1 Kraljevima 22
1 Tri je godine vladao mir; nije bilo rata između Aramejaca i Izraela.
Now for three years there was no war between Aram and Israel.
2 Treće godine Jošafat, kralj judejski, posjeti kralja izraelskoga.
And it came about in the third year, that Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, came down to the king of Israel.
3 Kralj Izraela reče svojim dvoranima: “Znate li da je Ramot Gilead naš? A mi ne poduzimamo ništa da ga otmemo iz ruke aramejskog kralja.”
And the king of Israel said to his servants, Do you not see that Ramoth-gilead is ours? and we are doing nothing to get it back from the hands of the king of Aram.
4 Zatim reče Jošafatu: “Hoćeš li poći sa mnom na Ramot Gilead?” Jošafat odgovori kralju izraelskom: “Ja sam kao i ti, moj narod kao i tvoj, moji konji što i tvoji.”
And he said to Jehoshaphat, Will you go with me to Ramoth-gilead to make war? And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as you are: my people as your people, my horses as your horses.
5 Tada Jošafat reče kralju izraelskom: “De posavjetuj se najprije s Jahvom.”
Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Let us now get directions from the Lord.
6 Tada kralj izraelski sakupi oko četiri stotine proroka i upita ih: “Mogu li zavojštiti na Ramot Gilead ili da se okanim toga?” Oni odgovoriše: “Idi, jer će ga Jahve predati kralju u ruke.”
So the king of Israel got all the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, Am I to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And they said, Go up: for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
7 Ali Jošafat upita: “Ima li ovdje još koji prorok Jahvin da i njega upitamo?”
But Jehoshaphat said, Is there no other prophet of the Lord here from whom we may get directions?
8 Kralj izraelski odgovori Jošafatu: “Ima još jedan čovjek preko koga bismo mogli upitati Jahvu, ali ga ne podnosim jer mi ne prorokuje ništa dobro nego samo zlo; to je Mihej, sin Jimlin.” A Jošafat reče: “Neka kralj ne govori tako!”
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, There is still one man by whom we may get directions from the Lord, Micaiah, son of Imlah; but I have no love for him, for he is a prophet of evil to me and not of good. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
9 Tada kralj izraelski dozva jednoga dvoranina i reče mu: “Brže dovedi Jimlina sina Miheja.”
Then the king of Israel sent for one of his unsexed servants and said, Go quickly and come back with Micaiah, the son of Imlah.
10 Izraelski kralj i judejski kralj Jošafat sjedili su svaki na svome prijestolju, u svečanim haljinama pred Samarijskim vratima, a proroci proricali pred njima.
Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were seated on their seats of authority, dressed in their robes, by the doorway into Samaria; and all the prophets were acting as prophets before them.
11 Kenaanin sin Sidkija napravi sebi željezne rogove i reče: “Ovako govori Jahve: 'Njima ćeš nabosti sve Aramejce dok ih ne uništiš'.”
And Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made himself horns of iron and said, The Lord says, Pushing back the Aramaeans with these, you will put an end to them completely.
12 Tako su i svi drugi proroci proricali govoreći: “Idi na Ramot Gilead i uspjet ćeš: Jahve će ga predati kralju u ruke.”
And all the prophets said the same thing, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and it will go well for you, for the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
13 Glasnik koji bijaše otišao da zove Miheja reče mu: “Eno, svi proroci složno proriču dobro kralju. Govori i ti kao jedan od njih i proreci mu uspjeh!”
Now the servant who had gone to get Micaiah said to him, See now, all the prophets with one voice are saying good things to the king; so let your words be like theirs and say good things.
14 Ali Mihej odvrati: “Živoga mi Jahve, govorit ću ono što mi Jahve kaže!”
And Micaiah said, By the living Lord, whatever the Lord says to me I will say.
15 Kad dođe pred kralja, upita ga kralj: “Miheju, da pođem u rat na Ramot Gilead ili da se okanim toga?” On odgovori: “Pođi! Uspjet ćeš: Jahve će ga dati u ruke kraljeve.”
When he came to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, are we to go to Ramoth-gilead to make war or not? And in answer he said, Go up, and it will go well for you; and the Lord will give it into the hands of the king.
16 Ali mu kralj reče: “Koliko ću te puta zaklinjati da mi kažeš samo istinu u Jahvino ime?”
Then the king said to him, Have I not, again and again, put you on your oath to say nothing to me but what is true in the name of the Lord?
17 Tada Mihej odgovori: “Sav Izrael vidim rasut po gorama kao stado bez pastira. I Jahve veli: 'Nemaju više gospodara, neka se u miru kući vrate.'”
