2 Kings 19
1 And it cometh to pass, at king Hezekiah's hearing, that he rendeth his garments, and covereth himself with sackcloth, and entereth the house of Jehovah,
Pripetilo se je, ko je kralj Ezekíja to slišal, da je pretrgal svoja oblačila, se pokril z vrečevino in odšel v Gospodovo hišo.
2 and sendeth Eliakim, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covering themselves with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet, son of Amoz,
Poslal je Eljakíma, ki je bil nad družino, pisarja Šebná in starešine izmed duhovnikov, pokrite z vrečevino, k preroku Izaiju, Amócovemu sinu.
3 and they say unto him, 'Thus said Hezekiah — A day of distress, and rebuke, and despising [is] this day; for come have sons unto the birth, and power there is not to bring forth.
Rekli so mu: »Tako govori Ezekíja: ›Ta dan je dan nevšečnosti, grajanja in bogokletja, kajti otroci so prišli do rojstva, pa ni moči, da se rodijo.
4 'It may be Jehovah thy God doth hear all the words of the chief of the butlers with which the king of Asshur his lord hath sent him to reproach the living God, and hath decided concerning the words that Jehovah thy God hath heard, and thou hast lifted up prayer for the remnant that is found.'
Morda bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, slišal vse besede Rabšakéja, ki ga je njegov gospodar, asirski kralj, poslal, da graja živega Boga in bo grajal besede, ki jih je slišal Gospod, tvoj Bog. Zatorej dvigni svojo molitev za preostanek, ki je ostal.‹«
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah come in unto Isaiah,
Tako so služabniki kralja Ezekíja prišli k Izaiju.
6 and Isaiah saith to them, 'Thus do ye say unto your lord: Thus said Jehovah, Be not afraid because of the words that thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Asshur have reviled Me.
Izaija jim je rekel: »Tako boste rekli svojemu gospodarju: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Ne boj se besed, ki si jih slišal, s katerimi so služabniki asirskega kralja proti meni izrekali bogokletje.
7 Lo, I am giving in him a spirit, and he hath heard a report, and hath turned back to his land, and I have caused him to fall by the sword in his land.'
Glej, nadenj bom poslal sunek [duha] in slišal bo govorico in se vrne v svojo lastno deželo. Povzročil mu bom, da v svoji lastni deželi pade pod mečem.‹«
8 And the chief of the butlers turneth back and findeth the king of Asshur fighting against Libnah, for he hath heard that he hath journeyed from Lachish.
Tako se je Rabšaké vrnil in našel asirskega kralja, vojskujočega se zoper Libno, kajti slišal je, da je ta odšel iz Lahíša.
9 And he heareth concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, saying, 'Lo, he hath come out to fight with thee;' and he turneth and sendeth messengers unto Hezekiah, saying,
Ko je slišal o etiopskem kralju Tirháku govoriti: »Glej, prišel je ven, da se bojuje zoper tebe, « je ponovno poslal poslance k Ezekíju, rekoč:
10 'Thus do ye speak unto Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God lift thee up in whom thou art trusting, saying, Jerusalem is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
»Tako boste govorili Judovemu kralju Ezekíju, rekoč: ›Naj te tvoj Bog, v katerega zaupaš, ne zavaja, rekoč: ›Jeruzalem ne bo izročen v roko asirskega kralja.‹
11 Lo, thou hast heard that which the kings of Asshur have done to all the lands — to devote them; and thou art delivered!
Glej, slišal si kaj so asirski kralji storili vsem deželam z njihovim popolnim uničenjem. In ti boš rešen?
12 did the gods of the nations deliver them whom my fathers destroyed — Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden, who [are] in Thelassar?
Mar so bogovi narodov rešili tiste, ki so jih moji očetje uničili; kakor Gozána, Harána, Recefa in otroke Edena, ki so bili v Telasárju?
