2 Kings 12
1 In the seventh year of Jehu's rule, Jehoash became king; and he was ruling for forty years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
V sedmem letu Jehúja je Joáš začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval štirideset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Cibjá iz Beeršébe.
2 Jehoash did what was right in the eyes of the Lord all his days, because he was guided by the teaching of Jehoiada the priest.
Joáš je delal to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, vse svoje dni, ko ga je duhovnik Jojadá poučeval.
3 But the high places were not taken away; the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
Toda visoki kraji niso bili odstranjeni. Ljudstvo je še vedno žrtvovalo in zažigalo kadilo na visokih krajih.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the holy things, which comes into the house of the Lord, (the amount fixed for every man's payment, ) and all the money given by any man freely from the impulse of his heart,
Joáš je rekel duhovnikom: »Ves denar od posvečenih stvari, ki je prinesen v Gospodovo hišo, celó denar vsakega, ki gre na račun, denar, ki je določen vsakemu možu in ves denar, ki pride v srce katerega človeka, da ga prinese v Gospodovo hišo,
5 Let the priests take, every man from his friends and neighbours, to make good what is damaged in the house, wherever it is to be seen.
naj ga duhovniki vzamejo k sebi, vsak človek od svojega znanca in naj popravijo vrzeli hiše, kjerkoli bi se našla kakršnakoli vrzel.«
6 But in the twenty-third year of King Jehoash, the priests had not made good the damaged parts of the house.
Toda bilo je tako, da v triindvajsetem letu kralja Joáša, duhovniki niso popravili vrzeli hiše.
7 Then King Jehoash sent for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said to them, Why have you not made good what is damaged in the house? now take no more money from your neighbours, but give it for the building up of the house.
Potem je dal kralj Joáš poklicati duhovnika Jojadája in druge duhovnike ter jim rekel: »Zakaj ne popravite vrzeli hiše? Sedaj torej ne sprejemajte več denarja od svojega znanca, temveč ga izročite za vrzeli hiše.«
8 So the priests made an agreement to take no more money from the people, and not to make good what was damaged in the house.
Duhovniki so privolili, da od ljudstva ne sprejmejo nič več denarja niti za popravilo hišnih vrzeli.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and making a hole in the cover of it, put it by the altar, on the right side when one comes into the house of the Lord; and the priests who kept the door put in it regularly all the money which was taken into the house of the Lord.
Toda duhovnik Jojadá je vzel zaboj, v njegov pokrov izvrtal luknjo in ga postavil poleg oltarja, na desni strani, ko nekdo prihaja h Gospodovi hiši in duhovniki, ki varujejo vrata, so vanj polagali ves denar, ki je bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo.
10 And when they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest came and put it in bags, noting the amount of all the money there was in the house of the Lord.
Bilo je tako, ko so videli, da je bilo v zaboju veliko denarja, sta prišla gor kraljev pisar in véliki duhovnik ter ga spravila v torbe in preštela denar, ki je bil najden v Gospodovi hiši.
11 And the money which was measured out they gave regularly to those who were responsible for overseeing the work, and these gave it in payment to the woodworkers and the builders who were working on the house of the Lord,
Denar sta izročila, kakor jima je bilo rečeno, v roke tistih, ki so opravljali delo, ki so nadzorovali Gospodovo hišo in ga izročila tesarjem in graditeljem, ki so delali na Gospodovi hiši,
12 And to the wall-builders and the stone-cutters, and to get wood and cut stone for building up the broken parts of the house of the Lord, and for everything needed to put the house in good order.
zidarjem in kamnosekom, da kupijo lesa in klesanega kamna, da popravijo vrzeli Gospodove hiše in za vse, kar se je porabilo za hišo, da jo popravijo.
13 But the money was not used for making silver cups or scissors or basins or wind-instruments or any vessels of gold or silver for the house of the Lord;
Vendar za Gospodovo hišo niso bile izdelane skledice iz srebra, utrinjala, umivalniki, trobente in vsakršne posode iz zlata ali posode iz srebra, od denarja, ki je bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo,
14 But it was all given to the workmen who were building up the house.
temveč so ga dali delavcem in z njim popravljali Gospodovo hišo.
15 And they did not get any statement of accounts from the men to whom the money was given for the workmen, for they made use of it with good faith.
Poleg tega niso delali obračuna z možmi, v čigar roko so izročili denar, da bi bil podeljen delavcem, kajti postopali so zvesto.
16 The money of the offerings for error and the sin-offerings was not taken into the house of the Lord; it was the priests'.
Denar za prekršek in denar za greh ni bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo. Ta je pripadal duhovnikom.
17 Then Hazael, king of Aram, went up against Gath and took it; and his purpose was to go up to Jerusalem.
Potem je sirski kralj Hazaél odšel gor, se boril zoper Gat, ga zavzel in Hazaél je svoj obraz nameril, da gre gor do Jeruzalema.
18 Then Jehoash, king of Judah, took all the holy things which Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah his fathers, the kings of Judah, had given to the Lord, together with the things he himself had given, and all the gold in the Temple store and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael, king of Aram; and he went away from Jerusalem.
Judov kralj Joáš je vzel vse posvečene stvari, ki so jih Józafat, Jehorám in Ahazjá, njegovi očetje, Judovi kralji, posvetili in svoje lastne posvečene stvari in vse zlato, ki je bilo najdeno v zakladnicah Gospodove hiše in v kraljevi hiši in to poslal sirskemu kralju Hazaélu in ta je odšel proč od Jeruzalema.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
Ostala Joaševa dela in vse, kar je storil, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Judovih kraljev?
20 And his servants made a secret design and put Joash to death at the house of Millo on the way down to Silla.
Njegova služabnika pa sta vstala, skovala zaroto in Joáša usmrtila v Milójevi hiši, ki gre dol do Sila.
21 And Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, came to him and put him to death; and they put him into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; and Amaziah his son became king in his place.
Kajti njegova služabnika Šimátin sin Jozakarja in Šomêrjev sin Jozabád sta ga udarila in je umrl. Pokopali so ga z njegovimi očeti v Davidovem mestu in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Amacjá.