Then he said, I saw all Israel wandering on the mountains like sheep without a keeper; and the Lord said, These have no master: let them go back, every man to his house in peace.
18 Tada izraelski kralj reče Jošafatu: “Nisam li ti rekao da mi neće proreći dobro nego zlo!”
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Did I not say that he would not be a prophet of good but of evil?
19 A Mihej reče: “Zato čuj riječ Jahvinu: vidio sam Jahvu gdje sjedi na svome prijestolju, a sva mu vojska nebeska stajaše zdesna i slijeva.
And he said, Give ear now to the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord seated on his seat of power, with all the army of heaven in their places round him at his right hand and at his left.
20 Jahve upita: 'Tko će zavesti Ahaba da otiđe i padne u Ramot Gileadu?' Jedan reče ovo, drugi ono.
And the Lord said, How may Ahab be tricked into going up to Ramoth-gilead to his death? And one said one thing and one another.
21 Tada uđe jedan duh i stade pred Jahvu. 'Ja ću ga', reče, 'zavesti.' Jahve ga upita: 'Kako?'
Then a spirit came forward and took his place before the Lord and said, I will get him to do it by a trick.
22 On odgovori: 'Izaći ću i bit ću lažljiv duh u ustima svih njegovih proroka.' Jahve reče: 'Ti ćeš ga zavesti. I uspjet ćeš. Idi i učini tako!'
And the Lord said, How? And he said, I will go out and be a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Your trick will have its effect on him: go out and do so.
23 Tako je, evo, Jahve stavio lažljiva duha u usta svih ovih tvojih proroka, ali ti Jahve navješćuje zlo.”
And now, see, the Lord has put a spirit of deceit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the Lord has said evil against you.
24 Tada pristupi Kenaanin sin Sidkija i udari Miheja po obrazu pitajući: “Zar je Jahvin duh napustio mene da bi s tobom govorio?”
Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, came near and gave Micaiah a blow on the side of the face, saying, Where is the spirit of the Lord whose word is in you?
25 Mihej odgovori: “Vidjet ćeš onoga dana kad budeš bježao iz sobe u sobu da se sakriješ.”
And Micaiah said, Truly, you will see on that day when you go into an inner room to keep yourself safe.
26 Tada izraelski kralj naredi: “Uhvati Miheja i odvedi ga gradskom zapovjedniku Amonu i kraljeviću Joašu.
And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah and send him back to Amon, the ruler of the town, and to Joash, the king's son;
27 Reci im: Ovako veli kralj: 'Bacite ovoga u tamnicu i držite ga na suhu kruhu i vodi dok se sretno ne vratim.'”
And say, It is the king's order that this man is to be put in prison and given prison food till I come again in peace.
28 Mihej reče: “Ako se doista sretno vratiš, onda Jahve nije govorio iz mene.” I nadoda: “Čujte, svi puci!”
And Micaiah said, If you come back at all in peace, the Lord has not sent his word by me.
29 Izraelski kralj i judejski kralj Jošafat krenuše na Ramot Gilead.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went up to Ramoth-gilead.
30 Izraelski kralj reče Jošafatu: “Ja ću se preobući i onda ući u boj, ali ti ostani u svojoj odjeći!” Izraelski se kralj preobuče i pođe u boj.
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will make a change in my clothing, so that I do not seem to be the king, and will go into the fight; but do you put on your robes. So the king of Israel made a change in his dress and went into the fight.
31 Aramejski kralj naredi zapovjednicima bojnih kola: “Ne napadajte ni na maloga ni na velikoga, nego jedino na izraelskog kralja!”
Now the king of Aram had given orders to the thirty-two captains of his war-carriages, saying, Make no attack on small or great, but only on the king of Israel.
32 Kad zapovjednici bojnih kola ugledaše Jošafata, rekoše: “To je kralj izraelski!” I krenuše u boj prema njemu. A Jošafat povika.
So when the captains of the war-carriages saw Jehoshaphat, they said, Truly, this is the king of Israel; and turning against him, they came round him, but Jehoshaphat gave a cry.
33 A kad zapovjednici bojnih kola vidješe da to nije izraelski kralj, okrenuše se od njega.
And when the captains of the war-carriages saw that he was not the king of Israel, they went back from going after him.
34 Jedan nasumce odape luk i ustrijeli izraelskog kralja između nabora pojasa i oklopa. Kralj reče vozaču: “Okreni, izvedi me iz boja jer mi nije dobro.”
