< 2 Chronicles 30 >
1 Also, Hezekiah sent to all of Israel and Judah. And he wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, so that they would come to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem, and so that they would keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel.
Potom posla Jezekija k svemu Izrailju i Judi, i napisa knjige sinovima Jefremovijem i Manasijinim da doðu u dom Gospodnji u Jerusalim da proslave pashu Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu.
2 Therefore, having taken counsel, the king and the rulers, and the entire assembly of Jerusalem, resolved that they would keep the Passover, in the second month.
Jer car i knezovi njegovi i sav zbor svijeæaše u Jerusalimu da slave pashu drugoga mjeseca.
3 For they had not been able to keep it at its proper time. For the priests, who were unable to suffice, had not been sanctified. And the people had not yet been gathered together in Jerusalem.
Jer je ne mogaše slaviti u to vrijeme, jer ne bijaše dosta sveštenika posveæenijeh i narod se ne bješe skupio u Jerusalim.
4 And the word was pleasing to the king, and to the entire multitude.
I to bi po volji caru i svemu zboru.
5 And they resolved that they would send messengers to all of Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, so that they might come and keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem. For many had not kept it, just as it was prescribed by the law.
I odrediše da oglase po svemu Izrailju od Virsaveje do Dana da doðu u Jerusalim da proslave pashu Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu, jer je odavna ne bjehu slavili kako je napisano.
6 And carriers traveled with the letters, by order of the king and his rulers, to all of Israel and Judah, proclaiming, in accord with what the king had ordered: “O sons of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Israel. And he will return to the remnant who escaped from the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
I tako otidoše glasnici s knjigama od cara i od knezova po svemu Izrailju i Judi, i po zapovijesti carevoj govorahu: sinovi Izrailjevi, obratite se ka Gospodu Bogu Avramovu, Isakovu i Izrailjevu, pa æe se i on obratiti k ostatku koji ste ostali od ruku careva Asirskih.
7 Do not choose to be like your fathers and brothers, who withdrew from the Lord, the God of their fathers. And so he delivered them over to destruction, as you yourselves discern.
Ne budite kao oci vaši i kao braæa vaša što griješiše Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih, te ih dade da budu èudo, kako vidite.
8 Do not choose to harden your necks, as your fathers did. Surrender to the hands of the Lord. And go to his Sanctuary, which he has sanctified unto eternity. Serve the Lord, the God of your fathers, and the fury of his wrath will be turned away from you.
Ne budite dakle tvrdovrati kao oci vaši, dajte ruke Gospodu i hodite u svetinju njegovu koju je osvetio navijek, i služite Gospodu Bogu svojemu, pa æe se odvratiti od vas žestina gnjeva njegova.
9 For if you will return to the Lord, your brothers and sons will find mercy before their masters, who led them away as captives, and they will be returned to this land. For the Lord your God is compassionate and lenient, and he will not avert his face from you, if you will return to him.”
Jer ako se obratite ka Gospodu, braæa æe vaša i sinovi vaši steæi milost u onijeh koji ih zarobiše, te æe se vratiti u ovu zemlju; jer je Gospod Bog vaš milostiv i žalostiv, i neæe odvratiti lica od vas, ako se obratite k njemu.
10 And so, the carriers were traveling quickly from city to city, throughout the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, as far as Zebulun, though they were ridiculing and mocking them.
A kad ti glasnici iðahu od grada do grada po zemlji Jefremovoj i Manasijinoj dori do Zavulona, potsmijevahu im se i rugahu im se.
11 Even so, certain men from Asher, and from Manasseh, and from Zebulun, acquiescing to this counsel, went to Jerusalem.
Ali neki od Asira i od Manasije i od Zavulona pokorivši se doðoše u Jerusalim.
12 Truly, the hand of God was working in Judah, to give them one heart, so that they would accomplish the word of the Lord, according to the precept of the king and of the rulers.
I nad Judu doðe ruka Gospodnja, te im dade jedno srce da uèine što bješe zapovjedio car i knezovi po rijeèi Gospodnjoj.
13 And many people gathered together in Jerusalem, so that they could keep the solemnity of unleavened bread, in the second month.
I skupi se u Jerusalim mnoštvo naroda da praznuju praznik prijesnijeh hljebova drugog mjeseca, i bi sabor veoma velik.
14 And rising up, they destroyed the altars which were in Jerusalem, and all the things in which incense was burned to idols. Overturning these things, they cast them into the torrent Kidron.
