1 Kings 15
1 After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 18 years, Abijah became the king of Judah.
Osamnaeste godine kraljevanja Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, zakraljio se Abijam u Judeji.
2 He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah, the granddaughter of [David’s son] Absalom.
Tri je godine kraljevao u Jeruzalemu; njegova se majka zvala Maaka, a bila je kći Abšalomova.
3 Abijah committed the same kind of sins that his father had committed. He was not fully dedicated/committed to Yahweh his God, as his grandfather David had been.
On je hodio u svim grijesima što ih je njegov otac činio prije njega, i njegovo srce nije bilo potpuno odano Jahvi, Bogu svome, kao srce njegova praoca Davida.
4 But, because of [what Yahweh his God had promised to] David, Yahweh gave Abijah a son [MET] to rule in Jerusalem after him, and in order to protect Jerusalem [from their enemies].
Ipak, zbog Davida, dao mu je Jahve, Bog njegov, svjetiljku u Jeruzalemu, podigavši sinove njegove poslije njega i sačuvavši Jeruzalem.
5 Yahweh did that because David had always done what pleased Yahweh and because David had always obeyed Yahweh. The only time when he disobeyed Yahweh was when he caused Uriah [to be killed].
Jer je David činio sve što je pravo u očima Jahvinim i za svega svoga života nije odstupio ni od čega što mu je zapovjedio, osim onog što je učinio Uriji Hetitu.
6 There were wars between [the armies of] Rehoboam and Jeroboam all during the time that Abijah ruled.
7 Everything else that Abijah did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Ostala povijest Abijamova, sve što je učinio, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva judejskih? A bijaše rat između Abijama i Jeroboama.
8 Abijah died [EUP] and was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, and his son Asa became king.
Potom je Abijam počinuo sa svojim ocima. Sahraniše ga u Davidovu gradu; na njegovo se mjesto zakralji sin mu Asa.
9 After Jeroboam had been the king of Israel for almost 20 years, Asa started to rule Judah.
Dvadesete godine Jeroboamova kraljevanja nad Izraelom postade Asa kraljem Judeje.
10 He ruled in Jerusalem for 41 years. His grandmother was Maacah, the granddaughter of Absalom.
Kraljevao je četrdeset i jednu godinu u Jeruzalemu; njegova se baka zvala Maaka, a bila je kći Abšalomova.
11 Asa did what was pleasing to Yahweh, as his ancestor David had done.
Asa je činio što je pravo u očima Jahvinim, kao i njegov praotac David.
12 He got rid of the male prostitutes that were at the places where the people worshiped idols, and he also got rid of all the idols that his ancestors had made.
Protjerao je iz zemlje posvećene bludnice i uklonio sve idole koje njegovi oci bijahu načinili.
13 He also removed his grandmother Maacah so that she no longer had influence in the government [because of] being the mother of a previous king. He did that because she had made a disgusting [wooden] statue of the goddess Asherah. Asa [told his workers to] cut down the statue and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
Sam je uklonio svoju baku s dostojanstva velike kneginje, jer bijaše načinila gada Ašeri. Asa je sasjekao njezina gada i spalio ga u potoku Kidronu.
14 He was not able to destroy all the places where the people worshiped [idols] on the high hills, but he continued to be dedicated/committed to Yahweh his entIre life.
Ali uzvišice nisu bile uklonjene; ipak je Asino srce bilo privrženo Jahvi svega njegova života.
15 He [told his workers to] place in the temple all the items that his father had dedicated to God, and all the gold and silver things that he had dedicated to God.
Unio je u Dom Jahvin posvećene darove svoga oca i svoje: srebro, zlato i posuđe.
16 There were wars between [the armies of] Asa and Baasha, the king of Israel, all during the time that they ruled.
Bio je rat između Ase i Baše, kralja izraelskoga, u sve njihove dane.
17 Baasha’s army invaded Judah. They captured Ramah [town north of Jerusalem]. Then they started to build a wall around it in order to prevent people from entering or leaving the area in Judah that was ruled by King Asa.
Izraelski kralj Baša navali na Judeju i stade utvrđivati Ramu da spriječi svako kretanje judejskom kralju Asi.
18 So Asa [told] his workers [to] take all the silver and gold that was still in the storerooms in the temple and in the palace. He told them to take it to Damascus and give it to King Ben-Hadad who ruled Syria. Ben-Hadad was the son of Tabrimmon and grandson of Hezion. He told the workers to say this to Ben-Hadad:
Asa tada uze srebra i zlata koje je preostalo u riznicama Doma Jahvina i u riznicama kraljevskog dvora i dade ga svojim slugama te ih posla Ben-Hadadu, sinu Tabrimonovu, sinu Hezjonovu, aramejskom kralju, koji je stolovao u Damasku, i poruči mu:
19 “I want there to be a peace treaty between you and me, like there was between your father and my father. For that reason, I am giving you this silver and gold. So now please cancel the treaty that you made with Baasha, the king of Israel, in order that he will take his soldiers away from attacking mine, [because he will be afraid of your army].”