13 Where [is] the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?'
Kje je kralj Hamáta, kralj Arpáda in kralj mesta Sefarvájima, Hene in Avája?«
14 And Hezekiah taketh the letters out of the hand of the messengers, and readeth them, and goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and Hezekiah spreadeth it before Jehovah.
In Ezekíja je prejel pismo iz roke poslancev ter ga prebral. Ezekíja je odšel gor v Gospodovo hišo in ga razgrnil pred Gospodom.
15 And Hezekiah prayeth before Jehovah, and saith, 'O Jehovah, God of Israel, inhabiting the cherubs, Thou [art] God Himself — Thyself alone — to all the kingdoms of the earth: Thou hast made the heavens and the earth.
Ezekíja je molil pred Gospodom in rekel: »Oh Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ki prebivaš med kerubi, ti si Bog, celó samo ti vsem zemeljskim kraljestvom. Ti si naredil nebo in zemljo.
16 Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, and hear; open, O Jehovah, Thine eyes, and see; and hear Thou the words of Sennacherib with which he hath sent him to reproach the living God.
Gospod, nagni svoje uho in prisluhni, odpri, Gospod, svoje oči. Poglej in poslušaj besede Senaheriba, ki ga je poslal, da graja živega Boga.
17 'Truly, O Jehovah, kings of Asshur have laid waste the nations, and their land,
Resnično Gospod, sirski kralji so uničili narode in njihove dežele,
18 and have put their gods into fire, for they [are] no gods, but work of the hands of man, wood and stone, and destroy them.
njihove bogove so vrgli v ogenj, kajti le-ti niso bili bogovi, temveč delo človeških rok, les in kamen. Zato so jih uničili.
19 And now, O Jehovah our God, save us, we pray Thee, out of his hand, and know do all kingdoms of the earth that Thou [art] Jehovah God — Thyself alone.'
Zdaj torej, oh Gospod, naš Bog, rotim te, reši nas iz njegove roke, da bodo vsa kraljestva zemlje lahko vedela, da si ti Gospod Bog, celó samo ti.«
20 And Isaiah son of Amoz sendeth unto Hezekiah, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed unto Me concerning Sennacherib king of Asshur I have heard:
Potem je Amócov sin Izaija, poslal k Ezekíju, rekoč: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: › To, kar si molil k meni zoper asirskega kralja Senaheriba, sem slišal.
21 this [is] the word that Jehovah spake concerning him: 'Trampled on thee — laughed at thee, Hath the virgin daughter of Zion Behind thee shaken the head — Hath the daughter of Jerusalem?
To je beseda, ki jo je glede njega govoril Gospod: ›Devica, sionska hči me je prezirala in se smejala do norčevanja, jeruzalemska hči je s svojo glavo zmajevala nad teboj.
22 Whom hast thou reproached and reviled? And against whom lifted up a voice? Yea, thou dost lift up on high thine eyes — Against the Holy One of Israel!
Koga si grajal in zoper mene izrekal bogokletje? In zoper koga si povišal svoj glas in svoje oči povzdignil na visoko? Celó zoper Svetega Izraelovega.
23 By the hand of thy messengers Thou hast reproached the Lord, and sayest: In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of mountains — The sides of Lebanon, And I cut down the height of its cedars, The choice of its firs, And I enter the lodging of its extremity, The forest of its Carmel.
S svojimi poslanci si grajal Gospoda in rekel: ›Z množico svojih bojnih voz sem prišel gor na višine gora, k pobočjem Libanona in posekal bom njegova visoka cedrova drevesa in njegov izbran cipresov les in vstopil bom v taborišča njegovih meja in v gozd njegovega Karmela.
24 I have digged, and drunk strange waters, And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark.
Kopál sem, pil tuje vode in s podplatom svojega stopala sem posušil vse reke obleganih krajev.‹
25 Hast thou not heard from afar, it I made, From days of old that I formed it? Now I have brought it in, And it becometh a desolation, Ruinous heaps [are] fenced cities,
Mar nisi slišal dolgo nazaj kako sem to storil in od starodavnih časov, da sem to oblikoval? Ali sem sedaj privedel, da se zgodi, da bi ti opustošil utrjena mesta v kupe razvalin?
