2 Kralji 1
1 Potem se je, po Ahábovi smrti, Moáb uprl zoper Izraela.
And Moab transgresses against Israel after the death of Ahab,
2 Ahazjá je padel dol skozi mrežo v svoji gornji sobi, ki je bila v Samariji in je bil bolan. Poslal je poslance in jim rekel: »Pojdite, poizvedite od Báal Zebúba, boga v Ekrónu, ali si bom opomogel od te bolezni.«
and Ahaziah falls through the lattice in his upper chamber that [is] in Samaria, and is sick, and sends messengers, and says to them, “Go, inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron if I recover from this sickness.”
3 Toda Gospodov angel je rekel Tišbéjcu Eliju: »Vstani, pojdi gor, da srečaš poslance samarijskega kralja in jim reci: › Mar ni zato, ker ni Boga v Izraelu, da greste povpraševat ekrónskega boga Báal Zebúba?‹
And a messenger of YHWH has spoken to Elijah the Tishbite, “Rise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and speak to them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are going to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron?
4 Zdaj torej tako govori Gospod: ›Ne boš prišel dol iz svoje postelje, na katero si zlezel, temveč boš zagotovo umrl.‹« In Elija je odšel.
And therefore, thus said YHWH: The bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly die”; and Elijah goes on.
5 Ko so se poslanci obrnili nazaj k njemu, jim je rekel: »Zakaj ste se torej obrnili nazaj?«
And the messengers return to him, and he says to them, “What [is] this—you have turned back!”
6 Rekli so mu: »Vzdignil se je mož, da nas sreča in nam rekel: ›Pojdite, ponovno se obrnite h kralju, ki vas je poslal in mu recite: ›Tako govori Gospod: › Mar ni zato, ker ni Boga v Izraelu, da pošiljaš povpraševat ekrónskega boga Báal Zebúba?‹ Zato ne boš prišel dol iz svoje postelje, na katero si zlezel, temveč boš zagotovo umrl.‹«
And they say to him, “A man has come up to meet us and says to us, Go, return to the king who sent you, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH: Is it because there is not a God in Israel—you are sending to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up, you do not come down from it, for you certainly die.”
7 Rekel jim je: »Kakšne vrste mož je bil ta, ki se je vzdignil, da vas sreča in vam je povedal te besede?«
And he says to them, “What [is] the fashion of the man who has come up to meet you, and speaks these words to you?”
8 Odgovorili so mu: » Bil je kosmat človek in z usnjenim pasom opasan okoli ledij.« Rekel je: »To je Tišbéjec Elija.«
And they say to him, “A hairy man, and a girdle of skin girt around his loins”; and he says, “He [is] Elijah the Tishbite.”
9 Potem je kralj poslal k njemu petdesetnika z njegovimi petdesetimi. Ta je odšel gor k njemu, in glej, sedel je na vrhu hriba. Nagovoril ga je: »Božji mož, kralj je rekel: ›Pridi dol.‹«
And he sends to him a head of fifty and his fifty, and he goes up to him (and behold, he is sitting on the top of the hill), and he speaks to him, “O man of God, the king has spoken, Come down.”
10 Elija je odgovoril in petdesetniku rekel: »Če sem Božji mož, potem naj dol z neba pride ogenj in použije tebe in tvojih petdeset.« Dol z neba je prišel ogenj in použil njega in njegovih petdeset.
And Elijah answers and speaks to the head of the fifty, “And if I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire comes down from the heavens and consumes him and his fifty.
11 Ponovno je k njemu poslal drugega petdesetnika z njegovimi petdesetimi. Ta je odgovoril in mu rekel: »Oh Božji mož, tako je rekel kralj: ›Pridi hitro dol.‹«
And he turns and sends to him another head of fifty and his fifty, and he answers and speaks to him, “O man of God, thus said the king: Hurry, come down.”
12 Elija je odgovoril in jim rekel: »Če sem Božji mož, naj dol z neba pride ogenj in použije tebe in tvojih petdeset.« In ogenj od Boga je prišel z neba in použil njega in njegovih petdeset.
And Elijah answers and speaks to them, “If I [am] a man of God, fire comes down from the heavens and consumes you and your fifty”; and fire of God comes down from the heavens and consumes him and his fifty.
13 Ponovno je poslal tretjega petdesetnika z njegovimi petdesetimi. Tretji petdesetnik je odšel gor, prišel in pred Elijem padel na kolena, ga rotil in mu rekel: »Oh Božji mož, prosim te, naj bodo moje življenje in življenja teh petdesetih tvojih služabnikov dragocena v tvojih očeh.
And he turns and sends a third head of fifty and his fifty, and the third head of fifty goes up, and comes in, and bows on his knees before Elijah, and makes supplication to him, and speaks to him, “O man of God, please let my soul and the soul of your servants—these fifty—be precious in your eyes.
14 Glej, prišel je ogenj dol z neba in sežgal dva poveljnika prejšnjih petdesetih z njunimi petdesetimi. Zatorej naj bo moje življenje sedaj dragoceno v tvojih očeh.«
Behold, fire has come down from the heavens and consumes the two heads of the former fifties and their fifties; and now, let my soul be precious in your eyes.”
15 Gospodov angel je rekel Eliju: »Z njim pojdi dol. Ne boj se ga.« In vstal je in z njim odšel dol h kralju.
And a messenger of YHWH speaks to Elijah, “Go down with him, do not be afraid of him”; and he rises and goes down with him to the king,
16 Rekel mu je: »Tako govori Gospod: ›Ker kakor si poslal poslance, da poizvejo od ekrónskega boga Báal Zebúba, mar ni to zato, ker ni Boga v Izraelu, da bi povprašal po njegovi besedi? Zato ne boš prišel dol iz postelje, na katero si zlezel, temveč boš zagotovo umrl.‹«
and speaks to him, “Thus said YHWH: Because that you have sent messengers to inquire of Ba‘al-Zebub god of Ekron—is it because there is not a God in Israel to inquire of His word? Therefore, the bed to where you have gone up—you do not come down from it, for you certainly die.”
17 Tako je umrl glede na Gospodovo besedo, ki jo je Elija govoril. Namesto njega je zakraljeval Jehorám, v drugem letu Józafatovega sina Jehoráma, Judovega kralja, ker ni imel sina.
And he dies, according to the word of YHWH that Elijah spoke, and Jehoram reigns in his stead, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, for he had no son.
18 Torej preostala izmed Ahazjájevih dejanj, ki jih je storil, mar niso zapisana v kroniški knjigi Izraelovih kraljev?
And the rest of the matters of Ahaziah that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
