1 Kings 20
1 And Ben-Hadad king of Syria assembled all his host; and there were thirty-two kings with him, and horses and chariots; and he went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
A Ven-Adad car Sirski skupi vojsku svoju, i imaše sa sobom trideset i dva cara, i konje i kola; i otišavši opkoli Samariju i stade je biti.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel into the city, and said to him, Thus says Ben-Hadad:
I posla poslanike k Ahavu caru Izrailjevu u grad,
3 Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, the goodliest, are mine.
I poruèi mu: ovako veli Ven-Adad: srebro tvoje i zlato tvoje moje je, tako i žene tvoje i tvoji lijepi sinovi moji su.
4 And the king of Israel answered and said, My lord, O king, according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I have.
A car Izrailjev odgovori i reèe: kao što si rekao, gospodaru moj care, ja sam tvoj i sve što imam.
5 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaks Ben-Hadad saying: I sent to thee indeed, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;
A poslanici opet doðoše i rekoše: ovako veli Ven-Adad: poslao sam k tebi i poruèio: srebro svoje i zlato svoje i žene svoje i sinove svoje da mi daš.
6 but to-morrow about this time I will send my servants to thee, and they shall search thy house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in thy sight, they shall put in their hand and take away.
Zato æu sjutra u ovo doba poslati sluge svoje k tebi da pregledaju kuæu tvoju i kuæe sluga tvojih, i što ti je god milo, oni æe uzeti i odnijeti.
7 And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this [man] seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.
Tada dozva car Izrailjev sve starješine zemaljske i reèe: gledajte i vidite kako ovaj traži zlo; jer posla k meni po mene i po sinove moje i po srebro moje i po zlato moje, i ja mu ne branih.
8 And all the elders and all the people said to him, Hearken not, nor consent.
A sve starješine i sav narod rekoše mu: ne slušaj ga i ne pristaj.
9 And he said to the messengers of Ben-Hadad, Tell my lord the king, All that thou didst send for to thy servant at the first I will do; but this thing I cannot do. And the messengers departed, and brought him word again.
I reèe poslanicima Ven-Adadovijem: kažite caru gospodaru mojemu: što si prvo poruèio sluzi svojemu sve æu uèiniti; ali ovo ne mogu uèiniti. Tako otidoše poslanici i odnesoše mu taj odgovor.
10 And Ben-Hadad sent to him and said, The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people that follow me!
A Ven-Adad posla k njemu i poruèi: tako da mi uèine bogovi i tako da dodadu! neæe biti dosta praha od Samarije da svemu narodu koji ide za mnom dopadne po jedna grst.
11 And the king of Israel answered and said, Tell [him], Let not him that girdeth on boast himself as he that putteth off!
A car Izrailjev odgovori i reèe: kažite: neka se ne hvali onaj koji se opasuje kao onaj koji se raspasuje.
12 And it came to pass when he heard this word, as he was drinking, he and the kings in the tents, that he said to his servants, Set yourselves. And they set themselves against the city.
A kad on to èu pijuæi s carevima pod šatorima, reèe slugama svojim: dižite se. I digoše se na grad.
13 And behold, a prophet drew near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, Thus saith Jehovah: Hast thou seen all this great multitude? behold, I will deliver it into thy hand this day; and thou shalt know that I am Jehovah.
Tada gle, pristupi jedan prorok k Ahavu caru Izrailjevu, i reèe: ovako veli Gospod: vidiš li sve ovo mnoštvo? evo, ja æu ti ga dati u ruke danas da poznaš da sam ja Gospod.
14 And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, Thus saith Jehovah: By the servants of the princes of the provinces. Then he said, Who shall begin the battle? And he said, Thou.
A Ahav reèe: preko koga? A on reèe: ovako veli Gospod: preko momaka knezova zemaljskih. Opet reèe: ko æe zametnuti boj? A on reèe: ti.
15 And he numbered the servants of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty-two; and after them he numbered all the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand.
Tada prebroji momke knezova zemaljskih, i bješe ih dvjesta i trideset i dva; poslije njih prebroji sav narod, sve sinove Izrailjeve, i bješe ih sedam tisuæa.
