< 2 Chronicles 23 >
1 In the seventh year, Jehoiada made himself strong, and made an agreement with the captains of hundreds, Azariah, the son of Jeroham, Ishmael, the son of Jehohanan, Azariah, the son of Obed, Maaseiah, the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat, the son of Zichri.
V sedmem letu se je Jojadá okrepil in vzel poveljnike nad stotimi: Jerohámovega sina Azarjája, Johanánovega sina Jišmaéla, Obédovega sina Azarjája, Adajájevega sina Maasejája in Zihríjevega sina Elišafáta v zavezo z njim.
2 And they went through Judah, getting together the Levites and the heads of families in Israel from all the towns of Judah, and they came to Jerusalem.
Ti so šli naokoli po Judu in zbrali Lévijevce iz vseh Judovih mest in vodje Izraelovih očetov ter prišli v Jeruzalem.
3 And all the people made an agreement with the king in the house of God. And he said to them, Truly, the king's son will be king, as the Lord has said about the sons of David.
Vsa skupnost je sklenila zavezo s kraljem v Božji hiši. Rekel jim je: »Glejte, kraljev sin bo kraljeval, kakor je Gospod rekel o Davidovih sinovih.
4 This is what you are to do: let a third of you, of the priests and Levites, who come in on the Sabbath, keep the doors;
To je stvar, ki jo boste storili: ›Tretjina izmed vas, ki vstopi na šabat, od duhovnikov in od Lévijevcev, boste vratarji vrat,
5 And a third are to be stationed at the king's house; and a third at the doorway of the horses: while all the people are waiting in the open spaces round the house of the Lord.
tretjina bo pri kraljevi hiši in tretjina pri temeljnih velikih vratih, vse ljudstvo pa bo na dvorih Gospodove hiše.
6 But let no one come into the house of the Lord but only the priests and those of the Levites who have work to do there; they may go in for they are holy; but the rest of the people are to keep the orders of the Lord.
Toda nihče naj ne pride v Gospodovo hišo, razen duhovnikov in tistih, ki služijo od Lévijevcev; oni bodo vstopili, kajti oni so sveti, toda vse ljudstvo bo Gospodova straža.
7 And the Levites are to make a circle round the king, every man being armed; and any man who comes into the house is to be put to death; you are to keep with the king when he comes in and when he goes out.
Lévijevci bodo naokoli obdali kralja, vsak mož s svojim orožjem v svoji roki in kdorkoli drug pride v hišo, bo usmrčen, toda vi bodite s kraljem, ko vstopa in ko gre ven.
8 So the Levites and all Judah did as Jehoiada the priest had given them orders: every one took with him his men, those who were to come in and those who were to go out on the Sabbath; for Jehoiada had not sent away the divisions.
Tako so Lévijevci in ves Juda storili glede na vse stvari, ki jih je duhovnik Jojadá zapovedal ter vzeli vsak mož svoje može, ki so vstopali na šabat, s tistimi, ki so na šabat odhajali ven, kajti duhovnik Jojadá ni odpustil skupin.
9 Then Jehoiada the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the spears and body-covers which had been King David's and which were kept in the house of God.
Poleg tega je duhovnik Jojadá poveljnikom izročil stotine sulic, oklepe in ščite, ki so bili [od] kralja Davida, ki so bili v Božji hiši.
10 And he put all the people in position, every man with his instruments of war in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left, by the altar and the house and all round the king.
Postavil je vse ljudstvo, vsakega moža s svojim orožjem v svoji roki, od desne strani templja, do leve strani templja, vzdolž oltarja in templja, naokoli kralja.
11 Then they made the king's son come out, and they put the crown on his head and gave him the arm-bands and made him king: and Jehoiada and his sons put the holy oil on him and said, Long life to the king.
