2 Kings 23
1 And they reported to the king what she had said. And he sent, and all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem were gathered to him.
Тада посла цар, те се скупише к њему све старешине Јудине и јерусалимске.
2 And the king ascended to the temple of the Lord. And with him were all the men of Judah and all who were living in Jerusalem: the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, from the small to the great. And in the hearing of everyone, he read all the words of the book of the covenant, which was found in the house of the Lord.
И отиде цар у дом Господњи и с њим сви људи из земљи Јудине и сви Јерусалимљани и свештеници и пророци и сав народ, мало и велико, и прочита им све речи књиге заветне, која се нађе у дому Господњем.
3 And the king stood upon the step. And he struck a covenant before the Lord, so that they would walk after the Lord, and keep his precepts and testimonies and ceremonies, with all their heart and with all their soul, and so that they would carry out the words of this covenant, which had been written in that book. And the people agreed to the covenant.
И цар стојећи код ступа учини завет пред Господом да ће они ићи за Господом и држати заповести Његове и сведочанства Његова и уредбе Његове свим срцем и свом душом, вршећи речи тог завета написане у тој књизи. И сав народ приста на завет.
4 And the king instructed Hilkiah, the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the doorkeepers, so that they would cast out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels which had been made for Baal, and for the sacred grove, and for the entire army of heaven. And he burned them outside of Jerusalem, in the steep valley of Kidron. And he carried their dust into Bethel.
Тада заповеди цар Хелкији, поглавару свештеничком и свештеницима другог реда и онима који чуваху врата, да изнесу из цркве Господње све ствари које беху начињене Валу и гају и свој војсци небеској; и спали их иза Јерусалима у пољу кедронском, и однесе пепео од њих у Ветиљ.
5 And he destroyed the soothsayers, whom the kings of Judah had appointed to sacrifice in the high places throughout the cities of Judah, and all around Jerusalem, along with those who were burning incense to Baal, and to the Sun, and to the Moon, and to the twelve signs, and to the entire army of heaven.
И сврже свештенике идолске које беху поставили цареви Јудини да каде по висинама у градовима Јудиним и око Јерусалима тако и оне који кађаху Валу, сунцу и месецу и звездама и свој војсци небеској.
6 And he caused the sacred grove to be carried away from the house of the Lord, outside of Jerusalem, to the steep valley of Kidron. And he burned it there, and reduced it to dust. And he cast the dust over the graves of the common people.
И изнесе гај из дома Господњег иза Јерусалима на поток Кедрон, и спали га на потоку Кедрону и сатре у прах, и просу прах на гробове синова народних.
7 Also, he destroyed the small places of the effeminate, which were in the house of the Lord, for which the women were weaving something like little houses in the sacred grove.
И поквари куће курварске које беху у дому Господњем, у којима жене ткаху застираче за гај.
8 And he gathered together all the priests from the cities of Judah. And he defiled the high places, where the priests were sacrificing, from Geba as far as Beersheba. And he tore down the altars of the gates at the entrance to the gate of Joshua, the leader of the city, which was to the left of the gate of the city.
И доведавши све свештенике из градова Јудиних оскврни висине где кађаху свештеници од Геве до Вирсавеје, и поквари висине на вратима, и која беше на уласку на вратима Исуса заповедника градског налево од врата градских.
9 Yet truly, the priests of the high places did not ascend to the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem. For they would only eat from the unleavened bread in the midst of their brothers.
Али свештеници оних висина не приступаху к олтару Господњем у Јерусалиму, него јеђаху пресне хлебове међу браћом својом.
10 Also, he defiled Topheth, which is in the steep valley of the son of Hinnom, so that no one would consecrate his son or his daughter, through fire, to Molech.
Оскврни и Тофет, који беше у долини синова Еномових, да не би нико више водио сина свог ни кћери своје кроз огањ Молоху.
11 Also, he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the Sun, at the entrance to the temple of the Lord, beside the hallway of Nathan-melech, the eunuch, who was in Pharurim. And he burned the chariots of the Sun with fire.
