< 2 Chronicles 12 >

1 Now when Rehoboam's position as king had been made certain, and he was strong, he gave up the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
Pripetilo se je, ko je Rehabám utrdil kraljestvo in se okrepil, da je zapustil Gospodovo postavo in ves Izrael z njim.
2 Now in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem, because of their sin against the Lord,
Pripetilo se je, da je v petem letu kralja Rehabáma egiptovski kralj Šišák prišel gor zoper Jeruzalem, ker so se pregrešili zoper Gospoda,
3 With twelve hundred war-carriages and sixty thousand horsemen: and the people who came with him out of Egypt were more than might be numbered: Lubim and Sukkiim and Ethiopians.
s tisoč dvesto bojnimi vozovi in šestdeset tisoč konjeniki. Ljudstva, ki so prišli z njim iz Egipta, je bilo brez števila: Libijci, Súkijci in Etiopci.
4 And he took the walled towns of Judah, and came as far as Jerusalem.
Zavzel je utrjena mesta, ki pripadajo Judu in prišel do Jeruzalema.
5 Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the chiefs of Judah, who had come together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, The Lord has said, Because you have given me up, I have given you up into the hands of Shishak.
Potem je prišel prerok Šemajá k Rehabámu in k Judovim princem, ki so bili zaradi Šišáka zbrani skupaj v Jeruzalemu ter jim rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Vi ste zapustili mene in zato sem tudi jaz vas prepustil v Šišákovo roko.‹«
6 Then the chiefs of Israel and the king made themselves low and said, The Lord is upright.
Nakar so se Izraelovi princi in kralj ponižali ter rekli: » Gospod je pravičen.«
7 And the Lord, seeing that they had made themselves low, said to Shemaiah, They have made themselves low: I will not send destruction on them, but in a short time I will give them salvation, and will not let loose my wrath on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
Ko je Gospod videl, da so se ponižali, je beseda od Gospoda prišla k Šemajáju, rekoč: »Oni so se ponižali, zato jih ne bom uničil, temveč jim bom zagotovil nekaj osvoboditve, in moj bes ne bo izlit na Jeruzalem po Šišákovi roki.
8 But still they will become his servants, so that they may see how different my yoke is from the yoke of the kingdoms of the lands.
Kljub temu bodo njegovi služabniki, da bodo lahko spoznali moje služenje in služenje kraljestvom dežel.«
9 So Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem and took away all the stored wealth of the house of the Lord and the king's house: he took everything away, and with the rest the gold body-covers which Solomon had made.
Tako je egiptovski kralj Šišák prišel gor nad Jeruzalem in odnesel zaklade Gospodove hiše in zaklade kraljeve hiše. Vse je vzel. Odnesel je tudi ščite iz zlata, ki jih je naredil Salomon.
10 And in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.
Namesto teh je kralj Rehabám naredil ščite iz brona in jih predal v roke poveljnika straže, ki je varoval vhod kraljeve hiše.
11 And whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, the armed men went with him taking the body-covers, and then took them back to their room.
Ko je kralj vstopil v Gospodovo hišo, je prišla straža ter jih nosila in jih [potem] ponovno prinesla v stražarnico.
12 And when he made himself low, the wrath of the Lord was turned back from him, and complete destruction did not come on him, for there was still some good in Judah.
Ko se je ponižal, se je Gospodov bes odvrnil od njega, da ga ne bi povsem uničil. Tudi v Judu so stvari šle dobro.
13 So King Rehoboam made himself strong in Jerusalem and was ruling there. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was ruling for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the town which the Lord had made his out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there; and his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman.
Tako se je kralj Rehabám okrepil v Jeruzalemu in kraljeval, kajti Rehabám je bil star enainštirideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in sedemnajst let je kraljeval v Jeruzalemu, mestu, ki ga je Gospod izbral izmed vseh Izraelovih rodov, da tam postavi svoje ime. Ime njegove matere je bilo Naáma, Amónka.
14 And he did evil because his heart was not true to the Lord.
Počel je zlo, ker svojega srca ni pripravil, da išče Gospoda.
15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
Torej dejanja Rehabáma, prva in zadnja, mar niso zapisana v knjigi preroka Šemajája in vidca Idója glede rodovnikov? In nenehno so bile vojne med Rehabámom in Jerobeámom.
16 And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.
Rehabám je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopan je bil v Davidovem mestu. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Abíja.
