2 Ljetopisa 33
1 Manašeu je bilo dvanaest godina kad se zakraljio. Pedeset i pet godina kraljevao je u Jeruzalemu.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
2 Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, povodeći se za gnusobama naroda što ih je Jahve protjerao pred sinovima Izraelovim.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah after the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the sons of Israel.
3 Obnovio je uzvišice što ih bijaše oborio otac mu Ezekija, podigao je žrtvenike Baalu, načinio ašere i stao se klanjati svoj nebeskoj vojsci i služiti joj.
For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down. And he reared up altars for the Baalim, and made Asheroth, and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4 Podigao je žrtvenike i u Domu Jahvinu, za koji bijaše rekao Jahve: “U Jeruzalemu će prebivati Ime moje zauvijek.”
And he built altars in the house of Jehovah, of which Jehovah said, In Jerusalem shall my name be forever.
5 Sagradio je žrtvenike svoj nebeskoj vojsci u oba predvorja Doma Jahvina.
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of Jehovah.
6 I sinove je svoje proveo kroz oganj u dolini Hinomova sina. Vračao je, gatao, čarao, stvorio bajače i opsjenare i uopće učinio premnogo zla u Jahvinim očima razjarujući ga.
He also made his sons to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom. And he practiced augury, and used enchantments, and practiced sorcery, and dealt with psychics, and with wizards. He wrought much evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger.
7 Načinio je idolski lik i posadio ga u Domu Božjem, za koji Bog bijaše rekao Davidu i njegovu sinu Salomonu: “U ovom Domu i u Jeruzalemu, koji sam izabrao među svim izraelskim plemenima, postavit ću Ime svoje zauvijek.
And he set the graven image of the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name forever,
8 Neću više dati da noga Izraelaca uzmakne iz zemlje koju sam dao u baštinu vašim očevima, samo ako budu držali i provodili u djelo sve što sam im zapovjedio: sav Zakon, uredbe i običaje dane preko Mojsija.”
neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances given by Moses.
9 Ali je Manaše zaveo Judejce i Jeruzalemce te su radili još gore nego narodi što ih je Jahve iskorijenio pred sinovima Izraelovim.
And Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than the nations did whom Jehovah destroyed before the sons of Israel.
10 Jahve je opominjao Manašea i njegov narod, ali oni nisu poslušali.
And Jehovah spoke to Manasseh, and to his people, but they gave no heed.
11 Stoga je Jahve doveo na njih vojskovođe asirskoga kralja. Uhvativši Manašea kukama, svezali su ga u dvoje mjedene verige i odveli u Babilon.
Therefore Jehovah brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
12 Kad se našao u nevolji, počeo se moliti za milost Jahvi, svome Bogu, ponizivši se veoma pred Bogom otaca.
And when he was in distress, he besought Jehovah his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.
13 Molio se i Bog mu se smilovao te usliša njegovu prošnju i vrati ga u Jeruzalem u kraljevstvo. Manaše tada spozna da je Jahve Bog.
And he prayed to him. And he was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that Jehovah he was God.
14 Poslije toga sagradio je vanjski zid Davidovu gradu zapadno od Gihona, od doline pa do Ribljih vrata, i opasao zidom Ofel, izvevši ga vrlo visoko. Postavio je bojne vojvode u svim tvrdim gradovima u Judi.
Now after this he built an outer wall to the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entrance at the fish gate. And he encompassed Ophel around with it, and raised it up to a very great height. And he put valiant captains in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15 Osim toga, uklonio je iz Jahvina Doma tuđinske bogove, onaj idolski lik i sve žrtvenike što ih bijaše posagradio na gori Jahvina Doma i u Jeruzalemu i sve ih baci izvan grada.
And he took away the foreign gods, and the idol out of the house of Jehovah, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of Jehovah, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
16 Zatim opet podiže Jahvin žrtvenik i žrtvova na njemu žrtve pričesnice i zahvalnice. Zapovjedi i Judejcima da služe Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu.
And he built up the altar of Jehovah, and offered on it sacrifices of peace offerings and of thanksgiving, and commanded Judah to serve Jehovah, the God of Israel.
17 Ipak je narod još žrtvovao po uzvišicama, ali samo Jahvi, svojem Bogu.
Nevertheless the people still sacrificed in the high places, but only to Jehovah their God.
18 Ostala Manašeova djela i njegova molitva Bogu, riječi koje su mu govorili vidioci u ime Jahve, Izraelova Boga, zapisane su u Povijesti izraelskih kraljeva.
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, behold, they are written among the acts of the kings of Israel.
19 Njegova molitva i kako je bio uslišan, svi njegovi grijesi i njegova nevjera te mjesta na kojima je pogradio uzvišice, podigao ašere i idole prije nego što se ponizio - sve je to zapisano u povijesti Hozajevoj.
Also his prayer, and how God was entreated by him, and all his sin and his trespass, and the places in which he built high places, and set up the Asherim and the graven images, before he humbled himself, behold, they are written in the history of Hozai.
20 Tada Manaše počinu kraj svojih otaca. Sahranili su ga u dvoru. Na njegovo se mjesto zakraljio sim mu Amon.
So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. And Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21 Dvadeset su i dvije godine bile Amonu kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je dvije godine u Jeruzalemu.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
22 Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, kao i otac mu Manaše, jer je svim idolima koje bijaše načinio njegov otac Manaše on prinosio žrtve i služio im.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father. And Amon sacrificed to all the graven images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them.
23 Ali se nije ponizio pred Jahvom kako se ponizio otac mu Manaše, nego je još i umnožio svoju krivicu.
And he did not humble himself before Jehovah, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself, but this same Amon trespassed more and more.
24 Tada se protiv njega urotiše njegove sluge i ubiše ga u dvoru.
And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death in his own house.
25 Ali je prosti puk pobio sve one koji se bijahu urotili protiv kralja Amona i na njegovo mjesto zakraljio sina mu Jošiju.
But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against king Amon. And the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
