2 Kings 14
1 After Jehoash had been ruling Israel for almost two years, Joash’s son Amaziah became the king of Judah.
Друге године царовања Јоаса, сина Јоахазовог над Израиљем, зацари се Амасија, син Јоасов над Јудом.
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.
Беше му двадесет и пет година кад поче царовати, и царова двадесет и девет година у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Јоадана, из Јерусалима.
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.
И чињаше што је право пред Господом, али не као Давид отац његов; сасвим чињаше онако како је чинио отац његов Јоас.
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].
Јер висине не бише оборене: народ још приношаше жртве и кађаше на висинама.
5 As soon as he was completely in control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
А кад се утврди царство у руци његовој, он поби слуге своје које су убиле цара, оца његовог.
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].”
Али синове тих крвника не поби, као што пише у књизи закона Мојсијевог, где је заповедио Господ говорећи: Очеви да не гину за синове нити синови за очеве, него сваки за свој грех нека гине.
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.
Он поби десет хиљада Едомаца у сланој долини, и узе Селу ратом, и прозва је Јоктеил, које оста до данас.
8 Then Amaziah sent messengers to King Jehoash of Israel, saying “Come here and let’s talk together.”
Тада посла Амасија посланике к Јоасу, сину Јоахаза сина Јујевог, цару Израиљевом, и рече: Дођи да се огледамо.
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.
А Јоас, цар Израиљев посла к Амасији цару Јудином и поручи му: Трн на Ливану посла ка кедру на Ливану, и поручи: Дај своју кћер сину мом за жену; али наиђе зверје ливанско, и изгази трн.
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.”
Побио си Едомце, па се понесе срце твоје; хвали се, и седи код куће своје; зашто би се заплитао у зло да паднеш и ти и Јуда с тобом?
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.
Али не послуша Амасија; и подиже се Јоас, цар Израиљев, и огледаше се, он и Амасија цар Јудин, у Вет-Семесу Јудином.
12 The Israeli army defeated the army of Judah, and all the soldiers of Judah fled and ran back home.
Али Јуду разби Израиљ, те побегоше сваки к свом шатору.
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.
А Амасију, цара Јудиног, сина Јоаса сина Охозијиног, ухвати Јоас цар Израиљев у Вет-Семесу; потом дође у Јерусалим и обори зид јерусалимски од врата Јефремових до врата на углу четири стотине лаката.
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.
И узе све злато и сребро и све посуђе што се нађе у дому Господњем и у ризницама дома царевог, и таоце, па се врати у Самарију.
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’.
А остала дела Јоасова, што је учинио, и јунаштва његова, и како је војевао с Амасијом царем Јудиним, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
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.
И почину Јоас код отаца својих, и би погребен у Самарији код царева Израиљевих, а на његово се место зацари Јеровоам, син његов.
17 Amaziah, the king of Judah, lived for 15 more years after Jehoash, the king of Israel, died.
Амасија пак, син Јоасов цар Јудин, поживе петнаест година по смрти Јоаса сина Јоахазовог, цара Израиљевог.
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’.
А остала дела Амасијина нису ли записана у дневнику царева Јудиних?
19 Some people in Jerusalem plotted against Amaziah, so he fled to Lachish [city]. But they followed him there and killed him.
И дигоше буну на њ у Јерусалиму, те побеже у Лахис, а они послаше за њим у Лахис и убише га онде.
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’.
А оданде га донесоше на коњима, и би погребен у Јерусалиму код отаца својих у граду Давидовом.
21 Then all the people of Judah appointed Amaziah’s son Uzziah, when he was 16 years old, to be their king
Тада сав народ Јудин узе Азарију, коме беше шеснаест година, и зацарише га на место оца његовог Амасије.
22 After his father died, Uzziah’s workers captured Elath [city], and it came under the control of Judah again.
Он сазида Елат повративши га Јуди пошто цар почину код отаца својих.
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.
Године петнаесте царовања Амасије сина Јоасовог над Јудом, зацари се Јеровоам, син Јоасов над Израиљем у Самарији, и царова четрдесет и једну годину.
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.
И чињаше што је зло пред Господом и не одступи ни од једног греха Јеровоама, сина Наватовог којима наведе на грех Израиља.
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.
Он поврати међе Израиљеве од Емата до мора уз поље, по речи Господа Бога Израиљевог, коју рече преко слуге свог Јоне сина Аматијевог, пророка из Гетефера.
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.
Јер Господ виде да је у љутој невољи Израиљ, и да нема ништа ни од ухваћеног ни од остављеног, и да нема никога да помогне Израиљу.
27 But Yahweh said that he would not destroy Israel completely, so he enabled King Jeroboam to rescue them.
И не беше рекао Господ да затре име Израиљево под небом; зато их избави преко Јеровоама, сина Јоасовог.
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’.
А остала дела Јеровоамова, и све што је чинио, и јунаштва његова, како је војевао и како је повратио Дамаск и Емат од Јуде Израиљу, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
29 Jeroboam died [EUP], [and was buried] where the other kings of Israel [were buried], and his son Zechariah became the king.
Потом почину Јеровоам код отаца својих, царева Израиљевих, а на његово се место зацари Захарија, син његов.
