2 Kraljevima 13
1 Dvadeset i treće godine kraljevanja judejskog kralja Joaša, sina Ahazjina, postade Joahaz, sin Jehuov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji. Kraljevao je sedamnaest godina.
In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.
2 On je činio što je zlo u očima Jahvinim i poveo se za grijesima Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zavodio Izraela. Od njih nije odstupao.
He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He didn’t depart from it.
3 Tada Jahve uskipje gnjevom na Izraela i predade ga u ruke aramejskog kralja Hazaela i u ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, za sve ono vrijeme.
Yahweh’s anger burned against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
4 Ali je Joahaz ublažio lice Jahvino i Jahve ga je uslišio, jer je vidio nevolju koju je aramejski kralj nanosio Izraelu.
Jehoahaz begged Yahweh, and Yahweh listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them.
5 Jahve je dao Izraelu izbavitelja koji ga je izbavio od ruke aramejske te su Izraelci živjeli u svojim šatorima kao i prije.
(Yahweh gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.
6 Ali nisu odstupali od grijeha kojim Jeroboam bijaše zaveo Izraela: ustrajali su u njemu, pa i ašere ostadoše u Samariji.
Nevertheless they didn’t depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin, but walked in them; and the Asherah also remained in Samaria.)
7 Jahve je ostavio Joahazu samo pedeset konjanika kao vojsku, deset bojnih kola i deset tisuća pješaka; kralj aramejski bijaše ih uništio i zgazio ih kao prah u vršidbi.
For he didn’t leave to Jehoahaz of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria destroyed them and made them like the dust in threshing.
8 Ostala povijest Joahazova, sve što je učinio i poduzimao, zar sve to nija zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9 Joahaz je počinuo sa svojim ocima i bi pokopan u Samariji, a njegov sin Joaš zakralji se mjesto njega.
Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his place.
10 Trideset i sedme godine kraljevanja judejskoga kralja Joaša postade Joaš, sin Joahazov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji; kraljevao je šesnaest godina.
In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria for sixteen years.
11 Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim. Nije odstupao od grijeha Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zaveo Izraela. Za njim se poveo.
He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight. He didn’t depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; but he walked in them.
12 Ostala povijest Joaševa, sve što je učinio, junaštva njegova, kako je ratovao s Amasjom, judejskim kraljem, zar sve to nije zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
13 Joaš je počinuo sa svojim ocima, a Jeroboam se popeo na njegovo prijestolje. Joaša pokopaše u Samariji uz izraelske kraljeve.
Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat on his throne. Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 Kad se Elizej razbolio od bolesti od koje mu valjade umrijeti, dođe mu izraelski kralj Joaš, rasplaka se nad njim i reče mu: “Oče moj, oče moj! Kola Izraelova i konjanici njegovi!”
Now Elisha became sick with the illness of which he died; and Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over him, and said, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!”
15 Elizej mu reče: “Uzmi luk i strijele.” I on dohvati luk i strijele.
Elisha said to him, “Take bow and arrows;” and he took bow and arrows for himself.
16 Elizej će tada kralju: “Nategni luk!” I on ga nateže. Elizej stavi ruke na ruke kraljeve,
He said to the king of Israel, “Put your hand on the bow;” and he put his hand on it. Elisha laid his hands on the king’s hands.
17 zatim reče: “Otvori prozor prema istoku.” I on ga otvori, a nato će Elizej: “Odapni!” I on odape, a Elizej reče: “Pobjedonosna strijela Jahvina! Pobjednička strijela nad Aramejcima! Do nogu ćeš potući Aramejce kod Afeka.”
He said, “Open the window eastward;” and he opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” and he shot. He said, “Yahweh’s arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Syria; for you will strike the Syrians in Aphek until you have consumed them.”
18 I nastavi: “Uzmi strijele!” On ih uze. Elizej tada reče kralju: “Udri o zemlju!” On udari tri puta i stade.
He said, “Take the arrows;” and he took them. He said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground;” and he struck three times, and stopped.
19 Tada se rasrdi na njega Božji čovjek i reče: “Pet ili šest puta trebalo je da udariš! Tada bi potpuno potukao Aramejce; ovako ćeš ih pobijediti samo tri puta.”
The man of God was angry with him, and said, “You should have struck five or six times. Then you would have struck Syria until you had consumed it, but now you will strike Syria just three times.”
20 Elizej zatim umrije i pokopaše ga. A pljačkaške čete Moabaca napadale zemlju svake godine.
Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 Dogodilo se te su neki, sahranjujući čovjeka, opazili razbojnike: baciše mtrvaca u grob Elizejev i odoše. Mrtvac, dotakavši se Elizejevih kostiju, oživje i stade na noge.
As they were burying a man, behold, they saw a band of raiders; and they threw the man into Elisha’s tomb. As soon as the man touched Elisha’s bones, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
22 Aramejski kralj Hazael ugnjetavaše Izraelce svega vijeka Joahazova.
Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 Ali im se Jahve smilova i ražali se nad njima. Pogleda na njih zbog svoga Saveza koji je sklopio s Abrahamom, Izakom i Jakovom. Nije ih htio uništiti i nije ih odbacio daleko od svoga lica do danas.
But Yahweh was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and favored them because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them and he didn’t cast them from his presence as yet.
24 Hazael, aramejski kralj, umrije, a njegov sin Ben-Hadad zavlada namjesto njega.
Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.
25 Tada Joaš, sin Joahazov, opet uze iz ruke Ben-Hadada, sina Hazaelova, gradove koje Hazael u ratu bijaše oteo njegovu ocu Joahazu. Joaš ga je tri puta potukao i vratio gradove Izraelove.
Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.
