< 1 Kings 19 >
1 When Ahab got home, he told [his wife] Jezebel what Elijah had done. He told her that Elijah had killed all the prophets of Baal.
Tedy oznámil Achab Jezábel všecko to, což učinil Eliáš, a že naprosto všecky proroky její pobil mečem.
2 So Jezebel sent this message to Elijah: “By this time tomorrow I will have [killed] you, just like you [killed all those prophets of Baal]. If I do not do that, I hope the gods will kill me.”
A protož poslala Jezábel posla k Eliášovi, řkuci: Toto ať mi učiní bohové a toto přidadí, jestliže v tuto hodinu zítra neučiním tobě, jako ty kterému z nich.
3 When Elijah received [her message], he was afraid. So [taking his servant with him], he fled in order that he would not be killed. He went [far south] to Beersheba, in Judah. He left his servant there.
Což když zvěděl, vstana, odšel pro zachování života svého, a přišel do Bersabé, jenž jest v Judstvu, kdež nechal mládence svého.
4 Then he went by himself further [south] into the desert. He walked all day. He sat down under a broom tree and prayed that [Yahweh] would allow him to die. He said, “Yahweh, I’ve had enough. So allow me to die, because for me to live is no better than [being with] my ancestors [who have died].”
Sám pak šel předce po poušti cestou dne jednoho, a přišed, usadil se pod jedním jalovcem, a žádal sobě smrti a řekl: Jižť jest dosti, ó Hospodine, vezmi duši mou, nebť nejsem lepší otců svých.
5 Then he lay down under the broom tree and slept. But while he was sleeping, an angel touched him and [woke him up and] said to him, “Get up and eat some food!”
I lehl a usnul pod tím jalovcem. A aj, v touž chvíli anděl dotekl se ho a řekl jemu: Vstaň, pojez.
6 Elijah looked around and saw some bread which had been baked on hot stones, and he also saw a jar of water. So he ate some bread and drank some water and lay down [to sleep] again.
A když pohleděl vůkol, a aj, u hlavy jeho chléb na uhlí pečený a číše vody. I pojedl a napil se, a lehl zase.
7 Then the angel [who had been sent by] Yahweh came again and touched him, and said, “Get up and eat some [more] food, because you need [more strength] to go on a long journey.”
Opět vrátiv se anděl Hospodinův po druhé, dotekl se ho a řekl: Vstaň, pojez, nebo velmi dlouhou máš cestu před sebou.
8 So he got up and ate and drank some more, and because of doing that, he got enough strength to enable him to travel for forty days and nights to Sinai Mountain, the mountain [that was dedicated to] God.
A vstav, jedl a pil, a šel v síle pokrmu toho čtyřidceti dní a čtyřidceti nocí, až na horu Boží Oréb.
9 He went into a cave there and slept there that night. [The next morning, ] Yahweh said to him “Elijah, why are you here?”
Kdežto všed do jakési jeskyně, nocoval tam. A aj, řeč Hospodinova k němu, a řekl jemu: Co tu děláš, Eliáši?
10 Elijah replied, “I have zealously served you, Yahweh, God Almighty. But the Israeli people have broken the agreement that they made with you. They have torn down your altars, and they have killed all of your prophets. I am the only one whom they have not killed, and now they are trying to kill me, too. [So I am running away from them].”
Kterýž odpověděl: Velice jsem horlil pro Hospodina Boha zástupů; nebo opustili smlouvu tvou synové Izraelští, oltáře tvé zbořili a proroky tvé zmordovali mečem. I zůstal jsem já sám, teď pak hledají života mého, aby mi jej odjali.
11 Yahweh said to him, “Go out and stand in front of me on this mountain while I pass by.” [Suddenly] a strong windstorm struck the mountain. As a result, rocks were loosened from the mountainside. But Yahweh was not in the wind. Then there was an earthquake, but Yahweh was not in the earthquake.
Řekl Bůh: Vyjdi a stůj na hoře před Hospodinem. A aj, Hospodin šel tudy, a vítr veliký a silný, podvracující hory a rozrážející skály před Hospodinem, ale nebyl v tom větru Hospodin. Za tím pak větrem země třesení, ale nebyl v tom třesení Hospodin.
