35 Josiah celebrated the Passover to the Lord in Jerusalem, and the Passover lamb was slaughtered on the fourteenth day of the first month. 2 He appointed the priests to their duties and encouraged them in the service of the Lord’s temple. 3 He said to the Levites, who instructed all Israel and who had been consecrated to the Lord: “Put the sacred ark in the temple that Solomon son of David king of Israel built. It is not to be carried about on your shoulders. Now serve the Lord your God and his people Israel. 4 Prepare yourselves by families in your divisions, according to the instructions written by David king of Israel and by his son Solomon. 5 “Stand in the holy place with a group of Levites for each subdivision of the families of your fellow Israelites, the lay people. 6 Slaughter the Passover lambs, consecrate yourselves and prepare the lambs for your fellow Israelites, doing what the Lord commanded through Moses.” 7 Josiah provided for all the lay people who were there a total of thirty thousand lambs and goats for the Passover offerings, and also three thousand cattle—all from the king’s own possessions. 8 His officials also contributed voluntarily to the people and the priests and Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah and Jehiel, the officials in charge of God’s temple, gave the priests twenty-six hundred Passover offerings and three hundred cattle. 9 Also Konaniah along with Shemaiah and Nethanel, his brothers, and Hashabiah, Jeiel and Jozabad, the leaders of the Levites, provided five thousand Passover offerings and five hundred head of cattle for the Levites. 10 The service was arranged and the priests stood in their places with the Levites in their divisions as the king had ordered. 11 The Passover lambs were slaughtered, and the priests splashed against the altar the blood handed to them, while the Levites skinned the animals. 12 They set aside the burnt offerings to give them to the subdivisions of the families of the people to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the Book of Moses. They did the same with the cattle. 13 They roasted the Passover animals over the fire as prescribed, and boiled the holy offerings in pots, caldrons and pans and served them quickly to all the people. 14 After this, they made preparations for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the descendants of Aaron, were sacrificing the burnt offerings and the fat portions until nightfall. So the Levites made preparations for themselves and for the Aaronic priests. 15 The musicians, the descendants of Asaph, were in the places prescribed by David, Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun the king’s seer. The gatekeepers at each gate did not need to leave their posts, because their fellow Levites made the preparations for them. 16 So at that time the entire service of the Lord was carried out for the celebration of the Passover and the offering of burnt offerings on the altar of the Lord, as King Josiah had ordered. 17 The Israelites who were present celebrated the Passover at that time and observed the Festival of Unleavened Bread for seven days. 18 The Passover had not been observed like this in Israel since the days of the prophet Samuel; and none of the kings of Israel had ever celebrated such a Passover as did Josiah, with the priests, the Levites and all Judah and Israel who were there with the people of Jerusalem. 19 This Passover was celebrated in the eighteenth year of Josiah’s reign. 20 After all this, when Josiah had set the temple in order, Necho king of Egypt went up to fight at Carchemish on the Euphrates, and Josiah marched out to meet him in battle. 