< 2 Chronicles 21 >
1 Jehoshaphat slept with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of David; Jehoram, his son, became king in his place.
Torej Józafat je zaspal s svojimi očeti in bil s svojimi očeti pokopan v Davidovem mestu. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Jehorám.
2 Jehoram had brothers, sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariahu, Michael, and Shephatiah. All these were sons of Jehoshaphat, king of Israel.
Ta je imel brate, Józafatove sinove: Azarjája, Jehiéla, Zeharjája, Azarjája, Mihaela in Šefatjája. Vsi ti so bili sinovi Izraelovega kralja Józafata.
3 Their father had given them large gifts of silver, gold, and other precious things, and also fortified cities in Judah, but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram.
Njihov oče jim je dal veliko daril iz srebra in iz zlata in dragocenih stvari, z utrjenimi mesti v Judu, toda kraljestvo je dal Jehorámu, ker je bil prvorojenec.
4 Now when Jehoram had risen up over his father's kingdom and had firmly established himself as king, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and also various other leaders of Israel.
Torej ko je bil Jehorám dvignjen h kraljestvu svojega očeta, se je okrepil in vse svoje brate usmrtil z mečem in tudi številne izmed Izraelovih princev.
5 Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned for eight years in Jerusalem.
Jehorám je bil star dvaintrideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval osem let.
6 He walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab was doing, for he had Ahab's daughter as his wife, and he did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh.
Hodil je po poti Izraelovih kraljev, podobno kakor je storila Ahábova hiša, kajti za ženo je imel Ahábovo hčer. Počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh.
7 However, Yahweh did not wish to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David; he had promised that he would always give life to him and his descendants.
Vendar Gospod ni hotel uničiti Davidove hiše zaradi zaveze, ki jo je sklenil z Davidom in kakor je obljubil, da da luč njemu in njegovim sinovom na veke.
8 In Jehoram's days, Edom revolted from the control of Judah, and they set a king over themselves.
V njegovih dneh so se Edómci spuntali izpod Judovega gospostva in si postavili kralja.
9 Then Jehoram crossed over with his commanders and all his chariots. It was night when he rose up and fought against the Edomites who had surrounded him and his chariot commanders.
Potem je Jehorám s svojimi princi odšel naprej in vsi njegovi bojni vozovi z njim. Ponoči je vstal in udaril Edomce, ki so obkolili njega in stotnike bojnih vozov.
10 So Edom has been in rebellion from the control of Judah to this present day. Libnah also revolted at the same time from his control, because Jehoram had forsaken Yahweh, the God of his ancestors.
Tako so se Edómci spuntali izpod Judove roke do današnjega dne. Isti čas se je tudi Libna spuntala izpod njegove roke, ker je zapustil Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
11 In addition, Jehoram had also built high places in the mountains of Judah and he made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to live like prostitutes, and he led Judah astray.
Poleg tega je postavil visoke kraje po Judovih gorah in prebivalcem Jeruzalema storil, da zagrešijo prešuštvovanje in k temu zapeljal Juda.
12 A letter from the prophet Elijah came to Jehoram. It said, “This is what Yahweh, the God of David, your ancestor, says: Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat, your father, nor in the ways of Asa, king of Judah,
In k njemu je prišlo pisanje preroka Elija, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod, Bog tvojega očeta Davida: ›Ker nisi hodil po poteh svojega očeta Józafata niti po poteh Judovega kralja Asája,
13 but have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to act like a prostitute, as the house of Ahab did—and because you have also killed your brothers in your father's family, men who were better than yourself—
temveč si hodil po poti Izraelovih kraljev in si pripravil Juda in prebivalce Jeruzalema, da se vlačugajo, podobno vlačugarstvom Ahábove hiše in si tudi umoril svoje brate od hiše svojega očeta, ki so bili boljši kakor ti sam.
14 see, Yahweh will strike with a great plague your people, your children, your wives, and all your possessions.
Glej, z veliko nadlogo bo Gospod udaril tvoje ljudstvo, tvoje otroke, tvoje žene in vse tvoje dobrine,
15 You yourself will have much sickness because of a disease in your intestines, until your intestines fall out because of the sickness, day after day.”
ti pa boš imel veliko slabost z boleznijo svoje notranjosti, dokler tvoja notranjost ne zleze ven zaradi razloga bolezni dan za dnem.«
16 Yahweh stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and of the Arabians who were near the Cushites.
Poleg tega je Gospod zoper Jehoráma razvnel duha Filistejcev in Arabcev, ki so bili blizu Etiopijcev.
17 They attacked Judah, invaded it, and carried away all the wealth that was found in the king's house. They also carried away his sons and his wives. No son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest son.
Ti so prišli gor v Juda in vdrli vanj in odnesli vse imetje, ki je bilo najdeno v kraljevi hiši in tudi njegove sinove in njegove žene, tako da mu ni ostal sin razen Joaháza, najmlajšega izmed njegovih sinov.
18 After all this, Yahweh struck him in his intestines with an incurable disease.
Po vsem tem ga je Gospod udaril v njegovi notranjosti z neozdravljivo boleznijo.
19 It came about in due time, at the end of two years, that his intestines fell out because of his sickness, and that he died of severe disease. His people made no fire in his honor as they had done for his ancestors.
Pripetilo se je tekom časa, po koncu dveh let, da je njegova notranjost zlezla ven zaradi razloga njegove slabosti. Tako je umrl od hudih bolezni. Njegovo ljudstvo zanj ni naredilo nobenega sežiga [dišav], podobnega sežigu njegovim očetom.
20 He had begun to reign when he was thirty-two years old; he reigned in Jerusalem for eight years, and when he departed no one mourned him. They buried him in the city of David, but not in the royal tombs.
Dvaintrideset let je bil star, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval osem let in odšel, brez da bi ga želeli. Vendar so ga pokopali v Davidovem mestu, toda ne v kraljevih mavzolejih.
