2 Chronicles 12
1 And when the kingdom of Rehoboam had been strengthened and fortified, he abandoned the law of the Lord, and all of Israel with him.
A kad Rovoam utvrdi carstvo i kad osili, ostavi zakon Gospodnji i sav Izrailj s njim.
2 Then, in the fifth year of the reign of Rehoboam, Shishak, the king of Egypt, ascended against Jerusalem (for they had sinned against the Lord)
A pete godine carovanja Rovoamova doðe Sisak car Misirski na Jerusalim, jer zgriješiše Gospodu,
3 with one thousand two hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen. And the common people could not be numbered who had arrived with him from Egypt, namely, the Libyans, and the Troglodytes, and the Ethiopians.
S tisuæu i dvije stotine kola i sa šezdeset tisuæa konjika, i ne bješe broja narodu koji doðe s njim iz Misira, Luvejima, Suhejima i Husejima.
4 And he seized the most fortified cities in Judah, and he went even to Jerusalem.
I uze tvrde gradove Judine i doðe do Jerusalima.
5 Then Shemaiah, the prophet, entered to Rehoboam, and to the leaders of Judah who had gathered together in Jerusalem while fleeing from Shishak, and he said to them: “Thus says the Lord: You have abandoned me, and so I have abandoned you into the hand of Shishak.”
Tada doðe Semaja prorok k Rovoamu i knezovima Judinijem, koji se bijahu skupili u Jerusalim od Sisaka, i reèe im: ovako veli Gospod: vi ostaviste mene, zato i ja ostavljam vas u ruke Sisaku.
6 And the leaders of Israel, and the king, being in consternation, said, “The Lord is just.”
Tada se poniziše knezovi Izrailjevi i car i rekoše: pravedan je Gospod.
7 And when the Lord had seen that they were humbled, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying: “Because they have been humbled, I will not disperse them. And I will give to them a little help, and my fury will not rain down upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
A kad ih vidje Gospod gdje se poniziše, doðe rijeè Gospodnja Semaji govoreæi: poniziše se, neæu ih potrti, nego æu im sada dati izbavljenje, i neæe se izliti jarost moja na Jerusalim preko Sisaka.
8 Yet truly, they shall serve him, so that they may know the difference between my servitude, and the servitude of a kingdom of the lands.”
Nego æe mu biti sluge da poznadu šta je meni služiti, šta li služiti carstvima zemaljskim.
9 And so Shishak, the king of Egypt, withdrew from Jerusalem, taking up the treasures of the house of the Lord and of the house of the king. And he took away everything with him, even the gold shields that Solomon had made.
I tako doðe Sisak car Misirski u Jerusalim i uze blago doma Gospodnjega i blago doma careva, sve to uze; uze i štitove zlatne, koje bješe naèinio Solomun;
10 In place of these, the king made bronze ones, and he delivered them to the leaders of the shield bearers, who were guarding the vestibule of the palace.
I na njihovo mjesto naèini car Rovoam štitove od mjedi, i predade ih starješinama nad stražarima koji èuvahu vrata doma careva.
11 And when the king would enter into the house of the Lord, the shield bearers would arrive and take them, and they would carry them back to their armory.
I kad iðaše car u dom Gospodnji dolažahu stražari i nošahu ih, a poslije ih opet ostavljahu u riznicu stražarsku.
12 Yet truly, because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and so they were not utterly destroyed. And indeed, good works were also found in Judah.
Što se dakle ponizi, odvrati se od njega gnjev Gospodnji, i ne zatr ga sasvijem; jer još u Judi bješe dobra.
13 Therefore, king Rehoboam was strengthened in Jerusalem, and he reigned. He was forty-one years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, so that he might confirm his name there. Now the name of his mother was Naamah, an Ammonite.
I utvrdi se car Rovoam u Jerusalimu, i carova; jer bijaše Rovoamu èetrdeset i jedna godina kad se zacari, i sedamnaest godina carova u Jerusalimu gradu, koji izabra Gospod izmeðu svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh da ondje namjesti ime svoje. A materi njegovoj bješe ime Nama, Amonka.
14 But he did evil, and he did not prepare his heart so as to seek the Lord.
Ali on èinjaše zlo, jer ne upravi srca svojega da traži Gospoda.
15 Truly, the works of Rehoboam, the first and the last, have been written in the books of Shemaiah, the prophet, and of Iddo, the seer, and diligently set forth. And Rehoboam and Jeroboam fought against one another during all their days.
Ali djela Rovoamova prva i pošljednja nijesu li zapisana u knjizi proroka Semaje i vidioca Ida, gdje se kazuju koljena a i ratovi koji bijahu jednako meðu Rovoamom i Jerovoamom?
16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the City of David. And his son, Abijah, reigned in his place.
I poèinu Rovoam kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u gradu Davidovu; a na njegovo se mjesto zacari Avija sin njegov.
