1 Kraljevima 20
1 A Ven-Adad car Sirski skupi vojsku svoju, i imaše sa sobom trideset i dva cara, i konje i kola; i otišavši opkoli Samariju i stade je biti.
Ben Hadad the king of Aram gathered all his army together; and there were thirty-two kings with him, and horses and chariots: and he went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
2 I posla poslanike k Ahavu caru Izrailjevu u grad,
He sent messengers to Ahab king of Israel, into the city, and said to him, "Thus says Ben Hadad,
3 I poruèi mu: ovako veli Ven-Adad: srebro tvoje i zlato tvoje moje je, tako i žene tvoje i tvoji lijepi sinovi moji su.
'Your silver and your gold is mine. Your wives also and your children, even the best, are mine.'"
4 A car Izrailjev odgovori i reèe: kao što si rekao, gospodaru moj care, ja sam tvoj i sve što imam.
The king of Israel answered, "It is according to your saying, my lord, O king. I am yours, and all that I have."
5 A poslanici opet doðoše i rekoše: ovako veli Ven-Adad: poslao sam k tebi i poruèio: srebro svoje i zlato svoje i žene svoje i sinove svoje da mi daš.
The messengers came again, and said, "Ben Hadad says, 'I sent indeed to you, saying, "You shall deliver me your silver, and your gold, and your wives, and your children;
6 Zato æu sjutra u ovo doba poslati sluge svoje k tebi da pregledaju kuæu tvoju i kuæe sluga tvojih, i što ti je god milo, oni æe uzeti i odnijeti.
but I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they shall search your house, and the houses of your servants; and it shall be, that whatever is pleasant in their eyes, they shall put it in their hand, and take it away."'"
7 Tada dozva car Izrailjev sve starješine zemaljske i reèe: gledajte i vidite kako ovaj traži zlo; jer posla k meni po mene i po sinove moje i po srebro moje i po zlato moje, i ja mu ne branih.
Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, "Please notice how this man seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I did not deny him."
8 A sve starješine i sav narod rekoše mu: ne slušaj ga i ne pristaj.
All the elders and all the people said to him, "Do not listen, neither consent."
9 I reèe poslanicima Ven-Adadovijem: kažite caru gospodaru mojemu: što si prvo poruèio sluzi svojemu sve æu uèiniti; ali ovo ne mogu uèiniti. Tako otidoše poslanici i odnesoše mu taj odgovor.
Therefore he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, "Tell my lord the king, 'All that you sent for to your servant at the first I will do; but this thing I cannot do.'" The messengers departed, and brought him back the message.
10 A Ven-Adad posla k njemu i poruèi: tako da mi uèine bogovi i tako da dodadu! neæe biti dosta praha od Samarije da svemu narodu koji ide za mnom dopadne po jedna grst.
Ben Hadad sent to him, and said, "The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for handfuls for all the people who follow me."
11 A car Izrailjev odgovori i reèe: kažite: neka se ne hvali onaj koji se opasuje kao onaj koji se raspasuje.
The king of Israel answered, "Tell him, 'Do not let him who puts on his armor brag like he who takes it off.'"
12 A kad on to èu pijuæi s carevima pod šatorima, reèe slugama svojim: dižite se. I digoše se na grad.
It happened, when Ben Hadad heard this message, as he was drinking, he and the kings, in the pavilions, that he said to his servants, "Prepare to attack." They prepared to attack the city.
13 Tada gle, pristupi jedan prorok k Ahavu caru Izrailjevu, i reèe: ovako veli Gospod: vidiš li sve ovo mnoštvo? evo, ja æu ti ga dati u ruke danas da poznaš da sam ja Gospod.
Look, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, "Thus says Jehovah, 'Have you seen all this great multitude? Look, I will deliver it into your hand this day; and you shall know that I am Jehovah.'"
14 A Ahav reèe: preko koga? A on reèe: ovako veli Gospod: preko momaka knezova zemaljskih. Opet reèe: ko æe zametnuti boj? A on reèe: ti.
Ahab said, "By whom?" He said, "Thus says Jehovah, 'By the young men of the governors of the districts.'" Then he said, "Who shall begin the battle?" He answered, "You."
