2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled in Jerusalem for 40 years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba [city].
Joáš je bil star sedem let, ko je začel kraljevati in v Jeruzalemu je kraljeval štirideset let. Ime njegove matere je bilo Cibja iz Beeršébe.
2 Joash did what pleased Yahweh as long as Jehoiada was [the Supreme] Priest.
Joáš je delal to, kar je bilo pravilno v Gospodovih očeh, vse dni duhovnika Jojadája.
3 Jehoiada chose two women to be Joash’s wives. And they bore Joash sons and daughters.
Jojadá je zanj vzel dve ženi in zaplodil je sinove in hčere.
4 Some years later, Joash decided that the temple should be repaired.
Za tem se je pripetilo, da je imel Joáš na srcu, da popravi Gospodovo hišo.
5 He summoned the priests and other descendants of Levi and said to them, “Go to the towns in Judah and collect from the people the tax money that they are required to pay each year, and use that money to pay for repairing the temple. Do it immediately.” But the descendants of Levi did not do it immediately.
Skupaj je zbral duhovnike in Lévijevce ter jim rekel: »Pojdite ven v Judova mesta in od vsega Izraela zbirajte denar za popravilo hiše svojega Boga iz leta v leto in glejte, da pohitrite zadevo. Vendar Lévijevci niso pohiteli.
6 So the king summoned Jehoiada and said to him, “Why have you not required the descendants of Levi to bring to Jerusalem from various places in Judah the annual/yearly tax that Moses said that the people of Judah must pay, for taking care of the Sacred Tent?”
Kralj je dal poklicati vodja Jojadája ter mu rekel: »Zakaj nisi od Lévijevcev zahteval, da iz Juda in Jeruzalema prinašajo nabirko, glede na zapoved Mojzesa, Gospodovega služabnika in iz Izraelove skupnosti za šotorsko svetišče pričevanja?
7 [The temple needed to be repaired] because the sons of that wicked woman Athaliah had entered into the temple [and had wrecked some of the things], and had also used some of the sacred items that were in it for [the worship of] Baal.
Kajti sinovi te zlobne ženske Atalje so razbili Božjo hišo in tudi vse posvečene stvari Gospodove hiše so podelili Báalom.
8 So, obeying what the king commanded, the descendants of Levi made a chest and placed it outside the temple, at one of the entrances.
Na kraljevo zapoved so naredili zaboj in ga postavili zunaj pri velikih vratih Gospodove hiše.
9 Then the king sent letters everywhere in Judah, requesting everyone to bring their tax money to the temple, like Moses had required the Israeli people to do [when they were] in the desert.
Naredili so razglas po vsem Judu in Jeruzalemu, naj prinašajo Gospodu nabirko, ki jo je Božji služabnik Mojzes naložil Izraelu v divjini.
10 All the officials and the other people [agreed, and they] brought their contributions gladly. They put the money into the chest until it was full.
Vsi princi in vse ljudstvo se je veselilo, prinašalo in metalo v zaboj, dokler niso končali.
11 Whenever the descendants of Levi brought the chest to the king’s officials, and they saw that there was a lot of money in it, the king’s secretary and the assistant to the [Supreme] Priest would take all the money from the chest, and then put the chest back in its place. They did this frequently, and they collected a huge amount of money.
Torej pripetilo se je, da kadar je bil zaboj po roki Lévijevcev prinesen v kraljevo pisarno in ko so videli, da je bilo v njem veliko denarja, sta prišla kraljevi pisar in častnik vélikega duhovnika ter izpraznila zaboj in ga vzela ter ga ponovno odnesla na njegov kraj. Tako so delali dan za dnem in zbrali denarja v obilju.
12 The king and Jehoiada gave the money to the men who were supervising the work of repairing the temple. Those men hired stoneworkers and carpenters to repair the temple. They also hired men who worked with iron and bronze to repair things in the temple [that were broken].
Kralj in Jojadá sta ga dajala tistim, ki so opravljali delo službe Gospodove hiše ter najemala zidarje in tesarje, da obnovijo Gospodovo hišo in tudi tiste, ki so kovali železo in bron, da popravijo Gospodovo hišo.
13 The men who did the repair work worked hard, and the work of repairing the temple progressed. They rebuilt the temple so that it was like it was originally, and they even made it stronger.
Tako so delavci delali in delo dovršili in Božjo hišo so postavili v njeno stanje in jo utrdili.
14 When they had finished the repair work, they brought to the king and to Jehoiada the money that they had not used for the repairs. That money was used to make things to use for offering the sacrifices that were completely burned [on the altar], and to make bowls and other gold and silver things for the temple. As long as Joash lived, the people continually brought to the temple sacrifices that were to be completely burned on the altar.
Ko so jo končali, so preostanek denarja prinesli pred kralja in Jojadája, s čimer so bile narejene posode za Gospodovo hišo, torej posode za služenje in da z njimi darujejo ter žlice in posode iz zlata in srebra. In nenehno so darovali žgalne daritve v Gospodovi hiši, vse Jojadájeve dni.
