2 Kings 20
1 In those days Hezekiah became mortally ill. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz came to him and said, “This is what the LORD says: ‘Put your house in order, for you are about to die; you will not recover.’”
V tistih dneh je bil Ezekíja na smrt bolan. K njemu je prišel prerok Izaija, Amócov sin in mu rekel: »Tako govori Gospod: ›Uredi svojo hišo, kajti umrl boš, ne pa živel.‹
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD, saying,
Potem je on svoj obraz obrnil k steni in molil h Gospodu, rekoč:
3 “Please, O LORD, remember how I have walked before You faithfully and with wholehearted devotion; I have done what was good in Your sight.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
»Rotim te, oh Gospod, spomni se sedaj, kako sem pred teboj hodil v resnici, s popolnim srcem in storil sem to, kar je dobro v tvojih očeh.« In Ezekíja je bridko zajokal.
4 Before Isaiah had left the middle courtyard, the word of the LORD came to him, saying,
Pripetilo se je, še preden je Izaija odšel ven na srednji dvor, da je k njemu prišla beseda od Gospoda, rekoč:
5 “Go back and tell Hezekiah the leader of My people that this is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears. I will surely heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the house of the LORD.
»Ponovno se obrni in povej Ezekíju, poveljniku mojega ljudstva: ›Tako govori Gospod, Bog tvojega očeta Davida: ›Slišal sem tvojo molitev in videl sem tvoje solze. Glej, ozdravil te bom. Na tretji dan boš odšel gor v Gospodovo hišo.
6 I will add fifteen years to your life. And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for My sake and for the sake of My servant David.’”
Tvojim dnevom bom dodal petnajst let in tebe ter to mesto osvobodil iz roke asirskega kralja in to mesto bom branil zaradi sebe in zaradi svojega služabnika Davida.‹«
7 Then Isaiah said, “Prepare a poultice of figs.” So they brought it and applied it to the boil, and Hezekiah recovered.
Izaija je rekel: »Vzemite kepo fig.« Vzeli so jo in jo položili na gnojno bulo in si je opomogel.
8 Now Hezekiah had asked Isaiah, “What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me and that I will go up to the house of the LORD on the third day?”
Ezekíja je rekel Izaiju: »Kakšno bo znamenje, da me bo Gospod ozdravil in da bom tretji dan šel gor v Gospodovo hišo?«
9 And Isaiah had replied, “This will be a sign to you from the LORD that He will do what He has promised: Would you like the shadow to go forward ten steps, or back ten steps?”
Izaija je rekel: »To znamenje boš imel od Gospoda, da bo Gospod storil stvar, ki jo je govoril. Ali naj gre senca deset stopinj naprej ali deset stopinj nazaj?«
10 “It is easy for the shadow to lengthen ten steps,” answered Hezekiah, “but not for it to go back ten steps.”
Ezekíja je odgovoril: »Lahka stvar je za senco, da gre deset stopinj navzdol. Ne, temveč naj se senca vrne za deset stopinj nazaj.«
11 So Isaiah the prophet called out to the LORD, and He brought the shadow back the ten steps it had descended on the stairway of Ahaz.
Prerok Izaija je klical h Gospodu in ta je senco privedel deset stopinj nazaj, po kateri se je spustila na Aházovi sončni uri.
12 At that time Merodach-baladan son of Baladan king of Babylon sent letters and a gift to Hezekiah, for he had heard about Hezekiah’s illness.
Ob tistem času je Baladánov sin Berodáh Baladán, kralj Babilona, poslal Ezekíju pisma in darilo, kajti slišal je, da je bil Ezekíja bolan.
13 And Hezekiah received the envoys and showed them all that was in his treasure house—the silver, the gold, the spices, and the precious oil, as well as his armory—all that was found in his storehouses. There was nothing in his palace or in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them.
Ezekíja jim je prisluhnil in jim razkazal vso hišo svojih dragocenih stvari: srebro, zlato, dišave, dragoceno mazilo, vso hišo svoje bojne opreme in vse, kar se je našlo v njegovih zakladnicah. Nič ni bilo v njegovi hiši niti v vsem njegovem gospostvu, kar jim Ezekíja ni razkazal.
14 Then the prophet Isaiah went to King Hezekiah and asked, “Where did those men come from, and what did they say to you?” “They came from a distant land,” Hezekiah replied, “from Babylon.”
Tedaj je prišel prerok Izaija h kralju Ezekíju in mu rekel: »Kaj so rekli ti možje? In od kod so prišli k tebi?« Ezekíja je rekel: »Prišli so iz daljne dežele, celó iz Babilona.«
15 “What have they seen in your palace?” Isaiah asked. “They have seen everything in my palace,” answered Hezekiah. “There is nothing among my treasures that I did not show them.”
Rekel je: »Kaj so videli v tvoji hiši?« Ezekíja je odgovoril: »Videli so vse stvari, ki so v moji hiši. Ničesar ni med mojimi zakladi, česar jim ne bi razkazal.«
16 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the LORD:
Izaija je rekel Ezekíju: »Poslušaj Gospodovo besedo:
17 The time will surely come when everything in your palace and all that your fathers have stored up until this day will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD.
›Glej, pridejo dnevi, ko bo vse, kar je v tvoji hiši, in to, kar so tvoji očetje prihranili v shrambi do tega dne, odneseno v Babilon. Nič ne bo ostalo, ‹ govori Gospod.
18 And some of your descendants, your own flesh and blood, will be taken away to be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.”
›Odvedli bodo izmed tvojih sinov, ki bodo izšli iz tebe, ki jih boš zaplodil in bodo evnuhi v palači babilonskega kralja.‹«
19 But Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the LORD that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “Will there not at least be peace and security in my lifetime?”
Potem je Ezekíja rekel Izaiju: »Dobra je Gospodova beseda, ki si mi jo govoril.« Rekel je: » Ali ni dobro, če bosta v mojih dneh mir in resnica?«
20 As for the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, along with all his might and how he constructed the pool and the tunnel to bring water into the city, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Ostala Ezekíjeva dela in vsa njegova moč in kako je naredil bazen in kanal in privedel vodo v mesto, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Judovih kraljev?
21 And Hezekiah rested with his fathers, and his son Manasseh reigned in his place.
Ezekíja je zaspal s svojimi očeti in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Manáse.
