< 2 Kraljevima 7 >

1 Elizej reče tada: “Čuj riječ Jahvinu! Ovako veli Jahve: 'Sutra će u ovo doba na vratima Samarije biti mjera finoga brašna za šekel, a dvije mjere ječmenog brašna za šekel.'”
Then Elisha saide, Heare ye the worde of the Lord: thus saith the Lord, To morowe this time a measure of fine floure shalbe solde for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel in the gate of Samaria.
2 Dvorjanik, o čiju se ruku kralj oslanjao, odgovori čovjeku Božjemu: “I kad bi Jahve načinio okna na nebu, bi li to moglo biti?” A Elizej odgovori: “Vidjet ćeš svojim očima, ali nećeš jesti.”
Then a prince, on whose hande the King leaned, answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, could this thing come to passe? And he said, Beholde, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.
3 A pred gradskim vratima bijahu četiri gubavca; rekoše oni jedan drugome: “Zašto stojimo ovdje i očekujemo smrt?
Nowe there were foure leprous men at the entring in of the gate: and they saide one to an other, Why sitte we here vntill we die?
4 Ako odlučimo ući u grad, glad je u gradu te ćemo ondje umrijeti; ako ostanemo ovdje, opet ćemo umrijeti. Hajde! Pobjegnimo i prijeđimo u aramejski tabor: ako nas ostave na životu, živjet ćemo; ako nas ubiju, pa dobro: umrijet ćemo!”
If we say, We will enter into the citie, the famine is in the citie, and we shall die there: and if we sit here, we dye also. Nowe therefore come, and let vs fall into the campe of the Aramites: if they saue our liues, we shall liue: and if they kill vs, we are but dead.
5 U sumračje, ustavši, krenuše odande u aramejski tabor. Stigoše do ruba tabora, i gle - ondje nikoga!
So they rose vp in the twilight, to goe to the campe of the Aramites: and when they were come to the vtmost part of the campe of the Aramites, loe, there was no man there.
6 Jer je Jahve učinio te se u taboru aramejskom čula buka kola i konja, buka goleme vojske. I govorili su među sobom: “Eto, kralj Izraela najmio je protiv nas kraljeve hetitske i kraljeve egipatske da krenu protiv nas.”
For the Lord had caused the campe of the Aramites to heare a noyse of charets and a noise of horses, and a noise of a great armie, so that they sayde one to another, Beholde, the King of Israel hath hired against vs the Kings of the Hittites, and the Kings of the Egyptians to come vpon vs.
7 Digli su se i pobjegli u sumraku: ostavili su svoje šatore, konje i magarce, sav tabor kakav bijaše. Pobjegli su da iznesu živu glavu.
Wherefore they arose, and fled in the twilight, and left their tentes and their horses, and their asses, euen the campe as it was, and fledde for their liues.
8 Kad su gubavci, dakle, došli do ruba tabora, uvukoše se u jedan šator. Pošto su se najeli i napili, uzeše odande srebro, zlato i haljine pa odoše da ih sakriju. Vratiše se onda pa uđoše u drugi šator: uzeše plijen iz njega te odoše i sakriše ga.
And when these lepers came to the vtmost part of the campe, they entred into one tent, and did eate and drinke, and caryed thence siluer and golde, and raiment, and went and hid it: after they returned, and entred into another tent, and caryed thence also, and went and hid it.
9 Rekoše tada jedan drugome: “Ne smijemo tako raditi. Današnji je dan pun dobrih vijesti, a mi šutimo. Ako dočekamo jutro, bit ćemo krivi. Zato pođimo! Javimo dvoru novost.”
Then saide one to another, We doe not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we holde our peace. if we tary till day light, some mischiefe will come vpon vs. Nowe therefore, come, let vs goe, and tell the Kings housholde.
10 I vratiše se, pozvaše gradsku stražu i javiše: “Otišli smo u tabor aramejski, a ondje nigdje čovjeka ni ljudskoga glasa; samo konji privezani i magarci, a šatori ostavljeni kakvi jesu.”
So they came, and called vnto the porters of the citie, and tolde them, saying, We came to the campe of the Aramites, and loe, there was no man there, neither voyce of man, but horses tyed and asses tyed: and the tents are as they were.
11 Stražari viknuše i dojaviše u unutrašnjost dvora.
And the porters cryed and declared to the Kings house within.
12 Kralj ustade noću i reče svojim časnicima: “Ja ću vam objasniti što su nam učinili Aramejci. Kako znaju da smo gladni, izišli su iz tabora i sakrili se u polju, misleći: već će oni izići iz grada, a mi ćemo ih žive pohvatati i ući u grad.”
Then the King arose in the night, and saide vnto his seruants, I wil shew you now, what the Aramites haue done vnto vs. They know that we are affamished, therefore they are gone out of the campe to hide them selues in the fielde, saying, When they come out of the citie, we shall catch them aliue, and get into the citie.
13 A jedan između njegovih časnika odgovori: “Neka se uzme ipak pet od preostalih konja. S njima će biti kao sa svim mnoštvom Izraelovim koje je ovdje preostalo. Pošaljimo ih pa ćemo vidjeti.”
And one of his seruants answered, and said, Let me take now fiue of the horses that remaine, and are left in the citie, (behold, they are euen as all the multitude of Israel that are left therein: beholde, I say, they are as the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed) and we wil send to see.
14 I uzeše dva konja kolska i kralj posla ljude za aramejskim taborom govoreći: “Idite, izvidite!”
So they tooke two charets of horses, and the King sent after the hoste of the Aramites, saying, Goe and see.
15 Išli su za njima do Jordana; put bijaše sav prekriven haljinama i stvarima koje su Aramejci pobacali u bijegu. Glasnici se vratiše i obavijestiše kralja.
And they went after them vnto Iorden, and loe, all the way was full of clothes and vessels which the Aramites had cast from them in their hast: and the messengers returned, and told ye King.
16 I narod iziđe i uze pljačkati aramejski tabor: i bijaše mjera finoga brašna za šekel, a dvije mjere ječmenoga za jedan šekel, prema riječi Jahvinoj.
Then the people went out and spoyled the campe of the Aramites: so a measure of fine floure was at a shekel, and two measures of barley at a shekel according to the word of the Lord.
17 Kralj je postavio na gradska vrata onoga dvorjanika o čiju se ruku oslanjao; a narod ga izgazi na vratima i on umrije, prema riječi što ju je rekao Božji čovjek kad mu kralj bijaše došao.
And the King gaue the prince (on whose hande he leaned) the charge of the gate, and the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed, as the man of God had saide, which spake it, when the King came downe to him.
18 Dogodilo se kako je čovjek Božji rekao kralju: “Sutra u ovo doba na vratima Samarije bit će dvije mjere ječmenoga brašna za šekel i mjera finoga brašna za šekel.”
And it came to passe, as the man of God had spoken to the King, saying, Two measures of barley at a shekel, and a measure of fine floure shall be at a shekel, to morowe about this time in the gate of Samaria.
19 Dvorjanik je odgovorio Elizeju: “Pa da Jahve načini i okna na nebu, bi li moglo biti što kažeš?” Elizej mu je odgovorio: “Vidjet ćeš svojim očima, ali nećeš jesti.”
But the prince had answered the man of God, and saide, Though the Lord would make windowes in the heauen, coulde it come so to passe? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not eate thereof.
20 I doista, tako mu se dogodilo: izgazio ga narod na vratima te on umrije.
And so it came vnto him: for the people trode vpon him in the gate, and he dyed.
