2 Kings 19
1 When Hezekiah heard it, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and went into the Lord's Temple.
A kad to èu car Jezekija, razdrije haljine svoje i veza oko sebe kostrijet, pa otide u dom Gospodnji.
2 He sent Eliakim the palace manager, Shebna, the scribe, and the leading priests, all wearing sackcloth, to see the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz.
I posla Elijakima, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somnu pisara i najstarije sveštenike obuèene u kostrijet k Isaiji proroku sinu Amosovu.
3 They told him, “This is what Hezekiah says: Today is a day of trouble, punishment. It's like when babies arrive at the entrance to the birth canal but there's no strength to deliver them.
I rekoše mu: ovako veli Jezekija: ovo je dan nevolje i kara i ruga; jer prispješe djeca do poroðaja, a nema snage da se rode.
4 Maybe the Lord your God, hearing the message the army commander delivered on behalf of his master, the king of Assyria—a message sent to insult the living God—will punish him for his words. Please say a prayer for the remnant of us who still survive.”
Da ako je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj sve što reèe Ravsak, kojega posla car Asirski gospodar njegov da ruži Boga živoga i da ga vrijeða rijeèima, koje je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj; pomoli se za ostatak koji se nalazi.
5 After Hezekiah's officials delivered his message to Isaiah,
I doðoše k Isaiji sluge cara Jezekije.
6 Isaiah replied to them, “Tell your master, This is what the Lord says: Don't be frightened by the words that you have heard, the words used by the servants of the king of Assyria to blaspheme me.
I reèe im Isaija: ovako recite gospodaru svojemu: ovako veli Gospod: ne plaši se od rijeèi koje si èuo, kojima huliše na me sluge cara Asirskoga.
7 Look, I'm going to scare him—he'll hear a rumor, and he'll have to return to his own country. When he's there I'll have him killed by the sword.”
Evo, ja æu pustiti na nj duh, te æe èuti glas i vratiti se u svoju zemlju, i uèiniæu da pogine od maèa u svojoj zemlji.
8 The Assyrian army commander left and went back to join the king of Assyria, having heard the king had left Lachish and was attacking Libnah.
I tako vrativši se Ravsak naðe cara Asirskoga gdje bije Livnu, jer bješe èuo da je otišao od Lahisa.
9 Sennacherib had received a message about Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, that said, “Watch out! He has set out to attack you.” So Sennacherib sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying,
A on èu za Tiraku cara Huskoga gdje kazaše: evo ide da se bije s tobom. Zato opet posla poslanike k Jezekiji govoreæi:
10 “Tell Hezekiah, king of Judah: ‘Don't let your God, the one you're trusting in, fool you by saying that Jerusalem won't fall into the hands of the king of Assyria.
Ovako recite Jezekiji caru Judinu: nemoj da te vara Bog tvoj, u kojega se uzdaš govoreæi: neæe se dati Jerusalim u ruke caru Asirskom.
11 Look! You've heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the countries they've invaded— they destroyed them completely! Do you really think you'll be saved?
Eto èuo si šta su uèinili carevi Asirski svijem zemljama potrvši ih sasvijem; a ti li æeš se izbaviti?
12 Did the gods of the nations my forefathers destroyed save them—the gods of Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who lived in Telassar?
Jesu li narode koje satrše oci moji izbavili bogovi njihovi, Gosance, Harance, Resefe i sinove Edenove, koji bijahu u Telasaru?
13 Where today is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?”
Gdje je car Ematski i car Arfadski i car od grada Sefarvima, od Ene i Ave?
14 Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it. Then he went up to the Lord's Temple and opened it out before the Lord.
A kad Jezekija primi knjigu iz ruku poslanika i proèita je, otide u dom Gospodnji, i razvi je Jezekija pred Gospodom.
15 Hezekiah prayed to the Lord, saying, “Lord, God of Israel, you who live above the cherubim, you alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth, you are Creator of heaven and earth.
I pomoli se Jezekija Gospodu govoreæi: Gospode Bože Izrailjev, koji sjediš na heruvimima, ti si sam Bog svijem carstvima na zemlji, ti si stvorio nebo i zemlju,
16 Please listen with your ears, Lord, and hear; open your eyes, Lord, and see. Listen to the message that Sennacherib has sent to insult the living God.
Prigni, Gospode, uho svoje i èuj; otvori, Gospode, oèi svoje i vidi; èuj rijeèi Senahirima, koji posla da ruži Boga živoga.
17 Yes, it's true, Lord, that the Assyrian kings have destroyed these nations and their lands.
Istina je, Gospode, opustošili su carevi Asirski one narode i zemlje njihove;
18 They have thrown their gods into the fire because they are not really gods—they are just the work of human hands, made of wood and stone so they could destroy them.
I pobacali su bogove njihove u oganj, jer ne bijahu bogovi, nego djelo ruku èovjeèijih, drvo i kamen; zato ih potrše.
19 Now, Lord our God, please save us from him, in order that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that only you, Lord, are God.”
I zato, Gospode Bože naš, izbavi nas iz ruku njegovijeh, da poznadu sva carstva na zemlji da si ti Gospode sam Bog.
20 Then Isaiah, son of Amoz, sent a message to Hezekiah, saying, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I have heard your prayer about Sennacherib, king of Assyria.