Tada se podigoše, i oboriše oltare što bijahu u Jerusalimu, i sve oltare kadione oboriše i baciše u potok Kison.
15 Then they immolated the Passover on the fourteenth day of the second month. Also, the priests and Levites, at length having been sanctified, offered the holocausts in the house of the Lord.
Potom zaklaše pashu èetrnaestoga dana drugoga mjeseca; a sveštenici i Leviti postidjevši se osveštaše se, i unesoše žrtve paljenice u dom Gospodnji.
16 And they stood in their order, according to the disposition and law of Moses, the man of God. Yet truly, the priests took up the blood, which was to be poured out, from the hands of the Levites,
I stadoše svojim redom kako treba po zakonu Mojsija sluge Božijega; i sveštenici kropiše krvlju primajuæi iz ruke Levitima.
17 because a great number were not sanctified. And therefore, the Levites immolated the Passover for those who had not been sanctified to the Lord in time.
I jer ih mnogo bijaše u zboru koji se ne bjehu osveštali; zato Leviti klahu pashu za svakoga koji ne bješe èist da bi ih posvetili Gospodu.
18 And now a great portion of the people from Ephraim, and Manasseh, and Issachar, and Zebulun, who had not been sanctified, ate the Passover, which is not in accord with what was written. And Hezekiah prayed for them, saying: “The good Lord will be forgiving
Jer mnoštvo naroda, mnogi od Jefrema i od Manasije i od Isahara i od Zavulona ne oèistiše se, nego jedoše pashu ne kako je napisano. Ali se za njih pomoli Jezekija govoreæi: Gospod blagi neka oèisti svakoga,
19 to all who, with their whole heart, seek the Lord, the God of their fathers. And he will not impute it to them, though they have not been sanctified.”
Ko je upravio srce svoje da traži Boga Gospoda, Boga otaca svojih, ako i ne bi bio èist prema svetom oèišæenju.
20 And the Lord heeded him, and was reconciled to the people.
I usliši Gospod Jezekiju, i saèuva narod.
21 And the sons of Israel who were found at Jerusalem kept the solemnity of unleavened bread for seven days with great rejoicing, praising the Lord throughout each day, with the Levites and the priests, accompanied by the musical instruments corresponding to their office.
I tako sinovi Izrailjevi koji bjehu u Jerusalimu praznovaše praznik prijesnijeh hljebova sedam dana u velikom veselju, i hvaljahu Gospoda svaki dan Leviti i sveštenici uz oruða za slavu Gospodnju.
22 And Hezekiah spoke to the heart of all the Levites, who had a good understanding concerning the Lord. And they ate during the seven days of the solemnity, immolating victims of peace offerings, and praising the Lord, the God of their fathers.
I Jezekija govori ljubazno sa svijem Levitima koji vješti bijahu službi Gospodnjoj; i jedoše o prazniku sedam dana prinoseæi žrtve zahvalne i slaveæi Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.
23 And it pleased the entire multitude that they should celebrate, even for another seven days. And they did this with enormous gladness.
I sav zbor dogovori se da praznuje još sedam dana; i praznovaše još sedam dana u veselju.
24 For Hezekiah, the king of Judah, had offered to the multitude one thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep. Truly, the rulers had given the people one thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep. Then a great multitude of priests was sanctified.
Jer Jezekija car Judin dade zboru tisuæu junaca i sedam tisuæa ovaca; a knezovi dadoše zboru tisuæu junaca i deset tisuæa ovaca; i osvešta se mnogo sveštenika.
25 And the whole multitude of Judah, as much the priests and Levites as the entire crowd that had arrived from Israel, and also the converts from the land of Israel, and those with a habitation in Judah, was overflowing with cheerfulness.
I tako se proveseli sav zbor Judin i sveštenici i Leviti, i sav zbor što bješe došao od Izrailja, i došljaci što bjehu došli iz zemlje Izrailjeve i koji življahu u zemlji Judinoj.
26 And there was a great celebration in Jerusalem, to such an extent as had not been in that city since the days of Solomon, the son of David, the king of Israel.
I bi veselje veliko u Jerusalimu; jer od vremena Solomuna sina Davidova cara Izrailjeva ne bi tako u Jerusalimu.
27 Then the priests and Levites rose up and blessed the people. And their voice was heeded. And their prayer reached the holy habitation of heaven.
Potom ustaše sveštenici i Leviti i blagosloviše narod; i uslišen bi glas njihov, i molitva njihova doðe u stan svetinje Gospodnje na nebo.