21 But Necho sent messengers to him, saying, “What quarrel is there, king of Judah, between you and me? It is not you I am attacking at this time, but the house with which I am at war. God has told me to hurry; so stop opposing God, who is with me, or he will destroy you.” 22 Josiah, however, would not turn away from him, but disguised himself to engage him in battle. He would not listen to what Necho had said at God’s command but went to fight him on the plain of Megiddo. 23 Archers shot King Josiah, and he told his officers, “Take me away; I am badly wounded.” 24 So they took him out of his chariot, put him in his other chariot and brought him to Jerusalem, where he died. He was buried in the tombs of his ancestors, and all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him. 25 Jeremiah composed laments for Josiah, and to this day all the male and female singers commemorate Josiah in the laments. These became a tradition in Israel and are written in the Laments. 26 The other events of Josiah’s reign and his acts of devotion in accordance with what is written in the Law of the Lord— 27 all the events, from beginning to end, are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. 36 1 And the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father. 2 Jehoahaz[a] was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. 3 The king of Egypt dethroned him in Jerusalem and imposed on Judah a levy of a hundred talents[b] of silver and a talent[c] of gold. 4 The king of Egypt made Eliakim, a brother of Jehoahaz, king over Judah and Jerusalem and changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. But Necho took Eliakim’s brother Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt. 5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. He did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God. 6 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon attacked him and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon. 7 Nebuchadnezzar also took to Babylon articles from the temple of the Lord and put them in his temple[d] there. 8 The other events of Jehoiakim’s reign, the detestable things he did and all that was found against him, are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. And Jehoiachin his son succeeded him as king. 9 Jehoiachin was eighteen[e] years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months and ten days. He did evil in the eyes of the Lord. 10 In the spring, King Nebuchadnezzar sent for him and brought him to Babylon, together with articles of value from the temple of the Lord, and he made Jehoiachin’s uncle,[f] Zedekiah, king over Judah and Jerusalem. 11 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. 12 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord his God and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke the word of the Lord. 13 He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him take an oath in God’s name. He became stiff-necked and hardened his heart and would not turn to the Lord, the God of Israel. 14 Furthermore, all the leaders of the priests and the people became more and more unfaithful, following all the detestable practices of the nations and defiling the temple of the Lord, which he had consecrated in Jerusalem. 15 The Lord, the God of their ancestors, sent word to them through his messengers again and again, because he had pity on his people and on his dwelling place. 16 But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his words and scoffed at his prophets until the wrath of the Lord was aroused against his people and there was no remedy. 