2 Kraljevima 21
1 Dvanaest godina bješe Manasiji kad poèe carovati, i carova pedeset i pet godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Efsiva.
Manasseh was twelve years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for fifty-five years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Hephzibah.
2 I èinjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom po gadnijem djelima naroda, koje Gospod odagna ispred sinova Izrailjevijeh;
And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, in accord with the idols of the nations that the Lord destroyed before the face of the sons of Israel.
3 Jer opet naèini visine, koje bješe potro Jezekija otac njegov, i podiže oltare Valu, i naèini lug kao što bješe naèinio Ahav car Izrailjev, i klanjaše se svoj vojsci nebeskoj i služaše joj.
And he turned away. And he built up the high places that his father, Hezekiah, had destroyed. And he erected altars to Baal, and he made sacred groves, just as Ahab, the king of Israel, had done. And he adored the entire army of heaven, and he served them.
4 I naèini oltare u domu Gospodnjem, za koji bješe rekao Gospod: u Jerusalimu æu namjestiti ime svoje;
And he constructed altars in the house of the Lord, about which the Lord said: “In Jerusalem, I will place my name.”
5 Naèini oltare svoj vojsci nebeskoj u dva trijema doma Gospodnjega.
And he constructed altars, for the entire army of heaven, within the two courts of the temple of the Lord.
6 I sina svojega provede kroz oganj, i vraèaše i gataše, i uredi one što se dogovaraju s duhovima i vraèare; i èinjaše vrlo mnogo što je zlo pred Gospodom, gnjeveæi ga.
And he led his son through fire. And he used divinations, and observed omens, and appointed soothsayers, and multiplied diviners, so that he did evil before the Lord, and provoked him.
7 I postavi rezan lik šumski koji naèini u domu, za koji bješe rekao Gospod Davidu i Solomunu sinu njegovu: u ovom domu i u Jerusalimu, koji izabrah izmeðu svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh, namjestiæu ime svoje dovijeka;
Also, he set up an idol, of the sacred grove that he had made, in the temple of the Lord, about which the Lord said to David, and to his son Solomon: “In this temple, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will place my name forever.
8 I neæu više dati da se makne noga sinovima Izrailjevijem iz zemlje koju dadoh ocima njihovijem, ako samo uzdrže i ustvore sve što sam im zapovjedio, i sav zakon koji im je zapovjedio moj sluga Mojsije.
And I will no longer cause the feet of Israel to be moved from the land that I gave to their fathers: if only they will take care to do all that I have instructed them, and the entire law that my servant Moses commanded to them.”
9 Ali ne poslušaše, jer ih zavede Manasija, te èiniše gore nego narodi koje istrijebi Gospod ispred sinova Izrailjevijeh.
Yet truly, they did not listen. Instead, they were seduced by Manasseh, so that they did evil, more so than the nations that the Lord crushed before the face of the sons of Israel.
10 A Gospod govoraše preko sluga svojih proroka govoreæi:
And so the Lord spoke, by the hand of his servants, the prophets, saying:
11 Što uèini Manasija car Judin ta gadna djela èineæi gore od svega što su èinili Amoreji koji prije njega biše, i navede na grijeh i Judu gadnijem bogovima svojim;
“Since Manasseh, the king of Judah, has committed these wicked abominations, beyond all that the Amorites before him have done, and also has caused Judah to sin by his defilements,
12 Zato ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu pustiti zlo na Jerusalim i na Judu, da æe svakome ko èuje zujati oba uha.
because of this, thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Behold, I will lead evils over Jerusalem and over Judah, such that, whoever will hear of these things, both his ears will ring.
13 Jer æu zategnuti nad Jerusalimom uže Samarijsko i mjerila doma Ahavova, i zbrisaæu Jerusalim, kao što se briše zdjela, izbriše se pa se izvrne.
And I will extend the measuring line of Samaria over Jerusalem, with the scale of the house of Ahab. And I will erase Jerusalem, just as writing tablets are usually erased. And after erasing, I will turn it and repeatedly drag a stylus over its surface.
14 I ostaviæu ostatak našljedstva svojega, i daæu ih u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem da budu plijen i grabež svijem neprijateljima svojim.
And truly, I will send away the remnants of my inheritance, and I will deliver them into the hands of their enemies. And they will be devastated and plundered by all their adversaries.
15 Jer èiniše što je zlo preda mnom, i gnjeviše me od dana kad izidoše oci njihovi iz Misira do danas.
For they have done evil before me, and they have persevered in provoking me, from the day when their fathers departed from Egypt, even to this day.
16 Još i pravu krv veoma mnogu proli Manasija tako da napuni Jerusalim od kraja do kraja, osim grijeha svojega kojim navede Judu na grijeh da èini što je zlo pred Gospodom.
Moreover, Manasseh also has shed an exceedingly great amount of innocent blood, until he filled Jerusalem even to the mouth, aside from his sins by which he caused Judah to sin, so that they did evil before the Lord.”
17 A ostala djela Manasijina i sve što je èinio, i grijeh, kojim je griješio, nije li to zapisano u dnevniku careva Judinijeh?
Now the rest of the words of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
18 I poèinu Manasija kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u vrtu kod doma svojega, u vrtu Ozinu; a na njegovo mjesto zacari se Amon sin njegov.
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza. And Amon, his son, reigned in his place.
19 Dvadeset i dvije godine imaše Amon kad poèe carovati, i carova dvije godine u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Mesulemeta, kæi Arusova, iz Joteve.
Amon was twenty-two years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for two years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz, from Jotbah.
20 On èinjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom, kao što je èinio Manasija otac njegov.
And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, just as his father, Manasseh, had done.
21 I hoðaše svijem putem kojim je hodio otac njegov, i služaše gadnijem bogovima, kojima je služio otac njegov, i klanjaše im se.
And he walked in all the ways in which his father had walked. And he served the unclean things that his father had served, and he adored them.
22 I ostavi Gospoda Boga otaca svojih, i ne hodi putem Gospodnjim.
And he abandoned the Lord, the God of his fathers, and he did not walk in the way of the Lord.
23 A sluge Amonove pobuniše se na nj, i ubiše cara u dvoru njegovu.
And his servants undertook treachery against him. And they killed the king in his own house.
24 A narod zemaljski pobi sve koji se bijahu pobunili na cara Amona; i zacari narod zemaljski na njegovo mjesto Josiju sina njegova.
But the people of the land slew all those who had conspired against king Amon. And they appointed for themselves Josiah, his son, as king in his place.
25 A ostala djela Amonova, što je èinio, nijesu li zapisana u dnevniku careva Judinijeh?
But the rest of the words of Amon, which he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
26 I pogreboše ga u njegovu grobu u vrtu Ozinu; i Josija sin njegov bi car na njegovo mjesto.
And they buried him in his sepulcher, in the garden of Uzza. And his son, Josiah, reigned in his place.
