And HezekiahH3169 sentH7971 to all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063, and wroteH3789 lettersH107 also to EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, that they should comeH935 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 at JerusalemH3389, to keepH6213 the passoverH6453 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
For the kingH4428 had taken counselH3289, and his princesH8269, and all the congregationH6951 in JerusalemH3389, to keepH6213 the passoverH6453 in the secondH8145 monthH2320.
For they couldH3201 not keepH6213 it at that timeH6256, because the priestsH3548 had not sanctifiedH6942 themselves sufficientlyH4078+H1767, neither had the peopleH5971 gathered themselves togetherH622 to JerusalemH3389.
And the thingH1697 pleasedH3474+H5869 the kingH4428 and all the congregationH6951. {pleased…: Heb. was right in the eyes of the king}
So they establishedH5975 a decreeH1697 to make proclamationH5674+H6963 throughout all IsraelH3478, from BeershebaH884 even to DanH1835, that they should comeH935 to keepH6213 the passoverH6453 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 at JerusalemH3389: for they had not doneH6213 it of a longH7230 time in such sort as it was writtenH3789.
So the postsH7323 wentH3212 with the lettersH107 fromH3027 the kingH4428 and his princesH8269 throughout all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063, and according to the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428, sayingH559, Ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, turn againH7725 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and IsraelH3478, and he will returnH7725 to the remnantH7604 of you, that are escapedH6413 out of the handH3709 of the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804. {from: Heb. from the hand}
And be not ye like your fathersH1, and like your brethrenH251, which trespassedH4603 against the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, who therefore gave them upH5414 to desolationH8047, as ye seeH7200.
Now be ye not stiffneckedH7185+H6203, as your fathersH1 were, but yieldH5414 yourselvesH3027 unto the LORDH3068, and enterH935 into his sanctuaryH4720, which he hath sanctifiedH6942 for everH5769: and serveH5647 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that the fiercenessH2740 of his wrathH639 may turn awayH7725 from you. {be ye…: Heb. harden not your necks} {yield…: Heb. give the hand}
For if ye turn againH7725 unto the LORDH3068, your brethrenH251 and your childrenH1121 shall find compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them that lead them captiveH7617, so that they shall come againH7725 into this landH776: for the LORDH3068 your GodH430 is graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, and will not turn awayH5493 his faceH6440 from you, if ye returnH7725 unto him.
So the postsH7323 passedH5674 from cityH5892 to cityH5892 through the countryH776 of EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519 even unto ZebulunH2074: but they laughed them to scornH7832, and mockedH3932 them.
Nevertheless diversH582 of AsherH836 and ManassehH4519 and of ZebulunH2074 humbledH3665 themselves, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
Also in JudahH3063 the handH3027 of GodH430 was to giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820 to doH6213 the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 and of the princesH8269, by the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
In the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 at evenH6153 is the LORD'SH3068 passoverH6453.
Now they beganH2490 on the firstH259 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 to sanctifyH6942, and on the eighthH8083 dayH3117 of the monthH2320 cameH935 they to the porchH197 of the LORDH3068: so they sanctifiedH6942 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 in eightH8083 daysH3117; and in the sixteenthH8337+H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 they made an endH3615.
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, If anyH376 manH376 of you or of your posterityH1755 shall be uncleanH2931 by reason of a dead bodyH5315, or be in a journeyH1870 afar offH7350, yet he shall keepH6213 the passoverH6453 unto the LORDH3068.
The fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 of the secondH8145 monthH2320 at evenH6153 they shall keepH6213 it, and eatH398 it with unleavened breadH4682 and bitterH4844 herbs.
And HezekiahH3169 rejoicedH8055, and all the peopleH5971, that GodH430 had preparedH3559 the peopleH5971: for the thingH1697 was done suddenlyH6597.
In the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 at evenH6153 is the LORD'SH3068 passoverH6453.
