< 2 Kings 18 >
1 Now in the third yeere of Hoshea, sonne of Elah King of Israel, Hezekiah the sonne of Ahaz king of Iudah began to reigne.
Pripetilo se je torej v tretjem letu Hošéa, Elájevega sina, Izraelovega kralja, da je začel kraljevati Ezekíja, Aházov sin, Judov kralj.
2 He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twenty yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zachariah,
Petindvajset let je bil star, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval devetindvajset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Abí, Zaharijeva hči.
3 And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Dauid his father had done.
Delal je to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, glede na vse, kar je storil njegov oče David.
4 He tooke away the hie places, and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for vnto those dayes the children of Israel did burne incense to it, and hee called it Nehushtan.
Odstranil je visoke kraje, zlomil podobe, posekal ašere in na koščke zdrobil bronasto kačo, ki jo je naredil Mojzes, kajti v tistih dneh so ji Izraelovi otroci zažigali kadilo in jo imenoval Nehuštán.
5 He trusted in the Lord God of Israel: so that after him was none like him among all the Kings of Iudah, neither were there any such before him.
Zaupal je v Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga, tako da za njim ni bilo nikogar podobnega njemu med vsemi Judovimi kralji niti nikogar, ki bi bil pred njim.
6 For he claue to the Lord, and departed not from him, but kept his commandements, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Kajti pridružil se je h Gospodu in se ni oddvojil od sledenju njemu, temveč se je držal njegovih zapovedi, ki jih je Gospod zapovedal Mojzesu.
7 So the Lord was with him, and he prospered in all thinges, which he tooke in hande: also he rebelled against the King of Asshur, and serued him not.
Gospod je bil z njim in uspeval je kamorkoli je odšel in uprl se je zoper asirskega kralja in mu ni služil.
8 He smote the Philistims vnto Azzah, and the coastes thereof, from the watch towre vnto the defensed citie.
Udaril je Filistejce, celó do Gaze in njenih meja, od stražarskega stolpa, do utrjenega mesta.
9 And in the fourth yere of King Hezekiah, (which was the seuenth yeere of Hoshea sonne of Elah King of Israel) Shalmaneser King of Asshur came vp against Samaria, and besieged it.
Pripetilo se je v četrtem letu kralja Ezekíja, kar je bilo sedmo leto Hošéa, Elájevega sina, Izraelovega kralja, da je asirski kralj Salmanasar prišel gor zoper Samarijo in jo oblegal.
10 And after three yeeres they tooke it, euen in the sixt yeere of Hezekiah: that is, the ninth yeere of Hoshea King of Israel was Samaria taken.
Ob koncu treh let so jo zavzeli, torej v šestem letu Ezekíja, to je v devetem letu Izraelovega kralja Hošéa je bila Samarija zavzeta.
11 Then the King of Asshur did carry away Israel vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes,
Asirski kralj je Izraela odvedel v Asirijo in jih naselil v Haláhu in Habórju, pri reki Gozán in v mestih Medijcev,
12 Because they woulde not obey the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his couenant: that is, all that Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded, and would neyther obey nor doe them.
ker niso ubogali glasu Gospoda, svojega Boga, temveč so prestopili njegovo zavezo in vse, kar je zapovedal Gospodov služabnik Mojzes, pa jih niso hoteli slišati niti jih izpolnjevati.
13 Moreouer, in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against all the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.
Torej v štirinajstem letu kralja Ezekíja je asirski kralj Senaherib prišel gor zoper vsa utrjena Judova mesta in jih zavzel.
14 Then Hezekiah King of Iudah sent vnto the King of Asshur to Lachish, saying, I haue offended: depart from me, and what thou layest vpon me, I wil beare it. And the King of Asshur appoynted vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah three hudreth talents of siluer, and thirty talets of golde.
Judov kralj Ezekíja je poslal k asirskemu kralju v Lahíš, rekoč: »Grešil sem, obrni se od mene. To, kar polagaš name, bom nosil.« Asirski kralj je Judovemu kralju Ezekíju določil tristo talentov srebra in trideset talentov zlata.
15 Therefore Hezekiah gaue all the siluer that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house.
Ezekíja mu je dal vse srebro, ki je bilo najdeno v Gospodovi hiši in v zakladnicah kraljeve hiše.
16 At the same season did Hezekiah pul off the plates of the doores of the Temple of the Lord, and the pillars (which the sayd Hezekiah King of Iudah had couered ouer) and gaue them to the King of Asshur.
Ob tistem času je Ezekíja odluščil zlato iz vrat Gospodovega templja in iz stebrov, ki jih je prevlekel Judov kralj Ezekíja in to dal kralju Asirije.
17 And the King of Asshur sent Tartan, and Rab-saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great hoste against Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, and when they were come vp, they stood by the conduite of the vpper poole, which is by the path of the fullers fielde,
Kralj Asirije je iz Lahíša poslal Tartana, Rabsarísa in Rabšakéja h kralju Ezekíju z veliko vojsko zoper Jeruzalem. Odšli so gor in prišli k Jeruzalemu. In ko so prišli gor, so prišli in obstali pri cevi gornjega ribnika, ki je na glavni cesti pralčevega polja.
18 And called to the King. Then came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.
Ko so zaklicali h kralju, je ven k njim prišel Hilkijájev sin Eljakím, ki je bil nad družino, pisar Šebná in Asáfov sin Joáh, letopisec.
