1 Tada posla car, te se skupiše k njemu sve starešine Judine i jerusalimske.
1 The king sent, and they gathered to him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
2 I otide car u dom Gospodnji i s njim svi ljudi iz zemlji Judine i svi Jerusalimljani i sveštenici i proroci i sav narod, malo i veliko, i pročita im sve reči knjige zavetne, koja se nađe u domu Gospodnjem.
2 The king went up to Yahweh’s house, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him—with the priests, the prophets, and all the people, both small and great; and he read in their hearing all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in Yahweh’s house.
3 I car stojeći kod stupa učini zavet pred Gospodom da će oni ići za Gospodom i držati zapovesti Njegove i svedočanstva Njegova i uredbe Njegove svim srcem i svom dušom, vršeći reči tog zaveta napisane u toj knjizi. I sav narod prista na zavet.
3 The king stood by the pillar and made a covenant before Yahweh to walk after Yahweh and to keep his commandments, his testimonies, and his statutes with all his heart and all his soul, to confirm the words of this covenant that were written in this book; and all the people agreed to the covenant.
4 Tada zapovedi car Helkiji, poglavaru svešteničkom i sveštenicima drugog reda i onima koji čuvahu vrata, da iznesu iz crkve Gospodnje sve stvari koje behu načinjene Valu i gaju i svoj vojsci nebeskoj; i spali ih iza Jerusalima u polju kedronskom, i odnese pepeo od njih u Vetilj.
4 The king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the threshold, to bring out of Yahweh’s temple all the vessels that were made for Baal, for the Asherah, and for all the army of the sky; and he burned them outside of Jerusalem in the fields of the Kidron, and carried their ashes to Bethel.
5 I svrže sveštenike idolske koje behu postavili carevi Judini da kade po visinama u gradovima Judinim i oko Jerusalima tako i one koji kađahu Valu, suncu i mesecu i zvezdama i svoj vojsci nebeskoj.
5 He got rid of the idolatrous priests whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah and in the places around Jerusalem; those also who burned incense to Baal, to the sun, to the moon, to the planets, and to all the army of the sky.
6 I iznese gaj iz doma Gospodnjeg iza Jerusalima na potok Kedron, i spali ga na potoku Kedronu i satre u prah, i prosu prah na grobove sinova narodnih.
6 He brought out the Asherah from Yahweh’s house, outside of Jerusalem, to the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and beat it to dust, and cast its dust on the graves of the common people.
7 I pokvari kuće kurvarske koje behu u domu Gospodnjem, u kojima žene tkahu zastirače za gaj.
7 He broke down the houses of the male shrine prostitutes that were in Yahweh’s house, where the women wove hangings for the Asherah.
8 I dovedavši sve sveštenike iz gradova Judinih oskvrni visine gde kađahu sveštenici od Geve do Virsaveje, i pokvari visine na vratima, i koja beše na ulasku na vratima Isusa zapovednika gradskog nalevo od vrata gradskih.
8 He brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba; and he broke down the high places of the gates that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
9 Ali sveštenici onih visina ne pristupahu k oltaru Gospodnjem u Jerusalimu, nego jeđahu presne hlebove među braćom svojom.
9 Nevertheless the priests of the high places didn’t come up to Yahweh’s altar in Jerusalem, but they ate unleavened bread among their brothers.
10 Oskvrni i Tofet, koji beše u dolini sinova Enomovih, da ne bi niko više vodio sina svog ni kćeri svoje kroz oganj Molohu.
10 He defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
11 I ukloni konje koje behu postavili carevi Judini suncu od ulaska u dom Gospodnji do kuće Natan-Meleha dvoranina, koja beše u Farurimu; a kola sunčana sažeže ognjem.
11 He took away the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun, at the entrance of Yahweh’s house, by the room of Nathan Melech the officer who was in the court; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
12 I oltare na krovu sobe Ahazove, koje behu načinili carevi Judini, i oltare koje beše načinio Manasija u oba trema doma Gospodnjeg, pokvari car, i uzevši ih odande baci prah od njih u potok Kedron.
12 The king broke down the altars that were on 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 Yahweh’s house, and beat them down from there, and cast their dust into the brook Kidron.
13 I visine prema Jerusalimu s desne strane na gori maslinskoj, koje beše načinio Solomun, car Izrailjev Astaroti gadu sidonskom i Hemosu gadu moavskom i Melhomu gadu sinova Amonovih, oskvrni car.
13 The king defiled the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mountain of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon.
14 I izlomi likove i iseče gajeve, i mesta njihova napuni kostiju ljudskih.
14 He broke in pieces the pillars, cut down the Asherah poles, and filled their places with men’s bones.
15 I oltar, koji beše u Vetilju, visinu, koju beše načinio Jerovoam, sin Navatov, koji navede na greh Izrailja, i oltar i visinu pokvari, i spalivši visinu satre je u prah, i spali gaj.
15 Moreover the altar that was at Bethel and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, even that altar and the high place he broke down; and he burned the high place and beat it to dust, and burned the Asherah.
16 I obazrevši se Josija vide grobove koji behu onde na gori, i posla te izvadiše kosti iz grobova, i sažeže ih na oltaru i oskvrni ga, po reči Gospodnjoj, koju reče čovek Božji, koji napred kaza te stvari.
16 As Josiah turned himself, he spied the tombs that were there in the mountain; and he sent, and took the bones out of the tombs, and burned them on the altar, and defiled it, according to Yahweh’s word which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
17 I reče: Kakav je ono spomenik što vidim? Rekoše mu građani: Ono je grob čoveka Božijeg koji dođe iz Jude i napred kaza to što si učinio na oltaru u Vetilju.
