< 2 Kraljevima 3 >

1 A Joram sin Ahavov zacari se nad Izrailjem u Samariji osamnaeste godine carovanja Josafatova nad Judom, i carova dvanaest godina.
NOW Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
2 I èinjaše što je zlo pred Gospodom, ali ne kao otac njegov i kao mati njegova, jer obori lik Valov koji bješe naèinio otac njegov.
And he wrought evil in the sight of the Lord; but not like his father, and like his mother: for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made.
3 Ali osta u grijesima Jerovoama sina Navatova, kojima navede na grijeh Izrailja, i ne otstupi od njih.
Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
4 A Misa car Moavski imaše mnogo stoke, i davaše caru Izrailjevu sto tisuæa jaganjaca i sto tisuæa ovnova pod runom.
And Mesha king of Moab was a sheepmaster, and rendered unto the king of Israel an hundred thousand lambs, and an hundred thousand rams, with the wool.
5 Ali kad umrije Ahav, odmetnu se car Moavski od cara Izrailjeva.
But it came to pass, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
6 A car Joram izide u to vrijeme iz Samarije i prebroji svega Izrailja.
And king Jehoram went out of Samaria the same time, and numbered all Israel.
7 I otide, te posla k Josafatu caru Judinu i poruèi mu: car Moavski odmetnu se od mene; hoæeš li iæi sa mnom na vojsku na Moavce? A on reèe: hoæu, ja kao ti, moj narod kao tvoj narod, moji konji kao tvoji konji.
And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up: I am as thou art, my people as thy people, and my horses as thy horses.
8 Iza toga reèe: a kojim æemo putem iæi? A on reèe: preko pustinje Edomske.
And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he answered, The way through the wilderness of Edom.
9 I tako izide car Izrailjev i car Judin i car Edomski, i idoše putem sedam dana, i ne bijaše vode vojsci ni stoci, koja iðaše za njima.
So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom: and they fetched a compass of seven days’ journey: and there was no water for the host, and for the cattle that followed them.
10 I reèe car Izrailjev: jaoh! dozva Gospod ova tri cara da ih preda u ruke Moavcima.
And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the Lord hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab!
11 A Josafat reèe: ima li tu koji prorok Gospodnji da upitamo Gospoda preko njega? A jedan izmeðu sluga cara Izrailjeva odgovori i reèe: ovdje je Jelisije sin Safatov, koji je Iliji poljevao vodom ruke.
But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire of the Lord by him? And one of the king of Israel’s servants answered and said, Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat, which poured water on the hands of Elijah.
12 Tada reèe Josafat: u njega je rijeè Gospodnja. I otidoše k njemu car Izrailjev i Josafat i car Edomski.
And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the Lord is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
13 A Jelisije reèe caru Izrailjevu: šta je meni do tebe? idi ka prorocima oca svojega i ka prorocima matere svoje. A car Izrailjev reèe mu: ne, jer Gospod dozva ova tri cara da ih preda u ruke Moavcima.
And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the Lord hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.
14 A Jelisije reèe: tako da je živ Gospod nad vojskama, pred kojim stojim, da ne gledam na Josafata cara Judina, ne bih mario za te niti bih te pogledao.
And Elisha said, As the Lord of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.
15 Nego sada dovedite mi gudaèa. I kad gudaè guðaše, doðe ruka Gospodnja nada nj;
But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him.
16 I reèe: ovako veli Gospod: naèinite po ovoj dolini mnogo jama.
And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches.
17 Jer ovako veli Gospod: neæete osjetiti vjetra niti æete vidjeti dažda, ali æe se dolina ova napuniti vode, te æete piti i vi i ljudi vaši i stoka vaša.
For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.
18 Pa i to je malo Gospodu, nego i Moavce æe vam predati u ruke.
And this is but a light thing in the sight of the Lord: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand.
19 I raskopaæete sve tvrde gradove, i sve izabrane gradove, i posjeæi æete sva dobra drveta i zaroniti sve izvore vodene, i svaku njivu dobru potræete kamenjem.
And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.
20 A ujutru kad se prinosi dar, gle, doðe voda od Edomske, i napuni se zemlja vode.
And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
21 A svi Moavci èuvši da su izišli carevi da udare na njih, sazvaše sve koji se poèinjahu pasati i starije i stadoše na meði.
And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood in the border.
22 A ujutru kad ustaše i sunce ogranu nad onom vodom, ugledaše Moavci prema sebi vodu gdje se crveni kao krv.
And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood:
23 I rekoše: krv je; pobili su se carevi, i jedan drugoga pogubili; sada dakle na plijen, Moavci!
And they said, This is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.
24 A kad doðoše do okola Izrailjeva, podigoše se Izrailjci i razbiše Moavce, te pobjegoše ispred njih, a oni uðoše u zemlju Moavsku bijuæi ih.
And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.
25 I gradove njihove raskopaše, i na svaku dobru njivu bacajuæi svaki po kamen zasuše je, i sve izvore vodene zaroniše, i sva dobra drveta posjekoše tako da samo ostaviše kamenje u Kirarasetu. I opkolivši ga praæari stadoše ga biti.
And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kir-haraseth left they the stones thereof; howbeit the slingers went about it, and smote it.
26 A car Moavski kad vidje da æe ga nadvladati vojska, uze sa sobom sedam stotina ljudi, koji mahahu maèem, da prodru kroz vojsku cara Edomskoga, ali ne mogoše.
And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.
27 Tada uze sina svojega prvenca koji šæaše biti car na njegovo mjesto, i prinese ga na žrtvu paljenicu na zidu. Tada se podiže veliki gnjev na Izrailja, te otidoše odande i vratiše se u svoju zemlju.
Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
