< 2 Kings 23 >

1 Then the king sent and got together all the responsible men of Judah and of Jerusalem.
Tedy poslav král, aby se shromáždili k němu všickni starší Judští a Jeruzalémští,
2 And the king went up to the house of the Lord, with all the men of Judah and all the people of Jerusalem, and the priests and the prophets and all the people, small and great; and they were present at his reading of the book of the law which had come to light in the house of the Lord.
Vstoupil král do domu Hospodinova a všickni muži Judští, i všickni obyvatelé Jeruzalémští s ním, i kněží a proroci, a všecken lid od malého až do velikého, i četl, aby všickni slyšeli všecka slova knihy smlouvy, kteráž byla nalezena v domě Hospodinově.
3 And the king took his place by the pillar, and made an agreement before the Lord, to go in the way of the Lord, and keep his orders and his decisions and his rules with all his heart and all his soul, and to keep the words of the agreement recorded in the book; and all the people gave their word to keep the agreement.
Potom stoje král na místě vyšším, učinil smlouvu před Hospodinem, že bude následovati Hospodina, a ostříhati přikázaní jeho, i svědectví jeho a ustanovení jeho, vším srdcem svým a vší duší svou, a plniti slova smlouvy té, kteráž jsou zapsána v knize té. K kteréžto smlouvě i všecken lid přistoupil.
4 Then the king gave orders to Hilkiah, the chief priest, and to the priests of the second order, and to the keepers of the door, to take out of the house of the Lord all the vessels made for Baal and for the Asherah and for all the stars of heaven; and he had them burned outside Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and took the dust of them to Beth-el.
A přikázal král Helkiášovi knězi nejvyššímu a kněžím nižším i strážným prahu, aby vymetali z chrámu Hospodinova všecky nádoby, kteréž udělány byly Bálovi a háji, i všemu vojsku nebeskému. Kterýž popáliv je vně za Jeruzalémem na poli Cedron, vnesl prach jejich do Bethel.
5 And he put an end to the false priests, who had been put in their positions by the kings of Judah to see to the burning of offerings in the high places in the towns of Judah and the outskirts of Jerusalem, and all those who made offerings to Baal and to the sun and the moon and the twelve signs and all the stars of heaven.
Složil také kněží, kteréž byli ustanovili králové Judští, aby kadívali na výsostech v městech Judských a vůkol Jeruzaléma; takž podobně i ty, kteříž kadívali Bálovi, slunci, měsíci a planétám, i všemu vojsku nebeskému.
6 And he took the Asherah from the house of the Lord, outside Jerusalem to the stream Kidron, burning it by the stream and crushing it to dust, and he put the dust on the place where the bodies of the common people were put to rest.
Vyvezl také háj z domu Hospodinova ven z Jeruzaléma ku potoku Cedron, a spálil jej u potoka Cedron a setřel na prach; ten pak prach vysypal na hroby synů toho lidu.
7 And he had the houses pulled down of those who were used for sex purposes in the house of the Lord, where women were making robes for the Asherah.
Domky také sodomářů hanebných zkazil, kteříž byli při domě Hospodinově, v nichž ženy tkaly kortýny k háji.
8 And he made all the priests from the towns of Judah come into Jerusalem, and he made unclean the high places where the priests had been burning offerings, from Geba to Beer-sheba; and he had the high places of the evil spirits pulled down which were by the doorway of Joshua, the ruler of the town, on the left side of the way into the town.
A kázal přivésti všecky kněží z měst Judských, a poškvrnil výsostí, na nichž kadívali kněží, od Gabaa až do Bersabé. Zkazil také výsostí u bran, kteréž byly u vrat brány Jozue, knížete města, a byly po levé straně vcházejícímu do brány městské.
9 Still the priests of the high places never came up to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem; but they took their food of unleavened bread among their brothers.
A však nepřistupovali ti kněží výsostí k oltáři Hospodinovu v Jeruzalémě, ale jídali chleby přesné mezi bratřími svými.
10 And Topheth, in the valley of the sons of Hinnom, he made unclean, so that no man might make his son or his daughter go through the fire to Molech.
Poškvrnil také i Tofet, jenž jest v údolí syna Hinnom, aby více žádný nevodil syna svého aneb dcery své skrze oheň Molochovi.
11 And he took away the horses which the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the way into the house of the Lord, by the room of Nathan-melech, the unsexed servant, which was in the outer part of the building, and the carriages of the sun he put on fire.
