24 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

24 1Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.JOASH king of Judah. 2Chr.24.1-14 | 2Kgs.12.1-16בֶּן־שֶׁבַע שָׁנִים יֹאָשׁ בְּמָלְכֹו וְאַרְבָּעִים שָׁנָה מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וְשֵׁם אִמֹּו צִבְיָה מִבְּאֵר שָׁבַע׃
2And Joash did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh all the days of Jehoiada the priest. וַיַּעַשׂ יֹואָשׁ הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה כָּל־יְמֵי יְהֹויָדָע הַכֹּהֵן׃
3Jehoiada got for him two wives, and he had sons and daughters. וַיִּשָּׂא־לֹו יְהֹויָדָע נָשִׁים שְׁתָּיִם וַיֹּולֶד בָּנִים וּבָנֹות׃
4After this Joash decided to restore the house of Yahweh. וַיְהִי אַחֲרֵיכֵן הָיָה עִם־לֵב יֹואָשׁ לְחַדֵּשׁ אֶת־בֵּית יְהוָה׃
5And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year; and see that you hasten the matter." But the Levites did not hasten it. וַיִּקְבֹּץ אֶת־הַכֹּהֲנִים וְהַלְוִיִּם וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם צְאוּ לְעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וְקִבְצוּ מִכָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל כֶּסֶף לְחַזֵּק אֶת־בֵּית אֱלֹהֵיכֶם מִדֵּי שָׁנָה בְּשָׁנָה וְאַתֶּם תְּמַהֲרוּ לַדָּבָר וְלֹא מִהֲרוּ הַלְוִיִּם׃
6So the king summoned Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, "Why have you not required the Levites to bring in from Judah and Jerusalem the tax levied by Moses, the servant of Yahweh, on the congregation of Israel for the tent of testimony?" וַיִּקְרָא הַמֶּלֶךְ לִיהֹויָדָע הָרֹאשׁ וַיֹּאמֶר לֹו מַדּוּעַ לֹא־דָרַשְׁתָּ עַל־הַלְוִיִּם לְהָבִיא מִיהוּדָה וּמִירוּשָׁלִַם אֶת־מַשְׂאַת מֹשֶׁה עֶבֶד־יְהוָה וְהַקָּהָל לְיִשְׂרָאֵל לְאֹהֶל הָעֵדוּת׃
7For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken into the house of God; and had also used all the dedicated things of the house of Yahweh for the Baals. כִּי עֲתַלְיָהוּ הַמִּרְשַׁעַת בָּנֶיהָ פָרְצוּ אֶת־בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים וְגַם כָּל־קָדְשֵׁי בֵית־יְהוָה עָשׂוּ לַבְּעָלִים׃
8So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside the gate of the house of Yahweh. וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּעֲשׂוּ אֲרֹון אֶחָד וַיִּתְּנֻהוּ בְּשַׁעַר בֵּית־יְהוָה חוּצָה׃
9And proclamation was made throughout Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for Yahweh the tax that Moses the servant of God laid upon Israel in the wilderness. וַיִּתְּנוּ־קֹול בִּיהוּדָה וּבִירוּשָׁלִַם לְהָבִיא לַיהוָה מַשְׂאַת מֹשֶׁה עֶבֶד־הָאֱלֹהִים עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל בַּמִּדְבָּר׃
10And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished. וַיִּשְׂמְחוּ כָל־הַשָּׂרִים וְכָל־הָעָם וַיָּבִיאוּ וַיַּשְׁלִיכוּ לָאָרֹון עַד־לְכַלֵּה׃
11And whenever the chest was brought to the king's officers by the Levites, when they saw that there was much money in it, the king's secretary and the officer of the chief priest would come and empty the chest and take it and return it to its place. Thus they did day after day, and collected money in abundance. וַיְהִי בְּעֵת יָבִיא אֶת־הָאָרֹון אֶל־פְּקֻדַּת הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּיַד הַלְוִיִּם וְכִרְאֹותָם כִּי־רַב הַכֶּסֶף וּבָא סֹופֵר הַמֶּלֶךְ וּפְקִיד כֹּהֵן הָרֹאשׁ וִיעָרוּ אֶת־הָאָרֹון וְיִשָּׂאֻהוּ וִישִׁיבֻהוּ אֶל־מְקֹמֹו כֹּה עָשׂוּ לְיֹום בְּיֹום וַיַּאַסְפוּ־כֶסֶף לָרֹב׃
12And the king and Jehoiada gave it to those who had charge of the work of the house of Yahweh, and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of Yahweh, and also workers in iron and bronze to repair the house of Yahweh. וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ וִיהֹויָדָע אֶל־עֹושֵׂה מְלֶאכֶת עֲבֹודַת בֵּית־יְהוָה וַיִּהְיוּ שֹׂכְרִים חֹצְבִים וְחָרָשִׁים לְחַדֵּשׁ בֵּית יְהוָה וְגַם לְחָרָשֵׁי בַרְזֶל וּנְחֹשֶׁת לְחַזֵּק אֶת־בֵּית יְהוָה׃
13So those who were engaged in the work laboured, and the repairing went forward in their hands, and they restored the house of God to its proper condition and strengthened it. וַיַּעֲשׂוּ עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה וַתַּעַל אֲרוּכָה לַמְּלָאכָה בְּיָדָם וַיַּעֲמִידוּ אֶת־בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים עַל־מַתְכֻּנְתֹּו וַיְאַמְּצֻהוּ׃
14And when they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, and with it were made utensils for the house of Yahweh, both for the service and for the burnt offerings, and dishes for incense, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of Yahweh continually all the days of Jehoiada. וּכְכַלֹּותָם הֵבִיאוּ לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וִיהֹויָדָע אֶת־שְׁאָר הַכֶּסֶף וַיַּעֲשֵׂהוּ כֵלִים לְבֵית־יְהוָה כְּלֵי שָׁרֵת וְהַעֲלֹות וְכַפֹּות וּכְלֵי זָהָב וָכָסֶף וַיִּהְיוּ מַעֲלִים עֹלֹות בְּבֵית־יְהוָה תָּמִיד כֹּל יְמֵי יְהֹויָדָע׃ ף

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
