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 son of Ahab, began to reign over Israel, in Samaria, in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, —and he 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 did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, only, not like his father, nor like his mother, —but he put away the pillars of Baal which, his father, had made;
3 Ali osta u grijesima Jerovoama sina Navatova, kojima navede na grijeh Izrailja, i ne otstupi od njih.
nevertheless, unto the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat which he caused Israel to commit, he did cleave, —he turned not away therefrom
4 A Misa car Moavski imaše mnogo stoke, i davaše caru Izrailjevu sto tisuæa jaganjaca i sto tisuæa ovnova pod runom.
Now, Mesha king of Moab, was a sheep-master, —and used to render to the king of Israel, the wool of hundred thousand fat sheep, and of a hundred thousand rams.
5 Ali kad umrije Ahav, odmetnu se car Moavski od cara Izrailjeva.
And it came to pass, when Ahab died, that the king of Moab revolted against the king of Israel.
6 A car Joram izide u to vrijeme iz Samarije i prebroji svega Izrailja.
So King Jehoram went forth, on that day, out of Samaria, 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 departed, and sent unto Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying—The king of Moab, hath revolted 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 are as thy people, 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, then, shall we go up? And he said—The way of 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.
Then departed the king of Israel, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom, and went round, a journey of seven days, —and there was no water for the host, nor for the cattle that went with them.
10 I reèe car Izrailjev: jaoh! dozva Gospod ova tri cara da ih preda u ruke Moavcima.
Then said the king of Israel—Alas! for Yahweh hath called these three kings, 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.
So Jehoshaphat said—Is there not, here, a prophet of Yahweh, that we may enquire of Yahweh, from him? Then answered one of the servants of the king of Israel, and said, Here, is Elisha son of Shaphat, who 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.
Then said Jehoshaphat, The word of Yahweh, is with him. So the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat, and the king of Edom, went down unto 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 and thou in common? get thee unto the prophets of thy father, and unto the prophets of thy mother. But the king of Israel said to him—Nay! for Yahweh hath called together these three kings, 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.
Then said Elisha—By the life of Yahweh of hosts, before whom I stand, were it not that, the countenance of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would lift up, I would neither look at thee, nor see thee.
15 Nego sada dovedite mi gudaèa. I kad gudaè guðaše, doðe ruka Gospodnja nada nj;
But, now, bring me one that can touch the strings. For it used to be, when the player touched the strings, then would, the hand of Yahweh, be upon him.
16 I reèe: ovako veli Gospod: naèinite po ovoj dolini mnogo jama.
Then said he, Thus, saith Yahweh, Make, in this torrent-bed, pits, pits!
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 Yahweh—Ye shall not see wind, and ye shall not see rain, yet, that torrent-bed, shall be filled with water, —And ye shall drink, ye, and your cattle, and your beasts;
18 Pa i to je malo Gospodu, nego i Moavce æe vam predati u ruke.
And, this being a small thing in the eyes of Yahweh, he will deliver Moab 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 strong city, and every choice city, and, every goodly tree, shall ye fell, and, all fountains water, shall ye close up, —and, every goodly heritage, shall ye mar 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 offering ascended, that lo! waters, were coming in from the way of Edom, —and the land was filled with the 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.
Now, all Moab, had heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, —so they came together, from all who could gird on a girdle and upwards, and took their stand at the border.
22 A ujutru kad ustaše i sunce ogranu nad onom vodom, ugledaše Moavci prema sebi vodu gdje se crveni kao krv.
And, when they rose early in the morning, the sun, shone forth upon the waters, —and so the Moabites beheld over against them, the waters, red as blood.
23 I rekoše: krv je; pobili su se carevi, i jedan drugoga pogubili; sada dakle na plijen, Moavci!
They said therefore—Blood, —this! Destroyed! The kings have destroyed each other! Yea they have smitten every man his neighbour, —Now, then, to the spoil, O Moab!
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 into the camp of Israel, Israel arose and smote Moab, and they fled from before them, —so they entered thereinto, yea still farther entered Moab;
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, the cities, they pulled down, and, on every goodly heritage, they cast every man his stone, and filled it, and, all fountains of waters, they closed up, and, every goodly tree, they felled, and, though they left the stones thereof in Kir-haraseth, yet the slingers surrounded 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, prevailed against him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through against 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.
So he took his firstborn son who was to have reigned in his stead, and offered him up as an ascending-sacrifice upon the wall. And so it came to pass that there was great indignation against Israel. And they brake up from against him, and returned to their own land.
