2 Kroniška 29
1 Ezekíja je začel vladati, ko je bil star petindvajset let in v Jeruzalemu je vladal devetindvajset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Abíja, Zeharjájeva hči.
And so Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
2 Delal je, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, glede na vse to, kar je storil njegov oče David.
And he did what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, in accord with all that his father David had done.
3 V prvem letu svojega vladanja, v prvem mesecu, je odprl vrata Gospodove hiše in jih popravil.
In the first year and month of his reign, he opened the double doors of the house of the Lord, and he repaired them.
4 Pripeljal je duhovnike in Lévijevce ter jih skupaj zbral na vzhodni ulici
And he brought together the priests and Levites. And he gathered them in the wide eastern street.
5 ter jim rekel: »Poslušajte me, vi Lévijevci, sedaj se posvetite in posvetite hišo Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov in odnesite umazanost iz svetega kraja.
And he said to them: “Listen to me, O Levites, and be sanctified. Cleanse the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers, and take away every uncleanness from the sanctuary.
6 Kajti naši očetje so grešili in naredili to, kar je bilo zlo v očeh Gospoda, našega Boga, ga zapustili in svoje obraze obrnili proč od Gospodovega prebivališča in obrnili svoje hrbte.
Our fathers sinned and did evil in the sight of the Lord our God, abandoning him. They turned their faces away from the tabernacle of the Lord, and they presented their backs.
7 Prav tako so zaprli vrata preddverja in ugasili svetilke in niso zažigali kadila niti darovali žgalnih daritev Izraelovemu Bogu na svetem kraju.
They closed up the doors which were in the portico, and they extinguished the lamps. And they did not burn incense, and they did not offer holocausts, in the sanctuary of the God of Israel.
8 Zato je bil Gospodov bes nad Judom in Jeruzalemom in izročil jih je v težavo, osuplost in posmeh, kakor vidite s svojimi očmi.
And so the fury of the Lord was stirred up against Judah and Jerusalem, and he handed them over to turmoil, and to destruction, and to hissing, just as you discern with your own eyes.
9 Kajti, glejte, naši očetje so padli pod mečem, naši sinovi, naše hčere in naše žene so zaradi tega v ujetništvu.
Lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword. Our sons, and our daughters and wives have been led away as captives because of this wickedness.
10 Sedaj je na mojem srcu, da sklenem zavezo z Gospodom, Izraelovim Bogom, da se njegov kruti bes lahko odvrne od nas.
Now therefore, it is pleasing to me that we should enter into a covenant with the Lord, the God of Israel. And he will turn away the fury of his indignation from us.
11 Moji sinovi, ne bodite sedaj nemarni, kajti Gospod vas je izbral, da stojite pred njim, da mu služite in da bi mu služili in zažigali kadilo.
My sons, do not choose to be negligent. The Lord has chosen you so that you would stand before him, and minister to him, and worship him, and burn incense to him.”
12 Potem so vstali Lévijevci: Amasájev sin Mahat in Azarjájev sin Joél izmed sinov Kehátovcev; izmed Meraríjevih sinov Abdíjev sin Kiš in Jehalelélov sin Azarjá; izmed Geršóncev Zimájev sin Joáh in Joáhov sin Eden;
Therefore, the Levites rose up, Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel, the son of Azariah, from the sons of Kohath; then, from the sons of Merari, Kish, the son of Abdi, and Azariah, the son of Jehallelel; and from the sons of Gershon, Joah, the son of Zimmah, and Eden, the son of Joah;
13 izmed Elicafánovih sinov Šimríj in Jeiél; izmed Asáfovih sinov Zeharjá in Matanjá;
and truly, from the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; also, from the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
14 izmed Hemánovih sinov Jehiél in Šimí in izmed Jedutúnovih sinov Šemajája in Uziél.
indeed also, from the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; then too, from the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
15 Zbrali so svoje brate, se posvetili in prišli glede na kraljevo zapoved, po Gospodovih besedah, da očistijo Gospodovo hišo.
