2 Kraljevima 1
1 Poslije smrti Ahabove pobuni se Moab protiv Izraela.
And Moab transgresses against Israel after the death of Ahab,
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 Ahaziah falls through the lattice in his upper chamber that [is] in Samaria, and is sick, and sends messengers, and says to them, “Go, inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron if I recover from this sickness.”
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 a messenger of YHWH has spoken to Elijah the Tishbite, “Rise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and speak to them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are going to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron?
4 I zato veli Jahve ovako: 'Nećeš sići s postelje u koju si se popeo; sigurno ćeš umrijeti.'” I ode Ilija.
And therefore, thus said YHWH: The bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly die”; and Elijah goes on.
5 Glasnici se vratiše k Ahazji, a on im reče: “Kako to da ste se već vratili?”
And the messengers return to him, and he says to them, “What [is] this—you have turned 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.'”
And they say to him, “A man has come up to meet us and says to us, Go, return to the king who sent you, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH: Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are sending to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly die.”
7 On ih upita: “Kakav bijaše na oči taj čovjek koji vas je sreo i rekao vam te riječi?”
And he says to them, “What [is] the fashion of the man who has come up to meet you, and speaks these words to you?”
8 A oni mu odgovoriše: “Bio je to čovjek u kožuhu i s kožnim pojasom oko bedara.” On reče: “To je Ilija Tišbijac!”
And they say to him, “A hairy man, and a girdle of skin girt around his loins”; and he says, “He [is] Elijah the Tishbite.”
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 sends to him a head of fifty and his fifty, and he goes up to him (and behold, he is sitting on the top of the hill), and he speaks to him, “O man of God, the king has spoken, 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 Elijah answers and speaks to the head of the fifty, “And if I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire comes down from the heavens and consumes him and his fifty.
11 Kralj mu posla drugoga pedesetnika i njegovu pedesetoricu; a taj, kad dođe, reče mu: “Čovječe Božji! Kralj je ovo zapovjedio: Brže siđi!”
And he turns and sends to him another head of fifty and his fifty, and he answers and speaks to him, “O man of God, thus said the king: Hurry, 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.
And Elijah answers and speaks to them, “If I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire of God comes down from the heavens and consumes 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!
And he turns and sends a third head of fifty and his fifty, and the third head of fifty goes up, and comes in, and bows on his knees before Elijah, and makes supplication to him, and speaks to him, “O man of God, please let my soul and the soul of your servants—these fifty—be precious in your eyes.
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 has come down from the heavens and consumes the two heads of the former fifties and their fifties; and now, let my soul be precious in your eyes.”
15 Anđeo Jahvin reče Iliji: “Siđi s njim, ne boj se!” On ustade i siđe s njim pred kralja
And a messenger of YHWH speaks to Elijah, “Go down with him, do not be afraid of him”; and he rises and goes 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 speaks to him, “Thus said YHWH: Because that you have sent messengers to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron—is it because there is not a God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up—you do not come down from it, for you certainly 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.
And he dies, according to the word of YHWH that Elijah spoke, and Jehoram reigns in his stead, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, for he had no son.
18 Ostala povijest Ahazje, sve što je učinio, zar to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
And the rest of the matters of Ahaziah that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
