1 Књига о царевима 16
1 И дође реч Господња Јују, сину Ананијевом за Васу говорећи:
During the time that Baasha [was king of Israel], [the prophet] Jehu, Hanani’s son, gave Baasha this message that he had received from Yahweh:
2 Што те подигох из праха и поставих вођом народу свом Израиљу, а ти идеш путем Јеровоамовим и наводиш на грех народ мој Израиља да ме гневи гресима својим,
“You were very insignificant/unimportant [IDM] when I caused you to become the ruler of my Israeli people. But you have caused me to become very angry by doing [IDM] the kinds of evil things that King Jeroboam did. You have also caused me to become angry by causing my people to sin.
3 Ево, ја ћу затрти наслеђе Васино и наслеђе дома његовог, и учинићу с домом твојим као с домом Јеровоама, сина Наватовог.
So now I will get rid of you and your family [MTY]. I will do to you just like I did to Jeroboam and his family.
4 Ко Васин погине у граду, изјешће га пси, а ко погине у пољу, изјешће га птице небеске.
[The bodies of] those in your family who die in this city [will not be buried; they] will be eaten by dogs; and [the corpses of] those who die in the fields will be eaten by vultures.”
5 А остала дела Васина и шта је чинио, и јунаштво његово, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
The other things that happened during the time that Baasha ruled Israel, and the things that he did, are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
6 И почину Васа код отаца својих, и би погребен у Терси; а на његово место зацари се Ила, син његов.
When Baasha died, he was buried in Tirzah, [the capital city]. Then his son Elah became king.
7 И тако преко пророка Јуја, сина Ананијевог дође реч Господња против Васе и дома његовог за све зло што учини пред Господом гневећи Га делима својих руку, те би као дом Јеровоамов, и зато што га поби.
Yahweh gave that message about Baasha and his family to the prophet Jehu. Baasha had done many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, which caused Yahweh to become angry. Baasha did the same kind of things that King Jeroboam and his family had done previously. Yahweh was also angry with Baasha because he had killed all of Jeroboam’s family.
8 Двадесет шесте године царовања Асиног над Јудом зацари се Ила, син Васин над Израиљем, и царова две године у Терси.
After Asa had been the king of Judah for almost 26 years, Elah became the king of Israel. Elah ruled in Tirzah for [only] two years.
9 А слуга његов Зимрије, старешина над половином кола, диже буну на Илу, кад пијаше у Терси и опи се у кући Арсе, који управљаше домом његовим у Терси.
[A man named] Zimri was one of Elah’s army officers. He commanded the drivers of half of Elah’s army’s (chariots/two-wheeled vehicles pulled by horses). He made plans to kill Elah while Elah was in Tirzah, getting drunk at the house of [a man named] Arza. Arza was the man who took care of the things in the king’s palace.
10 И дође Зимрије и уби га и погуби га двадесет осме године царовања Асиног над Јудом, и зацари се на његово место.
Zimri went into Arza’s house and killed Elah. Then Zimri became the king of Israel. That was when Asa had been the king of Judah for 27 years.
11 А чим се зацари и седе на престо свој, поби сав дом Васин, не остави му ни што уза зид мокри, и родбину његову и пријатеље његове.
As soon as Zimri became king [MTY], he killed all of Baasha’s family [MTY]. That included every male [IDM] in Baasha’s family and all of Baasha’s male friends.
12 Тако Зимрије затре сав дом Васин по речи Господњој коју рече за Васу преко Јуја пророка,
That was just what Yahweh told the prophet Jehu would happen.
13 За све грехе Васине и за грехе Иле, сина његовог, којима грешише и којима на грех наводише Израиља гневећи Господа Бога Израиљевог таштинама својим.
Baasha and his son Elah had sinned and led the Israeli people to sin. They caused Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people worshiped, to become angry, because they both urged the people [to worship] worthless idols.
14 А остала дела Илина и све што је чинио, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
Everything else that Elah did is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
15 Године двадесет седме царовања Асиног над Јудом зацари се Зимрије, и царова седам дана у Терси; а народ тада стајаше у логору код Гиветона, који беше филистејски.
So Zimri became the king of Israel after Asa had been king of Judah for 27 years. But Zimri ruled in Tirzah for only seven days. The Israeli army was beseiging/surrounding Gibeah, a town which belonged to the Philistine people-group.
16 И народ што беше у логору кад чу да је Зимрије дигао буну и цара убио, исти дан сав Израиљ у логору постави царем над Израиљем Амрија војводу.
The men in the Israeli army camp heard that Zimri had secretly planned to kill King Elah, and then had killed him. So on that day the soldiers chose Omri, the commander of their army, to become the king of Israel.
17 И Амрије и сав Израиљ с њим отидоше од Гиветона и опколише Терсу.
The Israeli army was camped near Gibbethon [city]. When they heard what Zimri had done, they left there and went to Tirzah, and surrounded the city.
