2 Kraljevima 6
1 A sinovi proroèki rekoše Jelisiju: gle, mjesto gdje sedimo pred tobom tijesno nam je.
The sons of the prophets said to Elisha, “The place where we live with you is too small for us all.
2 Nego hajde da otidemo na Jordan, pa da uzmemo ondje svaki po brvno i naèinimo ondje mjesto gdje æemo boraviti. A on reèe: idite.
Please let us go to the Jordan, and let every man cut down a tree there, and let us build us a place there where we may live.” Elisha answered, “You may go ahead.”
3 A jedan reèe: budi voljan, poði i ti sa slugama svojim. A on reèe: hoæu.
One of them said, “Please go with your servants.” Elisha answered, “I will go.”
4 I tako poðe s njima. I došavši na Jordan sjekoše drva.
So he went with them, and when they came to the Jordan, they began to cut down trees.
5 A kad jedan od njih sijecijaše drvo, pade mu sjekira u vodu; a on povika govoreæi: avaj gospodaru, još je u naruè uzeta.
But as one was chopping, the ax head fell into the water; he cried out and said, “Oh no, my master, it was borrowed!”
6 A èovjek Božji reèe mu: gdje je pala? A kad mu pokaza mjesto, on otsijeèe drvo i baci ga onamo, i uèini te sjekira ispliva.
So the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” The man showed Elisha the place. He then cut off a stick, threw it in the water, and made the iron float.
7 A on reèe: uzmi je. I èovjek pruži ruku, te je uze.
Elisha said, “Pick it up.” So the man reached out his hand and grabbed it.
8 A kad car Sirski vojevaše na Izrailja, vijeæaše sa slugama svojim, i reèe: tu i tu neka stane vojska moja.
Now the king of Aram was waging war against Israel. He consulted with his servants, saying, “My camp will be in such and such a place.”
9 A èovjek Božji posla k caru Izrailjevu i poruèi: èuvaj se da ne ideš onuda, jer su ondje Sirci u zasjedi.
So the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, “Be careful not to pass that place, for the Arameans are going down there.”
10 I car Izrailjev posla na ono mjesto, za koje reèe èovjek Božji i opomenu ga, te se èuvaše. I to ne bi jedanput ni dva puta.
The king of Israel sent a message to the place about which the man of God had spoken and warned him. More than once or twice, when the king went there, he was on his guard.
11 I smuti se srce caru Sirskom zato, i sazvavši sluge svoje reèe im: hoæete li mi kazati ko od naših dokazuje caru Izrailjevu?
The king of Aram was enraged about these warnings, and he called his servants and said to them, “Will you not tell me who among us is for the king of Israel?”
12 A jedan od sluga njegovijeh reèe mu: niko, care gospodaru moj; nego Jelisije prorok u Izrailju dokazuje caru Izrailjevu rijeèi koje govoriš u ložnici svojoj.
So one of his servants said, “No, my master, king, for Elisha the prophet in Israel tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your own bedroom!”
13 Tada reèe: idite, vidite gdje je, da pošljem da ga uhvate. I javiše mu govoreæi: eno ga u Dotanu.
The king replied, “Go and see where Elisha is so I may send men and capture him.” It was told him, “See, he is in Dothan.”
14 I posla onamo konje i kola s velikom vojskom; i oni došavši noæu opkoliše grad.
So the king sent to Dothan horses, chariots, and a large army. They came by night and surrounded the city.
15 A ujutru sluga èovjeka Božijega ustavši izide, a to vojska oko grada i konji i kola. I reèe mu sluga: jaoh gospodaru, šta æemo sad?
When the servant of the man of God had risen early and gone outside, behold, a large army with horses and chariots surrounded the city. His servant said to him, “Oh, my master! What will we do?”
16 A on mu reèe: ne boj se, jer je više naših nego njihovijeh.
Elisha answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
17 I pomoli se Jelisije govoreæi: Gospode, otvori mu oèi da vidi. I Gospod otvori oèi momku, te vidje, a to gora puna konja i kola ognjenijeh oko Jelisija.
Elisha prayed and said, “Yahweh, I beg that you will open his eyes that he may see.” Then Yahweh opened the servant's eyes, and he saw. Behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha!
18 A kad poðoše Sirci k njemu, pomoli se Jelisije Gospodu i reèe: oslijepi ovaj narod. I oslijepi ih po rijeèi Jelisijevoj.
When the Arameans came down to him, Elisha prayed to Yahweh and said, “Strike these people blind, I ask you.” So Yahweh made them blind, just as Elisha had asked.
