2 Královská 4

1 Tedy žena jedna z manželek synů prorockých volala k Elizeovi, řkuci: Služebník tvůj, muž můj, umřel, ty pak víš, že služebník tvůj bál se Hospodina. A teď věřitel přišel, aby vzal dva syny mé sobě za služebníky.

Now a certain woman, from the wives of the prophets, cried out to Elisha, saying: “My husband, your servant, is dead. And you know that your servant was one who fears the Lord. And behold, a creditor has arrived, so that he may take away my two sons to serve him.”

2 Řekl jí Elizeus: Což chceš, ať učiním? Oznam mi, co máš v domě? Ona řekla: Nemáť služebnice tvá nic v domě, jediné báni oleje.

And Elisha said to her: “What do you want me to do for you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” And she responded, “I, your handmaid, do not have anything in my house, except a little oil, with which I may be anointed.”

3 I řekl: Jdi, vyžádej sobě nádob vně ode všech sousedů svých, nádob prázdných tím více.

And he said to her: “Go, ask to borrow from all your neighbors empty vessels, more than a few.

4 A vejda, zavři za sebou dvéře i za syny svými, a nalévej do všech těch nádob, a kteráž bude plná, rozkážeš ji odstaviti.

And enter and close your door. And when you are inside with your sons, pour from the oil into all those vessels. And when they are full, take them away.”

5 A tak odešla od něho a zavřela dvéře za sebou a za syny svými. Oni podávali jí, a ona nalévala.

And so, the woman went and closed the door upon herself and her sons. They were bringing her the vessels, and she was pouring into them.

6 I stalo se, že když naplnila ty nádoby, řekla synu svému: Podej mi ještě nádoby. Kterýž odpověděl: Již není více nádob. I přestal olej.

And when the vessels had been filled, she said to her son, “Bring me another a vessel.” And he responded, “I have none.” And there was oil remaining.

7 Tedy ona přišedši, oznámila to muži Božímu. On pak řekl: Jdi, prodej ten olej, a spokoj věřitele svého, ty pak s syny svými budeš se živiti z ostatku.

Then she went and told the man of God. And he said: “Go, sell the oil, and repay your creditor. Then you and your sons may live on what remains.”

8 Potom stalo se některého času, že šel Elizeus skrze Sunem, kdež byla jedna žena vzácná, kteráž ho pozdržela, aby jedl u ní. A od toho času chodívaje tudy, stavoval se tam, a jídal chléb.

Now it happened that, on a certain day, Elisha passed by Shunem. And there was a great woman there, who took him to eat bread. And since he frequently passed by there, he turned aside to her house, so that he might eat bread.

9 Nebo řekla byla muži svému: Aj, nyní vím, že ten muž Boží svatý jest, kterýž často tudyto chodívá.

And she said to her husband: “I have noticed that he is a holy man of God, who passes by us frequently.

10 Medle, udělejme pokojík malý, a postavme tam jemu ložce, stůl, stolici a svícen, aby, když by koli k nám přišel, obrátil se tam.

Therefore, let us prepare a small upper room for him, and place a bed in it for him, and a table, and a chair, and a lampstand, so that when he comes to us, he may stay there.”

11 Některého tedy času přišel tam, a všed do toho pokojíku, odpočinul tu.

Then it happened that, on a certain day, arriving, he turned aside into the upper room, and he rested there.

12 I řekl Gézi služebníku svému: Zavolej té Sunamitské. Kterýž zavolal jí. I postavila se před ním.

And he said to his servant Gehazi, “Call this Shunammite woman.” And when he had called her, and she stood before him,

13 Přitom řekl jemu: Rci jí nyní: Hle, pečuješ a staráš se o nás všelijak. Co chceš, ať učiním? Máš-li jakou potřebu před králem aneb před hejtmanem vojska? Kteráž řekla: U prostřed lidu svého bydlím.

he said to his servant: “Say to her: Behold, you have ministered to us attentively in all things. What do you want, that I might do for you? Do you have any business, or do you want me to speak to the king, or to the leader of the military?” And she responded, “I live in the midst of my own people.”

14 Řekl on: Což tedy mám pro ni učiniti? Odpověděl Gézi: Hle, syna nemá, a muž její starý jest.

And he said, “Then what does she want, that I might do for her?” And Gehazi said: “You need not ask. For she has no son, and her husband is elderly.”