17 Then he said, “What monument is that which I see?” The men of the city told him, “It is the tomb of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed these things that you have done against the altar of Bethel.”
18 A on reče: Ostavite ga, niko da mu ne kreće kosti. Tako se sačuvaše kosti njegove s kostima onog proroka koji dođe iz Samarije.
18 He said, “Let him be! Let no one move his bones.” So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet who came out of Samaria.
19 I sve domove visina po gradovima samarijskim koje načiniše carevi Izrailjevi gneveći Gospoda, pokvari Josija; i učini s njima sve onako kako učini u Vetilju.
19 All the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke Yahweh to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.
20 I pokla sve sveštenike visina, koji behu onuda, na oltarima, i sažeže kosti ljudske na njima; potom se vrati u Jerusalim.
20 He killed all the priests of the high places that were there, on the altars, and burned men’s bones on them; and he returned to Jerusalem.
21 Tada zapovedi car svemu narodu govoreći: Praznujte pashu Gospodu Bogu svom, kao što piše u knjizi zavetnoj.
21 The king commanded all the people, saying, “Keep the Passover to Yahweh your God, as it is written in this book of the covenant.”
22 Jer ne bi praznovana ovako pasha od vremena sudija koje sudiše Izrailju i za sve vreme careva Izrailjevih i careva Judinih.
22 Surely there was not kept such a Passover from the days of the judges who judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
23 Kao što bi osamnaeste godine cara Josije praznovana pasha Gospodu u Jerusalimu.
23 but in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was kept to Yahweh in Jerusalem.
24 I one što se dogovaraju s duhovima i vračare, i likove i gadne bogove i sve gadove koji se viđahu u zemlji Judinoj i u Jerusalimu istrebi Josija da izvrši reči zakona napisane u knjizi koju nađe Helkija sveštenik u domu Gospodnjem.
24 Moreover, Josiah removed those who had familiar spirits, the wizards, and the teraphim, and the idols, and all the abominations that were seen in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in Yahweh’s house.
25 Ni pre njega ne beše takvog cara, koji bi se obratio ka Gospodu svim srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom i svom snagom svojom, sasvim po zakonu Mojsijevom, niti posle njega nasta takav kao on.
25 There was no king like him before him, who turned to Yahweh with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; and there was none like him who arose after him.
26 Ali se Gospod ne povrati od žestine velikog gneva svog, kojom se beše raspalio gnev Njegov na Judu za sve draženje kojim Ga beše dražio Manasija.
26 Notwithstanding, Yahweh didn’t turn from the fierceness of his great wrath, with which his anger burned against Judah, because of all the provocation with which Manasseh had provoked him.
27 I reče Gospod: i Judu ću odbaciti od sebe kao što sam odbacio Izrailja, i grad ću ovaj odbaciti, koji sam izabrao, Jerusalim, i dom, za koji rekoh: Tu će biti ime moje.
27 Yahweh said, “I will also remove Judah out of my sight, as I have removed Israel; and I will cast off this city which I have chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house of which I said, ‘My name shall be there.’”
28 A ostala dela Josijina i sve što je činio, nije li zapisano u dnevniku careva Judinih?
28 Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
29 U njegovo vreme izađe Faraon Nehaon, car misirski na cara asirskog k reci Efratu, i car Josija izađe preda nj, a on kako ga vide ubi ga u Megidonu.
29 In his days Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates; and King Josiah went against him, but Pharaoh Necoh killed him at Megiddo when he saw him.
30 I mrtvog metnuše ga sluge njegove na kola, i odvezoše ga iz Megidona u Jerusalim, i pogreboše ga u grobu njegovom; i narod zemaljski uze Joahaza, sina Josijinog, i pomazaše ga i zacariše ga na mesto oca njegovog.
30 His servants carried him dead in a chariot from Megiddo, brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. The people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s place.
31 Dvadeset i tri godine beše Joahazu kad poče carovati, i carova tri meseca u Jerusalimu. Materi mu beše ime Amutala, kći Jeremijina, iz Livne.
31 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
32 On činjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom sasvim kako su činili oci njegovi.
32 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that his fathers had done.
33 I sveza ga Faraon Nehaon u Rivli, u zemlji ematskoj da više ne caruje u Jerusalimu, i oglobi zemlju sto talanata srebra i talanat zlata.
33 Pharaoh Necoh put him in bonds at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
34 A carem postavi Faraon Nehaon Elijakima, sina Josijinog na mesto Josije oca njegovog, i prede mu ime Joakim; a Joahaza uze i otide u Misir, a on umre onde.
34 Pharaoh Necoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the place of Josiah his father, and changed his name to Jehoiakim; but he took Jehoahaz away, and he came to Egypt and died there.
35 A ono srebro i zlato dade Joakim Faraonu razrezavši na zemlju da bi dao novce po zapovesti Faraonovoj, od svakog uzimajući kako beše cenjen, srebro i zlato po narodu u zemlji, da da Faraonu Nehaonu.
35 Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh. He exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, from everyone according to his assessment, to give it to Pharaoh Necoh.
36 Dvadeset i pet godina beše Joakimu kad poče carovati, i carova jedanaest godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu beše ime Zevuda, kći Fedajeva, iz Rume.
36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zebidah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
37 A on činjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom sasvim kako su činili oci njegovi.
37 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that his fathers had done.