12 Then there was a fire, but Yahweh was not in the fire. Then there was a sound like someone whispering quietly.
A za třesením oheň, ale nebyl v ohni Hospodin. A za ohněm hlas tichý a temný.
13 When Elijah heard that, he wrapped his cloak around his face. He went out of the cave and stood at its entrance. And he heard Yahweh speaking to him, saying again, “Elijah, why are you here?”
Což když uslyšel Eliáš, zavinul tvář svou pláštěm svým, a vyšed, stál u dveří jeskyně, a aj, hlas k němu, řkoucí: Co tu děláš, Eliáši?
14 He replied again, “I have zealously served you, Yahweh, God Almighty. But the Israeli people have broken the agreement that they made with you. They have torn down your altars, and they have killed all of your prophets. I am the only one whom they have not killed, and now they are trying to kill me, too. [So I am running away from them].”
Kterýž odpověděl: Náramně horlil jsem pro Hospodina Boha zástupů; nebo opustili smlouvu tvou synové Izraelští, oltáře tvé zbořili, a proroky tvé pomordovali mečem. I zůstal jsem já sám, teď pak hledají života mého, aby mi jej odjali.
15 Then Yahweh told him, “Go back to the desert near Damascus. When you arrive there, anoint [with olive oil] a man named Hazael, [to appoint him] to be the king of Syria.
Ale Hospodin řekl jemu: Jdi, navrať se cestou svou k Damašské poušti, kdežto přijda, pomažeš Hazaele za krále nad Syrií.
16 Then anoint Jehu, the son of Nimshi, to be the king of Israel, and also anoint Elisha the son of Shaphat, from Abel-Meholah [town], to become my prophet after you are dead.
Jéhu také syna Namsi pomažeš za krále nad Izraelem, a Elizea syna Safatova z Abelmehula pomažeš za proroka místo sebe.
17 Hazael’s army [will kill many people, and] those who escape from [being killed by] his army will be killed by Jehu’s [army], and those who escape from [being killed by] Jehu’s army will be killed by Elisha.
I stane se, že toho, kdož by ušel meče Hazaelova, zamorduje Jéhu, a toho, kdož by ušel meče Jéhu, zamorduje Elizeus.
18 But [you need to know that] there are still 7,000 people in Israel who have never bowed to [worship] Baal or kissed his [idol].”
Zachovalť jsem pak v Izraeli sedm tisíců, jichžto všech kolena neskláněla se Bálovi, a jichžto všech ústa nelíbala ho.
19 So Elijah went [to Syria] and found Elisha as he was plowing a field with a team of oxen. There were eleven other men who were in front of him, plowing with teams of oxen in the same field. Elijah went to Elisha, and took off his own coat and put it on Elisha, [to show Elisha that he wanted him to take his place as a prophet. Then he started to walk away].
A tak odšed odtud, nalezl Elizea syna Safatova, an oře, a dvanáctero spřežení před ním, sám také byl při dvanáctém. A jda mimo něj Eliáš, uvrhl plášť svůj na něj.
20 Elisha left the oxen standing there and ran after Elijah, and said to him, “I will go with you, but first let me kiss my parents goodbye.” Elijah replied, “Okay, go home. But do not forget why I have [given my cloak] to you!”
Kterýž zanechav volů, běžel za Eliášem a řekl: Prosím, nechť políbím otce svého a matky své, i půjdu za tebou. Jemuž řekl: Jdi, vrať se zase, nebo vidíš, coť jsem učinil.
21 So Elisha went back [to his oxen]. He killed them [and cut them in pieces] and used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast the meat. He distributed the meat to the other people [in his town], and they all ate some. Then he went with Elijah and became his helper.
Navrátil se tedy od něho, a vzav pár volů, zabil je a dřívím z pluhu uvařil maso jejich, kteréž dal lidu, i jedli. A vstav, šel za Eliášem a přisluhoval jemu.
