1 A neki čovjek Božji dođe na riječ Jahvinu iz Judeje u Betel kada Jeroboam stajaše pred žrtvenikom da prinese kad.
And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar — to make perfume;
2 I po Jahvinoj zapovijedi povika onaj prema žrtveniku: “Žrtveniče, žrtveniče! Ovako veli Jahve: 'Evo će se roditi u kući Davidovoj sin po imenu Jošija. On će na tebi žrtvovati svećenike uzvišica, te koji na tebi prinose kad, i on će na tebi spaliti ljudske kosti!'”
and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, 'Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David — Josiah his name — and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on thee.'
3 U isto im vrijeme dade znak: “Ovo je znak da je Jahve govorio: gle, žrtvenik će se raspuknuti i prosut će se pepeo što je na njemu.”
And he hath given on that day a sign, saying, 'This [is] the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that [are] on it.'
4 Kada je kralj čuo što je čovjek Božji rekao protiv žrtvenika u Betelu, pruži ruku odande od žrtvenika i reče: “Uhvatite ga!” Ali se osušila ruka koju je ispružio prema čovjeku i nije je mogao vratiti k sebi.
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, 'Catch him;' and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto him,
5 Žrtvenik se raspuknuo i pepeo se prosuo sa žrtvenika, prema znaku što ga je dao čovjek Božji po naredbi Jahvinoj.
and the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
6 Kralj progovori i reče čovjeku Božjem: “Umilostivi Jahvu, Boga svoga, da bih mogao vratiti ruku k sebi.” Božji čovjek umilostivi Jahvu i ruka se kraljeva vrati k njemu i bila je kao prije.
And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, 'Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;' and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.
7 Kralj onda reče čovjeku Božjem: “Hodi sa mnom kući da se okrijepiš. I dat ću ti dar.”
And the king speaketh unto the man of God, 'Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.'
8 Ali čovjek Božji odgovori kralju: “Da mi dadeš polovinu svoje kuće, ne bih pošao s tobom. Ni jeo ni pio ne bih na ovom mjestu,
And the man of God saith unto the king, 'If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;
9 jer mi je ovako zapovjeđeno riječju Jahvinom: 'Ne jedi kruha i ne pij vode, niti se vraćaj istim putem kojim si došao.'”
for so He commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.'
10 I otišao je drugim putem, nije se vraćao putem kojim je došao u Betel.
And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.
11 A u Betelu živio star prorok. Došli njemu njegovi sinovi te mu pripovjedili sve što je onoga dana učinio čovjek Božji u Betelu; i riječi što ih je onaj kazao kralju pripovjediše sinovi ocu.
And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son cometh and recounteth to him all the deed that the man of God hath done to-day in Beth-El, the words that he hath spoken unto the king, — yea, they recount them to their father.
12 A on ih upita: “Kojim je putem otišao?” Sinovi pokazaše put kojim je otišao čovjek Božji što bijaše došao iz Judeje.
And their father saith unto them, 'Where [is] this — the way he hath gone?' and his sons see the way that the man of God hath gone who came from Judah.
13 Prorok će nato sinovima: “Osamarite mi magarca!” I osamariše mu magarca, a on uzjaha.
And he saith unto his sons, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle for him the ass, and he rideth on it,
14 Krenuo je za čovjekom Božjim i našao ga gdje sjedi pod hrastom; i upita ga: “Jesi li ti čovjek Božji koji je došao iz Judeje?” A on mu odgovori: “Jesam.”
and goeth after the man of God, and findeth him sitting under the oak, and saith unto him, 'Art thou the man of God who hast come from Judah?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
15 Prorok mu reče: “Hodi sa mnom mome domu da štogod pojedeš.”
And he saith unto him, 'Come with me to the house, and eat bread.'
16 Ali on odgovori: “Ne smijem se vratiti s tobom, niti smijem jesti kruha ni piti vode na ovome mjestu,
And he saith, 'I am not able to turn back with thee, and to go in with thee, nor do I eat bread or drink with thee water in this place,
17 jer mi je Jahvinom riječju naređeno ovo: 'Ne jedi ondje kruha, ne pij vode, niti se vraćaj putem kojim si onamo pošao'.”
for a word [is] unto me by the word of Jehovah, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink there water, thou dost not turn back to go in the way in which thou camest.'
