2 Kings 10
1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And so Jehu wrote letters, and he sent to Samaria, to the nobles of the city, and to those greater by birth, and to those who had raised Ahab’s sons, saying:
А Ахав имаше седамдесет синова у Самарији; и Јуј написа књигу и посла је у Самарију ка главарима језраелским, старешинама и хранитељима Ахавовим, и рече:
2 “Immediately when you receive these letters, you who have your lord’s sons, and chariots, and horses, and reinforced cities, and weapons,
Како ова књига дође к вама, у којих су синови господара вашег и кола и коњи и град тврди и оружје,
3 choose him who is better and who pleases you from among the sons of your lord, and set him on the throne of his father, and fight for the house of your lord.”
Гледајте који је најбољи и највештији између синова господара вашег, те га посадите на престо оца његовог, и бијте се за дом господара свог.
4 But they were vehemently afraid, and they said: “Behold, two kings were not able to stand before him. So how will we be able to withstand him?”
Али се они врло уплашише и рекоше: Ето, два цара не одолеше му, а како ћемо му ми одолети?
5 Therefore, those who were in charge of the house, and the prefects of the city, and those greater by birth, and those who raised the sons, sent to Jehu, saying: “We are your servants. Whatever you will order, we will do. But we will not appoint a king for ourselves. Do whatever pleases you.”
И који беше над домом, и који беше над градом, и старешине и хранитељи послаше к Јују говорећи: Ми смо слуге твоје, чинићемо све што нам кажеш; нећемо никога постављати царем; чини шта ти је воља.
6 Then he again wrote letters to them a second time, saying: “If you are mine, and if you obey me, take the heads of the sons of your lord, and come to me at Jezreel at this same hour tomorrow.” Now the sons of the king, being seventy men, were being raised with the nobles of the city.
И он им написа другу књигу говорећи: Ако сте моји и слушате мене, узмите главе свих синова господара свог и дођите к мени сутра у ово доба у Језраел. А синови цареви, седамдесет људи, беху код најзнатнијих грађана, који их храњаху.
7 And when the letters had arrived to them, they took the sons of the king, and they killed the seventy men. And they placed their heads in baskets, and they sent these to him at Jezreel.
И кад им дође ова књига, узеше синове цареве и поклаше, седамдесет људи, и метнувши главе њихове у котарице послаше му у Језраел.
8 Then a messenger arrived and reported to him, saying, “They have brought the heads of the king’s sons.” And he responded, “Place them in two piles, beside the entrance of the gate, until morning.”
И дође гласник, који му јави говорећи: Донесоше главе синова царевих. А он рече: Сложите их у две гомиле на вратима, нека стоје до сутра.
9 And when it had become light, he went out. And standing there, he said to all the people: “You are just. If I have conspired against my lord, and if I have killed him, who has struck down all of these?
А ујутру изашав стаде и рече свему народу: Ви нисте криви; ето, ја се подигох на господара свог и убих га; али ко поби све ове?
10 Now therefore, see that none of the words of the Lord has fallen to the ground, which the Lord spoke over the house of Ahab, and that the Lord has done what he spoke by the hand of his servant Elijah.”
Видите сада да није изостала ниједна реч Господња коју рече Господ за дом Ахавов, него је Господ учинио што је говорио преко слуге свог Илије.
11 And so, Jehu struck down all who had remained from the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his nobles and friends and priests, until no remnant of them was left behind.
Потом поби Јуј све који беху остали од дома Ахавовог у Језраелу и све властеље његове и пријатеље његове и свештенике његове, да не оста ниједан.
12 And he rose up and went to Samaria. And when he had arrived at the shepherds’ cabin along the way,
Потом се подиже и пође да иде у Самарију; и кад беше код колибе пастирске на путу,
13 he found the brothers of Ahaziah, the king of Judah, and he said to them, “Who are you?” And they responded, “We are the brothers of Ahaziah, and we are going down to greet the sons of the king, and the sons of the queen.”
Нађе Јуј браћу Охозије цара Јудиног, и рече: Ко сте? Они рекоше: Ми смо браћа Охозијина и идемо да поздравимо синове цареве и синове царичине.
14 And he said, “Take them alive.” And when they had taken them alive, they cut their throats at the cistern beside the cabin, forty-two men. And he did not leave any of them behind.
Тада рече: Похватајте их живе. И похваташе их живе и поклаше их на студенцу код колибе пастирске, њих четрдесет, и не остави ниједног од њих.
15 And when he had gone away from there, he found Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, coming to meet him, and he blessed him. And he said to him, “Is your heart upright, just as my heart is with your heart?” And Jehonadab said, “It is.” Then he said, “If it is, then give me your hand.” He gave his hand to him. And so he lifted him up to himself in the chariot.
Потом отишавши оданде нађе Јонадава, сина Рихавовог, који га срете. А он га поздрави и рече му: Је ли срце твоје право као што је моје срце према твом? А Јонадав одговори: Јесте. Ако јесте, одговори Јуј, дај ми руку. И даде му руку; а он га узе к себи у кола.
16 And he said to him, “Come with me, and see my zeal for the Lord.” And he gave him a place in his chariot.
И рече: Хајде са мном, и види моју ревност за Господа. И одвезоше га на његовим колима.
17 And he led him into Samaria. And he struck down all who were left behind of Ahab in Samaria, even to the last one, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke through Elijah.