Tada posla Isaija sin Amosov k Jezekiji, i poruèi mu: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uslišio sam za što si mi se molio radi Senahirima cara Asirskoga.
21 This is the word the Lord condemning him: The virgin daughter of Zion scorns you and mocks you; the daughter of Jerusalem shakes her head as you run away.
Ovo je rijeè koju izreèe Gospod za nj: ruga ti se i potsmijeva ti se djevojka, kæi Sionska, za tobom maše glavom kæi Jerusalimska.
22 Who have you been insulting and ridiculing? Who did you raise your voice against? Who did you look at with so proud eyes? It was against the Holy One of Israel!
Koga si ružio i hulio? i na koga si podigao glas? i podigao u vis oèi svoje? Na sveca Izrailjeva.
23 By your servants you have mocked the Lord. You said: ‘With my many chariots I have ascended to the high mountains, to the farthest peaks of Lebanon. I have chopped down its tallest cedars, the best of its cypress trees. I have reached its most distant outposts, its deepest forests.
Preko poslanika svojih ružio si Gospoda i rekao si: s mnoštvom kola svojih izidoh na visoke gore, na strane Livanske, i posjeæi æu visoke kedre njegove i lijepe jele njegove, i uæi æu u krajnji stan njegov, u šumu njegova Karmila.
24 I have dug wells and drunk water in foreign lands. With the soles of my feet I dried up all the rivers in Egypt.’”
Ja sam kopao i pio vodu tuðu, i isušio sam stopama svojim sve potoke gradovima.
25 The Lord replies, “Haven't you heard? I decided it long ago; I planned it in the olden days. Now I am making sure it happens—that you are to knock down fortified towns into piles of rubble.
Nijesi li èuo da ja to odavna èinim i od iskona da sam tako uredio? sada puštam to, da prevratiš tvrde gradove u puste gomile.
26 Their people, powerless, are terrified and humiliated. They're like plants in a field, like soft green shoots, like grass that sprouts on rooftop—scorched before it can even grow.
Zato koji u njima žive iznemogoše, uplašiše se i smetoše se, postaše kao trava poljska, kao zelena travica, kao trava na krovovima, koja se suši prije nego sazri.
27 But I know you very well—where you live, when you come in, when you leave, and your furious anger against me.
Znam sjeðenje tvoje, i polaženje tvoje i dolaženje tvoje znam, i kako bjesniš na me.
28 Because of your furious anger against me, and because I know how you disrespect me, I'm going to put my hook in your nose and my bit in your mouth, and I will force you to return the same way you came.”
Jer bjesniš na me, i tvoja obijest doðe do mojih ušiju; zato æu metnuti brnjicu svoju na nozdrve tvoje i uzdu svoju u gubicu tvoju, pa æu te odvesti natrag putem kojim si došao.
29 “Hezekiah, this will be a sign to prove this is true: This year you'll eat what grows by itself. The second year you'll eat what grows from that. But in the third year you'll sow and reap, you'll plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
A tebi ovo neka bude znak: ješæete ove godine što samo od sebe rodi, i druge godine što opet samo od sebe rodi; a treæe godine sijte i žanjite i sadite vinograde i jedite rod s njih.
30 The remnant that's left of Judah will revive again, sending roots below and bearing fruit above.
Jer ostatak doma Judina, što ostane, opet æe pustiti žile ozdo i roditi ozgo.
31 For a remnant will come out of Jerusalem, and survivors will come from Mount Zion. The intense determination of the Lord will make sure this happens.
Jer æe iz Jerusalima izaæi ostatak, i iz gore Siona, koji se saèuvaju. Revnost Gospoda nad vojskama uèiniæe to.
32 This is what the Lord says about the king of Assyria: He shall not enter this city or shoot an arrow at it. He shall not advance towards it with a shield, or build a siege ramp against it.
Zato ovako veli Gospod za cara Asirskoga: neæe uæi u ovaj grad niti æe baciti amo strijele, neæe se primaæi ka njemu sa štitom, niti æe iskopati opkopa oko njega.
33 He shall return the same way he came, and he shall not enter this city, says the Lord.
Vratiæe se putem kojim je došao, a u grad ovaj neæe uæi, veli Gospod.
34 I will defend this city and save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David.”
Jer æu braniti taj grad, i saèuvaæu ga sebe radi i radi Davida sluge svojega.
35 That night the angel of the Lord went to the Assyrian camp and killed 185,000. When the survivors woke up in the morning, they were surrounded by dead bodies.
I istu noæ anðeo Gospodnji izide i pobi u okolu Asirskom sto i osamdeset i pet tisuæa; i kad ustaše ujutru, a to sve sami mrtvaci.
36 Sennacherib, king of Assyria, gave up and left. He returned home to Nineveh and stayed there.
Te se podiže Senahirim car Asirski, i otide, i vrativši se osta u Nineviji.
37 While he was worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch, his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer killed him with the sword and then ran away to the land of Ararat. His son Esar-haddon succeeded him as king.
I kad se klanjaše u domu Nisroka boga svojega, Adrameleh i Sarasar sinovi njegovi ubiše ga maèem, a sami pobjegoše u zemlju Araratsku, i na njegovo se mjesto zacari Esaradon sin njegov.
