2 Kings 18

1 And it cometh to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, reigned hath Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah;

A treæe godine carovanja Osije sina Ilina nad Izrailjem zacari se Jezekija sin Ahazov nad Judom.

2 a son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi daughter of Zechariah.

Bijaše mu dvadeset i pet godina kad poèe carovati, i carova dvadeset i devet godina u Jerusalimu. Materi mu bješe ime Avija, kæi Zaharijina.

3 And he doth that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did,

I èinjaše što je pravo pred Gospodom sasvijem kao što je èinio David otac njegov.

4 he hath turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calleth it 'a piece of brass.'

On obori visine, i izlomi likove i isjeèe lugove, i razbi zmiju od mjedi, koju bješe naèinio Mojsije, jer joj do tada kaðahu sinovi Izrailjevi; i prozva je Neustan.

5 In Jehovah, God of Israel, he hath trusted, and after him there hath not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who were before him;

Uzdaše se u Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, i ne bi takoga izmeðu svijeh careva Judinijeh poslije njega ni prije njega.

6 and he cleaveth to Jehovah, he hath not turned aside from after Him, and keepeth His commands that Jehovah commanded Moses.

Jer prionu za Gospoda, ne otstupi od njega, nego drža zapovijesti koje zapovjedi Gospod Mojsiju.

7 And Jehovah hath been with him, in every place where he goeth out he acteth wisely, and he rebelleth against the king of Asshur, and hath not served him;

I Gospod bijaše s njim; kuda god iðaše napredovaše; i odmetnu se od cara Asirskoga, te mu ne bi sluga.

8 he hath smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced city.

On pobi Filisteje do Gaze i meðe njezine, od kule stražarske do grada ozidana.

9 And it cometh to pass, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah — it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel — come up hath Shalmaneser king of Asshur against Samaria, and layeth siege to it,

A èetvrte godine carovanja Jezekijina, a to je sedma godina carovanja Osije sina Ilina nad Izrailjem, podiže se Salmanasar car Asirski na Samariju, i opkoli je.

10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah — it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel — hath Samaria been captureth,

I poslije tri godine uze je; šeste godine carovanja Jezekijina, a devete godine carovanja Osijina nad Izrailjem, bi uzeta Samarija.

11 and the king of Asshur removeth Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] cities of the Medes,

I odvede car Asirski Izrailjce u Asiriju, i naseli ih u Alaju i u Avoru na vodi Gozanu i po gradovima Midskim.

12 because that they have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah their God, and transgress His covenant — all that He commanded Moses, servant of Jehovah — yea, they have not hearkened nor done [it].

Jer ne slušaše glasa Gospoda Boga svojega i prestupaše zavjet njegov, sve što im je zapovjedio Mojsije sluga Gospodnji, ne slušaše niti tvoriše.

13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah hath Sennacherib king of Asshur come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizeth them,

A èetrnaeste godine carovanja Jezekijina podiže se Senahirim car Asirski na sve tvrde gradove Judine, i uze ih.

14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sendeth unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, 'I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which thou puttest on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur layeth on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold,

Tada Jezekija car Judin posla u Lahis k caru Asirskom i poruèi mu: zgriješio sam; vrati se od mene, što god nametneš na me nosiæu. A car Asirski nametnu na Jezekiju cara Judina trista talanata srebra i trideset talanata zlata.

15 and Hezekiah giveth all the silver that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king;

I dade car Jezekija sve srebro što se naðe u domu Gospodnjem i u riznicama carskoga dvora.

16 at that time hath Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and giveth them to the king of Asshur.

U to vrijeme car Jezekija raskopa vrata na crkvi Gospodnjoj i pragove koje sam bješe okovao, i dade caru Asirskom.

17 And the king of Asshur sendeth Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [is] in the highway of the fuller's field.

Ali car Asirski posla Tartana i Ravsarisa i Ravsaka iz Lahisa k caru Jezekiji u Jerusalim s velikom vojskom; i oni se podigoše i doðoše u Jerusalim; i podigavši se i došavši stadoše kod jaza gornjega jezera, koji je pokraj puta u polju bjeljarevu.

18 And they call unto the king, and go out unto them doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer.

I stadoše vikati cara. Tada doðe k njima Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov pametar.

19 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What [is] this confidence in which thou hast confided?

I reèe im Ravsak: kažite caru Jezekiji: ovako kaže veliki car, car Asirski: kakva je to uzdanica, u koju se uzdaš?

