2 Kraljevima 22

1 Osam godina bijaše Josiji kad poèe carovati, i carova trideset i jednu godinu u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Jedida, kæi Adajeva, iz Voskata.

Iosiah was eight yeere olde when he beganne to reigne, and hee reigned one and thirtie yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Iedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozcath.

2 On èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom, i hoðaše svijem putem Davida oca svojega i ne otstupaše ni nadesno ni nalijevo.

And hee did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, and walked in all the wayes of Dauid his father, and bowed neither to the right hand, nor to the left.

3 A osamnaeste godine carovanja Josijina posla car Safana sina Azalije sina Mesulamova, pisara, u dom Gospodnji, govoreæi:

And in the eighteenth yeere of King Iosiah, the King sent Shaphan the sonne of Azaliah the sonne of Meshullam the chanceller to ye house of the Lord, saying,

4 Idi ka Helkiji poglavaru sveštenièkom, neka izbroji novce donesene u dom Gospodnji, što su nakupili od naroda vratari.

Goe vp to Hilkiah the high Priest, that hee may summe the siluer which is brought into the house of the Lord, which the keepers of the doore haue gathered of the people.

5 I neka ih da poslenicima koji nadgledaju dom Gospodnji, pa neka daju poslenicima koji rade oko doma Gospodnjega da se opravi što je trošno u domu,

And let them deliuer it into the hande of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord: let them giue it to them that worke in the house of the Lord, to repaire the decayed places of the house:

6 Drvodjeljama i kamenarima i zidarima, i da se kupuje drvo i kamen tesani da se opravi dom.

To wit, vnto the artificers and carpenters and masons, and to bye timber, and hewed stone to repaire the house.

7 Ali da im se ne traže raèuni od novaca koji im se dadu, jer æe vjerno raditi.

Howebeit, let no rekoning bee made with them of the money, that is deliuered into their hand: for they deale faithfully.

8 Tada reèe Helkija poglavar sveštenièki Safanu pisaru: naðoh zakonik u domu Gospodnjem. I Helkija dade knjigu Safanu, i on je proèita.

And Hilkiah the high Priest sayde vnto Shaphan the chanceller, I haue found the booke of the Lawe in the house of the Lord: and Hilkiah gaue the booke to Shaphan, and hee reade it.

9 A Safan pisar otide k caru, i javi caru govoreæi: pokupiše sluge tvoje novce što se naðoše u domu, predaše ih poslenicima koji nadgledaju dom Gospodnji.

So Shaphan the chanceller came to ye King, and brought him word againe, and saide, Thy seruants haue gathered the money, that was found in the house, and haue deliuered it vnto the hands of them that doe the worke, and haue the ouersight of the house of the Lord.

10 I kaza Safan pisar caru govoreæi: knjigu mi dade Helkija sveštenik. I proèita je Safan caru.

Also Shaphan the chanceller shewed the King saying, Hilkiah the Priest hath deliuered me a booke. And Shaphan read it before the King.

11 A kad car èu rijeèi u zakoniku, razdrije haljine svoje.

And when the King had heard the wordes of the booke of the Law, he rent his clothes.

12 I zapovjedi car Helkiji svešteniku i Ahikamu sinu Safanovu i Ahvoru sinu Mihejinu i Safanu pisaru i Asaji sluzi carevu, govoreæi:

Therefore the King commanded Hilkiah the Priest, and Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan, and Achbor the sonne of Michaiah, and Shaphan the chanceller, and Asahiah the Kings seruant, saying,

13 Idite, upitajte Gospoda za me i za narod i za svega Judu radi rijeèi ove knjige što se naðe; jer je velik gnjev Gospodnji koji se raspalio na nas zato što oci naši ne slušaše rijeèi ove knjige da èine sve onako kako nam je napisano.

Go ye and inquire of the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all Iudah concerning the wordes of this booke that is founde: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is kindled against vs, because our fathers haue not obeyed the wordes of this booke, to doe according vnto all that which is written therein for vs.

14 I tako otide Helkija sveštenik i Ahikam i Ahvor i Safan i Asaja k proroèici Oldi ženi Saluma sina Tekuja sina Arasa riznièara; a ona stajaše u Jerusalimu u drugom kraju; i govoriše s njom.

So Hilkiah the Priest and Ahikam, and Achbor and Shaphan, and Asahiah went vnto Huldah the Prophetesse the wife of Shallum, ye sonne of Tikuah, the sonne of Harhas keeper of the wardrobe: (and she dwelt in Ierusalem in the colledge) and they communed with her.

15 A ona im reèe: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: kažite èovjeku koji vas je poslao k meni:

And shee answered them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Tel the man that sent you to mee,

16 Ovako veli Gospod: evo pustiæu zlo na to mjesto i na stanovnike njegove, sve što govori knjiga koju je proèitao car Judin,

Thus sayth the Lord, Behold, I wil bring euill vpon this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, euen al the words of the booke which ye King of Iudah hath read,

17 Zato što me ostaviše, i kadiše drugim bogovima da bi me gnjevili svijem djelima ruku svojih; zato se gnjev moj raspalio na to mjesto, i neæe se ugasiti.

Because they haue forsaken mee, and haue burnt incense vnto other gods, to anger me with all ye works of their hands: my wrath also shalbe kindled against this place and shall not be queched:

18 A caru Judinu, koji vas je poslao da upitate Gospoda, ovako mu kažite: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev za rijeèi koje si èuo:

But to the King of Iudah, who sent you to inquire of the Lord, so shall ye say vnto him, Thus sayeth the Lord God of Israel, The wordes that thou hast heard, shall come to passe.

19 Što je umeknulo srce tvoje, i ponizio si se pred Gospodom kad si èuo šta sam govorio za to mjesto i za stanovnike njegove da æe biti pustoš i prokletinja, i što si razdro haljine svoje i plakao preda mnom, zato i ja usliših tebe, veli Gospod.

But because thine heart did melt, and thou hast humbled thy selfe before the Lord, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants of the same, to wit, that it should be destroyed and accursed, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me, I haue also heard it, saith the Lord.

20 Zato, evo, ja æu te pribrati k ocima tvojim i na miru æeš biti pribran u grob svoj, i neæeš oèima svojim vidjeti zla koje æu pustiti na to mjesto. I kazaše to caru.

Beholde therefore, I wil gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be put in thy graue in peace, and thine eyes shall not see all the euil, which I will bring vpon this place. Thus they brought the King worde againe.
