< 2 Chronicles 28 >
1 Ahaz was 20 years old when he became the king [of Judah]. He ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. His ancestor King David was a good king, but Ahaz was not like David. He constantly disobeyed Yahweh
Aház je bil star dvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval šestnajst let, toda ni delal tega, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, kakor njegov oče David.
2 and was as sinful as the kings of Israel had been. He made idols of the god Baal.
Kajti hodil je po poteh Izraelovih kraljev in prav tako je naredil ulite podobe za Báale.
3 He burned incense in Hinnom Valley. He even [killed some of] his own sons [and] offered [them] as sacrifices to be completely burned. That imitated the disgusting customs of the people-groups who previously lived there, people whom Yahweh had expelled as the Israelis advanced through the land.
Poleg tega je zažigal kadilo v dolini Hinómovega sina in svoje otroke sežigal v ognju, po ogabnostih poganov, ki jih je Gospod pregnal pred Izraelovimi otroki.
4 Ahaz offered sacrifices [to idols] at shrines on hilltops and under every big green tree.
Tudi daroval je in zažigal kadilo na visokih krajih, na hribih in pod vsakim zelenim drevesom.
5 Therefore Yahweh his God allowed his army to be defeated by the army of the king of Syria. They captured many soldiers of Judah and took them as prisoners to Damascus. The army of the king of Israel also defeated the army of Judah and killed very many of their soldiers.
Zato ga je Gospod, njegov Bog, izročil v roko sirskega kralja in udarili so ga in izmed njih odvedli veliko množico ujetnikov in jih privedli v Damask. Izročen je bil tudi v roko Izraelovega kralja, ki ga je udaril z velikim pokolom.
6 In one day the army of Remaliah’s son, King Pekah [of Israel], killed 120,000 soldiers in Judah. That happened because [the people of] Judah had abandoned Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped].
Kajti Remaljájev sin Pékah jih je v Judu v enem dnevu ubil sto dvajset tisoč, ki so bili vsi hrabri možje, ker so zapustili Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
7 Zicri, a warrior from the tribe of Ephraim, killed king Ahaz’s son Maaseiah, Azrikam the officer in charge of the palace, and Elkanah, the king’s assistant.
Zihrí, mogočen mož iz Efrájima, je usmrtil kraljevega sina Maasejája, voditelja hiše Azrikáma in Elkanája, ki je bil poleg kralja.
8 The soldiers of Israel captured 200,000 of the people of Judah, including many wives and sons and daughters [of the soldiers of Judah]. They also seized and took back to Samaria many valuable things.
Izraelovi otroci so odvedli ujetnike izmed njihovih bratov, dvesto tisoč žensk, sinov in hčera ter od njih odvzeli tudi mnogo plena in plen prinesli v Samarijo.
9 But a prophet of Yahweh whose name was Obed was there [in Samaria]. He went out of the city to meet the army when it returned to Samaria. He said to them, “Because Yahweh, the God whom your ancestors [belonged to], was angry with [the people of] Judah, he allowed you to defeat them. But God has seen the cruel way that you slaughtered them.
Toda tam je bil Gospodov prerok, katerega ime je bilo Odéd in ta je šel ven pred vojsko, ki je prišla do Samarije ter jim rekel: »Glejte, ker je bil Gospod, Bog vaših očetov, besen na Juda, jih je izročil v vašo roko in vi ste jih umorili v besnenju, ki sega do nebes.
10 And now you want to [sin by] causing men and women from Judah to become your slaves, but you have certainly also sinned against Yahweh our God!
In sedaj ste se namenili, da obdržite Judove in jeruzalemske otroke, podrejene sebi za sužnje in sužnjice. Toda ali niso z vami, celo z vami, grehi zoper Gospoda, vašega Boga?
11 So listen to me! Send back [to Judah] your fellow-countrymen whom you have captured, because Yahweh is extremely angry with you [for what you did to them].”
Sedaj me torej poslušajte in ponovno osvobodite ujetnike, ki ste jih zajeli izmed svojih bratov, kajti nad vami je ogorčen Gospodov bes.
12 Then some of the leaders of [the tribe of] Ephraim—Azariah the son of Jehohanan, Berekiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai—rebuked those who were returning from the battle.
Potem so nekateri izmed poglavarjev Efrájimovih otrok, Johanánov sin Azarjá, Mešilemótov sin Berehjá, Šalúmov sin Hizkijá in Hadlájev sin Amasá vstali zoper tiste, ki so prišli iz vojne
13 They said to them, “You must not bring those prisoners here! If you do that, Yahweh will consider that we are guilty of sinning. We are already guilty of committing many sins; do you want to cause us to be even more guilty by committing another sin? God is already very angry with [us people of] Israel!”
ter jim rekli: »Ujetnikov ne boste privedli sèm, kajti kakor smo že grešili zoper Gospoda, ste se vi namenili, da dodate še več k našim grehom in k našemu prestopku, kajti naš prestopek je velik in zoper Izraela je ogorčen bes.
