< 2 Kings 2 >
1 And it came to pass when Jehovah would take up Elijah into the heavens by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
A kad Gospod šæaše uzeti Iliju u vihoru na nebo, poðoše Ilija i Jelisije iz Galgala.
2 And Elijah said to Elisha, Abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! So they went down to Bethel.
I reèe Ilija Jelisiju: ostani ti ovdje, jer mene Gospod šalje do Vetilja. Ali Jelisije reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. I doðoše u Vetilj.
3 And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Dost thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from over thy head to-day? And he said, I also know it: be silent!
Tada doðoše k Jelisiju sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Vetilju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas Gospod uzeti gospodara tvojega od tebe? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
4 And Elijah said to him, Elisha, abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to Jericho. And he said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And they came to Jericho.
Opet mu reèe Ilija: Jelisije, ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje u Jerihon. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. Tako doðoše u Jerihon.
5 And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho drew near to Elisha and said to him, Dost thou know that Jehovah will take away thy master from over thy head to-day? And he said, I also know it: be silent!
A sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Jerihonu pristupiše k Jelisiju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas uzeti Gospod od tebe gospodara tvojega? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
6 And Elijah said to him, Abide here, I pray thee; for Jehovah has sent me to the Jordan. And he said, As Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee! And they two went on.
Opet mu reèe Ilija: ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje na Jordan. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako bila živa tvoja duša, neæu te ostaviti. Tako otidoše obojica.
7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite afar off; and they two stood by the Jordan.
I pedeset ljudi izmeðu sinova proroèkih otidoše i stadoše prema njima izdaleka, a oni obojica ustaviše se kod Jordana.
8 And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither; and they two went over on dry ground.
I uze Ilija plašt svoj, i saviv ga udari njim po vodi, a ona se rastupi tamo i amo, te prijeðoše obojica suhim.
9 And it came to pass when they had gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I am taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
A kad prijeðoše, reèe Ilija Jelisiju: išti šta hoæeš da ti uèinim, dokle se nijesam uzeo od tebe. A Jelisije reèe: da budu dva dijela duha tvojega u mene.
10 And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so to thee; but if not, it shall not be [so].
A on mu reèe: zaiskao si tešku stvar; ali ako me vidiš kad se uzmem od tebe, biæe ti tako; ako li ne vidiš, neæe biti.
11 And it came to pass as they went on, and talked, that behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire; and they parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into the heavens.
I kad iðahu dalje razgovarajuæi se, gle, ognjena kola i ognjeni konji rastaviše ih, i Ilija otide u vihoru na nebo.
12 And Elisha saw [it], and he cried, My father, my father! the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof! And he saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own garments and rent them in two pieces.
A Jelisije videæi to vikaše: oèe moj, oèe moj! kola Izrailjeva i konjici njegovi! I ne vidje ga više; potom uze haljine svoje i razdrije ih na dva komada.
13 And he took up the mantle of Elijah which fell from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan;
I podiže plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, i vrativ se stade na brijegu Jordanskom.
14 and he took the mantle of Elijah which had fallen from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is Jehovah, the God of Elijah? He also smote the waters, and they parted hither and thither, and Elisha went over.
I uzev plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, udari po vodi i reèe: gdje je Gospod Bog Ilijin? A kad i on udari po vodi, rastupi se voda tamo i amo, i prijeðe Jelisije.
15 And the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho on the opposite side saw him, and they said, The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him,
A kad s druge strane vidješe sinovi proroèki, koji bijahu u Jerihonu, rekoše: poèinu duh Ilijin na Jelisiju. I sretoše ga i pokloniše mu se do zemlje.
16 and said to him, Behold now, there are with thy servants fifty valiant men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master, lest perhaps the Spirit of Jehovah have taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some ravine. And he said, Ye shall not send.
I rekoše mu: evo ima u sluga tvojih pedeset junaka, neka idu i traže tvojega gospodara, da ga ne bude uzeo duh Gospodnji i bacio ga na kakvo brdo ili u kakav do. A on reèe: ne šaljite.
17 And they pressed him till he was ashamed, and he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men, and they sought three days, but did not find him.
Ali oni navaljivahu na nj dokle mu se ne dosadi, te reèe: pošljite. I poslaše pedeset ljudi koji ga tražiše tri dana, ali ne naðoše.
18 And they came again to him (now he was staying at Jericho); and he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?
I vratiše se k njemu, a on bijaše u Jerihonu, pa im reèe: nijesam li vam govorio da ne idete?
19 And the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold now, the situation of the city is good, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the land is barren.
Tada graðani rekoše Jelisiju: gle, dobro je živjeti u ovom gradu, kao što gospodar naš vidi; ali je voda zla i zemlja nerodna.
20 And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt in it. And they brought it to him.
A on im reèe: donesite mi nov kutao, i metnite u nj soli. I donesoše mu.
21 And he went forth to the source of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith Jehovah: I have healed these waters: there shall not be from thence any more death or barrenness.
A on izide na izvor i baci u nj so, govoreæi: ovako veli Gospod: iscijelih ovu vodu, da ne bude više od nje smrti ni nerodnosti.
22 And the waters were healed to this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spoke.
I voda posta zdrava do današnjega dana po rijeèi Jelisijevoj, koju izreèe.
23 And he went up from thence to Bethel, and as he went up by the way, there came forth little boys out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, bald head; go up, bald head!
Potom otide odande u Vetilj; i kad iðaše putem, izidoše mala djeca iz grada i rugahu mu se govoreæi mu: hodi, æelo! hodi, æelo!
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of Jehovah. And there came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and tore forty-two children of them.
A Jelisije obazre se i videæi ih prokle ih imenom Gospodnjim. Tada izidoše dvije medvjedice iz šume, i rastrgoše èetrdeset i dvoje djece.
25 And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
Odande otide na goru Karmilsku, a odande se vrati u Samariju.
