2 Kraljevima 19
1 A kad to èu car Jezekija, razdrije haljine svoje i veza oko sebe kostrijet, pa otide u dom Gospodnji.
And it came to pass, when King Hezekiah heard, that he rent his clothes, —and covered himself with sackcloth, and entered the house of Yahweh;
2 I posla Elijakima, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somnu pisara i najstarije sveštenike obuèene u kostrijet k Isaiji proroku sinu Amosovu.
and sent Eliakim who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, —unto Isaiah the prophet, son of Amoz;
3 I rekoše mu: ovako veli Jezekija: ovo je dan nevolje i kara i ruga; jer prispješe djeca do poroðaja, a nema snage da se rode.
and they said unto him—Thus, saith Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and rebuke, and reviling, is this day, —for children are come to the birth, and, strength, is there none to bring forth!
4 Da ako je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj sve što reèe Ravsak, kojega posla car Asirski gospodar njegov da ruži Boga živoga i da ga vrijeða rijeèima, koje je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj; pomoli se za ostatak koji se nalazi.
It may be that Yahweh thy God will hear all the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his lord hath sent, to reproach a Living God, and will rebuke the words, which Yahweh thy God hath heard, —Wherefore lift thou up a prayer, for the remnant that remaineth.
5 I doðoše k Isaiji sluge cara Jezekije.
So the servants of King Hezekiah came unto Isaiah.
6 I reèe im Isaija: ovako recite gospodaru svojemu: ovako veli Gospod: ne plaši se od rijeèi koje si èuo, kojima huliše na me sluge cara Asirskoga.
And Isaiah said unto them, Thus, shall ye, say, unto your lord, —Thus, saith Yahweh—Be not thou afraid, because of the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have reviled, me:
7 Evo, ja æu pustiti na nj duh, te æe èuti glas i vratiti se u svoju zemlju, i uèiniæu da pogine od maèa u svojoj zemlji.
Behold me! about to let go against him, a blast, and, when he heareth the report, then will he return to his own country, —and I will cause him to fall by the sword, in his own land.
8 I tako vrativši se Ravsak naðe cara Asirskoga gdje bije Livnu, jer bješe èuo da je otišao od Lahisa.
So Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah, —for he had heard that he had broken up from Lachish.
9 A on èu za Tiraku cara Huskoga gdje kazaše: evo ide da se bije s tobom. Zato opet posla poslanike k Jezekiji govoreæi:
And when he heard say of Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, saying, Lo! he hath come forth to fight with thee, —then he again sent messengers unto Hezekiah, saying—
10 Ovako recite Jezekiji caru Judinu: nemoj da te vara Bog tvoj, u kojega se uzdaš govoreæi: neæe se dati Jerusalim u ruke caru Asirskom.
Thus, shall ye, speak, unto Hezekiah king of Judah, saying—Let not thy God in whom thou art trusting beguile thee, saying, —Jerusalem shall not be given over, into the hand of the king of Assyria.
11 Eto èuo si šta su uèinili carevi Asirski svijem zemljama potrvši ih sasvijem; a ti li æeš se izbaviti?
Lo! thou thyself, hast heard, what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands, in devoting them to destruction, —and shalt, thou, be delivered?
12 Jesu li narode koje satrše oci moji izbavili bogovi njihovi, Gosance, Harance, Resefe i sinove Edenove, koji bijahu u Telasaru?
Did the gods of the nations, deliver them, whom my fathers destroyed, Gozan, and Haran, —and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden, who were in Telassar?
13 Gdje je car Ematski i car Arfadski i car od grada Sefarvima, od Ene i Ave?
Where are the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, —of Hena, and Ivvah?
14 A kad Jezekija primi knjigu iz ruku poslanika i proèita je, otide u dom Gospodnji, i razvi je Jezekija pred Gospodom.
And, when Hezekiah had received the letter at the hand of the messengers, and had read it, then went he up to the house of Yahweh, and Hezekiah spread it out before Yahweh.
15 I pomoli se Jezekija Gospodu govoreæi: Gospode Bože Izrailjev, koji sjediš na heruvimima, ti si sam Bog svijem carstvima na zemlji, ti si stvorio nebo i zemlju,
And Hezekiah prayed before Yahweh, and said, O Yahweh, God of Israel, inhabiting the cherubim, thou thyself, art GOD, alone, for all the kingdoms of the earth, —thou, didst make the heavens and the earth.
16 Prigni, Gospode, uho svoje i èuj; otvori, Gospode, oèi svoje i vidi; èuj rijeèi Senahirima, koji posla da ruži Boga živoga.
Bow down, O Yahweh, thine ear, and hear, Open, O Yahweh, thine eyes, and see, —yea hear thou the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent—To reproach a Living God!
17 Istina je, Gospode, opustošili su carevi Asirski one narode i zemlje njihove;
Of a truth, O Yahweh, —the kings of Assyria have devoted to destruction the nations and their lands;
18 I pobacali su bogove njihove u oganj, jer ne bijahu bogovi, nego djelo ruku èovjeèijih, drvo i kamen; zato ih potrše.
and have put their gods in the fire, —for, no-gods, were, they, but the work of the hands of men—wood and stone, and so they destroyed them.
19 I zato, Gospode Bože naš, izbavi nas iz ruku njegovijeh, da poznadu sva carstva na zemlji da si ti Gospode sam Bog.
Now, therefore, O Yahweh our God, save us we pray thee, out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know, that, thou, Yahweh, art God, alone!
20 Tada posla Isaija sin Amosov k Jezekiji, i poruèi mu: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uslišio sam za što si mi se molio radi Senahirima cara Asirskoga.
