< 2 Chronicles 28 >
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
Aház je bil star dvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval šestnajst let, toda ni delal tega, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, kakor njegov oče David.
2 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even made cast images of the Baals.
Kajti hodil je po poteh Izraelovih kraljev in prav tako je naredil ulite podobe za Báale.
3 Moreover, Ahaz burned incense in the Valley of Hinnom and sacrificed his sons in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
Poleg tega je zažigal kadilo v dolini Hinómovega sina in svoje otroke sežigal v ognju, po ogabnostih poganov, ki jih je Gospod pregnal pred Izraelovimi otroki.
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
Tudi daroval je in zažigal kadilo na visokih krajih, na hribih in pod vsakim zelenim drevesom.
5 So the LORD his God delivered Ahaz into the hand of the king of Aram, who attacked him and took many captives to Damascus. Ahaz was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who struck him with great force.
Zato ga je Gospod, njegov Bog, izročil v roko sirskega kralja in udarili so ga in izmed njih odvedli veliko množico ujetnikov in jih privedli v Damask. Izročen je bil tudi v roko Izraelovega kralja, ki ga je udaril z velikim pokolom.
6 For in one day Pekah son of Remaliah killed 120,000 valiant men in Judah. This happened because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Kajti Remaljájev sin Pékah jih je v Judu v enem dnevu ubil sto dvajset tisoč, ki so bili vsi hrabri možje, ker so zapustili Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
7 Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the son of the king, Azrikam the governor of the palace, and Elkanah the second to the king.
Zihrí, mogočen mož iz Efrájima, je usmrtil kraljevega sina Maasejája, voditelja hiše Azrikáma in Elkanája, ki je bil poleg kralja.
8 Then the Israelites took 200,000 captives from their kinsmen—women, sons, and daughters. They also carried off a great deal of plunder and brought it to Samaria.
Izraelovi otroci so odvedli ujetnike izmed njihovih bratov, dvesto tisoč žensk, sinov in hčera ter od njih odvzeli tudi mnogo plena in plen prinesli v Samarijo.
9 But a prophet of the LORD named Oded was there, and he went out to meet the army that returned to Samaria. “Look,” he said to them, “because of His wrath against Judah, the LORD, the God of your fathers, has delivered them into your hand. But you have slaughtered them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.
Toda tam je bil Gospodov prerok, katerega ime je bilo Odéd in ta je šel ven pred vojsko, ki je prišla do Samarije ter jim rekel: »Glejte, ker je bil Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, besen na Juda, jih je izročil v vašo roko in vi ste jih umorili v besnenju, ki sega do nebes.
10 And now you intend to reduce to slavery the men and women of Judah and Jerusalem. But are you not also guilty before the LORD your God?
In sedaj ste se namenili, da obdržite Judove in jeruzalemske otroke, podrejene sebi za sužnje in sužnjice. Toda ali niso z vami, celo z vami, grehi zoper Gospoda, vašega Boga?
11 Now therefore, listen to me and return the captives you took from your kinsmen, for the fierce anger of the LORD is upon you.”
Sedaj me torej poslušajte in ponovno osvobodite ujetnike, ki ste jih zajeli izmed svojih bratov, kajti nad vami je ogorčen Gospodov bes.
12 Then some of the leaders of the Ephraimites —Azariah son of Jehohanan, Berechiah son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai—stood in opposition to those arriving from the war.
Potem so nekateri izmed poglavarjev Efrájimovih otrok, Johanánov sin Azarjá, Mešilemótov sin Berehjá, Šalúmov sin Hizkijá in Hadlájev sin Amasá vstali zoper tiste, ki so prišli iz vojne
13 “You must not bring the captives here,” they said, “for you are proposing to bring guilt upon us from the LORD and to add to our sins and our guilt. For our guilt is great, and fierce anger is upon Israel.”
ter jim rekli: »Ujetnikov ne boste privedli sèm, kajti kakor smo že grešili zoper Gospoda, ste se vi namenili, da dodate še več k našim grehom in k našemu prestopku, kajti naš prestopek je velik in zoper Izraela je ogorčen bes.