17 He brought up against them the king of the Babylonians,[g] who killed their young men with the sword in the sanctuary, and did not spare young men or young women, the elderly or the infirm. God gave them all into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar. 18 He carried to Babylon all the articles from the temple of God, both large and small, and the treasures of the Lord’s temple and the treasures of the king and his officials. 19 They set fire to God’s temple and broke down the wall of Jerusalem; they burned all the palaces and destroyed everything of value there. 20 He carried into exile to Babylon the remnant, who escaped from the sword, and they became servants to him and his successors until the kingdom of Persia came to power. 21 The land enjoyed its sabbath rests; all the time of its desolation it rested, until the seventy years were completed in fulfillment of the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah. 22 In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the Lord spoken by Jeremiah, the Lord moved the heart of Cyrus king of Persia to make a proclamation throughout his realm and also to put it in writing: 23 “This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: “‘The Lord, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and he has appointed me to build a temple for him at Jerusalem in Judah. Any of his people among you may go up, and may the Lord their God be with them.’” Holy Bible, New International Version®, NIV® Copyright ©1973, 1978, 1984, 2011 by Biblica, Inc.® Used by permission.

2 इतिहास 35 Nepali Bible: Easy-to-Read Version (ERV-NE) योशियाह निस्तार चाड मनाउँछन् 35 राजा योशियाहले परमप्रभुका निम्ति यरूशलेममा निस्तार चाड मनाए। निस्तार चाडको थुमाको पाठालाई पहिलो महीनाको चौधौं दिनमा मारियो। 2 योशियाहले तिनीहरूको कार्य गर्नका निम्ति पूजाहारीहरू छाने। तिनले पूजाहारीहरूलाई उत्साह दिए जब तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा सेवा गरिरहेका थिए। 3 योशियाहले ती लेवीहरूसँग कुरा-कानी गरे जसले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई शिक्षा दिन्थे अनि जसलाई परमप्रभुको सेवाको निम्ति पवित्र तुल्याइएका थिए। तिनले ती लेवीहरूलाई भने, “पवित्र सन्दूकलाई मन्दिर भित्र राख जसलाई सुलेमानले निर्माण गरे। सुलेमान दाऊदका छोरा थिए। दाऊद इस्राएलका राजा थिए। पवित्र सन्दूकलाई काँधमा बोकेर एक स्थान देखि अर्को स्थानतिर नलैजाऊ। अब परमप्रभु तिम्रा परमेश्वरको सेवा गर। परमेश्वरका मानिसहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको सेवा गर। 4 तिमीहरू स्वंयलाई तिम्रा परिवार समूहहरू अनुसार मन्दिरमा सेवाका निम्ति तयार पार। ती कामहरू गर जो राजा दाऊद अनि तिनका छोरा सुलेमानले गर्नु भनी तिमीहरूलाई दिएका छन्। 5 पवित्र स्थानमा लेवीहरूको समूहसित उभिएरबस हरेक भिन्न-भिन्न परिवार समूहका मानिसहरूको निम्ति यसो गर, यसरी तिमीहरू तिनीहरूको सहायता गर्न सक्ने छौ। 6 निस्तार चाडका थुमा पाठाहरू मार, तिमीहरू स्वयंलाई परमप्रभुका निम्ति पवित्र तुल्याऊ। भेंडाका पाठाहरूलाई तिम्रा दाज्यू-भाइहरू इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति तयार पार। परमप्रभुले हामीलाई गर्नु भनी आदेश गर्नु भएका सबै कुराहरू गर। परमप्रभुले हामीलाई ती सबै आदेशहरू मोशाद्वारा दिनु भएको थियो।” 7 योशियाहले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई निस्तार चाडका निम्ति मार्नु भनी 3,000 भेंडा र बाख्राहरू दिए। तिनले मानिसहरूलाई 3,000 गाई-बस्तुहरू पनि दिए। यी सबै पशुहरू राजा योशियाहका आफ्नै बगालका थिए। 8 योशियाहका अधिकारीहरूले पनि खुशीसाथ मानिसहरूलाई, पूजाहारीहरूलाई अनि लेवीहरूलाई निस्तार चाडमा प्रयोग गर्नु भनी पशुहरू अनि चीज-बीजहरू दिए। प्रधान पूजाहारी हिल्कियाह, जकर्याह अनि यहीएल मन्दिरको जिम्मावार अधिकारीहरू थिए। तिनीहरू पूजाहीहरूलाई 2,600 भेंडाका पाठा र बाख्राहरू अनि 300 गोरूहरू निस्तार चाडका बलिहरूका निम्ति दिए। 9 कोन्नयाह तिनका भाइहरू शमायाह अनि नतनेल, अनि हशबियाह सहित, यीएल अनि योजाबादले 5,000 भेंडा र बाख्राहरू अनि 500 गोरूहरू निस्तार चाडका बलिहरूका निम्ति लेवीहरूलाई दिए। तिनीहरू लेवीहरूका अगुवाहरू थिए। 