2 Chronicles 24
1 Joas was seven years old when he began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.
Беше Јоасу седам година кад се зацари, и царова четрдесет година у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Сивија из Вирсавеје.
2 And he did that which is good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.
И чињаше Јоас што је право пред Господом докле год беше жив Јодај свештеник.
3 And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.
И Јодај га ожени двема женама, те роди синове и кћери.
4 After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.
Потом Јоас науми да оправи дом Господњи.
5 And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.
И сазва свештенике и Левите, па им рече: Пођите по градовима Јудиним и купите од свега Израиља новац да се оправља дом Бога вашег од године до године, и ви похитајте с тим. Али не хитеше Левити.
6 And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?
Зато цар дозва Јодаја поглавара и рече му: Зашто не настојиш да Левити доносе из Јудеје и Јерусалима прилоге које је наредио Мојсије слуга Господњи збору Израиљевом на шатор од састанка?
7 For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.
Јер безбожна Готолија и синови њени опленише дом Господњи и све ствари посвећене дому Господњем обратише на Вале.
8 And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.
И тако заповеди цар те начинише ковчег, и метнуше га на врата дома Господњег споља.
9 And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.
И огласише по Јудеји и по Јерусалиму да доносе Господу прилог који је наредио Мојсије, слуга Божји, Израиљу у пустињи.
10 And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.
И обрадоваше се кнезови и сав народ, и доносећи метаху у ковчег докле се не сврши.
11 And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money, ) the king’s scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.
И кад доношаху Левити ковчег, по заповести царевој, видевши да има много новца, долажаше писар царев и посланик поглавара свештеничког, те изручиваху ковчег, потом га опет одношаху и остављаху на његово место; и тако чињаху сваки дан, и накупише много новца.
12 And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.
И даваше га цар Јодај настојницима над послом око дома Господњег, а они наимаху каменаре и дрводеље да се обнови дом Господњи, и коваче који раде од гвожђа и од бронзе, да се оправи дом Господњи.
13 And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.
И пословаху посленици, и оправљање напредоваше под њиховим рукама, те повратише дому Божјем обличје његово, и утврдише га.
14 And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.
А кад свршише, донесоше пред цара и Јодаја новце што претекоше; и од тог новца начини судове за дом Господњи, судове за службу и за жртве, и кадионице, и друге судове златне и сребрне. И тако приношаху жртве паљенице у дому Господњем једнако свега века Јодајевог.
15 But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.
Потом остаревши Јодај сит живота умре; сто и тридесет година беше му кад умре.
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.
И погребоше га у граду Давидовом код царева; јер чињаше добро Израиљу и Богу и дому његовом.
17 And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.
А кад умре Јодај, дођоше кнезови Јудини и поклонише се цару; тада их послуша цар,
18 And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.
Те оставише дом Господа Бога отаца својих, и стадоше служити луговима и идолима; и подиже се гнев Господњи на Јуду и на Јерусалим за тај грех њихов.
19 And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.
И слаше им пророке да их врате ка Господу, и они им сведочаху, али их не послушаше.
20 The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?
И дође дух Господњи на Захарију, сина Јодаја свештеника, те стаде више народа и рече им: Овако вели Бог: Зашто преступате заповести Господње? Нећете бити срећни; што остависте Господа, зато и Он вас остави.
21 And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king’s commandment in the court of the house of the Lord.
А они се побунише на њ, и засуше га камењем по заповести царевој у трему дома Господњег.
22 And king Joas did not remember the kindness that Joiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. And when he died, he said: The Lord see, and require it.
И не опомену се Јоас милости коју му учини Јодај, отац његов, него уби сина његовог; а он умирући рече: Господ нека види и тражи.
23 And when a year was come about, the army of Syria came up against him: and they came to Juda and Jerusalem, and killed all the princes of the people, and they sent all the spoils to the king of Damascus.
А кад прође година, подиже се на њ војска сирска и уђе у земљу јудејску и у Јерусалим, и побише по народу све кнезове народне, и сав плен од њих послаше цару у Дамаск.
24 And whereas there came a very small number of the Syrians, the Lord delivered into their hands an infinite multitude, because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers: and on Joas they executed shameful judgments.
Ако и мала беше војска сирска која дође, ипак Господ даде у руке њихове врло велику војску, јер беху оставили Господа Бога отаца својих. И тако на Јоасу извршише суд.
25 And departing they left him in diseases: and his servants rose up him, for revenge of the blood of the son of Joiada the priest, and they slew him in his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
А кад отидоше од њега оставивши га у тешкој болести, побунише се на њ слуге његове за крв синова Јодаја свештеника, и убише га на постељи његовој, те погибе; и погребоше га у граду Давидовом, али га не погребоше у гробовима царским.
26 Now the men that conspired against him were Zabad the son of Semmaath an Ammonitess, and Jozabad the son of Semarith a Moabitess.
А ово су што се побунише на њ: Завад, син Симеате Амонке и Јозавад, син Симрите Моавке.
27 And concerning his sons, and the sum of money which was gathered under him, and the repairing the house of God; they are written more diligently in the book of kings: and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
А о синовима његовим и о великом порезу што би под њим, и о грађењу дома Божјег, ето записано је у књизи о царевима. А зацари се на његово место Амасија, син његов.
