2 Dnevnika 24
1 Bijaše Joasu sedam godina kad se zacari, i carova èetrdeset godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Sivija iz Virsaveje.
Joash was seven years old when he began to reign; and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
2 I èinjaše Joas što je pravo pred Gospodom dokle god bijaše živ Jodaj sveštenik.
Joash did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days of Jehoiada the cohen.
3 I Jodaj ga oženi dvjema ženama, te rodi sinove i kæeri.
Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he became the father of sons and daughters.
4 Potom Joas naumi da opravi dom Gospodnji.
It happened after this, that Joash intended to restore the house of the LORD.
5 I sazva sveštenike i Levite, pa im reèe: poðite po gradovima Judinijem i kupite od svega Izrailja novaca da se opravlja dom Boga vašega od godine do godine, i vi pohitajte s tijem. Ali ne hitješe Leviti.
He gathered together the cohanim and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter." However the Levites did not do it right away.
6 Zato car dozva Jodaja poglavara i reèe mu: zašto ne nastojiš da Leviti donose iz Judeje i Jerusalima priloge koje je naredio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji zboru Izrailjevu na šator od sastanka?
The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, "Why haven't you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the tent of the testimony?"
7 Jer bezbožna Gotolija i sinovi njezini oplijeniše dom Gospodnji i sve stvari posveæene domu Gospodnjemu obratiše na Vale.
For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God's house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the house of the LORD to the Baals.
8 I tako zapovjedi car te naèiniše kovèeg, i metnuše ga na vrata doma Gospodnjega spolja.
So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the house of the LORD.
9 I oglasiše po Judeji i po Jerusalimu da donose Gospodu prilog koji je naredio Mojsije sluga Božji Izrailju u pustinji.
They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
10 I obradovaše se knezovi i sav narod, i donoseæi metahu u kovèeg dokle se ne svrši.
And all the leaders and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and threw it into the chest, until it was full.
11 I kad donošahu Leviti kovèeg po zapovijesti carevoj, vidjevši da ima mnogo novaca, dolažaše pisar carev i poslanik poglavara sveštenièkoga, te izruèivahu kovèeg, potom ga opet odnošahu i ostavljahu na njegovo mjesto; i tako èinjahu svaki dan, i nakupiše mnogo novaca.
It was so, that whenever the chest was brought to the king's officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the chief cohen's official came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
12 I davaše ga car Jodaj nastojnicima nad poslom oko doma Gospodnjega, a oni naimahu kamenare i drvodjelje da se obnovi dom Gospodnji, i kovaèe koji rade od gvožða i od mjedi, da se opravi dom Gospodnji.
The king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of the LORD; and they hired masons and carpenters to restore the house of the LORD, and also such as worked iron and bronze to repair the house of the LORD.
13 I poslovahu poslenici, i opravljanje napredovaše pod njihovijem rukama, te povratiše domu Božijemu oblièje njegovo, i utvrdiše ga.
So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands, and they set up God's house in its state, and strengthened it.
14 A kad svršiše, donesoše pred cara i Jodaja novce što pretekoše; i od toga naèini sudove za dom Gospodnji, sudove za službu i za žrtve, i kadionice, i druge sudove zlatne i srebrne. I tako prinošahu žrtve paljenice u domu Gospodnjem jednako svega vijeka Jodajeva.
When they had made an end, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, of which were made vessels for the house of the LORD, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.
15 Potom ostarjevši Jodaj sit života umrije; sto i trideset godina bješe mu kad umrije.
But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; one hundred thirty years old was he when he died.
16 I pogreboše ga u gradu Davidovu kod careva; jer èinjaše dobro Izrailju i Bogu i domu njegovu.
They buried him in the City of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
17 A kad umrije Jodaj, doðoše knezovi Judini i pokloniše se caru; tada ih posluša car,
Now after the death of Jehoiada the leaders of Judah came and paid homage to the king. And the king listened to them.
18 Te ostaviše dom Gospoda Boga otaca svojih, i stadoše služiti lugovima i idolima; i podiže se gnjev Gospodnji na Judu i na Jerusalim za taj grijeh njihov.
They forsook the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherim and the idols: and wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
19 I slaše im proroke da ih vrate ka Gospodu, i oni im svedoèahu, ali ih ne poslušaše.
Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again to the LORD; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.
20 I doðe duh Gospodnji na Zahariju sina Jodaja sveštenika, te stade više naroda i reèe im: ovako veli Bog: zašto prestupate zapovijesti Gospodnje? neæete biti sreæni; što ostaviste Gospoda, zato i on vas ostavi.
The Ruach of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the cohen; and he stood above the people, and said to them, "Thus says God, 'Why do you disobey the commandments of the LORD, so that you can't prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.'"
21 A oni se pobuniše na nj, i zasuše ga kamenjem po zapovijesti carevoj u trijemu doma Gospodnjega.
They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the LORD.
22 I ne opomenu se Joas milosti koju mu uèini Jodaj otac njegov, nego ubi sina njegova; a on umiruæi reèe: Gospod neka vidi i traži.
Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, "May the LORD look at it, and repay it."
23 A kad proðe godina, podiže se na nj vojska Sirska i uðe u zemlju Judejsku i u Jerusalim, i pobiše po narodu sve knezove narodne, i sav plijen od njih poslaše caru u Damasak.
It happened at the end of the year, that the army of the Arameans came up against him. And they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king in Damascus.
24 Ako i mala bješe vojska Sirska koja doðe, ipak Gospod dade u ruke njihove vrlo veliku vojsku, jer bjehu ostavili Gospoda Boga otaca svojih. I tako na Joasu izvršiše sud.
For the army of the Arameans came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.
25 A kad otidoše od njega ostavivši ga u teškoj bolesti, pobuniše se na nj sluge njegove za krv sinova Jodaja sveštenika, i ubiše ga na postelji njegovoj, te pogibe; i pogreboše ga u gradu Davidovu, ali ga ne pogreboše u grobovima carskim.
When they were departed for him (for they left him very sick), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the son of Jehoiada the cohen, and killed him on his bed, and he died; and they buried him in the City of David, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
26 A ovo su što se pobuniše na nj: Zavad sin Simeate Amonke i Jozavad sin Simrite Moavke.
These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
27 A o sinovima njegovijem i o velikoj porezi što bi pod njim, i o graðenju doma Božijega, eto zapisano je u knjizi o carevima. A zacari se na njegovo mjesto Amasija sin njegov.
Now concerning his sons, and the many oracles against him, and the rebuilding of God's house, look, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