20 Thou hast said: Only a word of the lips! counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom hast thou trusted that thou hast rebelled against me?

Ti veliš, ali su prazne rijeèi, da imaš svjeta i sile za rat. U što se dakle uzdaš, te si se odmetnuo od mene?

21 'Now, lo, thou hast trusted for thee on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it! — so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.

Gle, uzdaš se u Misir, u štap od trske slomljene, na koji ako se ko nasloni, uæi æe mu u ruku i probošæe je; taki je Faraon car Misirski svima koji se uzdaju u nj.

22 'And when ye say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do ye bow yourselves in Jerusalem?

Ako li mi reèete: uzdamo se u Gospoda Boga svojega; nije li to onaj èije je visine i oltare oborio Jezekija i zapovjedio Judi i Jerusalimu: pred ovijem oltarom klanjajte se u Jerusalimu.

23 'And, now, give a pledge for thee, I pray thee, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to give for thee riders on them.

Hajde, zateci se mojemu gospodaru caru Asirskom; i daæu ti dvije tisuæe konja, ako možeš dobaviti koji æe jahati na njima.

24 And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that thou dost trust for thee on Egypt for chariot, and for horsemen?

Kako æeš dakle odbiti i jednoga vojvodu izmeðu najmanjih sluga gospodara mojega? Ali se ti uzdaš u Misir za kola i konjike.

25 Now, without Jehovah have I come up against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and thou hast destroyed it.'

Svrh toga, eda li sam ja bez Gospoda došao na ovo mjesto da ga zatrem? Gospod mi je rekao: idi na tu zemlju, i zatri je.

26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah saith — and Shebna, and Joah — to the chief of the butlers, 'Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants [in] Aramaean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.'

Tada Elijakim sin Helkijin i Somna i Joah rekoše Ravsaku: govori slugama svojim Sirski, jer razumijemo, a nemoj nam govoriti Judejski da sluša narod na zidu.

27 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'For thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?'

A Ravsak im reèe: eda li me je gospodar moj poslao ka gospodaru tvojemu ili k tebi da kažem ove rijeèi? nije li k tijem ljudima, što sjede na zidu, da jedu svoju neèist i da piju svoju mokraæu s vama?

28 And the chief of the butlers standeth and calleth with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaketh and saith, 'Hear ye a word of the great king, the king of Asshur:

Tada stade Ravsak i povika iza glasa Judejski, i reèe govoreæi: èujte rijeè velikoga cara, cara Asirskoga.

29 thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand;

Ovako kaže car: nemojte da vas vara Jezekija; jer vas ne može izbaviti iz moje ruke.

30 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.

Nemojte da vas nagovori Jezekija da se pouzdate u Gospoda, govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti, i ovaj se grad neæe dati u ruke caru Asirskom.

31 'Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well,

Ne slušajte Jezekije; jer ovako kaže car Asirski: uèinite mir sa mnom, i hodite k meni, pa jedite svaki sa svoga èokota i svaki sa svoje smokve, i pijte svaki iz svojega studenca.

32 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive, and honey, and live, and die not; and do not hearken unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, Jehovah doth deliver us.

Dokle ne doðem i odnesem vas u zemlju kao što je vaša, u zemlju obilnu žitom i vinom, u zemlju obilnu hljebom i vinogradima, u zemlju obilnu maslinom i uljem i medom, pa æete živjeti i neæete izginuti. Ne slušajte Jezekije, jer vas vara govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti.

33 'Have the gods of the nations delivered at all each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?

Je li koji izmeðu bogova drugih naroda izbavio svoju zemlju iz ruke cara Asirskoga?

34 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?

Gdje su bogovi Ematski i Arfadski? gdje su bogovi Sefarvimski, Enski i Avski? jesu li izbavili Samariju iz mojih ruku?

35 Who [are they] among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah doth deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'

Koji su izmeðu svijeh bogova ovijeh zemalja izbavili zemlju svoju iz moje ruke? a Gospod æe izbaviti Jerusalim iz moje ruke?

36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, 'Do not answer him.'

Ali narod muèaše, i ne odgovoriše mu ni rijeèi, jer car bješe zapovjedio i rekao: ne odgovarajte mu.

37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.

Tada Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov, pametar, doðoše k Jezekiji razdrvši haljine, i kazaše mu rijeèi Ravsakove.
