< 2 Chronicles 25 >
1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-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 He did that which was right in the eyes 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 happened, when the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, that he killed his servants who had killed his father the king.
Pripetilo se je torej, ko mu je bilo kraljestvo utrjeno, da je usmrtil svoja služabnika, ki sta ubila kralja, njegovega očeta.
4 But he did not put their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the scroll of Moses, as 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 ordered them according to their fathers' houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go forth to war, who 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 one hundred thousand mighty men of valor out of Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
Najel je tudi sto tisoč močnih junaških mož iz Izraela za sto talentov srebra.
7 A man of God came to him, saying, "O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you; for YHWH is not with Israel, with all the people 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 you will go, take action, be strong for the battle. God will overthrow you before the enemy; for God has power to help, and to overthrow."
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 Amaziah said to the man of God, "But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?" The man of God answered, "YHWH is able to give you 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, the army that had come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: therefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce 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 Amaziah took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the Valley of Salt, and struck ten thousand of the people of Seir.
Amacjá se je okrepil in vodil svoje ljudstvo in odšel v solno dolino in jih izmed Seírovih otrok pobil deset tisoč.
12 The people of Judah carry away ten thousand alive, and brought them to the top of the rock, and threw them down from the top of the rock, so 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 men of the army whom Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell on the cities of Judah, from Samaria even to Beth Horon, and struck of them three thousand, 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 happened, after that Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense to 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 Therefore the anger of YHWH was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent to him a prophet, who said to him, "Why have you sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of your 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 It happened, as he talked with him, that the king said to him, "Have we made you one of the king's counselors? Stop. Why should you be struck down?" Then the prophet stopped, and said, "I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this, and have not listened to 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 consulted his advisers, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us look 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 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 your daughter to my son as his wife; then a wild animal that was in Lebanon passed by, and trampled 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 You say to yourself that you have struck Edom; and your heart lifts you up to boast. Now stay at home. Why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall, even you, and Judah with you?'"
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 listen; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought after the gods 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 king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs 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 Judah was defeated by 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 Joash 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 broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, six hundred eighty-nine feet.
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 He took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in God's house 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 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, look, aren't they 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 from the time that Amaziah turned away from following YHWH, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and killed 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 They brought him on horses, and buried him with his fathers in the City of David.
Pripeljali so ga na konjih in ga pokopali z njegovimi očeti v Judovem mestu.