19 Tada im reèe Jelisije: nije ovo put, nije ovo grad; hodite za mnom i odvešæu vas èovjeku kojega tražite. I odvede ih u Samariju.
Then Elisha told the Arameans, “This is not the way, neither is this the city. Follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom you are looking for.” Then he led them to Samaria.
20 A kad doðoše u Samariju, reèe Jelisije: Gospode, otvori im oèi da vide. I Gospod im otvori oèi, i vidješe, a to bijahu usred Samarije.
It came about that when they had come into Samaria, Elisha said, “Yahweh, open the eyes of these men that they may see.” Yahweh opened their eyes and they saw, and behold, they were in the middle of the city of Samaria.
21 A car Izrailjev reèe Jelisiju kad ih ugleda: hoæu li biti, hoæu li biti, oèe moj?
The king of Israel said to Elisha, when he saw them, “My father, should I kill them? Should I kill them?”
22 A on reèe: nemoj biti; eda li æeš one pobiti koje zarobiš maèem svojim i lukom svojim? Iznesi im hljeba i vode neka jedu i piju, pa onda neka idu gospodaru svojemu.
Elisha answered, “You must not kill them. Would you kill those whom you had taken captive with your sword and bow? Put bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.”
23 I ugotovi im gozbu veliku, te jedoše i piše; pa ih otpusti, a oni otidoše gospodaru svojemu; i od tada ne dolaziše èete Sirske u zemlju Izrailjevu.
So the king prepared much food for them, and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went back to their master. Those bands of Aramean soldiers did not return for a long time into the land of Israel.
24 A poslije toga Ven-Adad car Sirski skupi svu vojsku svoju, i izide i opkoli Samariju.
Later after this Ben Hadad king of Aram gathered all his army and attacked Samaria and besieged it.
25 I nasta velika glad u Samariji, jer gle, bješe opkoljena toliko da glava magareæa bijaše za osamdeset sikala srebra, a èetvrt kava golubinjega kala za pet sikala srebra.
So there was a great famine in Samaria. Behold, they besieged it until a donkey's head was sold for eighty pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.
26 I kad car iðaše po zidovima, jedna žena povika k njemu govoreæi: pomagaj, care gospodaru!
As the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, a woman cried to him, saying, “Help, my master, king.”
27 A on reèe: Gospod ti ne pomaže, kako æu ti ja pomoæi? s gumna li, ili iz kace?
He said, “If Yahweh does not help you, how can I help you? Is there anything coming from the threshing floor or winepress?”
28 Još joj reèe car: što ti je? A ona reèe: ova žena reèe mi: daj sina svoga da ga pojedemo danas, a sjutra æemo pojesti moga sina.
The king continued, “What is troubling you?” She answered, “This woman said to me, 'Give your son so that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.'”
29 I skuhasmo sina mojega i pojedosmo ga, a sjutradan rekoh joj: daj sina svojega da ga pojedemo. Ali ona sakri svoga sina.
So we boiled my son and ate him, and I said to her on the next day, “Give your son that we may eat him, but she has hidden her son.”
30 A kad car èu rijeèi ženine, razdrije haljine svoje; i kad iðaše po zidu, vidje narod gdje kostrijet bijaše ozdo na tijelu njegovu.
So when the king heard the words of the woman, he tore his clothes (now he was passing by on the wall), and the people looked and saw that he had sackcloth underneath, against his skin.
31 Tada reèe car: tako da mi uèini Bog i tako da doda, ako glava Jelisija sina Safatova ostane danas na njemu.
Then he said, “May God do so to me, and more also, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on him today.”
32 A Jelisije sjeðaše u svojoj kuæi, i starješine sjeðahu kod njega. I posla car jednoga od onijeh što stajahu pred njim; a dok još ne doðe poslani k njemu, on reèe starješinama: vidite li gdje onaj krvnièki sin posla da mi otsijeèe glavu? Gledajte kad doðe poslani, zakljuèajte vrata, i odbijte ga od vrata; eto, i bahat nogu gospodara njegova za njim.
But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. The king sent a man from before him, but when the messenger came to Elisha, he said to the elders, “See how this son of a murderer has sent to take away my head? Look, when the messenger comes, shut the door, and hold the door shut against him. Is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?”
33 I dok još govoraše s njima, gle, poslani doðe k njemu, i reèe; gle, ovo je zlo od Gospoda; èemu æu se još nadati od Gospoda?
While he was still talking with them, behold, the messenger came down to him. The king had said, “Behold, this trouble comes from Yahweh. Why should I wait for Yahweh any longer?”
