RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And Ezekias began to reign at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abia, daughter of Zacharias.

1 Y EZECHÎAS comenzó á reinar siendo de veinticinco años, y reinó veintinueve años en Jerusalem. El nombre de su madre fué Abía, hija de Zachârías.

2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father David had done.

2 E hizo lo recto en ojos de Jehová, conforme á todas las cosas que había hecho David su padre.

3 And it came to pass, when he was established over his kingdom, in the first month, he opened the doors of the house of the Lord, and repaired them.

3 En el primer año de su reinado, en el mes primero, abrió las puertas de la casa de Jehová, y las reparó.

4 And he brought in the priests and the Levites, and put them on the east side,

4 E hizo venir los sacerdotes y Levitas, y juntólos en la plaza oriental.

5 and said to them, Hear, ye Levites: now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of the Lord God of your fathers, and cast out the impurity from the holy places.

5 Y díjoles: Oidme, Levitas, y santificaos ahora, y santificaréis la casa de Jehová el Dios de vuestros padres, y sacaréis del santuario la inmundicia.

6 For our fathers have revolted, and done that which was evil before the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and have turned away their face from the tabernacle of the Lord, and have turned [their] back.

6 Porque nuestros padres se han rebelado, y han hecho lo malo en ojos de Jehová nuestro Dios; que le dejaron, y apartaron sus ojos del tabernáculo de Jehová, y le volvieron las espaldas.

7 And they have shut up the doors of the temple, and put out the lamps, and have not burnt incense, and have not offered whole-burnt-offerings in the holy [place] to the God of Israel.

7 Y aun cerraron las puertas del pórtico, y apagaron las lámparas; no quemaron perfume, ni sacrificaron holocausto en el santuario al Dios de Israel.

8 And the Lord was very angry with Juda and Jerusalem, and made them an astonishment, and a desolation, and a hissing, as ye see with your eyes.

8 Por tanto la ira de Jehová ha venido sobre Judá y Jerusalem, y los ha entregado á turbación, y á execración y escarnio, como veis vosotros con vuestros ojos.

9 And, behold, your fathers have been smitten with the sword, and your sons and your daughters and your wives are in captivity in a land not their own, as it is even now.

9 Y he aquí nuestros padres han caído á cuchillo, nuestros hijos y nuestras hijas y nuestras mujeres son cautivas por esto.

10 Therefore it is now in my heart to make a covenant, a covenant with the Lord God of Israel, that he may turn away his fierce wrath from us.

10 Ahora pues, yo he determinado hacer alianza con Jehová el Dios de Israel, para que aparte de nosotros la ira de su furor.

11 And now be not wanting [to your duty], for the Lord has chosen you to stand before him to minister, and to be ministers and burners of incense to him.

11 Hijos míos, no os engañéis ahora, porque Jehová os ha escogido á vosotros para que estéis delante de él, y le sirváis, y seáis sus ministros, y le queméis perfume.

12 Then the Levites rose up, Maath the son of Amasi, and Joel the son of Azarias, of the sons of Caath: and of the sons of Merari, Kis the son of Abdi, and Azarias the son of Ilaelel: and of the sons of Gedsoni, Jodaad the son of Zemmath, and Joadam: these [were] the sons of Joacha.

12 Entonces los Levitas se levantaron, Mahath hijo de Amasai, y Joel hijo de Azarías, de los hijos de Coath; y de los hijos de Merari, Cis hijo de Abdi, y Azarías hijo de Jehaleleel; y de los hijos de Gersón, Joah hijo de Zimma, y Edén hijo de Joah;

13 And of the sons of Elisaphan; Zambri, and Jeiel: and of the sons of Asaph; Zacharias, and Matthanias:

13 Y de los hijos de Elisaphán, Simri y Jehiel; y de los hijos de Asaph, Zachârías y Mathanías;

14 and of the sons of Æman; Jeiel, and Semei: and of the sons of Idithun; Samaias, and Oziel.

