< 2 Kraljevima 4 >

1 Žena jednoga od proročkih sinova zamoli Elizeja ovako: “Tvoj sluga, moj muž, umro je; a znaš da se tvoj sluga bojao Jahve. Sada je došao vjerovnik da mi uzme oba sina i učini ih svojim robovima.”
And one of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried to Elisaie, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant feared the Lord: and the creditor is come to take my two sons to be his servants.
2 Elizej joj reče: “Što ti mogu učiniti! Reci mi što imaš u kući?” Ona odgovori: “Tvoja sluškinja nema ništa u kući, osim vrča ulja.”
And Elisaie said, What shall I do for thee? tell me what thou hast in the house. And she said, Thy servant has nothing in the house, except oil wherewith I anoint myself.
3 Tada joj reče: “Idi i posudi od svih svojih susjeda praznih sudova, ali neka ih ne bude premalo!
And he said to her, Go, borrow for thyself vessels without of all thy neighbours, [even] empty vessels; borrow not a few.
4 Zatim se vrati kući, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima i nalijevaj ulje u sve te sudove i pune stavljaj na stranu.”
And thou shalt go in and shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and thou shalt pour forth into these vessels, and remove that which is filled.
5 I ode ona od njega, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima. Oni su joj dodavali sudove, a ona ih punila.
And she departed from him, and shut the door upon herself and upon her sons: they brought the vessels near to her, and she poured in until the vessels were filled.
6 I kad se sudovi napuniše, reče ona svome sinu: “Dodaj mi još jedan sud!” Ali joj on odgovori: “Nema više sudova.” I ulje stade.
And she said to her sons, Bring me yet a vessel. And they said to her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
7 Ona ode i kaza čovjeku Božjem, a on joj reče: “Idi, prodaj ulje i podmiri svoj dug, a od ostatka živjet ćeš ti i tvoji sinovi!”
And she came and told the man of God: and Elisaie said, Go, and sell the oil, and thou shalt pay thy debts, and thou and thy sons shall live of the remaining oil.
8 Jednoga je dana Elizej prolazio kroza Šunam. A živjela ondje ugledna žena i ona ga pozva k stolu. Odonda, kad god prolazaše onuda, uvratio bi se k njoj na jelo.
And a day came, when Elisaie passed over to Soman, and [there was] a great lady there, and she constrained him to eat bread: and it came to pass as often as he went into [the city, that] he turned aside to eat there.
9 Ona reče svome mužu: “Evo, znam i vidim da je svet onaj čovjek Božji što prolazi ovuda.
And the woman said to her husband, See now, I know that this [is] a holy man of God who comes over continually to us.
10 Načinimo mu sobicu na krovu, stavimo mu ondje postelju, stol, stolicu i svjetiljku: kad dođe k nama, povući će se onamo.”
Let us now make for him an upper chamber, a small place; and let us put there for him a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall come to pass that when he comes in to us, he shall turn in thither.
11 Jednoga dana dođe on onamo, povuče se u gornju sobu i počinu ondje.
And a day came, and he went in thither, and turned aside into the upper chamber, and lay there.
12 Reče zatim svome momku Gehaziju: “Pozovi tu Šunamku!” On je pozva te ona stade preda nj.
And he said to Giezi his servant, Call me this Somanite. and he called her, and she stood before him.
13 I još mu reče: “Kaži joj: 'Lijepo se brineš za nas. Što možemo učiniti za te? Treba li reći riječ za te kralju ili vojskovođi?'” Ali ona odgovori: “Ja živim usred svoga naroda.”
And he said to him, Say now to her, Behold, thou hast taken all this trouble for us; what should I do for thee? Hast thou any request [to make] to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she said, I dwell in the midst of my people.
14 On nastavi: “Dakle, što da učinimo za nju?” Gehazi odgovori: “Eto, nema sina, a muž joj je vremešan.”
And he said to Giezi, What must we do for her? and Giezi his servant said, Indeed she has no son, and her husband [is] old.
15 A on reče: “Pozovi je!” Pozva je, a ona stade kod ulaza.
And he called her, and she stood by the door.
