲווֹת עֵבֶר הַנָּהָר אֲשֶׁר יַֽעֲבִירוּנִי עַד אֲשֶׁר-אָבוֹא אֶל-יְהוּדָֽה׃
Moreover I said unto the king, If it please the king, let letters be given me to the governors beyond the river, that they may convey me over till I come into Judah;
וְאִגֶּרֶת אֶל-אָסָף שֹׁמֵר הַפַּרְדֵּס אֲשֶׁר לַמֶּלֶךְ אֲשֶׁר יִתֶּן-לִי עֵצִים לְקָרוֹת אֶת-שַֽׁעֲרֵי הַבִּירָה אֲשֶׁר-לַבַּיִת וּלְחוֹמַת הָעִיר וְלַבַּיִת אֲשֶׁר-אָבוֹא אֵלָיו וַיִּתֶּן-לִי הַמֶּלֶךְ כְּיַד-אֱלֹהַי הַטּוֹבָה עָלָֽי׃
And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which appertained to the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me.
וָֽאָבוֹא אֶֽל-פַּֽחֲווֹת עֵבֶר הַנָּהָר וָֽאֶתְּנָה לָהֶם אֵת אִגְּרוֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיִּשְׁלַח עִמִּי הַמֶּלֶךְ שָׂרֵי חַיִל וּפָֽרָשִֽׁים׃
Then I came to the governors beyond the river, and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent captains of the army and horsemen with me.
וַיִּשְׁמַע סַנְבַלַּט הַחֹֽרֹנִי וְטֽוֹבִיָּה הָעֶבֶד הָֽעַמֹּנִי וַיֵּרַע לָהֶם רָעָה גְדֹלָה אֲשֶׁר-בָּא אָדָם לְבַקֵּשׁ טוֹבָה לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
When Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, heard of it, it grieved them exceedingly that there was come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel.
וָֽאָבוֹא אֶל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וָֽאֱהִי-שָׁם יָמִים שְׁלֹשָֽׁה׃
So I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days.
וָֽאֱהִי עֹלֶה בַנַּחַל לַיְלָה וָֽאֱהִי שֹׂבֵר בַּֽחוֹמָה וָֽאָשׁוּב וָֽאָבוֹא בְּשַׁעַר הַגַּיְא וָֽאָשֽׁוּב׃
Then went I up in the night by the brook, and viewed the wall, and turned back, and entered by the gate of the valley, and so returned.
וְעַל-יָדָם הֶֽחֱזִיקוּ הַתְּקוֹעִים וְאַדִּֽירֵיהֶם לֹֽא-הֵבִיאוּ צַוָּרָם בַּֽעֲבֹדַת אֲדֹֽנֵיהֶֽם׃
And next unto them the Tekoites repaired; but their nobles put not their necks to the work of their Lord.
וַיִּקְשְׁרוּ כֻלָּם יַחְדָּו לָבוֹא לְהִלָּחֵם בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וְלַֽעֲשׂוֹת לוֹ תּוֹעָֽה׃
And conspired all of them together to come and to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ צָרֵינוּ לֹא יֵֽדְעוּ וְלֹא יִרְאוּ עַד אֲשֶׁר-נָבוֹא אֶל-תּוֹכָם וַֽהֲרַגְנוּם וְהִשְׁבַּתְנוּ אֶת-הַמְּלָאכָֽה׃
And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come in the midst among them, and slay them, and cause the work to cease.
וַֽיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר-בָּאוּ הַיְּהוּדִים הַיֹּֽשְׁבִים אֶצְלָם וַיֹּאמְרוּ לָנוּ עֶשֶׂר פְּעָמִים מִכָּל-הַמְּקֹמוֹת אֲשֶׁר-תָּשׁוּבוּ עָלֵֽינוּ׃
And it came to pass, that when the Jews which dwelt by them came, they said unto us ten times, From all places whence ye shall return unto us they will be upon you.
וְהַיְּהוּדִים וְהַסְּגָנִים מֵאָה וַֽחֲמִשִּׁים אִישׁ וְהַבָּאִים אֵלֵינוּ מִן-הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר-סְבִֽיבֹתֵינוּ עַל-שֻׁלְחָנִֽי׃
Moreover there were at my table an hundred and fifty of the Jews and rulers, beside those that came unto us from among the heathen that are about us.