10 निस्तार चाडको सेवाका निम्ति जब हरेक कुरा तयार भए तब पूजाहारीहरू तिनीहरूको स्थानहरूमा गए अनि लेवीहरू तिनीहरूको समूहहरूमा खडा भए। राजाले जो आदेश गरे त्यो यस्तै थियो। 11 निस्तार चाडका थुमाहरू मारिए। तब लेवीहरूले पशुहरूका छाला काढे अनि रगत पूजाहारीहरूलाई दिए। पूजाहारीहरूले रगत वेदीमा छर्किदिए। 12 त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले विभिन्न परिवार समूहहरूलाई होमबलिका निम्ति प्रयोग गर्न भनी पशुहरू दिए। यो यसकारणले गरियो कि होमबलि मोशाले व्यवस्थामा लेखिए अनुसार अर्पण गर्न सकियोस्। तिनीहरूले गोरूहरू लाई पनि त्यसै गरे। 13 लेवीहरूले निस्तार चाडका बलिहरूलाई तिनीहरूलाई आदेश गरिएको प्रकारले आगोमा पोले। अनि तिनीहरूले पवित्र भेटीहरूलाई भाँडा, कित्ली अनि तावाहरूमा उमाले। तब तिनीहरूले चाँडो गरी मासु मानिसहरूलाई दिए। 14 यो समाप्त भएपछि, लेवीहरूले आफ्नै निम्ति अनि पूजाहारीहरू जो हारूनका सन्तानहरू थिए। तिनीहरूका निम्ति मासु ल्याए। ती पूजाहारीहरूलाई अँध्यारो नभएसम्म खराएर ब्यस्त राखिए। तिनीहरूले होमबलिहरू अनि बलिका बोसो जलाउन कठिन परिश्रम गरे। 15 आसापका परिवारका लेवी गायकहरू ती स्थानहरूमा गए जो राजा दाऊदले तिनीहरू उभिनका निम्ति चुनेका थिए। ती आसाप, हेमान अनि यदूतून-राजाका अगमवक्ता थिए। प्रत्येक फाटकमा द्वारपालहरूले आफ्ना स्थान छाडनु परेन किनभने तिनीहरूका लेवी दाज्यू-भाइहरूले निस्तार चाडका निम्ति हरेक कुरा तिनीहरूका निम्ति तयार गरेका थिए। 16 यसरी त्यस दिन राजा योशियाहले आदेश गरे अनुसार परमप्रभुको आराधनाका निम्ति हरेक कुरा गरिए। निस्तार चाड मनाइयो अनि परमप्रभुको वेदीमा होम-बलिहरू अर्पण गरिए। 17 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले, जो त्यहाँ थिए, निस्तार चाड अनि अखमीरे रोटीको चाड सात दिन सम्म मनाए। 18 निस्तार चाड, अगमवक्ता शमूएलको समय देखि यता यस्तो प्रकारले इस्राएलमा मनाइएको थिएन। इस्राएलका कुनै पनि राजाहरूले यो जस्तो निस्तार चाड कहिले मनाएका थिएनन्। राजा योशियाह, पूजाहारीहरू, लेवीहरू अनि यहूदा र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले जो त्यहाँ थिए यरूशलेमका सबै मानिसहरू साथ अत्यन्त विशेष रूपले निस्तार चाड मनाए। 19 तिनीहरूले यो निस्तार चाड योशियाहको शासन कालको अठाह्रौं बर्षमा मनाए। योशियाहको मृत्यु 20 योशियाहले मन्दिरका निम्ति ती सबै असल कुराहरू गरे। पछि, मिश्र देशका राजा नेको यूफ्रेटिस नदीको कर्कमीश शहर विरूद्ध लडाईं गर्न सेना लिएर आए। राजा योशियाह नेको विरूद्ध लड्न गए। 21 तर नेकोले योशियाह कहाँ दूतहरू पठाए। तिनीहरूले भने, “राजा योशियाह, यो युद्ध तपाईंको समस्या होइन। म तपाईंको विरूद्ध लड्न आएको होइन्। म मेरा शत्रुहरू सित लड्न आएको हुँ। परमेश्वरले मलाई चाँडो गर भन्नु भयो। परमेश्वर मेरो पक्षमा हुनुहुन्छ, यसर्थ मलाई दिकदारी नगर्नुहोस्। यदि तपाईंले म विरूद्ध लडाई गर्नु भयो भने, परमेश्वरले तपाईंलाई नष्ट गर्नु हुनेछ।” 22 तर योशियाह हटेनन्। तिनले नेकोसित लड्ने निश्चय गरे, यसर्थ तिनले आफ्नो रूप बद्ले अनि लडाईं लड्न गए। योशियाहले परमेश्वरको आदेशबारे नेकोले भनेका कुरा सुनेनन्। 23 योशियाह युद्धमा भएको बेला काँढले लाग्यो। तिनले आफ्ना सेवकहरूलाई भने, “मलाई यहाँबाट लैजाऊ, म नराम्रो रूपले घाइते भएकोछु।” 24 यसर्थ सेवकहरूले योशियाहलाई तिनको रथबाट बाहिर निकाले अनि तिनलाई तिनले आफूसित लडाईमा ल्याएको अर्को रथमा हाले। तब तिनीहरूले योशियाहलाई यरूशलेम लगे। राजा योशियाहको यरूशलेममा मृत्यु भयो। योशियाहलाई त्यो चिहानमा गाडियो जहाँ तिनका पुर्खाहरूलाई गाडिएका थिए। यहूदा अनि यरूशलेमका समस्त, मानिसहरू अति दुःखीत थिए किनभने योशियाहको मृत्यु भएको थियो। 25 यिर्मयाहले योशियाहका निम्ति केही शोक-गीतहरू लेखे अनि गाए। अनि पुरूष एवं स्त्री गायकहरू आज सम्म ती शोक-गीतहरू गाउँदै छन्। यो इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले सदैव गर्ने केही कुरा बन्यो-तिनीहरू योशियाहका निम्ति शोक-गीत गाउँछन्। ती गीहरू शोक-गीतहरू नाउँको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन्। 26-27 योशियाहले तिनी राजा हुँदा आफ्नो शासनकालको शुरू देखि अन्त सम्म गरेका सबै अन्य कुराहरू इस्राएल अनि यहूदाका राजाहरूको इतिहास नाउँको पुस्तकमा लेखिएका छन्। त्यो पुस्तकले परमप्रभु प्रति तिनको भक्ति अनि तिनले परमप्रभुको व्यवस्था कसरी पालन गरे सो देखाउँदछ।
