2 Ljetopisa 31
1 Kad se sve to svršilo, svi Izraelovi sinovi koji su se našli ondje zađoše po judejskim gradovima te su razbijali stupove, sjekli ašere i obarali uzvišice i žrtvenike po svem Judinu, Benjaminovu, Efrajimovu i Manašeovu plemenu dokle god nisu završili. Onda se svi Izraelovi sinovi vratiše svaki na svoj posjed, u svoje gradove.
Now when all this was finished, all Israel that were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, also in Ephraim and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the sons of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
2 Ezekija je opet uredio svećeničke i levitske redove po njihovim redovima, svakoga prema njegovoj službi, svećenike i levite, za paljenice i za pričesnice, da služe, slave i hvale Boga na vratima Jahvina tabora.
And Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Jehovah.
3 Odredio je kraljevski doprinos od svoga imanja za paljenice, za paljenice jutarnje i večernje i za paljenice što se prinose subotom, za mlađaka i na blagdane, kako je napisano u Zakonu Jahvinu.
Also he appointed the king's portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, namely, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.
4 Zapovjedio je narodu, jeruzalemskim stanovnicima, da daju dio svećenicima i levitima da se utvrde u Zakonu Jahvinu.
Moreover he commanded the people who dwelt in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Jehovah.
5 Kad se to razglasilo, počeli su Izraelovi sinovi donositi najboljega žita, novog vina, ulja i meda i svakojaka poljskog priroda i donosili su obilne desetine od svega.
And as soon as the commandment came abroad, the sons of Israel gave in abundance the first-fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field. And they brought in the tithe of all things abundantly.
6 Izraelovi i Judini sinovi, koji su živjeli u judejskim gradovima, također su donosili desetinu od goveda i sitne stoke i desetinu od svetih stvari posvećenih Jahvi, njihovu Bogu; donosili su i davali sve hrpu na hrpu.
And the sons of Israel and Judah, who dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.
7 Trećega su mjeseca počeli slagati u hrpe, a sedmoga su mjeseca završili.
In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
8 Onda je došao Ezekija s knezovima i, ugledavši hrpe, blagosloviše Jahvu i njegov izraelski narod.
And when Hezekiah and the rulers came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.
9 Potom se Ezekija propitao kod svećenika i levita za hrpe.
Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
10 Odgovarajući, svećenički poglavar Azarja, od Sadokova doma, reče: “Otkako su počeli donositi ove prinose u Dom Jahvin, jedemo i siti smo, a mnogo i pretječe, jer je Jahve blagoslovio svoj narod te je preteklo ovo mnoštvo.”
And Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, Since they began to bring the oblations into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have plenty left. For Jehovah has blessed his people, and that which is left is this great store.
11 Tada Ezekija zapovjedi da se urede sobe u Jahvinu Domu; kad su ih spremili,
Then Hezekiah commanded to prepare chambers in the house of Jehovah, and they prepared them.
12 počeli su onamo unositi prinose, desetine i svetinje; nad tim je bio predstojnik levit Konanija i brat mu Šimej, drugi do njega.
And they brought in the oblations and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully. And Conaniah the Levite was ruler over them, and Shimei his brother was second.
13 A Jehiel, Azazja, Nahat, Asahel, Jerimot, Jozabad, Eliel, Jismakja, Mahat i Benaja biše postavljeni kao nadglednici uz Konaniju i brata mu Šimeja, po nalogu kralja Ezekije i Azarje, predstojnika u Božjem Domu.
And Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismachiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of the house of God.
14 Kore, sin levita Jimne, vratar Istočnih vrata, bio je nad dragovoljnim Božjim prinosima da bi prinosio Jahvine podizanice i svetinje nad svetinjama.
And Kore the son of Imnah the Levite, the porter at the east gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the oblations of Jehovah, and the most holy things.
15 Pod njim su bili Eden, Minjamin, Ješua, Šemaja, Amarja i Šekanija po svećeničkim gradovima da savjesno dijele svojoj braći po njihovim redovima, kako velikome tako i malome -
And under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, in the cities of the priests, in their office of trust, to give to their brothers by divisions, as well to the great as to the small,
16 osim muškaraca starijih od trideset godina popisanih u rodovnicima - svima koji su dolazili u Dom Jahvin na svoj svakidašnji posao da obave obredne dužnosti po svojim redovima.
besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone that entered into the house of Jehovah, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions,
17 U rodovnike su bili popisani svećenici po obiteljima i leviti od dvadeset godina naviše po svojim službama, po svojim redovima.
and those who were reckoned by genealogy of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions,
18 U rodovnike bijahu popisana sva njihova djeca, njihove žene, njihovi sinovi i njihove kćeri, za svekoliki zbor, jer su se iskreno posvetili svetinjama.
and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation. For in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
19 Aronovi sinovi, svećenici na poljskim pašnjacima svojih gradova, u svakom pojedinom gradu, bijahu poimence određeni da daju dio svakome muškarcu među svećenicima. Sve su rodovnike sastavili leviti.
Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
20 Ezekija je uradio tako po svoj Judeji čineći što je dobro, pravo i vjerno pred Jahvom, svojim Bogom.
And thus Hezekiah did throughout all Judah. And he wrought that which was good and right and faithful before Jehovah his God.
21 U svakom poslu koji je počeo za službu Božjega Doma, i u zakonu i u zapovijedi tražeći Boga, trudio se svim svojim srcem i uspijevao.
And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
