2 Dnevnika 11
1 A kad doðe Rovoam u Jerusalim, sazva dom Judin i Venijaminov, sto i osamdeset tisuæa odabranijeh vojnika, da zavojšte na Izrailja da povrate carstvo Rovoamu.
When Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, one hundred eighty thousand chosen men, who were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
2 Ali doðe rijeè Gospodnja Semaji èovjeku Božijemu govoreæi:
But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 Kaži Rovoamu sinu Solomunovu caru Judinu i svijem sinovima Izrailjevijem od Jude i Venijamina, i reci:
"Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 Ovako veli Gospod: ne idite i ne bijte se s braæom svojom, vratite se svak svojoj kuæi, jer sam ja naredio tako da bude. I oni poslušaše rijeè Gospodnju i vratiše se i ne idoše na Jerovoama.
'Thus says the LORD, "You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers. Return every man to his house; for this thing is of me."'" So they listened to the word of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 I Rovoam sjede u Jerusalimu, i sazida tvrde gradove u zemlji Judinoj;
Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
6 Sazida Vitlejem i Itam i Tekuju,
He built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
7 I Vet-Sur i Sohot i Odolam,
Beth Zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
8 I Gat i Marisu i Zif,
and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9 I Adoraim i Lahis i Aziku,
and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10 I Saraju i Ejalon i Hevron, koji su u zemlji Judinoj i Venijaminovoj tvrdi gradovi.
and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
11 A kad utvrdi te gradove, namjesti u njima zapovjednike, i staje za žito i za ulje i za vino,
He fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of food, and oil and wine.
12 I u svakom gradu štitova i kopalja, i utvrdi ih jako. Tako njegov bijaše Juda i Venijamin.
He put shields and spears in every city, and made them exceeding strong. Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
13 I sveštenici i Leviti, koji bijahu po svemu Izrailju, sabraše se k njemu iz svijeh krajeva svojih.
The cohanim and the Levites who were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
14 Jer ostaviše Leviti podgraða svoja i dostojanja svoja, i otidoše u Judejsku i u Jerusalim, jer ih otjera Jerovoam i sinovi njegovi da ne vrše službe sveštenièke Gospodu.
For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the office of cohen to the LORD;
15 I postavi sebi sveštenike za visine i za ðavole i za teoce, koje naèini.
and he appointed him cohanim for the high places, and for the male goats, and for the calves which he had made.
16 A za njima iz svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh koji upraviše srce svoje da traže Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, doðoše u Jerusalim da prinesu žrtvu Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih.
After them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
17 I tako utvrdiše carstvo Judino, i ukrijepiše Rovoama sina Solomunova za tri godine, jer za te tri godine hoðahu putem Davidovijem i Solomunovijem.
So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
18 A Rovoam se oženi Maeletom kæerju Jerimota sina Davidova i Avihailom kæerju Esijava sina Jesejeva,
Rehoboam took him a wife, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, and of Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
19 Koja mu rodi sinove: Jeusa i Samariju i Zama.
and she bore him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 A poslije nje oženi se Mahom kæerju Avesalomovom, koja mu rodi Aviju i Ataja i Zivu i Selomita.
After her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
21 A ljubljaše Rovoam Mahu kæer Avesalomovu veæma od svijeh žena svojih i inoèa svojih; jer imaše osamnaest žena i šezdeset inoèa, i rodi dvadeset i osam sinova i šezdeset kæeri.
Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his secondary wives: (for he took eighteen wives, and sixty secondary wives, and became the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)
22 I Rovoam postavi Aviju sina Mašina poglavarom i knezom nad braæom njegovom, jer ga šæaše postaviti carem.
Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, the prince among his brothers; for he intended to make him king.
23 I mudro radeæi rasturi sve sinove svoje po svijem krajevima Judinijem i Venijaminovijem, po svijem tvrdijem gradovima, i dade im hrane izobila, i dovede im mnogo žena.
He dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortified city: and he gave them food in abundance. He sought for them many wives.