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, If anyH376 manH376 of you or of your posterityH1755 shall be uncleanH2931 by reason of a dead bodyH5315, or be in a journeyH1870 afar offH7350, yet he shall keepH6213 the passoverH6453 unto the LORDH3068.
The fourteenthH702+H6240 dayH3117 of the secondH8145 monthH2320 at evenH6153 they shall keepH6213 it, and eatH398 it with unleavened breadH4682 and bitterH4844 herbs.
YeG846 alsoG2532, asG5613 livelyG2198 stonesG3037, are built upG3618 a spiritualG4152 houseG3624, an holyG40 priesthoodG2406, to offer upG399 spiritualG4152 sacrificesG2378, acceptableG2144 to GodG2316 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. {are: or, be ye}
But unto the placeH4725 which the LORDH3068 your GodH430 shall chooseH977 out of all your tribesH7626 to putH7760 his nameH8034 there, even unto his habitationH7933 shall ye seekH1875, and thither thou shalt comeH935:
And thither ye shall bringH935 your burnt offeringsH5930, and your sacrificesH2077, and your tithesH4643, and heave offeringsH8641 of your handH3027, and your vowsH5088, and your freewill offeringsH5071, and the firstlingsH1062 of your herdsH1241 and of your flocksH6629:
And ElijahH452 the TishbiteH8664, who was of the inhabitantsH8453 of GileadH1568, saidH559 unto AhabH256, As the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 livethH2416, beforeH6440 whom I standH5975, there shall not be dewH2919 nor rainH4306 these yearsH8141, but accordingH6310 to my wordH1697. {Elijah: Heb. Elijahu: Gr. Elias}
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto him, sayingH559,
GetH3212 thee hence, and turnH6437 thee eastwardH6924, and hideH5641 thyself by the brookH5158 CherithH3747, that is beforeH6440 JordanH3383.
And it shall be, that thou shalt drinkH8354 of the brookH5158; and I have commandedH6680 the ravensH6158 to feedH3557 thee there.
So he wentH3212 and didH6213 according unto the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: for he wentH3212 and dweltH3427 by the brookH5158 CherithH3747, that is beforeH6440 JordanH3383.
And the ravensH6158 broughtH935 him breadH3899 and fleshH1320 in the morningH1242, and breadH3899 and fleshH1320 in the eveningH6153; and he drankH8354 of the brookH5158.
And might not be as their fathersH1, a stubbornH5637 and rebelliousH4784 generationH1755; a generationH1755 that setH3559 not their heartH3820 arightH3559, and whose spiritH7307 was not stedfastH539 with GodH410. {that…: Heb. that prepared not their heart}
But turned backH5472, and dealt unfaithfullyH898 like their fathersH1: they were turned asideH2015 like a deceitfulH7423 bowH7198.
AndG2532 sent forthG649 hisG846 servantsG1401 to callG2564 them that were biddenG2564 toG1519 the weddingG1062: andG2532 they wouldG2309 notG3756 comeG2064.
AgainG3825, he sent forthG649 otherG243 servantsG1401, sayingG3004, TellG2036 them which are biddenG2564, BeholdG2400, I have preparedG2090 myG3450 dinnerG712: myG3450 oxenG5022 andG2532 my fatlingsG4619 are killedG2380, andG2532 all thingsG3956 are readyG2092: comeG1205 untoG1519 the marriageG1062.
ButG1161 they made light ofG272 it, and went their waysG565, oneG3303 toG1519 hisG2398 farmG68, anotherG1161 toG1519 hisG846 merchandiseG1711:
AndG1161 the remnantG3062 tookG2902 hisG846 servantsG1401, and entreated them spitefullyG5195, andG2532 slewG615 them.
ButG1161 when the kingG935 heardG191 thereof, he was wrothG3710: andG2532 he sent forthG3992 hisG846 armiesG4753, and destroyedG622 thoseG1565 murderersG5406, andG2532 burned upG1714 theirG846 cityG4172.
