2 Kings 9
1 Now the prophet Elisha called one of the sons of the prophets, and he said to him: “Gird your waist, and take this little bottle of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
Prorok Elizej pozva jednoga od proročkih sinova i reče mu: “Opaši se, uzmi sa sobom ovu posudu s uljem pa idi u Ramot Gilead.
2 And when you arrive in that place, you will see Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. And upon entering, you shall raise him up from the midst of his brothers, and you shall lead him into an inner room.
Kad onamo stigneš, potraži Jehua, sina Jošafatova, sina Nimšijeva. Kad ga nađeš, izvedi ga između njegovih drugova i uvedi ga u pokrajnju sobu.
3 And taking the little bottle of oil, you shall pour it upon his head, and you shall say: ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’ And you shall open the door and flee. And you shall not remain in that place.”
I uzmi posudu s uljem, izlij mu je na glavu i reci: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja izraelskoga.' Zatim otvori vrata i bježi, ne oklijevaj.”
4 Therefore, the young man, a servant of the prophet, went away to Ramoth Gilead.
Tada mladi prorok ode u Ramot Gilead.
5 And he entered that place, and behold, the leaders of the army were sitting there, and he said, “I have a word for you, O prince.” And Jehu said, “For which one among us all?” And he said, “For you, O prince.”
Kad je stigao, zapovjednici vojske upravo su sjedili na okupu. On reče: “Imam ti riječ reći, zapovjedniče!” Jehu upita: “Komu od nas?” On odgovori: “Tebi, zapovjedniče!”
6 And he rose up and entered into the room. And he poured the oil on his head, and he said: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘I have anointed you as king over Israel, the people of the Lord.
Jehu tada ustade i uđe u kuću. Mladi mu čovjek izli ulje na glavu i reče mu: “Ovako veli Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Jahvinim narodom, nad Izraelom.
7 And you shall strike down the house of Ahab, your lord. And I will avenge the blood of my servants, the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, from the hand of Jezebel.
Ti ćeš pobiti obitelj Ahaba, gospodara tvoga, a ja ću osvetiti krv svojih slugu proroka i krv sviju službenika Jahvinih na Izebeli
8 And I will destroy the entire house of Ahab. And I will cause to pass away from Ahab, whatever urinates against a wall, and whatever is lame, and whatever is least in Israel.
i na svoj obitelji Ahabovoj. Iskorijenit ću Ahabu sve što mokri uza zid, robove i slobodnjake u Izraelu.
9 And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha, the son of Ahijah.
Učinit ću s domom Ahabovim kao s domom Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, i kao s domom Baše, sina Ahijina.
10 Also, the dogs will consume Jezebel, in the field of Jezreel. Neither will there be anyone who may bury her.’” And then he opened the door, and he fled.
A Izebelu će proždrijeti psi na polju jizreelskom i nitko je neće pokopati.'” - Zatim otvori vrata i pobježe.
11 Then Jehu went out to the servants of his lord. And they said to him: “Is everything well? Why has this insane man come to you?” And he said to them, “You know the man, and what he said.”
Jehu iziđe k časnicima svoga gospodara. Oni ga upitaše: “Je li sve u miru? Zašto je ta budala dolazila k tebi?” On im odgovori: “Znate čovjeka i besjedu njegovu.”
12 But they responded, “That is false; instead, you should tell us.” And he said to them, “He said to me these certain things, and he said, ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’”
Oni rekoše: “Ne znamo! Kazuj nam!” On im reče: “Govorio mi je tako i tako i rekao mi: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Izraelom.'”
13 And so they hurried away. And each one, taking his cloak, placed it under his feet, in the manner of a seat for judgment. And they sounded the trumpet, and they said: “Jehu reigns!”
Odmah oni uzeše svoje ogrtače i prostriješe ih pred njim po stepenicama, zatrubiše u rogove i povikaše: “Jehu je kralj!”
14 Then Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Gilead, he and all of Israel, against Hazael, the king of Syria.
Tako Jehu, sin Jošafata, sina Nimšijeva, skova urotu protiv Jorama - Joram je tada branio Ramot Gilead sa svim Izraelcima protiv Hazaela, aramejskog kralja.
15 And he had returned, so that he might be cured at Jezreel, because of his wounds. For the Syrians had struck him, while he was fighting against Hazael, the king of Syria. And Jehu said, “If it pleases you, let no one depart, fleeing from the city; otherwise he may go and give a report in Jezreel.”
Ali se kralj Joram vratio u Jizreel da liječi rane koje su mu zadali Aramejci u boju s Hazaelom, aramejskim kraljem. - I reče Jehu: “Ako vam je po volji, neka nitko ne utekne iz grada da odnese vijest u Jizreel.”
16 And he climbed up and set out for Jezreel, because Joram was sick there, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, had gone down to visit Joram.
Jehu se tada pope na kola i ode prema Jizreelu, jer je Joram ondje bolovao, i Ahazja, kralj judejski, došao ga posjetiti.
17 And so the watchman, who was standing upon the tower of Jezreel, saw the crowd of Jehu arriving, and he said, “I see a crowd.” And Joram said: “Take a chariot, and send to meet them. And those who go should say, ‘Is everything well?’”
Stražar koji je stajao na kuli u Jizreelu, videći da dolazi Jehuova četa, javi: “Vidim nekakvu četu.” Joram naredi: “Uzmi konjanika i pošalji ga pred njih da upita: je li sve s mirom.”
18 Therefore, he who had climbed into the chariot went away to meet him, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is everything peaceful?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.” Also the watchman gave a report, saying, “The messenger went to them, but he did not return.”
Ode konjanik preda nj i reče: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.” Stražar javi: “Glasnik je stigao do njih, ali se ne vraća.”
