2 Dnevnika 18
1 I Josafat imajuæi veliko blago i slavu oprijatelji se s Ahavom.
Therefore, Jehoshaphat was wealthy and very famous, and he was joined by affinity to Ahab.
2 I poslije nekoliko godina otide k Ahavu u Samariju; i nakla mu Ahav mnogo ovaca i volova i narodu koji bijaše s njim, i nagovaraše ga da poðe na Ramot Galadski.
And after some years, he descended to him in Samaria. And upon his arrival, Ahab slaughtered very many sheep and oxen, for him and for the people who had arrived with him. And he persuaded him that he should ascend against Ramoth Gilead.
3 I reèe Ahav car Izrailjev Josafatu caru Judinu: hoæeš li iæi sa mnom na Ramot Galadski? A on reèe: ja kao ti, narod moj kao tvoj narod; hoæemo s tobom na vojsku.
And Ahab, the king of Israel, said to Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, “Come with me to Ramoth Gilead.” And he answered him: “As I am, so also are you. As your people are, so also are my people. And we will be with you in war.”
4 Još reèe Josafat caru Izrailjevu: pitaj danas šta æe Gospod reæi.
And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “Consult, I beg you, the word of the Lord for the present circumstances.”
5 Tada sazva car Izrailjev proroke svoje, èetiri stotine ljudi, i reèe im: hoæemo li iæi na vojsku na Ramot Galadski, ili æu se okaniti? A oni rekoše: idi, jer æe ga Gospod dati u ruke caru.
And so the king of Israel gathered together four hundred men of the prophets, and he said to them: “Should we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or should we be quieted?” But they said, “Ascend, and God will deliver into the hand of the king.”
6 A Josafat reèe: ima li tu još koji prorok Gospodnji da ga pitamo?
And Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not a prophet of the Lord here, so that we may inquire of him as well?”
7 A car reèe Josafatu: ima još jedan èovjek preko kojega bismo mogli upitati Gospoda; ali ja mrzim na nj, jer mi ne prorièe dobra nego svagda zlo; to je Miheja sin Jemlin. A Josafat reèe: neka car ne govori tako.
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat: “There is one man, from whom we would be able to ask the will of the Lord. But I hate him, for he never prophesies good to me, but at all times evil. And it is Micaiah, the son of Imlah.” And Jehoshaphat said, “You should not speak in this manner, O king.”
8 Tada car Izrailjev dozva jednoga dvoranina, i reèe mu: brže dovedi Miheju sina Jemlina.
Therefore, the king of Israel called one of the eunuchs, and said to him: “Quickly, summon Micaiah, the son of Imlah.”
9 A car Izrailjev i Josafat car Judin sjeðahu svaki na svom prijestolu obuèeni u carske haljine, sjeðahu na poljani kod vrata Samarijskih, i svi proroci prorokovahu pred njima.
Now the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, were both sitting upon their thrones, clothed in royal vestments. And they were sitting in an open area, beside the gate of Samaria. And all the prophets were prophesying before them.
10 I Sedekija sin Hananin naèini sebi gvozdene rogove, i reèe: ovako veli Gospod: ovijem æeš biti Sirce dokle ih ne istrijebiš.
Truly, Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, made for himself horns of iron, and he said: “Thus says the Lord: With these, you shall threaten Syria, until you crush it.”
11 Tako i svi proroci prorokovahu govoreæi: idi na Ramot Galadski, i biæeš sreæan, jer æe ga Gospod predati caru u ruke.
And all the prophets prophesied similarly, and they said: “Ascend against Ramoth Gilead, and you shall prosper, and the Lord will deliver them into the hand of the king.”
12 A poslanik koji otide da dozove Miheju reèe mu govoreæi: evo proroci prorièu svi jednijem glasom dobro caru; neka i tvoja rijeè bude kao njihova, i govori dobro.
Then the messenger who had gone to summon Micaiah said to him: “Lo, the words of all the prophets, with one mouth, announce good to the king. Therefore, I ask you that you not dissent from them in your word, and that you speak prosperity.”
13 A Miheja reèe: tako da je živ Gospod, govoriæu ono što reèe Bog moj.
And Micaiah responded to him, “As the Lord lives, whatever my God will say to me, the same shall I speak.”
14 I kad doðe k caru, reèe mu car: Miheja! hoæemo li iæi na vojsku na Ramot Galadski, ili æu se okaniti? A on reèe: idite, biæete sreæni, i daæe vam se u ruke.
Therefore, he went to the king. And the king said to him, “Micaiah, should we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or should we be quieted?” And he responded to him: “Ascend. For everything will come to prosperity, and the enemies will be delivered into your hands.”
15 A car mu reèe: koliko æu te puta zaklinjati da mi ne govoriš nego istinu u ime Gospodnje?
And the king said, “Again and again, I bind you by an oath, so that you will not speak to me except what is true in the name of the Lord!”
16 Tada reèe: vidio sam sav narod Izrailjev razasut po planinama kao ovce koje nemaju pastira, jer reèe Gospod: ovi nemaju gospodara, neka se vrate svak svojoj kuæi s mirom.
Then he said: “I saw all of Israel scattered amid the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd. And the Lord said: ‘These have no masters. Let each one return in peace to his own house.’”
