2 Kings 7
1 Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the LORD says: ‘About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel.’”
Tada reèe Jelisije: èujte rijeè Gospodnju: tako veli Gospod: sjutra æe u ovo doba biti mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal a dvije mjere jeèma za sikal na vratima Samarijskim.
2 But the officer on whose arm the king leaned answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” “You will see it with your own eyes,” replied Elisha, “but you will not eat any of it.”
A vojvoda, na kojega se ruku car naslanjaše, odgovori èovjeku Božijemu i reèe: da Gospod naèini okna na nebu, bi li moglo to biti? A Jelisije reèe: eto, ti æeš vidjeti svojim oèima, ali ga neæeš jesti.
3 Now there were four men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate, and they said to one another, “Why just sit here until we die?
A bijahu na vratima èetiri èovjeka gubava, i rekoše jedan drugomu: što sjedimo ovdje da umremo?
4 If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ we will die there from the famine in the city; but if we sit here, we will also die. So come now, let us go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they let us live, we will live; if they kill us, we will die.”
Da reèemo: da uðemo u grad, glad je u gradu, te æemo umrijeti ondje: a da ostanemo ovdje, opet æemo umrijeti; nego hajde da uskoèimo u oko Sirski: ako nas ostave u životu, ostaæemo u životu, ako li nas pogube, poginuæemo.
5 So they arose at twilight and went to the camp of the Arameans. But when they came to the outskirts of the camp, there was not a man to be found.
I tako ustavši u sumrak poðoše u oko Sirski, i doðoše do kraja okola Sirskoga, i gle, ne bješe nikoga.
6 For the Lord had caused the Arameans to hear the sound of chariots, horses, and a great army, so that they said to one another, “Look, the king of Israel must have hired the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to attack us.”
Jer Gospod uèini te se u okolu Sirskom èu lupa kola i konja i velike vojske, te rekoše jedan drugomu: eto car je Izrailjev najmio na nas careve Hetejske i careve Misirske da udare na nas.
7 Thus the Arameans had arisen and fled at twilight, abandoning their tents and horses and donkeys. The camp was intact, and they had run for their lives.
Te se podigoše i pobjegoše po mraku ostavivši šatore svoje i konje svoje i magarce svoje i oko kao što je bio, i pobjegoše radi duša svojih.
8 When the lepers reached the edge of the camp, they went into a tent to eat and drink. Then they carried off the silver, gold, and clothing, and went and hid them. On returning, they entered another tent, carried off some items from there, and hid them.
Pa kad doðoše gubavci na kraj okola, uðoše u jedan šator, i najedoše se i napiše se, i pokupiše iz njega srebro i zlato i haljine, i otidoše te sakriše. Pa se vratiše i uðoše u drugi šator, pa pokupiše i iz njega, i otidoše te sakriše.
9 Finally, they said to one another, “We are not doing what is right. Today is a day of good news. If we are silent and wait until morning light, our sin will overtake us. Now, therefore, let us go and tell the king’s household.”
Tada rekoše meðu sobom: ne radimo dobro; ovaj je dan dan dobrijeh glasova; a mi šutimo. Ako ušèekamo do zore, stignuæe nas bezakonje. Zato sada hajde da idemo i javimo domu carevu.
10 So they went and called out to the gatekeepers of the city, saying, “We went to the Aramean camp and no one was there—not a trace—only tethered horses and donkeys, and the tents were intact.”
I tako došavši dozvaše vratara gradskoga i kazaše mu govoreæi: idosmo u oko Sirski, i gle, nema nikoga, ni glasa èovjeèijega; nego konji povezani i magarci povezani, i šatori kako su bili.
11 The gatekeepers shouted the news, and it was reported to the king’s household.
A on dozva ostale vratare, i javiše u dom carev.
12 So the king got up in the night and said to his servants, “Let me tell you what the Arameans have done to us. They know we are starving, so they have left the camp to hide in the field, thinking, ‘When they come out of the city, we will take them alive and enter the city.’”
A car ustavši po noæi reèe slugama svojim: kazaæu vam sada šta su nam uèinili Sirci. Znadu da gladujemo, zato otidoše iz okola da se sakriju u polju govoreæi: kad izidu iz grada, pohvataæemo ih žive i uæi æemo u grad.
13 But one of his servants replied, “Please, have scouts take five of the horses that remain in the city. Their plight will be no worse than all the Israelites who are left here. You can see that all the Israelites here are doomed. So let us send them and find out.”
A jedan od sluga njegovijeh odgovori i reèe: da uzmemo pet ostalijeh konja što još ima u gradu; gle, to je sve što je ostalo od mnoštva konja Izrailjskih; to je sve što nije izginulo od mnoštva konja Izrailjskih; da pošljemo da vidimo.
14 Then the scouts took two chariots with horses, and the king sent them after the Aramean army, saying, “Go and see.”
I uzeše dva konja kolska, koje posla car za vojskom Sirskom, govoreæi: idite i vidite.
15 And they tracked them as far as the Jordan, and indeed, the whole way was littered with the clothing and equipment the Arameans had thrown off in haste. So the scouts returned and told the king.
I otidoše za njima do Jordana, i gle, po svemu putu bijaše puno haljina i sudova, koje pobacaše Sirci u hitnji. Tada se vratiše poslanici i javiše caru.
16 Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Arameans. It was then that a seah of fine flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
Tada izide narod i razgrabi oko Sirski; i bješe mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal, i dvije mjere jeèma za sikal, po rijeèi Gospodnjoj.
17 Now the king had appointed the officer on whose arm he leaned to be in charge of the gate, but the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died, just as the man of God had foretold when the king had come to him.
I car postavi na vrata onoga vojvodu, na kojega se ruku naslanjaše, a narod ga izgazi na vratima, te umrije, po rijeèi èovjeka Božijega, koju reèe kad car k njemu doðe.
18 It happened just as the man of God had told the king: “About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel.”
Jer kad èovjek Božji reèe caru: dvije mjere jeèma za sikal i mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal biæe sjutra u ovo doba na vratima Samarijskim,
19 And the officer had answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” So Elisha had replied, “You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it!”
A onaj vojvoda odgovori èovjeku Božijemu govoreæi: da Gospod naèini okna na nebu, bi li moglo biti što kažeš? A Jelisije reèe: ti æeš vidjeti svojim oèima, ali ga neæeš jesti.
20 And that is just what happened to him. The people trampled him in the gateway, and he died.
I zbi mu se to, jer ga izgazi narod na vratima, te umrije.