14 Y de los hijos de Hemán, Jehiel y Simi; y de los hijos de Jeduthún, Semeías y Uzziel.

15 And they gathered their brethren, and they purified themselves according to the king's command by the order of the Lord, to purify the house of the Lord.

15 Estos juntaron á sus hermanos, y santificáronse, y entraron, conforme al mandamiento del rey y las palabras de Jehová, para limpiar la casa de Jehová.

16 And the priests entered into the house of the Lord, to purify [it], and they cast out all the uncleanness that was found in the house of the Lord, even into the court of the house of the Lord: and the Levites received [it] to cast into the brook of Kedron without.

16 Y entrando los sacerdotes dentro de la casa de Jehová para limpiarla, sacaron toda la inmundicia que hallaron en el templo de Jehová, al atrio de la casa de Jehová; la cual tomaron los Levitas, para sacarla fuera al torrente de Cedrón.

17 And [Ezekias] began on the first day, [even] on the new moon of the first month, to purify, and on the eighth day of the month they entered into the temple of the Lord: and they purified the house of the Lord in eight days; and on the thirteenth day of the first month they finished [the work].

17 Y comenzaron á santificar el primero del mes primero, y á los ocho del mismo mes vinieron al pórtico de Jehová: y santificaron la casa de Jehová en ocho días, y en el dieciséis del mes primero acabaron.

18 And they went in to king Ezekias, and said, We have purified all the things in the house of the Lord, the altar of whole-burnt-offering, and its vessels, and the table of shew-bread, and its vessels;

18 Luego pasaron al rey Ezechîas, y dijéronle: Ya hemos limpiado toda la casa de Jehová, el altar del holocausto, y todos sus instrumentos, y la mesa de la proposición con todos sus utensilios.

19 and all the vessels which king Achaz polluted in his reign, in his apostacy, we have prepared and purified: behold, they are before the altar of the Lord.

19 Asimismo hemos preparado y santificado todos los vasos que en su prevaricación había maltratado el rey Achâz, cuando reinaba: y he aquí están delante del altar de Jehová.

20 And king Ezekias rose early in the morning, and gathered the chief men of the city, and went up to the house of the Lord.

20 Y levantándose de mañana el rey Ezechîas reunió los principales de la ciudad, y subió á la casa de Jehová.

21 And he brought seven calves, seven rams, seven lambs, seven kids of goats for a sin-offering, for the kingdom, and for the holy things, and for Israel: and he told the priests the sons of Aaron to go up to the altar of the Lord.

21 Y presentaron siete novillos, siete carneros, siete corderos, y siete machos de cabrío, para expiación por el reino, por el santuario y por Judá. Y dijo á los sacerdotes hijos de Aarón, que los ofreciesen sobre el altar de Jehová.

22 And they slew the calves, and the priests received the blood, and poured it on the altar: and they slew the rams, and poured the blood upon the altar: also they slew the lambs, and poured the blood round the altar.

22 Mataron pues los bueyes, y los sacerdotes tomaron la sangre, y esparciéronla sobre el altar; mataron luego los carneros, y esparcieron la sangre sobre el altar; asimismo mataron los corderos, y esparcieron la sangre sobre el altar.

23 And they brought the goats for a sin-offering before the king and the congregation; and laid their hands upon them.

23 Hicieron después llegar los machos cabríos de la expiación delante del rey y de la multitud, y pusieron sobre ellos sus manos:

24 And the priests slew them, and offered their blood as a propitiation on the altar; and they made atonement for all Israel: for the king said, The whole-burnt-offering, and the sin-offerings [are] for all Israel.

24 Y los sacerdotes los mataron, y expiando [esparcieron] la sangre de ellos sobre el altar, para reconciliar á todo Israel: porque por todo Israel mandó el rey [hacer] el holocausto y la expiación.

