< 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.
Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, "Put your belt on your waist, take this vial of oil in your 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.
When you come there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brothers, and carry him to an inner room.
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 says Jehovah, "I have anointed you king over Israel."' Then open the door, flee, and do not wait."
4 Tada mladi prorok ode u Ramot Gilead.
So 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!”
When he came, look, the captains of the army were sitting. Then he said, "I have a message for you, captain." Jehu said, "To which of us all?" He said, "To you, O 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.
He arose, and went into the house. Then he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, 'I have anointed you king over the people of Jehovah, even 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
You shall strike the house of Ahab your master, that I may 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.
For the whole house of Ahab shall perish. I will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, both him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.
9 Učinit ću s domom Ahabovim kao s domom Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, i kao s domom Baše, sina Ahijina.
I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like 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.
The dogs will eat Jezebel on the plot of ground of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her.'" 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.”
Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said to him, "Is all well? Why did this mad fellow come to you?" He said to them, "You know the man and what his talk was."
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.'”
They said, "That is a lie. Tell us now." He said, "He said to me, 'Thus says Jehovah, I have anointed you 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 hurried, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew the trumpet, saying, "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.
So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram was keeping Ramoth Gilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Aram;
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.”
but king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Arameans had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Aram.) Jehu said, "If this is your thinking, then let no one escape and go out of the city, to go to tell it in Jezreel."
16 Jehu se tada pope na kola i ode prema Jizreelu, jer je Joram ondje bolovao, i Ahazja, kralj judejski, došao ga posjetiti.
So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. 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.”
Now the watchman was standing on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, "I see a company." 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 said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace?'" Jehu said, "What do you have to do with peace? Fall in behind me." The watchman said, "The messenger came to them, but he isn't coming back."
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.”
Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them, and said, "Thus says the king, 'Is it peace?'" Jehu answered, "What do you have to do with peace? Fall in 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!”
The watchman said, "He came to them, and isn't coming back. 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.
Joram said, "Get ready." They got his chariot ready. Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out to meet Jehu, and found him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.
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!”
It happened, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, "Is it peace, Jehu?" He answered, "What peace, so long as the prostitution of your mother Jezebel and her witchcraft abound?"
23 Joram okrenu i udari u bijeg govoreći Ahazji: “Izdaja, Ahazja!”
Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, "There is treason, Ahaziah."
24 Jehu se lati luka, ustrijeli Jorama među pleća: strijela mu prođe posred srca te se on sruši u kola.
Jehu drew his bow with his full strength, and shot Joram between his arms; and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk 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:
Then Jehu said to Bidkar his captain, "Pick him up, and throw him in the plot of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite; for I remember how when you and I rode together behind Ahab his father, Jehovah pronounced this judgment on 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.”
'Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons,' says Jehovah; 'and I will repay you in this plot of ground,' says Jehovah. Now therefore take and cast him onto the plot of ground, 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.
But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. Jehu followed after him, and said, "Shoot him also." And they shot him in the chariot at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. 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.
His servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his tomb with his fathers in the City of David.
29 Jedanaeste godine kraljevanja Jorama, sina Ahabova, Ahazja postade kralj nad Judejom.
In the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah.
30 A Jehu bijaše ušao u Jizreel. Kad je to čula Izebela, namaza oči, uresi glavu i pogleda s prozora.
When Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her eyes, and attired her head, and looked out at the window.
31 I kad je Jehu ulazio na vrata, ona reče: “Kako je, Zimri, ubojico svoga gospodara?”
As Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, "Do you come in peace, Zimri, you murderer of your master?"
32 Jehu okrenu lice prema prozoru i reče: “Tko je sa mnom, tko?” I dva-tri dvoranina pogledaše prema njemu.
He lifted up his face to the window, and said, "Who is on my side? Who?" Two or three eunuchs looked out at him.
33 On reče: “Bacite je dolje.” I oni je baciše. Njena je krv poprskala zidove i konje, koji je pogaziše.
He said, "Throw her down." So they threw her down; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses. Then he trampled her under foot.
34 Ušao je on, jeo i pio, a zatim naredio: “Pogledajte onu prokletnicu i sahranite je, jer je bila kraljevska kći.”
When he had come in, he ate and drink; and he said, "See now to 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.
They went to bury her; but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her 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.
Therefore they came back, and told him. He said, "This is the word of Jehovah, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, 'The dogs will eat the flesh of Jezebel on the plot of Jezreel,
37 Izebelino truplo bit će kao gnoj u polju, da se neće moći kazati: Ovo je Izebela.'”
and the body of Jezebel shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel, so that they shall not say, "This is Jezebel."'"
