2 Kraljevima 23
1 Tada kralj posla da se saberu kod njega sve judejske i jeruzalemske starješine.
The king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
2 Kralj potom uzađe u Dom Jahvin s Judejcima, Jeruzalemcima, svećenicima i prorocima i sa svim narodom, od najmanjega do najvećega. I pročita im sve riječi Knjige Saveza koja je nađena u Domu Jahvinu.
The king went up to the house of YHWH, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the scroll of the covenant which was found in the house of YHWH.
3 Kralj, stojeći na svome mjestu, obnovi pred Jahvom Savez da će slijediti Jahvu i držati se njegovih zapovijedi, pouka i uredaba svim srcem i svom dušom da bi ispunio sve stavke toga Saveza zapisane u ovoj knjizi. Sav je narod stupio u Savez.
The king stood by the pillar, and made a covenant before YHWH, to walk after YHWH, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and all his soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this scroll; and all the people stood to the covenant.
4 Kralj je zapovjedio velikom svećeniku Hilkiji, svećenicima drugog reda i čuvarima hramskog praga da iz Svetišta Jahvina iznesu sve bogoslužne predmete što bijahu načinjeni za Baala, za Ašeru i za svu nebesku vojsku. Odredio je da sve to spale izvan Jeruzalema u poljima kidronskim, a pepeo je odnio u Betel.
The king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring forth out of YHWH's temple all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the Asherah, and for all the host of heaven, and he burned them outside of Jerusalem in the fields of the Kidron, and carried their ashes to Bethel.
5 Uklonio je lažne svećenike koje su judejski kraljevi postavili da pale kad na uzvišicama, u gradovima judejskim i u okolici Jeruzalema; i one koji su palili kad Baalu, suncu, mjesecu, zvijezdama i svoj vojsci nebeskoj.
He put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places around Jerusalem; those also who burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
6 Izvan Jeruzalema iznio je iz Doma Jahvina, u dolinu kidronsku, Ašeru i spalio ju je u dolini kidronskoj, satro u prah, a prah bacio na groblje sinova pučkih.
He brought out the Asherah from the house of YHWH, outside of Jerusalem, to the Kidron Valley, and burned it in the Kidron Valley, and beat it to dust, and cast its dust on the graves of the common people.
7 Razorio je stanove posvećenih bludnica koji su bili u Domu Jahvinu i u kojima su žene tkale haljine Ašeri.
He broke down the living quarters of the temple prostitutes, that were in the house of YHWH, where the women wove coverings for the Asherah.
8 Iz svih judejskih gradova doveo je svećenike i oskvrnuo je uzvišice gdje su ti svećenici prinosili kad, od Gebe do Beer Šebe. Zatim je srušio uzvišice pred vratima, one koje su bile na ulazu vrata Jošue, upravitelja grada, nalijevo kad se prilazi gradskim vratima.
He brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba; and he broke down the high places of the gates that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the gate of the city.
9 Isto tako svećenici uzvišica nisu mogli uzlaziti žrtveniku Jahvinu u Jeruzalemu, ali su jeli kruhove bez kvasa među svojom braćom.
Nevertheless the priests of the high places did not come up to the altar of YHWH in Jerusalem, but they ate unleavened bread among their brothers.
10 Oskvrnio je Tofet u dolini Ben Hinom, kako nitko ne bi svoga sina ili kćerku provodio kroz oganj u čast Moleku.
He defiled Topheth, which is in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
11 Razagnao je konje koje su judejski kraljevi prinijeli suncu na ulazu u Dom Jahvin, kraj sobe dvoranina Netan Meleka, koja se nalazila u blizini, i spalio je u ognju sunčana kola.
He took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entrance of the house of YHWH, by the room of Nathan Melech the officer, who was in the court; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12 Žrtvenike na krovu koje bijahu sagradili judejski kraljevi i one koje je sagradio Manaše u oba predvorja Hrama Jahvina, kralj je srušio, uklonio ih odatle i bacio njihov prah u dolinu kidronsku.
The king broke down the altars that were on the roof of the upper room of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of YHWH, and beat them down from there, and cast their dust into the Kidron Valley.
13 Uzvišice koje su bile sučelice Jeruzalemu, na južnom dijelu Maslinske gore, i koje je izraelski kralj Salomon bio sagradio Aštarti, sramoti sidonskoj, Kemošu, sramoti moapskoj, i Milkomu, nakazi amonskoj - sve ih je kralj oskvrnio.
The king defiled the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mountain of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the people of Ammon.
14 Razbio je stupove, iskorijenio ašere i njihova je mjesta ispunio ljudskim kostima.
He broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and filled their places with the bones of men.
15 Isto tako i žrtvenik u Betelu, uzvišicu koju je sagradio Jeroboam, sin Nebatov, koji je naveo Izraela na grijeh, kralj je srušio, oborio žrtvenik i tu uzvišicu, satro kamenje u prah, spalio ašere.
Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he broke down; and he burned the high place and beat it to dust, and burned the Asherah.
16 A kad se Jošija okrenuo i vidio grobove koji bijahu ondje na gori, posla da se sakupe kosti iz onih grobova i spali ih na žrtveniku. Tako ga je oskvrnuo, izvršavajući riječ Jahvinu, koju je objavio čovjek Božji (dok je Jeroboam bio na žrtveniku za vrijeme svečanosti). Okrenuvši se, Jošija baci oči na grob čovjeka Božjeg koji je objavio sve to
And as Josiah turned himself, he saw the tombs that were there in the mountain. And he sent, and took the bones out of the tombs, and burned them on the altar, and defiled it, according to the word of YHWH which the man of God proclaimed, when Jeroboam stood by the altar at the feast. And he turned and raised his eyes to the tomb of the man of God who proclaimed these things.