19 And then he sent a second chariot of horses. And he went to them, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is there peace?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.”
Kralj posla drugoga konjanika. Taj dođe k njima i upita: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu mu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.”
20 Then the watchman gave a report, saying: “He went all the way to them, but he did not return. But their advance is like the advance of Jehu, the son of Nimshi. For he advances precipitously.”
Stražar opet javi: “Došao je do njih, ali se ne vraća. A vožnja je kao vožnja Jehua, sina Nimšijeva: vozi kao mahnit!”
21 And Joram said, “Yoke the chariot.” And they yoked his chariot. And Joram, the king of Israel, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, departed, each in his chariot. And they went out to meet Jehu. And they met him in the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite.
Joram reče: “Preži!” I upregoše u njegova kola. Joram, kralj Izraela, i judejski kralj Ahazja iziđoše, svaki u svojim kolima, u susret Jehuu. Susretoše ga u polju Nabota Jizreelca.
22 And when Joram had seen Jehu, he said, “Is there peace, Jehu?” And he responded: “What is peace? For still the fornications of your mother, Jezebel, and her many poisons, are thriving.”
Kad Joram ugleda Jehua, upita ga: “Je li sve u miru, Jehu?” Ovaj odgovori: “Kakvu miru dok traju bludništva tvoje majke Izebele i njena mnoga čaranja!”
23 Then Joram turned his hand, and, fleeing, he said to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
Joram okrenu i udari u bijeg govoreći Ahazji: “Izdaja, Ahazja!”
24 But Jehu bent his bow with his hand, and he struck Joram between the shoulders. And the arrow went through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.
Jehu se lati luka, ustrijeli Jorama među pleća: strijela mu prođe posred srca te se on sruši u kola.
25 And Jehu said to Bidkar, his commander: “Take and cast him into the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite. For I remember, when you and I, sitting in a chariot, were following Ahab, this man’s father, that the Lord lifted this burden upon him, saying:
Jehu reče svome dvorjaniku Bidkaru: “Digni ga i baci na njivu Nabota Jizreelca. Sjeti se: kad smo ja i ti jahali za njegovim ocem Ahabom, kako Jahve izreče protiv njega:
26 ‘Certainly, I will repay you in this field, says the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his sons, which I saw yesterday, says the Lord.’ Therefore, take him now, and cast him into the field, in accord with the word of the Lord.”
'Kunem se: kako sinoć vidjeh krv Nabotovu i krv njegovih sinova,' riječ je Jahvina, 'tako ću ti vratiti isto na ovome polju,' riječ je Jahvina. Digni ga, dakle, i baci ga na to polje, prema riječi Jahvinoj.”
27 But Ahaziah, the king of Judah, seeing this, fled along the way of the garden house. And Jehu pursued him, and he said, “Strike this one also in his chariot.” And they struck him on the ascent to Gur, which is beside Ibleam. But he fled into Megiddo, and he died there.
Kada je to vidio judejski kralj Ahazja, pobježe prema Bet Haganu, ali ga je Jehu gonio i naredio: “Ubijte i njega!” Ranili su ga u kolima na brdu Guru, koje se nalazi kod Jibleama. Ali je umakao u Megido i ondje umrije.
28 And his servants placed him upon his chariot, and they took him to Jerusalem. And they buried him in the sepulcher with his fathers, in the city of David.
Njegove su ga sluge u kolima prenijele u Jeruzalem i sahranile ga u grobnici kraj njegovih otaca, u Davidovu gradu.
29 In the eleventh year of Joram, the son of Ahab, Ahaziah reigned over Judah.
Jedanaeste godine kraljevanja Jorama, sina Ahabova, Ahazja postade kralj nad Judejom.
30 And Jehu went into Jezreel. But Jezebel, hearing of his arrival, painted her eyes with cosmetics, and adorned her head. And she watched through a window,
A Jehu bijaše ušao u Jizreel. Kad je to čula Izebela, namaza oči, uresi glavu i pogleda s prozora.
31 as Jehu was entering through the gate. And she said, “Is it possible for there to be peace for Zimri, who killed his lord?”
I kad je Jehu ulazio na vrata, ona reče: “Kako je, Zimri, ubojico svoga gospodara?”
32 And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and he said, “Who is this woman?” And two or three eunuchs bowed down before him.
Jehu okrenu lice prema prozoru i reče: “Tko je sa mnom, tko?” I dva-tri dvoranina pogledaše prema njemu.
33 And he said to them, “Throw her down with force.” And they threw her forcefully, and the wall was splattered with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trampled her.
On reče: “Bacite je dolje.” I oni je baciše. Njena je krv poprskala zidove i konje, koji je pogaziše.
34 And when he had entered, so that he might eat and drink, he said: “Go, and see to that cursed woman, and bury her. For she is the daughter of a king.”
Ušao je on, jeo i pio, a zatim naredio: “Pogledajte onu prokletnicu i sahranite je, jer je bila kraljevska kći.”
35 But when they had gone, so that they might bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the ends of her hands.
I odoše da je sahrane, ali ne nađoše ništa od nje, osim lubanje, nogu i ruku.
36 And returning, they reported to him. And Jehu said: “It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke through his servant, Elijah the Tishbite, saying: ‘In the field of Jezreel, the dogs will consume the flesh of Jezebel.
Vratiše se i javiše, a Jehu reče: “To je riječ koju je Jahve objavio preko svoga sluge Ilije Tišbijca: 'U polju jizreelskom psi će proždrijeti Izebelino tijelo.
37 And the flesh of Jezebel will be like dung upon the face of the earth, in the field of Jezreel, so that those who pass by may say: Is this that same Jezebel?’”
Izebelino truplo bit će kao gnoj u polju, da se neće moći kazati: Ovo je Izebela.'”