15 Jehoiada lived to become very old. He died when he was 130 years old.
Toda Jojadá se je postaral in ko je umrl, je bil izpolnjen z dnevi in ko je umrl, je bil star sto trideset let.
16 He was buried where the kings had been buried, in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. [He was buried there] because of the good things that he had done in Judah for God and for God’s temple.
Pokopali so ga med kralji v Davidovem mestu, ker je delal dobro v Izraelu, tako za Boga kot za svojo hišo.
17 After Jehoiada died, the leaders of Judah went to Joash, bowed in front of him, and persuaded him to do what they wanted.
Torej po smrti Jojadája so prišli Judovi princi in se globoko priklonili kralju. Potem jim je kralj prisluhnil.
18 So they and the other people stopped worshiping at the temple, and they started worshiping the poles dedicated to [the goddess] Asherah and other idols. Because of their doing those sinful things, God was very angry with the people of Jerusalem and [with the people in other places in] Judah.
Zapustili so hišo Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov in služili ašeram in malikom in zaradi tega njihovega prekrška je prišel bes nad Juda in Jeruzalem.
19 Although Yahweh sent prophets to persuade them to return to him, and although the prophets told them about the evil things that they had done, the people would not pay attention.
Vendar jim je pošiljal preroke, da jih ponovno privedejo h Gospodu in ti so pričevali zoper njih, toda oni jim niso hoteli prisluhnili.
20 Then God’s Spirit came upon Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada the [Supreme] Priest. He stood up front of the people and said, “This is what God says: ‘Why are you disobeying what I, Yahweh, have commanded? You have abandoned me, so I will abandon you.’”
In Božji Duh je prišel nad Zeharjá, sina duhovnika Jojadája, ki je stal nad ljudstvom ter jim rekel: »Tako govori Bog: ›Zakaj prestopate Gospodove zapovedi, da ne morete uspevati? Ker ste zapustili Gospoda, je tudi on zapustil vas.‹«
21 But the people planned to kill Zechariah. And the king joined them in doing it. The people killed Zechariah by throwing stones at him in the temple courtyard.
Oni pa so se zarotili zoper njega in ga na kraljevo zapoved kamnali s kamni na dvoru Gospodove hiše.
22 King Joash had forgotten about how Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had been kind to him. That’s why he gave orders for the people to kill Jehoiada’s son Zechariah, who said as he was dying, “I hope that Yahweh will see [what you are doing to me] and punish [you for doing it].”
Tako se kralj Joáš ni spomnil prijaznosti, ki mu jo je storil njegov oče Jojadá, temveč je usmrtil njegovega sina. In ko je ta umiral, je rekel: » Gospod glej na to in to zahtevaj.«
23 Near the end of that year (OR, early in the following year), the army of Syria marched to attack [the army of] Joash. They invaded Judah and attacked Jerusalem and killed all the leaders of the people. They [seized many valuable things and] sent them to their king in Damascus, [their capital city.]
Pripetilo se je ob koncu leta, da je zoper njega prišla sirska vojska. Prišli so do Juda in Jeruzalema in izmed ljudstva uničili vse prince ljudstva in ves njihov plen poslali h kralju v Damask.
24 The army of Syria [that came to Judah] was very small, but Yahweh allowed them to defeat the large army of Judah, because he was punishing Joash and the other people of Judah for having abandoned him, the God whom their ancestors worshiped.
Kajti vojska Sircev je prišla z majhno skupino mož in Gospod je v njihovo roko izročil zelo veliko množico, ker so zapustili Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov. Tako so izvršili sodbo nad Joášem.
25 Before the battle ended, Joash was severely wounded. Then his officials decided to kill him for murdering Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada the [Supreme] Priest. They killed him while he was in his bed. He was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, but they did not bury him in the place where the other kings had been buried.
Ko so odšli od njega (kajti zapustili so ga v velikih boleznih), so se njegovi lastni služabniki zarotili zoper njega zaradi krvi sinov duhovnika Jojadája in ga usmrtili na njegovi postelji in je umrl. Pokopali so ga v Davidovem mestu, toda niso ga pokopali v mavzolejih kraljev.
26 Those who conspired to kill him were Zabad the son of Shimeath, who was a woman from the Ammon [people-group], and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith, who was a woman from the Moab [people-group].
To sta tista [dva], ki sta se zarotila zoper njega: Zabád, sin Amónke Šimáte in Jozabád, sin Moábke Šimrite.
27 An account of the things that were done by the sons of Joash and the many prophecies about Joash and what he did to repair the temple are written in the scroll called ‘the History of the Kings [of Judah and Israel]’. Then after Joash died, Amaziah his son became the king.
Torej glede njegovih sinov in veličine bremen, položenih nadenj in obnove Božje hiše, glej, ta so zapisana v zgodbi knjige kraljev. In namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Amacjá.