16 “Dogodine u ovo doba”, reče joj, “zagrlit ćeš sina u naručju.” A ona reče: “Ne, gospodaru moj, ne varaj službenice svoje!”
And Elisaie said to her, At this time [next year], as the season [is], thou [shalt be] alive, and embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, do not lie to thy servant.
17 Ali je žena doista zatrudnjela i rodila je sina druge godine u ono doba, kako joj je rekao Elizej.
And the woman conceived, and bore a son at the very time, as the season was, being alive, as Elisaie said to her.
18 Dječak je rastao. Jednoga dana ode ocu kod žetelaca.
And the child grew: and it came to pass when he went out to his father to the reapers,
19 I potuži se ocu: “Jao, glava, glava moja!” A otac zapovjedi jednom momku da ga odnese majci.
that he said to his father, My head, my head. and [his father] said to a servant, carry him to his mother.
20 On ga uze i odvede ga njegovoj majci. Na njenim je koljenima ostao do podne i onda umrije.
And he carried him to his mother, and he lay upon her knees till noon, and died.
21 Ona tada ode gore i položi ga u postelju Božjega čovjeka. Izišla je zatim i zaključala vrata.
And she carried him up and laid him on the bed of the man of god; and she shut the door upon him, and went out.
22 Potom je pozvala svoga muža i rekla: “Pošalji mi jednoga od momaka i jednu magaricu; otrčat ću do čovjeka Božjeg i vratit ću se.”
And she called her husband, and said, Send now for me one of the young men, and one of the asses, and I will ride quickly to the man of God, and return.
23 On je upita: “Zašto da danas pođeš k njemu? Nije ni mlađak niti je subota.” Ali ona odgovori: “Ostaj u miru!”
And he said, Why art thou going to him to-day? It is neither new moon, nor the Sabbath. And she said, [It is] well.
24 Pošto joj je momak osamario magaricu, ona će mu: “Povedi i pođi! Ne zadržavaj me na putu, osim ako ti naredim.”
And she saddled the ass, and said to her servant, Be quick, proceed: spare not on my account to ride, unless I shall tell thee. Go, and thou shalt proceed, and come to the man of God to mount Carmel.
25 Ode ona i dođe k čovjeku Božjem, na goru Karmel. Kada je čovjek Božji ugleda izdaleka, reče svome momku Gehaziju: “Evo one Šunamke.
And she rode and came to the man of God to the mountain: and it came to pass when Elisaie saw her coming, that he said to Giezi his servant, See now, that Somanite comes.
26 Otrči pred nju i pitaj je: 'Kako si? Je li ti muž dobro? Je li ti dijete zdravo?'” Ona odgovori: “Zdravi smo.”
Now run to meet her, and thou shalt say, [Is it] well with thee? [is it] well with thy husband? [is it] well with the child? and she said, [It is] well.
27 Kada je stigla do čovjeka Božjega na gori, obujmi mu noge. Gehazi pristupi da je odmakne, ali mu čovjek Božji reče: “Pusti je jer joj je duša ojađena. Jahve mi krije, nije mi ništa objavio.”
And she came to Elisaie to the mountain, and laid hold of his feet; and Giezi drew near to thrust her away. And Elisaie said, Let her alone, for her soul [is] much grieved in her, and the Lord has hidden [it] from me, and has not told [it] me.
28 A ona reče: “Zar sam ja tražila sina od svoga gospodara? Nisam li ti govorila da me ne zavaravaš?”
And she said, Did I ask a son of my lord? For did I not say, Do not deal deceitfully with me?
29 On tada reče Gehaziju: “Opaši se, uzmi u ruku moj štap pa idi! Ako koga susretneš, ne pozdravljaj ga; ako te tko pozdravi, ne odzdravljaj mu. Moj štap položi na dječaka.”
And Elisaie said to Giezi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go: if thou meet any man, thou shalt not salute him, and if a man salute thee thou shalt not answer him: and thou shalt lay my staff on the child's face.
30 Ali dječakova majka reče: “Života mi Jahvina i tvoga, neću te ostaviti!” On tada ustade i pođe za njom.
And the mother of the child said, [As] the Lord lives and [as] thy soul lives, I will not leave thee. And Elisaie arose, and went after her.
