2 Kralji 13
1 V triindvajsetem letu Joáša, Ahazjájevega sina, Judovega kralja, je nad Izraelom, v Samariji, začel kraljevati Jehújev sin Joaház in kraljeval je sedemnajst let.
Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, became king of Israel in the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, son of Ahaziah, king of Judah. He reigned in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 Počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh in sledil grehom Nebátovega sina Jerobeáma, ki je Izraela pripravil, da greši; od tega se ni odvrnil.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and followed the sins that Jeroboam son of Nebat, had made Israel commit; he did not end them.
3 Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Izrael in vse njihove dni jih je izročil v roko sirskega kralja Hazaéla in v roko Hazaélovega sina Ben Hadáda.
So the Lord was angry with Israel, and he repeatedly allowed them to be defeated by Hazael, king of Aram, and his son Ben-hadad.
4 Joaház je iskal Gospoda in Gospod mu je prisluhnil, kajti videl je zatiranje Izraela, ker jih je zatiral sirski kralj.
Jehoahaz asked the Lord for help, and the Lord responded to his request because he saw how badly the king of Aram was treating Israel.
5 (In Gospod je dal Izraelu rešitelja, tako da so odšli izpod roke Sircev in Izraelovi otroci so prebivali v svojih šotorih kakor poprej.
The Lord gave Israel someone who would save them so they no longer were under Aramean rule. Then the Israelites were able to go back to living in safety as before.
6 Vendar se niso odvrnili od grehov Jerobeámove hiše, ki je Izraela primoral grešiti, temveč so hodili v njih in ašere so ostale tudi v Samariji.
Even so they did not end the sins that the house of Jeroboam had made Israel commit—they continued to follow them. The Asherah idol still stood in Samaria.
7 Niti ni pustil od ljudstva Joaházu [nikogar] razen petdesetih konjenikov, desetih bojnih voz in deset tisoč pešcev, kajti sirski kralj jih je uničil in jih z mlatenjem naredil podobne prahu.
All that was left of Jehoahaz's army were fifty horsemen, ten chariots, and ten thousand soldiers, for the king of Aram had destroyed the rest, turning them into dust like that when grain is threshed.
8 Torej preostala izmed Joaházovih dejanj in vse, kar je storil in njegova moč, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Izraelovih kraljev?
The rest of what happened in Jehoahaz's reign, all he did, and his great achievements are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
9 Joaház je zaspal s svojimi očeti in pokopali so ga v Samariji in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Jehoáš.
Jehoahaz died and was buried in Samaria. His son Jehoash succeeded him as king.
10 V sedemintridesetem letu Judovega kralja Joáša je nad Izraelom v Samariji začel kraljevati Joaházov sin Jehoáš in kraljeval je šestnajst let.
Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, became king of Israel in Samaria in the thirty-seventh year of the reign of King Joash of Judah, and he reigned for sixteen years.
11 Počel je to, kar je bilo zlo v Gospodovih očeh. Ni se oddvojil od vseh grehov Nebátovega sina Jerobeáma, ki je Izraela pripravil, da greši, temveč je hodil v njih.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and did not end all the sins that Jeroboam, son of Nebat, had made Israel commit—he continued to follow them.
12 Ostala Jehoáševa dela in vse, kar je storil in njegova moč, s katero se je boril zoper Judovega kralja Amacjája, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Izraelovih kraljev?
The rest of what happened in Jehoash's reign, all he did, and his great achievements such as his war against Amaziah, king of Judah, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
13 Jehoáš je zaspal s svojimi očeti in Jerobeám je sédel na njegov prestol in Jehoáš je bil z Izraelovimi kralji pokopan v Samariji.
Jehoash died, and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Torej Elizej je postal bolan od svoje bolezni, od katere je [tudi] umrl. Izraelov kralj Jehoáš je prišel dol k njemu, jokal nad njegovim obrazom in rekel: »Oh moj oče, moj oče, Izraelov bojni voz in njegovi konjeniki.«
Elisha had become ill with a disease that would eventually kill him. Jehoash, king of Israel, went to visit him, and wept over him, saying, “My father, my father, the chariots and the horsemen of Israel!”
