< 2 Kralji 9 >

1 Prerok Elizej je poklical enega izmed preroških otrok in mu rekel: »Opaši svoja ledja, v svojo roko vzemi to stekleničko olja in pojdi v Ramót Gileád
Now the prophet Elisha called one of the sons of the prophets, and he said to him: “Gird your waist, and take this little bottle of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.
2 in ko prideš tja, tam poglej za Jehújem, sinom Józafata, Nimšíjevim sinom in vstopi in naj vstane izmed svojih bratov in ga odvedi v notranjo sobo.
And when you arrive in that place, you will see Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi. And upon entering, you shall raise him up from the midst of his brothers, and you shall lead him into an inner room.
3 Potem vzemi stekleničko olja, ga izlij na njegovo glavo in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mazilil sem te za kralja nad Izraelom.‹‹ Potem odpri vrata, zbeži in ne obotavljaj se.«
And taking the little bottle of oil, you shall pour it upon his head, and you shall say: ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’ And you shall open the door and flee. And you shall not remain in that place.”
4 Tako je mladenič, mladi mož prerok, odšel do Ramót Gileáda.
Therefore, the young man, a servant of the prophet, went away to Ramoth Gilead.
5 Ko je prišel, glej, so poveljniki vojske sedeli in rekel je: »Naročilo imam zate, oh poveljnik.« Jehú je rekel: »Za katerega izmed nas vseh?« Rekel je: »Zate, oh poveljnik.«
And he entered that place, and behold, the leaders of the army were sitting there, and he said, “I have a word for you, O prince.” And Jehu said, “For which one among us all?” And he said, “For you, O prince.”
6 Ta je vstal in odšel v hišo in na njegovo glavo je izlil olje ter mu rekel: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Mazilil sem te za kralja nad Gospodovim ljudstvom, celó nad Izraelom.
And he rose up and entered into the room. And he poured the oil on his head, and he said: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘I have anointed you as king over Israel, the people of the Lord.
7 Udaril boš hišo svojega gospodarja Ahába, da lahko maščujem kri svojih služabnikov prerokov in kri vseh Gospodovih služabnikov pri Jezabelini roki.
And you shall strike down the house of Ahab, your lord. And I will avenge the blood of my servants, the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, from the hand of Jezebel.
8 Kajti celotna Ahábova hiša bo uničena in od Ahába bom iztrebil tistega, ki lula proti zidu in tistega, ki je zaprt in je ostal v Izraelu.
And I will destroy the entire house of Ahab. And I will cause to pass away from Ahab, whatever urinates against a wall, and whatever is lame, and whatever is least in Israel.
9 Ahábovo hišo bom naredil podobno hiši Nebátovega sina Jerobeáma in podobno hiši Ahíjevega sina Bašája
And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha, the son of Ahijah.
10 in psi bodo pojedli Jezabelo na jezreélskem deležu in nikogar ne bo, da bi jo pokopal.‹« In odprl je vrata ter zbežal.
Also, the dogs will consume Jezebel, in the field of Jezreel. Neither will there be anyone who may bury her.’” And then he opened the door, and he fled.
11 Potem je Jehú prišel k služabnikom svojega gospoda in nekdo mu je rekel: » Ali je vse dobro? Zakaj je ta nori človek prišel k tebi?« Rekel jim je: »Poznate moža in njegovo govorjenje.«
Then Jehu went out to the servants of his lord. And they said to him: “Is everything well? Why has this insane man come to you?” And he said to them, “You know the man, and what he said.”
12 Rekli so: » To je laž. Povej nam torej.« Rekel je: »Tako in tako mi je rekel, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mazili sem te za kralja nad Izraelom.‹«
But they responded, “That is false; instead, you should tell us.” And he said to them, “He said to me these certain things, and he said, ‘Thus says the Lord: I have anointed you as king over Israel.’”
13 Potem so pohiteli in vsak mož je vzel svojo obleko in jo položil pod njega na vrhu stopnic in zatrobili so s šofarji, rekoč: »Jehú je kralj.«
And so they hurried away. And each one, taking his cloak, placed it under his feet, in the manner of a seat for judgment. And they sounded the trumpet, and they said: “Jehu reigns!”
14 Tako je Jehú, Józafatov sin, Nimšíjev sin, koval zaroto zoper Joráma. (Torej Jorám se je zadrževal v Ramót Gileádu, on in ves Izrael, zaradi sirskega kralja Hazaéla.
