1 Kings 14
1 At that time, Jeroboam’s son Abijah became very sick.
U ono se vrijeme razbolje Abija, sin Jeroboamov,
2 Jeroboam said to his wife, “Disguise yourself, in order that no one will recognize that you are my wife. Then go to Shiloh [city], where the prophet Ahijah [lives]. He is the one who predicted/prophesied that I would become the king of Israel.
i Jeroboam reče svojoj ženi: “Ustani i preobuci se da te ne bi prepoznali da si žena Jeroboamova; i idi u Šilo. Ondje je prorok Ahija: onaj koji mi je prorokovao da ću biti kraljem ovoga naroda.
3 Take with you ten [loaves of] bread and some small flat cakes, and a jar of honey, [and give them] to him. [Tell him about] our son, [and] he will tell you what will happen to him.”
I ponesi deset hljebova, kolača i posudu meda i otiđi k njemu! On će ti reći što će biti s dječakom.”
4 So his wife went to Shiloh, to Ahijah’s house. Ahijah was unable to see, because he was very old and had become blind.
I učini tako žena Jeroboamova: ustade, ode u Šilo i uđe u kuću Ahijinu. A on nije više vidio, oslabile mu oči od duboke starosti.
5 But [before she got there, ] Yahweh told Ahijah that Jeroboam’s wife was coming to inquire about their son, who was very sick. And Yahweh told Ahijah what he should tell her. When she came to him, she pretended to be another woman.
Ali mu je Jahve rekao: “Evo dolazi žena Jeroboamova da od tebe traži savjeta za svoga sina jer je bolestan; a ti ćeš joj reći tako i tako. Kad bude ulazila, pretvarat će se kao da je druga.”
6 But when Ahijah heard her footsteps as she entered the doorway, he said to her, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam! (Why do you pretend that you are someone else?/It will not help you to pretend that you are someone else.) [RHQ] [Yahweh] has given me bad news to tell you.
Kad Ahija ču šum njenih koraka na vratima, reče joj: “Uđi, ženo Jeroboamova! Što se pretvaraš da si druga, kad imam tešku vijest za tebe?
7 Go and tell Jeroboam that this is what Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says to you: ‘I chose you from among the common people and enabled you to become the king of my Israeli people.
Idi, reci Jeroboamu: 'Ovako kaže Jahve, Bog Izraelov: Podigao sam te isred naroda i učinio sam te knezom nad mojim narodom Izraelom,
8 I took [most of] the kingdom of Israel away from David’s descendants and gave it to you. But you have not been like David, who served me [very well]. He obeyed all my commandments very sincerely, doing only things that I considered to be right.
istrgnuo sam kraljevstvo iz kuće Davidove i dao ga tebi. Ali ti nisi bio kao moj sluga David, koji je držao moje zapovijedi i koji me slijedio svim srcem svojim i činio samo ono što je pravedno u mojim očima.
9 But you have done more evil things/deeds than all those [who ruled] before you. You have rejected me, and you have caused me to become very angry by making metal images of other gods so that you [and others] could worship them.
Ti si radio kudikamo gore od svojih prethodnika, otišao si i načinio sebi druge bogove, salio si im likove da me dražiš, mene si bacio za leđa.
10 ‘So, I am going to cause terrible things to happen to your family. I will cause all your male descendants to die, young ones and old ones. I will completely get rid of your family [MTY]. I will get rid of your family [MTY] just like a man completely burns dung [to cook his food].
Zato, evo, puštam zlo na kuću Jeroboamovu, istrijebit ću iz obitelji Jeroboamove sve što mokri uza zid, robove i slobodnjake u Izraelu; ja ću netragom pomesti kuću Jeroboamovu kao što se mete nečist, da ga ništa ne ostane.
11 [The corpses of] any members of your family who die in cities will be eaten by dogs. And [the corpses of] any members of your family who die in the open fields will be eaten by vultures. [This will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said [that it will happen].’
One koji iz Jeroboamove obitelji umru u gradu, proždrijet će psi, a one koji umru u polju, pojest će ptice nebeske.' - Eto tako je Jahve rekao.
12 So go back home. And as soon as you enter the city, your son will die.
A ti ustani i pođi svome domu: tek što nogama stupiš u grad, dječak će umrijeti.
13 All the Israeli people will mourn for him and bury him. He is the only one of Jeroboam’s family who will be buried [properly], because he is the only one of Jeroboam’s family with whom Yahweh is pleased.
Sav će ga Izrael oplakati i pokopat će ga. On će biti jedini iz obitelji Jeroboamove položen u grob, jer se jedino na njemu našlo nešto što se u kući Jeroboamovoj svidjelo Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu.
14 Furthermore, Yahweh will appoint for himself a king to rule over Israel who will get rid of Jeroboam’s descendants. And that [will start to happen] today!
Jahve će sebi postaviti kralja nad Izraelom i taj će istrijebiti kuću Jeroboamovu. Evo dana! Što? Čak i trenutka!