17 i upita: “Kakav je ono spomenik što ga vidim?” Ljudi iz grada odgovoriše mu: “To je grob čovjeka Božjeg koji je došao iz Judeje i koji je prorekao sve ovo što si ti učinio s betelskim žrtvenikom.”
Then he said, "What monument is that which I see?" The men of the city told him, "It is the tomb of the man of God, who came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that you have done against the altar of Bethel."
18 “Pustite ga na miru”, reče kralj, “i neka nitko ne dira njegove kosti.” Tako su ostale njegove kosti netaknute s kostima proroka koji je došao iz Samarije.
He said, "Let him be. Let no man move his bones." So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
19 Jošija je jednako razorio sve hramove uzvišica koje su izraelski kraljevi sagradili po gradovima Samarije da bi srdili Jahvu i učinio je s njima kao što je učinio u Betelu.
All the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke YHWH to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.
20 Sve svećenike uzvišica poklao je na žrtvenicima; na njima je spalio i ljudske kosti. Potom se vratio u Jeruzalem.
He killed all the priests of the high places that were there, on the altars, and burned men's bones on them; and he returned to Jerusalem.
21 Kralj naredi svemu narodu: “Svetkujte Pashu u čast Jahve, Boga svoga, po običaju koji je zapisan u ovoj Knjizi Saveza.”
The king commanded all the people, saying, "Keep the Passover to YHWH your God, as it is written in this scroll of the covenant."
22 Takva se Pasha nije svetkovala od vremena sudaca koji su sudili Izraelu i za sve vrijeme kraljeva izraelskih i judejskih.
Surely there was not kept such a Passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
23 Samo je osamnaeste godine kraljevanja Jošijina svetkovana takva Pasha u čast Jahve, u Jeruzalemu.
but in the eighteenth year of king Josiah was this Passover kept to YHWH in Jerusalem.
24 Osim toga, sve bajače i sve vračare, sve kućne bogove i idole i sve sramote koje se mogu vidjeti u zemlji judejskoj i Jeruzalemu - sve je to Jošija uklonio da izvrši riječi Zakona, zapisane u knjizi koju je našao Hilkija, svećenik Doma Jahvina.
Moreover Josiah removed the mediums, and spiritists, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the scroll that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of YHWH.
25 Nije bilo prije njega takva kralja koji se obratio Jahvi svim srcem svojim, svom dušom svojom i svom snagom svojom, u svemu vjeran Zakonu Mojsijevu, a ni poslije njega nije mu bilo ravna.
Like him was there no king before him, who turned to YHWH with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
26 Ipak Jahve nije odustao od plamena svoga velikoga gnjeva kojim je uskipio protiv Judejaca zbog svih izazova kojima ga je Manaše ljutio.
Notwithstanding, YHWH did not turn from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocation with which Manasseh had provoked him.
27 Jahve je odlučio: “Maknut ću Judejce ispred sebe kao što sam maknuo Izraela; odbacit ću ovaj grad koji sam izabrao, Jeruzalem, i Dom o kojem rekoh: 'Tu će biti Ime moje.'”
YHWH said, "I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and I will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, 'My name shall be there.'"
28 Ostala povijest Jošijina i sve što je učinio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa judejskih kraljeva?
Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 U njegvo je vrijeme faraon Neko, egipatski kralj, krenuo protiv asirskoga kralja na rijeci Eufratu. Kralj Jošija pošao je preda nj, ali ga on ubi u Megidu, pri prvom susretu.
In his days Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Perath: and king Josiah went against him; and Pharaoh Necoh killed him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
30 Sluge njegove prenesoše mu tijelo kolima iz Megida, odvezoše ga u Jeruzalem i sahraniše u njegovoj grobnici. Sav narod zemlje primi Joahaza, sina Jošijina; pomazaše ga i proglasiše kraljem namjesto njegova oca.
His servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. The people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's place.
31 Joahazu bijahu dvadeset i tri godine kad se zakraljio. Kraljevao je tri mjeseca u Jeruzalemu. Njegova se majka zvala Hamitah, kći Jeremije, i bila je iz Libne.
Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32 On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što su činili oci njegovi.
He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 Faraon Neko bacio ga je u okove u Ribli, na području Hamata, da ne vlada u Jeruzalemu i udario je na zemlju danak od stotinu talenata srebra i deset talenata zlata.
Pharaoh Necoh put him in bonds at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of one hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
34 Faraon Neko postavio je za kralja Elijakima, sina Jošijina, na mjesto njegova oca Jošije. I ime mu je promijenio u Jojakim. A Joahaza je uzeo i odveo u Egipat te on umrije ondje.
Pharaoh Necoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the place of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim: but he took Jehoahaz away; and he came to Egypt, and died there.
35 Jojakim je dao faraonu srebro i zlato, ali je nametnuo zemlji porez da bi smogao svotu koju je faraon zahtijevao. Svakome je nametnuo prema njegovu stanju, uzimao srebro i zlato koje je morao davati faraonu Neku.
Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of everyone according to his taxation, to give it to Pharaoh Necoh.
36 Jojakimu je bilo dvadeset i pet godina kad je postao kraljem i kraljevao je jedanaest godina u Jeruzalemu. Materi mu je bilo ime Zebida, kći Pedajina, i bila je iz Rume.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Zebidah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, sve kao što su činili i oci njegovi.
He did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, according to all that his fathers had done.
