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.

In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned 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.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

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.

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael, continually.

4 Joaház je iskal Gospoda in Gospod mu je prisluhnil, kajti videl je zatiranje Izraela, ker jih je zatiral sirski kralj.

And Jehoahaz besought the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him; for He saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Aram oppressed them. —

5 (In Gospod je dal Izraelu rešitelja, tako da so odšli izpod roke Sircev in Izraelovi otroci so prebivali v svojih šotorih kakor poprej.

And the LORD gave Israel a deliverer, so that they went out from under the hand of the Arameans; and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as beforetime.

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.

Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, wherewith he made Israel to sin, but walked therein; and there remained the Asherah also 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.

For there was not left to Jehoahaz of the people save fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Aram destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.

8 Torej preostala izmed Joaházovih dejanj in vse, kar je storil in njegova moč, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Izraelovih kraljev?

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the 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.

And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his stead.

10 V sedemintridesetem letu Judovega kralja Joáša je nad Izraelom v Samariji začel kraljevati Joaházov sin Jehoáš in kraljeval je šestnajst let.

In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned 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.

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin; but he walked therein.

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?

Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the 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.

And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne; and Joash 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.«

Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he was to die; and Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over him, and said: 'My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof!'

15 Elizej mu je rekel: »Vzemi lok in puščice.« In vzel si je lok in puščice.

And Elisha said unto him: 'Take bow and arrows'; and he took unto him bow and 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.

And he said to the king of Israel: 'Put thy hand upon the bow'; and he put his hand upon it. And Elisha laid his hands upon 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.«

And he said: 'Open the window eastward'; and he opened it. Then Elisha said: 'Shoot'; and he shot. And he said: 'The LORD'S arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory against Aram; for thou shalt smite the Arameans in Aphek, till thou have consumed them.'

18 Rekel je: »Vzemi puščice.« Vzel jih je. Izraelovemu kralju je rekel: »Udarjaj ob tla.« Ta je trikrat udaril in obstal.

And he said: 'Take the arrows'; and he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel: 'Smite upon the ground'; and he smote thrice, and stayed.

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.«

And the man of God was wroth with him, and said: 'Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Aram till thou hadst consumed it; whereas now thou shalt smite Aram but thrice.'

20 Elizej je umrl in so ga pokopali. In v začetku leta so v deželo vdrle čete Moábcev.

And Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites used to invade the land at the coming in of the year.

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.

And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha; and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.

22 Toda sirski kralj Hazaél je vse Joaházove dni zatiral Izraela.

And Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.

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 was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither hath He cast them from His presence until now.

24 Tako je sirski kralj Hazaél umrl in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Ben Hadád.

And Hazael king of Aram died; and Ben-hadad his son reigned in his stead.

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.

And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Ben-hadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash smite him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
