II Chronicles 28

Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: but he did not that which was right in the sight of the LORD, like David his father:

Ahazu je bilo dvadeset godina kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je šesnaest godina u Jeruzalemu, ali nije činio što je pravo u Jahvinim očima kao što je činio njegov otac David.

For he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for Baalim.

Živio je poput izraelskih kraljeva, pa je i likove salio baalima.

Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, after the abominations of the heathen whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel.

Sam je prinosio kad u dolini Hinomova sina i proveo vlastite sinove kroz oganj, po gnusnom običaju krivobožačkih naroda što ih je Jahve protjerao pred Izraelovim sinovima.

He sacrificed also and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

Prinosio je žrtve i kadio po uzvišicama i brežuljcima i pod svakim zelenim drvetom.

Wherefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria; and they smote him, and carried away a great multitude of them captives, and brought them to Damascus. And he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who smote him with a great slaughter.

Zato ga Jahve, njegov Bog, predade u ruke aramejskom kralju te ga on potuče, zarobi mu veliko mnoštvo ljudi i odvede ih u Damask. Još je bio predan u ruke izraelskom kralju koji ga je hametice porazio.

For Pekah the son of Remaliah slew in Judah an hundred and twenty thousand in one day, which were all valiant men; because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers.

Remalijin je sin Pekah pobio među Judejcima sto dvadeset tisuća hrabrih junaka u jedan dan, jer su bili ostavili Jahvu, Boga svojih otaca.

And Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, slew Maaseiah the king's son, and Azrikam the governor of the house, and Elkanah that was next to the king.

A junak od Efrajimova plemena Zikri pogubio je kraljeva sina Maaseju i dvorskoga upravitelja Azrikama i Elkanu, drugoga do kralja.

And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand, women, sons, and daughters, and took also away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.

Izraelovi su sinovi zarobili od svoje braće dvjesta tisuća žena, sinova i kćeri, a zadobili su i silan plijen od njih i odnijeli ga u Samariju.

But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name was Oded: and he went out before the host that came to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because the LORD God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he hath delivered them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage that reacheth up unto heaven.

Ondje bijaše Jahvin prorok po imenu Oded; izašao on pred vojsku što je išla u Samariju i rekao: "Gle, Jahve, Bog vaših otaca, razjario se na Judejce i zato ih je predao u vaše ruke te ste ih gnjevno pobili da je do neba doprlo.

And now ye purpose to keep under the children of Judah and Jerusalem for bondmen and bondwomen unto you: but are there not with you, even with you, sins against the LORD your God?

A sada još mislite podjarmiti Judejce i Jeruzalemce da vam budu robovi i robinje; a ipak, niste li i vi puni krivice prema Jahvi, svome Bogu?

Now hear me therefore, and deliver the captives again, which ye have taken captive of your brethren: for the fierce wrath of the LORD is upon you.

Zato me poslušajte sada i vratite to roblje što ga zarobiste od svoje braće, jer će se izliti na vas Jahvin gnjev."

Then certain of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, and Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against them that came from the war,

Tada ustadoše neki između glavara Efrajimovih sinova, i to Johananov sin Azarja, Mešilemotov sin Berekja i Šalumov sin Ezekija, Hadlajev sin Amasa, na one što su se vraćali s vojske.

And said unto them, Ye shall not bring in the captives hither: for whereas we have offended against the LORD already, ye intend to add more to our sins and to our trespass: for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel.

Pa im rekoše: "Nemojte dovoditi ovamo toga roblja, jer, uz krivicu koja je na nama pred Jahvom, vi mislite još dometnuti na naše grijehe i na našu krivicu, kao da nije dosta velika naša krivica i jarosni gnjev na Izraelu."

So the armed men left the captives and the spoil before the princes and all the congregation.

Tada ostaviše ratnici roblje i plijen pred knezovima i svim zborom.

