2 Kralji 4

1 Torej tam je neka ženska, izmed žena preroških sinov, zaklicala k Elizeju, rekoč: »Tvoj služabnik, moj soprog, je mrtev, in ti veš, da se je tvoj služabnik bal Gospoda in prišel je upnik, da bi si moja dva sinova k sebi vzel za sužnja.«

Now a wife from among the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, "Your servant my husband is dead, and you know that your servant feared the LORD, but the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be his slaves."

2 Elizej ji je rekel: »Kaj naj storim zate? Povej mi, kaj imaš v hiši?« Rekla je: »Tvoja pomočnica nima v hiši ničesar razen lonca olja.«

Then Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your servant has nothing in the house, except a small jar of oil."

3 Potem je rekel: »Pojdi, izposodi si posode od vseh svojih sosed, prazne posode. Ne izposodi si jih malo.

Then he said, "Go, ask for containers from outside, from all your neighbors, empty containers.

4 Ko vstopiš noter, boš za seboj in za svojima sinovoma zaprla vrata in izlivala v vse tiste posode in tisto, ki je polna, boš postavila na stran.«

Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these containers, and you are to set each one aside when it is full."

5 Tako je odšla od njega in za seboj in za svojima sinovoma, ki sta k njej prinesla posode, zaprla vrata in ona je izlivala.

So she left him and shut the door behind herself and her sons; they kept bringing her containers, and she kept pouring.

6 Pripetilo se je, ko so bile posode polne, da je svojemu sinu rekla: »Še mi prinesi posodo.« Rekel ji je: »Nobene posode ni več.« In olje se je ustavilo.

Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, "Bring me another container." But he said to her, "There aren't any more." Then the oil stopped flowing.

7 Potem je prišla in povedala Božjemu možu. Rekel je: »Pojdi, prodaj olje in poplačaj svoj dolg in od preostanka živite ti in tvoja otroka.«

Then she came and told the man of God, and he said, "Go, sell the oil and pay your debt, and you and your sons can live on the rest."

8 Zgodilo se je na nek dan, da je Elizej odšel v Šuném, kjer je bila plemenita ženska; in ta ga je primorala, da jé kruh. In to je bilo tako, da tako pogosto, kot je šel mimo, se je obrnil tja, da bi jedel kruh.

Now it happened one day that Elisha traveled to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman, who urged him to eat some food. so whenever he passed by, he would stop in there to eat some food.

9 Svojemu soprogu je rekla: »Glej torej, zaznavam, da je to sveti Božji mož, ki nenehno hodi mimo nas.

And she said to her husband, "Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God who often passes by us.

10 Narediva majhno sobo, prosim te, na zidu in tam zanj postavimo posteljo, mizo, stolček in svečnik. In zgodilo se bo, ko prihaja k nam, da se bo obrnil tja noter.«

Please, let's make a little room on the wall, and let's set up a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him there, so that whenever he comes to us, he can stay there."

11 Zgodilo se je na nek dan, da je prišel tja, se obrnil v sobo in se tam ulegel.

Now it happened one day he came there, and he turned into the upper room and rested.

12 Svojemu služabniku Gehazíju je rekel: »Pokliči to Šunémko.« Ko jo je ta poklical, je obstala pred njim.

And he said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite." So he called for her and she stood before him.

13 Rekel mu je: »Sedaj ji povej: ›Glej, hitela si za naju z vso to skrbjo. Kaj naj bo storjeno zate? Ali naj zate govorim kralju ali poveljniku vojske?‹« Odgovorila je: »Prebivam med svojim lastnim ljudstvom.«

And he said to him, "Say now to her, 'Look, you have gone to all this trouble for us. What can I do for you? Can I put in a good word for you to the king, or to the commander of the army?'" She answered, "I have a home among my own people."

14 Rekel je: »Kaj naj bo potem storjeno zanjo?« Gehazí je odgovoril: »Resnično, ona nima otroka in njen soprog je star.«

So he said, "What then can I do for her?" And Gehazi replied, "Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old."

15 Rekel je: »Pokliči jo.« Ko jo je poklical, je obstala med vrati.

Then he said, "Call her." And when he had called her, she stood in the doorway.

