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.
Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram 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 Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these [were] the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
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 of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he [was] the firstborn.
4 A Joram stupiv na carstvo oca svojega i utvrdiv se, pobi svu braæu svoju maèem i neke knezove Izrailjeve.
Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and [divers] also of the princes of Israel.
5 Imaše Joram trideset i dvije godine kad se zacari, i carova osam godina u Jerusalimu.
Jehoram [was] thirty and two 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 way of the kings of Israel, like as did the house of Ahab: for he had the daughter of Ahab to wife: and he wrought [that which was] evil in the eyes 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.
Howbeit the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a light 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 his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, 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.
Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.
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.
So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time [also] did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.
11 Još i visine naèini po brdima Judinijem, i navede na preljubu Jerusalimljane i prelasti Judu.
Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah [thereto].
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 came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
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 way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father’s house, [which were] better than thyself:
14 Evo, Gospod æe udariti velikim zlom narod tvoj i sinove tvoje i žene tvoje i sve što imaš.
Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods:
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 have] great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day.
16 I tako podiže Gospod na Jorama duh Filistejima i Arapima koji žive od Etiopljana.
Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that [were] near 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 Judah, and brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 I poslije svega toga udari ga Gospod bolešæu u crijevima, kojoj ne bješe lijeka.
And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
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 it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
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.
Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