15 Protož řekl: Zavolej jí. Takž jí zavolal, a ona stála u dveří.

And so, he instructed him to call her. And when she had been called, and was standing before the door,

16 I řekl: V času jistém vedlé času života chovati budeš syna. Řekla ona: Nechtěj, pane můj, muži Boží, nechtěj se posmívati služebnici své.

he said to her, “At this time, and at this same hour, with life as a companion, you will have a son in your womb.” But she responded, “Do not, I ask you, my lord, a man of God, do not be willing to lie to your handmaid.”

17 Zatím počala žena a porodila syna v času jistém vedlé času života, kterýž předpověděl jí Elizeus.

And the woman conceived. And she bore a son, in the time and at the same hour as Elisha had said.

18 I rostlo dítě. Stalo se pak některého času, že vyšedši k otci svému k žencům,

And the boy grew. And on a certain day, when he had gone out to his father, to the harvesters,

19 Řeklo otci svému: Hlava má, hlava má! I řekl služebníku: Dones jej k matce jeho.

he said to his father: “I have a pain in my head. I have a pain in my head.” But he said to his servant, “Take him, and lead him to his mother.”

20 Kterýž když ho vzal a přinesl k matce jeho, seděl na klíně jejím až do poledne a umřel.

But when he had taken him, and he had led him to his mother, she placed him upon her knees, until midday, and then he died.

21 Tedy ona vstoupivši, položila jej na ložce muže Božího, a zavřevši ho, vyšla.

Then she went up and laid him out on the bed of the man of God, and she closed the door. And departing,

22 Potom zavolala muže svého a řekla: Medle, pošli mi jednoho z služebníků a jednu oslici, ať doběhnu až k muži Božímu, a zase se navrátím.

she called her husband, and she said: “Send with me, I beg you, one of your servants, and a donkey, so that I may hurry to the man of God, and then return.”

23 Kterýž řekl: Proč chceš jíti k němu? Dnes není novměsíce, ani sobota. Odpověděla ona: Měj o to pokoj.

And he said to her: “What is the reason that you would go to him? Today is not the new moon, and it is not the Sabbath.” She responded, “I will go.”

24 Osedlavši tedy oslici, řekla služebníku svému: Pobádej a běž, a nemeškej se pro mne v jízdě, leč bych rozkázala tobě.

And she saddled a donkey, and she instructed her servant: “Drive, and hurry on. You shall cause no delay for me in departing. And do whatever I instruct you to do.”

25 A tak jela, až přijela k muži Božímu na horu Karmel. A když ji uzřel muž Boží zdaleka, řekl Gézi služebníku svému: Hle, Sunamitská tamto.

And so she set out. And she came to the man of God, on mount Carmel. And when the man of God had seen her at a distance, he said to his servant Gehazi: “Behold, it is that Shunammite woman.

26 Protož nyní běž jí v cestu a rci jí: Dobře-li se máš? Dobře-li se má muž tvůj? Dobře-li se má syn? Ona řekla: Dobře.

So then, go to meet her, and say to her, ‘Does all go well concerning you, and your husband, and your son?’” And she answered, “It is well.”

27 V tom přišla k muži Božímu na horu, a chopila se noh jeho. I přistoupil Gézi, aby ji odehnal. Ale muž Boží řekl: Nechej jí; nebo v hořkosti jest duše její, a Hospodin zatajil to přede mnou, aniž mi oznámil.

And when she had arrived at the man of God, on the mount, she took hold of his feet. And Gehazi drew near, so that he might remove her. But the man of God said: “Permit her. For her soul is in bitterness. And the Lord has concealed it from me, and has not revealed it to me.”

28 Ona pak řekla: Zdaliž jsem žádala syna od pána mého? Zdaliž jsem neřekla, abys mne nešálil?

And she said to him: “Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say to you, ‘You should not deceive me?’”

29 Tedy řekl k Gézi: Přepaš bedra svá, a vezmi hůl mou v ruku svou a jdi. Jestliže potkáš koho, nepozdravuj ho, a jestliže tě kdo pozdraví, neodpovídej jemu, a přijda, polož hůl mou na tvář dítěte.

And so he said to Gehazi: “Gird your waist, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If any man will meet you, you shall not greet him. And if anyone greets you, you shall not respond to him. And place my staff upon the face of the boy.”

30 I řekla matka dítěte: Živť jest Hospodin a živať jest duše tvá, žeť se tebe nespustím. Protož vstav, bral se za ní.

But the mother of the boy said, “As the Lord lives, and as your soul lives, I will not release you.” Therefore, he rose up, and he followed her.