And they gathered together their brothers. And they were sanctified. And they entered in accord with the command of the king and the order of the Lord, so that they might expiate the house of God.
16 Duhovniki so odšli v notranji del Gospodove hiše, da jo očistijo in ven prinesejo vso nečistost, ki jo najdejo v Gospodovem templju, na dvoru Gospodove hiše. In Lévijevci so to vzeli, da to odnesejo ven, v potok Kidron.
And the priests, entering the temple of the Lord so that they might sanctify it, took every uncleanness, which they had found inside, out to the vestibule of the house of the Lord; and the Levites took it away and transported it outside, to the torrent Kidron.
17 Torej posvečevati so začeli na prvi dan prvega meseca in na osmi dan meseca so prišli do Gospodovega preddverja. Tako so v osmih dneh posvetili Gospodovo hišo in na šestnajsti dan prvega meseca so dokončali.
Now they began to cleanse on the first day of the first month. And on the eighth day of the same month, they entered the portico of the temple of the Lord. And then they expiated the temple over eight days. And on the sixteenth day of the same month, they finished what they had begun.
18 Potem so odšli h kralju Ezekíju in rekli: »Očistili smo vso Gospodovo hišo in oltar žgalne daritve, z vsemi njegovimi posodami in mizo hlebov navzočnosti, z vsemi njenimi posodami.
Also, they entered to king Hezekiah, and they said to him: “We have sanctified the entire house of the Lord, and the altar of holocaust, and its vessels, indeed also the table of the presence, with all its vessels,
19 Poleg tega smo pripravili in posvetili vse posode, ki jih je kralj Aház ob svojem kraljevanju v svojem prestopku zavrgel. Glej, pred Gospodovim oltarjem so.
and all the equipment of the temple, which king Ahaz, during his reign, had polluted after his transgression. And behold, these have all been set forth before the altar of the Lord.”
20 Potem se je kralj Ezekíja zgodaj dvignil in zbral voditelje mesta ter odšel gor h Gospodovi hiši.
And rising up at first light, king Hezekiah joined as one all the leaders of the city, and they ascended to the house of the Lord.
21 Privedli so sedem bikcev, sedem ovnov, sedem jagnjet in sedem kozlov za daritev za greh za kraljestvo, za svetišče in za Juda. Duhovnikom, Aronovim sinovom, je zapovedal, da jih darujejo na Gospodovem oltarju.
And together they offered seven bulls and seven rams, seven lambs and seven he-goats, for sin, for the kingdom, for the Sanctuary, for Judah. And he spoke to the priests, the sons of Aaron, so that they would offer these upon the altar of the Lord.
22 Tako so zaklali bikce in duhovniki so prestregli kri in jo poškropili na oltar. Tudi ko so zaklali ovne, so na oltar poškropili kri. Zaklali so tudi jagnjeta in na oltar poškropili kri.
And so they slaughtered the bulls. And the priests took up the blood, and they poured it upon the altar. Then they also slaughtered the rams, and they poured their blood upon the altar. And they immolated the lambs, and they poured the blood upon the altar.
23 Pred kralja in skupnost so privedli kozle za daritev za greh in ti so svoje roke položili nanje.
They brought the he-goats for sin before the king and the entire multitude. And they laid their hands upon them.
24 Duhovniki so jih zaklali in naredili pobotanje z njihovo krvjo na oltarju, da opravijo odkupitev za ves Izrael, kajti kralj je zapovedal, da naj bo za ves Izrael narejena žgalna daritev in daritev za greh.
And the priests immolated them, and they sprinkled their blood before the altar, for the expiation of all Israel. For certainly the king had instructed that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made on behalf of all Israel.
25 V Gospodovi hiši je postavil Lévijevce s cimbalami, plunkami in harfami, glede na Davidovo zapoved in [glede na zapoved] Gada, kraljevega vidca in preroka Natána, kajti taka je bila Gospodova zapoved po njegovih prerokih.
