< 2 Kronická 12 >
1 I stalo se, když utvrdil království Roboám a zmocnil je, opustil zákon Hospodinův, i všecken Izrael s ním.
After Rehoboam was in complete control of his kingdom, he and all [the other people in] Judah stopped obeying the laws of Yahweh.
2 Stalo se, pravím, léta pátého království Roboámova, že vytáhl Sesák král Egyptský proti Jeruzalému, (nebo byli zhřešili proti Hospodinu),
As a result, after Rehoboam had been king for almost five years, Yahweh sent Shishak, the king of Egypt, [with his army] to attack Jerusalem.
3 S tisícem a dvěma sty vozů, a s šedesáti tisíci jízdných, a nebylo počtu lidu, kterýž přitáhl s ním z Egypta, Lubimských, Sukkimských a Chussimských.
Along with his army he brought 1,200 chariots and 60,000 soldiers riding horses and a very large number of troops from two regions in Libya, and from Ethiopia.
4 A pobral města hrazená, kteráž byla v Judstvu, a přitáhl až k Jeruzalému.
They captured many of the cities in Judah that had walls around them, and they came as far as Jerusalem.
5 Tedy Semaiáš prorok přišel k Roboámovi a k knížatům Judským, kteříž se byli sebrali do Jeruzaléma, bojíce se Sesáka, a řekl jim: Toto praví Hospodin: Vy jste mne opustili, i já také opouštím vás v rukou Sesákových.
Then the prophet Shemaiah came to Rehoboam and the other leaders of Judah who had gathered in Jerusalem because they were afraid of [the army of] Shishak. Shemaiah said to them, “Yahweh says this: ‘You have abandoned me; so now I am abandoning you, to [allow you to be captured by the army of] Shishak.’”
6 I ponížili se knížata Izraelská i král, a řekli: Spravedlivýť jest Hospodin.
Then the king and the other Israeli leaders humbled themselves and said, “What Yahweh is doing to us is fair.”
7 A když viděl Hospodin, že se ponížili, stalo se slovo Hospodinovo k Semaiášovi, řkoucí: Ponížiliť jsou se, neshladím jich, ale dám jim tudíž vysvobození, aniž se vyleje prchlivost má na Jeruzalém skrze Sesáka.
When Yahweh realized that they had humbled themselves, he gave this message to Shemaiah: “Because they have humbled themselves, I will not allow them to be destroyed. Instead, I will soon rescue them. I will not use Shishak’s army to completely destroy the people of Jerusalem,
8 A však sloužiti jemu budou, aby zkusili, co jest to mně sloužiti, a sloužiti králům zemským.
but they will conquer Jerusalem and force the people there to do what Shishak wants them to do. As a result, the people of Jerusalem will learn [that it is better] to serve me than to serve the kings of other countries.”
9 A tak vstoupiv Sesák král Egytský do Jeruzaléma, pobral poklady domu Hospodinova, i poklady domu královského, všecko to pobral. Vzal i pavézy zlaté, kterýchž byl nadělal Šalomoun.
When Shishak’s [army] attacked Jerusalem, they took/carried away the valuable things that were in the temple of Yahweh and the valuable things that were in the king’s palace. They took everything [that was valuable], including the gold shields that Solomon’s [workers] had made.
10 I nadělal král Roboám místo nich pavéz měděných, a poručil je úředníkům nad drabanty, kteříž ostříhali brány domu královského.
So King Rehoboam’s workers made bronze shields to be used instead of the gold ones and gave the bronze shields to the commanders of the men who guarded the entrance to his palace.
11 A když král chodíval do domu Hospodinova, přicházívali drabanti a nosili je; potom též zase přinášeli je do pokoje drabantů.
After that, whenever the king went to the temple, the guards went with him, carrying those bronze shields. Then [when the king left, ] they would return the shields to the guards’ room.
12 Když se pak ponížil, odvrátila se od něho prchlivost Hospodinova, a neshladil ho do cela, tak jakož se k Judovi v dobrých věcech ohlašoval.
Because Rehoboam humbled himself, Yahweh stopped being angry with him and did not get rid of him. Instead, he caused good things to happen in Judah.
13 Tedy zmocnil se král Roboám v Jeruzalémě a kraloval; nebo ve čtyřidcíti a v jednom létě byl Roboám, když počal kralovati, a sedmnácte let kraloval v Jeruzalémě, městě, kteréž vyvolil Hospodin ze všech pokolení Izraelských, aby tam přebývalo jméno jeho. Jméno matky jeho bylo Naama Ammonitská.
King Rehoboam again was in complete control in Jerusalem and continued to be the king [of Judah]. He was 41 years old when he became the king. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem, which is the city that Yahweh had chosen from all the tribes in Israel to be the place in which people were to worship him.
14 Kterýž činil zlé věci; nebo neustavil srdce svého, aby hledal Hospodina.
Rehoboam’s mother’s name was Naamah. She was from the Ammon people-group. Rehoboam did evil things because he did not try to find out what Yahweh wanted him to do.
15 Věci pak Roboámovy, první i poslední, zdaž zapsány nejsou v knihách Semaiáše proroka, a Iddo proroka, kdež se vyčítá pořádek rodů, ano i války mezi Roboámem a Jeroboámem, po všecky dny?
An account of all the things that Rehoboam did while he was the king, and lists of the members of his family, are in the scrolls written by the prophets Shemaiah and Iddo. The armies of Rehoboam and Jeroboam were constantly fighting each other.
16 I usnul Roboám s otci svými, a pochován jest v městě Davidově, a kraloval Abiáš syn jeho místo něho.
When Rehoboam died, he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Abijah became the king.
