2 Kronická 26
1 Tedy všecken lid Judský vzali Uziáše, kterýž byl v šestnácti letech, a ustanovili jej za krále na místě otce jeho Amaziáše.
After King Amaziah died, all the people of Judah appointed his son Uzziah, who then was 16 years old, as their king. [One of the things that happened] while he was the king [was that] his men captured Elath [town on the Gulf of Aqaba] and rebuilt it.
2 Onť jest vzdělal Elot, a dobyl ho zase Judovi, když již umřel král s otci svými.
3 V šestnácti letech byl Uziáš, když kralovati počal, a kraloval padesáte a dvě létěv Jeruzalémě. Jméno pak matky jeho Jecholia z Jeruzaléma.
Uzziah ruled in Jerusalem for 52 years. His mother was Jecoliah; she was from Jerusalem.
4 Ten činil to, což pravého bylo před očima Hospodinovýma, podlé všeho, což byl činil Amaziáš otec jeho.
Uzziah did things that Yahweh considered to be good, like his father Amaziah had done.
5 A hledal s pilností Boha ve dnech Zachariáše, rozumějícího vidění Božímu, a po ty dny, v nichž hledal Hospodina, šťastný prospěch dal jemu Bůh.
He tried to please God while [the priest] Zechariah was living, because Zechariah taught him to revere God. As long as Uzziah tried to please God, God enabled him to be successful.
6 Nebo vytáh, bojoval proti Filistinským, a probořil zed města Gát, a zed města Jabne, i zed města Azotu, a vystavěl města okolo Azotu, i v zemi Filistinské.
Uzziah and his army started to fight against the army of Philistia. They tore down the walls of Gath, Jabneh, and Ashdod [cities]. Then they rebuilt the towns near Ashdod and in other places in Philistia.
7 Bůh zajisté pomáhal jemu proti Filistinským a proti Arabským, kteříž bydlili v Gurbal, i proti Maonitským.
God helped them to fight the army of Philistia and the Arabs who lived in [the town of] Gur-Baal and the descendants of Meun who had come to that area from Edom.
8 I dávali Ammonitští dary Uziášovi, a rozneslo se jméno jeho až do Egypta; nebo zsilil se na nejvyšší.
Even the Ammon [people-group] paid taxes to Uzziah each year. So Uzziah became famous as far as the border of Egypt, because he had become very powerful.
9 A vzdělal Uziáš věže v Jeruzalémě u brány úhlové, a u brány údolí, a u Mikzoa, i upevnil je.
Uzziah’s [workers] built watchtowers in Jerusalem at the Corner Gate, at the Valley Gate, and at the place where the wall turns, and they placed weapons in them.
10 Vystavěl také věže na poušti, a vykopal studnic mnoho, proto že měl stád mnoho, jakož při údolí tak i na rovinách, oráče tolikéž a vinaře po horách i na místech úrodných; nebo laskav byl na rolí.
They also built watchtowers in the desert and dug many wells. They did that [to provide water] for a lot of the king’s cattle that were in the foothills and in the plains. Uzziah liked farming, so he also stationed workers [to take care of] his fields and vineyards in the hills and in the fertile areas.
11 Měl také Uziáš vojsko bojovníků, vycházejících k boji po houfích v jistém počtu, jakž vyčteni byli od Jehiele kanclíře, a Maaseiáše úředníka, uvedené pod správu Chananiášovi knížeti královskému.
Uzziah’s army was trained for fighting battles. They were in groups that were always ready to go into battle. Jeiel, the king’s secretary, and Maaseiah, one of the army officers, counted the men and placed them in groups. Hananiah, one of the king’s officials, was their commander.
12 Všecken počet knížat čeledí otcovských, mužů udatných, dva tisíce a šest set.
There were 2,600 leaders of those groups of soldiers.
13 A pod spravou jejich lidu válečného třikrát sto tisíc, sedm tisíc a pět set bojovníků udatných, aby pomáhali králi proti nepříteli.
In the groups that those leaders commanded there were a total of 307,500 well-trained soldiers. It was a very powerful army which was ready to help the king fight against his enemies.
