2 Kings 2
1 When the LORD was about to take Elijah up by a whirlwind into heaven, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
A kad Gospod šæaše uzeti Iliju u vihoru na nebo, poðoše Ilija i Jelisije iz Galgala.
2 Elijah said to Elisha, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel.” Elisha said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel.
I reèe Ilija Jelisiju: ostani ti ovdje, jer mene Gospod šalje do Vetilja. Ali Jelisije reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. I doðoše u Vetilj.
3 The sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He said, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
Tada doðoše k Jelisiju sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Vetilju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas Gospod uzeti gospodara tvojega od tebe? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
4 Elijah said to him, “Elisha, please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to Jericho.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they came to Jericho.
Opet mu reèe Ilija: Jelisije, ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje u Jerihon. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. Tako doðoše u Jerihon.
5 The sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He answered, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
A sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Jerihonu pristupiše k Jelisiju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas uzeti Gospod od tebe gospodara tvojega? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
6 Elijah said to him, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to the Jordan.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” Then they both went on.
Opet mu reèe Ilija: ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje na Jordan. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako bila živa tvoja duša, neæu te ostaviti. Tako otidoše obojica.
7 Fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite them at a distance; and they both stood by the Jordan.
I pedeset ljudi izmeðu sinova proroèkih otidoše i stadoše prema njima izdaleka, a oni obojica ustaviše se kod Jordana.
8 Elijah took his mantle, and rolled it up, and struck the waters; and they were divided here and there, so that they both went over on dry ground.
I uze Ilija plašt svoj, i saviv ga udari njim po vodi, a ona se rastupi tamo i amo, te prijeðoše obojica suhim.
9 When they had gone over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask what I shall do for you, before I am taken from you.” Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be on me.”
A kad prijeðoše, reèe Ilija Jelisiju: išti šta hoæeš da ti uèinim, dokle se nijesam uzeo od tebe. A Jelisije reèe: da budu dva dijela duha tvojega u mene.
10 He said, “You have asked a hard thing. If you see me when I am taken from you, it will be so for you; but if not, it will not be so.”
A on mu reèe: zaiskao si tešku stvar; ali ako me vidiš kad se uzmem od tebe, biæe ti tako; ako li ne vidiš, neæe biti.
11 As they continued on and talked, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
I kad iðahu dalje razgovarajuæi se, gle, ognjena kola i ognjeni konji rastaviše ih, i Ilija otide u vihoru na nebo.
12 Elisha saw it, and he cried, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” He saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them in two pieces.
A Jelisije videæi to vikaše: oèe moj, oèe moj! kola Izrailjeva i konjici njegovi! I ne vidje ga više; potom uze haljine svoje i razdrije ih na dva komada.
13 He also took up Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
I podiže plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, i vrativ se stade na brijegu Jordanskom.
14 He took Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and struck the waters, and said, “Where is the LORD, the God of Elijah?” When he also had struck the waters, they were divided apart, and Elisha went over.
I uzev plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, udari po vodi i reèe: gdje je Gospod Bog Ilijin? A kad i on udari po vodi, rastupi se voda tamo i amo, i prijeðe Jelisije.
15 When the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho facing him saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” They came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
A kad s druge strane vidješe sinovi proroèki, koji bijahu u Jerihonu, rekoše: poèinu duh Ilijin na Jelisiju. I sretoše ga i pokloniše mu se do zemlje.
16 They said to him, “See now, there are with your servants fifty strong men. Please let them go and seek your master. Perhaps the LORD’s Spirit has taken him up, and put him on some mountain or into some valley.” He said, “Don’t send them.”
I rekoše mu: evo ima u sluga tvojih pedeset junaka, neka idu i traže tvojega gospodara, da ga ne bude uzeo duh Gospodnji i bacio ga na kakvo brdo ili u kakav do. A on reèe: ne šaljite.
17 When they urged him until he was ashamed, he said, “Send them.” Therefore they sent fifty men; and they searched for three days, but didn’t find him.
Ali oni navaljivahu na nj dokle mu se ne dosadi, te reèe: pošljite. I poslaše pedeset ljudi koji ga tražiše tri dana, ali ne naðoše.
18 They came back to him while he stayed at Jericho; and he said to them, “Didn’t I tell you, ‘Don’t go’?”
I vratiše se k njemu, a on bijaše u Jerihonu, pa im reèe: nijesam li vam govorio da ne idete?
19 The men of the city said to Elisha, “Behold, please, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the land is barren.”
Tada graðani rekoše Jelisiju: gle, dobro je živjeti u ovom gradu, kao što gospodar naš vidi; ali je voda zla i zemlja nerodna.
20 He said, “Bring me a new jar, and put salt in it.” Then they brought it to him.
A on im reèe: donesite mi nov kutao, i metnite u nj soli. I donesoše mu.
21 He went out to the spring of the waters, and threw salt into it, and said, “The LORD says, ‘I have healed these waters. There shall not be from there any more death or barren wasteland.’”
A on izide na izvor i baci u nj so, govoreæi: ovako veli Gospod: iscijelih ovu vodu, da ne bude više od nje smrti ni nerodnosti.
22 So the waters were healed to this day, according to Elisha’s word which he spoke.
I voda posta zdrava do današnjega dana po rijeèi Jelisijevoj, koju izreèe.
23 He went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up by the way, some youths came out of the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldy! Go up, you baldy!”
Potom otide odande u Vetilj; i kad iðaše putem, izidoše mala djeca iz grada i rugahu mu se govoreæi mu: hodi, æelo! hodi, æelo!
24 He looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the LORD’s name. Then two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of those youths.
A Jelisije obazre se i videæi ih prokle ih imenom Gospodnjim. Tada izidoše dvije medvjedice iz šume, i rastrgoše èetrdeset i dvoje djece.
25 He went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
Odande otide na goru Karmilsku, a odande se vrati u Samariju.