Then Isaiah son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, —Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, What thou hast prayed unto me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria, I have heard.
21 Ovo je rijeè koju izreèe Gospod za nj: ruga ti se i potsmijeva ti se djevojka, kæi Sionska, za tobom maše glavom kæi Jerusalimska.
This, is the word that Yahweh hath spoken concerning him, —The virgin daughter of Zion, laugheth thee to scorn, mocketh thee, The daughter of Jerusalem, after thee, doth wag her head.
22 Koga si ružio i hulio? i na koga si podigao glas? i podigao u vis oèi svoje? Na sveca Izrailjeva.
Whom, hast thou reproached, and insulted? and, against whom, hast thou lifted high thy voice? yea thou hast proudly raised thine eyes, against the Holy One of Israel.
23 Preko poslanika svojih ružio si Gospoda i rekao si: s mnoštvom kola svojih izidoh na visoke gore, na strane Livanske, i posjeæi æu visoke kedre njegove i lijepe jele njegove, i uæi æu u krajnji stan njegov, u šumu njegova Karmila.
Through thy messengers, thou hast reproached My Lord, and hast said—With my multitude of chariots, have I ascended the height of the mountains, the recesses of Lebanon, —and have cut down its tallest cedars, its choicest firs, and have entered the shelter of its summit, its thick garden forests.
24 Ja sam kopao i pio vodu tuðu, i isušio sam stopama svojim sve potoke gradovima.
I, have digged, and have drunk foreign waters, —and have dried up, with the soles of my feet, all the streams of besieged places.
25 Nijesi li èuo da ja to odavna èinim i od iskona da sam tako uredio? sada puštam to, da prevratiš tvrde gradove u puste gomile.
Hast thou not heard—that, long ago, that, is what I appointed, and, from days of old, devised it? Now, have I brought it to pass, that thou mightest serve to lay waste, in desolate ruins, fortified cities;
26 Zato koji u njima žive iznemogoše, uplašiše se i smetoše se, postaše kao trava poljska, kao zelena travica, kao trava na krovovima, koja se suši prije nego sazri.
And, their inhabitants, being powerless, were overthrown and put to shame, —they became grass of the field, and young herbage, grass on housetops, and seed withered before it came up.
27 Znam sjeðenje tvoje, i polaženje tvoje i dolaženje tvoje znam, i kako bjesniš na me.
Howbeit, thine abode, and thy coming out and thy going in, I know, —and thy raging against me.
28 Jer bjesniš na me, i tvoja obijest doðe do mojih ušiju; zato æu metnuti brnjicu svoju na nozdrve tvoje i uzdu svoju u gubicu tvoju, pa æu te odvesti natrag putem kojim si došao.
Because, thy raging against me, and thy contempt, have come up into mine ears, therefore will I put my ring in thy nose, and my bit in thy lips, and will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
29 A tebi ovo neka bude znak: ješæete ove godine što samo od sebe rodi, i druge godine što opet samo od sebe rodi; a treæe godine sijte i žanjite i sadite vinograde i jedite rod s njih.
And, this unto thee, is the sign—Eating, this year, the growth of scattered seeds, and, in the second year, that which groweth after, —then, in the third year, sow ye and reap, plant ye vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof;
30 Jer ostatak doma Judina, što ostane, opet æe pustiti žile ozdo i roditi ozgo.
Then shall the escaped of the house of Judah that remain, again—take root downward, and bear fruit upward;
31 Jer æe iz Jerusalima izaæi ostatak, i iz gore Siona, koji se saèuvaju. Revnost Gospoda nad vojskama uèiniæe to.
For, out of Jerusalem, shall go forth a remnant, and that which hath escaped—out of Mount Zion, —the jealousy of Yahweh of hosts, will perform this.
32 Zato ovako veli Gospod za cara Asirskoga: neæe uæi u ovaj grad niti æe baciti amo strijele, neæe se primaæi ka njemu sa štitom, niti æe iskopati opkopa oko njega.
Therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not enter this city, nor shoot there, an arrow, —nor attack it with shield, nor cast up against it, a mound;
33 Vratiæe se putem kojim je došao, a u grad ovaj neæe uæi, veli Gospod.
By the way that he cometh in, by the same, shall he return, —and, into this city, shall he not enter, declareth Yahweh!
34 Jer æu braniti taj grad, i saèuvaæu ga sebe radi i radi Davida sluge svojega.
Thus will I throw a covering over this city, to save it, —for mine own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.
35 I istu noæ anðeo Gospodnji izide i pobi u okolu Asirskom sto i osamdeset i pet tisuæa; i kad ustaše ujutru, a to sve sami mrtvaci.
And it came to pass, during that night, that the messenger of Yahweh went forth, and smote, in the camp of the Assyrians, a hundred and eighty-five thousand. And, when men arose early in the morning, lo! they were all, dead bodies!
36 Te se podiže Senahirim car Asirski, i otide, i vrativši se osta u Nineviji.
So Sennacherib king of Assyria brake up, and went his way, and returned, —and remained in Nineveh.
37 I kad se klanjaše u domu Nisroka boga svojega, Adrameleh i Sarasar sinovi njegovi ubiše ga maèem, a sami pobjegoše u zemlju Araratsku, i na njegovo se mjesto zacari Esaradon sin njegov.
And it came to pass, as he was bowing down in the house of Nisroch his god, that, Adrammelech and Sharezer [his sons], smote him with the sword, howbeit, they, escaped into the land of Ararat, —and Esarhaddon his son, reigned, in his stead.
