2 Chronicles 34
1 Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years.
Jošiji je bilo osam godina kad se zakraljio. Kraljevao je trideset i jednu godinu u Jeruzalemu.
2 And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD and walked in the ways of his father David; he did not turn aside to the right or to the left.
Činio je što je pravo u Jahvinim očima. U svemu je hodio putovima oca Davida, ne skrećući ni desno ni lijevo.
3 In the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, Josiah began to seek the God of his father David, and in the twelfth year he began to cleanse Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the Asherah poles, the carved idols, and the cast images.
Osme godine kraljevanja, dok još bijaše dječak, počeo je tražiti Boga oca Davida, a dvanaeste je godine stao čistiti Judeju i Jeruzalem od uzvišica, ašera, od rezanih i livenih likova.
4 Then in his presence the altars of the Baals were torn down, and he cut to pieces the incense altars that were above them. He shattered the Asherah poles, the carved idols, and the cast images, crushed them to dust, and scattered them over the graves of those who had sacrificed to them.
Pred njim su oborili žrtvenike Baalu, polomio je sunčane stupove koji bijahu na njima; izlomio je i satro ašere i rezane i livene likove, prosuo ih po grobovima onih što su im prinosili žrtve.
5 Then he burned the bones of the priests on their altars. So he cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.
Svećeničke je kosti spalio na njihovim žrtvenicima i tako očistio Judeju i Jeruzalem.
6 Josiah did the same in the cities of Manasseh, Ephraim, and Simeon, as far as Naphtali, and in the ruins around them.
Isto je učinio i po gradovima Manašeova, Efrajimova i Šimunova plemena, pa do Naftalijeva, po njihovim opustošenim mjestima unaokolo.
7 He tore down the altars and Asherah poles, crushed the idols to powder, and cut to pieces all the incense altars throughout the land of Israel. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
Oborio je žrtvenike i ašere, raskovao i satro rezane likove i isjekao sve sunčane stupove po svoj zemlji izraelskoj, a onda se vratio u Jeruzalem.
8 Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, in order to cleanse the land and the temple, Josiah sent Shaphan son of Azaliah, Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah son of Joahaz, the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.
Osamnaeste godine kraljevanja, očistivši zemlju i Dom, posla Asalijahina sina Šafana, gradskoga upravitelja Maaseju, Johazova sina Joaha, tajnika, da poprave Dom Jahve, njegova Boga.
9 So they went to Hilkiah the high priest and gave him the money that had been brought into the house of God, which the Levites at the doors had collected from the people of Manasseh and Ephraim, from all the remnant of Israel, Judah, and Benjamin, and from the people of Jerusalem.
Oni su došli k velikom svećeniku Hilkiji i predali mu novce donesene u Božji Dom, koje bijahu sabrali leviti, čuvari hramskog praga, iz ruke Manašeovih i Efrajimovih sinova i od svega Izraelova Ostatka, od svega Judina i Benjaminova plemena, od jeruzalemskih stanovnika.
10 They put it into the hands of the supervisors of those doing the work of the house of the LORD, who in turn gave it to the workmen restoring and repairing the house of the LORD.
Dali su to na ruku poslovođama, postavljenim nad Domom Jahvinim, a oni su izdavali poslenicima koji su radili u Domu Jahvinu, popravljajući što je bilo trošno i obnavljajući Hram.
11 They also gave money to the carpenters and builders to buy dressed stone, as well as timbers for couplings and beams for the buildings that the kings of Judah had allowed to deteriorate.
Dali su drvodjeljama i graditeljima da kupuju tesanac i drvo za grede i da se pobrvnaju kuće koje bijahu porušili judejski kraljevi.
12 And the men did the work faithfully. The Levites overseeing them were Jahath and Obadiah, descendants of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, descendants of Kohath. Other Levites, all skilled with musical instruments,
Ti su ljudi savjesno obavljali posao; nad njima su bili postavljeni Jahat i Obadja, leviti od Merarijevih sinova, i Zaharija i Mešulam od Kehatovih sinova da upravljaju radom. Svi su leviti bili vični glazbalima.
13 were over the laborers and supervised all who did the work, task by task. Some of the Levites were secretaries, officers, and gatekeepers.
Jedni su bili nad bremenošama i nadstojnicima svih poslenika u svakoj službi, a drugi su od levita bili pisari, nadzornici i vratari.
14 While they were bringing out the money that had been taken into the house of the LORD, Hilkiah the priest found the Book of the Law of the LORD written by Moses.
Kad su iznosili novce donesene u Jahvin Dom, našao je svećenik Hilkija Knjigu Zakona Jahvina, danu preko Mojsija.
15 And Hilkiah said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the LORD!” And he gave it to Shaphan.
I, progovorivši, Hilkija reče tajniku Šafanu: “Našao sam Knjigu Zakona u Domu Jahvinu.” Hilkija dade knjigu Šafanu.
16 Then Shaphan brought the book to the king and reported, “Your servants are doing all that has been placed in their hands.
