2 Kings 14
1 After Jehoash had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Joash’s son Amaziah became the king of Judah.
Druge godine carovanja Joasa sina Joahazova nad Izrailjem zacari se Amasija sin Joasov nad Judom.
2 He was 25 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled in Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Jehoaddin; she was from Jerusalem.
Bijaše mu dvadeset i pet godina kad poèe carovati, i carova dvadeset i devet godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Joadana, iz Jerusalima.
3 Amaziah did many things that pleased Yahweh, but he did not do as many things that pleased Yahweh as King David had done. He did some of the good things that his father Joash had done.
I èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom, ali ne kao David otac njegov; sasvijem èinjaše onako kako je èinio otac njegov Joas.
4 But, [like his father, ] he did not tear down the places for worshipping Yahweh at pagan shrines. The people continued to burn incense [to honor Yahweh] on those hills [instead of in Jerusalem, the place that Yahweh had appointed].
Jer visine ne biše oborene: narod još prinošaše žrtve i kaðaše na visinama.
5 As soon as he was completely in control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
A kad se utvrdi carstvo u ruci njegovoj, on pobi sluge svoje koje su ubile cara oca njegova.
6 But he did not execute their children. He obeyed what was written in the laws that God gave to Moses: “Parents must not be executed for [the crimes/sins committed by] their children, and children must not be executed for [crimes/sins committed by] their parents. People must be executed only for the sins that they themselves [have committed].”
Ali sinova tijeh krvnika ne pobi, kao što piše u knjizi zakona Mojsijeva, gdje je zapovjedio Gospod govoreæi: ocevi da ne ginu za sinove niti sinovi za oceve, nego svaki za svoj grijeh neka gine.
7 Amaziah’s soldiers killed 10,000 soldiers of the Edom people-group in the Salt Valley [south of the Dead Sea], and they captured Sela [city] and gave it a new name, Joktheel. That is still its name.
On pobi deset tisuæa Edomaca u slanoj dolini, i uze Selu ratom, i prozva je Jokteil, koje osta do danas.
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to King Jehoash of Israel, saying “Come here and let’s talk together.”
Tada posla Amasija poslanike k Joasu sinu Joahaza sina Jujeva, caru Izrailjevu, i reèe: doði da se ogledamo.
9 But King Jehoash replied to King Amaziah: “Once a thornbush growing [in the mountains] in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar tree, saying, ‘Give your daughter to my son in order that he may marry her.’ But a wild animal in Lebanon passed by the thornbush and trampled it.
A Joas car Izrailjev posla k Amasiji caru Judinu i poruèi mu: trn na Livanu posla ka kedru na Livanu, i poruèi: daj svoju kæer sinu mojemu za ženu; ali naiðe zvijerje Livansko, i izgazi trn.
10 [The meaning of what I am saying is that] your army has defeated the army of Edom, so now you have become very proud. But you should be content with defeating the people of Edom, and allow your soldiers to stay at home. If you cause trouble [by fighting against] us, you will surely [RHQ] cause a disaster to happen to you and to your people.”
Pobio si Edomce, pa se ponese srce tvoje; hvali se, i sjedi kod kuæe svoje; zašto bi se zapletao u zlo da padneš i ti i Juda s tobom?
11 But Amaziah refused to heed Jehoash’s message. So he marched with his army to fight against the Israeli army at Beth-Shemesh [city] in Judah.
Ali ne posluša Amasija; i podiže se Joas car Izrailjev, i ogledaše se, on i Amasija car Judin, u Vetsemesu Judinu.
12 The Israeli army defeated the army of Judah, and all the soldiers of Judah fled and ran back home.
Ali Judu razbi Izrailj, te pobjegoše svaki k svojemu šatoru.
13 Jehoash’s army also captured King Amaziah there, and they also marched to Jerusalem and tore down the wall that was around the city, from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. That was a section that was about (200 yards/180 meters) long.
A Amasiju cara Judina, sina Joasa sina Ohozijina, uhvati Joas car Izrailjev u Vetsemesu; potom doðe u Jerusalim i obori zid Jerusalimski od vrata Jefremovijeh do vrata na uglu, èetiri stotine lakata.
14 Jehoash’s soldiers seized all the gold and silver that they found, and all the utensils that were in the temple, and all the valuable things that were in the palace, and took them to Samaria. They also took to Samaria some prisoners whom they had captured.
