< 2 Chronicles 11 >
1 And Rehoboam came to Jerusalem; and he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men apt for war, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
A kad doðe Rovoam u Jerusalim, sazva dom Judin i Venijaminov, sto i osamdeset tisuæa odabranijeh vojnika, da zavojšte na Izrailja da povrate carstvo Rovoamu.
2 But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Ali doðe rijeè Gospodnja Semaji èovjeku Božijemu govoreæi:
3 Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Kaži Rovoamu sinu Solomunovu caru Judinu i svijem sinovima Izrailjevijem od Jude i Venijamina, i reci:
4 Thus saith Jehovah: Go not up, nor fight with your brethren; return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. And they hearkened to the words of Jehovah, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
Ovako veli Gospod: ne idite i ne bijte se s braæom svojom, vratite se svak svojoj kuæi, jer sam ja naredio tako da bude. I oni poslušaše rijeè Gospodnju i vratiše se i ne idoše na Jerovoama.
5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
I Rovoam sjede u Jerusalimu, i sazida tvrde gradove u zemlji Judinoj;
6 And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Sazida Vitlejem i Itam i Tekuju,
7 and Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
I Vet-Sur i Sohot i Odolam,
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
I Gat i Marisu i Zif,
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
I Adoraim i Lahis i Aziku,
10 and Zorah, and Ajalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
I Saraju i Ejalon i Hevron, koji su u zemlji Judinoj i Venijaminovoj tvrdi gradovi.
11 And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and of oil and wine;
A kad utvrdi te gradove, namjesti u njima zapovjednike, i staje za žito i za ulje i za vino,
12 and in every several city, targets and spears, and made them exceedingly strong. And Judah and Benjamin were his.
I u svakom gradu štitova i kopalja, i utvrdi ih jako. Tako njegov bijaše Juda i Venijamin.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their districts;
I sveštenici i Leviti, koji bijahu po svemu Izrailju, sabraše se k njemu iz svijeh krajeva svojih.
14 for the Levites left their suburbs and their possessions, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from exercising the priesthood to Jehovah;
Jer ostaviše Leviti podgraða svoja i dostojanja svoja, i otidoše u Judejsku i u Jerusalim, jer ih otjera Jerovoam i sinovi njegovi da ne vrše službe sveštenièke Gospodu.
15 and he ordained for himself priests for the high places, and for the he-goats and for the calves that he had made.
I postavi sebi sveštenike za visine i za ðavole i za teoce, koje naèini.
16 — And after them, those out of all the tribes of Israel that set their heart to seek Jehovah the God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to Jehovah the God of their fathers.
A za njima iz svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh koji upraviše srce svoje da traže Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, doðoše u Jerusalim da prinesu žrtvu Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih.
17 And they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong three years; for during three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
I tako utvrdiše carstvo Judino, i ukrijepiše Rovoama sina Solomunova za tri godine, jer za te tri godine hoðahu putem Davidovijem i Solomunovijem.
18 And Rehoboam took Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David as wife, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse.
A Rovoam se oženi Maeletom kæerju Jerimota sina Davidova i Avihailom kæerju Esijava sina Jesejeva,
19 And she bore him children: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
Koja mu rodi sinove: Jeusa i Samariju i Zama.
20 And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
A poslije nje oženi se Mahom kæerju Avesalomovom, koja mu rodi Aviju i Ataja i Zivu i Selomita.
21 And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines; for he had taken eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and he begot twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.
A ljubljaše Rovoam Mahu kæer Avesalomovu veæma od svijeh žena svojih i inoèa svojih; jer imaše osamnaest žena i šezdeset inoèa, i rodi dvadeset i osam sinova i šezdeset kæeri.
22 And Rehoboam established Abijah the son of Maachah at the head, to be ruler among his brethren; for [he thought] to make him king.
I Rovoam postavi Aviju sina Mašina poglavarom i knezom nad braæom njegovom, jer ga šæaše postaviti carem.
23 And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all the fortified cities; and he gave them food in abundance. And he desired [for them] a multitude of wives.
I mudro radeæi rasturi sve sinove svoje po svijem krajevima Judinijem i Venijaminovijem, po svijem tvrdijem gradovima, i dade im hrane izobila, i dovede im mnogo žena.