31 Gézi pak byl předšel je, a položil hůl na tvář dítěte, ale nebylo hlasu, ani čitelnosti. Pročež vracuje se jemu vstříc, pověděl mu, řka: Neprobudilo se dítě.

But Gehazi had gone before them, and he had placed the staff upon the face of the boy. And there was no voice, nor any response. And so he returned to meet him. And he reported to him, saying, “The boy did not rise up.”

32 Všel tedy Elizeus do domu, a aj, dítě mrtvé leželo na ložci jeho.

Therefore, Elisha entered the house. And behold, the boy was lying dead upon his bed.

33 A když všel tam, zavřel dvéře před oběma, a modlil se Hospodinu.

And entering, he closed the door upon himself and the boy. And he prayed to the Lord.

34 Zatím vstoupiv na lože, zpolehl na dítě, vloživ ústa svá na ústa jeho, a oči své na oči jeho, a ruce své na ruce jeho, a rozprostřel se nad ním. I zahřelo se tělo dítěte.

And he climbed up, and lay across the boy. And he put his mouth over his mouth, and his eyes over his eyes, and his hands over his hands. And he leaned himself over him, and the body of the boy grew warm.

35 A odvrátiv se, procházel se po domě jednak sem jednak tam; potom vstoupiv, rozprostřel se opět nad ním. I kýchalo dítě až do sedmikrát, a otevřelo to dítě oči své.

And returning, he walked around the house, first here and then there. And he went up, and lay across him. And the boy gasped seven times, and he opened his eyes.

36 Tedy zavolav Gézi, řekl: Zavolej Sunamitské. I zavolal jí. A když přišla k němu, řekl jí: Vezmiž syna svého.

And he called Gehazi, and said to him, “Call this Shunammite woman.” And having been called, she entered to him. And he said, “Take up your son.”

37 Kteráž jakž vešla, padla k nohám jeho a poklonila se k zemi. I vzala syna svého a vyšla.

She went and fell at his feet, and she reverenced upon the ground. And she took up her son, and departed.

38 Potom Elizeus navrátil se do Galgala. Byl pak hlad v té zemi, a synové proročtí seděli před ním. I řekl mládenci svému: Přistav hrnec veliký, a navař kaše synům prorockým.

And Elisha returned to Gilgal. Now there was a famine in the land, and the sons of the prophets were living in his sight. And he said to one of his servants, “Set out a large cooking pot, and boil a soup for the sons of the prophets.”

39 Protož vyšel jeden na pole, aby nasbíral zelin, a nalezl rév polní, a nasbíral z něho tykví polních plnou sukni svou, a přišed, skrájel to do hrnce, aby navařil kaše; nebo neznali toho.

And one went out into the field, so that he might collect wild herbs. And he found something like a wild vine, and he gathered from it bitter fruits of the field, and he filled his cloak. And returning, he cut these up for the pot of soup. But he did not know what it was.

40 I vylili mužům těm, aby jedli. Stalo se pak, když jedli tu kaši, že zkřikli a řekli: Smrt v hrnci, muži Boží! A nemohli jísti.

Then they poured it out for their companions to eat. And when they had tasted the mixture, they cried out, saying, “Death is in the cooking pot, O man of God!” And they were unable to eat.

41 Kterýžto řekl: Vezměte mouky. Kteréž nasypav do hrnce, rozkázal vyliti lidu. I jedli, aniž co zlého bylo v hrnci.

But he said, “Bring some flour.” And when they had brought it, he cast it into the cooking pot, and he said, “Pour it out for the group, so that they may eat.” And there was no longer any bitterness in the cooking pot.

42 V tom muž přišel z Balsalisa, kterýž přinesl muži Božímu chleby z prvotin, totiž dvadceti chlebů ječných, a klasů nových nevymnutých. I řekl: Dej lidu, ať jedí.

Now a certain man arrived from Baal-Shalishah, carrying, for the man of God, bread from the first-fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and new grain in his satchel. But he said, “Give it to the people, so that they may eat.”

43 Odpověděl služebník jeho: Což to mám předložiti sto mužům? Opět řekl: Dej lidu, ať pojedí. Nebo tak praví Hospodin: Jísti budou, a ještě zůstane.

And his servant responded to him, “What amount is this, that I should set it before a hundred men?” But he said again: “Give it to the people, so that they may eat. For thus says the Lord, ‘They shall eat, and there shall be still more.’”

44 A tak předložil jim, i jedli, a zůstalo ještě vedlé řeči Hospodinovy.

And so, he set it before them. And they ate, and there was still more, in accord with the word of the Lord.
