2 Kraljevima 18

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

Now in the third yeere of Hoshea, sonne of Elah King of Israel, Hezekiah the sonne of Ahaz king of Iudah began to reigne.

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

He was fiue and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and reigned nine and twenty yeere in Ierusalem. His mothers name also was Abi the daughter of Zachariah,

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

And he did vprightly in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Dauid his father had done.

4 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.

He tooke away the hie places, and brake the images, and cut downe the groues, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for vnto those dayes the children of Israel did burne incense to it, and hee called it Nehushtan.

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

He trusted in the Lord God of Israel: so that after him was none like him among all the Kings of Iudah, neither were there any such before him.

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

For he claue to the Lord, and departed not from him, but kept his commandements, which the Lord had commanded Moses.

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

So the Lord was with him, and he prospered in all thinges, which he tooke in hande: also he rebelled against the King of Asshur, and serued him not.

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

He smote the Philistims vnto Azzah, and the coastes thereof, from the watch towre vnto the defensed citie.

9 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.

And in the fourth yere of King Hezekiah, (which was the seuenth yeere of Hoshea sonne of Elah King of Israel) Shalmaneser King of Asshur came vp against Samaria, and besieged it.

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

And after three yeeres they tooke it, euen in the sixt yeere of Hezekiah: that is, the ninth yeere of Hoshea King of Israel was Samaria taken.

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

Then the King of Asshur did carry away Israel vnto Asshur, and put them in Halah and in Habor, by the riuer of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes,

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

Because they woulde not obey the voyce of the Lord their God, but transgressed his couenant: that is, all that Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded, and would neyther obey nor doe them.

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

Moreouer, in the fourteenth yeere of King Hezekiah, Saneherib King of Asshur came vp against all the strong cities of Iudah, and tooke them.

14 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.

Then Hezekiah King of Iudah sent vnto the King of Asshur to Lachish, saying, I haue offended: depart from me, and what thou layest vpon me, I wil beare it. And the King of Asshur appoynted vnto Hezekiah King of Iudah three hudreth talents of siluer, and thirty talets of golde.

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

Therefore Hezekiah gaue all the siluer that was found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the Kings house.

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

At the same season did Hezekiah pul off the plates of the doores of the Temple of the Lord, and the pillars (which the sayd Hezekiah King of Iudah had couered ouer) and gaue them to the King of Asshur.

17 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.

And the King of Asshur sent Tartan, and Rab-saris, and Rabshakeh from Lachish to King Hezekiah with a great hoste against Ierusalem. And they went vp, and came to Ierusalem, and when they were come vp, they stood by the conduite of the vpper poole, which is by the path of the fullers fielde,

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

And called to the King. Then came out to them Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder.

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

And Rabshakeh sayde vnto them, Tell ye Hezekiah, I pray you, Thus saith the great King, euen the great King of Asshur, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?

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

Thou thinkest, Surely I haue eloquence, but counsell and strength are for the warre. On whom then doest thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

21 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.

Lo, thou trustest now in this broken staffe of reede, to wit, on Egypt, on which if a man leane, it will goe into his hand, and pearce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt vnto all that trust on him.

22 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.

But if ye say vnto me, We trust in the Lord our God, is not that he whose hie places, and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath sayd to Iudah and Ierusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Ierusalem?

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

Now therefore giue hostages to my lord the King of Asshur, and I will giue thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders vpon them.

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

For how canst thou despise any captaine of the least of my masters seruants, and put thy trust on Egypt for charets and horsemen?

25 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.

Am I now come vp without the Lord to this place, to destroy it? the Lord sayd to me, Goe vp against this land, and destroy it.

26 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.

Then Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Ioah said vnto Rabshakeh, Speake I pray thee, to thy seruants in the Aramites language, for we vnderstand it, and talke not with vs in the Iewes tongue, in the audience of the people that are on the wall.

27 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?

But Rabshakeh saide vnto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speake these words, and not to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eate their owne doung, and drinke their owne pisse with you?

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

So Rabshakeh stoode and cryed with a loude voyce in the Iewes language, and spake, saying, Heare the wordes of the great King, of the king of Asshur.

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

Thus sayth the King, Let not Hezekiah deceiue you: for he shall not be able to deliuer you out of mine hand.

30 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.

Neither let Hezekiah make you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliuer vs, and this citie shall not be giuen ouer into the hand of the king of Asshur.

31 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.

Hearken not vnto Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Asshur, Make appointment with me, and come out to me, that euery man may eate of his owne vine, and euery man of his owne figge tree, and drinke euery man of the water of his owne well,

32 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.

Till I come, and bring you to a land like your owne land, euen a land of wheate and wine, a land of bread and vineyardes, a lande of oliues oyle, and hony, that ye may liue and not die: and obey not Hezekiah, for he deceiueth you, saying, The Lord will deliuer vs.

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

Hath any of the gods of the nations deliuered his lande out of the hand of the King of Asshur?

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

Where is the god of Hamah, and of Arpad? where is the god of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah? how haue they deliuered Samaria out of mine hand?

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

Who are they among all the gods of the nations, that haue deliuered their lande out of mine hand, that the Lord should deliuer Ierusalem out of mine hand?

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

But the people helde their peace, and answered not him a worde: for the Kings commandement was, saying, Answere ye him not.

37 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.

Then Eliakim, the sonne of Hilkiah which was steward of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and Ioah the sonne of Asaph the recorder came to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and tolde him the wordes of Rabshakeh.
