2 Kraljevima 1
1 Poslije smrti Ahabove pobuni se Moab protiv Izraela.
And Moab rebelled against Israel, after the death of Achab.
2 Kako Ahazja bijaše pao preko prozorske rešetke svoje gornje odaje u Samariji i ozlijedio se, posla glasnike kojima reče: “Idite, pitajte Baal Zebuba, boga ekronskog, hoću li ozdraviti od ove bolesti.”
And Ochozias fell through the lattices of his upper chamber which he had in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, saying to them: Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my illness.
3 Ali je Anđeo Jahvin rekao Iliji Tišbijcu: “Ustani! Idi u susret glasnicima samarijanskoga kralja i reci im: 'Zar nema Boga u Izraelu te se idete savjetovati s Baal Zebubom, bogom ekronskim?'
And an angel of the Lord spoke to Elias the Thesbite, saying: Arise, and go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say to them: Is there not a God in Israel, that ye go to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron?
4 I zato veli Jahve ovako: 'Nećeš sići s postelje u koju si se popeo; sigurno ćeš umrijeti.'” I ode Ilija.
Wherefore thus saith the Lord: From the bed, on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die. And Elias went away.
5 Glasnici se vratiše k Ahazji, a on im reče: “Kako to da ste se već vratili?”
And the messengers turned back to Ochozias. And he said to them: Why are you come back?
6 Oni mu odgovoriše: “Sreo nas neki čovjek i rekao nam: 'Idite, vratite se pred kralja koji vas je poslao i recite mu: Ovako veli Jahve: Zar nema Boga u Izraelu te si poslao po savjet k Baal Zebubu, bogu ekronskom? Zato nećeš sići s postelje na koju si se popeo, nego ćeš umrijeti.'”
But they answered him: A man met us, and said to us: Go, and return to the king, that sent you, and you shall say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that thou sendest to Beelzebub the god of Accaron? Therefore thou shalt not come down from the bed, on which thou art gone up, but then shalt surely die.
7 On ih upita: “Kakav bijaše na oči taj čovjek koji vas je sreo i rekao vam te riječi?”
And he said to them: What manner of man was he who met you, and spoke these words?
8 A oni mu odgovoriše: “Bio je to čovjek u kožuhu i s kožnim pojasom oko bedara.” On reče: “To je Ilija Tišbijac!”
But they said: A hairy man with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said: It is Elias the Thesbite.
9 Tada mu posla pedesetnika s njegovom pedesetoricom i ode taj k njemu i, našavši ga gdje sjedi na vrhu brijega, reče mu: “Čovječe Božji! Kralj je naredio: Siđi!”
And he sent to him a captain of fifty, and the fifty men that were under him. And he went up to him, and as he was sitting on the top of a hill, said to him: Man of God, the king hath commanded that thou come down.
10 Ilija odgovori i reče pedesetniku: “Ako sam čovjek Božji, neka oganj siđe s neba i neka te proguta, tebe i tvoju pedesetoricu.” I oganj se spusti s neba i proguta ga, njega i njegovu pedesetoricu.
And Elias answering, said to the captain of fifty: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee, and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him, and the fifty that were with him.
11 Kralj mu posla drugoga pedesetnika i njegovu pedesetoricu; a taj, kad dođe, reče mu: “Čovječe Božji! Kralj je ovo zapovjedio: Brže siđi!”
And again he sent to him another captain of fifty men, and his fifty with him. And he said to him: Man of God, thus saith the king: Make haste and come down.
12 Ilija odgovori i reče mu: “Ako sam čovjek Božji, neka siđe oganj s neba i proguta tebe i tvoju pedesetoricu.” I spusti se oganj s neba i proguta ga, njega i njegovu pedesetoricu.
Elias answering, said: If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And fire came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.
13 Kralj posla opet trećega pedesetnika i njegovu pedesetoricu. Treći pedesetnik dođe, prignu koljena pred Ilijom i zamoli ga ovako: “Čovječe Božji! Neka bude dragocjen u tvojim očima moj život i život ovih pedeset tvojih slugu!
Again he sent a third captain of fifty men, and the fifty that were with him. And when he was come, he fell upon his knees, before Elias, and besought him and said: Man of God, despise not my life, and the lives of thy servants that are with me.
14 Oganj se spustio s neba i progutao je oba pedesetnika s njihovom pedesetoricom; ali sada neka barem moj život bude dragocjen u tvojim očima!”
Behold fire came down from heaven, and consumed the two first captains of fifty men, and the fifties that were with them: but now I beseech thee to spare my life.
15 Anđeo Jahvin reče Iliji: “Siđi s njim, ne boj se!” On ustade i siđe s njim pred kralja
And the angel of the Lord spoke to Elias, saying: Go down with him, fear not. He arose therefore, and went down with him to the king,
16 i reče mu: “Ovako veli Jahve: zato što si slao glasnike Baal Zebubu, bogu ekronskom, po savjet, nećeš sići s postelje na koju si se popeo, nego ćeš umrijeti.”
And said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast sent messengers to consult Beelzebub the god of Accaron, as though there were not a God in Israel, of whom thou mightest inquire the word; therefore from the bed on which thou art gone up, thou shalt not come down, but thou shalt surely die.
17 I umrije po riječi Jahvinoj koju je objavio Ilija. A Joram, njegov brat, zakralji se mjesto njega druge godine Jorama, sina Jošafata, judejskoga kralja, jer ovaj nije imao sinova.
So he died according to the word of the Lord which Elias spoke, and Joram his brother reigned in his stead, in the second year of Joram the son of Josaphat king of Juda: because he had no son.
18 Ostala povijest Ahazje, sve što je učinio, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
But the rest of the acts of Ochozias which he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