15 Tada prebroji momke knezova zemaljskih, i bješe ih dvjesta i trideset i dva; poslije njih prebroji sav narod, sve sinove Izrailjeve, i bješe ih sedam tisuæa.
Then he mustered the young men of the governors of the districts, and they were two hundred and thirty-two. After them, he mustered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand.
16 I izidoše u podne; a Ven-Adad pijuæi opi se u šatorima s trideset i dva cara koji mu doðoše u pomoæ.
They went out at noon. But Ben Hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings who helped him.
17 I izidoše prvo momci knezova zemaljskih; a Ven-Adad posla, i javiše mu i rekoše: izidoše ljudi iz Samarije.
the young men of the governors of the districts went out first; and Ben Hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, "Men are coming out from Samaria."
18 A on reèe: ako su izašli mira radi, pohvatajte ih žive; ako su izašli na boj, pohvatajte ih žive.
He said, "If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive."
19 I izidoše iz grada momci knezova zemaljskih, i vojska za njima.
So these went out of the city, the young men of the governors of the districts, and the army which followed them.
20 I svaki ubi s kojim se sukobi, te Sirci pobjegoše a Izrailjci ih potjeraše. I Ven-Adad car Sirski pobježe na konju s konjicima.
They each killed his man. The Arameans fled, and Israel pursued them. Ben Hadad the king of Aram escaped on a horse with horsemen.
21 I car Izrailjev izide i pobi konje i kola, i uèini velik pokolj meðu Sircima.
The king of Israel went out, and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Arameans with a great slaughter.
22 Potom doðe prorok k caru Izrailjevu i reèe mu: idi, budi hrabar; i promisli i vidi šta æeš èiniti, jer æe do godine opet doæi car Sirski na te.
The prophet came near to the king of Israel, and said to him, "Go, strengthen yourself, and mark, and see what you do; for at the return of the year the king of Aram will come up against you."
23 A caru Sirskom rekoše sluge njegove: njihovi su bogovi gorski bogovi, zato nas nadjaèaše; nego da se bijemo s njima u polju, zacijelo æemo ih nadjaèati.
The servants of the king of Aram said to him, "Their god is a god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we. But let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.
24 Uèini dakle ovako: ukloni te careve s mjesta njihovijeh, i postavi vojvode mjesto njih.
Do this thing: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their place.
25 Pa skupi vojsku kakva je bila ona koja ti je izginula, i konje kakvi su bili oni konji, i kola kao ona kola; pa da se pobijemo s njima u polju; zacijelo æemo ih nadjaèati. I posluša ih, i uèini tako.
Muster an army, like the army that you have lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot. We will fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than them." He listened to their voice, and did so.
26 A kad proðe godina, Ven-Adad prebroji Sirce, i poðe u Afek da vojuje na Izrailja.
It happened at the return of the year, that Ben Hadad mustered the Arameans, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel.
27 I sinovi Izrailjevi prebrojiše se, i ponesavši hrane izidoše pred njih. I stadoše u oko sinovi Izrailjevi prema njima, kao dva mala stada koza, a Sirci bijahu prekrilili zemlju.
The children of Israel were mustered, and were provisioned, and went against them. The children of Israel camped before them like two little flocks of young goats; but the Arameans filled the country.
28 Tada doðe èovjek Božji, i progovori caru Izrailjevu i reèe: ovako veli Gospod: što Sirci rekoše da je Gospod gorski Bog a nije Bog poljski, zato æu ti dati u ruke sve ovo mnoštvo veliko da znate da sam ja Gospod.
A man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, "Thus says Jehovah, 'Because the Arameans have said, "Jehovah is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys"; therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am Jehovah.'"
29 I stajahu u okolu jedni prema drugima sedam dana; a sedmoga dana pobiše se, i sinovi Izrailjevi pobiše Siraca sto tisuæa pješaka u jedan dan.
They camped one over against the other seven days. So it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel killed one hundred thousand footmen of the Arameans in one day.
30 A ostali pobjegoše u grad Afek, i pade zid na dvadeset i sedam tisuæa ljudi koji bijahu ostali. I Ven-Adad pobjegav u grad uðe u najtajniju klijet.
