2 Kraljevima 12
1 Sedme godine Jehuova kraljevanja Joaš je postao kraljem i kraljevao je četrdeset godina u Jeruzalemu. Majka mu se zvala Sibja i bila je iz Beer Šebe.
In the seventh year of Jehu, began Jehoash to reign, and, forty years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
2 Joaš je činio što je pravo u očima Jahve svega svog vijeka jer ga je poučavao svećenik Jojada.
And Jehoash did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh all his days, —whereunto, Jehoiada the priest, instructed him:
3 Ali uzvišica nisu srušili i narod je svejednako prinosio žrtve i kad na uzvišicama.
save only, that, the high places, took they not away, —still were the people sacrificing and burning incense in the high places.
4 Joaš reče svećenicima: “Sav novac od posvećenih darova što se donosi u Dom Jahvin, novac koji je nekomu nametnut procjenom i novac što ga tko od svoje volje donose u Dom Jahvin
And Jehoash said unto the priests, —All the silver of the hallowed things, that is brought into the house of Yahweh—the silver of one who transgresseth, the silver of [their] persons by the estimate of, each one, —all the silver which it cometh into any man’s heart to bring into the house of Yahweh,
5 neka svećenici uzimaju svaki od svoga znanca i oni neka tim poprave Dom gdje god se nađe koje oštećenje.”
let the priests take to them, every one from his acquaintance, —and let, them, repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever there may be found a breach.
6 Ali u dvadeset i trećoj godini kraljevanja Joaševa svećenici nisu još popravili Doma.
But it came to pass, that, in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
7 Tada kralj Joaš pozva svećenika Jojadu i druge svećenike i reče im: “Zašto ne popravljate Dom? Odsad ne smijete više sebi uzimati novac od svojih znanaca nego ga morate dati za popravak Doma.”
So King Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and for the other priests, and said unto them—Why are ye not repairing the breaches of the house? Now, therefore, do not take silver from your acquaintances, for, to [repair] the breaches of the house, ought ye to have given it?
8 Svećenici pristadoše da ne uzimaju novac od naroda, ali ni Doma da ne popravljaju.
The priests therefore consented, not to take silver from the people, and not to repair the breaches of the house.
9 Tada svećenik Jojada uze kovčeg, proreza rupu na zaklopcu i stavi ga uza žrtvenik, zdesna od ulaza u Dom Jahvin. Svećenici, čuvari praga, stavljali su u nj sav novac sabran u Domu Jahvinu.
Then took Jehoiada a certain chest, and bored a hole in the door thereof, —and set it beside the altar, on the right as one entereth into the house of Yahweh, and the priests that kept the entrance-hall, used to put therein—all the silver that was brought into the house of Yahweh.
10 Kad bi se vidjelo da u kovčegu ima mnogo novaca, došao bi kraljev tajnik s velikim svećenikom te bi prebrojili i zavezali novac koji se nalazio u Domu Jahvinu.
And it came to pass, when they saw that there was much silver in the chest, that the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and brought together and counted the silver that was found in the house of Yahweh;
11 Prebrojeni novac uručivao se upraviteljima poslova oko popravka Doma Jahvina, a oni su isplaćivali drvodjeljama i graditeljima koji su radili u Domu Jahvinu
then used they to give the silver that had been weighed out, into the hands of the doers of the work, who had oversight of the house of Yahweh, —and they brought it forth, to the carpenters, and to the builders, who were working upon the house of Yahweh;
12 i zidarima i klesačima kamena, i za nabavu drveta i tesanog kamena određena za popravak Doma Jahvina, ukratko: za troškove oko popravka Doma.
and to the masons, and to the hewers of stone, and to buy timber, and hewn stone, for repairing the breaches of the house of Yahweh, —and to every one that went out upon the house, to repair it.
13 Ali u Domu Jahvinu nisu se pravile srebrne čaše, ni noževi, ni plitice, ni trube, niti bilo kakav predmet od zlata ili srebra za novac koji je darovan,
Howbeit there were not made for the house of Yahweh, bowls of silver, snuffers, dashing basins, trumpets, any vessel of gold, or any vessel of silver, —out of the silver that was brought into the house of Yahweh;
14 nego su ga davali radnicima koje su najmili za popravak Jahvina Doma.
for, to the doers of the work, used they to give it; and so they repaired, therewith, the house of Yahweh.
15 Nije se tražio obračun od ljudi kojima su predavali novac da ga daju radnicima, jer su oni radili savjesno.
And they used not to reckon with the men into whose hands they gave the silver, to give it to the doers of the work, because, with faithfulness, were, they, dealing.
16 Novac naknadnice i okajnice nije se unosio u Dom Jahvin, nego je pripao svećenicima.
Silver for guilt-offerings and silver for sin-offerings, was not brought into the house of Yahweh, —to the priests, they belonged.
17 Tada Hazael, aramejski kralj, pođe u rat protiv Gata i osvoji ga. Zatim odluči poći protiv Jeruzalema.
Then, came up Hazael, king of Syria, and fought against Gath, and captured it, —so Hazael set his face to go up against Jerusalem.
18 Joaš, judejski kralj, uze sve posvećene darove koje su posvetili judejski kraljevi, njegovi oci: Jošafat, Joram i Ahazja, sve što je sam prikazao i sve zlato koje se našlo u riznicima Doma Jahvina i kraljevskog dvora. Sve to posla Hazaelu, aramejskom kralju, i tako se ovaj udalji od Jeruzalema.
Therefore did Jehoash, king of Judah, take all the hallowed things which Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had hallowed, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasuries of the house of Yahweh and the house of the king, —and sent to Hazael king of Syria, so he went up from against Jerusalem.
19 Ostala povijest Joaševa i sve što je učinio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva judejskih?
Now, the rest of the story of Joash, and all that he did, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
20 Njegovi časnici ustadoše i skovaše zavjeru; ubiše Joaša u Bet Milu kad je u nj silazio.
And his servants arose and made a conspiracy, and smote Joash, in the house of Millo which teeth down to Silla.
21 Njegovi časnici Jozakar, sin Šimatov, i Jozabad, sin Šomerov, zadaše mu smrtni udarac. Pokopali su ga kraj njegovih otaca u Davidovu gradu, a njegov sin Amasja zakralji se mjesto njega.
Yea, Jozabar son of Shimeath and Jehozabad son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, that he died, and he was buried with his fathers, in the city of David, —and, Amaziah his son, reigned in his stead.
