2 Dnevnika 28
1 Dvadeset godina bijaše Ahazu kad poèe carovati, i carova šesnaest godina u Jerusalimu; ali ne èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom kao David otac njegov.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what is right in the sight of the Lord, as his father David did.
2 Jer hoðaše putovima careva Izrailjevijeh, i još sali likove Valima.
Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he also cast statues for the Baals.
3 I sam kaðaše u dolini sina Enomova, i sažizaše sinove svoje ognjem po gadnijem djelima onijeh naroda koje odagna Gospod ispred sinova Izrailjevijeh.
It is he who burned incense in the Valley of the son of Hinnom. And he purified his sons by fire, in accord with the ritual of the nations that the Lord put to death at the advent of the sons of Israel.
4 I prinošaše žrtve i kaðaše na visinama i po brdima i pod svakim zelenijem drvetom.
Also, he was sacrificing and burning incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
5 Zato ga dade Gospod Bog njegov u ruke caru Sirskomu, te ga razbiše i zarobiše mu veliko mnoštvo, i odvedoše ih u Damasak. Još bi dat u ruke i caru Izrailjevu, te ga razbi ljuto.
And so the Lord, his God, delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria, who struck him and took great plunder from his kingdom. And he carried it away to Damascus. Also, he was delivered into the hands of the king of Israel, and he struck him with great affliction.
6 Jer Fekaj sin Remalijin pobi sto i dvadeset tisuæa Judejaca u jedan dan, sve hrabrijeh ljudi, jer ostaviše Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.
And Pekah, the son of Remaliah, killed, on one day, one hundred twenty thousand, all of them men of war from Judah, because they had forsaken the Lord, the God of their fathers.
7 I Zihrije junak od Jefrema ubi Masiju sina careva i Azrikama upravitelja dvorskoga i Elkanu drugoga do cara.
In the same time, Zichri, a powerful man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah, the son of the king, and Azrikam, the governor of his house, and also Elkanah, who was second to the king.
8 I zarobiše sinovi Izrailjevi braæi svojoj dvjesta tisuæa žena i sinova i kæeri; i zaplijeniše velik plijen od njih, i odnesoše plijen u Samariju.
And the sons of Israel seized, from their brothers, two hundred thousand women, boys, and girls, and immense plunder. And they took it away to Samaria.
9 A ondje bijaše prorok Gospodnji po imenu Odid, i izide pred vojsku koja iðaše u Samariju, i reèe im: gle, Gospod Bog otaca vaših razgnjevi se na Judejce, zato ih dade u vaše ruke, te ih pobiste ljuto da do neba doprije.
At that time, there was a prophet of the Lord there, named Oded. And going out to meet the army arriving in Samaria, he said to them: “Behold, the Lord, the God of your fathers, having become angry against Judah, has delivered them into your hands. But you have killed them by atrocities, so that your cruelty has reached up to heaven.
10 I još mislite podvræi sinove Judine i Jerusalimske da vam budu robovi i robinje; a nijeste li i vi sami skrivili Gospodu Bogu svojemu?
Moreover, you wanted to subjugate the sons of Judah and Jerusalem as your men and women servants, which is a work that should never be done. And so you sinned in this matter against the Lord your God.
11 Zato poslušajte me sada, i vratite natrag to roblje što zarobiste braæi svojoj, jer se raspalio gnjev Gospodnji na vas.
But listen to my counsel, and release the captives, whom you have brought from your brothers. For a great fury of the Lord is hanging over you.”
12 Tada ustaše poglavari sinova Jefremovijeh: Azarija sin Joananov, Varahija sin Mesilemotov i Jezekija sin Salumov i Amasa sin Adlajev na one što se vraæahu s vojske,
And so, some of the leaders of the sons of Ephraim, Azariah, the son of Johanan, Berechiah, the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah, the son of Shallum, and Amasa, the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who were arriving from the battle.
13 I rekoše im: neæete dovesti ovamo toga roblja, jer bi nam bilo na grijeh pred Gospodom što vi mislite domeæuæi na grijehe naše i na krivice naše, jer je velika krivica na nama i gnjev se raspalio na Izrailja.
And they said to them: “You shall not lead back captives to here, lest we sin against the Lord. Why are you willing to add to our sins, and to build upon our old offenses? For indeed, the sin is great, and the furious anger of the Lord is hanging over Israel.”
