2 Kings 7
1 Elisha replied, “Listen to the message from the Lord. This is what the Lord says: Around this time tomorrow a seah of the best flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel at the gate of Samaria.”
Tada reèe Jelisije: èujte rijeè Gospodnju: tako veli Gospod: sjutra æe u ovo doba biti mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal a dvije mjere jeèma za sikal na vratima Samarijskim.
2 The officer who was the king's assistant said to the man of God, “Look, even if the Lord opened windows in heaven what you say couldn't happen!” Elisha replied, “You'll see it with your own eyes, but you won't get to eat any of it.”
A vojvoda, na kojega se ruku car naslanjaše, odgovori èovjeku Božijemu i reèe: da Gospod naèini okna na nebu, bi li moglo to biti? A Jelisije reèe: eto, ti æeš vidjeti svojim oèima, ali ga neæeš jesti.
3 There happened to be four men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate. They said to each other, “Why are we sitting around here until we die?
A bijahu na vratima èetiri èovjeka gubava, i rekoše jedan drugomu: što sjedimo ovdje da umremo?
4 If we say, ‘Let's go into the city,’ we'll die because of the famine there; but if we go on sitting here, we'll die too. So come on, let's go to the camp of the Arameans and surrender to them. If they let us live, we'll live; if they kill us, we'll die.”
Da reèemo: da uðemo u grad, glad je u gradu, te æemo umrijeti ondje: a da ostanemo ovdje, opet æemo umrijeti; nego hajde da uskoèimo u oko Sirski: ako nas ostave u životu, ostaæemo u životu, ako li nas pogube, poginuæemo.
5 So they set off when it was getting dark and went to the camp of the Arameans. But when they arrived at the edge of the camp, nobody was there!
I tako ustavši u sumrak poðoše u oko Sirski, i doðoše do kraja okola Sirskoga, i gle, ne bješe nikoga.
6 For the Lord had made the Arameans hear the sound of chariots, horses, and a large army approaching, so they said to each other, “The king of Israel has hired the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to come and attack us.”
Jer Gospod uèini te se u okolu Sirskom èu lupa kola i konja i velike vojske, te rekoše jedan drugomu: eto car je Izrailjev najmio na nas careve Hetejske i careve Misirske da udare na nas.
7 So they jumped up and ran away into the night, leaving behind their tents, their horses, and their donkeys. In fact the camp was left just as it was when they ran for their lives.
Te se podigoše i pobjegoše po mraku ostavivši šatore svoje i konje svoje i magarce svoje i oko kao što je bio, i pobjegoše radi duša svojih.
8 When the lepers got to the edge of the camp, they went into a tent and ate and drank. Then they took the silver, gold, and clothes, and hid them. After that they went back to another tent, took some things from there, and hid them.
Pa kad doðoše gubavci na kraj okola, uðoše u jedan šator, i najedoše se i napiše se, i pokupiše iz njega srebro i zlato i haljine, i otidoše te sakriše. Pa se vratiše i uðoše u drugi šator, pa pokupiše i iz njega, i otidoše te sakriše.
9 Then they said to each other, “It's not right what we're doing. This is a day of good news, and if we keep quiet about it and wait until it gets light, we're sure to be punished. So let's go right away and let them know at the king's palace.”
Tada rekoše meðu sobom: ne radimo dobro; ovaj je dan dan dobrijeh glasova; a mi šutimo. Ako ušèekamo do zore, stignuæe nas bezakonje. Zato sada hajde da idemo i javimo domu carevu.
10 They went and called to the gatekeepers of the city, “We went over to the Aramean camp and no one was there, not a sound of anybody! There were just horses and donkeys tied up, and the tents just as they were.”
I tako došavši dozvaše vratara gradskoga i kazaše mu govoreæi: idosmo u oko Sirski, i gle, nema nikoga, ni glasa èovjeèijega; nego konji povezani i magarci povezani, i šatori kako su bili.
11 The gatekeepers shouted out the news, and reports reached the royal palace.
A on dozva ostale vratare, i javiše u dom carev.
12 The king got up in the night and said to his officers, “Let me tell you the trick the Arameans are trying to play on us. They know we're starving, so they have left the camp and hidden in the field, thinking, ‘When they leave the city, we'll take them alive and be able to enter the city.’”
A car ustavši po noæi reèe slugama svojim: kazaæu vam sada šta su nam uèinili Sirci. Znadu da gladujemo, zato otidoše iz okola da se sakriju u polju govoreæi: kad izidu iz grada, pohvataæemo ih žive i uæi æemo u grad.
13 One of his officers suggested, “Have some men take five of the remaining horses in the city. What happens to them will be the same as that of all the Israelites left here, All the Israelites here are doomed. Let's send them to find out what's going on.”
A jedan od sluga njegovijeh odgovori i reèe: da uzmemo pet ostalijeh konja što još ima u gradu; gle, to je sve što je ostalo od mnoštva konja Izrailjskih; to je sve što nije izginulo od mnoštva konja Izrailjskih; da pošljemo da vidimo.
14 So they got two chariots ready with their horses, and the king sent them out to the Aramean camp, telling them “Go and take a look.”
I uzeše dva konja kolska, koje posla car za vojskom Sirskom, govoreæi: idite i vidite.
15 They went after them as far as the Jordan, and the whole way was full of clothing and equipment the Arameans had thrown aside as they ran away. The messengers returned and reported to the king.
I otidoše za njima do Jordana, i gle, po svemu putu bijaše puno haljina i sudova, koje pobacaše Sirci u hitnji. Tada se vratiše poslanici i javiše caru.
16 Then the people went out and looted the camp of the Arameans. So a seah of the best flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, just as the Lord had predicted.
Tada izide narod i razgrabi oko Sirski; i bješe mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal, i dvije mjere jeèma za sikal, po rijeèi Gospodnjoj.
17 The king had put the officer who was his assistant in charge of the gate. In their rush the people trampled him in the gateway and he died, just as the man of God had said when the king visited him.
I car postavi na vrata onoga vojvodu, na kojega se ruku naslanjaše, a narod ga izgazi na vratima, te umrije, po rijeèi èovjeka Božijega, koju reèe kad car k njemu doðe.
18 What the man of God had told the king also came true when he said, “Around this time tomorrow a seah of the best flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel at the gate of Samaria.”
Jer kad èovjek Božji reèe caru: dvije mjere jeèma za sikal i mjera bijeloga brašna za sikal biæe sjutra u ovo doba na vratima Samarijskim,
19 Also the officer who was the king's assistant had said to the man of God, “Look, even if the Lord opened windows in heaven what you say couldn't happen!” Elisha had replied, “You'll see it with your own eyes, but you won't get to eat any of it.”
A onaj vojvoda odgovori èovjeku Božijemu govoreæi: da Gospod naèini okna na nebu, bi li moglo biti što kažeš? A Jelisije reèe: ti æeš vidjeti svojim oèima, ali ga neæeš jesti.
20 This is what happened to him. The people trampled him in the gateway and he died.
I zbi mu se to, jer ga izgazi narod na vratima, te umrije.
