2 Kings 24
1 In his days, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came up and Jehoiakim was his servant for three years; then he took up arms against him.
U njegovo je vrijeme došao Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, i Jojakim mu je bio podložan tri godine, zatim se ponovno pobunio protiv njega.
2 And the Lord sent against him bands of the Chaldaeans and of the Edomites and of the Moabites and of the children of Ammon; sending them against Judah for its destruction, as he had said by his servants the prophets.
Ovaj pak posla protiv njega kaldejske pljačkaške čete, aramejske, moapske i amonske, sve ih posla protiv Judeje da je opustoše, potvrđujući riječ koju je Jahve bio objavio po slugama svojim prorocima.
3 Only by the word of the Lord did this fate come on Judah, to take them away from before his face; because of the sins of Manasseh and all the evil he did;
To se dogodilo Judeji prema prijetnji Jahvinoj da će je istrijebiti ispred svoga lica zbog grijeha Manašeovih: zbog svega što je Manaše učinio
4 And because of the death of those who had done no wrong, for he made Jerusalem full of the blood of the upright; and the Lord had no forgiveness for it.
i zbog nedužne krvi koju je prolio, natopio Jeruzalem krvlju nedužnom. Jahve nije htio oprostiti.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Ostala povijest Jojakimova i sve što je učinio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa judejskih kraljeva?
6 So Jehoiakim went to rest with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
Jojakim je počinuo kraj svojih otaca, a njegov sin Jojakin zavlada mjesto njega.
7 And the king of Egypt did not come out of his land again, for the king of Babylon had taken all his country, from the stream of Egypt to the river Euphrates.
Egipatski kralj nije više izlazio iz zemlje, jer je babilonski kralj osvojio od Egipatskog potoka do rijeke Eufrata sve što je pripadalo egipatskom kralju.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months, and his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jojakinu je bilo osamnaest godina kad se zakraljio i kraljevao je tri mjeseca u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Nehušta, kći Elnatana, i bila je iz Jeruzalema.
9 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done.
On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što je činio i njegov otac.
10 At that time the armies of Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem and the town was shut in on every side.
U ono vrijeme krenu ljudstvo babilonskog kralja Nabukodonozora protiv Jeruzalema i grad je bio opkoljen.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came there, while his servants were shutting in the town;
Dođe i babilonski kralj Nabukodonozor da napadne grad, dok ga je njegovo ljudstvo opsjedalo.
12 Then Jehoiachin, king of Judah, went out to the king of Babylon, with his mother and his servants and his chiefs and his unsexed servants; and in the eighth year of his rule the king of Babylon took him.
Tada je judejski kralj Jojakin izišao pred babilonskoga kralja: on, njegova majka, njegove sluge, njegove vojskovođe i dvorani, a babilonski kralj zarobi ga - osme godine svoga kraljevanja.
13 And he took away all the stored wealth of the Lord's house, and the goods from the king's store-house, cutting up all the gold vessels which Solomon, king of Israel, had made in the house of the Lord, as the Lord had said.
On je odnio sve iz riznice Doma Jahvina i iz riznica kraljevskog dvora i razbio je sve zlatne predmete koje je Salomon, kralj Izraela, načinio za Svetište Jahvino. Tako se ispunila riječ Jahvina.
14 And he took away all the people of Jerusalem and all the chiefs and all the men of war, ten thousand prisoners; and all the expert workmen and the metal-workers; only the poorest sort of the people of the land were not taken away.
Odveo je u progonstvo sav Jeruzalem, sve vojskovođe i sve vrsne ratnike, oko deset tisuća prognanika, sa svim kovačima i bravarima. Jedino je preostao najsiromašniji narod zemlje.
15 He took Jehoiachin a prisoner to Babylon, with his mother and his wives and his unsexed servants and the great men of the land; he took them all as prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Odveo je Jojakina u Babilon; tako isto i kraljevu majku i sve žene kraljeve, njegove dvorane, plemenitaše zemlje, sve ih je odveo iz Jeruzalema u progonstvo u Babilon.
16 And all the men of war, seven thousand of them, and a thousand expert workmen and metal-workers, all of them strong and able to take up arms, the king of Babylon took away as prisoners into Babylon.
Sve sposobne ljude, njih sedam tisuća na broju; kovače i bravare, tisuću na broju; sve ljude sposobne za boj, sve ih je kralj babilonski odveo u Babilon, u sužanjstvo.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, his father's brother, king in place of Jehoiachin, changing his name to Zedekiah.
Babilonski je kralj postavio za kralja mjesto Jojakina njegova strica Mataniju, ali mu je promijenio ime u Sidkija.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he was king in Jerusalem for eleven years; his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Sidkiji je bila dvadeset i jedna godina kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je jedanaest godina u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu bijaše ime Hamitala, kći Jeremije, i bila je iz Libne.
19 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što je činio Jojakin.
20 And because of the wrath of the Lord, this came about in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had sent them all away from before him: and Zedekiah took up arms against the king of Babylon.
To je zadesilo Jeruzalem i Judu zbog gnjeva Jahvina; Jahve ih napokon i odbaci ispred lica svoga. Sidkija se pobuni protiv babilonskog kralja.
