2 Kralji 22
1 Jošíja je bil star osem let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval enaintrideset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Jedída, hči Adajája iz Bockáta.
Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem thirty-one years. His mother’s name was Jedidah daughter of Adaiah; she was from Bozkath.
2 Delal je to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh in hodil po vsej poti svojega očeta Davida in se ni obrnil vstran k desni roki ali k levi.
And he did what was right in the eyes of the LORD and walked in all the ways of his father David; he did not turn aside to the right or to the left.
3 V osemnajstem letu kralja Jošíja se je pripetilo, da je kralj poslal Šafána, Acaljájevega sina, Mešulámovega sina, pisarja, h Gospodovi hiši, rekoč:
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, King Josiah sent the scribe, Shaphan son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, to the house of the LORD, saying,
4 »Pojdi gor k vélikemu duhovniku Hilkijáju, da bo lahko preštel srebro, ki je bilo prineseno v Gospodovo hišo, ki so ga čuvaji vrat zbrali od ljudstva
“Go up to Hilkiah the high priest and have him count the money that has been brought into the house of the LORD, which the doorkeepers have collected from the people.
5 in naj ga izročijo v roko izvajalcem dela, ki imajo nadzor nad Gospodovo hišo, in naj ga dajo izvajalcem dela, ki je v Gospodovi hiši, da popravijo vrzeli hiše;
And let them deliver it into the hands of the supervisors of those doing the work on the house of the LORD, who in turn are to give it to the workmen repairing the damages to the house of the LORD—
6 tesarjem, graditeljem in zidarjem, da kupijo lesa in klesanega kamna, da popravijo hišo.«
to the carpenters, builders, and masons—to buy timber and dressed stone to repair the temple.
7 Vendar ni bilo z njimi narejenega nobenega obračuna o denarju, ki je bil izročen v njihovo roko, ker so zvesto postopali.
But they need not account for the money put into their hands, since they work with integrity.”
8 Véliki duhovnik Hilkijá je pisarju Šafánu rekel: »V Gospodovi hiši sem našel knjigo postave.« Hilkijá je knjigo izročil Šafánu in ta jo je prebral.
Then Hilkiah the high priest said to Shaphan the scribe, “I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the LORD!” And he gave it to Shaphan, who read it.
9 Pisar Šafán je prišel h kralju in kralju ponovno prinesel besedo ter rekel: »Tvoji služabniki so zbrali denar, ki je bil najden v hiši in ga izročili v roko tistih, ki opravljajo delo, ki imajo nadzor nad Gospodovo hišo.«
And Shaphan the scribe went to the king and reported, “Your servants have paid out the money that was found in the temple and have put it into the hands of the workers and supervisors of the house of the LORD.”
10 Pisar Šafán je kralju pokazal, rekoč: »Duhovnik Hilkijá mi je izročil knjigo.« In Šafán jo je bral pred kraljem.
Moreover, Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” And Shaphan read it in the presence of the king.
11 Pripetilo se je, ko je kralj slišal besede iz knjige postave, da je pretrgal svoja oblačila.
When the king heard the words of the Book of the Law, he tore his clothes
12 Kralj je ukazal duhovniku Hilkijáju, Šafánovemu sinu Ahikámu, Ahbórju, sinu Mihajá, pisarju Šafánu in kraljevemu služabniku Asajáju, rekoč:
and commanded Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Achbor son of Micaiah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah the servant of the king:
13 »Pojdite, poizvedite od Gospoda zame in za ljudstvo in za vsega Juda glede besed te knjige, ki je najdena, kajti velik je Gospodov bes, ki je vžgan zoper nas, ker naši očetje niso prisluhnili besedam te knjige, da bi storili glede na vse, kar je napisano glede nas.«
“Go and inquire of the LORD for me, for the people, and for all Judah concerning the words in this book that has been found. For great is the wrath of the LORD that burns against us because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book by doing all that is written about us.”
14 Tako so duhovnik Hilkijá, Ahikám, Ahbór, Šafán in Asajá odšli k prerokinji Huldi, ženi Šalúma, Tikvájevega sina, Harhásovega sina, varuha garderobe (torej prebivala je v Jeruzalemu, v drugem okraju) in se posvetovali z njo.
So Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Achbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went and spoke to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, the keeper of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the Second District.
15 Rekla jim je: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Povejte možu, ki vas je poslal k meni,
And Huldah said to them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Tell the man who sent you
16 tako govori Gospod: ›Glejte, nad ta kraj in nad njegove prebivalce bom privedel zlo, celó vse besede knjige, ki jo je bral Judov kralj,
that this is what the LORD says: I am about to bring calamity on this place and on its people, according to all the words of the book that the king of Judah has read,
17 ker so zapustili mene in zažigali kadilo drugim bogovom, da bi me lahko izzivali k jezi z vsemi deli svojih rok. Zato bo moj bes vnet zoper ta kraj in ne bo pogašen.
because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be kindled against this place and will not be quenched.’
18 Toda Judovemu kralju, ki vas je poslal, da povprašate od Gospoda, boste rekli tako: ›Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: › Glede besed, ki si jih slišal;
But as for the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, tell him that this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘As for the words that you heard,
19 ker je bilo tvoje srce nežno in si se ponižal pred Gospodom, ko si slišal kaj sem govoril zoper ta kraj in zoper njegove prebivalce, da naj bi postali opustošenje in prekletstvo in si pretrgal svoja oblačila in jokal pred menoj, sem te tudi jaz uslišal, govori Gospod.
because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before the LORD when you heard what I spoke against this place and against its people, that they would become a desolation and a curse, and because you have torn your clothes and wept before Me, I have heard you,’ declares the LORD.
20 Glej torej, zbral te bom k tvojim očetom in v miru boš zbran v svoj grob in tvoje oči ne bodo videle vsega zla, ki ga bom privedel na ta kraj.‹« In kralju so ponovno prinesli besedo.
‘Therefore I will indeed gather you to your fathers, and you will be gathered to your grave in peace. Your eyes will not see all the calamity that I will bring on this place.’” So they brought her answer back to the king.
