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 began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.

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 that which was right in the sight of YHWH, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand 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:

And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of YHWH, 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, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of YHWH, which the keepers of the door have gathered of 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 hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of YHWH: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of YHWH, to repair the breaches of the house,

6 tesarjem, graditeljem in zidarjem, da kupijo lesa in klesanega kamna, da popravijo hišo.«

Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.

7 Vendar ni bilo z njimi narejenega nobenega obračuna o denarju, ki je bil izročen v njihovo roko, ker so zvesto postopali.

Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.

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.

And Hilkiah the high priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of YHWH. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he 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 came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of YHWH.

10 Pisar Šafán je kralju pokazal, rekoč: »Duhovnik Hilkijá mi je izročil knjigo.« In Šafán jo je bral pred kraljem.

And Shaphan the scribe shewed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.

11 Pripetilo se je, ko je kralj slišal besede iz knjige postave, da je pretrgal svoja oblačila.

And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.

12 Kralj je ukazal duhovniku Hilkijáju, Šafánovemu sinu Ahikámu, Ahbórju, sinu Mihajá, pisarju Šafánu in kraljevemu služabniku Asajáju, rekoč:

And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah a servant of the king's, saying,

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 ye, inquire of YHWH for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of YHWH that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning 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, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college; ) and they communed with her.

15 Rekla jim je: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Povejte možu, ki vas je poslal k meni,

And she said unto them, Thus saith YHWH Elohim of Israel, Tell the man that sent you to me,

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,

Thus saith YHWH, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath 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 have burned incense unto other elohim, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall 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 to the king of Judah which sent you to inquire of YHWH, thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith YHWH Elohim of Israel, As touching the words which thou hast 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 thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before YHWH, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith YHWH.

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.

Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
