2 Královská 8
1 Mluvil pak Elizeus k ženě té, jejíhož byl syna vzkřísil, řka: Vstaň a jdi, ty i čeled tvá, a buď pohostinu, kdežkoli budeš moci byt míti; nebo zavolal Hospodin hladu, a přijdeť na zemi za sedm let.
After Elisha caused the son of the woman from Shunem [town] to become alive again, he told her that she should leave with her family and live somewhere else for a while, because Yahweh was going to (send a famine/cause food to become very scarce) in the land. He said that the famine would last for seven years.
2 Vstavši tedy žena, učinila vedlé řeči muže Božího, a odešla s čeledí svou, a bydlila pohostinu v zemi Filistinských sedm let.
So the woman did what Elisha told her to do. She and her family went to live in [the] Philistia [region] for seven years.
3 I stalo se, že když pominulo těch sedm let, navrátila se ta žena z země Filistinské, a šla, aby prosila krále za dům svůj a za pole své.
After the seven years were ended, they returned to their home. The woman went to the king to request that her house and her land be given back to her.
4 Mezi tím král mluvil s Gézi, služebníkem muže Božího, řka: Vypravuj mi medle o všech věcech velikých, kteréž činil Elizeus.
When she arrived, the king was talking with Gehazi, Elisha’s servant. The king was saying to him, “Tell me all the great things that Elisha has done.”
5 A když on vypravoval králi, kterak obživil mrtvého, aj žena, jejíhož syna vzkřísil, prosila krále za dům svůj a za pole své. I řekl Gézi: Pane můj králi, to jest ta žena, a tento syn její, kteréhož vzkřísil Elizeus.
While Gehazi was telling the king that Elisha had caused the son of a woman [from Shunem] to become alive again, that woman came in and requested the king to enable her to get her house and land back again. Gehazi exclaimed, “Your Majesty, this is the woman whose son Elisha caused to become alive again!”
6 Tedy tázal se král ženy, kteráž vypravovala jemu. I poručil král komorníku jednomu, řka: Ať jsou navráceny všecky věci, kteréž byly její, i všecky užitky pole, ode dne, v němž opustila zemi, až po dnes.
When the king asked her about it, she told him [that what Gehazi had said was true]. The king summoned one of his officials and said to him, “[I want] everything that this woman possessed previously, including the value of all the crops that have been harvested during these last seven years while she was away from her land, [to] be given back to her.” [So the official did that].
7 Potom přišel Elizeus do Damašku, král pak Syrský Benadad stonal. I oznámeno jemu těmito slovy: Přišel muž Boží sem.
Elisha went to Damascus, [the capital of Syria], when Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, was [very] sick. When someone told the king that Elisha was in Damascus,
8 I řekl král Hazaelovi: Vezmi v ruce své dar, a jdi vstříc muži Božímu, a zeptej se Hospodina skrze něho, řka: Povstanu-li z nemoci této?
the king told [one of his officials named] Hazael, “Go and talk to that prophet and take a present/gift with you to give to him. Request him to ask Yahweh if I will recover from my illness.”
9 A tak šel Hazael vstříc jemu, vzav s sebou dar, a všeliké věci výborné Damašské, břemena na čtyřidcíti velbloudích, a přišed, stál před ním a řekl: Syn tvůj Benadad, král Syrský, poslal mne k tobě, řka: Povstanu-li z nemoci této?
So Hazael went to talk with Elisha. He took with him forty camels that were carrying many kinds of goods that were produced in Damascus. When Hazael met him, he said to him, “Your friend Ben-Hadad, the king of Syria, sent me to ask you whether [you think] he will recover from his illness.”
10 Odpověděl mu Elizeus: Jdi, pověz jemu: Zajisté mohl bys živ zůstati. Ale Hospodin mi ukázal, že jistotně umře.
Elisha said to Hazael, “Go and say to him, ‘Yes, you will certainly not die from this illness,’ but Yahweh has shown me that he will certainly die [before he recovers].”
11 V tom proměniv muž Boží tvář svou, ukázal se k němu neochotně a plakal.
Then Elisha stared at him and had a terrified look on his face. That caused Hazael to feel uneasy/embarrassed. Then [suddenly] Elisha started to cry.
12 Jemuž řekl Hazael: Proč pán můj pláče? Odpověděl: Proto že vím, co zlého ty učiníš synům Izraelským. Pevnosti jejich spálíš a mládence jejich zmorduješ mečem, a nemluvňátka jejich rozrážeti budeš, a těhotné jejich zroztínáš.
Hazael said, “Sir, why are you crying?” Elisha replied, “Because [Yahweh has enabled] me [to] know the terrible things that you will do to the people of Israel: You will burn their cities with walls around them, you will kill their fine young men with a sword, you will bash the heads of their children, and you will rip open the bellies of their pregnant women [with a sword].”
13 I řekl Hazael: I což jest služebník tvůj pes, aby učiniti mohl věc tak velikou? Odpověděl Elizeus: Ukázal tě mi Hospodin, že budeš králem Syrským.
