2 Chronicles 13

1 In the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.

Godine osamnaeste carovanja Jerovoamova zacari se Avija nad Judom.

2 Three years reigned he in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Micaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

Tri godine carova u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Mihaja, kæi Urilova iz Gavaje. A bijaše rat izmeðu Avije i Jerovoama.

3 And Abijah joined battle with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men; and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, who were mighty men of valour.

I Avija izide na boj s hrabrom vojskom, èetiri stotine tisuæa izabranijeh vojnika; a Jerovoam uvrsta prema njemu vojsku, osam stotina tisuæa izabranijeh hrabrijeh vojnika.

4 And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in the hill-country of Ephraim, and said: 'Hear me, O Jeroboam and all Israel;

I sta Avija navrh brda Semarajima u gori Jefremovoj, i reèe: èujte me, Jerovoame i sav Izrailju!

5 ought ye not to know that the LORD, the God of Israel, gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?

Ne trebaše li vam znati da je Gospod Bog Izrailjev predao Davidu carstvo nad Izrailjem dovijeka, njemu i sinovima njegovijem zavjetom osoljenijem?

6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up, and rebelled against his lord.

Ali usta Jerovoam sin Navatov, sluga Solomuna sina Davidova, i odvrže se od gospodara svojega.

7 And there were gathered unto him vain men, base fellows that strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and faint-hearted, and could not withstand them.

I skupiše se k njemu ljudi praznovi i nevaljalci, i odapriješe se Rovoamu sinu Solomunovu, koji bijaše dijete i strašljiva srca, te im se ne odaprije.

8 And now ye think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and ye are a great multitude, and there are with you the golden calves which Jeroboam made you for gods.

Pa vi sad velite da se oprete carstvu Gospodnjemu, koje je u ruku sinova Davidovijeh, jer vas je mnogo i imate kod sebe zlatne teoce, koje vam je naèinio Jerovoam da su vam bogovi.

9 Have ye not driven out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the peoples of other lands? so that whosoever cometh to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same becometh a priest of them that are no gods.

Nijeste li otjerali sveštenike Gospodnje sinove Aronove i Levite? i naèinili sebi sveštenike kao narodi po drugim zemljama? ko god doðe da mu se posvete ruke s teletom i sa sedam ovnova, postaje sveštenik onima koji nijesu bogovi.

10 But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken Him; and we have priests ministering unto the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work;

Ali s nama je Gospod Bog, niti smo ga ostavili, a sveštenici koji služe Gospodu jesu sinovi Aronovi, i Leviti rade svoj posao;

11 and they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt-offerings and sweet incense; the showbread also set they in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening; for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but ye have forsaken Him.

I pale Gospodu žrtve paljenice svako jutro i svako veèe, i kade mirisima, i hljebovi postavljeni stoje na èistom stolu, i pale se svako veèe žišci na zlatnom svijetnjaku; jer držimo što je Gospod Bog naš naredio, a vi ga ostaviste.

12 And, behold, God is with us at our head, and His priests with the trumpets of alarm to sound an alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight ye not against the LORD, the God of your fathers; for ye shall not prosper.'

Zato evo s nama je naprijed Bog i sveštenici njegovi i trube glasne da trube protivu vas. Sinovi Izrailjevi, ne vojujte na Gospoda Boga otaca svojih, jer neæete biti sreæni.

13 But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them; so they were before Judah, and the ambushment was behind them.

Ali Jerovoam zavede zasjedu da im zaðu za leða, i tako Judejcima bijahu sprijed jedni a s leða zasjeda.

14 And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind them; and they cried unto the LORD, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.

I kad se obazreše Judejci, a to boj i sprijed i sastrag, te povikaše ka Gospodu a sveštenici zatrubiše u trube.

15 Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

I narod Judin opet povika, i kad vikaše narod Judin, razbi Bog Jerovoama i svega Izrailja pred Avijom i Judom.

16 And the children of Israel fled before Judah; and God delivered them into their hand.

I pobjegoše sinovi Izrailjevi od Jude, i dade ih Bog njima u ruke.

17 And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter; so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.

I pobi ih ljuto Avija i narod njegov, i pade od Izrailja pobijenijeh pet stotina tisuæa odabranijeh ljudi.

18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the LORD, the God of their fathers.

Tako biše pokoreni sinovi Izrailjevi u to vrijeme, a sinovi Judini osiliše, jer se pouzdaše u Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.

19 And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephrain with the towns thereof.

I Avija potjera Jerovoama, i uze mu gradove Vetilj i sela njegova, i Jesanu i sela njezina, i Efron i sela njegova.

20 Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah; and the LORD smote him, and he died.

I Jerovoam se više ne oporavi za života Avijina; i udari ga Gospod, te umrije.

21 But Abijah waxed mighty, and took unto himself fourteen wives, and begot twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.

A Avija utvrdi se, i uze èetrnaest žena, i rodi dvadeset i dva sina i šesnaest kæeri.

22 And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo.

A ostala djela Avijina i putovi njegovi i besjede njegove zapisane su u knjizi proroka Ida.