15 Yahweh will punish the people of Israel; he will shake them like [the wind] shakes the reeds [that grow in] a stream. He will expel the Israeli people from this good land that he gave to our ancestors. He will scatter them into countries east of [the Euphrates] River, because they have caused him to become very angry by [worshiping statues of] the goddess Asherah.
Jahve će udariti Izraela te će se njihati kao trska u vodi. Iščupat će Izraela iz ove dobre zemlje koju je dao njihovim ocima i rasijat će ih s onu stranu Rijeke, jer su načinili sebi ašere koje srde Jahvu.
16 Yahweh will abandon the Israeli people because of the sins that Jeroboam committed, sins which led the Israeli people to commit them.”
Odbacit će Izraela kao smeće, zbog grijeha što ih je učinio Jeroboam i na koje je navodio Izraela.”
17 Jeroboam’s wife returned home to Tirzah [city, the new capital of Israel]. And just as she entered her house, her son died.
Žena Jeroboamova ustade i ode. Stigla je u Tirsu, a kad je prelazila kućni prag, dječak bijaše mrtav.
18 All the Israeli people mourned for him and buried him, which is what Yahweh had told his servant, the prophet Ahijah, would happen.
Pokopali su ga i sav ga je Izrael oplakao prema riječi koju je Jahve rekao po sluzi svome proroku Ahiji.
19 Everything else that Jeroboam did, and the record of wars that his [army] fought, and how he ruled, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ostala povijest Jeroboamova, kako je ratovao i kraljevao, to je zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih.
20 Jeroboam ruled for 22 years; then he died [EUP] and his son Nadab became king.
Jeroboamovo kraljevanje trajalo je dvadeset i dvije godine, zatim je Jeroboam počinuo kraj otaca svojih, a sin mu Nadab zakraljio se mjesto njega.
21 Solomon’s son Rehoboam ruled Judah. He was 41 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled for 17 years. He ruled in Jerusalem, which is the city that Yahweh chose out of all the tribes of Israel to be the place where he should be worshiped [MTY]. Rehoboam’s mother’s name was Naamah; she was from the Ammon people-group.
Roboam, sin Salomonov, bio je kralj Judejaca; bijaše mu četrdeset i jedna godina kad je postao kraljem, a sedamnaest je godina kraljevao u Jeruzalemu, u gradu koji Jahve izabra između svih izraelskih plemena da ondje postavi svoje Ime. Majka mu se zvala Naama, a bila je Amonka.
22 The people of Judah did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. They caused him to become angry because they committed more sins than their ancestors had committed: They worshiped many other gods instead of worshiping only Yahweh.
I Juda učini zlo u očima Jahvinim. Grijesima koje su počinili razjarili su ga više od svega što su učinili njihovi oci.
23 They built places to worship those gods; on high hills, and under big trees they set up [stone] pillars to worship the goddess Asherah.
Jer su i oni podigli uzvišice, stupove i ašere na svakom brežuljku i pod svakim zelenim drvetom.
24 Also, there were male prostitutes at these places of worship. The Israeli people did the same disgraceful things that had been done by the people whom Yahweh had expelled while the Israelis were advancing through the land.
Bilo je čak posvećenih bludnica u zemlji. Oponašao je sve grozote naroda što ih je Jahve otjerao ispred sinova Izraelovih.
25 When Rehoboam had been ruling for almost five years, King Shishak of Egypt came [with his army] to attack Jerusalem.
Pete godine Roboamova kraljevanja egipatski kralj Šišak navali na Jeruzalem.
26 They took away all the valuable things in the temple and in the king’s palace, including the gold shields that Solomon’s [workers] had made.
Opljačka sve blago iz Doma Jahvina i riznicu kraljevskog dvora; sve je uzeo; uze i sve zlatne štitove što ih bijaše napravio Salomon.
27 King Rehoboam’s [workers] made bronze shields to replace them and entrusted them to officers who guarded the entrance to the king’s palace.
Namjesto njih kralj Roboam napravi tučane štitove i povjeri ih zapovjednicima straže koja je čuvala vrata kraljevskog dvora.
28 Every time that the king went into the temple, those guards carried those shields; and [when he left the temple] they returned the shields to the storeroom.
Kad je god kralj išao u Jahvin Dom, stražari su ih uzimali, a poslije ih vraćali u stražaru.
29 Everything else that Rehoboam did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Ostala povijest Roboamova, sve što je učinio, zar nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva judejskih?
30 There were wars continually between [the armies of] Rehoboam and Jeroboam.
Za sve vrijeme bio je rat između Roboama i Jeroboama.
31 Then Rehoboam died [EUP], and he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors were buried. Then his son Abijah became the king.
Roboam je počinuo sa svojim ocima i bi sahranjen sa svojim ocima u Davidovu gradu. Majka mu se zvala Naama, a bila je Amonka. Na njegovo se mjesto zakraljio sin mu Abijam.