19 And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus saith the great King, euen the great King of Asshur, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
Rabšaké jim je rekel: »Govorite torej Ezekíju: ›Tako govori veliki kralj, kralj Asirije: ›Kakšno zaupanje je to, v katero zaupaš?
20 Thou thinkest, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
Ti praviš (toda to so samo prazne besede): › Imam nasvet in moč za vojno. Komu odslej zaupaš, da si se uprl zoper mene?
21 Lo, thou trustest now in this broken staffe of reede, to wit, on Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt vnto all that trust on him.
Torej glej, ti zaupaš v palico iz poškodovanega trsta, v Egipt, na katerega, če se človek nasloni, se bo ta zadrl v njegovo roko in jo prebodel. Tako je faraon, egiptovski kralj, vsem tem, ki zaupajo vanj.
22 But if ye say vnto me, We trust in the Lord our God, is not that he whose hie places, and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath sayd to Iudah and Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Ierusalem?
Toda če mi rečete: ›Zaupamo v Gospoda, svojega Boga, ‹ mar ni to on, katerega visoke kraje in katerega oltarje je Ezekíja odstranil ter rekel Judu in Jeruzalemu: ›Pred tem oltarjem boste oboževali v Jeruzalemu.‹
23 Now therefore giue hostages to my lord the King of Asshur, and I will giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders vpon them.
Zdaj torej, prosim te, daj jamstva mojemu gospodu, asirskemu kralju, jaz pa ti bom izročil dva tisoč konjev, če boš na svoji strani zmožen nanje postaviti jezdece.
24 For how canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my masters seruants, and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and horsemen?
Kako potem hočeš odvrniti obraz enega poveljnika izmed najmanjših služabnikov mojega gospodarja in svoje zaupanje položiti v Egipt zaradi bojnih vozov in konjenikov?
25 Am I now come vp without the Lord to this place, to destroy it? the Lord sayd to me, Goe vp against this land, and destroy it.
Sem mar brez Gospoda prišel gor zoper ta kraj, da ga uničim? Gospod mi je rekel: ›Pojdi gor zoper to deželo in jo uniči.‹«
26 Then Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Ioah said vnto Rabshakeh, Speake I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, for we vnderstand it, and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall.
Potem so Hilkijájev sin Eljakím, Šebná in Joáh rekli Rabšakéju: »Govori, prosimo te, tvojim služabnikom v sirskem jeziku, kajti mi ga razumemo in ne govori z nami v judovskem jeziku v ušesa ljudstva, ki so na obzidju.«
27 But Rabshakeh saide vnto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speake these words, and not to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you?
Toda Rabšaké jim je rekel: »Ali me ni moj gospodar poslal k tvojemu gospodarju in k tebi, da govorim te besede? Ali me ni poslal k možem, ki sedijo na obzidju, da bodo lahko s teboj jedli svoj iztrebek in pili svoj seč?«
28 So Rabshakeh stoode and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the king of Asshur.
Potem je Rabšaké vstal, z močnim glasom zaklical v hebrejskem jeziku in spregovoril, rekoč: »Poslušajte besedo velikega kralja, kralja Asirije,
29 Thus sayth the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you out of mine hand.
tako govori kralj: ›Ne dopustite, da vas Ezekíja zavede, kajti ne bo sposoben, da vas osvobodi iz njegove roke,
30 Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs, and this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the king of Asshur.
niti naj vam Ezekíja ne da zaupati v Gospoda, rekoč: › Gospod nas bo zagotovo osvobodil in to mesto ne bo izročeno v roko asirskega kralja.‹
31 Hearken not vnto Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne figge tree, and drinke euery man of the water of his owne well,
Ne prisluhnite Ezekíju, kajti tako govori kralj Asirije: ›Sklenite dogovor z menoj z darilom in pridite ven k meni in potem jejte vsak mož od svoje lastne trte in vsak mož od svojega figovega drevesa in vsak naj pije vodo iz svojega vodnega zbiralnika,
32 Till I come, and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oliues oyle, and hony, that ye may liue and not die: and obey not Hezekiah, for he deceiueth you, saying, The Lord will deliuer vs.
dokler ne pridem in vas vzamem proč v deželo, podobno vaši lastni deželi, deželo žita in vina, deželo kruha in vinogradov, deželo olivnega olja in medu, da boste lahko živeli in ne umrli in ne prisluhnite Ezekíju, ko vas pregovarja, rekoč: › Gospod nas bo osvobodil.‹
33 Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his lande out of the hand of the King of Asshur?
Mar so katerikoli izmed bogov narodov mogli svojo deželo rešiti iz roke asirskega kralja?
34 Where is the god of Hamah, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? how haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?
Kje so bogovi Hamáta in Arpáda? Kje so bogovi Sefarvájima, Hene in Avája? Mar so Samarijo osvobodili iz moje roke?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that haue deliuered their lande out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?
Kdo so tisti izmed vseh bogov dežel, ki so svojo deželo rešili iz moje roke, da bi Gospod rešil Jeruzalem iz moje roke?‹«
36 But the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere ye him not.
Toda ljudstvo je molčalo in mu ni odgovorilo [niti] besede, kajti kraljeva zapoved je bila, rekoč: »Ne odgovarjajte mu.«
37 Then Eliakim, the sonne of Hilkiah which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
Potem so prišli Hilkijájev sin Eljakím, ki je bil nad družino, pisar Šebná in Asáfov sin Joáh, letopisec, k Ezekíju s svojimi pretrganimi oblačili in mu povedali Rabšakéjeve besede.
