2 Kings 12
1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Jehoash reigned. And he reigned for forty years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Zebiah from Beersheba.
V sedmem letu Jehúja je Joáš začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval štirideset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Cibjá iz Beeršébe.
2 And Jehoash did what was right in the sight of the Lord, during all the days that Jehoiada, the priest, taught him.
Joáš je delal to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, vse svoje dni, ko ga je duhovnik Jojadá poučeval.
3 Yet still he did not take away the high places. For the people were still immolating, and burning incense, in the high places.
Toda visoki kraji niso bili odstranjeni. Ljudstvo je še vedno žrtvovalo in zažigalo kadilo na visokih krajih.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests: “All of the money for the holy things, which has been brought into the temple of the Lord from those who pass by, which is offered for the price of a soul, and which they bring into the temple of the Lord willingly, from their own free heart:
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,
5 let the priests, according to their ranks, take and use it in order to repair the surfaces of the house, wherever they see anything in need of repair.”
naj ga duhovniki vzamejo k sebi, vsak človek od svojega znanca in naj popravijo vrzeli hiše, kjerkoli bi se našla kakršnakoli vrzel.«
6 And yet, even until the twenty-third year of king Jehoash, the priests did not repair the surfaces of the temple.
Toda bilo je tako, da v triindvajsetem letu kralja Joáša, duhovniki niso popravili vrzeli hiše.
7 And king Jehoash called the high priest, Jehoiada, and the priests, saying to them: “Why have you not repaired the surfaces of the temple? Therefore, you may no longer accept money according to your ranks. Instead, return it in order that the temple may be repaired.”
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.«
8 And so the priests were prohibited from accepting any more money from the people to repair the surfaces of the house.
Duhovniki so privolili, da od ljudstva ne sprejmejo nič več denarja niti za popravilo hišnih vrzeli.
9 And the high priest, Jehoiada, took a certain chest, and he opened a hole in the top, and he placed it beside the altar, to the right of those who were entering the house of the Lord. And the priests who kept the doors put all the money in it which was being brought into the temple of the Lord.
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.
10 And when they saw that there was a great amount of money in the chest, the scribe of the king and the high priest went up and poured it out. And they counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord.
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.
11 And they gave it out, by number and measure, to the hands of those who were over the masons of the house of the Lord. And they weighed it out to the carpenters and masons, to those who were working in the house of the Lord
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,
12 and restoring the surfaces, and to those who were cutting stones, and buying timber and stones to be cut, so that the repairs to the house of the Lord might be finished: for all that was needed toward the expenses in order to strengthen the house.
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.
13 Yet truly, from the same money, they did not make for the temple of the Lord water pitchers, or small hooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold or silver, from the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord.
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,
14 For it was given to those who were doing the work, so that the temple of the Lord might be repaired.
temveč so ga dali delavcem in z njim popravljali Gospodovo hišo.
15 And they did not ration the money to the men who received it in order to distribute it to the artisans. Instead, they bestowed it with faith.
Poleg tega niso delali obračuna z možmi, v čigar roko so izročili denar, da bi bil podeljen delavcem, kajti postopali so zvesto.
16 Yet truly, the money for offenses and the money for sins, they did not bring into the temple of the Lord, since it was for the priests.
Denar za prekršek in denar za greh ni bil prinesen v Gospodovo hišo. Ta je pripadal duhovnikom.
17 Then Hazael, the king of Syria, ascended and fought against Gath, and he captured it. And he directed his face, so that he might ascend against Jerusalem.
Potem je sirski kralj Hazaél odšel gor, se boril zoper Gat, ga zavzel in Hazaél je svoj obraz nameril, da gre gor do Jeruzalema.
18 For this reason, Jehoash, the king of Judah, took all the sanctified things, which Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, the kings of Judah, had consecrated and which he himself had offered, and all the silver that could be found in the treasuries of the temple of the Lord and in the palace of the king, and he sent it to Hazael, the king of Syria. And so he withdrew from Jerusalem.
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.
19 Now the rest of the words of Jehoash, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
Ostala Joaševa dela in vse, kar je storil, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Judovih kraljev?
20 Then his servants rose up and conspired among themselves. And they struck down Jehoash, at the house of Millo, on the descent of Silla.
Njegova služabnika pa sta vstala, skovala zaroto in Joáša usmrtila v Milójevi hiši, ki gre dol do Sila.
21 For Jozacar, the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, struck him, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the city of David. And Amaziah, his son, reigned in his place.
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.
