1约史雅的纪念,就如精制香料的人,用各种香味配成的香料, | 1The memory of Josiah is like blended incense carefully prepared by the perfumer; it is like delicious honey to every mouth, like music during a banquet. |
2在众人口里,甜如蜂蜜,又如酒会中的音乐。 | 2He followed the right way in converting the people and removing the horror of idolatry. |
3他悲痛人民的背信,因此铲除了邪恶的可憎之物; | 3He set his heart on the Lord and succeeded in having godliness prevail over wickedness. |
4他使自己的心,归向上主;他在罪恶横流的时代,实行了热心敬主的事。 | 4With the exception of David, Hezekiah and Josiah, the kings were very sinful men. they abandoned the Law of the Most High bringing an end to the kings of Judah. |
5除达味、希则克雅和约史雅外,别的都犯了错误; | 5They surrendered their power and their honor to foreign nations. |
6犹大的君王们,由于离弃了至高者的法律,蔑视了对天主应有的敬畏,因而都已丧亡: | 6Their enemies set fire to the holy city, making its streets desolate |
7因为,他们将自己的权力,让给外人,把自己的光荣,交于外方民族。 | 7as Jeremiah had foretold. |
8这民族烧毁了蒙选的圣城,使城中的道路不见人迹,全照耶肋米亚预言过的。 | 8It was Ezekiel who saw the vision of Glory when the Lord showed it to him above the chariot of the cherubim. |
9因为犹太人虐待了他,虽然他从母胎就被选为先知,来担负铲除、推翻、毁灭、建设、栽培和复兴等工作。 | 9He also remembered Job, the one who always followed the way of justice. |
10厄则克耳看见上主在革鲁宾的车上,显示给他的辉煌异像; | 10As for the twelve prophets, may their bones spring to life from the tomb, for they comforted the people of Jacob and saved them with confident hope. |
11他也提到遵行各样正道的约伯。 | 11Can we ever adequately praise Zerubbabel who was like a ring at the finger of God, and |
12愿十二先知的骨骸,从自己的茔地再放异彩,因为他们曾安慰了雅各伯,以自已坚固的信仰拯救了他。 | 12likewise Joshua, son of Jozadak? They were men who, in their days, built the Temple to the Lord, a sanctuary destined for everlasting glory. |
13我们要怎样赞颂则鲁巴贝耳?他像右手所带的印章指环, | 13Lasting too is the memory of Nehemiah, who rebuilt our ruined walls, provided gates and bars and rebuilt our homes. |
14约匝达克的儿子耶叔亚,也是如此:他们二人在任期内,建造了殿宇,并为上主高建了一座永远辉煌的圣殿。 | 14No one on earth was created to equal Enoch for he was taken up from the earth. |
15乃赫米雅值得纪念的事更多:他给我们重修了倒塌的城墙,安门加闩,并修葺了我们的房屋。 | 15And never was there a man like Joseph, the greatest among his brothers, the leader of his people; his bones were honored. |
16世上受造的人中,没有一个像哈诺客这样的人,因为他从世上被提升天。 | 16Shem and Seth were exalted among men, but Adam's glory was greater than any other living being. |
17出生的人中,也没有一个像若瑟的,他是兄弟们的领袖,民族的栋梁,弟兄的监护人; | 17 |
18他的遗骸特别受人敬重,死后还说了预言。 | 18 |
19在人类中,闪、舍特、厄诺士、都受人尊敬;但在受造上,超过众生的,却是亚当。 | 19 |