Zahladil také ty koně, kteréž byli postavili králové Judští slunci, kdež se vchází do domu Hospodinova, k domu Netanmelecha komorníka, kterýž byl v Parvarim; a vozy slunce spálil ohněm.
12 And the altars on the roof of the high room of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two outer squares of the house of the Lord, were pulled down and crushed to bits, and the dust of them was put into the stream Kidron.
Ano i oltáře, kteříž byli na vrchním paláci Achasovu, jichž byli nadělali králové Judští, a oltáře, jichž nadělal Manasses v obou síních domu Hospodinova, pobořil král, a pospíšiv s nimi odtud, dal vysypati prach jejich do potoka Cedron.
13 And the high places before Jerusalem, on the south side of the mountain of destruction, which Solomon, king of Israel, had made for Ashtoreth, the disgusting god of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh, the disgusting god of Moab, and for Milcom, the disgusting god of the children of Ammon, the king made unclean.
Výsosti také, kteréž byly před Jeruzalémem, a kteréž byly po pravé straně hory Olivetské, jichž byl nadělal Šalomoun král Izraelský Astarotovi, ohavnosti Sidonských, a Chámosovi, ohavnosti Moábských, a Melchomovi, ohavnosti synů Ammon, poškvrnil král,
14 The stone pillars were broken to bits and the wood pillars cut down, and the places where they had been were made full of the bones of the dead.
A potřískal obrazy, háje posekal, a místa jejich naplnil kostmi lidskými.
15 And the altar at Beth-el, and the high place put up by Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil, that altar and that high place were pulled down; and the high place was burned and crushed to dust and the Asherah was burned.
Nadto i oltář, jenž byl v Bethel, a výsost, kterouž udělal Jeroboám syn Nebatův, kterýž přivedl k hřešení Izraele, i ten oltář i výsost zkazil, a spáliv výsost, setřel ji na prach; spálil i háj.
16 Then Josiah, turning round, saw on the mountain the places of the dead, and he sent and had the bones taken out of their places and burned on the altar, so making it unclean, as the Lord had said by the man of God when Jeroboam was in his place by the altar on that feast-day. And he, turning his eyes to the resting-place of the man of God who had given word of these things, said:
A obrátiv se Joziáš, uzřel hroby, kteříž tu na hoře byli, a poslav, pobral kosti z těch hrobů a spálil je na tom oltáři. A tak poškvrnil ho vedlé řeči Hospodinovy, kterouž mluvil muž Boží ten, kterýž to předpověděl.
17 What is that headstone I see over there? And the men of the town said to him, It is the resting-place of the man of God who came from Judah and gave word of all these things which you have done to the altar of Beth-el.
I řekl: Jaký jest onenno nápis, kterýž vidím? Odpověděli jemu muži města: Hrob muže Božího jest, kterýž přišed z Judstva, předpověděl tyto věci, kteréž jsi učinil při oltáři v Bethel.
18 So he said, Let him be; let not his bones be moved. So they let his bones be with the bones of the prophet who came from Samaria.
Tedy řekl: Nechtež ho, aniž kdo hýbej kostmi jeho. I vysvobodili kosti jeho s kostmi proroka toho, kterýž byl přišel z Samaří.
19 Then Josiah took away all the houses of the high places in the towns of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had put up, moving the Lord to wrath, and he did with them as he had done in Beth-el.
Též všecky domy výsostí, kteříž byli v městech Samařských, jichž byli nadělali králové Izraelští, aby popouzeli Hospodina, zkazil Joziáš, a učinil jim rovně tak, jakž byl učinil v Bethel.
20 And all the priests of the high places there he put to death on the altars, burning the bones of the dead on them; and then he went back to Jerusalem.
Zbil také všecky kněží výsostí, kteříž tu byli, na oltářích, a pálil kosti lidské na nich. Potom navrátil se do Jeruzaléma.
21 And the king gave orders to all the people, saying, Keep the Passover to the Lord your God, as it says in this book of the law.
Přikázal pak král všemu lidu, řka: Slavte velikunoc Hospodinu Bohu svému, jakož psáno jest v knize smlouvy této.
22 Truly, such a Passover had not been kept in all the days of the judges of Israel or of the kings of Israel or the kings of Judah;
Nebo nebyla slavena taková velikanoc od času soudců, kteříž soudili Izraele, a po všecky dny králů Izraelských a králů Judských.
23 In the eighteenth year of the rule of King Josiah this Passover was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem.
Osmnáctého léta krále Joziáše slavena jest ta velikanoc Hospodinu v Jeruzalémě.
