< Kings IV 9 >

1 And Elisaie the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up your loins, and take this cruse of oil in your hand, and go to Remmoth Galaad.
Prorok Elizej pozva jednoga od proročkih sinova i reče mu: “Opaši se, uzmi sa sobom ovu posudu s uljem pa idi u Ramot Gilead.
2 And you shall enter there, and shall see there Ju the son of Josaphat son of Namessi, and shall go in and make him rise up from amongst his brethren, and shall bring him into a secret chamber.
Kad onamo stigneš, potraži Jehua, sina Jošafatova, sina Nimšijeva. Kad ga nađeš, izvedi ga između njegovih drugova i uvedi ga u pokrajnju sobu.
3 And you shall take the cruse of oil, and pour [it] on his head, and say you, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you king over Israel: and you shall open the door, and flee, and not wait.
I uzmi posudu s uljem, izlij mu je na glavu i reci: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja izraelskoga.' Zatim otvori vrata i bježi, ne oklijevaj.”
4 And the young man the prophet went to Remmoth Galaad.
Tada mladi prorok ode u Ramot Gilead.
5 And he went in, and, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have a message to you, O captain. And Ju said, To which of all us? And he said, To you, O captain.
Kad je stigao, zapovjednici vojske upravo su sjedili na okupu. On reče: “Imam ti riječ reći, zapovjedniče!” Jehu upita: “Komu od nas?” On odgovori: “Tebi, zapovjedniče!”
6 And he arose, and went into the house: and he poured the oil upon his head, and said to him, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I have anointed you to be king over the people of the Lord, even over Israel.
Jehu tada ustade i uđe u kuću. Mladi mu čovjek izli ulje na glavu i reče mu: “Ovako veli Jahve, Bog Izraelov: 'Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Jahvinim narodom, nad Izraelom.
7 And you shall utterly destroy the house of Achaab your master from before me, and shall avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the Lord, at the hand of Jezabel,
Ti ćeš pobiti obitelj Ahaba, gospodara tvoga, a ja ću osvetiti krv svojih slugu proroka i krv sviju službenika Jahvinih na Izebeli
8 and at the hand of the whole house of Achaab: and you shall utterly cut off from the house of Achaab every male, and him that is shut up and left in Israel.
i na svoj obitelji Ahabovoj. Iskorijenit ću Ahabu sve što mokri uza zid, robove i slobodnjake u Izraelu.
9 And I will make the house of Achaab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa the son of Achia.
Učinit ću s domom Ahabovim kao s domom Jeroboama, sina Nebatova, i kao s domom Baše, sina Ahijina.
10 And the dogs shall eat Jezabel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
A Izebelu će proždrijeti psi na polju jizreelskom i nitko je neće pokopati.'” - Zatim otvori vrata i pobježe.
11 And Ju went forth to the servants of his lord, and they said to him, [Is] all well? Why came this mad fellow in to you? And he said to them, You know the man, and his communication.
Jehu iziđe k časnicima svoga gospodara. Oni ga upitaše: “Je li sve u miru? Zašto je ta budala dolazila k tebi?” On im odgovori: “Znate čovjeka i besjedu njegovu.”
12 And they said, [It is] wrong: tell us now. And Ju said to them, Thus and thus spoke he to me, saying, —and he said, Thus says the Lord, I have anointed you to be king over Israel.
Oni rekoše: “Ne znamo! Kazuj nam!” On im reče: “Govorio mi je tako i tako i rekao mi: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Pomazao sam te za kralja nad Izraelom.'”
13 And when they heard it, they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with the trumpet, and said, Ju is king.
Odmah oni uzeše svoje ogrtače i prostriješe ih pred njim po stepenicama, zatrubiše u rogove i povikaše: “Jehu je kralj!”
14 So Ju the son of Josaphat the son of Namessi conspired against Joram, and Joram was defending Remmoth Galaad, he and all Israel, because of Azael king of Syria.
Tako Jehu, sin Jošafata, sina Nimšijeva, skova urotu protiv Jorama - Joram je tada branio Ramot Gilead sa svim Izraelcima protiv Hazaela, aramejskog kralja.
15 And king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezrael of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, in his war with Azael king of Syria. And Ju said, If your heart is with me, let there not go forth out of the city one fugitive to go and report to Jezrael.
Ali se kralj Joram vratio u Jizreel da liječi rane koje su mu zadali Aramejci u boju s Hazaelom, aramejskim kraljem. - I reče Jehu: “Ako vam je po volji, neka nitko ne utekne iz grada da odnese vijest u Jizreel.”
16 And Ju rode and advanced, and came down to Jezrael; for Joram king of Israel was getting healed in Jezrael of the arrow-wounds wherewith the Syrians [had] wounded him in Rammath in the war with Azael king of Syria; for he [was] strong and a mighty man: and Ochozias king of Juda was come down to see Joram.
Jehu se tada pope na kola i ode prema Jizreelu, jer je Joram ondje bolovao, i Ahazja, kralj judejski, došao ga posjetiti.
17 And there went up a watchman upon the tower of Jezrael, and saw the dust [made by] Ju as he approached; and he said, I see dust. And Joram said, Take a horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Peace.
Stražar koji je stajao na kuli u Jizreelu, videći da dolazi Jehuova četa, javi: “Vidim nekakvu četu.” Joram naredi: “Uzmi konjanika i pošalji ga pred njih da upita: je li sve s mirom.”
18 And there went a horseman to meet them, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me. And the watchman reported, saying, The messenger came up to them, and has not returned.
Ode konjanik preda nj i reče: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.” Stražar javi: “Glasnik je stigao do njih, ali se ne vraća.”
19 And he sent another horseman, and he came to him, and said, Thus says the king, Peace. And Ju said, What have you to do with peace? turn behind me.