26 And their inhabitants [are] feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up, They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted corn — before it hath risen up!
Zato so bili njihovi prebivalci majhne moči. Bili so zaprepadeni in zbegani. Bili so kakor trava polja in kakor zeleno zelišče, kakor trava na hišnih strehah in kakor ožgano žito preden zraste.
27 And thy sitting down, and thy going out, And thy coming in, I have known, And thine anger towards Me;
Toda poznam tvoje prebivališče, tvoj izhod, tvoj prihod in tvoje besnenje zoper mene.
28 Because of thine anger towards Me, And thy noise — it came up into Mine ears, I have put My hook in thy nose, And My bridle in thy lips, And have caused thee to turn back, In the way in which thou camest.
Ker je tvoje besnenje zoper mene in je tvoj hrup prišel gor v moja ušesa, zato bom zataknil kavelj v tvoj nos in svojo brzdo med tvoje ustnice in obrnil te bom nazaj po poti, po kateri si prišel.
29 And this to thee [is] the sign, Food of the year [is] the spontaneous growth, And in the second year the self-produced, And in the third year sow ye, and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat their fruits.
To ti bo znamenje: ›To leto boste jedli takšne stvari, ki same zrasejo, v drugem letu pa to, kar zraste iz istega. V tretjem letu pa sejte, žanjite, zasajajte vinograde in jejte njegove sadove.
30 And it hath continued — The escaped of the house of Judah That hath been left — to take root beneath, And hath made fruit upward.
Preostanek, ki je pobegnil iz Judove hiše, se bo še enkrat ukoreninil navzdol in prinašal sad navzgor.
31 For from Jerusalem goeth out a remnant, And an escape from mount Zion; The zeal of Jehovah [of Hosts] doth this.
Kajti iz Jeruzalema bo izšel preostanek in z gore Sion tisti, ki pobegnejo. Gorečnost Gospoda nad bojevniki bo to storila.‹
32 Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Concerning the king of Asshur: He doth not come in unto this city, Nor doth he shoot there an arrow, Nor doth he come before it with shield. Nor doth he pour out against it a mount.
Zato tako govori Gospod glede asirskega kralja: ›Ne bo prišel v to mesto, niti tja ne bo izstrelil puščice, niti ne bo predenj prišel s ščitom, niti ne bo zoper njega nasul okopov.
33 In the way that he cometh in — In it he turneth back, And unto this city he doth not come in, The affirmation of Jehovah —
Po poti, po kateri je prišel, po isti se bo vrnil in ne bo prišel v to mesto, ‹ govori Gospod.
34 And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'
›Kajti branil bom to mesto, da ga rešim zaradi sebe in zaradi svojega služabnika Davida.‹«
35 And it cometh to pass, in that night, that a messenger of Jehovah goeth out, and smiteth in the camp of Asshur a hundred eighty and five thousand, and they rise early in the morning, and lo, all of them [are] dead corpses.
Tisto noč se je pripetilo, da je Gospodov angel odšel ven in v taboru Asircev udaril sto petinosemdeset tisoč [mož]. Ko so zgodaj zjutraj vstali, glej, vsi so bili mrtva trupla.
36 And Sennacherib king of Asshur journeyeth, and goeth, and turneth back, and dwelleth in Nineveh;
Tako je asirski kralj Senaherib odpotoval, odšel, se vrnil in prebival v Ninivah.
37 and it cometh to pass, he is bowing himself in the house of Nisroch his god, and Adramelech and Sharezar [his sons] have smitten him with the sword, and they have escaped to the land of Ararat, and Esar-Haddon his son reigneth in his stead.
Pripetilo se je, ko je oboževal v hiši svojega boga Nisróha, da sta ga njegova sinova Adraméleh in Sarécer udarila z mečem in pobegnila v deželo Armenijo. Namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Asarhadón.