24 And all those who had control of spirits, and the wonder-workers, and the images, and the false gods, and all the disgusting things which were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, Josiah put away, so that he might give effect to the words of the agreement recorded in the book which Hilkiah the priest made discovery of in the house of the Lord.
Ano i věšťce a hadače, obrazy i ukydané bohy, a všecky ty ohavnosti, což jich bylo viděti v zemi Judské a v Jeruzalémě, vyplénil Joziáš, aby naplnil slova zákona zapsaná v knize, kterouž nalezl Helkiáš kněz v domě Hospodinově.
25 Never before had there been a king like him, turning to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his power, as the law of Moses says; and after him there was no king like him.
A nebylo jemu podobného krále před ním, kterýž by obrátil se k Hospodinu celým srdcem svým, a celou duší svou, i všemi mocmi svými vedlé všeho zákona Mojžíšova, ani po něm nepovstal podobný jemu.
26 But still the heat of the Lord's wrath was not turned back from Judah, because of all Manasseh had done in moving him to wrath.
A však neodvrátil se Hospodin od prchlivosti hněvu svého velikého, kterouž vzbuzen byl hněv jeho proti Judovi, pro všecka popouzení, kterýmiž popouzel ho Manasses.
27 And the Lord said, I will send Judah away from before my face, as I have sent Israel; I will have nothing more to do with this town, which I had made mine, even Jerusalem, and the holy house of which I said, My name will be there.
Protož řekl Hospodin: Také i Judu zavrhu od tváři své, jako jsem zavrhl Izraele, a opovrhu to město, kteréž jsem vyvolil, Jeruzalém, i ten dům, o němž jsem byl řekl: Jméno mé tam bude.
28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
O jiných pak činech Joziášových, a cožkoli činil, zapsáno jest v knize o králích Judských.
29 In his days, Pharaoh-necoh, king of Egypt, sent his armies against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates; and King Josiah went out against him; and he put him to death at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
Za dnů jeho přitáhl Farao Nécho král Egyptský proti králi Assyrskému k řece Eufraten. I vytáhl král Joziáš proti němu, a on zabil jej v Mageddo, když ho uzřel.
30 And his servants took his body in a carriage from Megiddo to Jerusalem, and put him into the earth there. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah, and put the holy oil on him and made him king in place of his father.
Tedy služebníci jeho vloživše jej mrtvého na vůz, přivezli ho z Mageddo do Jeruzaléma, a pochovali jej v hrobě jeho. I vzal lid země Joachaza syna Joziášova, a pomazali ho, i ustanovili králem na místě otce jeho.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, ruling in Jerusalem for three months; his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Ve třimecítma letech byl Joachaz, když počal kralovati, a kraloval tři měsíce v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho bylo Chamutal, dcera Jeremiášova z Lebna.
32 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his fathers had done.
A činil to, což jest zlého před očima Hospodinovýma, všecko tak, jakž činili otcové jeho.
33 And Pharaoh-necoh put him in chains at Riblah in the land of Hamath, so that he might not be king in Jerusalem; and took from the land a tax of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
I svázal ho Farao Nécho v Ribla, v zemi Emat, když kraloval v Jeruzalémě, a uložil daň na tu zemi, sto centnéřů stříbra a centnéř zlata.
34 Then Pharaoh-necoh made Eliakim, the son of Josiah, king in place of Josiah his father, changing his name to Jehoiakim; but Jehoahaz he took away to Egypt, where he was till his death.
A ustanovil Farao Nécho za krále Eliakima syna Joziášova, na místo Joziáše otce jeho, a proměnil jméno jeho, aby sloul Joakim. Ale Joachaza vzal, kterýž, když se dostal do Egypta, umřel tam.
35 And Jehoiakim gave the silver and gold to Pharaoh, taxing the land by his orders to get the money; the people of the land had to give silver and gold, everyone as he was taxed, to make the payment to Pharaoh-necoh.
To pak zlato i stříbro dával Joakim Faraonovi; pročež šacoval obyvatele země, aby mohl dáti stříbro k rozkázaní Faraonovu. Od jednoho každého vedlé toho, jakž byl šacován, bral stříbro i zlato od lidu země, aby dal Faraonovi Néchovi.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king; he was ruling in Jerusalem for eleven years; his mother's name was Zebidah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
V pětmecítma letech byl Joakim, když počal kralovati, a jedenácte let kraloval v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho bylo Zebuda, dcera Pedaiova z Ruma.
37 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord as his fathers had done.
I činil to, což jest zlého před očima Hospodinovýma, podlé všeho, což činili otcové jeho.