И уклони коње које беху поставили цареви Јудини сунцу од уласка у дом Господњи до куће Натан-Мелеха дворанина, која беше у Фаруриму; а кола сунчана сажеже огњем.
12 Also, the altars which were upon 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 temple of the Lord, the king destroyed. And he hurried from there, and he scattered their ashes into the torrent Kidron.
И олтаре на крову собе Ахазове, које беху начинили цареви Јудини, и олтаре које беше начинио Манасија у оба трема дома Господњег, поквари цар, и узевши их оданде баци прах од њих у поток Кедрон.
13 Also, the high places which were in Jerusalem, to the right side of the Mount of Offense, which Solomon, the king of Israel, had built to Ashtoreth, the idol of the Sidonians, and to Chemosh, the offense of Moab, and to Milcom, the abomination of the sons of Ammon, the king defiled.
И висине према Јерусалиму с десне стране на гори Маслинској, које беше начинио Соломун, цар Израиљев Астароти гаду сидонском и Хемосу гаду моавском и Мелхому гаду синова Амонових, оскврни цар.
14 And he crushed the statues, and he cut down the sacred groves. And he filled their places with the bones of the dead.
И изломи ликове и исече гајеве, и места њихова напуни костију људских.
15 Then too, the altar which was in Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin, had made: both that altar and the high place he tore down, and burned, and reduced to dust. And then he also set fire to the sacred grove.
И олтар, који беше у Ветиљу, висину, коју беше начинио Јеровоам, син Наватов, који наведе на грех Израиља, и олтар и висину поквари, и спаливши висину сатре је у прах, и спали гај.
16 And in that place Josiah, turning, saw the sepulchers which were on the mount. And he sent and took the bones from the sepulchers. And he burned them upon the altar, and he defiled it in accord with the word of the Lord, which was spoken by the man of God, who had predicted these events.
И обазревши се Јосија виде гробове који беху онде на гори, и посла те извадише кости из гробова, и сажеже их на олтару и оскврни га, по речи Господњој, коју рече човек Божји, који напред каза те ствари.
17 And he said, “What is that monument that I see?” And the citizens of that city responded to him: “It is the sepulcher of the man of God, who came from Judah, and who predicted these events, which you have carried out concerning the altar of Bethel.”
И рече: Какав је оно споменик што видим? Рекоше му грађани: Оно је гроб човека Божијег који дође из Јуде и напред каза то што си учинио на олтару у Ветиљу.
18 And he said: “Permit him. Let no one move his bones.” And his bones have remained untouched, with the bones of the prophet who had arrived from Samaria.
А он рече: Оставите га, нико да му не креће кости. Тако се сачуваше кости његове с костима оног пророка који дође из Самарије.
19 Then too, all the shrines of the high places, which were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord, Josiah took away. And he acted toward them according to all the works that he had done in Bethel.
И све домове висина по градовима самаријским које начинише цареви Израиљеви гневећи Господа, поквари Јосија; и учини с њима све онако како учини у Ветиљу.
20 And all the priests of the high places, who were in that place, he killed upon the altars. And he burned the bones of the men upon them. And he returned to Jerusalem.
И покла све свештенике висина, који беху онуда, на олтарима, и сажеже кости људске на њима; потом се врати у Јерусалим.
21 And he instructed all the people, saying: “Keep the Passover to the Lord your God, according to what has been written in the book of this covenant.”
Тада заповеди цар свему народу говорећи: Празнујте пасху Господу Богу свом, као што пише у књизи заветној.
22 Now no similar Passover was kept, from the days of the judges, who judged Israel, and from all the days of the kings of Israel and the kings of Judah,
Јер не би празнована овако пасха од времена судија које судише Израиљу и за све време царева Израиљевих и царева Јудиних.
23 as this Passover, which was kept to the Lord in Jerusalem, in the eighteenth year of king Josiah.
Као што би осамнаесте године цара Јосије празнована пасха Господу у Јерусалиму.
24 Then too, Josiah took away those who divined by spirits, and the soothsayers, and the images of the idols, and the defilements, and the abominations, which had been in the land of Judah and Jerusalem, so that he might establish the words of the law, which were written in the book, which Hilkiah, the priest, found in the temple of the Lord.
