2 Kings 24
1 In his days Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up, and Joakim became his servant three years: then again he rebelled against him.
U njegovo je vrijeme došao Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, i Jojakim mu je bio podložan tri godine, zatim se ponovno pobunio protiv njega.
2 And the Lord sent against him the rovers of the Chaldees, and the rovers of Syria, and the rovers of Moab, and the rovers of the children of Ammon: and he sent them against Juda, to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by his servants the prophets.
Ovaj pak posla protiv njega kaldejske pljačkaške čete, aramejske, moapske i amonske, sve ih posla protiv Judeje da je opustoše, potvrđujući riječ koju je Jahve bio objavio po slugama svojim prorocima.
3 And this came by the word of the Lord against Juda, to remove them from before him for all the sins of Manasses which he did.
To se dogodilo Judeji prema prijetnji Jahvinoj da će je istrijebiti ispred svoga lica zbog grijeha Manašeovih: zbog svega što je Manaše učinio
4 And for the innocent blood that he shed, filling Jerusalem with innocent blood: and therefore the Lord would not be appeased.
i zbog nedužne krvi koju je prolio, natopio Jeruzalem krvlju nedužnom. Jahve nije htio oprostiti.
5 But the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers:
Ostala povijest Jojakimova i sve što je učinio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa judejskih kraljeva?
6 And Joachin his son reigned in his stead.
Jojakim je počinuo kraj svojih otaca, a njegov sin Jojakin zavlada mjesto njega.
7 And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his own country: for the king of Babylon had taken all that had belonged to the king of Egypt, from the river of Egypt, unto the river Euphrates.
Egipatski kralj nije više izlazio iz zemlje, jer je babilonski kralj osvojio od Egipatskog potoka do rijeke Eufrata sve što je pripadalo egipatskom kralju.
8 Joachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, a and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Nohesta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jojakinu je bilo osamnaest godina kad se zakraljio i kraljevao je tri mjeseca u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Nehušta, kći Elnatana, i bila je iz Jeruzalema.
9 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that his father had done.
On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što je činio i njegov otac.
10 At that time the servants of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was surrounded with their forts.
U ono vrijeme krenu ljudstvo babilonskog kralja Nabukodonozora protiv Jeruzalema i grad je bio opkoljen.
11 And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came to the city with his servants to assault it.
Dođe i babilonski kralj Nabukodonozor da napadne grad, dok ga je njegovo ljudstvo opsjedalo.
12 And Joachin king of Juda went out to the king of Babylon, he and his mother, and his servants, and his nobles, and his eunuchs: and the king of Babylon received him in the eighth year of his reign.
Tada je judejski kralj Jojakin izišao pred babilonskoga kralja: on, njegova majka, njegove sluge, njegove vojskovođe i dvorani, a babilonski kralj zarobi ga - osme godine svoga kraljevanja.
13 And he brought out from thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house: and he cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, according to the word of the Lord.
On je odnio sve iz riznice Doma Jahvina i iz riznica kraljevskog dvora i razbio je sve zlatne predmete koje je Salomon, kralj Izraela, načinio za Svetište Jahvino. Tako se ispunila riječ Jahvina.
14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the valiant men of the army, to the number of ten thousand into captivity: and every artificer and smith: and none were left, but the poor sort of the people of the land.
Odveo je u progonstvo sav Jeruzalem, sve vojskovođe i sve vrsne ratnike, oko deset tisuća prognanika, sa svim kovačima i bravarima. Jedino je preostao najsiromašniji narod zemlje.
15 And he carried away Joachin into Babylon, and the king’s mother, and the king’s wives, and his eunuchs: and the judges of the land he carried into captivity from Jerusalem into Babylon.
Odveo je Jojakina u Babilon; tako isto i kraljevu majku i sve žene kraljeve, njegove dvorane, plemenitaše zemlje, sve ih je odveo iz Jeruzalema u progonstvo u Babilon.
16 And all the strong men, seven thousand, and the artificers, and the smiths a thousand, all that were valiant men and fit for war: and the king of Babylon led them captives into Babylon.
Sve sposobne ljude, njih sedam tisuća na broju; kovače i bravare, tisuću na broju; sve ljude sposobne za boj, sve ih je kralj babilonski odveo u Babilon, u sužanjstvo.
17 And he appointed Matthanias his uncle in his stead: and called his name Sedecias.
Babilonski je kralj postavio za kralja mjesto Jojakina njegova strica Mataniju, ali mu je promijenio ime u Sidkija.
18 Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
Sidkiji je bila dvadeset i jedna godina kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je jedanaest godina u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu bijaše ime Hamitala, kći Jeremije, i bila je iz Libne.
19 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što je činio Jojakin.
20 For the Lord was angry against Jerusalem and against Juda, till he cast them out from his face: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.
To je zadesilo Jeruzalem i Judu zbog gnjeva Jahvina; Jahve ih napokon i odbaci ispred lica svoga. Sidkija se pobuni protiv babilonskog kralja.
