2 Dnevnika 12
1 A kad Rovoam utvrdi carstvo i kad osili, ostavi zakon Gospodnji i sav Izrailj s njim.
And it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of Yahweh, —and all Israel with him.
2 A pete godine carovanja Rovoamova doðe Sisak car Misirski na Jerusalim, jer zgriješiše Gospodu,
And so it came to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, —because they had dealt treacherously against Yahweh; —
3 S tisuæu i dvije stotine kola i sa šezdeset tisuæa konjika, i ne bješe broja narodu koji doðe s njim iz Misira, Luvejima, Suhejima i Husejima.
with twelve hundred chariots, and with sixty thousand horsemen, -and, without number, the people who came with him out of Egypt—Lybians, Sukkiim, and Ethiopians.
4 I uze tvrde gradove Judine i doðe do Jerusalima.
And he captured the cities of defence which belonged to Judah, —and came, as far as Jerusalem.
5 Tada doðe Semaja prorok k Rovoamu i knezovima Judinijem, koji se bijahu skupili u Jerusalim od Sisaka, i reèe im: ovako veli Gospod: vi ostaviste mene, zato i ja ostavljam vas u ruke Sisaku.
And, Shemaiah the prophet, came unto Rehoboam, and the rulers of Judah, who had gathered themselves together unto Jerusalem because of Shishak, —and said unto them, Thus, saith Yahweh, Ye, have left, me, Therefore, I also, have left, you, in the hands of Shishak.
6 Tada se poniziše knezovi Izrailjevi i car i rekoše: pravedan je Gospod.
Then the rulers of Israel and the king humbled themselves, —and said, Righteous, is Yahweh!
7 A kad ih vidje Gospod gdje se poniziše, doðe rijeè Gospodnja Semaji govoreæi: poniziše se, neæu ih potrti, nego æu im sada dati izbavljenje, i neæe se izliti jarost moja na Jerusalim preko Sisaka.
And, when Yahweh saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Yahweh came unto Shemaiah, saying—They have humbled themselves, I will not destroy them, —but will grant them, in a little while, to escape, and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem, by the hand of Shishak.
8 Nego æe mu biti sluge da poznadu šta je meni služiti, šta li služiti carstvima zemaljskim.
Nevertheless they shall become his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9 I tako doðe Sisak car Misirski u Jerusalim i uze blago doma Gospodnjega i blago doma careva, sve to uze; uze i štitove zlatne, koje bješe naèinio Solomun;
So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the house of the king, the whole, he took, —and he took the bucklers of gold, which Solomon had made.
10 I na njihovo mjesto naèini car Rovoam štitove od mjedi, i predade ih starješinama nad stražarima koji èuvahu vrata doma careva.
And King Rehoboam made, instead of them, bucklers of bronze, —and committed them unto the hand of the captains of the runners, who kept guard at the entrance of the house of the king.
11 I kad iðaše car u dom Gospodnji dolažahu stražari i nošahu ih, a poslije ih opet ostavljahu u riznicu stražarsku.
And so it was, whensoever the king came into the house of Yahweh, the runners came and bare them, and then returned them into the chamber of the runners.
12 Što se dakle ponizi, odvrati se od njega gnjev Gospodnji, i ne zatr ga sasvijem; jer još u Judi bješe dobra.
But, when he humbled himself, then turned from him the anger of Yahweh, that he would not destroy, to make an end, —moreover also, in Judah, there were some good things.
13 I utvrdi se car Rovoam u Jerusalimu, i carova; jer bijaše Rovoamu èetrdeset i jedna godina kad se zacari, i sedamnaest godina carova u Jerusalimu gradu, koji izabra Gospod izmeðu svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh da ondje namjesti ime svoje. A materi njegovoj bješe ime Nama, Amonka.
So King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned, —because, forty-one years old, was Rehoboam when he began to reign, and, seventeen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, the city which Yahweh had chosen, to set his Name there—from among all the tribes of Israel, and, the name of his mother, was Naamah, the Ammonitess.
14 Ali on èinjaše zlo, jer ne upravi srca svojega da traži Gospoda.
But he did evil, —in that he did not fix his heart to seek Yahweh.
15 Ali djela Rovoamova prva i pošljednja nijesu li zapisana u knjizi proroka Semaje i vidioca Ida, gdje se kazuju koljena a i ratovi koji bijahu jednako meðu Rovoamom i Jerovoamom?
Now, the story of Rehoboam, first and last, is it not written in the story of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer, for enrolling, -also the wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam, all the days?
16 I poèinu Rovoam kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u gradu Davidovu; a na njegovo se mjesto zacari Avija sin njegov.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David, —and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
