< 2 Chronicles 30 >

1 Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the LORD’s house at Jerusalem, to keep the Passover to the LORD, the God of Israel.
Potom posla Jezekija k svemu Izrailju i Judi, i napisa knjige sinovima Jefremovijem i Manasijinim da doðu u dom Gospodnji u Jerusalim da proslave pashu Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu.
2 For the king had taken counsel with his princes and all the assembly in Jerusalem to keep the Passover in the second month.
Jer car i knezovi njegovi i sav zbor svijeæaše u Jerusalimu da slave pashu drugoga mjeseca.
3 For they could not keep it at that time, because the priests had not sanctified themselves in sufficient number, and the people had not gathered themselves together to Jerusalem.
Jer je ne mogaše slaviti u to vrijeme, jer ne bijaše dosta sveštenika posveæenijeh i narod se ne bješe skupio u Jerusalim.
4 The thing was right in the eyes of the king and of all the assembly.
I to bi po volji caru i svemu zboru.
5 So they established a decree to make proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba even to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the LORD, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem, for they had not kept it in great numbers in the way it is written.
I odrediše da oglase po svemu Izrailju od Virsaveje do Dana da doðu u Jerusalim da proslave pashu Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu, jer je odavna ne bjehu slavili kako je napisano.
6 So the couriers went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah, according to the commandment of the king, saying, “You children of Israel, turn again to the LORD, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, that he may return to the remnant of you that have escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria.
I tako otidoše glasnici s knjigama od cara i od knezova po svemu Izrailju i Judi, i po zapovijesti carevoj govorahu: sinovi Izrailjevi, obratite se ka Gospodu Bogu Avramovu, Isakovu i Izrailjevu, pa æe se i on obratiti k ostatku koji ste ostali od ruku careva Asirskih.
7 Don’t be like your fathers and like your brothers, who trespassed against the LORD, the God of their fathers, so that he gave them up to desolation, as you see.
Ne budite kao oci vaši i kao braæa vaša što griješiše Gospodu Bogu otaca svojih, te ih dade da budu èudo, kako vidite.
8 Now don’t be stiff-necked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves to the LORD, and enter into his sanctuary, which he has sanctified forever, and serve the LORD your God, that his fierce anger may turn away from you.
Ne budite dakle tvrdovrati kao oci vaši, dajte ruke Gospodu i hodite u svetinju njegovu koju je osvetio navijek, i služite Gospodu Bogu svojemu, pa æe se odvratiti od vas žestina gnjeva njegova.
9 For if you turn again to the LORD, your brothers and your children will find compassion with those who led them captive, and will come again into this land, because the LORD your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you if you return to him.”
Jer ako se obratite ka Gospodu, braæa æe vaša i sinovi vaši steæi milost u onijeh koji ih zarobiše, te æe se vratiti u ovu zemlju; jer je Gospod Bog vaš milostiv i žalostiv, i neæe odvratiti lica od vas, ako se obratite k njemu.
10 So the couriers passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, even to Zebulun, but people ridiculed them and mocked them.
A kad ti glasnici iðahu od grada do grada po zemlji Jefremovoj i Manasijinoj dori do Zavulona, potsmijevahu im se i rugahu im se.
11 Nevertheless some men of Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.
Ali neki od Asira i od Manasije i od Zavulona pokorivši se doðoše u Jerusalim.
12 Also the hand of God came on Judah to give them one heart, to do the commandment of the king and of the princes by the LORD’s word.
I nad Judu doðe ruka Gospodnja, te im dade jedno srce da uèine što bješe zapovjedio car i knezovi po rijeèi Gospodnjoj.
13 Many people assembled at Jerusalem to keep the feast of unleavened bread in the second month, a very great assembly.
I skupi se u Jerusalim mnoštvo naroda da praznuju praznik prijesnijeh hljebova drugog mjeseca, i bi sabor veoma velik.
14 They arose and took away the altars that were in Jerusalem, and they took away all the altars for incense and threw them into the brook Kidron.
Tada se podigoše, i oboriše oltare što bijahu u Jerusalimu, i sve oltare kadione oboriše i baciše u potok Kison.