16 And they went out at noon; and Ben-Hadad drank himself drunk in the tents, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings that helped him.
I izidoše u podne; a Ven-Adad pijuæi opi se u šatorima s trideset i dva cara koji mu doðoše u pomoæ.
17 And the servants of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben-Hadad sent out, and they told him saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
I izidoše prvo momci knezova zemaljskih; a Ven-Adad posla, i javiše mu i rekoše: izidoše ljudi iz Samarije.
18 And he said, Whether they be come out for peace, take them alive; or whether they be come out for war, take them alive.
A on reèe: ako su izašli mira radi, pohvatajte ih žive; ako su izašli na boj, pohvatajte ih žive.
19 And these servants of the princes of the provinces came out of the city, and the army that followed them.
I izidoše iz grada momci knezova zemaljskih, i vojska za njima.
20 And they slew every one his man; and the Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them; and Ben-Hadad the king of Syria escaped on a horse with the horsemen.
I svaki ubi s kojim se sukobi, te Sirci pobjegoše a Izrailjci ih potjeraše. I Ven-Adad car Sirski pobježe na konju s konjicima.
21 And the king of Israel went out, and smote the horses and chariots, and slew the Syrians with a great slaughter.
I car Izrailjev izide i pobi konje i kola, i uèini velik pokolj meðu Sircima.
22 And the prophet drew near to the king of Israel, and said to him, Go, strengthen thyself, and understand, and see what thou shalt do; for at the return of the year the king of Syria will come up against thee.
Potom doðe prorok k caru Izrailjevu i reèe mu: idi, budi hrabar; i promisli i vidi šta æeš èiniti, jer æe do godine opet doæi car Sirski na te.
23 And the servants of the king of Syria said to him, Their gods are gods of the mountains; therefore they were stronger than we; but if we fight against them on the plateau, shall we not be stronger than they?
A caru Sirskom rekoše sluge njegove: njihovi su bogovi gorski bogovi, zato nas nadjaèaše; nego da se bijemo s njima u polju, zacijelo æemo ih nadjaèati.
24 And do this: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put governors in their stead;
Uèini dakle ovako: ukloni te careve s mjesta njihovijeh, i postavi vojvode mjesto njih.
25 and number thee an army, like the army that thou hast lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot; and we will fight against them on the plateau: shall we not be stronger than they? And he hearkened to their voice, and did so.
Pa skupi vojsku kakva je bila ona koja ti je izginula, i konje kakvi su bili oni konji, i kola kao ona kola; pa da se pobijemo s njima u polju; zacijelo æemo ih nadjaèati. I posluša ih, i uèini tako.
26 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, that Ben-Hadad numbered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.
A kad proðe godina, Ven-Adad prebroji Sirce, i poðe u Afek da vojuje na Izrailja.
27 And the children of Israel were numbered and victualled, and they went against them; and the children of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of goats; but the Syrians filled the land.
I sinovi Izrailjevi prebrojiše se, i ponesavši hrane izidoše pred njih. I stadoše u oko sinovi Izrailjevi prema njima, kao dva mala stada koza, a Sirci bijahu prekrilili zemlju.
28 And the man of God drew near, and spoke to the king of Israel and said, Thus saith Jehovah: Because the Syrians have said, Jehovah is a god of the mountains, but he is not a god of the valleys, I will give all this great multitude into thy hand, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.
Tada doðe èovjek Božji, i progovori caru Izrailjevu i reèe: ovako veli Gospod: što Sirci rekoše da je Gospod gorski Bog a nije Bog poljski, zato æu ti dati u ruke sve ovo mnoštvo veliko da znate da sam ja Gospod.
29 And they encamped one over against the other seven days; and it came to pass that on the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel smote of the Syrians a hundred thousand footmen in one day.
I stajahu u okolu jedni prema drugima sedam dana; a sedmoga dana pobiše se, i sinovi Izrailjevi pobiše Siraca sto tisuæa pješaka u jedan dan.
30 And the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men of them that were left. And Ben-Hadad fled, and came into the city, [from] chamber to chamber.
A ostali pobjegoše u grad Afek, i pade zid na dvadeset i sedam tisuæa ljudi koji bijahu ostali. I Ven-Adad pobjegav u grad uðe u najtajniju klijet.
