2 Dnevnika 21
1 Potom poèinu Josafat kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben kod otaca svojih u gradu Davidovu; a na njegovo se mjesto zacari Joram sin njegov.
And Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.
2 A braæa mu, sinovi Josafatovi, bijahu: Azarija i Jehilo i Zaharija i Azarija i Mihailo i Sefatija; ti svi bijahu sinovi Josafata cara Izrailjeva.
And he had brethren the sons of Josaphat, Azarias, and Jahiel, and Zacharias, and Azaria, and Michael, and Saphatias, all these were the sons of Josaphat king of Juda.
3 I otac im dade velike darove, srebra i zlata i zaklada s tvrdijem gradovima u zemlji Judinoj; carstvo pak dade Joramu, jer bješe prvenac.
And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and pensions, with strong cities in Juda: but the kingdom he gave to Joram, because he was the eldest.
4 A Joram stupiv na carstvo oca svojega i utvrdiv se, pobi svu braæu svoju maèem i neke knezove Izrailjeve.
So Joram rose up over the kingdom of his father: and when he had established himself, he slew all his brethren with the sword, and some of the princes of Israel.
5 Imaše Joram trideset i dvije godine kad se zacari, i carova osam godina u Jerusalimu.
Joram was two and thirty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 I hoðaše putem careva Izrailjevijeh, kao što èinjaše dom Ahavov, jer se oženi kæerju Ahavovom; i èinjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom.
And he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had done: for his wife was a daughter of Achab, and he did evil in the sight of the Lord.
7 Ali Gospod ne htje zatrti doma Davidova radi zavjeta koji uèini s Davidom i što mu bješe rekao da æe dati vidjelo njemu i sinovima njegovijem uvijek.
But the Lord would not destroy the house of David: because of the covenant which he had made with him: and because he had promised to give a lamp to him, and to his sons for ever.
8 Za njegova vremena odvrže se Edom da ne bude pod Judom, i postaviše sebi cara.
In those days Edom revolted, from being subject to Juda, and made themselves a king.
9 Zato otide Joram s vojvodama svojim i sa svijem kolima svojim; i usta noæu, te pobi Edomce koji ga bijahu opkolili, i zapovjednike od kola.
And Joram went over with his princes, and all his cavalry with him, and rose in the night, and defeated the Edomites who had surrounded him, and all the captains of his cavalry.
10 Ipak se odvrgoše Edomci da ne budu pod Judom do danas. U isto vrijeme odvrže se i Livna da ne bude pod njim, jer ostavi Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.
However Edom revolted, from being under the dominion of Juda unto this day: at that time Lobna also revolted, from being under his hand. For he had forsaken the Lord the God of his fathers:
11 Još i visine naèini po brdima Judinijem, i navede na preljubu Jerusalimljane i prelasti Judu.
Moreover he built also high places in the cities of Juda, and he made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and Juda to transgress.
12 Tada mu doðe knjiga od Ilije proroka, gdje mu govoraše: ovako veli Gospod Bog Davida oca tvojega: što nijesi hodio putovima Josafata oca svojega i putovima Ase cara Judina,
And there was a letter brought him from Elias the prophet, in which it was written: Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father: Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Josaphat thy father nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda,
13 Nego si hodio putem careva Izrailjevijeh i naveo si na preljubu Judu i Jerusalimljane, kao što je dom Ahavov naveo na preljubu Izrailja, i još si pobio braæu svoju, dom oca svojega, bolje od sebe,
But hast walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and hast made Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, imitating the fornication of the house of Achab, moreover also thou hast killed thy brethren, the house of thy father, better men than thyself,
14 Evo, Gospod æe udariti velikim zlom narod tvoj i sinove tvoje i žene tvoje i sve što imaš.
Behold the Lord will strike thee with a great plague, with all thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy substance.
15 I ti æeš bolovati teško, od bolesti u crijevima, da æe ti crijeva izaæi od bolesti, koja æe trajati dvije godine.
And thou shalt be sick of a very grievous disease of thy bowels, till thy vital parts come out by little and little every day.
16 I tako podiže Gospod na Jorama duh Filistejima i Arapima koji žive od Etiopljana.
And the Lord stirred up against Joram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who border on the Ethiopians.
17 I oni došavši na zemlju Judinu prodriješe u nju, i odnesoše sve blago što se naðe u domu carevu, i sinove njegove i žene njegove, da mu ne osta nijedan sin osim Joahaza najmlaðega sina njegova.
And they came up into the land of Juda, and wasted it, and they carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, his sons also, and his wives: so that there was no son left him but Joachaz, who was the youngest.
18 I poslije svega toga udari ga Gospod bolešæu u crijevima, kojoj ne bješe lijeka.
And besides all this the Lord struck him with an incurable disease in his bowels.
19 I dan po dan prolažaše, i kad se navršiše dvije godine, izidoše mu crijeva s bolešæu i umrije od teških bolova, i narod mu ne pali mirisa kao što je èinio ocima njegovijem.
And as day came after day, and time rolled on, two whole years passed: then after being wasted with a long consumption, so as to void his very bowels, his disease ended with his life. And he died of a most wretched illness, and the people did not make a funeral for him according to the manner of burning, as they had done for his ancestors.
20 Imaše trideset i dvije godine kad poèe carovati, i carova osam godina u Jerusalimu, i preminu da niko ne zažali za njim; i pogreboše ga u gradu Davidovu, ali ne u grobu carskom.
He was two and thirty years old when he began his reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he walked not rightly, and they buried him in the city of David: but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
