2 Kings 22

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 Josiah was eight years old when he had begun to reign. He reigned for thirty-one years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah, from Bozkath.	1 υιος οκτω ετων ιωσιας εν τω βασιλευειν αυτον και τριακοντα και εν ετος εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ και ονομα τη μητρι αυτου ιεδιδα θυγατηρ εδεια εκ βασουρωθ
2 And he did what was pleasing before the Lord, and he walked in all the ways of his father David. He did not turn aside to the right, or to the left.	2 και εποιησεν το ευθες εν οφθαλμοις κυριου και επορευθη εν παση οδω δαυιδ του πατρος αυτου ουκ απεστη δεξια η αριστερα
3 Then, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, the king sent Shaphan, the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe of the temple of the Lord, saying to him:	3 και εγενηθη εν τω οκτωκαιδεκατω ετει τω βασιλει ιωσια εν τω μηνι τω ογδοω απεστειλεν ο βασιλευς τον σαφφαν υιον εσελιου υιου μεσολλαμ τον γραμματεα οικου κυριου λεγων
4 “Go to Hilkiah, the high priest, so that the money may be put together which has been brought into the temple of the Lord, which the doorkeepers of the temple have collected from the people.	4 αναβηθι προς χελκιαν τον ιερεα τον μεγαν και σφραγισον το αργυριον το εισενεχθεν εν οικω κυριου ο συνηγαγον οι φυλασσοντες τον σταθμον παρα του λαου
5 And let it be given, by those in charge of the house of the Lord, to the workers. And let them distribute it to those who are working in the temple of the Lord in order to repair the surfaces of the temple,	5 και δοτωσαν αυτο επι χειρα ποιουντων τα εργα των καθεσταμενων εν οικω κυριου και εδωκεν αυτο τοις ποιουσιν τα εργα τοις εν οικω κυριου του κατισχυσαι το βεδεκ του οικου
6 specifically, to carpenters and masons, and to those who mend gaps, and so that wood may be purchased, and stones from the quarries, in order to repair the temple of the Lord.	6 τοις τεκτοσιν και τοις οικοδομοις και τοις τειχισταις και του κτησασθαι ξυλα και λιθους λατομητους του κραταιωσαι το βεδεκ του οικου
7 Yet truly, let no account be given by them of the money that they receive. Instead, let them have it within their power and trust.”	7 πλην ουκ εξελογιζοντο αυτους το αργυριον το διδομενον αυτοις οτι εν πιστει αυτοι ποιουσιν
8 Then Hilkiah, the high priest, said to Shaphan, the scribe, “I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord.” And Hilkiah gave the volume to Shaphan, and he read it.	8 και ειπεν χελκιας ο ιερευς ο μεγας προς σαφφαν τον γραμματεα βιβλιον του νομου ευρον εν οικω κυριου και εδωκεν χελκιας το βιβλιον προς σαφφαν και ανεγνω αυτο
9 Also, Shaphan, the scribe, went to the king, and reported to him what he had instructed. And he said: “Your servants have brought together the money which was found in the house of the Lord. And they have given it so that it would be distributed to the workers by the overseers of the works of the temple of the Lord.”	9 και εισηνεγκεν προς τον βασιλεα ιωσιαν και επεστρεψεν τω βασιλει ρημα και ειπεν εχωνευσαν οι δουλοι σου το αργυριον το ευρεθεν εν τω οικω κυριου και εδωκαν αυτο επι χειρα ποιουντων τα εργα των καθεσταμενων εν οικω κυριου
10 Also, Shaphan, the scribe, explained to the king, saying, “Hilkiah, the priest, gave the book to me.” And when Shaphan had read it before the king,	10 και ειπεν σαφφαν ο γραμματευς προς τον βασιλεα λεγων βιβλιον εδωκεν μοι χελκιας ο ιερευς και ανεγνω αυτο σαφφαν ενωπιον του βασιλεως
11 and the king had heard the words of the book of the law of the Lord, he tore his garments.	11 και εγενετο ως ηκουσεν ο βασιλευς τους λογους του βιβλιου του νομου και διερρηξεν τα ιματια εαυτου
