< 2 Kings 16 >
1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.
V sedemnajstem letu Remaljájevega sina Pékaha je začel kraljevati Aház, sin Judovega kralja Jotáma.
2 Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not that which was right in the eyes of the LORD his God, like David his father.
Dvajset let je bil Aház star, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval šestnajst let in ni počel tega, kar je bilo pravilno v očeh Gospoda, njegovega Boga, kakor njegov oče David.
3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.
Temveč je hodil po poti Izraelovih kraljev, da, in svojemu sinu storil, da gre skozi ogenj, glede na ogabnosti poganov, ki jih je Gospod pregnal izpred Izraelovih otrok.
4 And he sacrificed and offered in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
Žrtvoval je in zažigal kadilo na visokih krajih, na hribih in pod vsakim zelenim drevesom.
5 Then Rezin king of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war; and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.
Potem sta sirski kralj Recín in Izraelov kralj, Remaljájev sin Pékah, prišla gor v Jeruzalem, da se vojskujeta in oblegala Aháza, toda nista ga mogla premagati.
6 At that time Rezin king of Aram recovered Elath to Aram, and drove the Jews from Elath; and the Edomites came to Elath, and dwelt there, unto this day.
Ob tistem času je sirski kralj Recín Elát povrnil Siriji, Jude pa pregnal iz Eláta in Sirci so prišli v Elát in tam prebivajo do današnjega dne.
7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying: 'I am thy servant and thy son; come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Aram, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me.'
Tako je Aház poslal poslance k asirskemu kralju Tiglát Piléserju, rekoč: »Jaz sem tvoj služabnik in tvoj sin. Pridi gor in me reši iz roke sirskega kralja in iz roke Izraelovega kralja, ki sta se vzdignila zoper mene.«
8 And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.
Aház je vzel srebro in zlato, ki je bilo najdeno v Gospodovi hiši in v zakladnicah kraljeve hiše in to poslal kot dar asirskemu kralju.
9 And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.
Asirski kralj mu je prisluhnil, kajti asirski kralj je odšel gor zoper Damask, ga zavzel in njegovo ljudstvo odvedel ujeto v Kir in usmrtil Recína.
10 And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, and saw the altar that was at Damascus; and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.
Kralj Aház je odšel k Damasku, da sreča asirskega kralja Tiglát Piléserja in zagledal oltar, ki je bil pri Damasku in kralj Aház je duhovniku Urijáju poslal videz oltarja in njegov vzorec glede na vso njegovo izdelavo.
11 And Urijah the priest built an altar; according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so did Urijah the priest make it against the coming of king Ahaz from Damascus.
Duhovnik Urijá je zgradil oltar glede na vse, kar je kralj Aház poslal iz Damaska. Tako ga je duhovnik Urijá naredil, preden je kralj Aház prišel iz Damaska.
12 And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar; and the king drew near unto the altar, and offered thereon.
Ko je kralj prišel iz Damaska, je kralj zagledal oltar. Kralj se je približal oltarju in daroval na njem.
13 And he offered his burnt-offering and his meal-offering, and poured his drink-offering, and dashed the blood of his peace-offerings against the altar.
Zažgal je svojo žgalno daritev, svojo jedilno daritev, izlil svojo pitno daritev in poškropil kri svojih mirovnih daritev na oltar.
14 And the brazen altar, which was before the LORD, he brought from the forefront of the house, from between his altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of his altar.
Privedel je tudi bronast oltar, ki je bil pred Gospodom od sprednjega dela hiše, izmed oltarja in Gospodove hiše ter ga postavil na severno stran oltarja.
15 And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying: 'Upon the great altar offer the morning burnt-offering, and the evening meal-offering, and the king's burnt-offering, and his meal-offering, with the burnt-offering of all the people of the land, and their meal-offering, and their drink-offerings; and dash against it all the blood of the burnt-offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the brazen altar shall be for me to look to.'
Kralj Aház je zapovedal duhovniku Urijáju, rekoč: »Na vélikem oltarju zažigaj jutranjo žgalno daritev, večerno jedilno daritev, kraljevo žgalno daritev, njegovo jedilno daritev z žgalno daritvijo vsega ljudstva dežele in njihovo jedilno daritvijo, njihovimi pitnimi daritvami in nanj poškropi vso kri žgalne daritve in vso kri klavne daritve, bronasti oltar pa mi bo, da z njim poizvedujem.«
16 Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.
Tako je storil duhovnik Urijá, glede na vse, kar je kralj Aház zapovedal.
17 And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stone.
Kralj Aház je odsekal robove podstavkov in [okrogel] umivalnik odstranil iz njih. Morje je snel iz bronastih volov, ki so bili pod njim in ga položil na tlak iz kamnov.
18 And the covered place for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he unto the house of the LORD, because of the king of Assyria.
Stebrišče za šabat, ki so ga zgradili v hiši in kraljevi vhod zunaj, je zaradi asirskega kralja obrnil od Gospodove hiše.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Torej preostala izmed Aházovih dejanj, ki jih je storil, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Judovih kraljev?
20 And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
Aház je zaspal s svojimi očeti in s svojimi očeti je bil pokopan v Davidovem mestu. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Ezekíja.
