2 Kings 9
1 Now Elisha the prophet summoned one of the sons of the prophets and said to him, “Tuck your cloak under your belt, take this flask of oil, and go to Ramoth-gilead.
Prerok Elizej je poklical enega izmed preroških otrok in mu rekel: »Opaši svoja ledja, v svojo roko vzemi to stekleničko olja in pojdi v Ramót Gileád
2 When you arrive, look for Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. Go in, get him away from his companions, and take him to an inner room.
in ko prideš tja, tam poglej za Jehújem, sinom Józafata, Nimšíjevim sinom in vstopi in naj vstane izmed svojih bratov in ga odvedi v notranjo sobo.
3 Then take the flask of oil, pour it on his head, and declare, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’ Then open the door and run. Do not delay!”
Potem vzemi stekleničko olja, ga izlij na njegovo glavo in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mazilil sem te za kralja nad Izraelom.‹‹ Potem odpri vrata, zbeži in ne obotavljaj se.«
4 So the young prophet went to Ramoth-gilead,
Tako je mladenič, mladi mož prerok, odšel do Ramót Gileáda.
5 and when he arrived, the army commanders were sitting there. “I have a message for you, commander,” he said. “For which of us?” asked Jehu. “For you, commander,” he replied.
Ko je prišel, glej, so poveljniki vojske sedeli in rekel je: »Naročilo imam zate, oh poveljnik.« Jehú je rekel: »Za katerega izmed nas vseh?« Rekel je: »Zate, oh poveljnik.«
6 So Jehu got up and went into the house, where the young prophet poured the oil on his head and declared, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anoint you king over the LORD’s people Israel.
Ta je vstal in odšel v hišo in na njegovo glavo je izlil olje ter mu rekel: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Mazilil sem te za kralja nad Gospodovim ljudstvom, celó nad Izraelom.
7 And you are to strike down the house of your master Ahab, so that I may avenge the blood of My servants the prophets and the blood of all the servants of the LORD shed by the hand of Jezebel.
Udaril boš hišo svojega gospodarja Ahába, da lahko maščujem kri svojih služabnikov prerokov in kri vseh Gospodovih služabnikov pri Jezabelini roki.
8 The whole house of Ahab will perish, and I will cut off from Ahab every male, both slave and free, in Israel.
Kajti celotna Ahábova hiša bo uničena in od Ahába bom iztrebil tistega, ki lula proti zidu in tistega, ki je zaprt in je ostal v Izraelu.
9 I will make the house of Ahab like the houses of Jeroboam son of Nebat and Baasha son of Ahijah.
Ahábovo hišo bom naredil podobno hiši Nebátovega sina Jerobeáma in podobno hiši Ahíjevega sina Bašája
10 And on the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour Jezebel, and there will be no one to bury her.’” Then the young prophet opened the door and ran.
in psi bodo pojedli Jezabelo na jezreélskem deležu in nikogar ne bo, da bi jo pokopal.‹« In odprl je vrata ter zbežal.
11 When Jehu went out to the servants of his master, they asked, “Is everything all right? Why did this madman come to you?” “You know his kind and their babble,” he replied.
Potem je Jehú prišel k služabnikom svojega gospoda in nekdo mu je rekel: » Ali je vse dobro? Zakaj je ta nori človek prišel k tebi?« Rekel jim je: »Poznate moža in njegovo govorjenje.«
12 “That is a lie!” they said. “Tell us now!” So Jehu answered, “He talked to me about this and that, and he said, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’”
Rekli so: » To je laž. Povej nam torej.« Rekel je: »Tako in tako mi je rekel, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mazili sem te za kralja nad Izraelom.‹«
13 Quickly, each man took his garment and put it under Jehu on the bare steps. Then they blew the ram’s horn and proclaimed, “Jehu is king!”
Potem so pohiteli in vsak mož je vzel svojo obleko in jo položil pod njega na vrhu stopnic in zatrobili so s šofarji, rekoč: »Jehú je kralj.«
14 Thus Jehu son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. (Now Joram and all Israel had been defending Ramoth-gilead against Hazael king of Aram,
Tako je Jehú, Józafatov sin, Nimšíjev sin, koval zaroto zoper Joráma. (Torej Jorám se je zadrževal v Ramót Gileádu, on in ves Izrael, zaradi sirskega kralja Hazaéla.
