Kings III 12
1 And king Roboam goes to Sikima; for all Israel were coming to Sikima to make him king.
Tada otide Rovoam u Sihem: jer se ondje skupi sav Izrailj da ga zacare.
A Jerovoam sin Navatov, koji još bijaše u Misiru pobjegavši onamo od cara Solomuna, kad èu, on još osta u Misiru.
3 And the people spoke to king Roboam, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy;
Ali poslaše i dozvaše ga. Tako Jerovoam i sav zbor Izrailjev doðoše i rekoše Rovoamu govoreæi:
4 but do you now lighten somewhat of the hard service of your father, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve you.
Tvoj je otac metnuo na nas težak jaram; nego ti sada olakšaj ljutu službu oca svojega i teški jaram koji je metnuo na nas, pak æemo ti služiti.
5 And he said to them, Depart for three days, and return to me. And they departed.
A on im reèe: idite, pa do tri dana doðite opet k meni. I narod otide.
6 And the king referred [the matter] to the elders, who stood before Solomon his father while he was yet living, saying, How do you advise that I should answer this people?
Tada car Rovoam uèini vijeæe sa starcima koji stajaše pred Solomunom ocem njegovijem dok bijaše živ, i reèe: kako svjetujete da odgovorim narodu?
7 And they spoke to him, saying, If you will this day be a servant to this people, and will serve them, and will speak to them good words, then will they be your servants continually.
A oni mu odgovoriše govoreæi: ako danas ugodiš narodu i poslušaš ih i odgovoriš im lijepijem rijeèima, oni æe ti biti sluge svagda.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they gave him, and consulted with the young men who were brought up with him, who stood in his presence.
Ali on ostavi svjet što ga svjetovaše starci, i uèini vijeæe s mladiæima, koji odrastoše s njim i koji stajahu pred njim.
9 And he said to them, What counsel do you give? And what shall I answer to this people who speak to me, saying, Lighten somewhat of the yoke which your father has put upon us?
I reèe im: šta vi svjetujete da odgovorimo narodu, koji mi rekoše govoreæi: olakšaj jaram koji je metnuo na nas tvoj otac?
10 And the young men who had been brought up with him, who stood before his face, spoke to him, saying, Thus shall you say to this people who have spoken to you, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy, and do you now lighten it from off us: thus shall say to them, My little [finger shall be] thicker than my father's loins.
Tada mu odgovoriše mladiæi koji odrastoše s njim, i rekoše: ovako kaži narodu što ti reèe: tvoj je otac metnuo na nas težak jaram, nego nam ti olakšaj; ovako im reci: moj je mali prst deblji od bedara oca mojega.
11 And whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I also will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Otac je moj metnuo na vas težak jaram, a ja æu još dometnuti na vaš jaram; otac vas je moj šibao bièevima, a ja æu vas šibati bodljivijem bièevima.
12 And all Israel came to king Roboam on the third day, as the king spoke to them, saying, Return to me on the third day.
A treæi dan doðe Jerovoam i sav narod k Rovoamu, kako im bješe kazao car rekavši: doðite opet k meni do tri dana.
13 And the king answered the people harshly; and Roboam forsook the counsel of the old men which they counselled him.
I car odgovori oštro narodu ostavivši svjet što ga svjetovaše starci;
14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
I reèe im kako ga svjetovaše mladiæi govoreæi: moj je otac metnuo na vas težak jaram, a ja æu još dometnuti na jaram vaš; otac vas je moj šibao bièevima, a ja æu vas šibati bodljivijem bièevima.
15 And the king listened not to the people, because the change was from the Lord, that he might establish his word which he spoke by Achia the Selonite concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
I car ogluši se naroda, jer Gospod bješe tako uredio da bi potvrdio rijeè svoju što je rekao preko Ahije Silomljanina Jerovoamu sinu Navatovu.
16 And all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them: and the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither have we any inheritance in the son of Jessae. Depart, O Israel, to your tents: now feed your own house, David. So Israel departed to his tents.
A kad vidje sav Izrailj gdje ih se car ogluši, odgovori narod caru govoreæi: kakav dio mi imamo s Davidom? nemamo našljedstva sa sinom Jesejevijem. U šatore svoje, Izrailju! a ti Davide, sad gledaj svoju kuæu. Tako otide Izrailj u šatore svoje.
Samo nad sinovima Izrailjevijem, koji življahu po gradovima Judinijem, zacari se Rovoam.