15 Then they killed the Passover on the fourteenth day of the second month. The priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought burnt offerings into the LORD’s house.
Potom zaklaše pashu èetrnaestoga dana drugoga mjeseca; a sveštenici i Leviti postidjevši se osveštaše se, i unesoše žrtve paljenice u dom Gospodnji.
16 They stood in their place after their order, according to the Torah of Moses the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood which they received of the hand of the Levites.
I stadoše svojim redom kako treba po zakonu Mojsija sluge Božijega; i sveštenici kropiše krvlju primajuæi iz ruke Levitima.
17 For there were many in the assembly who had not sanctified themselves; therefore the Levites were in charge of killing the Passovers for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to the LORD.
I jer ih mnogo bijaše u zboru koji se ne bjehu osveštali; zato Leviti klahu pashu za svakoga koji ne bješe èist da bi ih posvetili Gospodu.
18 For a multitude of the people, even many of Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleansed themselves, yet they ate the Passover other than the way it is written. For Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, “May the good LORD pardon everyone
Jer mnoštvo naroda, mnogi od Jefrema i od Manasije i od Isahara i od Zavulona ne oèistiše se, nego jedoše pashu ne kako je napisano. Ali se za njih pomoli Jezekija govoreæi: Gospod blagi neka oèisti svakoga,
19 who sets his heart to seek God, the LORD, the God of his fathers, even if they aren’t clean according to the purification of the sanctuary.”
Ko je upravio srce svoje da traži Boga Gospoda, Boga otaca svojih, ako i ne bi bio èist prema svetom oèišæenju.
20 The LORD listened to Hezekiah, and healed the people.
I usliši Gospod Jezekiju, i saèuva narod.
21 The children of Israel who were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness. The Levites and the priests praised the LORD day by day, singing with loud instruments to the LORD.
I tako sinovi Izrailjevi koji bjehu u Jerusalimu praznovaše praznik prijesnijeh hljebova sedam dana u velikom veselju, i hvaljahu Gospoda svaki dan Leviti i sveštenici uz oruða za slavu Gospodnju.
22 Hezekiah spoke encouragingly to all the Levites who had good understanding in the service of the LORD. So they ate throughout the feast for the seven days, offering sacrifices of peace offerings and making confession to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
I Jezekija govori ljubazno sa svijem Levitima koji vješti bijahu službi Gospodnjoj; i jedoše o prazniku sedam dana prinoseæi žrtve zahvalne i slaveæi Gospoda Boga otaca svojih.
23 The whole assembly took counsel to keep another seven days, and they kept another seven days with gladness.
I sav zbor dogovori se da praznuje još sedam dana; i praznovaše još sedam dana u veselju.
24 For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the assembly for offerings one thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep; and the princes gave to the assembly a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep; and a great number of priests sanctified themselves.
Jer Jezekija car Judin dade zboru tisuæu junaca i sedam tisuæa ovaca; a knezovi dadoše zboru tisuæu junaca i deset tisuæa ovaca; i osvešta se mnogo sveštenika.
25 All the assembly of Judah, with the priests and the Levites, and all the assembly who came out of Israel, and the foreigners who came out of Eretz-Israel and who lived in Judah, rejoiced.
I tako se proveseli sav zbor Judin i sveštenici i Leviti, i sav zbor što bješe došao od Izrailja, i došljaci što bjehu došli iz zemlje Izrailjeve i koji življahu u zemlji Judinoj.
26 So there was great joy in Jerusalem; for since the time of Solomon the son of David king of Israel there was nothing like this in Jerusalem.
I bi veselje veliko u Jerusalimu; jer od vremena Solomuna sina Davidova cara Izrailjeva ne bi tako u Jerusalimu.
27 Then the Levitical priests arose and blessed the people. Their voice was heard, and their prayer came up to his holy habitation, even to heaven.
Potom ustaše sveštenici i Leviti i blagosloviše narod; i uslišen bi glas njihov, i molitva njihova doðe u stan svetinje Gospodnje na nebo.
