2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
Amacjá je bil star petindvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval devetindvajset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Joadána iz Jeruzalema.
2 He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, but not with a whole heart.
Delal je to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, toda ne s popolnim srcem.
3 It came about that as soon as his rule was well established, he killed the servants who had murdered his father, the king.
Pripetilo se je torej, ko mu je bilo kraljestvo utrjeno, da je usmrtil svoja služabnika, ki sta ubila kralja, njegovega očeta.
4 But he did not put the children of the murderers to death, but acted according to what was written in the law, in the Book of Moses, as Yahweh had commanded, “The fathers must not die for the children, nor must the children die for the fathers. Instead, every person must die for his own sin.”
Toda njunih otrok ni usmrtil, temveč je storil, kakor je to zapisano v postavi Mojzesove knjige, kjer je Gospod zapovedal, rekoč: ›Očetje ne bodo umrli zaradi otrok niti ne bodo otroci umrli zaradi očetov, temveč bo vsak človek umrl zaradi svojega lastnega greha.‹
5 Moreover, Amaziah gathered Judah together, and registered them by their ancestors' houses, under commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—all of Judah and Benjamin. He numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them to be 300,000 chosen men, able to go to war, who could handle spear and shield.
Poleg tega je Amacjá zbral skupaj Juda in jih postavil za tisočnike in stotnike, glede na hiše njihovih očetov, po vsem Judu in Benjaminu. Preštel jih je od starosti dvajset let navzgor in jih našel tristo tisoč izbranih mož, zmožnih iti na vojno, ki so lahko zgrabili sulico in ščit.
6 He hired also 100,000 fighting men from Israel for one hundred talents of silver.
Najel je tudi sto tisoč močnih junaških mož iz Izraela za sto talentov srebra.
7 But a man of God came to him and said, “King, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for Yahweh is not with Israel—none of the people of Ephraim.
Toda tam je prišel k njemu Božji mož, rekoč: »Oh kralj, naj Izraelova vojska ne gre s teboj, kajti Gospod ni z Izraelom, namreč z vsemi Efrájimovi otroci.
8 But even if you do go and are courageous and strong in battle, God will throw you down before the enemy, for God has power to help, and power to throw down.”
Toda če ti hočeš iti, stori to, bodi močan za bitko. Bog ti bo storil, da padeš pred sovražnikom, kajti Bog ima moč, da pomaga in da podere.«
9 Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what will we do about the one hundred talents that I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “Yahweh is able to give you much more than that.”
Amacjá je rekel Božjemu možu: »Toda kaj naj storimo zaradi stotih talentov, ki sem jih dal Izraelovi vojski?« Božji mož je odgovoril: » Gospod ti je zmožen dati veliko več kakor to.«
10 So Amaziah separated the army that had come to him from Ephraim; he sent them home again. So their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
Potem jih je Amacjá ločil, namreč vojsko, ki je prišla k njemu iz Efrájima, da gre ponovno domov. Zato je bila njihova jeza silno vžgana zoper Juda in domov so se vrnili v veliki jezi.
11 Amaziah took courage and led his people to go out to the Valley of Salt; there he defeated ten thousand men of Seir.
Amacjá se je okrepil in vodil svoje ljudstvo in odšel v solno dolino in jih izmed Seírovih otrok pobil deset tisoč.
12 The army of Judah carried away alive another ten thousand. They took them to the top of the cliff and threw them down from there, so that they were all broken in pieces.
Drugih deset tisoč pa so Judovi otroci pustili žive, jih odvedli ujete in jih privedli na vrh skale ter jih vrgli dol iz vrha skale, da so bili razbiti na koščke.
13 But the men of the army which Amaziah sent back, so that they should not go with him to battle, attacked the cities of Judah from Samaria to Beth Horon. They struck down three thousand of the people and took much plunder.
Toda vojaki vojske, ki jih je Amacjá poslal nazaj, da ne bi šli z njim na bitko, so vpadli na Judova mesta od Samarije celo do Bet Horóna in pobili tri tisoč izmed njih in zajeli veliko plena.
14 Now it came about, after that Amaziah had returned from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, and set them up to be his own gods. He bowed down before them and burned incense to them.
Pripetilo se je torej, potem ko je Amacjá prišel od pokola Edómcev, da je prinesel bogove Seírjevih otrok in jih postavil, da bodo njegovi bogovi, se priklanjal pred njimi in jim zažigal kadilo.
15 So Yahweh's anger was kindled against Amaziah. He sent a prophet to him, who said, “Why have you sought after the gods of a people who did not even save their own people from your hand?”