14 So the armed men left the captives and the plunder before the leaders and all the assembly.
Tako so oboroženi možje pustili ujetnike in plen pred princi in pred vso skupnostjo.
15 Then the men who were designated by name arose, took charge of the captives, and provided from the plunder clothing for the naked. They clothed them, gave them sandals and food and drink, anointed their wounds, and put all the feeble on donkeys. So they brought them to Jericho, the City of Palms, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
Možje, ki so bili določeni po imenu, so vstali, vzeli ujetnike in s plenom oblekli vse, ki so bili med njimi nagi, jih odeli, obuli, jim dali jesti in piti ter jih mazilili in vse slabotne med njimi odvedli na oslih ter jih privedli do Jerihe, mesta palmovih dreves, do njihovih bratov. Potem so se vrnili v Samarijo.
16 At that time King Ahaz sent for help from the king of Assyria.
Ob tistem času je kralj Aház poslal k asirskim kraljem, da mu pomagajo.
17 The Edomites had again come and attacked Judah and carried away captives.
Kajti Edómci so ponovno prišli in udarili Juda in odvedli ujetnike.
18 The Philistines had also raided the cities of the foothills and the Negev of Judah, capturing and occupying Beth-shemesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth, as well as Soco, Timnah, and Gimzo with their villages.
Filistejci so vdrli tudi v mesta spodnje dežele in jug Juda in zavzeli Bet Šemeš, Ajalón, Gederót, Sohó in njegove vasi, Timno z njenimi vasmi, tudi Gimzó in njegove vasi in tam prebivali.
19 For the LORD humbled Judah because Ahaz king of Israel had thrown off restraint in Judah and had been most unfaithful to the LORD.
Kajti Gospod je ponižal Juda zaradi Izraelovega kralja Aháza, kajti ta je slekel Juda in se hudo pregrešil zoper Gospoda.
20 Then Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came to Ahaz but afflicted him rather than strengthening him.
K njemu je prišel asirski kralj Tiglát Pilnéser in ga stiskal, toda ni ga okrepil.
21 Although Ahaz had taken a portion from the house of the LORD, from the royal palace, and from the princes and had presented it to the king of Assyria, it did not help him.
Kajti Aház je odvzel delež iz Gospodove hiše in iz kraljeve hiše in od princev in to dal asirskemu kralju, toda ta mu ni pomagal.
22 In the time of his distress, King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the LORD.
V času svoje stiske je še bolj grešil zoper Gospoda. To je ta kralj Aház.
23 Since Damascus had defeated him, he sacrificed to their gods and said, “Because the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me.” But these gods were the downfall of Ahaz and of all Israel.
Kajti žrtvoval je bogovom Damaska, ki so ga udarili in rekel: »Ker so jim pomagali bogovi sirskih kraljev, zato bom žrtvoval njim, da bi mi lahko pomagali.« Toda oni so bili propad njemu in vsemu Izraelu.
24 Then Ahaz gathered up the articles of the house of God, cut them into pieces, shut the doors of the house of the LORD, and set up altars of his own on every street corner in Jerusalem.
Aház je zbral skupaj posode iz Božje hiše, razbil na koščke posode iz Božje hiše in zaprl vrata Gospodove hiše ter si naredil oltarje na vsakem jeruzalemskem vogalu.
25 In every city of Judah he built high places to offer incense to other gods, and so he provoked the LORD, the God of his fathers.
V vsakem posameznem Judovem mestu je postavil visoke kraje, da zažigajo kadilo drugim bogovom in do jeze dražijo Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
26 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz and all his ways, from beginning to end, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
Torej ostala njegova dela in vse njegove poti, prve in zadnje, glej, zapisane so v knjigi Judovih in Izraelovih kraljev.
27 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of Jerusalem, but he was not placed in the tombs of the kings of Israel. And his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
Aház je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopali so ga v mestu, torej v Jeruzalemu. Toda niso ga prinesli v mavzoleje Izraelovih kraljev. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Ezekíja.