15 but King Joram had returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he had suffered at the hands of the Arameans in the battle against Hazael their king.) So Jehu said, “If you commanders wish to make me king, then do not let anyone escape from the city to go and tell it in Jezreel.”
Toda kralj Jorám se je vrnil, da bi bil v Jezreélu ozdravljen ran, ki so mu jih zadali Sirci, ko se je bojeval s sirskim kraljem Hazaélom.) Jehú je rekel: »Če tako mislite, potem naj nihče ne gre naprej niti naj ne zbeži iz mesta, da bi šel to povedat v Jezreél.«
16 Then Jehu got into his chariot and went to Jezreel, because Joram was laid up there and Ahaziah king of Judah had gone down to see him.
Tako je Jehú jahal na bojnem vozu in odšel v Jezreél, kajti tam je ležal Jorám. In Judov kralj Ahazjá je prišel dol, da vidi Joráma.
17 Now the watchman standing on the tower in Jezreel saw Jehu’s troops approaching, and he called out, “I see a company of troops!” “Choose a rider,” Joram commanded. “Send him out to meet them and ask, ‘Have you come in peace?’”
Tam je stal stražar na stolpu v Jezreélu in ogledoval Jehújevo skupino, medtem ko je prihajala in rekel: »Vidim skupino.« Jorám je rekel: »Vzemi konjenika in ga pošlji, da jih sreča in naj reče: › Ali je mir?‹«
18 So a horseman rode off to meet Jehu and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.” And the watchman reported, “The messenger reached them, but he is not coming back.”
Tako je nekdo odšel na konjskem hrbtu, da ga sreča in rekel: »Tako govori kralj: › Je to mir?‹« Jehú je rekel: »Kaj imaš opraviti z mirom? Obrni se za menoj.« Stražar je povedal, rekoč: »Poslanec je prišel do njih, toda ne vrača se.«
19 So the king sent out a second horseman, who went to them and said, “This is what the king asks: ‘Have you come in peace?’” “What do you know about peace?” Jehu replied. “Fall in behind me.”
Potem je poslal ven drugega, na konjskem hrbtu, ki je prišel k njim in rekel: »Tako govori kralj: › Ali je mir?‹« Jehú je odgovoril: »Kaj imaš opraviti z mirom? Obrni se za menoj.«
20 Again the watchman reported, “He reached them, but he is not coming back. And the charioteer is driving like Jehu son of Nimshi —he is driving like a madman!”
Stražar je povedal, rekoč: »Prišel je celo k njim, toda ne vrača se in vožnja je podobna vožnji Nimšíjevega sina Jehúja, kajti divje vozi.«
21 “Harness!” Joram shouted, and they harnessed his chariot. Then Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah set out, each in his own chariot, and met Jehu on the property of Naboth the Jezreelite.
Jorám je rekel: »Pripravite.« In njegov bojni voz je bil pripravljen. Izraelov kralj Jorám in Judov kralj Ahazjá sta odšla ven, vsak na svojem bojnem vozu in odšla sta ven zoper Jehúja in ga srečala na deležu Jezreélca Nabóta.
22 When Joram saw Jehu, he asked, “Have you come in peace, Jehu?” “How can there be peace,” he replied, “as long as the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?”
Pripetilo se je, ko je Jorám zagledal Jehúja, da je rekel: » Ali je mir, Jehú?« Odgovoril je: »Kakšen mir, dokler je tako mnogo vlačugarstev in čaranj tvoje matere Jezabele?«
23 Joram turned around and fled, calling out to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
Jorám je obrnil svoji roki, pobegnil in rekel Ahazjáju: » To je izdaja, oh Ahazjá.«
24 Then Jehu drew his bow and shot Joram between the shoulders. The arrow pierced his heart, and he slumped down in his chariot.
Jehú je z vso svojo močjo napel lok in zadel Jehoráma med lopatici in puščica je izšla pri njegovem srcu in zgrudil se je na svoj bojni voz.