And the men which were expressed by name rose up, and took the captives, and with the spoil clothed all that were naked among them, and arrayed them, and shod them, and gave them to eat and to drink, and anointed them, and carried all the feeble of them upon asses, and brought them to Jericho, the city of palm trees, to their brethren: then they returned to Samaria.

Onda su poimence prozvani ljudi ustali, osokolili robove, obukli sve gole u odjeću iz plijena; a kad su ih obukli, obuli, nahranili, napojili i namazali, poveli su na magarcima sve iznemogle i odveli ih u palmov grad Jerihon do njihove braće, a potom se vratili u Samariju.

At that time did king Ahaz send unto the kings of Assyria to help him.

U to je doba kralj Ahaz zamolio asirske kraljeve da mu pomognu.

For again the Edomites had come and smitten Judah, and carried away captives.

Edomci bijahu opet navalili i porazili Judejce te ih odveli u roblje.

The Philistines also had invaded the cities of the low country, and of the south of Judah, and had taken Beth–shemesh, and Ajalon, and Gederoth, and Shocho with the villages thereof, and Timnah with the villages thereof, Gimzo also and the villages thereof: and they dwelt there.

Filistejci se raširili po gradovima Judejske Šefele i Negeba i, zauzevši Bet-Šemeš, Ajalon, Gederot i Soko sa selima, Timnu sa selima i Gimzo sa selima, nastanili se ondje.

For the LORD brought Judah low because of Ahaz king of Israel; for he made Judah naked, and transgressed sore against the LORD.

Jahve je počeo ponižavati Judejce zbog judejskoga kralja Ahaza, jer je Ahaz razuzdao Judejce i teško se iznevjerio Jahvi.

And Tilgath–pilneser king of Assyria came unto him, and distressed him, but strengthened him not.

Došao je na nj asirski kralj Tiglat-Pileser i pritijesnio ga umjesto da ga utvrdi.

For Ahaz took away a portion out of the house of the LORD, and out of the house of the king, and of the princes, and gave it unto the king of Assyria: but he helped him not.

Ahaz bijaše opljačkao Jahvin Dom, kraljevski dvor i knezove, i sve to dao asirskom kralju, ali mu ništa nije pomoglo.

And in the time of his distress did he trespass yet more against the LORD: this is that king Ahaz.

Dok je bio u nevolji, postao je još nevjerniji Jahvi; takav je bio kralj Ahaz.

For he sacrificed unto the gods of Damascus, which smote him: and he said, Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, therefore will I sacrifice to them, that they may help me. But they were the ruin of him, and of all Israel.

Počeo je žrtvovati damaščanskim bogovima koji su ga porazili, misleći: "Kad bogovi aramejskih kraljeva njima pomažu, žrtvovat ću im da bi i meni pomagali." Ali su oni bili na propast njemu i svem Izraelu.

And Ahaz gathered together the vessels of the house of God, and cut in pieces the vessels of the house of God, and shut up the doors of the house of the LORD, and he made him altars in every corner of Jerusalem.

Ahaz je pokupio posuđe iz Božjega Doma, slupao ga, zatvorio vrata Jahvina Doma i podigao žrtvenike po svim uglovima u Jeruzalemu.

And in every several city of Judah he made high places to burn incense unto other gods, and provoked to anger the LORD God of his fathers.

I u svakom je pojedinom judejskom gradu podigao uzvišice da kadi tuđim bogovima, dražeći Jahvu, Boga otaca.

Now the rest of his acts and of all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

Ostala su njegova djela i svi njegovi putovi, od prvih do posljednjih, zapisani u Knjizi o judejskim i izraelskim kraljevima.

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city, even in Jerusalem: but they brought him not into the sepulchres of the kings of Israel: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

Onda je Ahaz počinuo kod otaca. Sahranili su ga u Gradu, u Jeruzalemu, ali ga nisu unijeli u grobnicu judejskih kraljeva. Na njegovo se mjesto zakraljio sin mu Ezekija.