Kralj posla drugoga konjanika. Taj dođe k njima i upita: “Ovako veli kralj: je li sve s mirom?” - Jehu mu odgovori: “Što te briga je li s mirom! Hajde za mnom.”
20 And the watchman reported, saying, He came up to them, and has not returned: and the driver drives Ju the son of Namessi, for it is with furious [haste].
Stražar opet javi: “Došao je do njih, ali se ne vraća. A vožnja je kao vožnja Jehua, sina Nimšijeva: vozi kao mahnit!”
21 And Joram said, Make ready. And one made ready the chariot: and Joram the king of Israel went forth, and Ochozias king of Juda, each in his chariot, and they went to meet Ju, and found him in the portion of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
Joram reče: “Preži!” I upregoše u njegova kola. Joram, kralj Izraela, i judejski kralj Ahazja iziđoše, svaki u svojim kolima, u susret Jehuu. Susretoše ga u polju Nabota Jizreelca.
22 And it came to pass when Joram saw Ju, that he said, [Is it] peace, Ju? And Ju said, How [can it be] peace? as yet [there are] the whoredoms of your mother Jezabel, and her abundant witchcrafts.
Kad Joram ugleda Jehua, upita ga: “Je li sve u miru, Jehu?” Ovaj odgovori: “Kakvu miru dok traju bludništva tvoje majke Izebele i njena mnoga čaranja!”
23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ochozias, Treachery, Ochozias.
Joram okrenu i udari u bijeg govoreći Ahazji: “Izdaja, Ahazja!”
24 And Ju bent his bow with his full strength, and struck Joram between his arms, and his arrow went out at his heart, and he bowed upon his knees.
Jehu se lati luka, ustrijeli Jorama među pleća: strijela mu prođe posred srca te se on sruši u kola.
25 And [Ju] said to Badecar his chief officer, Cast him into the portion of ground of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, for I and you remember, riding [as we were] on chariots after Achaab his father, that the Lord took up this burden against him, [saying],
Jehu reče svome dvorjaniku Bidkaru: “Digni ga i baci na njivu Nabota Jizreelca. Sjeti se: kad smo ja i ti jahali za njegovim ocem Ahabom, kako Jahve izreče protiv njega:
26 Surely, I have seen yesterday the blood of Nabuthai, and the blood of his sons, says the Lord; and I will recompense him in this portion, says the Lord. Now then, I pray you, take him up and cast him into the portion, according to the word of the Lord.
'Kunem se: kako sinoć vidjeh krv Nabotovu i krv njegovih sinova,' riječ je Jahvina, 'tako ću ti vratiti isto na ovome polju,' riječ je Jahvina. Digni ga, dakle, i baci ga na to polje, prema riječi Jahvinoj.”
27 And Ochozias king of Juda saw [it], and fled by the way of Baethgan. And Ju pursued after him, and said, [Slay] him also. And one struck him in the chariot at the going up of Gai, which is Jeblaam: and he fled to Mageddo, and died there.
Kada je to vidio judejski kralj Ahazja, pobježe prema Bet Haganu, ali ga je Jehu gonio i naredio: “Ubijte i njega!” Ranili su ga u kolima na brdu Guru, koje se nalazi kod Jibleama. Ali je umakao u Megido i ondje umrije.
28 And his servants put him on a chariot, and brought him to Jerusalem, and they buried him in his sepulchre in the city of David.
Njegove su ga sluge u kolima prenijele u Jeruzalem i sahranile ga u grobnici kraj njegovih otaca, u Davidovu gradu.
29 And in the eleventh year of Joram king of Israel, Ochozias began to reign over Juda.
Jedanaeste godine kraljevanja Jorama, sina Ahabova, Ahazja postade kralj nad Judejom.
30 And Ju came to Jezrael; and Jezabel heard [of it], and coloured her eyes, and adorned her head, and looked through the window.
A Jehu bijaše ušao u Jizreel. Kad je to čula Izebela, namaza oči, uresi glavu i pogleda s prozora.
31 And Ju entered into the city; and she said, Had Zambri, the murderer of his master, peace?
I kad je Jehu ulazio na vrata, ona reče: “Kako je, Zimri, ubojico svoga gospodara?”
32 And he lifted up his face towards the window, and saw her, and said, Who are you? Come down with me. And two eunuchs looked down towards him.
Jehu okrenu lice prema prozoru i reče: “Tko je sa mnom, tko?” I dva-tri dvoranina pogledaše prema njemu.
33 And he said, Throw her [down]. And they threw her [down]; and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and they trampled on her.
On reče: “Bacite je dolje.” I oni je baciše. Njena je krv poprskala zidove i konje, koji je pogaziše.
34 And [Ju] went in and ate and drank, and said, Look now, after this cursed woman, and bury her, for she is a king's daughter.
Ušao je on, jeo i pio, a zatim naredio: “Pogledajte onu prokletnicu i sahranite je, jer je bila kraljevska kći.”
35 And they went to bury her; but they found nothing of her but the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.
I odoše da je sahrane, ali ne nađoše ništa od nje, osim lubanje, nogu i ruku.
36 And they returned and told him. And he said, [It is] the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Eliu the Thesbite, saying, In the portion of Jezrael shall the dogs eat the flesh of Jezabel.
Vratiše se i javiše, a Jehu reče: “To je riječ koju je Jahve objavio preko svoga sluge Ilije Tišbijca: 'U polju jizreelskom psi će proždrijeti Izebelino tijelo.
37 And the carcass of Jezabel shall be as dung on the face of the field in the portion of Jezrael, so that they shall not say, [This is] Jezabel.
Izebelino truplo bit će kao gnoj u polju, da se neće moći kazati: Ovo je Izebela.'”
