< 2 Chronicles 23 >
1 And, in the seventh year, Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the rulers of hundreds—even Azariah son of Jeroham, and Ishmael son of Jehohanan, and Azariah son of Obed, and Maaseiah son of Adaiah and Elishaphat son of Zichri—unto himself, in covenant.
V sedmem letu se je Jojadá okrepil in vzel poveljnike nad stotimi: Jerohámovega sina Azarjája, Johanánovega sina Jišmaéla, Obédovega sina Azarjája, Adajájevega sina Maasejája in Zihríjevega sina Elišafáta v zavezo z njim.
2 And they went round throughout Judah, and gathered together the Levites out of all the cities of Judah, and the ancestral chiefs of Israel, —and they came into Jerusalem.
Ti so šli naokoli po Judu in zbrali Lévijevce iz vseh Judovih mest in vodje Izraelovih očetov ter prišli v Jeruzalem.
3 And all the convocation solemnised a covenant in the house of God, with the king, —and he said to them, Lo! the king’s son must reign, as spake Yahweh concerning the sons of David.
Vsa skupnost je sklenila zavezo s kraljem v Božji hiši. Rekel jim je: »Glejte, kraljev sin bo kraljeval, kakor je Gospod rekel o Davidovih sinovih.
4 This, is the thing that ye shall do, —A third of you entering on the sabbath, both of the priests and of the Levites, as doorkeepers of the porch;
To je stvar, ki jo boste storili: ›Tretjina izmed vas, ki vstopi na šabat, od duhovnikov in od Lévijevcev, boste vratarji vrat,
5 and a third, being in the house of the king, and a third, at the foundation gate, —and all the people, being in the courts of the house of Yahweh,
tretjina bo pri kraljevi hiši in tretjina pri temeljnih velikih vratih, vse ljudstvo pa bo na dvorih Gospodove hiše.
6 then let no one enter the house of Yahweh, save only the priests, and they who are in attendance of the Levites, they, may enter, for, holy, they are, -but, all the people, shall keep the watch of Yahweh.
Toda nihče naj ne pride v Gospodovo hišo, razen duhovnikov in tistih, ki služijo od Lévijevcev; oni bodo vstopili, kajti oni so sveti, toda vse ljudstvo bo Gospodova straža.
7 So shall the Levites encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, and, he that entereth into the house, shall be put to death. Thus be ye with the king, when he cometh in and when he goeth out.
Lévijevci bodo naokoli obdali kralja, vsak mož s svojim orožjem v svoji roki in kdorkoli drug pride v hišo, bo usmrčen, toda vi bodite s kraljem, ko vstopa in ko gre ven.
8 So the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded, and they took every man his men, who were coming in on the sabbath, with them who were going out on the sabbath, —for Jehoiada the priest dismissed not the courses.
Tako so Lévijevci in ves Juda storili glede na vse stvari, ki jih je duhovnik Jojadá zapovedal ter vzeli vsak mož svoje može, ki so vstopali na šabat, s tistimi, ki so na šabat odhajali ven, kajti duhovnik Jojadá ni odpustil skupin.
9 And Jehoiada the priest gave unto the captains of hundreds, the spears and the bucklers and the shields, which belonged to King David, —which were in the house of God.
Poleg tega je duhovnik Jojadá poveljnikom izročil stotine sulic, oklepe in ščite, ki so bili [od] kralja Davida, ki so bili v Božji hiši.
10 And be caused all the people to stand, even every man with his weapon in his hand, from the right corner of the house as far as the left corner of the house, by the altar and the house, —near the king round about.
Postavil je vse ljudstvo, vsakega moža s svojim orožjem v svoji roki, od desne strani templja, do leve strani templja, vzdolž oltarja in templja, naokoli kralja.
11 Then brought they forth the king’s son, and set upon him the crown and the testimony, and made him king, —and Jehoiada and his sons anointed him, and said, May the king live!
