2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
Amacjá je bil star petindvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval devetindvajset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Joadána iz Jeruzalema.
2 And he did that which was right in the sight of YHWH, but not with a perfect heart.
Delal je to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, toda ne s popolnim srcem.
3 Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.
Pripetilo se je torej, ko mu je bilo kraljestvo utrjeno, da je usmrtil svoja služabnika, ki sta ubila kralja, njegovega očeta.
4 But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where YHWH commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
Toda njunih otrok ni usmrtil, temveč je storil, kakor je to zapisano v postavi Mojzesove knjige, kjer je Gospod zapovedal, rekoč: ›Očetje ne bodo umrli zaradi otrok niti ne bodo otroci umrli zaradi očetov, temveč bo vsak človek umrl zaradi svojega lastnega greha.‹
5 Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.
Poleg tega je Amacjá zbral skupaj Juda in jih postavil za tisočnike in stotnike, glede na hiše njihovih očetov, po vsem Judu in Benjaminu. Preštel jih je od starosti dvajset let navzgor in jih našel tristo tisoč izbranih mož, zmožnih iti na vojno, ki so lahko zgrabili sulico in ščit.
6 He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.
Najel je tudi sto tisoč močnih junaških mož iz Izraela za sto talentov srebra.
7 But there came a man of Elohim to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for YHWH is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.
Toda tam je prišel k njemu Božji mož, rekoč: »Oh kralj, naj Izraelova vojska ne gre s teboj, kajti Gospod ni z Izraelom, namreč z vsemi Efrájimovi otroci.
8 But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: Elohim shall make thee fall before the enemy: for Elohim hath power to help, and to cast down.
Toda če ti hočeš iti, stori to, bodi močan za bitko. Bog ti bo storil, da padeš pred sovražnikom, kajti Bog ima moč, da pomaga in da podere.«
9 And Amaziah said to the man of Elohim, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of Elohim answered, YHWH is able to give thee much more than this.
Amacjá je rekel Božjemu možu: »Toda kaj naj storimo zaradi stotih talentov, ki sem jih dal Izraelovi vojski?« Božji mož je odgovoril: » Gospod ti je zmožen dati veliko več kakor to.«
10 Then Amaziah separated them, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.
Potem jih je Amacjá ločil, namreč vojsko, ki je prišla k njemu iz Efrájima, da gre ponovno domov. Zato je bila njihova jeza silno vžgana zoper Juda in domov so se vrnili v veliki jezi.
11 And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the chidren of Seir ten thousand.
Amacjá se je okrepil in vodil svoje ljudstvo in odšel v solno dolino in jih izmed Seírovih otrok pobil deset tisoč.
12 And other ten thousand left alive did the children of Judah carry away captive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.
Drugih deset tisoč pa so Judovi otroci pustili žive, jih odvedli ujete in jih privedli na vrh skale ter jih vrgli dol iz vrha skale, da so bili razbiti na koščke.
13 But the soldiers of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-horon, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil.
Toda vojaki vojske, ki jih je Amacjá poslal nazaj, da ne bi šli z njim na bitko, so vpadli na Judova mesta od Samarije celo do Bet Horóna in pobili tri tisoč izmed njih in zajeli veliko plena.
14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the elohim of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his elohim, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.
Pripetilo se je torej, potem ko je Amacjá prišel od pokola Edómcev, da je prinesel bogove Seírjevih otrok in jih postavil, da bodo njegovi bogovi, se priklanjal pred njimi in jim zažigal kadilo.
15 Wherefore the anger of YHWH was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the elohim of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thine hand?
Zato je bila Gospodova jeza vžgana zoper Amacjá in mu je poslal preroka, ki mu je rekel: »Zakaj si iskal za bogovi ljudstva, ki niso mogli rešiti svoje lastno ljudstvo iz tvoje roke?«
16 And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king's counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that Elohim hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
Pripetilo se je, ko je govoril z njim, da mu je kralj rekel: »Mar si postavljen za kraljevega svetovalca? Odnehaj. Zakaj bi bil udarjen?« Potem je prerok odnehal in rekel: »Vem, da je Bog določil, da te uniči, ker si to storil in nisi prisluhnil mojemu nasvetu.«
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face.
Potem je Judov kralj Amacjá sprejel nasvet in poslal k Jehoášu, Joaházovemu sinu, Jehújevemu sinu, Izraelovemu kralju, rekoč: »Pridi, poglejva drug drugemu v obraz.«
18 And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.
Izraelov kralj Jehoáš pa je poslal k Judovemu kralju Amacjáju, rekoč: »Osat, ki je bil na Libanonu, je poslal k cedri, ki je bila na Libanonu, rekoč: ›Daj svojo hčer mojemu sinu za ženo.‹ In tam mimo je šla divja zver, ki je bila na Libanonu in pomendrala osat.
19 Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?
Ti praviš: ›Glej, udaril si Edómce in tvoje srce te je povzdignilo do bahanja. Ostani torej doma, zakaj bi se vmešaval v svojo bolečino, da bi padel, celó ti in Juda s teboj?‹«
20 But Amaziah would not hear; for it came of Elohim, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the elohim of Edom.
Toda Amacjá ni hotel slišati, kajti to je prišlo od Boga, da bi jih on lahko izročil v roko njihovih sovražnikov, ker so iskali za edómskimi bogovi.
21 So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
Tako je Izraelov kralj Jehoáš odšel gor in videla sta drug drugega v obraz, tako on in Judov kralj Amacjá, pri Bet Šemešu, ki pripada Judu.
22 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.
Juda je bil na slabšem pred Izraelom in pobegnili so vsak mož k svojemu šotoru.
23 And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits
Izraelov kralj Jehoáš je prijel Judovega kralja Amacjá, Joáševega sina, Joaházovega sina pri Bet Šemešu in ga privedel v Jeruzalem in porušil jeruzalemsko obzidje od Efrájimovih velikih vrat do vogalnih velikih vrat, štiristo komolcev.
24 And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of Elohim with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the king's house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
Vzel je vse zlato, srebro in vse posode, ki so bile najdene v Božji hiši z Obéd Edómom in zaklade kraljeve hiše, tudi talce in se vrnil v Samarijo.
25 And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
Joášev sin Amacjá, kralj Juda, je po smrti Izraelovega kralja, Joaházovega sina Jehoáša, živel petnajst let.
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
Torej preostala izmed Amacjájevih dejanj, prva in zadnja, glej, mar niso zapisana v knjigi Judovih in Izraelovih kraljev?
27 Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following YHWH they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.
Torej po času, ko se je Amacjá odvrnil od sledenja Gospodu, so v Jeruzalemu zoper njega skovali zaroto; on pa je pobegnil v Lahíš. Toda poslali so za njim v Lahíš in ga tam usmrtili.
28 And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
Pripeljali so ga na konjih in ga pokopali z njegovimi očeti v Judovem mestu.