18 And the king sent Adoniram who was over the tribute; and they stoned him with stones, and he died: and king Roboam made haste to rise to flee to Jerusalem.
I car Rovoam posla Adorama koji bijaše nad dankom; ali ga sav Izrailj zasu kamenjem, te pogibe; a car Rovoam brže sjede na kola, te pobježe u Jerusalim.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.
Tako otpade Izrailj od doma Davidova do današnjega dana.
20 And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned out of Egypt, that they sent and called him to the assembly, and they made him king over Israel: and none followed the house of David except the tribe of Juda and Benjamin only.
I kad èu sav Izrailj da se vratio Jerovoam, poslavši dozvaše ga na skupštinu, i postaviše ga carem nad svijem Izrailjem. Ne prista za domom Davidovijem nijedno pleme osim samoga plemena Judina.
21 And Roboam went into Jerusalem, and he assembled the congregation of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and twenty thousand young men, warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to recover the kingdom to Roboam the son of Solomon.
A Rovoam došav u Jerusalim sazva sav dom Judin i pleme Venijaminovo, sto i osamdeset tisuæa odabranijeh vojnika, da zavojšte na dom Izrailjev da povrate carstvo Rovoamu sinu Solomunovu.
22 And the word of the Lord came to Samaia the man of God, saying,
Ali doðe rijeè Božja Semeju, èovjeku Božijemu, govoreæi:
23 Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon, king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
Kaži Rovoamu sinu Solomunovu caru Judinu i svemu domu Judinu i Venijaminovu i ostalome narodu, i reci:
24 Thus says the Lord, You shall not go up, neither shall you fight with your brethren the sons of Israel: return each man to his own home; for this thing is from me; and they listened to the word of the Lord, and they ceased from going up, according to the word of the Lord.
Ovako veli Gospod: ne idite, i ne bijte se s braæom svojom, sinovima Izrailjevijem; vratite se svak svojoj kuæi, jer sam ja naredio tako da bude. I oni poslušaše rijeè Gospodnju i vrativši se otidoše kako Gospod reèe.
25 And Jeroboam built Sikima in mount Ephraim and lived in it, and went forth thence and built Phanuel.
Potom sazida Jerovoam Sihem u gori Jefremovoj i naseli se u njemu; a poslije otide odande i sazida Fanuil.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Behold, now the kingdom will return to the house of David.
I reèe Jerovoam u srcu svom: može se carstvo povratiti domu Davidovu.
27 If this people shall go up to offer sacrifice in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then the heart of the people will return to the Lord, and to their master, to Roboam king of Juda, and they will kill me.
Ako ovaj narod stane iæi u Jerusalim da prinosi žrtve u domu Gospodnjem, srce æe se narodu obratiti ka gospodaru njegovu Rovoamu caru Judinu, te æe me ubiti, i povratiæe se k Rovoamu caru Judinu.
28 And the king took counsel, and went, and made two golden heifers, and said to the people, Let it suffice you to have gone [hitherto] to Jerusalem: behold your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
Zato car smisli, te naèini dva teleta od zlata, pa reèe narodu: ne treba više da idete u Jerusalim; evo bogova tvojih, Izrailju, koji su te izveli iz zemlje Misirske.
29 And he put one in Bethel, and he put the other in Dan.
I namjesti jedno u Vetilju a drugo namjesti u Danu.
30 And this thing became a sin; and the people went before one as far as Dan, and left the house of the Lord.
I to bi na grijeh, jer narod iðaše k jednome do Dana.
31 And he made houses on the high places, and made priests of any part of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
I naèini kuæu na visini, i postavi sveštenike od prostoga naroda koji ne bijahu od sinova Levijevih.
32 And Jeroboam appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, according to the feast in the land of Juda;
I uèini Jerovoam praznik osmoga mjeseca petnaestoga dana, kao što je praznik u zemlji Judinoj, i prinese žrtve na oltaru; tako uèini i u Vetilju prinoseæi žrtve teocima koje naèini; i postavi u Vetilju sveštenike visinama koje naèini.
33 and went up to the altar which he made in Baethel to sacrifice to the heifers which he made, and he placed in Baethel the priests of the high places which he had made. And he went up to the altar which he had made, on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, at the feast which he devised out of his own heart; and he made a feast to the children of Israel, and went up to the altar to sacrifice.
I petnaestoga dana osmoga mjeseca, koji bješe smislio u srcu svom, prinošaše žrtve na oltaru koji naèini u Vetilju, i praznovaše praznik sa sinovima Izrailjevijem, i pristupi k oltaru da kadi.
