2 Kings 3
1 And Jehoram son of Ahab has reigned over Israel, in Samaria, in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigns twelve years,
Joram, sin Ahabov, zakralji se nad Izraelom u Samariji osamnaeste godine Jošafatova kraljevanja u Judeji. I vladao je dvanaest godina.
2 and does evil in the eyes of YHWH, only not like his father, and like his mother, and he turns aside the standing-pillar of Ba‘al that his father made;
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim, ali ne kao njegov otac i mati, jer je uklonio Baalov stup što ga bijaše podigao njegov otac.
3 surely he has cleaved to the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin; he has not turned aside from it.
Ali je prianjao uz grijeh kojim je Jeroboam, sin Nebatov, zavodio Izraela; i nije odstupao od njega.
4 And Mesha king of Moab was a sheep-master, and he rendered to the king of Israel one hundred thousand lambs and one hundred thousand rams, [with] wool,
Meša, kralj moapski, bio je stočar i slao je izraelskom kralju u danak stotinu tisuća janjaca i vunu od stotine tisuća ovnova.
5 and it comes to pass at the death of Ahab, that the king of Moab transgresses against the king of Israel.
Ali kad je umro Ahab, pobuni se kralj moapski protiv izraelskog kralja.
6 And King Jehoram goes out from Samaria in that day, and inspects all Israel,
U to je baš vrijeme kralj Joram izišao iz Samarije i izvršio smotru svih Izraelaca.
7 and goes and sends to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has transgressed against me; do you go with me to Moab for battle?” And he says, “I go up, as I, so you; as my people, so your people; as my horses, so your horses.”
Zatim je poručio judejskom kralju Jošafatu: “Moapski se kralj pobunio protiv mene. Hoćeš li sa mnom u rat protiv Moabaca?” Judejski kralj odgovori: “Hoću! Ja kao ti, moj narod kao tvoj narod, moji konji kao i tvoji konji.”
8 And he says, “Where [is] this—the way we go up?” And he says, “The way of the wilderness of Edom.”
I doda: “Kojim ćemo putem?” A drugi mu odgovori: “Kroz Edomsku pustinju.”
9 And the king of Israel goes, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom, and they turn around the way seven days, and there has been no water for the camp, and for the livestock that [are] at their feet,
I tako krenu izraelski kralj s judejskim kraljem i s kraljem edomskim. Sedam su dana lutali, a nije bilo vode četama ni stoci koja je išla za njima.
10 and the king of Israel says, “Aah! For YHWH has called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”
Tada povika kralj izraelski: “Jao, Jahve je pozvao ova tri kralja da ih preda u ruke Moapcima!”
11 And Jehoshaphat says, “Is there not a prophet of YHWH here, and we seek YHWH by him?” And one of the servants of the king of Israel answers and says, “Here [is] Elisha son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.”
Ali Jošafat reče: “Nema li tu proroka Jahvina da se preko njega posavjetujemo s Jahvom?” Tada odgovori jedan između slugu izraelskoga kralja: “Ovdje je Elizej, sin Šafatov, koji je lijevao vodu na Ilijine ruke.”
12 And Jehoshaphat says, “The word of YHWH is with him”; and the king of Israel goes down to him, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom.
Jošafat reče: “U njega je riječ Božja.” I kralj izraelski, kralj judejski i kralj edomski odoše Elizeju.
13 And Elisha says to the king of Israel, “And what do I [have to do] with you? Go to the prophets of your father, and to the prophets of your mother”; and the king of Israel says to him, “No, for YHWH has called for these three kings to give them into the hand of Moab.”
A Elizej reče kralju izraelskom: “Što ja imam s tobom? Potraži proroke svoga oca i proroke svoje majke!” Izraelski kralj odgovori mu: “Ne! Jer Jahve je pozvao ova tri kralja da ih preda u ruke Moapcima.”
14 And Elisha says, “YHWH of Hosts lives, before whom I have stood; for unless I am lifting up the face of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I do not look to you, nor see you;
Elizej uzvrati: “Tako mi živoga Jahve Sebaota, komu služim, kad ne bih gledao na judejskog kralja Jošafata, ne bih ti obraćao pažnje niti bih te pogledao.