Then Jehu, the son of Jehoshaphat, the son of Nimshi, conspired against Joram. Now Joram had besieged Ramoth Gilead, he and all of Israel, against Hazael, the king of Syria.
15 Toda kralj Jorám se je vrnil, da bi bil v Jezreélu ozdravljen ran, ki so mu jih zadali Sirci, ko se je bojeval s sirskim kraljem Hazaélom.) Jehú je rekel: »Če tako mislite, potem naj nihče ne gre naprej niti naj ne zbeži iz mesta, da bi šel to povedat v Jezreél.«
And he had returned, so that he might be cured at Jezreel, because of his wounds. For the Syrians had struck him, while he was fighting against Hazael, the king of Syria. And Jehu said, “If it pleases you, let no one depart, fleeing from the city; otherwise he may go and give a report in Jezreel.”
16 Tako je Jehú jahal na bojnem vozu in odšel v Jezreél, kajti tam je ležal Jorám. In Judov kralj Ahazjá je prišel dol, da vidi Joráma.
And he climbed up and set out for Jezreel, because Joram was sick there, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, had gone down to visit Joram.
17 Tam je stal stražar na stolpu v Jezreélu in ogledoval Jehújevo skupino, medtem ko je prihajala in rekel: »Vidim skupino.« Jorám je rekel: »Vzemi konjenika in ga pošlji, da jih sreča in naj reče: › Ali je mir?‹«
And so the watchman, who was standing upon the tower of Jezreel, saw the crowd of Jehu arriving, and he said, “I see a crowd.” And Joram said: “Take a chariot, and send to meet them. And those who go should say, ‘Is everything well?’”
18 Tako je nekdo odšel na konjskem hrbtu, da ga sreča in rekel: »Tako govori kralj: › Je to mir?‹« Jehú je rekel: »Kaj imaš opraviti z mirom? Obrni se za menoj.« Stražar je povedal, rekoč: »Poslanec je prišel do njih, toda ne vrača se.«
Therefore, he who had climbed into the chariot went away to meet him, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is everything peaceful?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.” Also the watchman gave a report, saying, “The messenger went to them, but he did not return.”
19 Potem je poslal ven drugega, na konjskem hrbtu, ki je prišel k njim in rekel: »Tako govori kralj: › Ali je mir?‹« Jehú je odgovoril: »Kaj imaš opraviti z mirom? Obrni se za menoj.«
And then he sent a second chariot of horses. And he went to them, and he said, “The king says this: ‘Is there peace?’” And Jehu said: “What peace is there for you? Pass by and follow me.”
20 Stražar je povedal, rekoč: »Prišel je celo k njim, toda ne vrača se in vožnja je podobna vožnji Nimšíjevega sina Jehúja, kajti divje vozi.«
Then the watchman gave a report, saying: “He went all the way to them, but he did not return. But their advance is like the advance of Jehu, the son of Nimshi. For he advances precipitously.”
21 Jorám je rekel: »Pripravite.« In njegov bojni voz je bil pripravljen. Izraelov kralj Jorám in Judov kralj Ahazjá sta odšla ven, vsak na svojem bojnem vozu in odšla sta ven zoper Jehúja in ga srečala na deležu Jezreélca Nabóta.
And Joram said, “Yoke the chariot.” And they yoked his chariot. And Joram, the king of Israel, and Ahaziah, the king of Judah, departed, each in his chariot. And they went out to meet Jehu. And they met him in the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite.
22 Pripetilo se je, ko je Jorám zagledal Jehúja, da je rekel: » Ali je mir, Jehú?« Odgovoril je: »Kakšen mir, dokler je tako mnogo vlačugarstev in čaranj tvoje matere Jezabele?«
And when Joram had seen Jehu, he said, “Is there peace, Jehu?” And he responded: “What is peace? For still the fornications of your mother, Jezebel, and her many poisons, are thriving.”
23 Jorám je obrnil svoji roki, pobegnil in rekel Ahazjáju: » To je izdaja, oh Ahazjá.«
Then Joram turned his hand, and, fleeing, he said to Ahaziah, “Treachery, Ahaziah!”
24 Jehú je z vso svojo močjo napel lok in zadel Jehoráma med lopatici in puščica je izšla pri njegovem srcu in zgrudil se je na svoj bojni voz.
But Jehu bent his bow with his hand, and he struck Joram between the shoulders. And the arrow went through his heart, and immediately he fell in his chariot.