Hazael replied, “I am [as insignificant as] [MET] a dog; (how could I do such things?/I would never do such terrible things!)” [RHQ] Elisha replied, “Yahweh has also revealed to me that you will become the king of Syria.”
14 A odšed od Elizea, přišel ku pánu svému. Kterýž řekl jemu: Cožť řekl Elizeus? Odpověděl: Pravil mi, že bys mohl živ zůstati.
Then Hazael left and returned to his master/boss [the king], who asked him, “What did Elisha say?” He replied, “He told me that you would certainly recover.”
15 I stalo se nazejtří, že vzal koberec, a namočiv jej v vodě, prostřel jej na tvář jeho. I umřel, a kraloval Hazael místo něho.
But the next day, [while the king was sleeping, ] Hazael took a blanket and soaked it in water. Then he spread it on the king’s face [in order that he could not breathe], and he died. Then Hazael became the king of Syria instead of Ben-Hadad.
16 Léta pak pátého Jorama, syna Achabova krále Izraelského, a Jozafata krále Judského, počal kralovati Jehoram, syn Jozafatův král Judský.
After King Joram, the son of Ahab, had been ruling in Israel for almost five years, Jehoshaphat’s son Jehoram became the king of Judah.
17 Ve dvou a třidcíti letech byl, když počal kralovati, a kraloval osm let v Jeruzalémě.
He was thirty-two years old when he became the king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eight years.
18 A chodil po cestě králů Izraelských, tak jako činil dům Achabův; nebo měl dceru Achabovu za manželku. Takž činil zlé věci před očima Hospodinovýma.
His wife was the daughter of King Ahab. And like everyone in Ahab’s family, he continually did the evil things that the previous kings of Israel had done. He did things that Yahweh considered to be evil.
19 Hospodin však nechtěl zahladiti Judy pro Davida služebníka svého, jakž mu byl zaslíbil, že dá jemu svíci i synům jeho po všecky dny.
But Yahweh did not want to get rid of the people of Judah, because of what he had promised David, who served him [very well]. He had promised David that his descendants [MET] would always rule Judah.
20 Ve dnech jeho odstoupil Edom od království Judského, a ustanovili nad sebou krále.
During the time that Jehoram ruled, [the king of] Edom rebelled against Judah, and they appointed their own king.
21 Tou příčinou táhl Jehoram do Seir, i všickni vozové s ním. A vstav v noci, porazil Idumejské, kteříž jej byli obklíčili, i hejtmany vozů, a lid utekl do stanů svých.
So Jehoram went with his army and all their chariots to Zair [city near the border of Edom]. There the army of Edom surrounded them. But during the night, Jehoram and the commanders in their chariots were able to get through the enemy lines and escaped. And all his soldiers also fled to their homes.
22 Však předce odstoupil Edom od království Judského až do tohoto dne. Takž odstoupilo i Lebno téhož času.
So after that, Edom was no longer controlled by Judah, and it is still like that. During that same time, the people of Libnah [city] also freed themselves from being controlled by Judah.
23 O jiných pak věcech Jehoramových, a o všem, cožkoli činil, psáno jest v knize o králích Judských.
[If you want to read about] the other things that Jehoram did, they are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
24 I usnul Jehoram s otci svými, a pochován jest s otci svými v městě Davidově, kraloval pak Ochoziáš syn jeho místo něho.
Jehoram died [EUP] and was buried where the other kings of Judah had been buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then Jehoram’s son Ahaziah became the king.
25 Léta dvanáctého Jorama syna Achabova, krále Izraelského, počal kralovati Ochoziáš syn Jehorama, krále Judského.
After Ahab’s son Joram has been ruling in Israel for almost twelve years, Jehoram’s son Ahaziah became the king of Judah.
26 Ve dvamecítma letech byl Ochoziáš, když počal kralovati, a kraloval jeden rok v Jeruzalémě. Jméno matky jeho bylo Atalia, dcera Amri krále Izraelského.
Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he started to rule. He ruled in Jerusalem for [only] one year. His mother’s name was Athaliah, [the daughter of King Ahab and] the granddaughter of King Omri of Israel.
27 A chodil cestou domu Achabova, čině, což jest zlého před očima Hospodinovýma, jako i dům Achabův, nebo byl zetěm domu Achabova.
King Ahab conducted his life just like the members of Ahab’s family had done. He did things that Yahweh considered to be very evil.
28 Pročež vycházel s Joramem synem Achabovým, na vojnu proti Hazaelovi králi Syrskému, do Rámot Galád; ale porazili Syrští Jorama.
Ahaziah’s army joined the army of King Joram of Israel to fight against the army of King Hazael of Syria. Their armies started fighting at Ramoth [city] in [the] Gilead [region], and the soldiers of Syria wounded Joram.
29 A tak navrátil se král Joram, aby se hojil v Jezreel na rány, kterýmiž ho ranili Syrští v Ráma, když bojoval s Hazaelem králem Syrským. Ochoziáš pak syn Jehorama, krále Judského, přijel, aby navštívil Jorama syna Achabova v Jezreel; nebo tam nemocen byl.
King Joram returned to Jezreel [city] to recover from his wounds. King Ahaziah went to visit him there.
