2 Královská 2
1 Stalo se potom, když měl již vzíti Hospodin Eliáše u vichru do nebe, že vyšel Eliáš s Elizeem z Galgala.
And it came to pass, when Jehovah would take up Elijah by a whirlwind into heaven, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
2 I řekl Eliáš Elizeovi: Medle, poseď tuto, nebo Hospodin poslal mne až do Bethel. Jemuž řekl Elizeus: Živť jest Hospodin, a živať jest duše tvá, žeť se tebe nespustím. I přišli do Bethel.
And Elijah said to Elisha, Remain here, I pray thee, for Jehovah has sent me as far as Bethel. And Elisha said, As Jehovah lives, and as thy soul lives, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
3 Tedy vyšli synové proročtí, kteříž byli v Bethel, k Elizeovi a řekli jemu: Víš-liž, že dnes Hospodin vezme pána tvého od tebe? Kterýž odpověděl: A já vím, mlčte.
And the sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Do thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from thy head today? And he said, Yes, I know it; hold ye your peace.
4 Opět řekl jemu Eliáš: Elizee, medle poseď tuto, nebo Hospodin poslal mne do Jericha. Kterýž odpověděl: Živť jest Hospodin, a živať jest duše tvá, žeť se tebe nespustím. I přišli do Jericha.
And Elijah said to him, Elisha, remain here, I pray thee, for Jehovah has sent me to Jericho. And he said, As Jehovah lives, and as thy soul lives, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
5 Přistoupivše pak synové proročtí, kteříž byli v Jerichu, k Elizeovi, řekli jemu: Víš-liž, že dnes vezme Hospodin pána tvého od tebe? I řekl: A já vím, mlčte.
And the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, Do thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from thy head today? And he answered, Yes, I know it; hold ye your peace.
6 Řekl mu ještě Eliáš: Poseď medle tuto, nebo Hospodin poslal mne k Jordánu. Kterýž odpověděl: Živť jest Hospodin, a živať jest duše tvá, žeť se tebe nespustím. Šli tedy oba.
And Elijah said to him, Remain here, I pray thee, for Jehovah has sent me to the Jordan. And he said, As Jehovah lives, and as thy soul lives, I will not leave thee. And the two went on.
7 Padesáte pak mužů z synů prorockých šli, a postavili se naproti zdaleka, ale oni oba zastavili se u Jordánu.
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood opposite them afar off. And the two stood by the Jordan.
8 A vzav Eliáš plášť svůj, svinul jej a udeřil na vodu. I rozdělila se sem i tam, tak že přešli oba po suše.
And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and struck the waters, and they were divided here and there, so that the two went over on dry ground.
9 V tom když přešli, řekl Eliáš Elizeovi: Žádej sobě, co chceš, prvé než vzat budu od tebe. I řekl Elizeus: Nechť jest, prosím, dvojnásobní díl ducha tvého na mně.
And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee before I am taken from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
10 Jemuž řekl: Nesnadnés věci požádal, a však jestliže uzříš mne, když budu vzat od tebe, staneť se tak; pakli nic, nestane se.
And he said, Thou have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so to thee, but if not, it shall not be so.
11 Takž stalo se, že když předce jdouce, rozmlouvali, aj, vůz ohnivý a koni ohniví rozdělili je na různo. I vstoupil Eliáš u vichru do nebe.
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, which divided them both apart. And Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 To vida Elizeus, volal: Otče můj, otče můj! Vozové Izraelští i jezdci jeho! A neviděl ho více. Potom uchopiv roucho své, roztrhl je na dva kusy.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen of it! And he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own clothes, and tore them in two pieces.
13 A zdvih plášť Eliášův, kterýž byl spadl s něho, navrátil se a stál na břehu Jordánském.
He also took up the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
14 Tedy vzav plášť Eliášův, kterýž byl spadl s něho, udeřil na vodu a řekl: Kdež jest Hospodin Bůh Eliášův i on sám? A udeřil, pravím, na vodu, kteráž rozstoupila se sem i tam. I přešel Elizeus.
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and struck the waters, and said, Where is Jehovah, the God of Elijah? And when he also had smitten the waters, they were divided here and there, and Elisha went over.
15 Což vidouce synové proročtí z Jericha, naproti stojíce, řekli: Odpočinul duch Eliášův na Elizeovi. I šli proti němu a poklonili se mu až k zemi.
And when the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho opposite him saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
16 A řekli jemu: Aj, nyní jest s služebníky tvými padesáte mužů silných, medle nechť jdou a hledají pána tvého. Snad ho zanesl duch Hospodinův, a povrhl jej na některé hoře aneb v některém údolí. Kterýž řekl: Neposílejte.
And they said to him, Behold now, there are fifty strong men with thy servants. Let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master, lest the Spirit of Jehovah has taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.
17 Ale když na něj vždy dotírali, tak že mu to obtížné bylo, řekl: Pošlete. I poslali padesáte mužů, a hledajíce za tři dni, nenalezli ho.
And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. Therefore they sent fifty men. And they sought three days, but did not find him.
18 A když se k němu navrátili, (on pak bydlil v Jerichu), řekl jim: Zdaliž jsem vám neřekl: Nechoďte?
And they came back to him while he remained at Jericho. And he said to them, Did I not say to you, Do not go?
19 Muži pak města toho řekli Elizeovi: Hle, nyní byt v městě tomto jest výborný, jakož, pane můj, vidíš, ale vody jsou zlé a země neúrodná.
And the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold, we pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees, but the water is bad, and the ground barren.
20 Tedy řekl: Přineste mi nádobu novou, a dejte do ní soli. I přinesli mu.
And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.
21 A vyšed k pramenu těch vod, vsypal tam sůl a řekl: Takto praví Hospodin: Uzdravuji vody tyto; nebudeť více odtud smrti, ani nedochůdčete.
And he went forth to the spring of the waters, and cast salt therein, and said, Thus says Jehovah, I have healed these waters. There shall not be from there any more death or barren land.
22 A tak uzdraveny jsou ty vody až do dnešního dne, vedlé řeči Elizeovy, kterouž byl mluvil.
So the waters were healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke.
23 Potom šel odtud do Bethel. A když šel cestou, pacholata malá vyšedše z města, posmívali se jemu, říkajíce: Jdi lysý, jdi lysý!
And he went up from there to Bethel. And as he was going up by the way, there came forth young lads out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, thou baldhead; go up, thou baldhead.
24 Kterýž ohlédna se, uzřel je a zlořečil jim ve jménu Hospodinovu. Protož vyskočivše dvě nedvědice z lesa, roztrhaly z nich čtyřidcatero a dvé dětí.
And he looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of Jehovah. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty-two lads of them.
25 I šel odtud na horu Karmel, odkudž navrátil se do Samaří.
And he went from there to mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
