2 Kroniška 33
1 Manáse je bil star dvanajst let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval petinpetdeset let,
Twelve years old, was Manasseh when he began to reign, —and, fifty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
2 toda počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh, podobno ogabnostim poganov, ki jih je Gospod pregnal pred Izraelovimi otroki.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, -according to the abominable ways of the nations, whom Yahweh dispossessed from before the sons of Israel.
3 Kajti ponovno je zgradil visoke kraje, ki jih je njegov oče Ezekíja porušil, vzdignil Báalove oltarje, naredil ašere in oboževal vso vojsko neba ter jim služil.
And he again built the high places, which Hezekiah his father had thrown down, —and set up altars to the Baalim, and made Sacred Stems, and bowed in prostration unto all the army of the heavens, and served them;
4 Prav tako je zgradil oltarje v Gospodovi hiši, o kateri je Gospod rekel: »V Jeruzalemu bo moje ime na veke.«
and built altars in the house of Yahweh, —as to which Yahweh had said, In Jerusalem, shall be my Name, unto times age-abiding.
5 Zgradil je oltarje za vso vojsko neba v dveh dvorih Gospodove hiše.
Yea he built altars unto all the army of the heavens, —in the two courts of the house of Yahweh.
6 Svoje otroke je izročil, da gredo skozi ogenj v dolini sina Hinómovega. Obeleževal je tudi čase, uporabljal izrekanje urokov, uporabljal čarovništvo in postopal z osebnim duhom in s čarovniki. Storil je mnogo zla v Gospodovih očeh, da ga izziva do jeze.
And, he, caused his sons to pass through the fire, in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and practised hidden arts and used divination, and practised sorcery, and appointed a necromancer, and a wizard, —he exceeded in doing the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, to provoke him to anger;
7 Postavil je izrezljano podobo, malika, ki ga je naredil v Božji hiši, o kateri je Bog rekel Davidu in njegovemu sinu Salomonu: »V tej hiši, v Jeruzalemu, ki sem jo izbral pred vsemi Izraelovimi rodovi, bom svoje ime postavil na veke.
and he set a resemblance-image which he had made, —in the house of God, as to which God had said unto David, and unto Solomon his son, In this house and in Jerusalem which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my Name, unto times age-abiding.
8 Niti ne bom več odstranil Izraelovega stopala iz dežele, ki sem jo določil za vaše očete, tako da bodo pazili, da storijo vse, kar sem jim zapovedal, glede na celotno postavo, zakone in odredbe po Mojzesovi roki.
So will I not again remove the foot of Israel away from the soil which I appointed for their fathers. Only they must observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the regulations, by the hand of Moses.
9 Tako je Manáse storil Judu in prebivalcem Jeruzalema, da zaidejo in da počnejo huje kakor pogani, ki jih je Gospod uničil pred Izraelovimi otroki.
And so Manasseh led astray Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, —to commit wickedness beyond the nations which Yahweh had destroyed from before the sons of Israel.
10 Gospod je spregovoril Manáseju in njegovemu ljudstvu, toda niso hoteli prisluhniti.
And Yahweh spake unto Manasseh and unto his people, but they did not give ear.
11 Zato je Gospod nadnje privedel poveljnike vojske asirskega kralja, ki so Manáseja zajeli med trnjem in ga zvezali z okovi ter ga odvedli v Babilon.
So Yahweh brought in upon them, the captains of the army that belonged to the king of Assyria, and they captured Manasseh with hooks, —and bound him captive with a pair of bronze fetters, and took him away to Babylon.
12 Ko je bil v stiski, je iskal Gospoda, svojega Boga in se silno ponižal pred Bogom svojih očetov
But, in his distress, he appeased the face of Yahweh his God, —and humbled himself greatly, before the God of his fathers;
13 in molil k njemu in izprošen je bil od njega in slišal je njegovo ponižno prošnjo in ga ponovno privedel k Jeruzalemu, v njegovo kraljestvo. Potem je Manáse spoznal, da je bil Gospod Bog.
and, when he prayed unto him, then was he entreated of him, and hearkened unto his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem, unto his own kingdom, and so Manasseh came to know, that, Yahweh, is God.
14 Torej po tem je zgradil zid zunaj Davidovega mesta, na zahodni strani Gihona, v dolini, celo pri vhodu velikih ribjih vrat in obdal Ofel ter ga dvignil na zelo veliko višino in vojne poveljnike postavil v vsa utrjena Judova mesta.
And, after this, he built an outer wall to the city of David on the west of the Gihon in the ravine, even to the entering in through the fish-gate, and went round to Ophel, and carried it up very high, —and put captains of valour in all the fortified cities, throughout Judah.
15 Odstranil je tuje bogove in malike iz Gospodove hiše in vse oltarje, ki jih je zgradil na gori Gospodove hiše in v Jeruzalemu ter jih vrgel iz mesta.
And he removed the gods of the foreigner and the image, out of the house of Yahweh, and all the altars that he had built in the mountain of the house of Yahweh, and in Jerusalem, —and he cast them forth outside the city.
16 Popravil je Gospodov oltar in na njem žrtvoval mirovne daritve in zahvalne daritve in Judu zapovedal, da služi Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu.
And he built the altar of Yahweh, and sacrificed thereon peace-offerings, and thanksgiving sacrifices, -and gave word to Judah to serve Yahweh, God of Israel.
17 Kljub temu je ljudstvo še vedno darovalo na visokih krajih, vendar samo Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.
Howbeit, still were, the people, sacrificing in the high places, —only unto Yahweh their God.
18 Torej preostala izmed Manásejevih dejanj, njegova molitev k njegovemu Bogu in besede vidcev, ki so mu govorili v imenu Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga, glej, ta so zapisana v knjigi Izraelovih kraljev.
But, the rest of the story of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his God, and the story of the seers who spake unto him in the name of Yahweh God of Israel, there they are, in the story of the kings of Israel:
19 Tudi njegova molitev in kako je bil Bog izprošen od njega, ves njegov greh, njegov prekršek in kraji, na katerih si je zgradil visoke kraje ter postavil ašere in rezane podobe, preden je bil ponižan. Glej, ta so zapisana med izreki vidcev.
both his prayer and how [God] was entreated of him—and all his sin and his treacherous act, and the sites whereon he built high places, and set up the Sacred Stems and the images, before he humbled himself, there they are, written in the story of the seers.
20 Tako je Manáse zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopali so ga v njegovi lastni hiši. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Amón.
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden off his own house, —and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
21 Amón je bil star dvaindvajset let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval dve leti.
Twenty-two years old, was Amon when he began to reign, —and, two years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
22 Toda počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh, kakor je počel njegov oče Manáse, kajti Amón je žrtvoval vsem izrezljanim podobam, ki jih je naredil njegov oče Manáse in jim služil.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, as Manasseh his father had done, —and, unto all the images which Manasseh his father had made, Amon offered sacrifice, and did serve them.
23 Ni se ponižal pred Gospodom, kakor se je ponižal njegov oče Manáse, temveč je Amón bolj in bolj grešil.
But he did not humble himself before Yahweh as Manasseh his father humbled himself, —for, he, Amon, made guilt abound.
24 In njegovi služabniki so se zarotili zoper njega in ga usmrtili v njegovi lastni hiši.
And his servants conspired against him, and put him to death, in his own house.
25 Toda ljudstvo dežele je usmrtilo vse tiste, ki so se zarotili zoper kralja Amóna in ljudstvo dežele je postavilo njegovega sina Jošíja za kralja namesto njega.
But the people of the land smote all the conspirators against King Amon, —and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