Zato je bila Gospodova jeza vžgana zoper Amacjá in mu je poslal preroka, ki mu je rekel: »Zakaj si iskal za bogovi ljudstva, ki niso mogli rešiti svoje lastno ljudstvo iz tvoje roke?«
16 It came about that as the prophet was speaking with him, the king said to him, “Have we made you an advisor to the king? Stop! Why should you be killed?” Then the prophet stopped and said, “I know that God has decided to destroy you because you have done this deed and have not listened to my advice.”
Pripetilo se je, ko je govoril z njim, da mu je kralj rekel: »Mar si postavljen za kraljevega svetovalca? Odnehaj. Zakaj bi bil udarjen?« Potem je prerok odnehal in rekel: »Vem, da je Bog določil, da te uniči, ker si to storil in nisi prisluhnil mojemu nasvetu.«
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah consulted with advisors and sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us meet each other face to face in battle.”
Potem je Judov kralj Amacjá sprejel nasvet in poslal k Jehoášu, Joaházovemu sinu, Jehújevemu sinu, Izraelovemu kralju, rekoč: »Pridi, poglejva drug drugemu v obraz.«
18 But Jehoash the king of Israel sent messengers back to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “A thistle that was in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son for a wife,' but a wild beast in Lebanon walked by and trampled down the thistle.
Izraelov kralj Jehoáš pa je poslal k Judovemu kralju Amacjáju, rekoč: »Osat, ki je bil na Libanonu, je poslal k cedri, ki je bila na Libanonu, rekoč: ›Daj svojo hčer mojemu sinu za ženo.‹ In tam mimo je šla divja zver, ki je bila na Libanonu in pomendrala osat.
19 You have said, 'See, I have struck down Edom,' and your heart has lifted you up. Take pride in your victory, but stay at home, for why should you cause yourself trouble and fall, both you and Judah with you?”
Ti praviš: ›Glej, udaril si Edómce in tvoje srce te je povzdignilo do bahanja. Ostani torej doma, zakaj bi se vmešaval v svojo bolečino, da bi padel, celó ti in Juda s teboj?‹«
20 But Amaziah would not listen, because this event was from God, so he might put the people of Judah into the hand of their enemies, because they had sought advice from the gods of Edom.
Toda Amacjá ni hotel slišati, kajti to je prišlo od Boga, da bi jih on lahko izročil v roko njihovih sovražnikov, ker so iskali za edómskimi bogovi.
21 So Jehoash, king of Israel, attacked; he and Amaziah, king of Judah, met each other face to face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
Tako je Izraelov kralj Jehoáš odšel gor in videla sta drug drugega v obraz, tako on in Judov kralj Amacjá, pri Bet Šemešu, ki pripada Judu.
22 Judah was struck down before Israel, and every man fled home.
Juda je bil na slabšem pred Izraelom in pobegnili so vsak mož k svojemu šotoru.
23 Jehoash, king of Israel, captured Amaziah son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, at Beth Shemesh. He brought him to Jerusalem and tore down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits in distance.
Izraelov kralj Jehoáš je prijel Judovega kralja Amacjá, Joáševega sina, Joaházovega sina pri Bet Šemešu in ga privedel v Jeruzalem in porušil jeruzalemsko obzidje od Efrájimovih velikih vrat do vogalnih velikih vrat, štiristo komolcev.
24 He took all the gold and silver, all the objects that were found in the house of God with Obed Edom, and the valuable things in the king's house, with hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
Vzel je vse zlato, srebro in vse posode, ki so bile najdene v Božji hiši z Obéd Edómom in zaklade kraljeve hiše, tudi talce in se vrnil v Samarijo.
25 Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
Joášev sin Amacjá, kralj Juda, je po smrti Izraelovega kralja, Joaházovega sina Jehoáša, živel petnajst let.
26 As for the other matters concerning Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
Torej preostala izmed Amacjájevih dejanj, prva in zadnja, glej, mar niso zapisana v knjigi Judovih in Izraelovih kraljev?
27 Now from the time that Amaziah turned away from following Yahweh, they began to make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem. He fled to Lachish, but they sent men after him to Lachish and killed him there.
Torej po času, ko se je Amacjá odvrnil od sledenja Gospodu, so v Jeruzalemu zoper njega skovali zaroto; on pa je pobegnil v Lahíš. Toda poslali so za njim v Lahíš in ga tam usmrtili.
28 They brought him back on horses and buried him with his ancestors in the city of Judah.
Pripeljali so ga na konjih in ga pokopali z njegovimi očeti v Judovem mestu.