ThenG1161 said heG2036 unto himG846, A certainG5100 manG444 madeG4160 a greatG3173 supperG1173, andG2532 badeG2564 manyG4183:
AndG2532 sentG649 hisG846 servantG1401 at supperG1173 timeG5610 to sayG2036 to them that were biddenG2564, ComeG2064; forG3754 all thingsG3956 areG2076 nowG2235 readyG2092.
AndG2532 they allG3956 withG575 oneG3391 consent beganG756 to make excuseG3868. The firstG4413 saidG2036 unto himG846, I have boughtG59 a piece of groundG68, andG2532 I mustG2192 needsG318 goG1831 andG2532 seeG1492 itG846: I prayG2065 theeG4571 haveG2192 meG3165 excusedG3868.
AndG2532 anotherG2087 saidG2036, I have boughtG59 fiveG4002 yokeG2201 of oxenG1016, andG2532 I goG4198 to proveG1381 themG846: I prayG2065 theeG4571 haveG2192 meG3165 excusedG3868.
AndG2532 anotherG2087 saidG2036, I have marriedG1060 a wifeG1135, andG2532 thereforeG1223+G5124 I cannotG3756+G1410 comeG2064.
SoG2532 thatG1565 servantG1401 cameG3854, and shewedG518 hisG846 lordG2962 these thingsG5023. ThenG5119 the master of the houseG3617 being angryG3710 saidG2036 to hisG846 servantG1401, Go outG1831 quicklyG5030 intoG1519 the streetsG4113 andG2532 lanesG4505 of the cityG4172, andG2532 bring inG1521 hitherG5602 the poorG4434, andG2532 the maimedG376, andG2532 the haltG5560, andG2532 the blindG5185.
AndG2532 the servantG1401 saidG2036, LordG2962, it is doneG1096 asG5613 thou hast commandedG2004, andG2532 yetG2089 there isG2076 roomG5117.
AndG2532 the lordG2962 saidG2036 untoG4314 the servantG1401, Go outG1831 intoG1519 the highwaysG3598 andG2532 hedgesG5418, andG2532 compelG315 them to come inG1525, thatG2443 myG3450 houseG3624 may be filledG1072.
ForG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 noneG3762 of thoseG1565 menG435 whichG3588 were biddenG2564 shall tasteG1089 of myG3450 supperG1173.
AndG2532 someG3303 believedG3982 the things which were spokenG3004, andG1161 some believed notG569.
But when SanballatH5571 the HoroniteH2772, and TobiahH2900 the servantH5650, the AmmoniteH5984, and GeshemH1654 the ArabianH6163, heardH8085 it, they laughed us to scornH3932, and despisedH959 us, and saidH559, What is this thingH1697 that ye doH6213? will ye rebelH4775 against the kingH4428?
He saidG3004 unto themG846, Give placeG402: forG1063 the maidG2877 isG599 notG3756 deadG599, butG235 sleepethG2518. AndG2532 they laughedG2606 himG846 to scornG2606.
All they that seeH7200 me laugh me to scornH3932: they shoot outH6358 the lipH8193, they shakeH5128 the headH7218, saying, {shoot…: Heb. open}
AndG1161 when they heardG191 of the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, someG3303 mockedG5512: andG1161 others saidG2036, We will hearG191 theeG4675 againG3825 ofG4012 thisG5127 matter.
AndG2532 there wasG2258 one AnnaG451, a prophetessG4398, the daughterG2364 of PhanuelG5323, ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of AserG768: sheG3778+G846 was of a greatG4183+G1722 ageG2250+G4260, and had livedG2198 withG3326 an husbandG435 sevenG2033 yearsG2094 fromG575 herG846 virginityG3932;
WithG3326 allG3956 lowlinessG5012 andG2532 meeknessG4236, withG3326 longsufferingG3115, forbearingG430 one anotherG240 inG1722 loveG26;
EndeavouringG4704 to keepG5083 the unityG1775 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 the bondG4886 of peaceG1515.