Šafan odnese knjigu kralju i izvjesti ga: “Tvoje sluge rade sve što im se povjerilo.
17 They have paid out the money that was found in the house of the LORD and have put it into the hands of the supervisors and workers.”
Izasuvši novce što su se našli u Domu Jahvinu, dadoše ih na ruku poslovođama i poslenicima.”
18 Moreover, Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” And Shaphan read it in the presence of the king.
Tada tajnik Šafan javi kralju: “Svećenik Hilkija dade mi jednu knjigu.” I Šafan je poče čitati pred kraljem.
19 When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore his clothes
Čuvši riječi Zakona, kralj razdrije haljine svoje.
20 and commanded Hilkiah, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the servant of the king:
I naredi Hilkiji, Šafanovu sinu Ahikamu, Mikinu sinu Abdonu, tajniku Šafanu i kraljevu sluzi Asaji:
21 “Go and inquire of the LORD for me and for those remaining in Israel and Judah concerning the words in the book that has been found. For great is the wrath of the LORD that has been poured out on us because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD by doing all that is written in this book.”
“Idite i upitajte Jahvu o meni i Ostatku Izraela i Judeje zbog ove knjige što je nađena, jer je velika Jahvina jarost što se izlila na nas zato što naši očevi nisu čuvali Jahvine riječi, nisu vršili što je pisano u knjizi.”
22 So Hilkiah and those the king had designated went and spoke to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, the keeper of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the Second District.
Hilkija s kraljevim ljudima ode proročici Huldi, ženi Šaluma, Tokhatova sina, sina Hasre, čuvara odjeće; ona je živjela u Jeruzalemu, u novom gradu. Kad joj to kazaše,
23 And Huldah said to them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Tell the man who sent you
ona im reče: “Ovako veli Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Kažite čovjeku koji vas je poslao k meni:
24 that this is what the LORD says: I am about to bring calamity on this place and on its people, according to all the curses written in the book that has been read in the presence of the king of Judah,
Ovako veli Jahve: Evo, dovest ću nesreću na ovaj grad i na njegove stanovnike, izvršit ću sve kletve napisane u knjizi što je pročitaše pred judejskim kraljem.
25 because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be poured out upon this place and will not be quenched.’
Jer su me ostavili i kadili tuđim bogovima da bi me ljutili svim djelima ruku svojih, planut će jarost moja na to mjesto i neće se ugasiti.
26 But as for the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘As for the words that you heard,
A judejskome kralju, koji vas je poslao po Jahvin savjet, recite ovo: Ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov: Riječi si čuo.
27 because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its people, and because you have humbled yourself before Me and you have torn your clothes and wept before Me, I have heard you,’ declares the LORD.
Ali kako ti je omekšalo srce i jer si se ponizio pred Bogom čuvši što sam objavio tome gradu i njegovim stanovnicima, i ponizivši se preda mnom, razdro si haljine i plakao, zato sam te uslišio - riječ je Jahvina!
28 ‘Now I will indeed gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the calamity that I will bring on this place and on its inhabitants.’” So they brought her answer back to the king.
Evo, sjedinit ću te s ocima tvojim i s mirom ćeš leći u grob da ne vidiš svu nesreću koju ću svaliti na ovo mjesto i njegove stanovnike.'” Oni odnesoše taj odgovor kralju.
29 Then the king summoned all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
Tada posla kralj da se saberu sve judejske i jeruzalemske starješine.
30 And he went up to the house of the LORD with all the people of Judah and Jerusalem, as well as the priests and the Levites—all the people small and great—and in their hearing he read all the words of the Book of the Covenant that had been found in the house of the LORD.
Kralj se potom pope u Dom Jahvin, sa svim Judejcima, Jeruzalemcima, svećenicima, levitima i sa svim narodom, od najvećega do najmanjeg. I pročita im sve riječi Knjige Saveza što je nađena u Domu Jahvinu.
31 So the king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before the LORD to follow the LORD and to keep His commandments, decrees, and statutes with all his heart and all his soul, and to carry out the words of this covenant that were written in this book.
Kralj, stojeći na svome mjestu, obnovi pred Jahvom Savez da će slijediti Jahvu, držati se njegovih zapovijedi, pouka i uredaba svim srcem i svom dušom da bi izvršio sve stavke toga Saveza što su napisane u knjizi.
32 Then he had everyone in Jerusalem and Benjamin take a stand in agreement to it. So all the people of Jerusalem carried out the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
I sve koji su se našli u Jeruzalemu i Benjaminovu plemenu pozva da pristupe; i Jeruzalemci prionuše uza Savez Boga, Boga svojih otaca.
33 And Josiah removed all the abominations from all the lands belonging to the Israelites, and he required everyone in Israel to serve the LORD their God. Throughout his reign they did not turn aside from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.
Tada Jošija ukloni sve gnusobe iz svih izraelskih krajeva i učini te svi koji su se našli u Izraelu počeše služiti Jahvi, svojem Bogu. Za svega njegova života nisu odstupili od Jahve, Boga svojih otaca.