16 Rekel je: »Okoli tega obdobja, glede na čas življenja, boš objemala sina.« Rekla je: »Ne, moj gospod, Božji mož, ne laži svoji pomočnici.«

And he said, "At this season, when the time comes around, you will be holding a son." And she said, "No, my lord, man of God, do not lie to your servant."

17 Ženska je spočela in rodila sina v tistem obdobju, ki ji ga je Elizej povedal, glede na čas življenja.

But the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season, when the time came around, just as Elisha had said to her.

18 Ko je otrok postal večji, se je nekega dne zgodilo, da je odšel ven k svojemu očetu, k žanjcem.

And the child grew and it happened one day that he went out to his father to the harvest workers.

19 Svojemu očetu je rekel: »Moja glava, moja glava.« In ta je rekel mladeniču: »Odnesi ga k njegovi materi.«

And he said to his father, "My head, my head." And he said to his servant, "Carry him to his mother."

20 Ko ga je ta vzel in ga privedel k njegovi materi, je do opoldneva sedel na njenih kolenih, potem pa je umrl.

And when he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her lap until noon, and died.

21 Vzdignila se je, ga položila na posteljo Božjega moža, zaprla vrata za njim in odšla ven.

Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God and shut the door behind him and left.

22 Poklicala je k svojemu soprogu in rekla: »Pošlji mi, prosim te, enega izmed mladeničev in enega izmed oslov, da lahko stečem k Božjemu možu in ponovno pridem nazaj.«

Then she called to her husband and said, "Please send me one of the servants and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and then return."

23 Rekel je: »Čemu hočeš iti k njemu danes? Ni niti mlaj niti šabat.« Rekla je: » To bo dobro.«

But he said, "Why would you want to see him today? It is not the new moon or Sabbath." And she said, "It's alright."

24 Potem je osedlala osla in svojemu mladeniču rekla: »Požêni in pojdi naprej. Svojega jahanja ne upočasnjuj zaradi mene, razen če ti ne zapovem.«

Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, "Lead on; do not slow down for me unless I tell you."

25 Tako je odšla in prišla k Božjemu možu na goro Karmel. Pripetilo se je, ko jo je Božji mož od daleč zagledal, da je svojemu služabniku Gehazíju rekel: »Glej, tam je ta Šunémka.

So she went and came to the man of God at Mount Carmel. So it happened when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, "Look, there is the Shunammite.

26 Steci sedaj, prosim te, da jo srečaš in ji reci: › Ali je dobro s teboj? Ali je dobro s tvojim soprogom? Ali je dobro z otrokom?‹« Odgovorila je: »Dobro je.«

Please run now to meet her and ask her, 'Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?'" And she answered, "It is well."

27 Ko pa je prišla k Božjemu možu na hrib, se je oklenila njegovih stopal. Toda Gehazí se je približal, da jo pahne proč. Božji mož pa je rekel: »Pusti jo; kajti njena duša je zagrenjena znotraj nje in Gospod je to skril pred menoj in mi ni povedal.«

But when she came to the man of God to the mountain, she grabbed hold of his feet. And Gehazi came near to push her away, but the man of God said, "Leave her alone, for she is in severe anguish, and the LORD has hidden it from me and has not told me."

28 Potem je rekla: »Ali sem si jaz želela sina od svojega gospoda?« Ali nisem rekla: »Ne zavajaj me?«

Then she said, "Did I ask a son from my lord? Did I not say, 'Do not mislead me?'"

29 Potem je rekel Gehazíju: »Opaši svoja ledja in v svojo roko vzemi mojo palico in pojdi svojo pot. Če srečaš kateregakoli človeka, ga ne pozdravi in če kdorkoli pozdravi tebe, mu ravno tako ne odgovori, in mojo palico položi na otrokov obraz.«

Then he said to Gehazi, "Tuck your cloak into your belt, and take my staff in your hand, and go. If you meet anyone, do not greet him, and if anyone greets you, do not reply. And lay my staff on the face of the child."

30 Otrokova mati je rekla: » Kakor Gospod živi in kakor tvoja duša živi, te ne bom zapustila.« Vstal je in ji sledil.

But the mother of the child said, "As the LORD lives and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." So he arose and followed her.