And a certain man sent an arrow from his bow without thought of its direction, and gave the king of Israel a wound where his breastplate was joined to his clothing; so he said to the driver of his war-carriage, Go to one side and take me away out of the army, for I am badly wounded.
35 Boj je onoga dana bio sve žešći, ali se kralj držao uspravno na bojnim kolima prema Aramejcima. A navečer umrije. Krv se iz rane izlila u kola.
But the fight became more violent while the day went on; and the king was supported in his war-carriage facing the Aramaeans, and the floor of the carriage was covered with the blood from his wound, and by evening he was dead.
36 O zalasku sunčevu odjeknu glas taborom: “Svaki u svoj grad i svaki u svoju zemlju!
And about sundown a cry went up from all parts of the army, saying, Let every man go back to his town and his country, for the king is dead.
37 Kralj je poginuo!” Otišli su u Samariju i pokopali kralja u Samariji.
And they came to Samaria, and put the king's body to rest in Samaria.
38 Njegova su kola oprali u samarijskom ribnjaku, psi su lizali njegovu krv i bludnice se ondje kupale, po riječi koju je rekao Jahve.
And the war-carriage was washed by the pool of Samaria, which was the bathing-place of the loose women, and the dogs were drinking his blood there, as the Lord had said.
39 Ostala povijest Ahabova, sve što je učinio, o kući od bjelokosti, o svim gradovima koje je sagradio, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all he did, and his ivory house, and all the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
40 Ahab je počinuo sa svojim ocima, a njegov sin Ahazja zakralji se mjesto njega.
So Ahab was put to rest with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son became king in his place.
41 Jošafat, sin Asin, postade kraljem Judeje četvrte godine kraljevanja Ahaba, kralja izraelskoga.
And Jehoshaphat, the son of Asa, became king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab's rule over Israel.
42 Jošafatu bijaše trideset i pet godina kad se zakraljio; kraljevao je dvadeset i pet godina u Jeruzalemu; mati mu se zvala Azuba, a bila je kći Šilhijeva.
Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he was king for twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah, the daughter of Shilhi.
43 Išao je sasvim putem oca Ase, ne skrećući s njega, nego čineći što je pravo u očima Jahvinim. Samo, uzvišice nisu bile uklonjene, narod je još prinosio klanice i kađenice na uzvišicama.
He did as Asa his father had done, not turning away from it, but doing what was right in the eyes of the Lord; but the high places were not taken away: the people went on making offerings and burning them in the high places.
44 Jošafat je bio u miru s izraelskim kraljem.
And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 Ostala povijest Jošafatova, pothvati koje je izveo i kako je vojevao, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva judejskih?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his great power, and how he went to war, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
46 Istrijebio je iz zemlje preostale bludnice, koje su se održale iz vremena njegova oca Ase.
He put an end to the rest of those who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, all those who were still in the land in the time of his father Asa.
47 Nije bilo kralja u Edomu, nego je vladao namjesnik.
At that time there was no king in Edom;
48 Kralj Jošafat sagradi taršiško brodovlje da ide u Ofir po zlato, ali nije otišlo jer se brodovlje razbilo kod Esjon Gebera.
And the representative of King Jehoshaphat made a Tarshish-ship to go to Ophir for gold, but it did not go, because it was broken at Ezion-geber.
49 Tada Ahazja, sin Ahabov, reče Jošafatu: “Neka moje sluge pođu s tvojim slugama na lađama.” Ali Jošafat to ne prihvati.
Then Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, said to Jehoshaphat, Let my men go with yours in the ships. But Jehoshaphat would not let them.
50 Jošafat počinu sa svojim ocima i sahranjen bi u gradu Davida, svoga praoca. Na njegovo se mjesto zakraljio sin mu Joram.
Then Jehoshaphat went to rest with his fathers, and his body was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Jehoram his son became king in his place.
51 Ahazja, sin Ahabov, postade kraljem Izraela u Samariji sedamnaeste godine Jošafatova kraljevanja Judejom i kraljevao je dvije godine nad Izraelom.
Ahaziah, the son of Ahab, became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of the rule of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, and he was king over Israel for two years.
52 On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim i hodio je putem svoga oca i putem svoje majke i putem Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je navodio Izraela na grijeh.
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, going in the ways of his father and his mother, and in the ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who made Israel do evil.
53 Služio je Baalu i klanjao se pred njim. Srdio je Jahvu, Boga Izraelova, sasvim onako kako je činio njegov otac.
He was a servant and worshipper of Baal, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath, as his father had done.
