< Kings IV 1 >

1 And Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Achaab.
А по смрти Ахавовој одметнуше се Моавци од Израиља.
2 And Ochozias fell through the lattice that was in his upper chamber in Samaria and was sick; and he sent messengers, and said to them, Go and enquire of Baal fly, the god of Accaron, whether I shall recover of this my sickness. And they went to enquire of him.
А Охозија паде кроз решетку из горње собе своје у Самарији, и разболе се; па посла посланике и рече им: Идите, питајте Велзевула бога акаронског хоћу ли оздравити од ове болести.
3 And an angel of the Lord called Eliu the Thesbite, saying, Arise, and go to meet the messengers of Ochozias king of Samaria, and you shall say to them, [Is it] because there is no God in Israel, [that] you go to enquire of Baal fly, the God of Accaron? but [it shall] not [be] so.
Али анђео Господњи рече Илији Тесвићанину: Устани, изађи на сусрет посланицима цара самаријског и реци им: Еда ли нема Бога у Израиљу, те идете да питате Велзевула бога у Акарону?
4 For thus says the Lord, The bed on which you are gone up, you shall not come down from it, for you shall surely die. And Eliu went, and said [so] to them.
А зато овако вели Господ: Нећеш се дигнути са постеље на коју си легао, него ћеш умрети. Потом отиде Илија.
5 And the messengers returned to him, and he said to them, Why have you returned?
А слуге се вратише к Охозији, и он им рече: Што сте се вратили?
6 And they said to him, A man came up to meet us, and said to us, Go, return to the king that sent you, and say to him, Thus says the Lord, [Is it] because there is no God in Israel, [that] you go to enquire of Baal fly, the God of Accaron? [it shall] not [be] so: the bed on which you are gone up, you shall not come down from it, for you shall surely die.
А они му рекоше: Срете нас један човек, и рече нам: Идите, вратите се к цару који вас је послао, и реците му: Овако вели Господ: Еда ли нема Бога у Израиљу, те шаљеш да питаш Велзевула бога у Акарону? Зато нећеш се дигнути с постеље на коју си легао, него ћеш умрети.
7 So they returned and reported to the king as Eliu said: and he said to them, What [was] the manner of the man who went up to meet you, and spoke to you these words?
А он им рече: Какав беше на очи тај човек који вас срете и то вам рече?
8 And they said to him, [He was] a hairy man, and girded with a leather girdle about his loins. And he said, This is Eliu the Thesbite.
А они му одговорише: Беше сав космат и опасан кожним појасом. А он рече: То је Илија Тесвићанин.
9 And he sent to him a captain of fifty and his fifty; and he went up to him: and, behold, Eliu sat on the top of a mountain. And the captain of fifty spoke to him, and said, O man of God, the king has called you, come down.
Тада посла к њему педесетника с његовом педесеторицом; и он отиде к њему; и гле, он сеђаше наврх горе: и педесетник му рече: Човече Божји, цар је заповедио, сиђи.
10 And Eliu answered and said to the captain of fifty, And if I [am] a man of God, fire shall come down out of heaven, and devour you and your fifty. And fire came down out of heaven, and devoured him and his fifty.
А Илија одговарајући рече педесетнику: Ако сам човек Божји, нека сиђе огањ с неба и прождре тебе и твоју педесеторицу. И сиђе огањ с неба и прождре њега и његову педесеторицу.
11 And the king sent a second time to him another captain of fifty, and his fifty. And the captain of fifty spoke to him, and said, O man of God, thus says the king, Come down quickly.
Опет посла к њему другог педесетника с његовом педесеторицом, који проговори и рече му: Човече Божји, цар је тако заповедио, сиђи брже.
12 And Eliu answered and spoke to him, and said, If I [am] a man of God, fire shall come down out of heaven, and devour you and your fifty. And fire came down out of heaven, and devoured him and his fifty.
А Илија одговори и рече им: Ако сам човек Божји, нека сиђе огањ с неба и прождре тебе и твоју педесеторицу. И сиђе огањ Божји с неба и прождре њега и његову педесеторицу.
13 And the king sent yet again a captain and his fifty. And the third captain of fifty came, and knelt on his knees before Eliu, and entreated him, and spoke to him and said, O man of God, let my life, and the life of these fifty your servants, be precious in your eyes.
Тада опет посла трећег педесетника с његовом педесеторицом. А овај трећи педесетник кад дође, клече на колена своја пред Илијом, и молећи га рече му: Човече Божји, да ти је драга душа моја и душа ове педесеторице, слуга твојих.
14 Behold, fire came down from heaven, and devoured the two first captains of fifty: and now, I pray, let my life be precious in your eyes.
Ето, сишао је огањ с неба и прождрао прва два педесетника с њиховом педесеторицом; али сада да ти је драга душа моја.
15 And the angel of the Lord spoke to Eliu, and said, Go down with him, be not afraid of them. And Eliu rose up, and went down with him to the king.
А анђео Господњи рече Илији: Иди с њим, и не бој га се. И уста Илија и отиде с њим к цару.
16 And Eliu spoke to him, and said, Thus says the Lord, Why have you sent messengers to enquire of Baal fly, the god of Accaron? [it shall] not [be] so: the bed on which you are gone up, you shall not come down from it, for you shall surely die.
И рече му: Овако вели Господ: зато што си слао посланике да питају Велзевула бога у Акарону као да нема Бога у Израиљу да би Га питао, нећеш се дигнути с постеље на коју си легао, него ћеш умрети.
17 So he died according to the word of the Lord which Eliu has spoken.
И умре по речи Господњој, коју рече Илија, а на његово се место зацари Јорам, друге године царовања Јорама сина Јосафатовог над Јудом, јер он нема сина.
18 And the rest of the acts of Ochozias which he did, behold, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
А остала дела Охозијина што је чинио, нису ли записана у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
