2 Kings 18
1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.
A treæe godine carovanja Osije sina Ilina nad Izrailjem zacari se Jezekija sin Ahazov nad Judom.
2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Abi the daughter of Zechariah.
Bijaše mu dvadeset i pet godina kad poèe carovati, i carova dvadeset i devet godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Avija, kæi Zaharijina.
3 And he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that David his father had done.
I èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom sasvijem kao što je èinio David otac njegov.
4 He removed the high places, and broke the pillars, and cut down the Asherah; and he broke in pieces the brazen serpent that Moses had made; for unto those days the children of Israel did offer to it; and it was called Nehushtan.
On obori visine, i izlomi likove i isjeèe lugove, i razbi zmiju od mjedi, koju bješe naèinio Mojsije, jer joj do tada kaðahu sinovi Izrailjevi; i prozva je Neustan.
5 He trusted in the LORD, the God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor among them that were before him.
Uzdaše se u Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, i ne bi takoga izmeðu svijeh careva Judinijeh poslije njega ni prije njega.
6 For he cleaved to the LORD, he departed not from following Him, but kept His commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.
Jer prionu za Gospoda, ne otstupi od njega, nego drža zapovijesti koje zapovjedi Gospod Mojsiju.
7 And the LORD was with him: whithersoever he went forth he prospered; and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
I Gospod bijaše s njim; kuda god iðaše napredovaše; i odmetnu se od cara Asirskoga, te mu ne bi sluga.
8 He smote the Philistines unto Gaza and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
On pobi Filisteje do Gaze i meðe njezine, od kule stražarske do grada ozidana.
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
A èetvrte godine carovanja Jezekijina, a to je sedma godina carovanja Osije sina Ilina nad Izrailjem, podiže se Salmanasar car Asirski na Samariju, i opkoli je.
10 And at the end of three years they took it; even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, which was the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.
I poslije tri godine uze je; šeste godine carovanja Jezekijina, a devete godine carovanja Osijina nad Izrailjem, bi uzeta Samarija.
11 And the king of Assyria carried Israel away unto Assyria, and put them in Halah, and in Habor, on the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes;
I odvede car Asirski Izrailjce u Asiriju, i naseli ih u Alaju i u Avoru na vodi Gozanu i po gradovima Midskim.
12 because they hearkened not to the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed His covenant, even all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear it, nor do it.
Jer ne slušaše glasa Gospoda Boga svojega i prestupaše zavjet njegov, sve što im je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, ne slušaše niti tvoriše.
13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.
A èetrnaeste godine carovanja Jezekijina podiže se Senahirim car Asirski na sve tvrde gradove Judine, i uze ih.
14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying: 'I have offended; return from me; that which thou puttest on me will I bear.' And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
Tada Jezekija car Judin posla u Lahis k caru Asirskom i poruèi mu: zgriješio sam; vrati se od mene, što god nametneš na me nosiæu. A car Asirski nametnu na Jezekiju cara Judina trista talanata srebra i trideset talanata zlata.
15 And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house.
I dade car Jezekija sve srebro što se naðe u domu Gospodnjem i u riznicama carskoga dvora.
16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the door-posts which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
U to vrijeme car Jezekija raskopa vrata na crkvi Gospodnjoj i pragove koje sam bješe okovao, i dade caru Asirskom.
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great army unto Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fullers' field.
Ali car Asirski posla Tartana i Ravsarisa i Ravsaka iz Lahisa k caru Jezekiji u Jerusalim s velikom vojskom; i oni se podigoše i doðoše u Jerusalim; i podigavši se i došavši stadoše kod jaza gornjega jezera, koji je pokraj puta u polju bjeljarevu.
18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebnah the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.
I stadoše vikati cara. Tada doðe k njima Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov pametar.
19 And Rab-shakeh said unto them: 'Say ye now to Hezekiah: Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria: What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
I reèe im Ravsak: kažite caru Jezekiji: ovako kaže veliki car, car Asirski: kakva je to uzdanica, u koju se uzdaš?
20 Sayest thou that a mere word of the lips is counsel and strength for the war? Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me?
