2 Královská 16
1 Sedmnáctého léta Pekacha syna Romeliova kraloval Achas syn Jotama, krále Judského.
When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost 17 years, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became the king of Judah.
2 Ve dvadcíti letech byl Achas, když kralovati počal, a šestnácte let kraloval v Jeruzalémě, ale nečinil toho, což pravého jest, před Hospodinem Bohem svým, jako David otec jeho.
He was 20 years old when he became the king [of Judah]. He ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. He did not do things that pleased Yahweh his God, good things like his ancestor King David had done.
3 Nýbrž chodil po cestě králů Izraelských; nadto i syna svého dal provésti skrze oheň vedlé ohavností pohanských, kteréž byl Hospodin vyplénil před oblíčejem synů Izraelských.
Instead, he was as sinful as the kings of Israel had been. He even sacrificed his son as an offering to idols. That was worse than the disgusting things that the people who previously lived there had done, people whom Yahweh had expelled as the Israelis were advancing through the land.
4 Obětoval také a kadil na výsostech a na pahrbcích, i pod každým stromem zeleným.
Ahaz offered sacrifices and burned incense [to honor Yahweh] on the tops of many hills and under many [HYP] big trees, [instead of in Jerusalem as Yahweh had commanded].
5 Tedy vytáhl Rezin král Syrský a Pekach syn Romeliášův, král Izraelský, proti Jeruzalému k boji, a oblehli Achasa. Ale nemohli ho dobyti.
While he was the king of Judah, King Rezin of Assyria and King Pekah of Israel [came with their armies] and attacked Jerusalem. They surrounded the city, but they could not conquer it.
6 (Toho času Rezin král Syrský odtrhl zase město Elat k Syrii, a vyplénil Židy z Elot; Syrští pak přišedše do Elat, bydlili tam až do dnešního dne.)
At that time the [army of the] king of Edom expelled the people of Judah who were living in Elath [city]. Some of the people of Edom started to live there, and they are still living there.
7 I poslal Achas posly k Tiglatfalazarovi králi Assyrskému, řka: Služebník tvůj a syn tvůj jsem, přitáhni a vysvoboď mne z ruky krále Syrského, a z ruky krále Izraelského, kteříž povstali proti mně.
King Ahaz sent messengers to King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria, to tell this message to him: “I promise that I will completely do what you tell me to do, [as though] I [was] your son. Please come and rescue us from the armies of Syria and Israel who are attacking my country.”
8 A pobrav Achas stříbro a zlato, kteréž se nalézti mohlo v domě Hospodinově a v pokladích domu královského, poslal králi Assyrskému dar.
Ahaz took the silver and gold that was in the palace and in the temple and sent it to Assyria to be a present/gift for the king of Assyria.
9 Tedy povolil jemu král Assyrský, a přitáhl k Damašku a dobyl ho, a přenesl obyvatele jeho do Kir, Rezina pak zabil.
So Tiglath-Pileser did what Ahaz requested. His army marched to Damascus and captured it, and they took the people of Damascus as prisoners to live in the capital city of Assyria, and executed [King] Rezin.
10 I vypravil se král Achas vstříc Tiglatfalazarovi králi Assyrskému do Damašku. A uzřev král Achas oltář v Damašku, poslal k Uriášovi knězi podobenství toho oltáře, a formu jeho vedlé všelikého díla jeho.
When King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet King Tiglath-Pileser, he saw the altar that was there. So he sent to Uriah, the Supreme Priest [in Jerusalem], a drawing of the altar and a model that was exactly like the altar in Damascus.
11 I vzdělal Uriáš kněz oltář vedlé všeho toho, což byl poslal král Achas z Damašku. Tak učinil kněz Uriáš, prvé než se vrátil král Achas z Damašku.
So Uriah built an altar [in Jerusalem], following the drawing that King Ahaz had sent. Uriah finished the altar before Ahaz returned [to Jerusalem] from Damascus.
12 Když se pak navrátil král z Damašku, uzřev ten oltář přistoupil k němu a obětoval na něm.
When the king returned from Damascus, he saw the altar. He went to it
13 A tak zapálil zápal svůj i suchou obět svou, a obětoval obět mokrou svou, a pokropil krví oltáře z pokojných obětí svých.
and burned animal sacrifices and a grain offering on it. He also poured a wine offering on it and threw on it the blood of the offerings to maintain fellowship with God.
14 Oltář pak měděný, kterýž byl před Hospodinem, přenesl z přední strany domu, aby nestál mezi oltářem jeho a mezi domem Hospodinovým, a postavil jej po boku oltáře svého k půlnoci.
The old bronze altar which had been dedicated long ago to Yahweh was between the new altar and the temple, so Ahaz moved it to the north side of his new altar, [which was bigger than the old altar].
15 I přikázal král Achas knězi Uriášovi, řka: Na větším oltáři obětuj zápaly jitřní, a obět suchou večerní, a obět zápalnou královskou s obětí suchou její, i obět zápalnou všeho lidu země, a oběti suché jejich, i oběti mokré jejich, a všelikou krví zápalu a všelikou krví oběti kropiti budeš na něj, oltář pak měděný bude mi k doptávání se Boha.
Then King Ahaz ordered Uriah: “Each morning put on this new altar the sacrifices that will be completely burned, and in the evening put on it the grain offering, along with my offering and the offerings that the people bring, ones that will be completely burned, and my grain offering and the people’s grain and wine offerings. Pour against the sides of the altar the blood of all the animals that are sacrificed. But the old bronze altar will be only for me to use to find out what Yahweh wants me to do.”
16 Tedy učinil Uriáš kněz všecko, jakž mu přikázal Achas.
So Uriah did what the king commanded him to do.
17 Osekal také král Achas přepásaní podstavků, a odjal od nich pánve, a moře složil s volů měděných, kteříž byli pod ním, a položil je na dlážení kamenné.
King Ahaz told his workers to take off the frames of the carts [that were outside the temple] and to take down the basins that were on them. They also took down the bronze tank from the backs of the bronze [statues of the] oxen and put it on a stone foundation.
18 Zastření také sobotní, kteréž byli udělali v domě, a vcházení královské z zevnitř odjal od domu Hospodinova, boje se krále Assyrského.
Then to please the king of Assyria, Ahaz had them remove from the temple the roof under which the people walked into the temple on the Sabbath Day, and closed up the private entrance into the temple for the kings of Judah.
19 Jiní pak skutkové krále Achasa, kteréž činil, zapsáni jsou v knize o králích Judských.
[If you want to know about] the other things that Ahaz did, they are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
20 I usnul Achas s otci svými, a pochován jest s nimi v městě Davidově, a kraloval Ezechiáš syn jeho místo něho.
Ahaz died [EUP], and he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Hezekiah became the king.
