2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah, of Beersheba.
Bijaše Joasu sedam godina kad se zacari, i carova èetrdeset godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Sivija iz Virsaveje.
2 Joash did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
I èinjaše Joas što je pravo pred Gospodom dokle god bijaše živ Jodaj sveštenik.
3 Jehoiada took for him two wives, and he became the father of sons and daughters.
I Jodaj ga oženi dvjema ženama, te rodi sinove i kæeri.
4 After this, Joash intended to restore the LORD’s house.
Potom Joas naumi da opravi dom Gospodnji.
5 He gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, “Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather money to repair the house of your God from all Israel from year to year. See that you expedite this matter.” However the Levites did not do it right away.
I sazva sveštenike i Levite, pa im reèe: poðite po gradovima Judinijem i kupite od svega Izrailja novaca da se opravlja dom Boga vašega od godine do godine, i vi pohitajte s tijem. Ali ne hitješe Leviti.
6 The king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said to him, “Why have not you required of the Levites to bring in the tax of Moses the servant of the LORD, and of the assembly of Israel, out of Judah and out of Jerusalem, for the Tent of the Testimony?”
Zato car dozva Jodaja poglavara i reèe mu: zašto ne nastojiš da Leviti donose iz Judeje i Jerusalima priloge koje je naredio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji zboru Izrailjevu na šator od sastanka?
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up God’s house; and they also gave all the dedicated things of the LORD’s house to the Baals.
Jer bezbožna Gotolija i sinovi njezini oplijeniše dom Gospodnji i sve stvari posveæene domu Gospodnjemu obratiše na Vale.
8 So the king commanded, and they made a chest, and set it outside at the gate of the LORD’s house.
I tako zapovjedi car te naèiniše kovèeg, i metnuše ga na vrata doma Gospodnjega spolja.
9 They made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in for the LORD the tax that Moses the servant of God laid on Israel in the wilderness.
I oglasiše po Judeji i po Jerusalimu da donose Gospodu prilog koji je naredio Mojsije sluga Božji Izrailju u pustinji.
10 All the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had filled it.
I obradovaše se knezovi i sav narod, i donoseæi metahu u kovèeg dokle se ne svrši.
11 Whenever the chest was brought to the king’s officers by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s scribe and the chief priest’s officer came and emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to its place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
I kad donošahu Leviti kovèeg po zapovijesti carevoj, vidjevši da ima mnogo novaca, dolažaše pisar carev i poslanik poglavara sveštenièkoga, te izruèivahu kovèeg, potom ga opet odnošahu i ostavljahu na njegovo mjesto; i tako èinjahu svaki dan, i nakupiše mnogo novaca.
12 The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the LORD’s house. They hired masons and carpenters to restore the LORD’s house, and also those who worked iron and bronze to repair the LORD’s house.
I davaše ga car Jodaj nastojnicima nad poslom oko doma Gospodnjega, a oni naimahu kamenare i drvodjelje da se obnovi dom Gospodnji, i kovaèe koji rade od gvožða i od mjedi, da se opravi dom Gospodnji.
13 So the workmen worked, and the work of repairing went forward in their hands. They set up God’s house as it was designed, and strengthened it.
I poslovahu poslenici, i opravljanje napredovaše pod njihovijem rukama, te povratiše domu Božijemu oblièje njegovo, i utvrdiše ga.
14 When they had finished, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, from which were made vessels for the LORD’s house, even vessels with which to minister and to offer, including spoons and vessels of gold and silver. They offered burnt offerings in the LORD’s house continually all the days of Jehoiada.
A kad svršiše, donesoše pred cara i Jodaja novce što pretekoše; i od toga naèini sudove za dom Gospodnji, sudove za službu i za žrtve, i kadionice, i druge sudove zlatne i srebrne. I tako prinošahu žrtve paljenice u domu Gospodnjem jednako svega vijeka Jodajeva.
15 But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died. He was one hundred thirty years old when he died.
Potom ostarjevši Jodaj sit života umrije; sto i trideset godina bješe mu kad umrije.
16 They buried him in David’s city among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
I pogreboše ga u gradu Davidovu kod careva; jer èinjaše dobro Izrailju i Bogu i domu njegovu.
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada, the princes of Judah came and bowed down to the king. Then the king listened to them.
A kad umrije Jodaj, doðoše knezovi Judini i pokloniše se caru; tada ih posluša car,
18 They abandoned the house of the LORD, the God of their fathers, and served the Asherah poles and the idols, so wrath came on Judah and Jerusalem for this their guiltiness.
Te ostaviše dom Gospoda Boga otaca svojih, i stadoše služiti lugovima i idolima; i podiže se gnjev Gospodnji na Judu i na Jerusalim za taj grijeh njihov.
19 Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again to the LORD, and they testified against them; but they would not listen.
I slaše im proroke da ih vrate ka Gospodu, i oni im svedoèahu, ali ih ne poslušaše.
20 The Spirit of God came on Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest; and he stood above the people, and said to them, “God says, ‘Why do you disobey the LORD’s commandments, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, he has also forsaken you.’”
I doðe duh Gospodnji na Zahariju sina Jodaja sveštenika, te stade više naroda i reèe im: ovako veli Bog: zašto prestupate zapovijesti Gospodnje? neæete biti sreæni; što ostaviste Gospoda, zato i on vas ostavi.
21 They conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the LORD’s house.
A oni se pobuniše na nj, i zasuše ga kamenjem po zapovijesti carevoj u trijemu doma Gospodnjega.
22 Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. When he died, he said, “May the LORD look at it, and repay it.”
I ne opomenu se Joas milosti koju mu uèini Jodaj otac njegov, nego ubi sina njegova; a on umiruæi reèe: Gospod neka vidi i traži.
23 At the end of the year, the army of the Syrians came up against him. They came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all their plunder to the king of Damascus.
A kad proðe godina, podiže se na nj vojska Sirska i uðe u zemlju Judejsku i u Jerusalim, i pobiše po narodu sve knezove narodne, i sav plijen od njih poslaše caru u Damasak.
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; and the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers. So they executed judgment on Joash.
Ako i mala bješe vojska Sirska koja doðe, ipak Gospod dade u ruke njihove vrlo veliku vojsku, jer bjehu ostavili Gospoda Boga otaca svojih. I tako na Joasu izvršiše sud.
25 When they had departed from him (for they left him seriously wounded), his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died. They buried him in David’s city, but they did not bury him in the tombs of the kings.
A kad otidoše od njega ostavivši ga u teškoj bolesti, pobuniše se na nj sluge njegove za krv sinova Jodaja sveštenika, i ubiše ga na postelji njegovoj, te pogibe; i pogreboše ga u gradu Davidovu, ali ga ne pogreboše u grobovima carskim.
26 These are those who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.
A ovo su što se pobuniše na nj: Zavad sin Simeate Amonke i Jozavad sin Simrite Moavke.
27 Now concerning his sons, the greatness of the burdens laid on him, and the rebuilding of God’s house, behold, they are written in the commentary of the book of the kings. Amaziah his son reigned in his place.
A o sinovima njegovijem i o velikoj porezi što bi pod njim, i o graðenju doma Božijega, eto zapisano je u knjizi o carevima. A zacari se na njegovo mjesto Amasija sin njegov.
