< 2 Kroniška 21 >
1 Torej Józafat je zaspal s svojimi očeti in bil s svojimi očeti pokopan v Davidovem mestu. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Jehorám.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David: and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
2 Ta je imel brate, Józafatove sinove: Azarjája, Jehiéla, Zeharjája, Azarjája, Mihaela in Šefatjája. Vsi ti so bili sinovi Izraelovega kralja Józafata.
He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 Njihov oče jim je dal veliko daril iz srebra in iz zlata in dragocenih stvari, z utrjenimi mesti v Judu, toda kraljestvo je dal Jehorámu, ker je bil prvorojenec.
Their father gave them great gifts, of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 Torej ko je bil Jehorám dvignjen h kraljestvu svojega očeta, se je okrepil in vse svoje brate usmrtil z mečem in tudi številne izmed Izraelovih princev.
Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and various also of the princes of Israel.
5 Jehorám je bil star dvaintrideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval osem let.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 Hodil je po poti Izraelovih kraljev, podobno kakor je storila Ahábova hiša, kajti za ženo je imel Ahábovo hčer. Počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh.
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
7 Vendar Gospod ni hotel uničiti Davidove hiše zaradi zaveze, ki jo je sklenil z Davidom in kakor je obljubil, da da luč njemu in njegovim sinovom na veke.
However the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
8 V njegovih dneh so se Edómci spuntali izpod Judovega gospostva in si postavili kralja.
In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
9 Potem je Jehorám s svojimi princi odšel naprej in vsi njegovi bojni vozovi z njim. Ponoči je vstal in udaril Edomce, ki so obkolili njega in stotnike bojnih vozov.
Then Jehoram passed over with his captains, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.
10 Tako so se Edómci spuntali izpod Judove roke do današnjega dne. Isti čas se je tudi Libna spuntala izpod njegove roke, ker je zapustil Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov.
So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day: then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 Poleg tega je postavil visoke kraje po Judovih gorah in prebivalcem Jeruzalema storil, da zagrešijo prešuštvovanje in k temu zapeljal Juda.
Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.
12 In k njemu je prišlo pisanje preroka Elija, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod, Bog tvojega očeta Davida: ›Ker nisi hodil po poteh svojega očeta Józafata niti po poteh Judovega kralja Asája,
A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, "Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, 'Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 temveč si hodil po poti Izraelovih kraljev in si pripravil Juda in prebivalce Jeruzalema, da se vlačugajo, podobno vlačugarstvom Ahábove hiše in si tudi umoril svoje brate od hiše svojega očeta, ki so bili boljši kakor ti sam.
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, like the house of Ahab did, and also have slain your brothers of your father's house, who were better than yourself:
14 Glej, z veliko nadlogo bo Gospod udaril tvoje ljudstvo, tvoje otroke, tvoje žene in vse tvoje dobrine,
look, the LORD will strike with a great plague your people, and your children, and your wives, and all your substance;
15 ti pa boš imel veliko slabost z boleznijo svoje notranjosti, dokler tvoja notranjost ne zleze ven zaradi razloga bolezni dan za dnem.«
and you shall have great sickness by disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.'"
16 Poleg tega je Gospod zoper Jehoráma razvnel duha Filistejcev in Arabcev, ki so bili blizu Etiopijcev.
The LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians:
17 Ti so prišli gor v Juda in vdrli vanj in odnesli vse imetje, ki je bilo najdeno v kraljevi hiši in tudi njegove sinove in njegove žene, tako da mu ni ostal sin razen Joaháza, najmlajšega izmed njegovih sinov.
and they came up against Judah, and broke into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 Po vsem tem ga je Gospod udaril v njegovi notranjosti z neozdravljivo boleznijo.
After all this the LORD struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 Pripetilo se je tekom časa, po koncu dveh let, da je njegova notranjost zlezla ven zaradi razloga njegove slabosti. Tako je umrl od hudih bolezni. Njegovo ljudstvo zanj ni naredilo nobenega sežiga [dišav], podobnega sežigu njegovim očetom.
It happened, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Dvaintrideset let je bil star, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval osem let in odšel, brez da bi ga želeli. Vendar so ga pokopali v Davidovem mestu, toda ne v kraljevih mavzolejih.
Thirty-two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years: and he departed without being desired; and they buried him in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