18 А Зимрије кад виде где освојише град, отиде у двор царски, и запали над собом двор царски, те погибе,
When Zimri realized that the city was [about to be] captured, he went into his palace and set it on fire. So the palace burned down, and he died [in the fire].
19 За грехе своје којима је грешио чинећи што је зло пред Господом, ходећи путем Јеровоамовим и у греху његовом, којим је грешио наводећи на грех Израиља.
He died because he had sinned by doing the things that Yahweh considered to be evil. Jeroboam had led the Israeli people to sin, and Zimri sinned just like Jeroboam had sinned.
20 А остала дела Зимријева и буна коју подиже, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
All the other things that Zimri did, and the record of how he rebelled [against King Elah], are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
21 Тада се раздели народ Израиљев на двоје: Половина народа приста за Тивнијом, сином Гинатовим да га учини царем, а друга половина приста за Амријем.
After Zimri died, the Israeli people were divided. One group wanted Tibni, the son of Ginath, to be their king. The other group wanted Omri [to be the king].
22 Али народ који приста за Амријем би јачи од народа који приста за Тивнијом сином Гонатовим. И умре Тивнија, а царова Амрије.
Those who supported Omri (were stronger than/defeated) those who supported Tibni. So Tibni was killed, and Omri became king.
23 Тридесет прве године царовања Асиног над Јудом поче царовати Амрије над Израиљем, и царова дванаест година; у Терси царова шест година.
Omri became king when Asa had been king of Judah for almost 31 years. Omri ruled Israel for 12 years. For the first six years he ruled in Tirzah.
24 И купи гору самаријску од Семера за два таланта сребра, и сагради град на гори, и назва град који сагради Самарија по имену Семера господара од горе.
Then he bought a hill from [a man named] Shemer and paid him about (150 pounds/70 kg.) of silver for it. Then Omri ordered his men to build a city on that hill, and he called it Samaria, to honor Shemer, the man who owned it previously.
25 А Амрије чињаше што је зло пред Господом, и горе чињаше од свих који беху пре њега.
But Omri did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did more evil deeds than any of the kings who ruled Israel before he did.
26 Јер хођаше свим путевима Јеровоама сина Наватовог и у греху његовом, којим је навео на грех Израиља гневећи Господа Бога Израиљевог таштинама својим.
[When] Jeroboam [was previously the king, he] had led the Israeli people to sin, and Omri committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam did. The Israeli people caused Yahweh, the God the Israeli people had worshiped, to become very angry, because they worshiped worthless idols.
27 А остала дела Амријева и све што је чинио, и јунаштва која је чинио, није ли то записано у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
Everything that Omri did, and the record of the victories that his [army] won, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
28 И почину Амрије код отаца својих, и би погребен у Самарији; а на његово се место зацари Ахав син његов.
After Omri died, he was buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab became king.
29 И Ахав, син Амријев, поче царовати над Израиљем тридесет осме године царовања Асиног над Јудом, и царова Ахав син Амријев над Израиљем у Самарији двадесет и две године.
Ahab became king of Israel when Asa had ruled Judah for almost 38 years. Ahab ruled in Samaria [city] for 22 years.
30 И чињаше Ахав, син Амријев, што је зло пред Господом, више од свих који беху пре њега.
Ahab did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He did more evil things than any of the kings who ruled Israel before he did.
31 И мало му беше што хођаше у гресима Јеровоама, сина Наватовог, него се још ожени Језавељом, кћерју Етвала цара сидонског, и отиде, те служаше Валу и клањаше му се.
He committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam did, but he did things that were worse than the things that Jeroboam did. He married [a woman named] Jezebel, the daughter of Ethbaal, the king of Sidon [city]. Then Ahab started to worship Baal, [the god that the Canaan people-group worshiped].
32 И начини олтар Валу у дому Валовом који сазида у Самарији.
He built a temple in Samaria in order that the Israeli people could worship Baal there, and he put an altar there for [making sacrifices to] Baal.
33 И начини Ахав гај, и учини Ахав више од свих царева Израиљевих који беху пре њега, да би разгневио Господа Бога Израиљевог.
He also made an idol that represented Asherah, [Baal’s wife]. He did many more things that caused Yahweh to become angry. He did more evil things than any of the previous kings of Israel had done.
34 За његовог времена Хил Ветиљанин сазида Јерихон. На Авирону првенцу свом основа га, а на Сегуву мезимцу свом метну му врата по речи Господњој, коју рече преко Исуса сина Навиног.
During the years that Ahab [ruled], Hiel, a man from Bethel [city], rebuilt Jericho [city]. But when he started to rebuild the city, his oldest son Abiram died. And [when the city was finished, ] while Hiel was building the city gates, his youngest son Segub died. They died just like Yahweh had told Joshua would happen [to the sons of anyone who would rebuild Jericho].