И кад дође у Самарију, поби све што беше остало од дома Ахавовог у Самарији докле га не истреби по речи коју Господ рече Илији.
18 Then Jehu gathered together the entire people. And he said to them: “Ahab worshipped Baal a little, but I will worship him even more.
Потом сабра Јуј сав народ и рече му: Ахав је мало служио Валу, Јуј ће му служити више.
19 Now therefore, summon to me all the prophets of Baal, and all his servants, and all his priests. Let no one be permitted not to come, for great is the sacrifice from me to Baal. Whoever will fail to come, he shall not live.” Now Jehu was doing this treacherously, so that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Зато дозовите ми све пророке Валове, све слуге његове и све свештенике његове, ниједан да не изостане, јер велику жртву хоћу да принесем Валу; ко не дође, погинуће. А Јуј чињаше тако из преваре хотећи побити слуге Валове.
20 And he said: “Sanctify a day of solemnity for Baal.” And he summoned
И рече Јуј: Светкујте светковину Валу. И огласише је.
21 and sent into all the borders of Israel. And all the servants of Baal came. There was left behind not even one who did not arrive. And they entered into the temple of Baal. And the house of Baal was filled, all the way from end to end.
И посла Јуј по свему Израиљу, те дођоше све слуге Валове, и не изоста ниједан да не дође; и уђоше у кућу Валову, и напуни се кућа Валова од краја до краја.
22 And he said to those who were over the vestments, “Bring forth vestments for all the servants of Baal.” And they brought forth vestments for them.
Тада рече ономе који беше над ризницом: Изнеси хаљине свим слугама Валовим. И изнесе им хаљине.
23 And Jehu, upon entering the temple of Baal with Jehonadab, the son of Rechab, said to the worshippers of Baal, “Inquire and see that there is no one with you from the servants of the Lord, but only from the servants of Baal.”
Затим уђе Јуј с Јонадавом, сином Рихавовим у кућу Валову, и рече слугама Валовим: Промотрите и видите да није ту с вама који слуга Господњи, него само слуге Валове.
24 Then they entered, so that they might offer victims and holocausts. But Jehu had prepared for himself eighty men outside. And he had said to them, “If anyone escapes from among these men, whom I have led into your hands, your life will take the place of his life.”
И тако уђоше да принесу приносе и жртве паљенице, а Јуј намести напољу осамдесет људи, и рече: Ако утече који од ових људи које вам дајем у руке, душа ће ваша бити за душу његову.
25 Then it happened that, when the holocaust had been completed, Jehu ordered his soldiers and officers, saying: “Enter and strike them down. Let no one escape.” And the soldiers and officers struck them down with the edge of the sword, and they cast them out. And they went into the city of the temple of Baal,
А кад се сврши жртва паљеница, заповеди Јуј војницима и војводама: Уђите, побијте их, да не изађе ниједан. И тако их побише оштрим мачем и побацаше их војници и војводе; потом отидоше у сваки град где беше кућа Валова.
26 and they took away the statue from the shrine of Baal, and they burned it up
И избацише ликове из куће Валове, и спалише их.
27 and crushed it. They also tore down the temple of Baal, and they made it into a latrine, even to this day.
И изломише лик Валов и раскопаше кућу Валову, и од ње начинише проходе до данашњег дана.
28 And thus did Jehu wipe away Baal from Israel.
Тако Јуј истреби Вала из Израиља.
29 Yet truly, he did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin. Neither did he forsake the golden calves, which were in Bethel and Dan.
Али не одступи Јуј од грехова Јеровоама сина Наватовог, којима наваде на грех Израиља, од златних телаца, који беху у Ветиљу и у Дану.
30 Then the Lord said to Jehu: “Since you have diligently carried out what was right and pleasing in my eyes, and since you have accomplished, against the house of Ahab, all that was in my heart, your sons shall sit upon the throne of Israel, even to the fourth generation.”
А Господ рече Јују: Што си добро свршио што је право преда мном, и што си учинио дому Ахавовом све што ми је било у срцу, зато ће синови твоји седети на престолу Израиљевом до четвртог кољена.
31 But Jehu did not take care, so that he might walk in the law of the Lord, the God of Israel, with all his heart. For he did not withdraw from the sins of Jeroboam, who had caused Israel to sin.
Али Јуј не пажаше да ходи по закону Господа Бога Израиљевог свим срцем својим, не одступи од грехова Јеровоамових, којима наведе на грех Израиља.
32 In those days, the Lord began to be weary of Israel. And Hazael struck them throughout all the parts of Israel,
У то време поче Господ крњити Израиља, јер их поби Азаило по свим међама Израиљевим.
33 from the Jordan opposite the eastern region, in all the land of Gilead, and Gad, and Reuben, and Manasseh, from Aroer, which is above the torrent Arnon, in both Gilead and Bashan.
Од Јордана к истоку сунчаном, сву земљу галадску, Гадову и Рувимову и Манасијину, од Ароира на потоку Арнону, и Галад и Васан.
34 But the rest of the words of Jehu, and all that he did, and his strength, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
А остала дела Јујева и све што је чинио, и сва јунаштва његова, нису ли записана у дневнику царева Израиљевих?
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz, his son, reigned in his place.
И почину Јуј код отаца својих, и погребоше га у Самарији; а на његово се место зацари Јоахаз син његов.
36 Now the days during which Jehu reigned over Israel, in Samaria, were twenty-eight years.
А царова Јуј над Израиљем у Самарији двадесет и осам година.