וַֽאֲנִי-בָאתִי בֵּית שְֽׁמַֽעְיָה בֶן-דְּלָיָה בֶּן-מְהֵֽיטַבְאֵל וְהוּא עָצוּר וַיֹּאמֶר נִוָּעֵד אֶל-בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶל-תּוֹךְ הַֽהֵיכָל וְנִסְגְּרָה דַּלְתוֹת הַֽהֵיכָל כִּי בָּאִים לְהָרְגֶךָ וְלַיְלָה בָּאִים לְהָרְגֶֽךָ׃
Afterward I came unto the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who was shut up; and he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple: for they will come to slay thee; yea, in the night will they come to slay thee.
וָאֹֽמְרָה הַאִישׁ כָּמוֹנִי יִבְרָח וּמִי כָמוֹנִי אֲשֶׁר-יָבוֹא אֶל-הַֽהֵיכָל וָחָי לֹא אָבֽוֹא׃
And I said, Should such as I a man flee? and who that, is there, being as I am, would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in.
גַּם׀ בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם מַרְבִּים חֹרֵי יְהוּדָה אִגְּרֹתֵיהֶם הֽוֹלְכוֹת עַל-טֽוֹבִיָּה וַֽאֲשֶׁר לְטֽוֹבִיָּה בָּאוֹת אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters unto Tobiah, and the letters of Tobiah came unto them.
הַבָּאִים עִם-זְרֻבָּבֶל יֵשׁוּעַ נְחֶמְיָה עֲזַרְיָה רַֽעַמְיָה נַֽחֲמָנִי מָרְדֳּכַי בִּלְשָׁן מִסְפֶּרֶת בִּגְוַי נְחוּם בַּֽעֲנָה מִסְפַּר אַנְשֵׁי עַם יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the people of Israel was this;
וַיֵּאָֽסְפוּ כָל-הָעָם כְּאִישׁ אֶחָד אֶל-הָרְחוֹב אֲשֶׁר לִפְנֵי שַֽׁעַר-הַמָּיִם וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לְעֶזְרָא הַסֹּפֵר לְהָבִיא אֶת-סֵפֶר תּוֹרַת מֹשֶׁה אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּה יְהוָה אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And all the people gathered themselves together as one man into the street that was before the water gate; and they spake unto Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
וַיָּבִיא עֶזְרָא הַכֹּהֵן אֶֽת-הַתּוֹרָה לִפְנֵי הַקָּהָל מֵאִישׁ וְעַד-אִשָּׁה וְכֹל מֵבִין לִשְׁמֹעַ בְּיוֹם אֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִֽי׃
And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.
וַֽאֲשֶׁר יַשְׁמִיעוּ וְיַֽעֲבִירוּ קוֹל בְּכָל-עָֽרֵיהֶם וּבִירֽוּשָׁלִַם לֵאמֹר צְאוּ הָהָר וְהָבִיאוּ עֲלֵי-זַיִת וַֽעֲלֵי-עֵץ שֶׁמֶן וַֽעֲלֵי הֲדַס וַֽעֲלֵי תְמָרִים וַֽעֲלֵי עֵץ עָבֹת לַֽעֲשֹׂת סֻכֹּת כַּכָּתֽוּב׃
And that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth unto the mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
וַיֵּֽצְאוּ הָעָם וַיָּבִיאוּ וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ לָהֶם סֻכּוֹת אִישׁ עַל-גַּגּוֹ וּבְחַצְרֹתֵיהֶם וּבְחַצְרוֹת בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִים וּבִרְחוֹב שַׁעַר הַמַּיִם וּבִרְחוֹב שַׁעַר אֶפְרָֽיִם׃
So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
וְלֶחֶם מִשָּׁמַיִם נָתַתָּה לָהֶם לִרְעָבָם וּמַיִם מִסֶּלַע הוֹצֵאתָ לָהֶם לִצְמָאָם וַתֹּאמֶר לָהֶם לָבוֹא לָרֶשֶׁת אֶת-הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-נָשָׂאתָ אֶת-יָֽדְךָ לָתֵת לָהֶֽם׃
And gavest them bread from heaven for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them.