Ti veliš, ali su prazne rijeèi, da imaš svjeta i sile za rat. U što se dakle uzdaš, te si se odmetnuo od mene?
21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it; so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
Gle, uzdaš se u Misir, u štap od trske slomljene, na koji ako se ko nasloni, uæi æe mu u ruku i probošæe je; taki je Faraon car Misirski svima koji se uzdaju u nj.
22 But if ye say unto me: We trust in the LORD our God; is not that He, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and to Jerusalem: Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
Ako li mi reèete: uzdamo se u Gospoda Boga svojega; nije li to onaj èije je visine i oltare oborio Jezekija i zapovjedio Judi i Jerusalimu: pred ovijem oltarom klanjajte se u Jerusalimu.
23 Now therefore, I pray thee, make a wager with my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Hajde, zateci se mojemu gospodaru caru Asirskom; i daæu ti dvije tisuæe konja, ako možeš dobaviti koji æe jahati na njima.
24 How then canst thou turn away the face of one captain, even of the least of my masters servants? and yet thou puttest thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen!
Kako æeš dakle odbiti i jednoga vojvodu izmeðu najmanjih sluga gospodara mojega? Ali se ti uzdaš u Misir za kola i konjike.
25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said unto me: Go up against this land, destroy it.'
Svrh toga, eda li sam ja bez Gospoda došao na ovo mjesto da ga zatrem? Gospod mi je rekao: idi na tu zemlju, i zatri je.
26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh: 'Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Aramean language; for we understand it; and speak not with us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.'
Tada Elijakim sin Helkijin i Somna i Joah rekoše Ravsaku: govori slugama svojim Sirski, jer razumijemo, a nemoj nam govoriti Judejski da sluša narod na zidu.
27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them: 'Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit on the wall, to eat their own dung, and to drink their own water with you?'
A Ravsak im reèe: eda li me je gospodar moj poslao ka gospodaru tvojemu ili k tebi da kažem ove rijeèi? nije li k tijem ljudima, što sjede na zidu, da jedu svoju neèist i da piju svoju mokraæu s vama?
28 Then Rab-shakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spoke, saying: 'Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Tada stade Ravsak i povika iza glasa Judejski, i reèe govoreæi: èujte rijeè velikoga cara, cara Asirskoga.
29 Thus saith the king: Let not Hezekiah beguile you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand;
Ovako kaže car: nemojte da vas vara Jezekija; jer vas ne može izbaviti iz moje ruke.
30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying: The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Nemojte da vas nagovori Jezekija da se pouzdate u Gospoda, govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti, i ovaj se grad neæe dati u ruke caru Asirskom.
31 Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus saith the king of Assyria: Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig-tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern;
Ne slušajte Jezekije; jer ovako kaže car Asirski: uèinite mir sa mnom, i hodite k meni, pa jedite svaki sa svoga èokota i svaki sa svoje smokve, i pijte svaki iz svojega studenca.
32 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive-trees and of honey, that ye may live, and not die; and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying: The LORD will deliver us.
Dokle ne doðem i odnesem vas u zemlju kao što je vaša, u zemlju obilnu žitom i vinom, u zemlju obilnu hljebom i vinogradima, u zemlju obilnu maslinom i uljem i medom, pa æete živjeti i neæete izginuti. Ne slušajte Jezekije, jer vas vara govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti.
33 Hath any of the gods of the nations ever delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
Je li koji izmeðu bogova drugih naroda izbavio svoju zemlju iz ruke cara Asirskoga?
34 Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah? have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
Gdje su bogovi Ematski i Arfadski? gdje su bogovi Sefarvimski, Enski i Avski? jesu li izbavili Samariju iz mojih ruku?
35 Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'
Koji su izmeðu svijeh bogova ovijeh zemalja izbavili zemlju svoju iz moje ruke? a Gospod æe izbaviti Jerusalim iz moje ruke?
36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word; for the king's commandment was, saying: 'Answer him not.'
Ali narod muèaše, i ne odgovoriše mu ni rijeèi, jer car bješe zapovjedio i rekao: ne odgovarajte mu.
37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
Tada Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov, pametar, doðoše k Jezekiji razdrvši haljine, i kazaše mu rijeèi Ravsakove.
