2 Kings 13
1 After Joash had been ruling Judah for almost 23 years, Jehu’s son Jehoahaz became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 17 years.
Dvadeset i treće godine kraljevanja judejskog kralja Joaša, sina Ahazjina, postade Joahaz, sin Jehuov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji. Kraljevao je sedamnaest godina.
2 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil and committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin. He did not stop committing those sins.
On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim i poveo se za grijesima Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zavodio Izraela. Od njih nije odstupao.
3 So Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people, and he allowed the army of King Hazael of Syria and his son Ben-Hadad to defeat the Israelis many times.
Tada Jahve uskipje gnjevom na Izraela i predade ga u ruke aramejskog kralja Hazaela i u ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, za sve ono vrijeme.
4 Then Jehoahaz prayed to Yahweh [for help], and Yahweh heeded him, because he saw that the army of the king of Syria was oppressing the Israelis.
Ali je Joahaz ublažio lice Jahvino i Jahve ga je uslišio, jer je vidio nevolju koju je aramejski kralj nanosio Izraelu.
5 Yahweh sent a leader to Israel, who enabled them to be freed from being controlled by Syria. After that, the Israeli people lived peacefully as they had done previously.
Jahve je dao Izraelu izbavitelja koji ga je izbavio od ruke aramejske te su Izraelci živjeli u svojim šatorima kao i prije.
6 But they still continued to commit the same kind of sins that Jeroboam and his family had committed and which led the Israelis to [also] sin. And the statue of the goddess Asherah remained in Samaria.
Ali nisu odstupali od grijeha kojim Jeroboam bijaše zaveo Izraela: ustrajali su u njemu, pa i ašere ostadoše u Samariji.
7 Jehoahaz had only 50 men who rode on horses and ten chariots and 10,000 other soldiers, because the army of Syria had killed all the rest, trampling them like people walk on dirt.
Jahve je ostavio Joahazu samo pedeset konjanika kao vojsku, deset bojnih kola i deset tisuća pješaka; kralj aramejski bijaše ih uništio i zgazio ih kao prah u vršidbi.
8 [If you want to read about] [RHQ] everything else that Jehoahaz did, you can read about it in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
Ostala povijest Joahazova, sve što je učinio i poduzimao, zar sve to nija zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
9 Jehoahaz died [EUP] and was buried in Samaria. Then his son Jehoash became the king.
Joahaz je počinuo sa svojim ocima i bi pokopan u Samariji, a njegov sin Joaš zakralji se mjesto njega.
10 Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, started to rule in Israel after King Joash had been ruling in Judah for 23 years. Jehoash ruled in Samaria for 17 years.
Trideset i sedme godine kraljevanja judejskoga kralja Joaša postade Joaš, sin Joahazov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji; kraljevao je šesnaest godina.
11 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He refused to turn away from worshiping idols, which was the sin that [many years earlier King] Jeroboam had told the Israeli people to commit.
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim. Nije odstupao od grijeha Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zaveo Izraela. Za njim se poveo.
12 The other things that happened while Jehoash was king and all the things that he did are written in the book called ‘The Account of What the Kings of Israel Did’. In that account they wrote about Jehoash’s [army’s] victories, and their war with [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah.
Ostala povijest Joaševa, sve što je učinio, junaštva njegova, kako je ratovao s Amasjom, judejskim kraljem, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
13 When Jehoash died, he was buried in Samaria where the [other] kings of Israel were buried. Then his son Jeroboam became king.
Joaš je počinuo sa svojim ocima, a Jeroboam se popeo na njegovo prijestolje. Joaša pokopaše u Samariji uz izraelske kraljeve.
14 Elisha became very ill. Just before he died, King Jehoash went to Elisha and cried in front of him. [Saying the same words that Elisha had said when Elijah was taken to heaven], he said, “My father/master! My father/master! The chariots of us Israeli people and their drivers [are taking my master away]!”
