Chronicles II 33
1 Manasses was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.
Manašeu je bilo dvanaest godina kad se zakraljio. Pedeset i pet godina kraljevao je u Jeruzalemu.
2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all the abominations of the heathen, whom the Lord destroyed from before the face of the children of Israel.
Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, povodeći se za gnusobama naroda što ih je Jahve protjerao pred sinovima Izraelovim.
3 And he returned and built the high places, which his father Ezekias had pulled down, and set up images to Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
Obnovio je uzvišice što ih bijaše oborio otac mu Ezekija, podigao je žrtvenike Baalu, načinio ašere i stao se klanjati svoj nebeskoj vojsci i služiti joj.
4 And he built altars in the house of the Lord, concerning which the Lord said, In Jerusalem shall be my name for ever.
Podigao je žrtvenike i u Domu Jahvinu, za koji bijaše rekao Jahve: “U Jeruzalemu će prebivati Ime moje zauvijek.”
5 And he built altars to all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the Lord.
Sagradio je žrtvenike svoj nebeskoj vojsci u oba predvorja Doma Jahvina.
6 He also passed his children through the fire in the valley of Benennom; and he divined, and used auspices, and sorceries, and appointed those who had divining spirits, and enchanters, and wrought abundant wickedness before the Lord, to provoke him.
I sinove je svoje proveo kroz oganj u dolini Hinomova sina. Vračao je, gatao, čarao, stvorio bajače i opsjenare i uopće učinio premnogo zla u Jahvinim očima razjarujući ga.
7 And he set the graven [image], the molten [statue], the idol which he made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put my name for ever;
Načinio je idolski lik i posadio ga u Domu Božjem, za koji Bog bijaše rekao Davidu i njegovu sinu Salomonu: “U ovom Domu i u Jeruzalemu, koji sam izabrao među svim izraelskim plemenima, postavit ću Ime svoje zauvijek.
8 and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I gave to their fathers, if only they will take heed to do all things which I have commanded them, according to all the law and the ordinances and the judgements [given] by the hand of Moses.
Neću više dati da noga Izraelaca uzmakne iz zemlje koju sam dao u baštinu vašim očevima, samo ako budu držali i provodili u djelo sve što sam im zapovjedio: sav Zakon, uredbe i običaje dane preko Mojsija.”
9 So Manasses led astray Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to do evil beyond all the nations which the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel.
Ali je Manaše zaveo Judejce i Jeruzalemce te su radili još gore nego narodi što ih je Jahve iskorijenio pred sinovima Izraelovim.
10 And the Lord spoke to Manasses, and to his people: but they listened not.
Jahve je opominjao Manašea i njegov narod, ali oni nisu poslušali.
11 And the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, and they took Manasses in bonds, and bound him in fetters, and brought him to Babylon.
Stoga je Jahve doveo na njih vojskovođe asirskoga kralja. Uhvativši Manašea kukama, svezali su ga u dvoje mjedene verige i odveli u Babilon.
12 And when he was afflicted, he sought the face of the Lord his God, and was greatly humbled before the face of the God of his fathers;
Kad se našao u nevolji, počeo se moliti za milost Jahvi, svome Bogu, ponizivši se veoma pred Bogom otaca.
13 and he prayed to him: and he listened to him, and listened to his cry, and brought him back to Jerusalem to his kingdom: and Manasses knew that the Lord he is God.
Molio se i Bog mu se smilovao te usliša njegovu prošnju i vrati ga u Jeruzalem u kraljevstvo. Manaše tada spozna da je Jahve Bog.
14 And afterward he built a wall without the city of David, from the southwest southward in the valleys and at the entrance through the fish-gate, as men go out by the gate round about, even as far as Opel: and he raised it much, and set captains of the host in all the fortified cities in Juda.
Poslije toga sagradio je vanjski zid Davidovu gradu zapadno od Gihona, od doline pa do Ribljih vrata, i opasao zidom Ofel, izvevši ga vrlo visoko. Postavio je bojne vojvode u svim tvrdim gradovima u Judi.
15 And he removed the strange gods, and the graven [image] out of the house of the Lord, and all the altars which he had built in the mount of the house of the Lord, and in Jerusalem, and without the city.
Osim toga, uklonio je iz Jahvina Doma tuđinske bogove, onaj idolski lik i sve žrtvenike što ih bijaše posagradio na gori Jahvina Doma i u Jeruzalemu i sve ih baci izvan grada.
16 And he repaired the altar of the Lord, and offered upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering and thank-offering, and he told Juda to serve the Lord God of Israel.
Zatim opet podiže Jahvin žrtvenik i žrtvova na njemu žrtve pričesnice i zahvalnice. Zapovjedi i Judejcima da služe Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu.
17 Nevertheless the people still sacrificed on the high places, only to the Lord their God.
Ipak je narod još žrtvovao po uzvišicama, ali samo Jahvi, svojem Bogu.
18 And the rest of the acts of Manasses, and his prayer to God, and the words of the seers that spoke to him in the name of the God of Israel,
Ostala Manašeova djela i njegova molitva Bogu, riječi koje su mu govorili vidioci u ime Jahve, Izraelova Boga, zapisane su u Povijesti izraelskih kraljeva.
19 behold, [they are] in the account of his prayer; and [God] listened to him. And all his sins, and his backslidings, and the spots on which he built the high places, and set there groves and graven images, before he repented, behold, they are written in the books of the seers.
Njegova molitva i kako je bio uslišan, svi njegovi grijesi i njegova nevjera te mjesta na kojima je pogradio uzvišice, podigao ašere i idole prije nego što se ponizio - sve je to zapisano u povijesti Hozajevoj.
20 And Manasses slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the garden of his house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
Tada Manaše počinu kraj svojih otaca. Sahranili su ga u dvoru. Na njegovo se mjesto zakraljio sim mu Amon.
21 Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.
Dvadeset su i dvije godine bile Amonu kad se zakraljio, a kraljevao je dvije godine u Jeruzalemu.
22 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his father Manasses did: and Amon sacrificed to all the idols which his father Manasses had made, and served them.
Činio je što je zlo u Jahvinim očima, kao i otac mu Manaše, jer je svim idolima koje bijaše načinio njegov otac Manaše on prinosio žrtve i služio im.
23 And he was not humbled before the Lord as his father Manasses was humbled; for his son Amon abounded in transgression.
Ali se nije ponizio pred Jahvom kako se ponizio otac mu Manaše, nego je još i umnožio svoju krivicu.
24 And his servants conspired against him, and killed him in his house.
Tada se protiv njega urotiše njegove sluge i ubiše ga u dvoru.
25 And the people of the land killed the men who had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josias his son king in his stead.
Ali je prosti puk pobio sve one koji se bijahu urotili protiv kralja Amona i na njegovo mjesto zakraljio sina mu Jošiju.
