2 Kraljevima 9
1 Prorok Elizej pozva jednoga od proročkih sinova i reče mu: “Opaši se, uzmi sa sobom ovu posudu s uljem pa idi u Ramot Gilead.
And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up thy loins, and take this vial of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramoth-Gilead.
2 Kad onamo stigneš, potraži Jehua, sina Jošafatova, sina Nimšijeva. Kad ga nađeš, izvedi ga između njegovih drugova i uvedi ga u pokrajnju sobu.
And when thou art come thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him rise up from among his brethren, and bring him to an inner chamber;
3 I uzmi posudu s uljem, izlij mu je na glavu i reci: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja izraelskoga.' Zatim otvori vrata i bježi, ne oklijevaj.”
then take the vial of oil, and pour it on his head and say, Thus saith Jehovah: I have anointed thee king over Israel; and open the door, and flee, and tarry not.
4 Tada mladi prorok ode u Ramot Gilead.
And the young man, the young prophet, went to Ramoth-Gilead.
5 Kad je stigao, zapovjednici vojske upravo su sjedili na okupu. On reče: “Imam ti riječ reći, zapovjedniče!” Jehu upita: “Komu od nas?” On odgovori: “Tebi, zapovjedniče!”
And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting. And he said, I have an errand to thee, captain. And Jehu said, To which of all of us? And he said, To thee, captain.
6 Jehu tada ustade i uđe u kuću. Mladi mu čovjek izli ulje na glavu i reče mu: “Ovako veli Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Jahvinim narodom, nad Izraelom.
And he rose up and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: I have anointed thee king over the people of Jehovah, over Israel.
7 Ti ćeš pobiti obitelj Ahaba, gospodara tvoga, a ja ću osvetiti krv svojih slugu proroka i krv sviju službenika Jahvinih na Izebeli
And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master; and I will avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of Jehovah at the hand of Jezebel.
8 i na svoj obitelji Ahabovoj. Iskorijenit ću Ahabu sve što mokri uza zid, robove i slobodnjake u Izraelu.
And the whole house of Ahab shall perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.
9 Učinit ću s domom Ahabovim kao s domom Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, i kao s domom Baše, sina Ahijina.
And I will make the house of Ahab as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and as the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah.
10 A Izebelu će proždrijeti psi na polju jizreelskom i nitko je neće pokopati.'” - Zatim otvori vrata i pobježe.
And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the plot of Jizreel, and none shall bury her. And he opened the door and fled.
11 Jehu iziđe k časnicima svoga gospodara. Oni ga upitaše: “Je li sve u miru? Zašto je ta budala dolazila k tebi?” On im odgovori: “Znate čovjeka i besjedu njegovu.”
And Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord. And one said to him, Is all well? why came this madman to thee? And he said to them, Ye know the man, and his mind.
12 Oni rekoše: “Ne znamo! Kazuj nam!” On im reče: “Govorio mi je tako i tako i rekao mi: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Izraelom.'”
And they said, It is false! tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spoke he to me saying, Thus saith Jehovah: I have anointed thee king over Israel.
13 Odmah oni uzeše svoje ogrtače i prostriješe ih pred njim po stepenicama, zatrubiše u rogove i povikaše: “Jehu je kralj!”
Then they hasted and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the very stairs, and blew with trumpets, and said, Jehu is king!
14 Tako Jehu, sin Jošafata, sina Nimšijeva, skova urotu protiv Jorama - Joram je tada branio Ramot Gilead sa svim Izraelcima protiv Hazaela, aramejskog kralja.
And Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat, son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram kept Ramoth-Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria;
15 Ali se kralj Joram vratio u Jizreel da liječi rane koje su mu zadali Aramejci u boju s Hazaelom, aramejskim kraljem. - I reče Jehu: “Ako vam je po volji, neka nitko ne utekne iz grada da odnese vijest u Jizreel.”
and king Joram had returned to be healed in Jizreel of the wounds that the Syrians had given him, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your will, let not a fugitive escape out of the city to go to tell [it] in Jizreel.
16 Jehu se tada pope na kola i ode prema Jizreelu, jer je Joram ondje bolovao, i Ahazja, kralj judejski, došao ga posjetiti.
And Jehu rode in a chariot and went to Jizreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
17 Stražar koji je stajao na kuli u Jizreelu, videći da dolazi Jehuova četa, javi: “Vidim nekakvu četu.” Joram naredi: “Uzmi konjanika i pošalji ga pred njih da upita: je li sve s mirom.”
And the watchman stood on the tower in Jizreel, and saw Jehu's company as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?
18 Ode konjanik preda nj i reče: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.” Stražar javi: “Glasnik je stigao do njih, ali se ne vraća.”
So there went one on horseback to meet him; and he said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told saying, The messenger came to them, and he does not return.
19 Kralj posla drugoga konjanika. Taj dođe k njima i upita: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu mu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.”