14 Připravil pak Uziáš všemu tomu vojsku pavézy, kopí, lebky, pancíře, lučiště i kamení prakové.
Uzziah gave to each soldier a shield, a spear, a helmet, a vest made of iron plates, a bow [and arrows], and a slingshot.
15 Nadělal také v Jeruzalémě vtipně vymyšlených nástrojů válečných, aby byli na věžech a na úhlech k střílení střelami a kamením velikým. I rozneslo se jméno jeho daleko, proto že divné pomoci měl, až se i zmocnil.
In Jerusalem his skilled workers made machines to put on the watchtowers and on the corners [of the walls], to shoot arrows and to hurl large stones. He became very famous even in distant places, because God helped him very much and enabled him to become very powerful.
16 Ale když se zmocnil, pozdvihlo se srdce jeho k zahynutí jeho, a zhřešil proti Hospodinu Bohu svému; nebo všel do chrámu Hospodinova, aby kadil na oltáři, na němž se kadívalo.
But because Uzziah was very powerful, he became very proud, and that led to his being punished. He disobeyed what Yahweh his God had commanded. He went into the temple to burn incense on the altar [where God had said that only the priests should burn] incense.
17 I všel za ním Azariáš kněz, a s ním jiných kněží Hospodinových osmdesáte, mužů udatných.
Azariah the [Supreme] Priest and 80 other brave priests followed him into the temple.
18 Kteříž postavili se proti Uziášovi králi, a mluvili jemu: Ne tobě, Uziáši, náleží kaditi Hospodinu, ale kněžím, synům Aronovým, kteříž posvěceni jsou, aby kadili. Vyjdiž z svatyně, nebo jsi zhřešil, aniž to bude tobě ke cti před Hospodinem Bohem.
They rebuked him and said to him, “Uzziah, it is not right for you to burn incense to [honor] Yahweh. That duty is only for the priests, those who are descendants of Aaron [our first Supreme Priest]! You must leave [immediately], because you have disobeyed Yahweh our God, and he will not honor you [for what you have done]!”
19 Pročež rozhněval se Uziáš, (v ruce pak své měl kadidlnici, aby kadil). A když se spouzel na kněží, ukázalo se malomocenství na čele jeho před kněžími v domě Hospodinově u oltáře, na němž se kadilo.
Uzziah had in his hand a pan for burning incense. He became very angry with the priests, but suddenly there was leprosy on his forehead.
20 A pohleděv na něj Azariáš, nejvyšší kněz, a všickni kněží, a aj, byl malomocný na čele svém. Protož rychle jej vyvedli ven, nýbrž i sám se nutil vyjíti, proto že ho ranil Hospodin.
When Azariah the [Supreme] Priest and all the other priests [who were there] looked at him, they saw the leprosy on his forehead, so they quickly took him outside. And truly the king was eager to leave the temple, because he knew that it was Yahweh who had caused him to have that leprosy, [and he did not want it to become worse.]
21 A tak byl Uziáš král malomocný až do dne smrti své, a bydlil v domě obzvláštním, jsa malomocný; nebo byl vyobcován z domu Hospodinova. Mezi tím Jotam syn jeho byl nad domem královským, soudě lid země.
King Uzziah had leprosy until he died. And because he had leprosy, he lived in a house that was not near other houses, and he was not allowed to enter [the courtyard of] the temple. His son Jotham supervised the palace and ruled the people of Judah.
22 O jiných pak věcech Uziášových, prvních i posledních, psal Izaiáš prorok, syn Amosův.
A record of all the other things that Uzziah did while he was the king [of Judah] was written by the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz.
23 I usnul Uziáš s otci svými, a pochovali jej s otci jeho na poli hrobů královských; nebo řekli: Malomocný jest. I kraloval Jotam syn jeho místo něho.
Because Uzziah was a leper, [when he died, ] they would not bury him in the tombs where the other kings were buried. Instead, he was buried in a nearby cemetery that the kings owned. Then his son Jotham became the king [of Judah].