15 and now, bring a musician to me”; and it has been, at the playing of the musician, that the hand of YHWH is on him,
Sada mi dovedite svirača.” I dok je glazbenik svirao, siđe ruka Jahvina nada nj.
16 and he says, “Thus said YHWH: Make this valley ditches—ditches;
I on reče: “Ovako veli Jahve: 'Iskopajte u ovoj dolini mnogo jama.
17 for thus said YHWH: You do not see wind, nor do you see rain, and that valley is full of water, and you have drunk—you, and your livestock, and your beasts.
Jer ovako veli Jahve: nećete osjetiti vjetra niti ćete vidjeti dažda, a ova će se dolina napuniti vodom. I pit ćete vi, vaš marva i vaša stoka.'
18 And this has been light in the eyes of YHWH, and he has given Moab into your hand,
Ali to još nije ništa u očima Jahve: on će predati Moab u vaše ruke.
19 and you have struck every fortified city, and every choice city, and you cause every good tree to fall, and you stop all fountains of waters, and you mar every good portion with stones.”
Vi ćete zauzeti sve utvrđene gradove, posjeći sve plodno drveće, zatrpati sve izvore i opustošiti najbolja polja: kamenjem ćete ih zasijati.”
20 And it comes to pass in the morning, at the ascending of the [morning] present, that behold, waters are coming in from the way of Edom, and the land is filled with the waters,
I doista, ujutro, u vrijeme kad se prinosi žrtva, dođe voda od Edoma i preplavi svu okolinu.
21 and all of Moab has heard that the kings have come up to fight against them, and they are called together, from everyone girding on a girdle and upward, and they stand by the border.
Kad su Moapci čuli da su kraljevi došli s njima ratovati, pozvaše sve koji bijahu sposobni za oružje i postaviše ih na granicu.
22 And they rise early in the morning, and the sun has shone on the waters, and the Moabites see, from opposite [them], [that] the waters [are] red as blood,
Kad su ujutro ustali i kad je sunce granulo nad onom vodom, Moapcima se sa strane voda učini crvenom kao krv.
23 and say, “This [is] blood; the kings have been surely destroyed, and they each strike his neighbor; and now for spoil, Moab!”
I rekoše: “To je krv! Zacijelo su se kraljevi međusobno pobili i jedan drugoga pogubili. A sada: na plijen, Moapci!”
24 And they come to the camp of Israel, and Israel rises, and strikes the Moabites, and they flee from their face; and they enter into Moab, so as to strike Moab,
Ali kad su stigli do izraelskog tabora, digoše se Izraelci i potukoše Moapce, tako te ovi pobjegoše pred njima. A Izraelci pojuriše da dotuku Moapce.
25 and they break down the cities, and they each cast his stone [on] every good portion, and have filled it, and they stop every fountain of water, and they cause every good tree to fall—until one had left its stones in Kir-Haraseth, and the slingers go around and strike it.
Razorili su im gradove, bacali svaki po kamen na najbolje njive da ih zaspu, zatrpali izvore i posjekli sve plodno drveće. Konačno, ostao je samo grad Kir Harešet; praćari su ga opkolili i tukli ga.
26 And the king of Moab sees that the battle has been too strong for him, and he takes with him seven hundred men drawing sword, to cleave through to the king of Edom, and they have not been able,
Kada je moapski kralj vidio da neće izdržati bitku, uze sa sobom sedam stotina ljudi naoružanih mačevima, pokuša se probiti i doći do kralja edomskog, ali ne uspje.
27 and he takes his son, the firstborn who reigns in his stead, and causes him to ascend [as] a burnt-offering on the wall, and there is great wrath against Israel, and they journey from off him, and return to the land.
Tada uze svoga sina prvenca, koji ga imaše naslijediti, i prinese ga kao paljenicu na zidu. To se tako silno zgadilo Izraelcima te odoše od njih i vratiše se u svoju zemlju.
