2 Chronicles 35

2 Chronicles 35

1Moreover Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] kept a Passover unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] : and they killed the Passover on the fourteenth [day] of the first month.

2And he set the priests in their charges, and encouraged them to the service of the house of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) ,

3And said unto the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] that taught all Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] , which were holy unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , Put [a bow] the holy ark in the house which Shlomo (Solomon) [peace] the son of David [beloved] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] did build; [it shall] not [be] a burden upon [your] shoulders: serve now the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) your God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] , and his people Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] ,

4And prepare [yourselves] by the houses of your fathers, after your courses, according to the writing of David [beloved] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] , and according to the writing of Shlomo (Solomon) [peace] his son.

5And stand in the holy [place] according to the divisions of the families of the fathers of your brethren the people, and [after] the division of the families of the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] .

6So kill the Passover, and sanctify (make holy; set apart for God’s use) yourselves, and prepare your brethren, that [they] may do according to the word of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) by the hand of Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] .

7And Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] gave to the people, of the flock, lambs and kids, all for the Passover offerings, for all that were present, to the number of thirty thousand, and three thousand bullocks: these [were] of the king’s substance.

8And his princes gave willingly unto the people, to the priests, and to the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] : Hilkiyahu [my portion is Yehovah] and Z’kharyah [Yehovah remembers] and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] , gave unto the priests for the Passover offerings two thousand and six hundred [small cattle] , and three hundred oxen.

9Konanyah [Yehovah has established] also, and Sh’may’yah [Yehovah hears] and N’tan’el [God’s Gift] , his brethren, and Hashavyah [Yehovah has considered] and Ye’i’el [God sweeps away] and Yozavad [Yehovah has endowed] , chief of the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] , gave unto the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] for Passover offerings five thousand [small cattle] , and five hundred oxen.

10So the service was prepared, and the priests stood in their place, and the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] in their courses, according to the king’s commandment.

11And they killed the Passover, and the priests sprinkled [the blood] from their hands, and the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] flayed [them] .

12And they removed the burnt offerings, that they might give according to the divisions of the families of the people, to offer unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , as [it is] written in the book of Moshe [He Who Draws Out Of The Waters] . And so [did they] with the oxen.

13And they roasted the Passover with fire according to the ordinance: but the [other] holy [offerings] coocked (boiled) they in pots, and in caldrons, and in pans, and divided [them] speedily among all the people.

14And afterward they made ready for themselves, and for the priests: because the priests the sons of Aharon [Bright, Very High] [were busied] in offering of burnt offerings and the fat until night; therefore the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] prepared for themselves, and for the priests the sons of Aharon [Bright, Very High] .

15And the singers the sons of Asaf [gatherer] [were] in their place, according to the commandment of David [beloved] , and Asaf [gatherer] , and Heiman [faithful] , and Y’dutun [praising] the king’s seer; and the porters [waited] at every gate; they might not depart from their service; for their brethren the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] prepared for them.

16So all the service of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) was prepared the same day, to keep the Passover, and to offer burnt offerings upon the altar of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , according to the commandment of king Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] .

17And the people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] that were present kept the Passover at that time, and the feast of unleavened bread seven days.

18And there was no Passover like to that kept in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] from the days of Sh’mu’el [His name is El] the prophet; neither did all the kings of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] keep such a Passover as Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] kept, and the priests, and the Levi’im (Levites) [Joined to] , and all Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] that were present, and the inhabitants of Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] .

19In the eighteenth year of the reign of Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] was this Passover kept.

20After all this, when Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] had prepared the temple, N’kho [lame] king of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place] came up to fight against Kark’mish [fortress of Chemosh (subdue)] by Euphrates (to break forth, to gush) : and Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] went out against him.

21But he sent ambassadors to him, saying, What have I to do with youi , youi king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] ? [I come] not against youi this day, but against the house which I have war: for God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] commanded me to make haste: refrain (restrain; refrein from acting) youi from [meddling with] God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] , who [is] with me, that he destroy youi not.

22Nevertheless Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself, that he might fight with him, and listened not unto the words of N’kho [lame] from the mouth of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] , and came to fight in the valley of Megiddo [Place of Crowds] .

23And the archers shot at king Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] ; and the king said to his servants, Have me away; for I am sore wounded.

24His servants therefore took him out of that chariot, and put him in the second chariot that he had; and they brought him to Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] , and he died, and was buried in [one of] the sepulchres of his fathers. And all Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] and Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] mourned for Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] .

25And Yirmeyahu [whom Yehovah has appointed] lamented for Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] : and all the singing men and the singing women spoke of Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] in their lamentations to this day, and made them an ordinance in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] : and, behold, they [are] written in the lamentations.

26Now the rest of the acts of Yoshiyahu [whom Yehovah heals] , and his goodness, according to [that which was] written in the law of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) ,

27And his deeds, first and last, behold, they [are] written in the book of the kings of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] and Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] .