25 And he stationed the Levites in the house of the Lord with cymbals, and lutes, and harps, according to the commandment of king David, and of Gad the king's seer, and Nathan the prophet: for by the commandment of the Lord the order [was] in the hand of the prophets.

25 Puso también Levitas en la casa de Jehová con címbalos, y salterios, y arpas, conforme al mandamiento de David, y de Gad vidente del rey, y de Nathán profeta: porque aquel mandamiento fué por mano de Jehová, por mano de sus profetas.

26 And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets.

26 Y los Levitas estaban con los instrumentos de David, y los sacerdotes con trompetas.

27 And Ezekias told [them] to offer up the whole-burnt-offering on the altar: and when they began to offer the whole-burnt-offering, they began to sing to the Lord, and the trumpets [accompanied] the instruments of David king of Israel.

27 Entonces mandó Ezechîas sacrificar el holocausto en el altar; y al tiempo que comenzó el holocausto, comenzó también el cántico de Jehová, con las trompetas y los instrumentos de David rey de Israel.

28 And all the congregation worshipped, and the psalm-singers [were] singing, and the trumpets sounding, until the whole-burnt-sacrifice had been completely offered.

28 Y toda la multitud adoraba, y los cantores cantaban, y los trompetas sonaban las trompetas; todo hasta acabarse el holocausto.

29 And when they had done offering [it], the king and all that were present bowed, and worshipped.

29 Y como acabaron de ofrecer, inclinóse el rey, y todos los que con él estaban, y adoraron.

30 And king Ezekias and the princes told the Levites to sing hymns to the Lord in the words of David, and of Asaph the prophet: and they sang hymns with gladness, and fell down and worshipped.

30 Entonces el rey Ezechîas y los príncipes dijeron á los Levitas que alabasen á Jehová por las palabras de David y de Asaph vidente: y ellos alabaron con grande alegría, é inclinándose adoraron.

31 Then Ezekias answered and said, Now ye have consecrated yourselves to the Lord, bring near and offer sacrifices of praise in the house of the Lord. And the congregation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings into the house of the Lord; and every one who was ready in his heart [brought] whole-burnt-offerings.

31 Y respondiendo Ezechîas dijo: Vosotros os habéis consagrado ahora á Jehová; llegaos pues, y presentad sacrificios y alabanzas en la casa de Jehová. Y la multitud presentó sacrificios y alabanzas; y todo liberal de corazón, holocaustos.

32 And the number of the whole-burnt-offerings which the congregation brought, was seventy calves, a hundred rams, two hundred lambs: all these [were] for a whole-burnt-offering to the Lord.

32 Y fué el número de los holocaustos que trajo la congregación, setenta bueyes, cien carneros, doscientos corderos; todo para el holocausto de Jehová.

33 And the consecrated calves were six hundred, [and] the sheep three thousand.

33 Y las ofrendas fueron seiscientos bueyes, y tres mil ovejas.

34 But the priests were few, and could not flay the whole-burnt-offering, so their brethren the Levites helped them, until the work was finished, and until the priests had purified themselves: for the Levites [more] zealously purified [themselves] than the priests.

34 Mas los sacerdotes eran pocos, y no podían bastar á desollar los holocaustos; y así sus hermanos los Levitas les ayudaron hasta que acabaron la obra, y hasta que los sacerdotes se santificaron: porque los Levitas tuvieron mayor prontitud de corazón para santificarse, que los sacerdotes.

35 And the whole-burnt-offering [was] abundant, with the fat of the complete peace-offering, and the drink-offerings of the whole-burnt-sacrifice. So the service was established in the house of the Lord.

35 Así pues hubo gran multitud de holocaustos, con sebos de pacíficos, y libaciones de cada holocausto. Y quedó ordenado el servicio de la casa de Jehová.

36 And Ezekias and all the people rejoiced, because God had prepared the people: for the thing was done suddenly.

36 Y alegróse Ezechîas, y todo el pueblo, de que Dios hubiese preparado el pueblo; porque la cosa fué prestamente hecha.