וּבְנֵיהֶם הִרְבִּיתָ כְּכֹֽכְבֵי הַשָּׁמָיִם וַתְּבִיאֵם אֶל-הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-אָמַרְתָּ לַאֲבֹֽתֵיהֶם לָבוֹא לָרָֽשֶׁת׃
Their children also multipliedst thou as the stars of heaven, and broughtest them into the land, concerning which thou hadst promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it.
וַיָּבֹאוּ הַבָּנִים וַיִּֽירְשׁוּ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ וַתַּכְנַע לִפְנֵיהֶם אֶת-יֹֽשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ הַכְּנַעֲנִים וַֽתִּתְּנֵם בְּיָדָם וְאֶת-מַלְכֵיהֶם וְאֶת-עַֽמְמֵי הָאָרֶץ לַֽעֲשׂוֹת בָּהֶם כִּרְצוֹנָֽם׃
So the children went in and possessed the land, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gavest them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.
וְאַתָּה צַדִּיק עַל כָּל-הַבָּא עָלֵינוּ כִּֽי-אֱמֶת עָשִׂיתָ וַֽאֲנַחְנוּ הִרְשָֽׁעְנוּ׃
Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:
מַֽחֲזִיקִים עַל-אֲחֵיהֶם אַדִּֽירֵיהֶם וּבָאִים בְּאָלָה וּבִשְׁבוּעָה לָלֶכֶת בְּתוֹרַת הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר נִתְּנָה בְּיַד מֹשֶׁה עֶֽבֶד-הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְלִשְׁמוֹר וְלַֽעֲשׂוֹת אֶת-כָּל-מִצְוֹת יְהוָה אֲדֹנֵינוּ וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו וְחֻקָּֽיו׃
They clave to their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and his judgments and his statutes;
וְעַמֵּי הָאָרֶץ הַֽמְבִיאִים אֶת-הַמַּקָּחוֹת וְכָל-שֶׁבֶר בְּיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת לִמְכּוֹר לֹֽא-נִקַּח מֵהֶם בַּשַּׁבָּת וּבְיוֹם קֹדֶשׁ וְנִטֹּשׁ אֶת-הַשָּׁנָה הַשְּׁבִיעִית וּמַשָּׁא כָל-יָֽד׃
And if the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day to sell, that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day: and that we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.
וְהַגּֽוֹרָלוֹת הִפַּלְנוּ עַל-קֻרְבַּן הָֽעֵצִים הַכֹּֽהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם וְהָעָם לְהָבִיא לְבֵית אֱלֹהֵינוּ לְבֵית-אֲבֹתֵינוּ לְעִתִּים מְזֻמָּנִים שָׁנָה בְשָׁנָה לְבַעֵר עַל-מִזְבַּח יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ כַּכָּתוּב בַּתּוֹרָֽה׃
And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, after the houses of our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of the LORD our God, as it is written in the law:
וּלְהָבִיא אֶת-בִּכּוּרֵי אַדְמָתֵנוּ וּבִכּוּרֵי כָּל-פְּרִי כָל-עֵץ שָׁנָה בְשָׁנָה לְבֵית יְהוָֽה׃
And to bring the firstfruits of our ground, and the firstfruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the LORD:
וְאֶת-בְּכֹרוֹת בָּנֵינוּ וּבְהֶמְתֵּינוּ כַּכָּתוּב בַּתּוֹרָה וְאֶת-בְּכוֹרֵי בְקָרֵינוּ וְצֹאנֵינוּ לְהָבִיא לְבֵית אֱלֹהֵינוּ לַכֹּהֲנִים הַמְשָֽׁרְתִים בְּבֵית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
Also the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is written in the law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God:
וְאֶת-רֵאשִׁית עֲרִֽיסֹתֵינוּ וּתְרֽוּמֹתֵינוּ וּפְרִי כָל-עֵץ תִּירוֹשׁ וְיִצְהָר נָבִיא לַכֹּֽהֲנִים אֶל-לִשְׁכוֹת בֵּית-אֱלֹהֵינוּ וּמַעְשַׂר אַדְמָתֵנוּ לַלְוִיִּם וְהֵם הַלְוִיִּם הַֽמְעַשְּׂרִים בְּכֹל עָרֵי עֲבֹֽדָתֵֽנוּ׃
And that we should bring the firstfruits of our dough, and our offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, to the chambers of the house of our God; and the tithes of our ground unto the Levites, that the same Levites might have the tithes in all the cities of our tillage.