12 And he instructed Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, and Achbor, the son of Micaiah, and Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah, the servant of the king, saying:	12 και ενετειλατο ο βασιλευς τω χελκια τω ιερει και τω αχικαμ υιω σαφφαν και τω αχοβωρ υιω μιχαιου και τω σαφφαν τω γραμματει και τω ασαια δουλω του βασιλεως λεγων
13 “Go and consult the Lord concerning me, and the people, and all of Judah, about the words of this volume which has been found. For the great wrath of the Lord has been kindled against us because our fathers did not listen to the words of this book, so that they would do all that has been written for us.”	13 δευτε εκζητησατε τον κυριον περι εμου και περι παντος του λαου και περι παντος του ιουδα περι των λογων του βιβλιου του ευρεθεντος τουτου οτι μεγαλη η οργη κυριου η εκκεκαυμενη εν ημιν υπερ ου ουκ ηκουσαν οι πατερες ημων των λογων του βιβλιου τουτου του ποιειν κατα παντα τα γεγραμμενα καθ' ημων
14 Therefore, Hilkiah, the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asaiah, went to Huldah, the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, the keeper of the vestments, who was living in Jerusalem, in the second part. And they spoke with her.	14 και επορευθη χελκιας ο ιερευς και αχικαμ και αχοβωρ και σαφφαν και ασαιας προς ολδαν την προφητιν γυναικα σελλημ υιου θεκουε υιου αραας του ιματιοφυλακος και αυτη κατωκει εν ιερουσαλημ εν τη μασενα και ελαλησαν προς αυτην
15 And she responded to them: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Tell the man who sent you to me:	15 και ειπεν αυτοις ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ειπατε τω ανδρι τω αποστειλαντι υμας προς με
16 Thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead evils over this place, and over its inhabitants, all the words of the law that the king of Judah has read.	16 ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω επαγω κακα επι τον τοπον τουτον και επι τους ενοικουντας αυτον παντας τους λογους του βιβλιου ους ανεγνω βασιλευς ιουδα
17 For they have abandoned me, and they have sacrificed to foreign gods, provoking me by all the works of their hands. And so my indignation will be kindled against this place. And it will not be extinguished.	17 ανθ' ων εγκατελιπον με και εθυμιων θεοις ετεροις οπως παροργισωσιν με εν τοις εργοις των χειρων αυτων και εκκαυθησεται ο θυμος μου εν τω τοπω τουτω και ου σβεσθησεται
18 But to the king of Judah, who sent you so that you would consult the Lord, so shall you say: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: In so far as you have heard the words of the volume,	18 και προς βασιλεα ιουδα τον αποστειλαντα υμας επιζητησαι τον κυριον ταδε ερειτε προς αυτον ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ οι λογοι ους ηκουσας
19 and your heart was terrified, and you humbled yourself before the Lord, listening to the words against this place and its inhabitants, specifically, that they would become an astonishment and a curse, and because you have torn your garments, and have wept before me: I also have heard you, says the Lord.	19 ανθ' ων οτι ηπαλυνθη η καρδια σου και ενετραπης απο προσωπου κυριου ως ηκουσας οσα ελαλησα επι τον τοπον τουτον και επι τους ενοικουντας αυτον του ειναι εις αφανισμον και εις καταραν και διερρηξας τα ιματια σου και εκλαυσας ενωπιον εμου και γε εγω ηκουσα λεγει κυριος
20 For this reason, I will gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your sepulcher in peace, so that your eyes may not see all the evils that I will bring over this place.”	20 ουχ ουτως ιδου εγω προστιθημι σε προς τους πατερας σου και συναχθηση εις τον ταφον σου εν ειρηνη και ουκ οφθησεται εν τοις οφθαλμοις σου εν πασιν τοις κακοις οις εγω ειμι επαγω επι τον τοπον τουτον και επεστρεψαν τω βασιλει το ρημα