И оне што се договарају с духовима и врачаре, и ликове и гадне богове и све гадове који се виђаху у земљи Јудиној и у Јерусалиму истреби Јосија да изврши речи закона написане у књизи коју нађе Хелкија свештеник у дому Господњем.
25 There was no king before him similar to him, who returned to the Lord with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his strength, in accord with the entire law of Moses. And after him, there rose up no one similar to him.
Ни пре њега не беше таквог цара, који би се обратио ка Господу свим срцем својим и свом душом својом и свом снагом својом, сасвим по закону Мојсијевом, нити после њега наста такав као он.
26 Yet truly, the Lord did not turn away from the wrath of his great fury, his fury which was enraged against Judah because of the provocations by which Manasseh had provoked him.
Али се Господ не поврати од жестине великог гнева свог, којом се беше распалио гнев Његов на Јуду за све дражење којим Га беше дражио Манасија.
27 And so the Lord said: “And now I will remove Judah from my face, just as I removed Israel. And I will cast aside this city, Jerusalem, which I have chosen, and the house, about which I said: My name shall be there.”
И рече Господ: и Јуду ћу одбацити од себе као што сам одбацио Израиља, и град ћу овај одбацити, који сам изабрао, Јерусалим, и дом, за који рекох: Ту ће бити име моје.
28 Now the rest of the words of Josiah, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
А остала дела Јосијина и све што је чинио, није ли записано у дневнику царева Јудиних?
29 During his days, Pharaoh Neco, the king of Egypt, ascended against the king of the Assyrians to the river Euphrates. And king Josiah went out to meet him. And when he had seen him, he was killed at Megiddo.
У његово време изађе Фараон Нехаон, цар мисирски на цара асирског к реци Ефрату, и цар Јосија изађе преда њ, а он како га виде уби га у Мегидону.
30 And his servants carried him dead from Megiddo. And they took him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his own sepulcher. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, the son of Josiah. And they anointed him, and made him king in place of his father.
И мртвог метнуше га слуге његове на кола, и одвезоше га из Мегидона у Јерусалим, и погребоше га у гробу његовом; и народ земаљски узе Јоахаза, сина Јосијиног, и помазаше га и зацарише га на место оца његовог.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for three months in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah, from Libnah.
Двадесет и три године беше Јоахазу кад поче царовати, и царова три месеца у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Амутала, кћи Јеремијина, из Ливне.
32 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done.
Он чињаше што је зло пред Господом сасвим како су чинили оци његови.
33 And Pharaoh Neco bound him at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath, so that he would not reign in Jerusalem. And he imposed a penalty on the land: one hundred talents of silver, and one talent of gold.
И свеза га Фараон Нехаон у Ривли, у земљи ематској да више не царује у Јерусалиму, и оглоби земљу сто таланата сребра и таланат злата.
34 And Pharaoh Neco appointed Eliakim, the son of Josiah, as king in place of Josiah his father. And he changed his name to Jehoiakim. Then he took Jehoahaz away, and he brought him into Egypt, and there he died.
А царем постави Фараон Нехаон Елијакима, сина Јосијиног на место Јосије оца његовог, и преде му име Јоаким; а Јоахаза узе и отиде у Мисир, а он умре онде.
35 Now Jehoiakim gave silver and gold to Pharaoh, when he had taxed the land, according to each one who would contribute by the command of Pharaoh. And he exacted both silver and gold from the people of the land, from each one according to his ability, so that he would give to Pharaoh Neco.
А оно сребро и злато даде Јоаким Фараону разрезавши на земљу да би дао новце по заповести Фараоновој, од сваког узимајући како беше цењен, сребро и злато по народу у земљи, да да Фараону Нехаону.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Zebidah, the daughter of Pedaiah, from Rumah.
Двадесет и пет година беше Јоакиму кад поче царовати, и царова једанаест година у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Зевуда, кћи Федајева, из Руме.
37 And he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all that his fathers had done.
А он чињаше што је зло пред Господом сасвим како су чинили оци његови.
