< Chronicles II 12 >

1 And it came to pass when the kingdom of Roboam was established, and when he had grown strong, [that] he forsook the commandments of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
А кад Ровоам утврди царство и кад осили, остави закон Господњи и сав Израиљ с њим.
2 And it came to pass in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Susakim king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had sinned against the Lord,
А пете године царовања Ровоамовог дође Сисак цар мисирски на Јерусалим, јер згрешише Господу,
3 with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horses: and there was no number of the multitude that came with him from Egypt; Libyans, Trogodytes, and Ethiopians.
С хиљаду и две стотине кола и са шездесет хиљада коњаника, и не беше броја народу који дође с њим из Мисира, Лувејима, Сухејима и Хусејима.
4 And they obtained possession of the strong cities, which were in Juda, and came to Jerusalem.
И узе тврде градове Јудине и дође до Јерусалима.
5 And Samaias the prophet came to Roboam, and to the princes of Juda that were gathered to Jerusalem for fear of Susakim, and said to them, Thus said the Lord, Ye have left me, and I will leave you in the hand of Susakim.
Тада дође Семаја пророк к Ровоаму и кнезовима Јудиним, који се беху скупили у Јерусалим од Сисака, и рече им: Овако вели Господ: Ви остависте мене, зато и ја остављам вас у руке Сисаку.
6 And the elders of Israel and the king were ashamed, and said, The Lord [is] righteous.
Тада се понизише кнезови Израиљеви и цар и рекоше: Праведан је Господ.
7 And when the Lord saw that they repented, then came the word of the Lord to Samaias, saying, They have repented; I will not destroy them, but I will set them in safety for a little while, and my wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem.
А кад их виде Господ где се понизише, дође реч Господња Семаји говорећи: Понизише се, нећу их потрти, него ћу им сада дати избављење, и неће се излити јарост моја на Јерусалим преко Сисака.
8 Nevertheless they shall be servants, and know my service, and the service of the kings of the earth.
Него ће му бити слуге да познаду шта је мени служити, шта ли служити царствима земаљским.
9 So Susakim king of Egypt went up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures that were in the house of the Lord, and the treasures that were in the king's house: he took all; and he took the golden shields which Solomon had made.
И тако дође Сисак, цар мисирски, у Јерусалим и узе благо дома Господњег и благо дома царевог, све то узе; узе и штитове златне, које беше начинио Соломун;
10 And king Roboam made brazen shields instead of them. And Susakim set over him captains of footmen, as keepers of the gate of the king.
И на њихово место начини цар Ровоам штитове од бронзе, и предаде их старешинама над стражарима који чувају врата дома царевог.
11 And it came to pass, when the king went into the house of the Lord, the guards and the footmen went in, and they that returned to meet the footmen.
И кад иђаше цар у дом Господњи долажаху стражари и ношаху их, а после их опет остављаху у ризницу стражарску.
12 And when he repented, the anger of the Lord turned from him, and did not destroy him utterly; for there were good things in Juda.
Што се дакле понизи, одврати се од њега гнев Господњи, и не затре га сасвим; јер још у Јуди беше добра.
13 So king Roboam strengthened [himself] in Jerusalem, and reigned: and Roboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, in the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of the children of Israel to call his name there: and his mother's name was Noomma the Ammanitess.
И утврди се цар Ровоам у Јерусалиму, и царова; јер беше Ровоаму четрдесет и једна година кад се зацари, и седамдесет година царова у Јерусалиму граду, који изабра Господ између свих племена Израиљевих да онде намести име своје. А матери његовој беше име Нама, Амонка.
14 And he did evil, for he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
Али он чињаше зло, јер не управи срца свог да тражи Господа.
15 And the acts of Roboam, the first and the last, behold, are they not written in the book of Samaia the prophet, and Addo the seer, with his achievements.
Али дела Ровоамова прва и последња нису ли записана у књизи пророка Семаје и видеоца Ида, где се казују кољена, а и ратови који беху једнако међу Ровоамом и Јеровоамом?
16 And Roboam made war with Jeroboam all [his] days. And Roboam died with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abia his son reigned in his stead.
И почину Ровоам код отаца својих, и би погребен у граду Давидовом; а на његово се место зацари Авија, син његов.