14 So, while their leaders and others were watching, the soldiers released the prisoners, and also gave back to them the valuable things that they had captured.
Tako so oboroženi možje pustili ujetnike in plen pred princi in pred vso skupnostjo.
15 The leaders who were selected took some of the clothes that the soldiers had taken from the prisoners and gave those clothes back to the people who were naked. They also gave to the prisoners sandals and other clothes and things to eat and drink, and they gave them olive oil to rub on their wounds. They gave donkeys to those who were very weak, in order that they could ride on them. Then they led them all to Jericho, the city that had many palm trees. Then those leaders [of Israel] returned to Samaria.
Možje, ki so bili določeni po imenu, so vstali, vzeli ujetnike in s plenom oblekli vse, ki so bili med njimi nagi, jih odeli, obuli, jim dali jesti in piti ter jih mazilili in vse slabotne med njimi odvedli na oslih ter jih privedli do Jerihe, mesta palmovih dreves, do njihovih bratov. Potem so se vrnili v Samarijo.
16 About that time, King Ahaz sent [a message] to the king of Assyria requesting help.
Ob tistem času je kralj Aház poslal k asirskim kraljem, da mu pomagajo.
17 [He did that because the army from] the Edom people-group had come again and attacked Judah and taken away many of the people of Judah as prisoners.
Kajti Edómci so ponovno prišli in udarili Juda in odvedli ujetnike.
18 At the same time, men from Philistia had raided/attacked towns in the foothills and in the southern desert of Judah. They had captured Beth-Shemesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth [cities], as well as Soco, Timnah and Gimzo [towns] and the nearby villages.
Filistejci so vdrli tudi v mesta spodnje dežele in jug Juda in zavzeli Bet Šemeš, Ajalón, Gederót, Sohó in njegove vasi, Timno z njenimi vasmi, tudi Gimzó in njegove vasi in tam prebivali.
19 Yahweh [allowed those things to happen in order to] humble king Ahaz, because he had encouraged the people of Judah to do wicked things and had disobeyed Yahweh very much.
Kajti Gospod je ponižal Juda zaradi Izraelovega kralja Aháza, kajti ta je slekel Juda in se hudo pregrešil zoper Gospoda.
20 Tiglath-Pileser, the king of Assyria, sent [his army saying that they would] help Ahaz, but instead of helping him, they caused him to experience trouble.
K njemu je prišel asirski kralj Tiglát Pilnéser in ga stiskal, toda ni ga okrepil.
21 Ahaz’s [soldiers] took some of the [valuable] things from the temple and from the king’s palace and from other leaders of Judah and sent them to the king of Assyria [to pay him to help them], but the king of Assyria refused to help Ahaz.
Kajti Aház je odvzel delež iz Gospodove hiše in iz kraljeve hiše in od princev in to dal asirskemu kralju, toda ta mu ni pomagal.
22 While King Ahaz was experiencing those troubles, he disobeyed Yahweh even more.
V času svoje stiske je še bolj grešil zoper Gospoda. To je ta kralj Aház.
23 He offered sacrifices to the gods that were worshiped in Damascus, whose [army] had defeated his [army]. He thought, “The gods that are worshiped by the kings of Syria have helped them, so I will offer sacrifices to those gods in order that they will help me.” But worshiping those gods caused Ahaz and all of Israel to be ruined.
Kajti žrtvoval je bogovom Damaska, ki so ga udarili in rekel: »Ker so jim pomagali bogovi sirskih kraljev, zato bom žrtvoval njim, da bi mi lahko pomagali.« Toda oni so bili propad njemu in vsemu Izraelu.
24 Ahaz gathered all the furnishings [that were used] in the temple and broke them into pieces. He locked the doors of the temple and set up altars [for worshiping idols] at every street corner in Jerusalem.
Aház je zbral skupaj posode iz Božje hiše, razbil na koščke posode iz Božje hiše in zaprl vrata Gospodove hiše ter si naredil oltarje na vsakem jeruzalemskem vogalu.
25 In every town in Judah, his workers built shrines to burn sacrifices to other gods, and that caused Yahweh, the God whom their ancestors [worshiped], to be very angry.
V vsakem posameznem Judovem mestu je postavil visoke kraje, da zažigajo kadilo drugim bogovom in do jeze dražijo Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
26 A record of the other things that Ahaz did while he was the king, from when he started to rule until he died, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah and Israel’.
Torej ostala njegova dela in vse njegove poti, prve in zadnje, glej, zapisane so v knjigi Judovih in Izraelovih kraljev.
27 Ahaz died and was buried in Jerusalem, but he was not buried in the tombs where the other kings [had been buried]. Then his son Hezekiah became the king.
Aház je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopali so ga v mestu, torej v Jeruzalemu. Toda niso ga prinesli v mavzoleje Izraelovih kraljev. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Ezekíja.