And he sent out a second on horseback; and he came to them and said, Thus saith the king: Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.
20 Stražar opet javi: “Došao je do njih, ali se ne vraća. A vožnja je kao vožnja Jehua, sina Nimšijeva: vozi kao mahnit!”
And the watchman told saying, He came to them, and does not return. And the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he drives furiously.
21 Joram reče: “Preži!” I upregoše u njegova kola. Joram, kralj Izraela, i judejski kralj Ahazja iziđoše, svaki u svojim kolima, u susret Jehuu. Susretoše ga u polju Nabota Jizreelca.
Then Joram said, Make ready! And they made ready his chariot. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot; and they went out to meet Jehu, and met him in the plot of Naboth the Jizreelite.
22 Kad Joram ugleda Jehua, upita ga: “Je li sve u miru, Jehu?” Ovaj odgovori: “Kakvu miru dok traju bludništva tvoje majke Izebele i njena mnoga čaranja!”
And it came to pass when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he said, What peace, so long as the fornications of thy mother Jezebel and her sorceries are so many?
23 Joram okrenu i udari u bijeg govoreći Ahazji: “Izdaja, Ahazja!”
Then Joram turned his hand, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, Treachery, Ahaziah!
24 Jehu se lati luka, ustrijeli Jorama među pleća: strijela mu prođe posred srca te se on sruši u kola.
And Jehu took his bow in his hand, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out through his heart; and he sank down in his chariot.
25 Jehu reče svome dvorjaniku Bidkaru: “Digni ga i baci na njivu Nabota Jizreelca. Sjeti se: kad smo ja i ti jahali za njegovim ocem Ahabom, kako Jahve izreče protiv njega:
And he said to Bidkar his captain, Take him up [and] cast him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jizreelite. For remember how, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, that Jehovah laid this burden upon him:
26 'Kunem se: kako sinoć vidjeh krv Nabotovu i krv njegovih sinova,' riječ je Jahvina, 'tako ću ti vratiti isto na ovome polju,' riječ je Jahvina. Digni ga, dakle, i baci ga na to polje, prema riječi Jahvinoj.”
Certainly I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith Jehovah; and I will requite thee in this plot, saith Jehovah. And now, take [and] cast him into the plot, according to the word of Jehovah.
27 Kada je to vidio judejski kralj Ahazja, pobježe prema Bet Haganu, ali ga je Jehu gonio i naredio: “Ubijte i njega!” Ranili su ga u kolima na brdu Guru, koje se nalazi kod Jibleama. Ali je umakao u Megido i ondje umrije.
When Ahaziah king of Judah saw [that], he fled by the way of the garden-house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in his chariot. It was on the ascent of Gur, which is by Jibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.
28 Njegove su ga sluge u kolima prenijele u Jeruzalem i sahranile ga u grobnici kraj njegovih otaca, u Davidovu gradu.
And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.
29 Jedanaeste godine kraljevanja Jorama, sina Ahabova, Ahazja postade kralj nad Judejom.
(And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab had Ahaziah begun to reign over Judah.)
30 A Jehu bijaše ušao u Jizreel. Kad je to čula Izebela, namaza oči, uresi glavu i pogleda s prozora.
And Jehu came to Jizreel; and Jezebel heard of it, and she put paint to her eyes, and decked her head, and looked out at the window.
31 I kad je Jehu ulazio na vrata, ona reče: “Kako je, Zimri, ubojico svoga gospodara?”
And when Jehu came in at the gate, she said, Is it peace, Zimri, murderer of his master?
32 Jehu okrenu lice prema prozoru i reče: “Tko je sa mnom, tko?” I dva-tri dvoranina pogledaše prema njemu.
And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And two or three chamberlains looked out to him.
33 On reče: “Bacite je dolje.” I oni je baciše. Njena je krv poprskala zidove i konje, koji je pogaziše.
And he said, Throw her down! And they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses; and he trampled on her.
34 Ušao je on, jeo i pio, a zatim naredio: “Pogledajte onu prokletnicu i sahranite je, jer je bila kraljevska kći.”
And he came in, and ate and drank; and he said, Go, look, I pray you, after this cursed [woman], and bury her; for she is a king's daughter.
35 I odoše da je sahrane, ali ne nađoše ništa od nje, osim lubanje, nogu i ruku.
And they went to bury her; but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of the hands.
36 Vratiše se i javiše, a Jehu reče: “To je riječ koju je Jahve objavio preko svoga sluge Ilije Tišbijca: 'U polju jizreelskom psi će proždrijeti Izebelino tijelo.
And they came back and told him. And he said, This is the word of Jehovah, which he spoke through his servant Elijah the Tishbite saying, In the plot of Jizreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel;
37 Izebelino truplo bit će kao gnoj u polju, da se neće moći kazati: Ovo je Izebela.'”
and the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the open field in the plot of Jizreel, so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.
