2 Kings 7
1 Elisha said, “Hear Yahweh’s word. Yahweh says, ‘Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour will be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, in 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 Then the captain on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, “Behold, if Yahweh made windows in heaven, could this thing be?” He said, “Behold, you will see it with your eyes, but will not eat 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 Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate. They said to one another, “Why do we sit here until we die?
A bijahu na vratima èetiri èovjeka gubava, i rekoše jedan drugomu: što sjedimo ovdje da umremo?
4 If we say, ‘We will enter into the city,’ then the famine is in the city, and we will die there. If we sit still here, we also die. Now therefore come, and let’s surrender to the army of the Syrians. If they save us alive, we will live; and if they kill us, we will only 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 They rose up in the twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians. When they had come to the outermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, no man 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 army of the Syrians to hear the sound of chariots and the sound of horses, even the noise of a great army; and they said to one another, “Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to 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 Therefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, their horses, and their donkeys, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
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 these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank, then carried away silver, gold, and clothing and went and hid it. Then they came back, and entered into another tent and carried things from there also, and went 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 one another, “We aren’t doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we keep silent. If we wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us. Now therefore come, let’s go and tell the king’s household.”
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 So they came and called to the city gatekeepers; and they told them, “We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, not even a man’s voice, but the horses tied, and the donkeys tied, and the tents 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 Then the gatekeepers called out and told it to the king’s household within.
A on dozva ostale vratare, i javiše u dom carev.
12 The king arose in the night, and said to his servants, “I will now show you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we are hungry. Therefore they have gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, ‘When they come out of the city, we shall take them alive, and get into 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 servants answered, “Please let some people take five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city. Behold, they are like all the multitude of Israel who are left in it. Behold, they are like all the multitude of Israel who are consumed. Let’s send and see.”
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 Therefore they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent them out to the Syrian army, saying, “Go and see.”
I uzeše dva konja kolska, koje posla car za vojskom Sirskom, govoreæi: idite i vidite.
15 They went after them to the Jordan; and behold, all the path was full of garments and equipment which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. The messengers returned and told 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 The people went out and plundered the camp of the Syrians. So a seah of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to Yahweh’s word.
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 appointed the captain on whose hand he leaned to be in charge of the gate; and the people trampled over him in the gate, and he died as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to 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 It happened as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, “Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be tomorrow about this time in 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 and that captain answered the man of God, and said, “Now, behold, if Yahweh made windows in heaven, might such a thing be?” and he said, “Behold, you will see it with your eyes, but will not eat 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 It happened like that to him, for the people trampled over him in the gate, and he died.
I zbi mu se to, jer ga izgazi narod na vratima, te umrije.