14 I ostaviše vojnici roblje i plijen svoj pred knezovima i svijem zborom.
And the warriors released the spoils and all that they had seized, in the sight of the leaders and the entire multitude.
15 I ustaše ljudi imenovani i uzeše roblje, i sve gole izmeðu njih odješe iz plijena; a kad ih odješe i obuše, nahraniše ih i napojiše i namazaše, i odvedoše na magarcima sve iznemogle, i dovedoše ih u Jerihon grad gdje ima mnogo palama, k braæi njihovoj, pa se vratiše u Samariju.
And the men, whom we mentioned above, rose up and took the captives. All those who were naked, they clothed from the spoils. And when they had clothed them, and had given them shoes, and had refreshed them with food and drink, and had anointed them because of the hardship, and had cared for them, whoever was not able to walk and whoever was feeble in body, they set them upon beasts of burden, and they led them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brothers, and they themselves returned to Samaria.
16 U to vrijeme posla car Ahaz k carevima Asirskim da mu pomogu.
In that time, king Ahaz sent to the king of the Assyrians, requesting assistance.
17 Jer još i Idumejci doðoše i razbiše Judu i odvedoše roblje;
And the Edomites arrived and struck down many of Judah, and they seized great plunder.
18 I Filisteji udariše na gradove po ravni i na južnom kraju Judinu, i uzeše Vet-Semes, i Ejalon i Gedirot i Sohot i sela njegova i Tamnu i sela njezina i Gimzon i sela njegova, i naseliše se u njima.
Also, the Philistines spread out among the cities of the plains, and to the south of Judah. And they seized Beth-shemesh, and Aijalon, and Gederoth, and also Soco, and Timnah, and Gimzo, with their villages, and they lived in them.
19 Jer Gospod obaraše Judu s Ahaza cara Izrailjeva, jer odvuèe Judu da grdno griješi Gospodu.
For the Lord had humbled Judah because of Ahaz, the king of Judah, since he had stripped it of help, and had shown contempt for the Lord.
20 I doðe k njemu Telgat-Felnasar car Asirski, i ojadi ga a ne utvrdi.
And he led against him Tilgath-pilneser, the king of the Assyrians, who also afflicted him and laid waste to him, without resistance.
21 Jer Ahaz uze dio iz doma Gospodnjega i iz doma carskoga i od knezova, i dade caru Asirskom, ali mu ne pomože.
And so Ahaz, despoiling the house of the Lord, and the house of the kings and the leaders, gave gifts to the king of the Assyrians, and yet it profited him nothing.
22 I kad bijaše u nevolji, on još veæma griješaše Gospodu; taki bijaše car Ahaz.
Moreover, in the time of his anguish, he also added to his contempt against the Lord. King Ahaz himself, by himself,
23 I prinošaše žrtve bogovima Damaštanskim, koji ga razbiše, i govoraše: kad bogovi careva Sirskih njima pomažu, prinosiæu njima žrtve da bi mi pomagali; ali mu oni biše na to da padne on i sav Izrailj.
immolated victims to the gods of Damascus, those who had struck him. And he said: “The gods of the kings of Syria assist them, and so I will please them with victims, and they will help me.” But to the contrary, they had been the ruin of him and of all Israel.
24 A Ahaz pokupi sudove doma Božijega, i izlomi sudove doma Božijega, i zatvori vrata doma Gospodnjega i naèini sebi oltare po svijem uglovima u Jerusalimu.
And so, Ahaz, having despoiled and broken apart all the vessels of the house of God, closed up the doors of the temple of God, and made for himself altars in all the corners of Jerusalem.
25 I u svakom gradu Judinu naèini visine da kadi bogovima tuðim; i gnjevi Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.
Also, he constructed altars in all the cities of Judah, in order to burn frankincense, and so he provoked the Lord, the God of his fathers, to wrath.
26 A ostala djela njegova i svi putovi njegovi prvi i pošljednji, eto zapisani su u knjizi o carevima Judinijem i Izrailjevijem.
But the rest of his words, and all his works, the first and the last, have been written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
27 I poèinu Ahaz kod otaca svojih i pogreboše ga u gradu Jerusalimu; ali ga ne metnuše u grob careva Izrailjevijeh. I zacari se na njegovo mjesto Jezekija sin njegov.
And Ahaz slept with his fathers. And they buried him in the city of Jerusalem. And they did not allow him to be in the sepulchers of the kings of Israel. And his son, Hezekiah, reigned in his place.