כִּי אֶל-הַלְּשָׁכוֹת יָבִיאוּ בְנֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל וּבְנֵי הַלֵּוִי אֶת-תְּרוּמַת הַדָּגָן הַתִּירוֹשׁ וְהַיִּצְהָר וְשָׁם כְּלֵי הַמִּקְדָּשׁ וְהַכֹּֽהֲנִים הַמְשָׁרְתִים וְהַשּֽׁוֹעֲרִים וְהַמְשֹֽׁרְרִים וְלֹא נַֽעֲזֹב אֶת-בֵּית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, unto the chambers, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the porters, and the singers: and we will not forsake the house of our God.
וַיֵּֽשְׁבוּ שָׂרֵֽי-הָעָם בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וּשְׁאָר הָעָם הִפִּילוּ גֽוֹרָלוֹת לְהָבִיא׀ אֶחָד מִן-הָֽעֲשָׂרָה לָשֶׁבֶת בִּירֽוּשָׁלִַם עִיר הַקֹּדֶשׁ וְתֵשַׁע הַיָּדוֹת בֶּֽעָרִֽים׃
And the rulers of the people dwelt at Jerusalem: the rest of the people also cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem the holy city, and nine parts to dwell in other cities.
וּבַֽחֲנֻכַּת חוֹמַת יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם בִּקְשׁוּ אֶת-הַלְוִיִּם מִכָּל-מְקוֹמֹתָם לַֽהֲבִיאָם לִֽירוּשָׁלִָם לַֽעֲשֹׂת חֲנֻכָּה וְשִׂמְחָה וּבְתוֹדוֹת וּבְשִׁיר מְצִלְתַּיִם נְבָלִים וּבְכִנֹּרֽוֹת׃
And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, psalteries, and with harps.
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא נִקְרָא בְּסֵפֶר מֹשֶׁה בְּאָזְנֵי הָעָם וְנִמְצָא כָּתוּב בּוֹ אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-יָבוֹא עַמֹּנִי וּמֹאָבִי בִּקְהַל הָֽאֱלֹהִים עַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people; and therein was found written, that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever;
וּבְכָל-זֶה לֹא הָיִיתִי בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם כִּי בִּשְׁנַת שְׁלֹשִׁים וּשְׁתַּיִם לְאַרְתַּחְשַׁסְתְּא מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּאתִי אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וּלְקֵץ יָמִים נִשְׁאַלְתִּי מִן-הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
But in all this time was not I at Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon came I unto the king, and after certain days obtained I leave of the king:
וָֽאָבוֹא לִֽירוּשָׁלִָם וָֽאָבִינָה בָֽרָעָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה אֶלְיָשִׁיב לְטוֹבִיָּה לַֽעֲשׂוֹת לוֹ נִשְׁכָּה בְּחַצְרֵי בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And I came to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib did for Tobiah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God.
וְכָל-יְהוּדָה הֵבִיאוּ מַעְשַׂר הַדָּגָן וְהַתִּירוֹשׁ וְהַיִּצְהָר לָאֽוֹצָרֽוֹת׃
Then brought all Judah the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil unto the treasuries.
בַּיָּמִים הָהֵמָּה רָאִיתִי בִֽיהוּדָה׀ דֹּֽרְכִֽים-גִּתּוֹת׀ בַּשַּׁבָּת וּמְבִיאִים הָֽעֲרֵמוֹת וְֽעֹמְסִים עַל-הַֽחֲמֹרִים וְאַף-יַיִן עֲנָבִים וּתְאֵנִים וְכָל-מַשָּׂא וּמְבִיאִים יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם בְּיוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת וָֽאָעִיד בְּיוֹם מִכְרָם צָֽיִד׃
In those days saw I in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing sheaves, and lading asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all manner of burdens, which they brought in into Jerusalem on the sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day wherein they sold victuals.
וְהַצֹּרִים יָשְׁבוּ בָהּ מְבִיאִים דָּאג וְכָל-מֶכֶר וּמֹכְרִים בַּשַּׁבָּת לִבְנֵי יְהוּדָה וּבִירֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.