17 Tada reèe car Izrailjev Josafatu: nijesam li ti rekao da mi neæe prorokovati dobra nego zlo?
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat: “Did I not tell you that this one would not prophesy to me anything good, but only what is evil?”
18 A Miheja reèe: zato èujte rijeè Gospodnju: vidjeh Gospoda gdje sjedi na prijestolu svom, a sva vojska nebeska stajaše mu s desne i s lijeve strane;
Then he said: “Therefore, listen to the word of the Lord. I saw the Lord sitting upon his throne, and the entire army of heaven was standing beside him, on the right and on the left.
19 I Gospod reèe: ko æe prevariti Ahava cara Izrailjeva da otide i padne kod Ramota Galadskoga? Još reèe: jedan reèe ovo a drugi ono.
And the Lord said: ‘Who will deceive Ahab, the king of Israel, so that he may ascend and fall at Ramoth Gilead?’ And when one spoke in one way, and another in another way,
20 Tada izide jedan duh, i stavši pred Gospoda reèe: ja æu ga prevariti. A Gospod mu reèe: kako?
there came forward a spirit, and he stood before the Lord and said, ‘I will deceive him.’ And the Lord said to him, ‘In what way will you deceive him?’
21 Odgovori: iziæi æu, i biæu lažljiv duh u ustima svijeh proroka njegovijeh. A Gospod mu reèe: prevariæeš ga i nadvladaæeš, idi i uèini tako.
And he responded, ‘I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And the Lord said: ‘You will deceive and prevail. Go forth and do so.’
22 Zato sada eto, Gospod je metnuo lažljiv duh u usta tijem prorocima tvojim; a Gospod je izrekao zlo po te.
Therefore now, behold: the Lord gave a lying spirit to the mouth of all your prophets, and the Lord has spoken evil about you.”
23 Tada pristupi Sedekija sin Hananin, i udari Miheju po obrazu govoreæi: kojim je putem otišao duh Gospodnji od mene da govori s tobom?
Then Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah, approached, and he struck Micaiah on the jaw, and he said: “In what way did the Spirit of the Lord depart from me, so that he would speak to you?”
24 A Miheja mu reèe: eto, vidjeæeš u onaj dan kad otideš u najtajniju klijet da se sakriješ.
And Micaiah said: “You yourself shall see it, in that day, when you will enter a room within a room, so that you may be hidden.”
25 Tada car Izrailjev reèe: uhvatite Miheju, i odvedite ga k Amonu zapovjedniku gradskom i k Joasu sinu carevu.
Then the king of Israel instructed, saying: “Take Micaiah, and lead him to Amon, the leader of the city, and to Joash, the son of Amalech.
26 I recite im: ovako veli car: metnite ovoga u tamnicu, a dajite mu po malo hljeba i po malo vode dokle se ne vratim u miru.
And you shall say: ‘Thus says the king: Send this man to prison, and give to him a little bread and a little water, until I return in peace.’”
27 A Miheja reèe: ako se vratiš u miru, nije Gospod govorio preko mene. Još reèe: èujte svi narodi.
And Micaiah said, “If you will have returned in peace, the Lord has not spoken by me.” And he said, “May all the people listen.”
28 I otide car Izrailjev s Josafatom carem Judinijem na Ramot Galadski.
And so, the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, ascended against Ramoth Gilead.
29 I reèe car Izrailjev Josafatu: ja æu se preobuæi kad poðem u boj, a ti obuci svoje odijelo. I preobuèe se car Izrailjev, i otidoše u boj.
And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat: “I will change my clothing, and in this way I will go into battle. But you should be clothed in your own garments.” And the king of Israel, having changed his clothing, went to war.
30 A car Sirski zapovjedi vojvodama od kola svojih govoreæi: ne udarajte ni na maloga ni na velikoga nego na samoga cara Izrailjeva.
Now the king of Syria had instructed the commanders of his horsemen, saying, “You shall not fight against the least or the greatest, but only against the king of Israel.”
31 A kad vojvode od kola vidješe Josafata, rekoše: to je car Izrailjev. I okrenuše se na nj da udare. Ali Josafat povika, i Gospod mu pomože, i odvrati ih Bog od njega.
And so, when the leaders of the horsemen had seen Jehoshaphat, they said, “This one is the king of Israel.” And while fighting, they surrounded him. But he cried out to the Lord, and he assisted him, and he turned them away from him.
32 Jer vidjevši vojvode od kola da nije car Izrailjev, otstupiše od njega.
For when the commanders of the horsemen had seen that he was not the king of Israel, they left him.
33 A jedan zastrijeli iz luka nagonom i ustrijeli cara Izrailjeva gdje spuèa oklop. A on reèe svojemu vozaèu: savij rukom svojom i izvezi me iz boja, jer sam ranjen.
Then it happened that one of the people shot an arrow indiscriminately, and it struck the king of Israel between the neck and the shoulder. And so he said to his chariot driver: “Turn your hand, and lead me away from the battle line. For I have been wounded.”
34 I boj bi žestok onoga dana, a car Izrailjev zaosta na kolima svojim prema Sircima do veèera, i umrije o sunèanom zahodu.
And the fight ended on that day. But the king of Israel was standing in his chariot facing the Syrians, even until evening. And he died when the sun set.