Potem so privedli ven kraljevega sina in nanj položili krono in mu izročili pričevanje ter ga postavili [za] kralja. Jojadá in njegovi sinovi so ga mazilili ter rekli: »Živel kralj.«
12 Now, when Athaliah heard the noise of the people who were running, and those who were praising the king, —then came she unto the people in the house of Yahweh;
Torej ko je Ataljá zaslišala hrup ljudstva teči in slaviti kralja, je prišla k ljudstvu v Gospodovo hišo.
13 and looked, and lo! the king, standing by his pillar at the entrance, and the captains and the trumpets by the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing, and blowing with trumpets, and the singers, with instruments of song, and such as led the offering of praise, then Athaliah rent her garments, and said, Conspiracy! conspiracy!
Pogledala je in glej, kralj je stal pri svojem stebru ob vhodu in princi ter trobente poleg kralja. Vse ljudstvo dežele se je veselilo in trobilo s trobentami, tudi pevci z glasbenimi instrumenti in tisti, ki so učili peti hvalo. Potem je Ataljá pretrgala svoja oblačila in rekla: »Izdaja, izdaja.«
14 Then Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of hundreds, officers of the force, and said unto them, Take her forth within the ranks, and he that cometh in after her let him be slain with the sword, —for, said the priest, Ye must not slay her in the house of Yahweh!
Potem je duhovnik Jojadá privedel ven poveljnike nad stotimi, ki so bili postavljeni nad vojsko in jim rekel: »Odpeljite jo iz dosega in kdorkoli ji sledi, naj bo umorjen z mečem. Kajti duhovnik je rekel: ›Ne umorite je v Gospodovi hiši.‹«
15 So they made way for her, and she came into the entrance of the horse-gate of the house of the king, —and they slew her there.
Tako so nanjo položili roke in ko je prišla do vhoda velikih konjskih vrat, ob kraljevi hiši, so jo tam usmrtili.
16 And Jehoiada solemnised a covenant, between himself and all the people, and the king, —that they should become a people unto Yahweh.
Jojadá je sklenil zavezo med seboj, med vsem ljudstvom in med kraljem, da bi bili Gospodovo ljudstvo.
17 Then all the people entered into the house of Baal and brake it down, and, his altars and his images, brake they in pieces, —and, Mattan the priest of Baal, they slew, before the altars.
Potem je vse ljudstvo odšlo k Báalovi hiši, jo porušilo, razbilo njene oltarje in njene podobe na koščke in pred oltarji usmrtilo Báalovega duhovnika Matána.
18 And Jehoiada put the oversight of the house of Yahweh into the hand of the priests and the Levites, whom David set by courses over the house of Yahweh, that they might offer up the ascending-sacrifices of Yahweh, as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and with song, —under the direction of David.
Jojadá je določil tudi službe Gospodove hiše po roki Lévijevih duhovnikov, ki jih je David porazdelil v Gospodovi hiši, da darujejo Gospodove žgalne daritve, kakor je to zapisano v Mojzesovi postavi, z razveseljevanjem in prepevanjem, kakor je bilo to odrejeno po Davidu.
19 And he caused gatekeepers to stand, at the gates of the house of Yahweh, —that no one who was unclean should, on any account, enter.
Postavil je vratarje pri velikih vratih Gospodove hiše, da nihče, ki je bil nečist v katerikoli stvari, ne bi vstopil.
20 Then took he the captains of hundreds—and the nobles—and the rulers over the people—and all the people of the land, and brought down the king out of the house of Yahweh, and they entered, through the midst of the upper gate, into the house of the king, —and they seated the king, upon the throne of the kingdom.
Vzel je poveljnike izmed stotih, plemiče in voditelje izmed ljudstva in vse ljudstvo dežele ter kralja privedel dol iz Gospodove hiše in prišli so skozi velika vrata v kraljevo hišo ter kralja postavili na prestol kraljestva.
21 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and, the city, was quiet, —when, Athaliah, they had slain with the sword.
Vse ljudstvo dežele se je veselilo in mesto je bil mirno, potem ko so Ataljo umorili z mečem.
