2 Kraljevima 21
1 Manašeu je bilo dvanaest godina kad se zakraljio. Pedeset i pet godina kraljevao je u Jeruzalemu. Njegova se majka zvala Hefsi-Bah.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Hephzi–bah.
2 Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, povodeći se za gnusobama naroda što ih je Jahve protjerao pred Izraelovim sinovima.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yhwh, after the abominations of the heathen, whom Yhwh cast out before the children of Israel.
3 Obnovio je uzvišice što ih bijaše oborio otac mu Ezekija, podigao je žrtvenik Baalu, načinio ašere kako bijaše učinio izraelski kralj Ahab; i stao se klanjati svoj vojsci nebeskoj i služiti joj.
For he built up again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped 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 moje Ime zauvijek.”
And he built altars in the house of Yhwh, of which Yhwh said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.
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 Yhwh.
6 I sinove je svoje proveo kroz oganj. Vračao je, gatao, stvorio bajače i opsjenare, učinio je premnogo zla u očima Jahve i razjarivao ga.
And he made his son pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much wickedness in the sight of Yhwh, to provoke him to anger.
7 Dao je načiniti lik Ašere i posadio ga u Domu, za koji Jahve bijaše rekao Davidu i njegovu sinu Salomonu: “U ovom Domu i u Jeruzalemu, koji sam izabrao među svim izraelskim plemenima, postavit ću svoje Ime zauvijek.
And he set a graven image of the grove that he had made in the house, of which Yhwh said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
8 Neću više dati da noga Izraelaca uzmakne iz zemlje koju sam dao u baštinu njihovim očevima, samo ako budu držali i provodili u djelo sve što sam im zapovjedio: Zakon što im ga je objavio moj sluga Mojsije.”
Neither will I make the feet of Israel move any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.
9 Ali oni nisu poslušali, Manaše ih je zaveo te su radili još gore nego narodi što ih je Jahve iskorijenio pred Izraelovim sinovima.
But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do more evil than did the nations whom Yhwh destroyed before the children of Israel.
10 Tada je Jahve ovako govorio preko slugu svojih proroka:
And Yhwh spake by his servants the prophets, saying,
11 “Zato što je judejski kralj Manaše činio te gnusobe, zato što je učinio više zla nego što su prije njega radili Amorejci i što je zaveo Judejce svojim idolima,
Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, which were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols:
12 ovako veli Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Evo, učinit ću da dođe nevolja na Jeruzalem i Judeju, takva da će zazujati oba uha onima koji o njoj čuju.
Therefore thus saith Yhwh God of Israel, Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
13 Nategnut ću nad Jeruzalemom isto uže kao nad Samarijom, isto mjerilo kao nad kućom Ahabovom; zbrisat ću Jeruzalem kao što se briše zdjela pa se tad izvrne.
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it upside down.
14 Odbacit ću ostatke svoje baštine, predat ću ih u ruke njihovih neprijatelja; služit će za plijen i grabež svim svojim neprijateljima
And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
15 jer su činili što je zlo u mojim očima jer su izazivali moj gnjev od dana kada su njihovi oci izišli iz Egipta pa sve do danas.'”
Because they have done that which was evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.
16 I mnogo je nedužne krvi prolio Manaše, tako da se njome napunio Jeruzalem od jednoga kraja do drugoga, da se i ne spominje njegov grijeh kojim je zaveo Judu da čini što je zlo u očima Jahvinim.
Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Yhwh.
17 Ostala povijest Manašeova, njegova djela i grijesi koje je počinio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa judejskih kraljeva?
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
18 Manaše je počinuo kraj svojih otaca i sahranjen je u vrtu svojeg dvora, u vrtu Uzinu. Sin mu Amon zakralji se mjesto njega.
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
19 Amonu bijahu dvadeset i dvije godine kad je zavladao, a kraljevao je dvije godine u Jeruzalemu. Njegova se majka zvala Mešulemet, kći Harusova, i bila je iz Jotbe.
Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20 On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, kao što je činio njegov otac Manaše.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Yhwh, as his father Manasseh did.
21 U svemu je slijedio put svoga oca, služio je idolima kojima je služio i njegov otac i klanjao im se.
And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them:
22 On je ostavio Jahvu, Boga svojih praotaca, i nije hodio putem Jahvinim.
And he forsook Yhwh God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of Yhwh.
23 Amonovi se časnici urotiše protiv njega i ubiše kralja u dvoru.
And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the king in his own house.
24 Ali je prosti puk pobio sve one koji se bijahu urotili protiv kralja Amona i na njegovo mjesto zakraljio sina mu Jošiju.
And the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
25 Ostala povijest Amonova i sve što je činio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa judejskih kraljeva?
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
26 Pokopali su ga u grobnicu njegova oca, u vrtu Uzinu, a njegov sin Jošija zakralji se mjesto njega.
And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.