I uze sve zlato i srebro i sve posuðe što se naðe u domu Gospodnjem i u riznicama doma careva, i taoce, pa se vrati u Samariju.
15 [If you want to know about] all the other things that Jehoash did when he was king, including when he [and his army] fought against [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
A ostala djela Joasova, što je uèinio, i junaštva njegova, i kako je vojevao s Amasijom carem Judinijem, nije li to zapisano u dnevniku careva Izrailjevijeh?
16 Jehoash died [EUP], and he was buried in Samaria, where the other kings of Israel had been buried. Then his son Jeroboam became the king.
I poèinu Joas kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u Samariji kod careva Izrailjevijeh, a na njegovo se mjesto zacari Jerovoam sin njegov.
17 Amaziah, the king of Judah, lived for 15 more years after Jehoash, the king of Israel, died.
Amasija pak sin Joasov car Judin poživje petnaest godina po smrti Joasa sina Joahazova, cara Izrailjeva.
18 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Amaziah did, it is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
A ostala djela Amasijina nijesu li zapisana u dnevniku careva Judinijeh?
19 Some people in Jerusalem plotted against Amaziah, so he fled to Lachish [city]. But they followed him there and killed him.
I digoše bunu na nj u Jerusalimu, te pobježe u Lahis, a oni poslaše za njim u Lahis i ubiše ga ondje.
20 They took his corpse back to Jerusalem and buried it where his ancestors had been buried, in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’.
A odande ga donesoše na konjma, i bi pogreben u Jerusalimu kod otaca svojih u gradu Davidovu.
21 Then all the people of Judah appointed Amaziah’s son Uzziah, when he was 16 years old, to be their king
Tada sav narod Judin uze Azariju, kome bijaše šesnaest godina, i zacariše ga na mjesto oca njegova Amasije.
22 After his father died, Uzziah’s workers captured Elath [city], and it came under the control of Judah again.
On sazida Elat povrativ ga Judi pošto car poèinu kod otaca svojih.
23 When Amaziah had been ruling Judah for almost 15 years, Jeroboam became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 41 years.
Godine petnaeste carovanja Amasije sina Joasova nad Judom zacari se Jerovoam sin Joasov nad Izrailjem u Samariji, i carova èetrdeset i jednu godinu.
24 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did not stop committing the same kind of sins that Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, committed, sins which led the Israeli people to sin also.
I èinjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom i ne otstupi ni od jednoga grijeha Jerovoama sina Navatova kojima navede na grijeh Izrailja.
25 His soldiers conquered again some of the territory that had previously belonged to Israel, from Hamath [city] in the north to the Dead Sea in the south. That is what Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis worshiped, promised the prophet Jonah, the son of Amittai, from Gath-Hepher [town], would happen.
On povrati meðe Izrailjeve od Emata do mora uz polje, po rijeèi Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, koju reèe preko sluge svojega Jone sina Amatijina, proroka iz Gatefera.
26 That happened because Yahweh saw that [the Israelis’ enemies were causing] the Israelis [to] suffer very much. And there was absolutely no one [IDM] who would help them.
Jer Gospod vidje da je u ljutoj nevolji Izrailj, i da nema ništa ni od uhvaæenoga ni od ostavljenoga, i da nema nikoga da pomože Izrailju.
27 But Yahweh said that he would not destroy Israel completely, so he enabled King Jeroboam to rescue them.
I ne bješe rekao Gospod da zatre ime Izrailjevo pod nebom; zato ih izbavi preko Jerovoama sina Joasova.
28 [If you want to know more about] everything else that Jeroboam did, [about] his fighting courageously in battles, and [about] his [enabling the Israelis to] capture again Damascus and Hamath [cities], they are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
A ostala djela Jerovoamova, i sve što je èinio, i junaštva njegova, kako je vojevao i kako je povratio Damasak i Emat od Jude Izrailju, nije li to zapisano u dnevniku careva Izrailjevijeh?
29 Jeroboam died [EUP], [and was buried] where the other kings of Israel [were buried], and his son Zechariah became the king.
Potom poèinu Jerovoam kod otaca svojih, careva Izrailjevijeh, a na njegovo se mjesto zacari Zaharija sin njegov.
