2 Kralji 12
1 V sedmem letu Jehúja je Joáš začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval štirideset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Cibjá iz Beeršébe.
In the seventh year of Jehu, the reign of Joash began; he reigned for forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
2 Joáš je delal to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, vse svoje dni, ko ga je duhovnik Jojadá poučeval.
Joash did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh all the time, because Jehoiada the priest was instructing him.
3 Toda visoki kraji niso bili odstranjeni. Ljudstvo je še vedno žrtvovalo in zažigalo kadilo na visokih krajih.
But the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
4 Joáš je rekel duhovnikom: »Ves denar od posvečenih stvari, ki je prinesen v Gospodovo hišo, celó denar vsakega, ki gre na račun, denar, ki je določen vsakemu možu in ves denar, ki pride v srce katerega človeka, da ga prinese v Gospodovo hišo,
Joash said to the priests, “All the money that is brought in as sacred offerings into the house of Yahweh, that money for which each person is assessed—whether it is the money collected in the census, or the money received from personal vows, or the money brought in by people motivated by Yahweh in their hearts to give—
5 naj ga duhovniki vzamejo k sebi, vsak človek od svojega znanca in naj popravijo vrzeli hiše, kjerkoli bi se našla kakršnakoli vrzel.«
the priests should receive the money from one of their treasurers and repair whatever damage is found in the temple.”
6 Toda bilo je tako, da v triindvajsetem letu kralja Joáša, duhovniki niso popravili vrzeli hiše.
But by the twenty-third year of King Joash, the priests had not repaired anything in the temple.
7 Potem je dal kralj Joáš poklicati duhovnika Jojadája in druge duhovnike ter jim rekel: »Zakaj ne popravite vrzeli hiše? Sedaj torej ne sprejemajte več denarja od svojega znanca, temveč ga izročite za vrzeli hiše.«
Then King Joash called for Jehoiada the priest and for the other priests; he said to them, “Why have you not repaired anything in the temple? Now take no more money from your taxpayers, but take what has been collected for repairs of the temple and give it to those who can make the repairs.”
8 Duhovniki so privolili, da od ljudstva ne sprejmejo nič več denarja niti za popravilo hišnih vrzeli.
So the priests consented to take no more money from the people and not repair the temple themselves.
9 Toda duhovnik Jojadá je vzel zaboj, v njegov pokrov izvrtal luknjo in ga postavil poleg oltarja, na desni strani, ko nekdo prihaja h Gospodovi hiši in duhovniki, ki varujejo vrata, so vanj polagali ves denar, ki je bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo.
Instead, Jehoiada the priest took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one comes into the house of Yahweh. The priests who were guarding the temple entrance put into it all the money that was brought to the house of Yahweh.
10 Bilo je tako, ko so videli, da je bilo v zaboju veliko denarja, sta prišla gor kraljev pisar in véliki duhovnik ter ga spravila v torbe in preštela denar, ki je bil najden v Gospodovi hiši.
Whenever they saw that there was much money in the chest, the king's scribe and the high priest would come and put the money in bags and then count it, the money found in the temple of Yahweh.
11 Denar sta izročila, kakor jima je bilo rečeno, v roke tistih, ki so opravljali delo, ki so nadzorovali Gospodovo hišo in ga izročila tesarjem in graditeljem, ki so delali na Gospodovi hiši,
They gave the money that was weighed out into the hands of men who took care of the temple of Yahweh. They paid it out to the carpenters and the builders who worked on the temple of Yahweh,
12 zidarjem in kamnosekom, da kupijo lesa in klesanega kamna, da popravijo vrzeli Gospodove hiše in za vse, kar se je porabilo za hišo, da jo popravijo.
and to the masons and the stonecutters, for buying timber and cutting stone to repair the temple of Yahweh, and for all that was needed to be paid to repair it.
13 Vendar za Gospodovo hišo niso bile izdelane skledice iz srebra, utrinjala, umivalniki, trobente in vsakršne posode iz zlata ali posode iz srebra, od denarja, ki je bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo,
But the money that was brought into the house of Yahweh did not pay to make for it any silver cups, lamp trimmers, basins, trumpets, or any gold or silver furnishing.
14 temveč so ga dali delavcem in z njim popravljali Gospodovo hišo.
They gave this money to those who did the work of repairing the house of Yahweh.
15 Poleg tega niso delali obračuna z možmi, v čigar roko so izročili denar, da bi bil podeljen delavcem, kajti postopali so zvesto.
In addition, they did not require the money paid for repairs to be accounted for by the men who received it and paid it to the workmen, because these men were honest.
16 Denar za prekršek in denar za greh ni bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo. Ta je pripadal duhovnikom.
But the money for the guilt offerings and the money for the sin offerings was not brought into the temple of Yahweh, because it belonged to the priests.
17 Potem je sirski kralj Hazaél odšel gor, se boril zoper Gat, ga zavzel in Hazaél je svoj obraz nameril, da gre gor do Jeruzalema.
Then Hazael king of Aram attacked and fought against Gath, and took it. Hazael then turned to attack Jerusalem.
18 Judov kralj Joáš je vzel vse posvečene stvari, ki so jih Józafat, Jehorám in Ahazjá, njegovi očetje, Judovi kralji, posvetili in svoje lastne posvečene stvari in vse zlato, ki je bilo najdeno v zakladnicah Gospodove hiše in v kraljevi hiši in to poslal sirskemu kralju Hazaélu in ta je odšel proč od Jeruzalema.
Joash king of Judah took all the things that Jehoshaphat and Jehoram and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had set apart, and what he had set apart, and all the gold that was found in the storerooms of the houses of Yahweh and of the king and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram. Then Hazael went away from Jerusalem.
19 Ostala Joaševa dela in vse, kar je storil, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Judovih kraljev?
As for the other matters concerning Joash, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
20 Njegova služabnika pa sta vstala, skovala zaroto in Joáša usmrtila v Milójevi hiši, ki gre dol do Sila.
His servants arose and plotted together; they attacked Joash in Beth Millo, on the way that goes down to Silla.
21 Kajti njegova služabnika Šimátin sin Jozakarja in Šomêrjev sin Jozabád sta ga udarila in je umrl. Pokopali so ga z njegovimi očeti v Davidovem mestu in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Amacjá.
Jozabad son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad son of Shomer, his servants, attacked him, and he died. They buried Joash with his ancestors in the city of David, and Amaziah, his son, became king in his place.