Kad se Elizej razbolio od bolesti od koje mu valjade umrijeti, dođe mu izraelski kralj Joaš, rasplaka se nad njim i reče mu: “Oče moj, oče moj! Kola Izraelova i konjanici njegovi!”
15 Elisha said to him, “Bring to me a bow and some arrows!” So the king did that.
Elizej mu reče: “Uzmi luk i strijele.” I on dohvati luk i strijele.
16 Then Elisha told the king to put his hands on the bow [and prepare to shoot some arrows]. And then Elisha put his own hands on the king’s hands.
Elizej će tada kralju: “Nategni luk!” I on ga nateže. Elizej stavi ruke na ruke kraljeve,
17 Then Elisha told him, “[Have someone] open that window toward the east.” So they opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” So the king did. Then Elisha said, “That is the arrow that [indicates that your army] will defeat the Syrian army. Your army will completely defeat their [army] at Aphek [town].”
zatim reče: “Otvori prozor prema istoku.” I on ga otvori, a nato će Elizej: “Odapni!” I on odape, a Elizej reče: “Pobjedonosna strijela Jahvina! Pobjednička strijela nad Aramejcima! Do nogu ćeš potući Aramejce kod Afeka.”
18 Then Elisha said, “Pick up the other arrows and strike the ground with them!” So the king picked up the arrows and struck the ground three times.
I nastavi: “Uzmi strijele!” On ih uze. Elizej tada reče kralju: “Udri o zemlju!” On udari tri puta i stade.
19 But Elisha was angry with him. He exclaimed, “You should have struck the ground five or six times! If you had done that, your army would have defeated the Syrian [army] until they were completely wiped out! But now, [because you struck the ground only three times, ] your army will defeat them only three times!”
Tada se rasrdi na njega Božji čovjek i reče: “Pet ili šest puta trebalo je da udariš! Tada bi potpuno potukao Aramejce; ovako ćeš ih pobijediti samo tri puta.”
20 Then Elisha died and was buried. Groups of raiders from Moab came to Israel each year during (spring/the time when the cold season was ending).
Elizej zatim umrije i pokopaše ga. A pljačkaške čete Moabaca napadale zemlju svake godine.
21 One year, when some Israeli people were burying a man’s body, they saw a group of those raiders. [They were afraid, ] so quickly they threw that man’s body into the tomb where Elisha [had been buried, and they ran away]. But as soon as the man’s body touched Elisha’s bones, the dead man became alive again and jumped up!
Dogodilo se te su neki, sahranjujući čovjeka, opazili razbojnike: baciše mtrvaca u grob Elizejev i odoše. Mrtvac, dotakavši se Elizejevih kostiju, oživje i stade na noge.
22 King Hazael of Syria [sent soldiers to] oppress the Israeli people all during the years that Jehoahaz [ruled Judah].
Aramejski kralj Hazael ugnjetavaše Izraelce svega vijeka Joahazova.
23 But Yahweh was very kind [DOU] to the Israeli people. He helped them because of the agreement that he had made with [their ancestors] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He did not get rid of the Israelis, and he still has not rejected them.
Ali im se Jahve smilova i ražali se nad njima. Pogleda na njih zbog svoga Saveza koji je sklopio s Abrahamom, Izakom i Jakovom. Nije ih htio uništiti i nije ih odbacio daleko od svoga lica do danas.
24 When Hazael the king of Syria died, his son Ben-Hadad became the king.
Hazael, aramejski kralj, umrije, a njegov sin Ben-Hadad zavlada namjesto njega.
25 [The army of] King Jehoash of Israel defeated [the army of] King Ben-Hadad three times, and recaptured the cities that Ben-Hadad’s army had captured during the time that Jehoash’s father Jehoahaz was ruling Israel.
Tada Joaš, sin Joahazov, opet uze iz ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, gradove koje Hazael u ratu bijaše oteo njegovu ocu Joahazu. Joaš ga je tri puta potukao i vratio gradove Izraelove.