15 Elizej mu je rekel: »Vzemi lok in puščice.« In vzel si je lok in puščice.
Elisha told him, “Find a bow and some arrows.” So Jehoash found a bow and some arrows.
16 Izraelovemu kralju je rekel: »Svojo roko položi na lok.« Svojo roko je položil nanj in Elizej je svoje roke položil na kraljeve roke.
Then Elisha said to the king of Israel, “Pick up the bow.” So the king picked up the bow. Elisha placed his hands on the king's hands.
17 Rekel je: »Odpri okno proti vzhodu.« Odprl ga je. Potem je Elizej rekel: »Streljaj.« In je izstrelil. Rekel je: »Puščica Gospodove osvoboditve in puščica osvoboditve od Sirije, kajti Sirce boš udaril v Aféku, dokler jih ne boš použil.«
“Open the east window,” he told him. So the king opened it and Elisha said, “Shoot!” So he fired an arrow. Then Elisha explained, “This is the Lord's victory arrow representing the arrow of victory over the Arameans. You will attack the Arameans in Aphek and finish them off.”
18 Rekel je: »Vzemi puščice.« Vzel jih je. Izraelovemu kralju je rekel: »Udarjaj ob tla.« Ta je trikrat udaril in obstal.
Then Elisha said, “Pick up the arrows!” So he picked them up. Elisha told the king of Israel, “Hit the ground with them!” He hit the ground three times, and then stopped.
19 Božji mož je bil nad njim ogorčen in rekel: »Udariti bi moral petkrat ali šestkrat, potem bi Sirijo udarjal, dokler je ne bi použil, medtem ko boš sedaj Sirijo udaril samo trikrat.«
The man of God got angry with him, telling him, “You should have hit the ground five or six times. Then you would have attacked the Arameans until you had completely destroyed them. But now you will only attack the Arameans three times.”
20 Elizej je umrl in so ga pokopali. In v začetku leta so v deželo vdrle čete Moábcev.
Elisha died and was buried. Raiders from the country of Moab used to invade Israel every spring.
21 Pripetilo se je, ko so [nekega] moža pokopavali, glej, da so zagledali četo mož in moža odvrgli v Elizejev mavzolej. Ko je bil mož spuščen dol in se dotaknil Elizejevih kosti, je oživel in stopil na svoja stopala.
On time some Israelites were burying a man when suddenly they saw some raiders coming, so they quickly threw the man into Elisha's tomb. As soon as he touched Elisha's bones, the man came back to life and stood up.
22 Toda sirski kralj Hazaél je vse Joaházove dni zatiral Izraela.
Hazael, king of Aram, caused problems for Israel through all Jehoahaz's reign.
23 Gospod pa jim je bil milostljiv in imel sočutje do njih in spoštovanje do njih zaradi svoje zaveze z Abrahamom, Izakom in Jakobom in jih ni želel uničiti niti jih še ni vrgel izpred svoje prisotnosti.
But the Lord graciously helped them and was kind to them. He looked after them because of his agreement with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Even to this day he's been unwilling to destroy them or to throw them out of his presence.
24 Tako je sirski kralj Hazaél umrl in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Ben Hadád.
When Hazael, king of Aram, died, his son Ben-hadad succeeded him as king.
25 Joaházov sin Jehoáš je mesta ponovno vzel iz rok Hazaélovega sina Ben Hadáda, ki jih je ta z vojno vzel iz roke njegovega očeta Joaháza. Jehoáš ga je trikrat premagal in povrnil Izraelova mesta.
Then Jehoash, son of Jehoahaz, recovered from Ben-hadad son of Hazael, the towns that Hazael had captured from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash defeated Ben-hadad three times, and so recaptured the Israelite towns.