31 And his servants said to him, Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings: let us, I pray thee, put sackcloth on our loins, and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel; perhaps he will save thy life.
A sluge mu rekoše: evo èuli smo da su carevi doma Izrailjeva milostivi carevi; da vežemo kostrijet oko sebe i da metnemo uzice sebi oko vratova, pa da izidemo pred cara Izrailjeva, da ako ostavi u životu dušu tvoju.
32 And they girded sackcloth on their loins, and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, Thy servant Ben-Hadad says, I pray thee, let me live. And he said, Is he yet alive? he is my brother.
I vezaše kostrijet oko sebe, i metnuše uzice sebi oko vratova, i doðoše k caru Izrailjevu i rekoše: sluga tvoj Ven-Adad veli: ostavi u životu dušu moju. A on reèe: je li još živ? brat mi je.
33 And the men took it as a good omen, and hastened to catch what came from him, and they said, Thy brother Ben-Hadad. ...And he said, Go, bring him. And Ben-Hadad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
A ljudi uzeše to za dobar znak, i odmah da bi ga uhvatili za rijeè rekoše: brat je tvoj Ven-Adad. A on reèe: idite, dovedite ga. Tada Ven-Adad izide k njemu; a on ga posadi na svoja kola.
34 And [Ben-Hadad] said to him, The cities that my father took from thy father I will restore; and thou shalt make streets for thyself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria. And I [said Ahab] will send thee away with this covenant. So he made a covenant with him, and sent him away.
Tada mu reèe Ven-Adad: gradove koje je uzeo otac moj tvome ocu, vratiæu, i naèini sebi ulice u Damasku kao što je otac moj uèinio u Samariji. A on odgovori: s tom vjerom otpustiæu te. I uèini vjeru s njim, i otpusti ga.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to another by the word of Jehovah, Smite me, I pray thee. But the man refused to smite him.
Tada jedan izmeðu sinova proroèkih reèe drugome po rijeèi Gospodnjoj: bij me. Ali ga onaj ne htje biti.
36 Then said he to him, Because thou hast not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, behold, when thou departest from me, the lion will slay thee. And when he had departed from him, the lion found him and slew him.
A on mu reèe: što ne posluša glasa Gospodnjega, zato, evo kad otideš od mene, lav æe te zaklati. I kad otide od njega, sukobi ga lav i zakla ga.
37 Then he found another man, and said, Smite me, I pray thee. And the man smote him violently, and wounded [him].
Opet našav drugoga reèe mu: bij me. A onaj ga izbi i izrani ga.
38 And the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with a sash over his eyes.
Tada otide prorok i stade na put kuda æe car proæi, i nagrdi se pepelom po licu.
39 And as the king passed by, he cried to the king and said, Thy servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a man turned aside, and brought a man to me and said, Keep this man; if by any means he be missing, then shall thy life be for his life, or thou shalt pay a talent of silver.
A kad car prolažaše, on viknu cara i reèe: tvoj sluga bijaše izašao u boj, a jedan došavši dovede mi èovjeka i reèe: èuvaj ovoga èovjeka; ako li ga nestane, biæe tvoja duša za njegovu dušu, ili æeš platiti talanat srebra.
40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. And the king of Israel said to him, So [is] thy judgment: thyself hast decided [it].
A kad tvoj sluga imaše posla tamo amo, njega nesta. Tada mu reèe car Izrailjev: to ti je sud, sam si otsudio.
41 Then he hastily took the sash away from his face; and the king of Israel discerned him, that he was of the prophets.
A on brže ubrisa pepeo s lica, i car Izrailjev pozna ga da je jedan od proroka.
42 And he said to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Because thou hast let go out of thy hand the man that I had devoted to destruction, thy life shall be for his life, and thy people for his people.
A on mu reèe: ovako veli Gospod: što si pustio iz ruku èovjeka kojega sam ja osudio da se istrijebi, duša æe tvoja biti za njegovu dušu i narod tvoj za njegov narod.
43 And the king of Israel went to his house sullen and vexed, and came to Samaria.
I otide car Izrailjev kuæi svojoj zlovoljan i ljutit, i doðe u Samariju.