31 Gehazí je šel pred njima in palico položil na otrokov obraz, toda ni bilo niti glasu niti uslišanja. Zatorej je ponovno odšel, da ga sreča in mu povedal, rekoč: »Otrok se ni prebudil.«

Now Gehazi went on ahead of them and placed the staff on the face of the child, but there was no sound or response. Therefore he came back to meet him and told him, saying, "The child did not wake up."

32 Ko je Elizej prišel v hišo, glej, je bil otrok mrtev in položen na njegovo posteljo.

When Elisha arrived at the house, look, the child was dead, lying on his bed.

33 Vstopil je torej in zaprl vrata za njima ter molil h Gospodu.

So he went in and shut the door on the two of them and prayed to the LORD.

34 Povzpel se je in legel na otroka ter svoja usta položil na njegova usta in svoje oči na njegove oči in svoje roke na njegove roke. Raztegnil se je nad otrokom in otrokovo meso se je ogrelo.

Then he got up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands, and he stretched himself upon him, and the body of the child grew warm.

35 Potem se je vrnil in po hiši hodil sem ter tja, se povzpel in sebe raztegnil nad njim. Otrok je sedemkrat kihnil in otrok je odprl svoje oči.

Then he returned and walked in the house once back and forth, and went up and stretched himself upon him, and the child sneezed seven times and the child opened his eyes.

36 Poklical je Gehazíja in rekel: »Pokliči to Šunémko.« Tako jo je poklical. Ko je vstopila k njemu, je rekel: »Vzemi svojega sina.«

Then he called to Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite." So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, "Pick up your son."

37 Potem je vstopila, padla k njegovim stopalom, se priklonila do tal, vzela svojega sina in odšla ven.

Then she came in and fell at his feet and bowed herself to the ground. Then she picked up her son and left.

38 Elizej je ponovno prišel v Gilgál. Tam pa je bilo v deželi pomanjkanje. Sinovi prerokov so sedeli pred njim. Svojemu služabniku je rekel: »Pristavi velik lonec in za sinove prerokov zavri juho.«

Now Elisha came again to Gilgal, while there was a famine in the land. And the sons of the prophets were sitting before him, and he said to his servant, "Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets."

39 Nekdo je odšel na polje, da nabere zelišča in našel divjo trto in od nje nabral polno naročje divjih buč in prišel in jih zrezal v lonec juhe, kajti niso jih poznali.

Then one of them went out into the field to gather herbs and found a wild vine, and gathered as many of its gourds as his garment would hold, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew, for he was unaware what it was.

40 Tako so nalili, da bi možje jedli. Pripetilo pa se je, ko so jedli juho, da so zavpili in rekli: »Oh ti Božji mož, smrt je v loncu.« In tega niso mogli jesti.

So they poured out for the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating of the stew, that they cried out, and said, "Man of God, there is death in the pot." And they could not eat it.

41 Toda rekel je: »Torej prinesite moko.« Vrgel jo je v lonec in rekel: »Nalij za ljudstvo, da bodo lahko jedli.« In v loncu ni bilo nič škodljivega.

But he said, "Bring some flour." And he threw it into the pot and said, "Pour it out for the people, that they may eat." And there was no harm in the pot.

42 Prišel je mož iz Báal Šalíša in Božjemu možu prinesel kruh od prvih sadov, dvajset ječmenovih hlebov in polno žitno klasje v luščinah. Rekel je: »Dajte ljudstvu, da bodo lahko jedli.«

Now a man from Baal Shalishah came and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and fresh ears of grain in his sack. And he said, "Give to the people, that they may eat."

43 Njegov strežnik pa je rekel: »Kaj, mar naj bi to postavil pred sto mož?« Ponovno je rekel: »Daj ljudstvu, da bodo lahko jedli, kajti tako govori Gospod: › Od tega bodo jedli in še bo ostalo.‹«

But his servant said, "What, should I set this before a hundred men?" So he said, "Give them to the people so that they may eat, for thus says the LORD, 'They will eat, and will have some left over.'"

44 Tako je to postavil prednje in so jedli in od tega pustili, glede na Gospodovo besedo.

So he set it before them, and they ate, and had some left over, according to the word of the LORD.
