2 Dnevnika 25
1 Bijaše Amasiji dvadeset i pet godina kad poèe carovati, i carova dvadeset i devet godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Joadana iz Jerusalima.
AMAZIAH was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
2 On èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom, ali ne cijelijem srcem.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a perfect heart.
3 I kad se utvrdi u carstvu, pobi sluge svoje koji ubiše cara oca njegova.
Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established to him, that he slew his servants that had killed the king his father.
4 Ali sinova njihovijeh ne pogubi, nego uèini kako piše u zakonu, u knjizi Mojsijevoj, gdje je zapovjedio Gospod govoreæi: ocevi da ne ginu za sinove, ni sinovi za oceve, nego svaki za svoj grijeh neka gine.
But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where the Lord commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
5 Iza toga skupi Amasija narod Judin, i postavi po domovima otaèkim tisuænike i stotinike po svoj zemlji Judinoj i Venijaminovoj, i izbroji ih od dvadeset godina i više, i naðe ih trista tisuæa vojnika izabranijeh, koji nošahu koplje i štit.
Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and made them captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, according to the houses of their fathers, throughout all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.
6 I jošte najmi izmeðu Izrailjaca sto tisuæa hrabrijeh ljudi za sto talanata srebra.
He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.
7 Ali doðe mu èovjek Božji i reèe: care, da ne ide s tobom vojska Izrailjska, jer Gospod nije s Izrailjcima niti sa sinovima Jefremovijem.
But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the Lord is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim.
8 Nego idi ti, i budi hrabar u boju; inaèe æe te oboriti Bog pred neprijateljem, jer Bog može i pomoæi i oboriti.
But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.
9 Tada reèe Amasija èovjeku Božijemu: a šta æe biti od sto talanata što sam dao vojsci Izrailjevoj? A èovjek Božji reèe: ima Gospod da ti da više od toga.
And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The Lord is able to give thee much more than this.
10 I tako odvoji Amasija vojsku što mu bješe došla od Jefrema da otidu u svoje mjesto; a oni se vrlo rasrdiše na Judu, i vratiše se u svoje mjesto s velikim gnjevom.
Then Amaziah separated them, to wit, the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.
11 A Amasija oslobodivši se povede narod svoj i otide u slanu dolinu, i pobi deset tisuæa sinova Sirovijeh;
And Amaziah strengthened himself, and led forth his people, and went to the valley of salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand.
12 I deset tisuæa živijeh zarobiše Judejci, i odvedoše na vrh stijene, i pobacaše ih sa vrh stijene da se svi raspadoše.
And other ten thousand left alive did the children of Judah carry away captive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.
13 A vojnici koje Amasija posla natrag da ne idu s njim u boj, navališe na gradove Judine od Samarije do Vet-Orona, i pobiše po njima tri tisuæe, i zaplijeniše velik plijen.
But the soldiers of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-horon, and smote three thousand of them, and took much spoil.
14 A kad se vrati Amasija razbivši Idumeje, donese bogove sinova Sirovijeh, i postavi ih sebi za bogove, i klanjaše im se i kaðaše im.
Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.
15 Tada se razgnjevi Gospod na Amasiju, i posla k njemu proroka, koji mu reèe: zašto tražiš bogove toga naroda, koji ne izbaviše svojega naroda iz tvoje ruke?
Wherefore the anger of the Lord was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which could not deliver their own people out of thine hand?
16 I kad govoraše caru, on mu reèe: jesi li postavljen caru za savjetnika? prestani; zašto da pogineš? I tako presta prorok, ali reèe: znam da te je Bog naumio istrijebiti kad to radiš a ne slušaš svjeta mojega.
And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that the king said unto him, Art thou made of the king’s counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
17 Tada smisli Amasija car Judin, i posla k Joasu sinu Joahaza sina Jujeva, caru Izrailjevu, i poruèi: hodi da se ogledamo.
Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us see one another in the face.
18 A Joas car Izrailjev posla k Amasiji caru Judinu i poruèi mu: trn na Livanu posla ka kedru na Livanu, i poruèi: daj svoju kæer sinu mojemu za ženu. Ali naiðe zvijerje Livansko i izgazi trn.
And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.
19 Veliš, pobio si Edomce, pa se ponese srce tvoje, i tražiš slave; sjedi kod kuæe svoje; zašto bi se zapletao u zlo da padneš i ti i Juda s tobom?
Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten the Edomites; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to thine hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?
20 Ali ne posluša Amasija, jer od Gospoda to bi da ih da u ruke neprijatelju, što tražiše bogove Edomske.
But Amaziah would not hear; for it came of God, that he might deliver them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought after the gods of Edom.
21 I otide Joas car Izrailjev, i ogledaše se, on i Amasija car Judin, u Vet-Semesu Judinu.
So Joash the king of Israel went up; and they saw one another in the face, both he and Amaziah king of Judah, at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
22 Ali Judu razbi Izrailj, te pobjegoše svaki ka svojemu šatoru.
And Judah was put to the worse before Israel, and they fled every man to his tent.
23 A Amasiju cara Judina sina Joasa sina Joahazova uhvati Joas car Izrailjev u Vet-Semesu, i odvede ga u Jerusalim; i obori zid Jerusalimski od vrata Jefremovijeh do vrata na uglu, èetiri stotine lakata.
And Joash the king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim to the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
24 I uze sve zlato i srebro i sve posuðe što se naðe u domu Božijem u Ovid-Edoma i u riznici doma carskoga, i taoce, pa se vrati u Samariju.
And he took all the gold and the silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
25 I poživje Amasija sin Joasov car Judin po smrti Joasa sina Joahaza cara Izrailjeva petnaest godina.
And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
26 A ostala djela Amasijina prva i pošljednja, eto nijesu li zapisana u knjizi o carevima Judinijem i Izrailjevijem?
Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
27 I pošto Amasija otstupi od Gospoda, digoše bunu na nj u Jerusalimu, a on pobježe u Lahis. Ali poslaše za njim u Lahis, i ubiše ga ondje.
Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the Lord they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.
28 I donesoše ga na konjma i pogreboše ga kod otaca njegovijeh u gradu Judinu.
And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
