1 Kraljevima 19
1 A Ahav pripovjedi Jezavelji sve što je uèinio Ilija i kako je sve proroke isjekao maèem.
Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.
2 Tada Jezavelja posla glasnike k Iliji i poruèi mu: tako da uèine bogovi i tako da dodadu, ako sjutra u ovo doba ne uèinim od tebe što je od kojega god tijeh.
Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, “So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I don’t make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time!”
3 A on videæi to usta i otide duše svoje radi, i doðe u Virsaveju Judinu, i ondje ostavi momka svojega.
When he saw that, he arose and ran for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.
4 A sam otide u pustinju dan hoda; i došav sjede pod smreku, i zaželje da umre, i reèe: dosta je veæ, Gospode, primi dušu moju, jer nijesam bolji od otaca svojih.
But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree. Then he requested for himself that he might die, and said, “It is enough. Now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.”
5 Potom leže i zaspa pod smrekom. A gle, anðeo taknu ga i reèe mu: ustani, jedi.
He lay down and slept under a juniper tree; and behold, an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat!”
6 A on pogleda, i gle, èelo glave mu hljeb na ugljenu peèen i krèag vode. I jede i napi se, pa leže opet.
He looked, and behold, there was at his head a cake baked on the coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank, and lay down again.
7 A anðeo Gospodnji doðe opet drugom, i taknu ga govoreæi: ustani, jedi, jer ti je put dalek.
The LORD’s angel came again the second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.”
8 A on ustavši jede i napi se; potom okrijepiv se onijem jelom ide èetrdeset dana i èetrdeset noæi dokle doðe na goru Božiju Horiv.
He arose, and ate and drank, and went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights to Horeb, God’s Mountain.
9 A ondje uðe u jednu peæinu i zanoæi u njoj; i gle, rijeè Gospodnja doðe mu govoreæi: šta æeš ti tu, Ilija?
He came to a cave there, and camped there; and behold, the LORD’s word came to him, and he said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
10 A on reèe: revnovah veoma za Gospoda Boga nad vojskama; jer sinovi Izrailjevi ostaviše zavjet tvoj, tvoje oltare razvališe, i proroke tvoje pobiše maèem; a ja ostah sam, pa traže dušu moju da mi je uzmu.
He said, “I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of Armies; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.”
11 A on reèe: izidi i stani na gori pred Gospodom. I gle, Gospod prolažaše, a pred Gospodom velik i jak vjetar, koji brda razvaljivaše i stijene razlamaše; ali Gospod ne bješe u vjetru; a iza vjetra doðe trus; ali Gospod ne bješe u trusu;
He said, “Go out and stand on the mountain before the LORD.” Behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore the mountains and broke in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
12 A iza trusa doðe oganj; ali Gospod ne bješe u ognju. A iza ognja doðe glas tih i tanak.
After the earthquake a fire passed; but the LORD was not in the fire. After the fire, there was a still small voice.
13 A kad to èu Ilija, zakloni lice svoje plaštem i izašav stade na vratima od peæine. I gle, doðe mu glas govoreæi: šta æeš ti tu, Ilija?
When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle, went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. Behold, a voice came to him, and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
14 A on reèe: revnovah veoma za Gospoda Boga nad vojskama; jer sinovi Izrailjevi ostaviše zavjet tvoj, tvoje oltare razvališe, i proroke tvoje pobiše maèem; a ja ostah sam, pa traže moju dušu da mi je uzmu.
He said, “I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of Armies; for the children of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword. I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.”
15 Tada mu reèe Gospod: idi, vrati se svojim putem u pustinju Damaštansku, i kad doðeš pomaži Azaila za cara nad Sirijom.
The LORD said to him, “Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus. When you arrive, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria.
16 A Juja sina Nimsijina pomaži za cara nad Izrailjem, a Jelisija sina Safatova iz Avel-Meole pomaži za proroka mjesto sebe.
Anoint Jehu the son of Nimshi to be king over Israel; and anoint Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah to be prophet in your place.
17 Jer ko uteèe od maèa Azailova njega æe pogubiti Juj; a ko uteèe od maèa Jujeva njega æe pogubiti Jelisije.
He who escapes from the sword of Hazael, Jehu will kill; and he who escapes from the sword of Jehu, Elisha will kill.
18 Ali sam ostavio u Izrailju sedam tisuæa, koji nijedan ne saviše koljena pred Valom, niti ga ustima svojim cjelivaše.
Yet I reserved seven thousand in Israel, all the knees of which have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth which has not kissed him.”
19 I otide odande, i naðe Jelisija sina Safatova gdje ore, a dvanaest jarmova pred njim, i sam bijaše kod dvanaestoga; i iduæi mimo nj Ilija baci na nj plašt svoj.
So he departed from there and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth. Elijah went over to him and put his mantle on him.
20 A on ostavi volove, i otrèa za Ilijom i reèe: da cjelujem oca svojega i mater svoju; pa æu iæi za tobom. A on mu reèe: idi, vrati se, jer šta sam ti uèinio?
Elisha left the oxen and ran after Elijah, and said, “Let me please kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you.” He said to him, “Go back again; for what have I done to you?”
21 I on se vrati od njega, i uze jaram volova i zakla ih, i na drvima od pluga skuha meso i dade ga narodu, te jedoše; potom ustavši otide za Ilijom i služaše mu.
He returned from following him, and took the yoke of oxen, killed them, and boiled their meat with the oxen’s equipment, and gave to the people; and they ate. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and served him.
