2 Chronicles 15
1 Now Azariah, the son of Oded, had the Spirit of God within him.
Tada duh Božji doðe na Azariju sina Odidova;
2 And he went out to meet Asa, and he said to him: “Listen to me, Asa and all of Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you, because you have been with him. If you seek him, you will find him. But if you abandon him, he will abandon you.
Te otide pred Asu i reèe mu: èujte me, Aso i sve pleme Judino i Venijaminovo; Gospod je s vama, jer ste vi s njim; i ako ga ustražite, naæi æete ga; ako li ga ostavite, i on æe vas ostaviti.
3 Then many days will pass in Israel, apart from the true God, and apart from a learned priest, and apart from the law.
Dugo je Izrailj bez pravoga Boga i bez sveštenika uèitelja, i bez zakona.
4 And when, in their anguish, they will have returned to the Lord, the God of Israel, and will have sought him, they shall find him.
A da su se u nevolji svojoj obratili ka Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu i tražili ga, našli bi ga.
5 In that time, there will be no peace for those who depart and those who enter. Instead, there will be terror on every side, among all the inhabitants of the lands.
Ali u ovo vrijeme ne može se na miru odlaziti ni dolaziti; jer je nemir velik meðu svijem stanovnicima zemaljskim;
6 For nation will fight against nation, and city against city. For the Lord will disturb them with every anguish.
I potiru narodi jedan drugi, i gradovi jedan drugi, jer ih Bog smete svakojakim nevoljama.
7 But as for you, be strengthened, and do not let your hands be weakened. For there will be a reward for your work.”
Zato vi budite hrabri i nemojte da vam klonu ruke, jer ima plata za vaš trud.
8 And when Asa had heard these particular words, and the prophecy of the prophet Azariah, the son of Oded, he was strengthened, and he took away the idols from the entire land of Judah, and from Benjamin, and from the cities that he had seized of mount Ephraim, and he dedicated the altar of the Lord, which was before the portico of the Lord.
A kad èu Asa te rijeèi i proroštvo proroka Odida, ohrabri se, i istrijebi gadne bogove iz sve zemlje Judine i Venijaminove i iz gradova koje bješe uzeo u gori Jefremovoj, i ponovi oltar Gospodnji koji bijaše pred trijemom Gospodnjim.
9 And he gathered together all of Judah and Benjamin, and with them the new arrivals from Ephraim and Manasseh and Simeon. For many had fled to him from Israel, seeing that the Lord his God was with him.
Potom sazva sve pleme Judino i Venijaminovo i došljake koji bijahu kod njih od Jefrema i Manasije i Simeuna, jer ih mnogo prebježe k njemu iz naroda Izrailjeva kad vidješe da je Gospod Bog njegov s njim.
10 And when they had arrived in Jerusalem, in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa,
I skupiše se u Jerusalim treæega mjeseca petnaeste godine carovanja Asina.
11 they immolated to the Lord on that day, from the best of the spoils and from the plunder that they had brought: seven hundred oxen and seven thousand rams.
I u onaj dan prinesoše Gospodu žrtve od plijena koji dognaše, sedam stotina volova i sedam tisuæa ovaca.
12 And he entered, according to custom, in order to confirm the covenant, so that they would seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with their whole heart and with their whole soul.
I uhvatiše vjeru da traže Gospoda Boga otaca svojih svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom;
13 “But if anyone,” he said, “will not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, let him die, from the least even to the greatest, from man even to woman.”
A ko god ne bi tražio Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, da se pogubi, bio mali ili veliki, èovjek ili žena.
14 And they swore to the Lord, with a great voice, in jubilation, and with the blare of trumpets, and with the sound of horns,
I zakleše se Gospodu glasom velikim i uz klikovanje i uz trube i rogove.
15 all who were in Judah swore with a curse. For with all their heart they swore, and with all their will they sought and found him. And the Lord granted rest on all sides to them.
I radovaše se sav narod Judin radi te zakletve, jer iz svega srca svojega zakleše se, i od sve volje svoje tražiše ga i naðoše ga; i Gospod im dade mir otsvuda.
16 Then too, Maacah, the mother of king Asa, he deposed from the august authority, because she had made an idol of Priapus within a sacred grove. And he entirely crushed it, breaking it into pieces, and he burned it at the torrent Kidron.
Jošte i Mahu mater svoju svrže Asa s vlasti, jer bješe naèinila u lugu idola; i Asa obali idola njezina i izlomi ga i sažeže na potoku Kedronu.
17 But some high places were left in Israel. Even so, the heart of Asa was perfect during all his days.
Ali visine ne biše oborene u Izrailju, ali srce Asino bješe pravo svega vijeka njegova.
18 And whatever his father or he himself had vowed, he brought into the house of the Lord: silver and gold, and vessels for various uses.
I unese u dom Božji što bješe posvetio otac njegov i što bješe sam posvetio, srebro i zlato i sudove.
19 Truly, there was no war, until the thirty-fifth year of the kingdom of Asa.
I ne bi rata do trideset pete godine carovanja Asina.