But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men who were left. Ben Hadad fled, and came into the city, into an inner room.
31 A sluge mu rekoše: evo èuli smo da su carevi doma Izrailjeva milostivi carevi; da vežemo kostrijet oko sebe i da metnemo uzice sebi oko vratova, pa da izidemo pred cara Izrailjeva, da ako ostavi u životu dušu tvoju.
His servants said to him, "See now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings. Please let us put sackcloth on our bodies, and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel. Maybe he will save your life."
32 I vezaše kostrijet oko sebe, i metnuše uzice sebi oko vratova, i doðoše k caru Izrailjevu i rekoše: sluga tvoj Ven-Adad veli: ostavi u životu dušu moju. A on reèe: je li još živ? brat mi je.
So they put sackcloth on their bodies and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, "Your servant Ben Hadad says, 'Please let me live.'" He said, "Is he still alive? He is my brother."
33 A ljudi uzeše to za dobar znak, i odmah da bi ga uhvatili za rijeè rekoše: brat je tvoj Ven-Adad. A on reèe: idite, dovedite ga. Tada Ven-Adad izide k njemu; a on ga posadi na svoja kola.
Now the men were looking for an omen, and they seized upon it from him, and they said, "Ben Hadad is your brother." Then he said, "Go, bring him." Then Ben Hadad came out to him, and he had him come up into the chariot.
34 Tada mu reèe Ven-Adad: gradove koje je uzeo otac moj tvome ocu, vratiæu, i naèini sebi ulice u Damasku kao što je otac moj uèinio u Samariji. A on odgovori: s tom vjerom otpustiæu te. I uèini vjeru s njim, i otpusti ga.
Ben Hadad said to him, "The cities which my father took from your father I will restore. You shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria." "I," said Ahab, "will let you go with this covenant." So he made a covenant with him, and let him go.
35 Tada jedan izmeðu sinova proroèkih reèe drugome po rijeèi Gospodnjoj: bij me. Ali ga onaj ne htje biti.
A certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow by the word of Jehovah, "Please strike me." The man refused to strike him.
36 A on mu reèe: što ne posluša glasa Gospodnjega, zato, evo kad otideš od mene, lav æe te zaklati. I kad otide od njega, sukobi ga lav i zakla ga.
Then he said to him, "Because you have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah, look, as soon as you are departed from me, a lion shall kill you." As soon as he was departed from him, a lion found him, and killed him.
37 Opet našav drugoga reèe mu: bij me. A onaj ga izbi i izrani ga.
Then he found another man, and said, "Please strike me." The man struck him, smiting and wounding him.
38 Tada otide prorok i stade na put kuda æe car proæi, i nagrdi se pepelom po licu.
So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with his headband over his eyes.
39 A kad car prolažaše, on viknu cara i reèe: tvoj sluga bijaše izašao u boj, a jedan došavši dovede mi èovjeka i reèe: èuvaj ovoga èovjeka; ako li ga nestane, biæe tvoja duša za njegovu dušu, ili æeš platiti talanat srebra.
As the king passed by, he cried to the king; and he said, "Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and look, a man turned aside, and brought a man to me, and said, 'Guard this man. If by any means he be missing, then your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.'
40 A kad tvoj sluga imaše posla tamo amo, njega nesta. Tada mu reèe car Izrailjev: to ti je sud, sam si otsudio.
As your servant was busy here and there, he was gone." The king of Israel said to him, "So your judgment shall be; you yourself have decided it."
41 A on brže ubrisa pepeo s lica, i car Izrailjev pozna ga da je jedan od proroka.
He hurried, and took the headband away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized that he was of the prophets.
42 A on mu reèe: ovako veli Gospod: što si pustio iz ruku èovjeka kojega sam ja osudio da se istrijebi, duša æe tvoja biti za njegovu dušu i narod tvoj za njegov narod.
He said to him, "Thus says Jehovah, 'Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people.'"
43 I otide car Izrailjev kuæi svojoj zlovoljan i ljutit, i doðe u Samariju.
The king of Israel went to his house sullen and angry, and came to Samaria.