25 Potem je Jehú rekel svojemu poveljniku Bidkárju: »Poberi ga in vrzi ga na delež polja Jezreélca Nabóta, kajti spomni se, kako je Gospod nanj položil to breme, ko sva jaz in ti skupaj jahala za njegovim očetom Ahábom:
And Jehu said to Bidkar, his commander: “Take and cast him into the field of Naboth, the Jezreelite. For I remember, when you and I, sitting in a chariot, were following Ahab, this man’s father, that the Lord lifted this burden upon him, saying:
26 ›Zagotovo sem včeraj videl Nabótovo kri in kri njegovih sinov, govori Gospod, in jaz te bom poplačal na tem deležu, govori Gospod.‹ Sedaj ga torej vzemi in vrzi na kos zemlje, glede na Gospodovo besedo.«
‘Certainly, I will repay you in this field, says the Lord, for the blood of Naboth, and for the blood of his sons, which I saw yesterday, says the Lord.’ Therefore, take him now, and cast him into the field, in accord with the word of the Lord.”
27 Toda ko je Judov kralj Ahazjá to videl, je zbežal po poti vrtne hiše. Jehú je sledil za njim in rekel: »Udarite tudi njega na bojnem vozu.« Storili so tako ob vzponu na Gur, ki je poleg Jibleáma. In pobegnil je v Megído ter tam umrl.
But Ahaziah, the king of Judah, seeing this, fled along the way of the garden house. And Jehu pursued him, and he said, “Strike this one also in his chariot.” And they struck him on the ascent to Gur, which is beside Ibleam. But he fled into Megiddo, and he died there.
28 Njegovi služabniki so ga na bojnem vozu prenesli v Jeruzalem in ga pokopali v njegovem mavzoleju, z njegovimi očeti, v Davidovem mestu.
And his servants placed him upon his chariot, and they took him to Jerusalem. And they buried him in the sepulcher with his fathers, in the city of David.
29 V enajstem letu Ahábovega sina Joráma je nad Judom začel kraljevati Ahazjá.
In the eleventh year of Joram, the son of Ahab, Ahaziah reigned over Judah.
30 Ko je Jehú prišel v Jezreél, je Jezabela slišala o tem in si naličila svoj obraz, okrasila svojo glavo in pogledala skozi okno.
And Jehu went into Jezreel. But Jezebel, hearing of his arrival, painted her eyes with cosmetics, and adorned her head. And she watched through a window,
31 Ko je Jehú vstopil pri velikih vratih, je rekla: » Ali je imel Zimrí, ki je usmrtil svojega gospodarja, mir?«
as Jehu was entering through the gate. And she said, “Is it possible for there to be peace for Zimri, who killed his lord?”
32 Svoj obraz je povzdignil proti oknu in rekel: »Kdo je na moji strani? Kdo?« K njemu so pogledali dva ali trije evnuhi.
And Jehu lifted up his face to the window, and he said, “Who is this woman?” And two or three eunuchs bowed down before him.
33 Rekel je: »Vrzite jo dol.« Tako so jo vrgli dol in nekaj njene krvi je poškropilo zid in konje; in pomendral jo je pod stopalom.
And he said to them, “Throw her down with force.” And they threw her forcefully, and the wall was splattered with her blood, and the hoofs of the horses trampled her.
34 Ko je vstopil, je jedel, pil in rekel: »Pojdite, poglejte sedaj to prekleto žensko in jo pokopljite, kajti kraljeva hči je.«
And when he had entered, so that he might eat and drink, he said: “Go, and see to that cursed woman, and bury her. For she is the daughter of a king.”
35 Odšli so, da jo pokopljejo, toda niso našli od nje več kot lobanjo, stopala in dlani njenih rok.
But when they had gone, so that they might bury her, they found nothing but the skull, and the feet, and the ends of her hands.
36 Zato so ponovno prišli in mu povedali. Rekel je: »To je beseda od Gospoda, ki jo je govoril po svojem služabniku, Tišbéjcu Eliju, rekoč: ›V Jezreélovem deležu bodo psi jedli Jezabelino meso.
And returning, they reported to him. And Jehu said: “It is the word of the Lord, which he spoke through his servant, Elijah the Tishbite, saying: ‘In the field of Jezreel, the dogs will consume the flesh of Jezebel.
37 In Jezabelino truplo bo kakor iztrebek na obličju polja v Jezreélovem deležu, tako da ne bodo rekli: ›To je Jezabela.‹«
And the flesh of Jezebel will be like dung upon the face of the earth, in the field of Jezreel, so that those who pass by may say: Is this that same Jezebel?’”