Also, he situated the Levites in the house of the Lord, with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, according to the disposition of king David, and of the seer Gad, and of the prophet Nathan. For indeed, this was the precept of the Lord, by the hand of his prophets.
26 Lévijevci so stali z Davidovimi glasbili in duhovniki s trobentami.
And the Levites stood, holding the musical instruments of David, and the priests held the trumpets.
27 Ezekíja je zapovedal, da na oltarju darujejo žgalno daritev. Ko se je žgalna daritev začela, se je začela tudi Gospodova pesem s trobentami in z glasbili, ki jih je določil Izraelov kralj David.
And Hezekiah ordered that they should offer holocausts upon the altar. And when the holocausts were being offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound the trumpets, and to play various musical instruments, which David, the king of Israel, had prepared.
28 Vsa skupnost je oboževala in pevci so peli in trobentači so trobili. In vse to se je nadaljevalo, dokler ni bila dokončana žgalna daritev.
Then the entire crowd was adoring, and the singers and those who were holding the trumpeters were exercising their office, until the holocaust was completed.
29 Ko so prenehali z daritvijo, so se kralj in vsi tisti, ki so bili prisotni z njim, priklonili in oboževali.
And when the oblation was finished, the king, and all who were with him, bowed down and adored.
30 Poleg tega so kralj Ezekíja in princi zapovedali Lévijevcem, da prepevajo hvalo Gospodu z besedami Davida in vidca Asáfa. In z veseljem so peli hvalnice, sklonili svoje glave in oboževali.
And Hezekiah and the rulers instructed the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, and of Asaph, the seer. And they praised him with great joy, and kneeling down, they adored.
31 Potem je Ezekíja odgovoril in rekel: »Sedaj ste se uméstili Gospodu, pridite bliže in prinesite klavne daritve in zahvalne daritve v Gospodovo hišo.« In skupnost je prinesla klavne daritve in zahvalne daritve in toliko, kot jih je bilo voljnega srca, žgalne daritve.
And now Hezekiah also added: “You have filled your hands for the Lord. Draw near, and offer victims and praises in the house of the Lord.” Therefore, the entire multitude offered victims and praises and holocausts, with devout intention.
32 Število žgalnih daritev, ki jih je prinesla skupnost, je bilo sedemdeset bikcev, sto ovnov in dvesto jagnjet. Vsi ti so bili za žgalno daritev Gospodu.
Now the number of the holocausts that the multitude offered was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, two hundred lambs.
33 Posvečenih stvari je bilo šeststo volov in tri tisoč ovc.
And they sanctified to the Lord six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
34 Toda duhovnikov je bilo premalo, tako da niso mogli odreti vseh žgalnih daritev, zato so jim pomagali njihovi bratje Lévijevci, dokler ni bilo delo končano in dokler se niso posvetili drugi duhovniki, kajti Lévijevci so bili bolj iskreni v srcu, da se posvetijo, kakor duhovniki.
Truly, the priests were few; neither were they sufficient to remove the pelts from the holocausts. Therefore, the Levites, their brothers, also assisted them, until the work was completed, and the priests, who were of higher rank, were sanctified. For indeed, the Levites are sanctified with an easier ritual than the priests.
35 Tudi žgalnih daritev je bilo v obilju, s tolščo mirovnih daritev in pitnih daritev za vsako žgalno daritev. Tako je bila služba Gospodove hiše urejena.
Thus, there were very numerous holocausts, with the fat of the peace offerings and the libations of the holocausts. And the service of the house of the Lord was completed.
36 Ezekíja se je veselil in vse ljudstvo, da je Bog pripravil ljudstvo, kajti stvar je bila storjena nenadoma.
And Hezekiah and all the people were joyful because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For certainly, it had pleased them to do this suddenly.
