1 Потом почину Јосафат код отаца својих, и би погребен код отаца својих у граду Давидовом; а на његово се место зацари Јорам, син његов.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David: and Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
2 А браћа му, синови Јосафатови, беху: Азарија и Јехило и Захарија и Азарија и Михаило и Сефатија; ти сви беху синови Јосафата цара Израиљевог.
He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3 И отац им даде велике дарове, сребра и злата и заклада с тврдим градовима у земљи Јудиној; царство пак даде Јораму, јер беше првенац.
Their father gave them great gifts, of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fortified cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.
4 А Јорам ступивши на царство оца свог и утврдивши се, поби сву браћу своју мачем и неке кнезове Израиљеве.
Now when Jehoram was risen up over the kingdom of his father, and had strengthened himself, he killed all his brothers with the sword, and various also of the princes of Israel.
5 Имаше Јорам тридесет и две године кад се зацари, и царова осам година у Јерусалиму.
Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
6 И хођаше путем царева Израиљевих, као што чињаше дом Ахавов, јер се ожени кћерју Ахавовом; и чињаше што је зло пред Господом.
He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab; for he had the daughter of Ahab as wife: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
7 Али Господ не хте затрти дом Давидов ради завета који учини с Давидом и што му беше рекао да ће дати видело њему и синовима његовим увек.
However the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
8 За његовог времена одврже се Едом да не буде под Јудом, и поставише себи цара.
In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.
9 Зато отиде Јорам с војводама својим и са свим колима својим; и уста ноћу, те поби Едомце који га беху опколили, и заповеднике од кола.
Then Jehoram passed over with his captains, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and struck the Edomites who surrounded him, along with the captains of the chariots.
10 Ипак се одвргоше Едомци да не буду под Јудом до данас. У исто време одврже се Ливна да не буде под њим, јер остави Господа Бога отаца својих.
So Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah to this day: then Libnah revolted at the same time from under his hand, because he had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11 Још и висине начини по брдима Јудиним, и наведе на прељубу Јерусалимљане и преласти Јуду.
Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, and led Judah astray.
12 Тада му дође књига од Илије пророка, где му говораше: Овако вели Господ Бог Давида оца твог: Што ниси ходио путевима Јосафата, оца свог и путевима Асе, цара Јудиног,
A letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, "Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, 'Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah,
13 Него си ходио путем царева Израиљевих и навео си на прељубу Јуду и Јерусалимљане, као што је дом Ахавов навео на прељубу Израиља, и још си побио браћу своју, дом оца свог, боље од себе,
but have walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the prostitute, like the house of Ahab did, and also have slain your brothers of your father's house, who were better than yourself:
14 Ево, Господ ће ударити великим злом народ твој и синове твоје и жене твоје и све што имаш.
look, the LORD will strike with a great plague your people, and your children, and your wives, and all your substance;
15 И ти ћеш боловати тешко, од болести у цревима, да ће ти црева изаћи од болести, која ће трајати две године.
and you shall have great sickness by disease of your bowels, until your bowels fall out by reason of the sickness, day by day.'"
16 И тако подиже Господ на Јорама дух Филистејима и Арапима који живе од Етиопљана.
The LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians who are beside the Ethiopians:
17 И они дошавши на земљу Јудину продреше у њу, и однесоше све благо што се нађе у дому царевом, и синове његове и жене његове, да му не оста ниједан син осим Јоахаза најмлађег сина његовог.
and they came up against Judah, and broke into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king's house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
18 И после свега тога удари га Господ болешћу у цревима, којој не беше лека.
After all this the LORD struck him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
19 И дан по дан пролажаше, и кад се навршише две године, изиђоше му црева с болешћу и умре од тешких болова и народ му не пали мириса као што је чинио оцима његовим.
It happened, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness, and he died of severe diseases. His people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
20 Имаше тридесет и две године кад поче царовати, и царова осам година у Јерусалиму, и премину да нико не зажали за њим; и погребоше га у граду Давидовом, али не у гробу царском.
Thirty-two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years: and he departed without being desired; and they buried him in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