18 Nato će mu onaj: “I ja sam prorok kao i ti, i anđeo mi je riječju Jahvinom rekao: 'Povedi ga sa sobom kući da jede kruha i pije vode.'” Slagao mu je.
And he saith to him, 'I also [am] a prophet like thee, and a messenger spake unto me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, and he doth eat bread and drink water;' — he hath lied to him.
19 Božji čovjek vrati se s njim, u njegovoj je kući jeo kruha i pio vode.
And he turneth back with him, and eateth bread in his house, and drinketh water.
20 Dok su sjedili za stolom, dođe riječ Jahvina proroku koji ga je natrag doveo
And it cometh to pass — they are sitting at the table — and a word of Jehovah is unto the prophet who brought him back,
21 i povika on čovjeku Božjem koji je došao iz Judeje: “Ovako veli Jahve: zato što nisi poslušao zapovijedi Jahvine i nisi držao naredbe koju ti je dao Jahve, Bog tvoj,
and he calleth unto the man of God who came from Judah, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the command that Jehovah thy God charged thee,
22 nego si se vratio, jeo kruha i pio vode na mjestu gdje sam ti rekao da ne jedeš kruha i ne piješ vode, zato tijelo tvoje neće leći u grob otaca tvojih.”
and turnest back and dost eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said unto thee, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water — thy carcase cometh not in unto the burying-place of thy fathers.'
23 Pošto se onaj koga bijaše doveo najeo kruha i napio vode, osedla mu magarca.
And it cometh to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddleth for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
24 I ode onaj. A na putu ga zaskoči lav i usmrti ga. I tako je mrtvo tijelo ležalo ispruženo na putu, magarac stajao kraj njega, a i lav stajaše kraj tijela.
and he goeth, and a lion findeth him in the way, and putteth him to death, and his carcase is cast in the way, and the ass is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcase.
25 Ljudi prolazeći vidješe mrtvo tijelo ispruženo na putu i lava gdje stoji kraj njega; i odoše i javiše to u gradu gdje je živio stari prorok.
And lo, men are passing by, and see the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcase, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
26 Kad je to čuo prorok koji bijaše onoga vratio s puta, reče: “To je čovjek Božji koji se usprotivio riječi Jahvinoj! I Jahve ga je predao lavu, koji ga je napao i ubio, prema riječi koju je Jahve rekao.”
And the prophet who brought him back out of the way heareth and saith, 'It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth him to the lion, and it destroyeth him, and putteth him to death, according to the word of Jehovah that he spake to him.'
27 I reče svojim sinovima: “Osamarite mi magarca!” I oni mu ga osamariše.
And he speaketh unto his sons saying, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle [it].
28 Ode on i nađe mrtvo tijelo bačeno na putu i magarca i lava gdje stoje pokraj tijela: lav nije požderao tijelo niti je rastrgao magarca.
And he goeth and findeth his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion are standing near the carcase — the lion hath not eaten the carcase nor destroyed the ass.
29 Tada prorok podiže mrtvo tijelo čovjeka Božjeg i prebaci ga na magarca; i vrati se u grad gdje je živio da mrtvoga ožali i pokopa.
And the prophet taketh up the carcase of the man of God, and placeth it on the ass, and bringeth it back, and the old prophet cometh in unto the city to mourn and to bury him,
30 Položio je mrtvo tijelo u svoju grobnicu i jecao je nad njim: “Jao, brate moj!”
and he placeth his carcase in his own grave, and they mourn for him, 'Oh, my brother!'
31 A kad ga je pokopao, reče svojim sinovima: “Poslije moje smrti sahranite me u istu grobnicu gdje je pokopan čovjek Božji; stavite moje kosti kraj njegovih.
And it cometh to pass, after his burying him, that he speaketh unto his sons, saying, 'At my death — ye have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; near his bones place my bones;
32 Jer će se sigurno ispuniti riječ koju je po zapovijedi Jahvinoj objavio protiv žrtvenika u Betelu i protiv svih svetišta na uzvišicama u gradovima Samarije.”
for the word certainly cometh to pass that he called by the word of Jehovah concerning the altar which [is] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.'
33 Ni poslije ovoga događaja ne obrati se Jeroboam za svoga zlog puta, nego je i dalje priproste ljude postavljao za svećenike na uzvišicama: tko je želio, davao mu je darove da postane svećenik uzvišica.
After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
34 Takvim je postupkom padala u grijeh kuća Jeroboamova, rušila se i nestajala s lica zemlje.
And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