“Neka bude savez između mene i tebe, između moga i tvoga oca; evo, šaljem ti na dar srebra i zlata: hajde, raskini savez s izraelskim kraljem Bašom da bi otišao od mene.”
20 [So the workers went and gave the message to] Ben-Hadad, [and he] did what Asa suggested. He sent his army commanders [and their soldiers] to attack some of the towns in Israel. They captured Ijon, Dan, Abel-Beth-Maacah, the area near Galilee Lake, and all the land of [the tribe of] Naphtali.
Ben-Hadad posluša kralja Asu i posla svoje vojskovođe na izraelske gradove te oni pokoriše Ijon, Dan, Abel Bet-Maaku, sav Kineret i svu zemlju Naftali.
21 When Baasha heard about that, he [told his soldiers to] stop working at Ramah. He [and his soldiers returned to] Tirzah [and] stayed there.
A kada to Baša dozna, presta utvrđivati Ramu i vrati se u Tirsu.
22 Then King Asa sent a message to all the [people in the] towns in Judah, stating that they all were required to go to Ramah and carry away the stones and timber that Baasha’s soldiers had been using to build a wall around the city. With those stones and timber they fortified Mizpah [city north of Jerusalem], and Geba, [a town] in the territory of the tribe of Benjamin.
Kralj Asa sazva sve Judejce, bez izuzetka, i oni odnesoše kamenje i drvo kojima je Baša utvrđivao Ramu, i kralj Asa utvrdi time Gebu Benjaminovu i Mispu.
23 Everything else that Asa did, the armies that his soldiers defeated, and the names of the cities that he caused to be fortified, are [RHQ] written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’. But when Asa became old, he got a disease in his feet.
Ostala povijest Asina, sve njegove pobjede i sve što je učinio i gradovi koje je utvrdio, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva judejskih? A u starosti bolovao je od nogu.
24 He died [EUP] and was buried where his ancestors were buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Jehoshaphat became king.
Asa je počinuo sa svojim ocima i sahranjen je sa svojim ocima u gradu Davida, svoga praoca. Njegov sin Jošafat zakralji se mjesto njega.
25 After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost two years, King Jeroboam’s son Nadab started to rule Israel. He ruled for two years.
Nadab, sin Jeroboamov, postade kraljem Izraela druge godine Asina kraljevanja Judejom i vladao je dvije godine Izraelom.
26 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. His behavior was sinful like his father’s behavior had been, and what he did led the people of Israel to sin.
Činio je zlo u očima Jahvinim. Hodio je putem svoga oca i oponašao njegov grijeh na koji je navodio Izraela.
27 [A man named] Baasha, from the tribe of Issachar, planned to harm him. He killed Nadab when Nadab and his army had surrounded Gibbethon [city] in the Philistia area.
Baša, sin Ahijin, iz kuće Jisakarove, uroti se protiv njega i ubi ga u Gibetonu, koji pripada Filistejcima i koji su opsjedali Nadab i sav Izrael.
28 That [DOU] was when Asa had been [the king ruling] Judah for almost three years. Then Baasha became the king of Israel.
Baša ga ubi treće godine Asina kraljevanja Judejom i zavlada mjesto njega.
29 As soon as Baasha became king, [he commanded his soldiers to] kill all of Jeroboam’s family. Doing what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh would happen, they killed all of Jeroboam’s family. None of them (was left/remained alive).
Kad je postao kraljem, pobi svu kuću Jeroboamovu i ne poštedi nikoga od Jeroboamovih dokle sve ne istrijebi po riječi koju je Jahve rekao preko sluge svoga Ahije iz Šila.
30 That happened because Yahweh had become very angry with Jeroboam because of all the sins that Jeroboam had committed, and because of the sins that he had persuaded the people of Israel to commit.
Zbog grijeha što ih je učinio i na koje je naveo Izraela i zbog gnjeva kojim je raspalio Jahvu, Boga Izraelova.
31 Everything else that Nadab did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ostala povijest Nadabova, i sve što je učinio, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
32 There were wars between [the armies of] King Asa and King Baasha all the time that they ruled.
Između Ase i Izraelova kralja Baše vladao je rat u sve njihove dane.
33 After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost three years, Baasha, the son of Ahijah, started to rule Israel at Tirzah [city]. He ruled for 24 years.
Treće godine Asina kraljevanja Judejom postade Baša, sin Ahijin, kraljem nad svim Izraelom u Tirsi i vladao je dvadeset i četiri godine.
34 He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil, and his behavior was sinful like his father’s had been, and he led the people of Israel to sin.
Činio je zlo u očima Jahvinim i hodio je putem Jeroboama i njegovih grijeha kojima je zavodio Izraelce.
