2 Kroniška 12
1 Pripetilo se je, ko je Rehabám utrdil kraljestvo in se okrepil, da je zapustil Gospodovo postavo in ves Izrael z njim.
After Rehoboam had established his sovereignty and royal power, he and all Israel with him forsook the Law of the LORD.
2 Pripetilo se je, da je v petem letu kralja Rehabáma egiptovski kralj Šišák prišel gor zoper Jeruzalem, ker so se pregrešili zoper Gospoda,
In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, because they had been unfaithful to the LORD, Shishak king of Egypt came up and attacked Jerusalem
3 s tisoč dvesto bojnimi vozovi in šestdeset tisoč konjeniki. Ljudstva, ki so prišli z njim iz Egipta, je bilo brez števila: Libijci, Súkijci in Etiopci.
with 1,200 chariots, 60,000 horsemen, and countless troops who came with him out of Egypt—Libyans, Sukkites, and Cushites.
4 Zavzel je utrjena mesta, ki pripadajo Judu in prišel do Jeruzalema.
He captured the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem.
5 Potem je prišel prerok Šemajá k Rehabámu in k Judovim princem, ki so bili zaradi Šišáka zbrani skupaj v Jeruzalemu ter jim rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Vi ste zapustili mene in zato sem tudi jaz vas prepustil v Šišákovo roko.‹«
Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and he said to them, “This is what the LORD says: ‘You have forsaken Me; therefore, I have forsaken you into the hand of Shishak.’”
6 Nakar so se Izraelovi princi in kralj ponižali ter rekli: » Gospod je pravičen.«
So the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves and said, “The LORD is righteous.”
7 Ko je Gospod videl, da so se ponižali, je beseda od Gospoda prišla k Šemajáju, rekoč: »Oni so se ponižali, zato jih ne bom uničil, temveč jim bom zagotovil nekaj osvoboditve, in moj bes ne bo izlit na Jeruzalem po Šišákovi roki.
When the LORD saw that they had humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, but will soon grant them deliverance. My wrath will not be poured out on Jerusalem through Shishak.
8 Kljub temu bodo njegovi služabniki, da bodo lahko spoznali moje služenje in služenje kraljestvom dežel.«
Nevertheless, they will become his servants, so that they may learn the difference between serving Me and serving the kings of other lands.”
9 Tako je egiptovski kralj Šišák prišel gor nad Jeruzalem in odnesel zaklade Gospodove hiše in zaklade kraljeve hiše. Vse je vzel. Odnesel je tudi ščite iz zlata, ki jih je naredil Salomon.
So King Shishak of Egypt attacked Jerusalem and seized the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the royal palace. He took everything, including the gold shields that Solomon had made.
10 Namesto teh je kralj Rehabám naredil ščite iz brona in jih predal v roke poveljnika straže, ki je varoval vhod kraljeve hiše.
Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place and committed them to the care of the captains of the guard on duty at the entrance to the royal palace.
11 Ko je kralj vstopil v Gospodovo hišo, je prišla straža ter jih nosila in jih [potem] ponovno prinesla v stražarnico.
And whenever the king entered the house of the LORD, the guards would go with him, bearing the shields, and later they would return them to the guardroom.
12 Ko se je ponižal, se je Gospodov bes odvrnil od njega, da ga ne bi povsem uničil. Tudi v Judu so stvari šle dobro.
Because Rehoboam humbled himself, the anger of the LORD turned away from him, and He did not destroy him completely. Indeed, conditions were good in Judah.
13 Tako se je kralj Rehabám okrepil v Jeruzalemu in kraljeval, kajti Rehabám je bil star enainštirideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in sedemnajst let je kraljeval v Jeruzalemu, mestu, ki ga je Gospod izbral izmed vseh Izraelovih rodov, da tam postavi svoje ime. Ime njegove matere je bilo Naáma, Amónka.
Thus King Rehoboam established himself in Jerusalem. He was forty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel in which to put His Name. His mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonite.
14 Počel je zlo, ker svojega srca ni pripravil, da išče Gospoda.
And Rehoboam did evil because he did not set his heart to seek the LORD.
15 Torej dejanja Rehabáma, prva in zadnja, mar niso zapisana v knjigi preroka Šemajája in vidca Idója glede rodovnikov? In nenehno so bile vojne med Rehabámom in Jerobeámom.
Now the acts of Rehoboam, from first to last, are they not written in the records of Shemaiah the Prophet and of Iddo the Seer concerning the genealogies? There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam throughout their days.
16 Rehabám je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopan je bil v Davidovem mestu. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Abíja.
And Rehoboam rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Abijah reigned in his place.