31 Gehazi je otišao prije njih i položio štap na dječaka, ali ne bješe ni glasa ni odziva. Vrati se on pred Elizeja i javi mu: “Dječak se nije probudio.”
And Giezi went on before her, and laid his staff on the child's face: but there was neither voice nor any hearing. So he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.
32 Elizej uđe u kuću i nađe dječaka gdje mrtav leži na njegovoj postelji.
And Elisaie went into the house, and, behold, the dead child was laid upon his bed.
33 Ušavši, zatvori vrata za sobom i pomoli se Jahvi.
And Elisaie went into the house, and shut the door upon themselves, the two, and prayed to the Lord.
34 Zatim se pope na postelju, leže na dječaka, položi svoja usta na njegova usta, svoje oči na njegove oči, svoje ruke na njegove ruke; disao je nad njim te se ugrijalo tijelo dječakovo.
And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands; and bowed himself upon him, and the flesh of the child grew warm.
35 Potom ustade i prošeta se po kući tamo-amo, zatim se opet pope i disaše nad njim. A dječak tada kihnu sedam puta i otvori oči.
And he returned, and walked up and down in the house: and he went up, and bowed himself on the child seven times; and the child opened his eyes.
36 I zovnu Elizej Gehazija i reče: “Pozovi tu Šunamku.” On je pozva. Kad je stigla preda nj, reče joj: “Uzmi svoga sina.”
And Elisaie cried out to Giezi, and said, Call this Somanite. So he called her, and she came in to him: and Elisaie said, Take thy son.
37 Ona, ušavši, pade mu pred noge i pokloni se do zemlje. Zatim uze svoga sina te iziđe.
And the woman went in, and fell at his feet, and did obeisance [bowing] to the ground; and she took her son, and went out.
38 Elizej se vrati u Gilgal, a bijaše glad u zemlji. I kad su proročki sinovi sjedili pred njim, reče svome momku: “Stavi veliki lonac na vatru i skuhaj jelo sinovima proročkim.”
And Elisaie returned to Galgala: and a famine [was] in the land; and the sons of the prophets sat before him: and Elisaie said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil pottage for the sons of the prophets.
39 Jedan od njih ode u polje da nabere zelja, ali nađe divlju povijušu i nabra s nje punu haljinu gorkih plodova. Vrati se i nareza ih u lonac, jer nije znao kakvi su.
And he went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a vine in the field, and gathered of it wild gourds, his garment full; and he cast it into the caldron of pottage, for they knew [them] not.
40 Usuše ljudima da jedu. Ali kad su počeli jesti, povikaše: “Čovječe Božji! Smrt je u loncu!” I nisu mogli jesti.
And he poured it out for the men to eat: and it came to pass, when they were eating of the pottage, that lo! they cried out, and said, [There is] death in the pot, O man of God. And they could not eat.
41 Tada će Elizej: “Donesite brašna!” I baci ga u lonac i reče: “Uspite ljudima neka jedu!” I ništa više nije bilo štetno u loncu.
And he said, Take meal, and cast it into the pot. And Elisaie said to his servant Giezi, Pour out for the people, and let them eat. And there was no longer there any hurtful thing in the pot.
42 Neki čovjek došao iz Baal Šališe i donio čovjeku Božjem kruh od prvina, dvadeset ječmenih hljebova i kaše u torbi. A on zapovjedi: “Daj ljudima neka jedu!”
And there came a man over from Baetharisa, and brought to the man of God twenty barley loaves and cakes of figs, of the first-fruits. And he said, Give to the people, and let them eat.
43 Ali njegov momak odgovori: “Kako to mogu postaviti pred stotinu ljudi?” On odgovori: “Podaj ljudima i neka jedu, jer ovako veli Jahve: 'Jest će i preostat će.'”
And his servant said, Why should I set this before a hundred men? and he said, Give to the people, and let them eat; for thus saith the Lord, They shall eat and leave.
44 I postavi on pred njih. I jedoše i još preosta, prema riječi Jahvinoj.
And they ate and left, according to the word of the Lord.
