Kings IV 13
1 In the twenty-third year of Joas son of Ochozias king of Juda began Joachaz the son of Ju to reign in Samaria, [and he reigned] seventeen years.
Dvadeset i treće godine kraljevanja judejskog kralja Joaša, sina Ahazjina, postade Joahaz, sin Jehuov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji. Kraljevao je sedamnaest godina.
2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked after the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin; he departed not from them.
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.
3 And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and delivered them into the hand of Azael king of Syria, and into the hand of the son of Ader son of Azael, all their days.
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.
4 And Joachaz implored the Lord, and the Lord listened to him, for he saw the affliction of Israel, because the king of Syria afflicted them.
Ali je Joahaz ublažio lice Jahvino i Jahve ga je uslišio, jer je vidio nevolju koju je aramejski kralj nanosio Izraelu.
5 And the Lord gave deliverance to Israel, and they escaped from under the hand of Syria: and the children of Israel lived in their tents as heretofore.
Jahve je dao Izraelu izbavitelja koji ga je izbavio od ruke aramejske te su Izraelci živjeli u svojim šatorima kao i prije.
6 Only they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who led Israel to sin: they walked in them—moreover the grove also remained in Samaria.
Ali nisu odstupali od grijeha kojim Jeroboam bijaše zaveo Izraela: ustrajali su u njemu, pa i ašere ostadoše u Samariji.
7 Whereas there was not left any army to Joachaz, except fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand infantry: for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and they made them as dust for trampling.
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.
8 And the rest of the acts of Joachaz, and all that he did, and his mighty acts [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Ostala povijest Joahazova, sve što je učinio i poduzimao, zar sve to nija zapisano u knjizi Ljetopisa kraljeva izraelskih?
9 And Joachaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria: and Joas his son reigned in his stead.
Joahaz je počinuo sa svojim ocima i bi pokopan u Samariji, a njegov sin Joaš zakralji se mjesto njega.
10 In the thirty-seventh year of Joas king of Juda, Joas the son of Joachaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.
Trideset i sedme godine kraljevanja judejskoga kralja Joaša postade Joaš, sin Joahazov, izraelskim kraljem u Samariji; kraljevao je šesnaest godina.
11 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord; he departed not from all the sin of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who led Israel to sin: he walked in it.
Činio je što je zlo u očima Jahvinim. Nije odstupao od grijeha Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, koji je zaveo Izraela. Za njim se poveo.
12 And the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, and his mighty acts which he performed together with Amessias king of Juda, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
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?
13 And Joas slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat upon his throne, and he was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
Joaš je počinuo sa svojim ocima, a Jeroboam se popeo na njegovo prijestolje. Joaša pokopaše u Samariji uz izraelske kraljeve.
14 Now Elisaie was sick of his sickness, whereof he died: and Joas king of Israel went down to him, and wept over his face, and said, [My] father, [my] father, the chariot of Israel, and the horseman thereof!
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!”
15 And Elisaie said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took to himself a bow and arrows.
Elizej mu reče: “Uzmi luk i strijele.” I on dohvati luk i strijele.
16 And he said to the king, Put your hand on the bow. And Joas put his hand upon [it]: and Elisaie put his hands upon the king's hands.
Elizej će tada kralju: “Nategni luk!” I on ga nateže. Elizej stavi ruke na ruke kraljeve,
17 And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. And Elisaie said, Shoot. And he shot. And [Elisaie] said, The arrow of the Lord's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria; and you shall strike the Syrians in Aphec until you have consumed them.
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.”
18 And Elisaie said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took them. And [he] said to the king of Israel, Strike upon the ground. And the king struck three times, and stayed.
I nastavi: “Uzmi strijele!” On ih uze. Elizej tada reče kralju: “Udri o zemlju!” On udari tri puta i stade.
19 And the man of God was grieved at him, and said, If you had struck five or six times, then you should have struck Syria till you had consumed them; but now you shall strike Syria [only] thrice.
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.”
20 And Elisaie died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites came into the land, at the beginning of the year.
Elizej zatim umrije i pokopaše ga. A pljačkaške čete Moabaca napadale zemlju svake godine.
21 And it came to pass as they were burying a man, that behold, they saw a band [of men], and they cast the man into the grave of Elisaie: and as soon as he touched the bones of Elisaie, he revived and stood up on his feet.
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.
22 And Azael greatly afflicted Israel all the days of Joachaz.
Aramejski kralj Hazael ugnjetavaše Izraelce svega vijeka Joahazova.
23 And the Lord had mercy and compassion upon them, and had respect to them because of his covenant with Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob; and the Lord would not destroy them, and did not cast them out from his presence.
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.
24 And Azael king of Syria died, and the son of Ader his son reigned in his stead.
Hazael, aramejski kralj, umrije, a njegov sin Ben-Hadad zavlada namjesto njega.
25 And Joas the son of Joachaz returned, and took the cities out of the hand of the son of Ader the son of Azael, which he had taken out of the hand of Joachaz his father in the war: thrice did Joas strike him, and he recovered the cities of Israel.
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.
