< 2 Kings 13 >
1 In the three and twentieth year of Joas son of Ochozias king of Juda, Joachaz the son of Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria, seventeen years.
Dvadeset i treće godine kraljevanja judejskog kralja Joaša, sina Ahazjina, postade Joahaz, sin Jehuov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji. Kraljevao je sedamnaest godina.
2 And he did evil before the Lord, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, and he departed not from them.
On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim i poveo se za grijesima Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zavodio Izraela. Od njih nije odstupao.
3 And the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael the king of Syria, and into the hand of Benadad the son of Hazael all days.
Tada Jahve uskipje gnjevom na Izraela i predade ga u ruke aramejskog kralja Hazaela i u ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, za sve ono vrijeme.
4 But Joachaz besought the face of the Lord, and the Lord heard him: for he saw the distress of Israel, because the king of Syria had oppressed them:
Ali je Joahaz ublažio lice Jahvino i Jahve ga je uslišio, jer je vidio nevolju koju je aramejski kralj nanosio Izraelu.
5 And the Lord gave Israel a saviour, and they were delivered out of the hand of the king of Syria: and the children of Israel dwelt in their pavilions as yesterday and the day before.
Jahve je dao Izraelu izbavitelja koji ga je izbavio od ruke aramejske te su Izraelci živjeli u svojim šatorima kao i prije.
6 But yet they departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, who made Israel to sin, but walked in them: and there still remained a grove also in Samaria.
Ali nisu odstupali od grijeha kojim Jeroboam bijaše zaveo Izraela: ustrajali su u njemu, pa i ašere ostadoše u Samariji.
7 And Joachaz had no more left of the people than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen: for the king of Syria had slain them, and had brought them low as dust by thrashing in the barnfloor.
Jahve je ostavio Joahazu samo pedeset konjanika kao vojsku, deset bojnih kola i deset tisuća pješaka; kralj aramejski bijaše ih uništio i zgazio ih kao prah u vršidbi.
8 Rut the rest of the acts of Joachaz, and all that he did, and his valour, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Ostala povijest Joahazova, sve što je učinio i poduzimao, zar sve to nija zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
9 And Joachaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joas his son reigned in his stead.
Joahaz je počinuo sa svojim ocima i bi pokopan u Samariji, a njegov sin Joaš zakralji se mjesto njega.
10 In the seven and thirtieth year of Joas king of Juda, Joas the son of Joachaz reigned over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.
Trideset i sedme godine kraljevanja judejskoga kralja Joaša postade Joaš, sin Joahazov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji; kraljevao je šesnaest godina.
11 And he did that which is evil in the sight of the Lord: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, but he walked in them.
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim. Nije odstupao od grijeha Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zaveo Izraela. Za njim se poveo.
12 But the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, and his valour wherewith he fought against Amasias king of Juda, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Ostala povijest Joaševa, sve što je učinio, junaštva njegova, kako je ratovao s Amasjom, judejskim kraljem, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
13 And Joas slept with his fathers: and Jeroboam sat upon his throne. But Joas was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
Joaš je počinuo sa svojim ocima, a Jeroboam se popeo na njegovo prijestolje. Joaša pokopaše u Samariji uz izraelske kraljeve.
14 Now Eliseus was sick of the illness whereof he died: and Joas king of Israel went down to him, and wept before him, and said: O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel and the guider thereof.
Kad se Elizej razbolio od bolesti od koje mu valjade umrijeti, dođe mu izraelski kralj Joaš, rasplaka se nad njim i reče mu: “Oče moj, oče moj! Kola Izraelova i konjanici njegovi!”
15 And Eliseus said to him: Bring a bow and arrows. And when he had brought him a bow, and arrows,
Elizej mu reče: “Uzmi luk i strijele.” I on dohvati luk i strijele.
16 He said to the king of Israel: Put thy hand upon the bow. And when he had put his hand, Eliseus put his hands over the king’s hands,
Elizej će tada kralju: “Nategni luk!” I on ga nateže. Elizej stavi ruke na ruke kraljeve,
17 And said: Open the window to the east. And when he had opened it, Eliseus said: Shoot an arrow. And he shot. And Eliseus said: The arrow of the Lord’s deliverance, and the arrow of the deliverance from Syria: and thou shalt strike the Syrians in Aphec, till thou consume them.
zatim reče: “Otvori prozor prema istoku.” I on ga otvori, a nato će Elizej: “Odapni!” I on odape, a Elizej reče: “Pobjedonosna strijela Jahvina! Pobjednička strijela nad Aramejcima! Do nogu ćeš potući Aramejce kod Afeka.”
18 And he said: Take the arrows. And when he had taken them, he said to him: Strike with an arrow upon the ground. And he struck three times and stood still.
I nastavi: “Uzmi strijele!” On ih uze. Elizej tada reče kralju: “Udri o zemlju!” On udari tri puta i stade.
19 And the man of God was angry with him, and said: If thou hadst smitten five or six or seven times, thou hadst smitten Syria even to utter destruction: but now three times shalt thou smite it.
Tada se rasrdi na njega Božji čovjek i reče: “Pet ili šest puta trebalo je da udariš! Tada bi potpuno potukao Aramejce; ovako ćeš ih pobijediti samo tri puta.”
20 And Eliseus died, and they buried him. And the rovers from Moab came into the land the same year.
Elizej zatim umrije i pokopaše ga. A pljačkaške čete Moabaca napadale zemlju svake godine.
21 And some that were burying a man, saw the rovers, and cast the body into the sepulchre of Eliseus. And when it had touched the bones of Eliseus, the man came to life, and stood upon his feet.
Dogodilo se te su neki, sahranjujući čovjeka, opazili razbojnike: baciše mtrvaca u grob Elizejev i odoše. Mrtvac, dotakavši se Elizejevih kostiju, oživje i stade na noge.
22 Now Hazael king of Syria afflicted Israel all the days of Joachaz:
Aramejski kralj Hazael ugnjetavaše Izraelce svega vijeka Joahazova.
23 And the Lord had mercy on them, and returned to them because of his covenant, which he had made with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob: and he would not destroy them, nor utterly cast them away, unto this present time.
Ali im se Jahve smilova i ražali se nad njima. Pogleda na njih zbog svoga Saveza koji je sklopio s Abrahamom, Izakom i Jakovom. Nije ih htio uništiti i nije ih odbacio daleko od svoga lica do danas.
24 And Hazael king of Syria died, and Benadad his son reigned in his stead.
Hazael, aramejski kralj, umrije, a njegov sin Ben-Hadad zavlada namjesto njega.
25 Now Joas the son of Joachaz, took the cities out of the hand of Benadad, the son of Hazael, which he had taken out of the hand of Joachaz his father by war, three times did Joas beat him, and he restored the cities to Israel.
Tada Joaš, sin Joahazov, opet uze iz ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, gradove koje Hazael u ratu bijaše oteo njegovu ocu Joahazu. Joaš ga je tri puta potukao i vratio gradove Izraelove.