25 And Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, “Pick him up and throw him into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite. For remember that when you and I were riding together behind his father Ahab, the LORD lifted up this burden against him:
Potem je Jehú rekel svojemu poveljniku Bidkárju: »Poberi ga in vrzi ga na delež polja Jezreélca Nabóta, kajti spomni se, kako je Gospod nanj položil to breme, ko sva jaz in ti skupaj jahala za njegovim očetom Ahábom:
26 ‘As surely as I saw the blood of Naboth and the blood of his sons yesterday, declares the LORD, so will I repay you on this plot of ground, declares the LORD.’ Now then, according to the word of the LORD, pick him up and throw him on the plot of ground.”
›Zagotovo sem včeraj videl Nabótovo kri in kri njegovih sinov, govori Gospod, in jaz te bom poplačal na tem deležu, govori Gospod.‹ Sedaj ga torej vzemi in vrzi na kos zemlje, glede na Gospodovo besedo.«
27 When King Ahaziah of Judah saw this, he fled up the road toward Beth-haggan. And Jehu pursued him, shouting, “Shoot him too!” So they shot Ahaziah in his chariot on the Ascent of Gur, near Ibleam, and he fled to Megiddo and died there.
Toda ko je Judov kralj Ahazjá to videl, je zbežal po poti vrtne hiše. Jehú je sledil za njim in rekel: »Udarite tudi njega na bojnem vozu.« Storili so tako ob vzponu na Gur, ki je poleg Jibleáma. In pobegnil je v Megído ter tam umrl.
28 Then his servants carried him by chariot to Jerusalem and buried him with his fathers in his tomb in the City of David.
Njegovi služabniki so ga na bojnem vozu prenesli v Jeruzalem in ga pokopali v njegovem mavzoleju, z njegovimi očeti, v Davidovem mestu.
29 (In the eleventh year of Joram son of Ahab, Ahaziah had become king over Judah.)
V enajstem letu Ahábovega sina Joráma je nad Judom začel kraljevati Ahazjá.
30 Now when Jehu arrived in Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it. So she painted her eyes, adorned her head, and looked down from a window.
Ko je Jehú prišel v Jezreél, je Jezabela slišala o tem in si naličila svoj obraz, okrasila svojo glavo in pogledala skozi okno.
31 And as Jehu entered the gate, she asked, “Have you come in peace, O Zimri, murderer of your master?”
Ko je Jehú vstopil pri velikih vratih, je rekla: » Ali je imel Zimrí, ki je usmrtil svojega gospodarja, mir?«
32 He looked up at the window and called out, “Who is on my side? Who?” And two or three eunuchs looked down at him.
Svoj obraz je povzdignil proti oknu in rekel: »Kdo je na moji strani? Kdo?« K njemu so pogledali dva ali trije evnuhi.
33 “Throw her down!” yelled Jehu. So they threw her down, and her blood splattered on the wall and on the horses as they trampled her underfoot.
Rekel je: »Vrzite jo dol.« Tako so jo vrgli dol in nekaj njene krvi je poškropilo zid in konje; in pomendral jo je pod stopalom.
34 Then Jehu went in and ate and drank. “Take care of this cursed woman,” he said, “and bury her, for she was the daughter of a king.”
Ko je vstopil, je jedel, pil in rekel: »Pojdite, poglejte sedaj to prekleto žensko in jo pokopljite, kajti kraljeva hči je.«
35 But when they went out to bury her, they found nothing but her skull, her feet, and the palms of her hands.
Odšli so, da jo pokopljejo, toda niso našli od nje več kot lobanjo, stopala in dlani njenih rok.
36 So they went back and told Jehu, who replied, “This is the word of the LORD, which He spoke through His servant Elijah the Tishbite: ‘On the plot of ground at Jezreel the dogs will devour the flesh of Jezebel.
Zato so ponovno prišli in mu povedali. Rekel je: »To je beseda od Gospoda, ki jo je govoril po svojem služabniku, Tišbéjcu Eliju, rekoč: ›V Jezreélovem deležu bodo psi jedli Jezabelino meso.
37 And Jezebel’s body will lie like dung in the field on the plot of ground at Jezreel, so that no one can say: This is Jezebel.’”
In Jezabelino truplo bo kakor iztrebek na obličju polja v Jezreélovem deležu, tako da ne bodo rekli: ›To je Jezabela.‹«