Potem so privedli ven kraljevega sina in nanj položili krono in mu izročili pričevanje ter ga postavili [za] kralja. Jojadá in njegovi sinovi so ga mazilili ter rekli: »Živel kralj.«
12 Now Athaliah, hearing the noise of the people running and praising the king, came to the people in the house of the Lord:
Torej ko je Ataljá zaslišala hrup ljudstva teči in slaviti kralja, je prišla k ljudstvu v Gospodovo hišo.
13 And looking, she saw the king in his place by the pillar at the doorway, and the captains and the horns by his side; and all the people of the land were giving signs of joy and sounding the horns; and the makers of melody were playing on instruments of music, taking the chief part in the song of praise. Then Athaliah, violently parting her robes, said, Broken faith, broken faith!
Pogledala je in glej, kralj je stal pri svojem stebru ob vhodu in princi ter trobente poleg kralja. Vse ljudstvo dežele se je veselilo in trobilo s trobentami, tudi pevci z glasbenimi instrumenti in tisti, ki so učili peti hvalo. Potem je Ataljá pretrgala svoja oblačila in rekla: »Izdaja, izdaja.«
14 Then Jehoiada the priest gave orders to the captains of hundreds who had authority over the army, saying, Take her outside the lines, and let anyone who goes after her be put to death with the sword. For the priest said, Let her not be put to death in the house of the Lord.
Potem je duhovnik Jojadá privedel ven poveljnike nad stotimi, ki so bili postavljeni nad vojsko in jim rekel: »Odpeljite jo iz dosega in kdorkoli ji sledi, naj bo umorjen z mečem. Kajti duhovnik je rekel: ›Ne umorite je v Gospodovi hiši.‹«
15 So they put their hands on her, and she went to the king's house by the doorway of the king's horses; and there she was put to death.
Tako so nanjo položili roke in ko je prišla do vhoda velikih konjskih vrat, ob kraljevi hiši, so jo tam usmrtili.
16 And Jehoiada made an agreement between the Lord and all the people and the king, that they would be the Lord's people.
Jojadá je sklenil zavezo med seboj, med vsem ljudstvom in med kraljem, da bi bili Gospodovo ljudstvo.
17 Then all the people went to the house of Baal and had it pulled down, and its altars and images broken up; and Mattan, the priest of Baal, they put to death before the altars.
Potem je vse ljudstvo odšlo k Báalovi hiši, jo porušilo, razbilo njene oltarje in njene podobe na koščke in pred oltarji usmrtilo Báalovega duhovnika Matána.
18 And Jehoiada put the work and the care of the house of the Lord into the hands of the priests and the Levites, who had been grouped in divisions by David to make burned offerings to the Lord, as it is recorded in the law of Moses, with joy and song as David had said.
Jojadá je določil tudi službe Gospodove hiše po roki Lévijevih duhovnikov, ki jih je David porazdelil v Gospodovi hiši, da darujejo Gospodove žgalne daritve, kakor je to zapisano v Mojzesovi postavi, z razveseljevanjem in prepevanjem, kakor je bilo to odrejeno po Davidu.
19 And he put door-keepers at the doors of the Lord's house, to see that no one who was unclean in any way might come in.
Postavil je vratarje pri velikih vratih Gospodove hiše, da nihče, ki je bil nečist v katerikoli stvari, ne bi vstopil.
20 Then he took the captains of hundreds and the chiefs and the rulers of the people and all the people of the land, and they came down with the king from the house of the Lord through the higher doorway into the king's house, and put the king on the seat of the kingdom.
Vzel je poveljnike izmed stotih, plemiče in voditelje izmed ljudstva in vse ljudstvo dežele ter kralja privedel dol iz Gospodove hiše in prišli so skozi velika vrata v kraljevo hišo ter kralja postavili na prestol kraljestva.
21 So all the people of the land were glad and the town was quiet, for they had put Athaliah to death with the sword.
Vse ljudstvo dežele se je veselilo in mesto je bil mirno, potem ko so Ataljo umorili z mečem.
