2 Kings 6
1 And sons of the prophet say to Elisha, “Now behold, the place where we are dwelling before you is too narrow for us;
Sinovi prerokov so Elizeju rekli: »Glej torej, kraj, kjer prebivamo s teboj, je za nas preveč utesnjen.
2 please let us go to the Jordan, and we each take one beam from there, and we make a place there for ourselves to dwell there”; and he says, “Go.”
Naj gremo, prosimo te, k Jordanu in si od tam vsak mož vzame bruno in si tam zgradimo kraj, kjer bomo lahko prebivali.« Odgovoril je: »Pojdite.«
3 And the one says, “Please be willing, and go with your servants”; and he says, “I go.”
Nekdo je rekel: »Bodi zadovoljen, prosim te in pojdi s svojimi služabniki.« Odgovoril je: »Šel bom.«
4 And he goes with them, and they come to the Jordan, and cut down the trees,
Tako je šel z njimi. In ko so prišli k Jordanu, so sekali les.
5 and it comes to pass, the one is felling the beam, and the iron [ax head] has fallen into the water, and he cries and says, “Aah! My lord, for it was borrowed!”
Toda ko je nekdo podiral drevo, je glava sekire padla v vodo in zavpil je ter rekel: »Ojoj, gospod! Kajti bila je izposojena.«
6 And the man of God says, “To where has it fallen?” And he shows him the place, and he cuts a stick, and casts [it] there, and causes the iron to swim,
Božji mož je rekel: »Kam je padla?« Ta mu je pokazal kraj. In odsekal je palico ter jo vrgel tja in železo je zaplavalo.
7 and says, “Raise [it] up for yourself”; and he puts forth his hand and takes it.
Zato je rekel: »Vzemi to k sebi.« In iztegnil je svojo roko in jo vzel.
8 And the king of Aram has been fighting against Israel, and takes counsel with his servants, saying, “At such and such a place [is] my encamping.”
Potem se je sirski kralj vojskoval zoper Izraela in se posvetoval s svojimi služabniki, rekoč: »Na tem in tem kraju bo moj tabor.«
9 And the man of God sends to the king of Israel, saying, “Take heed of passing by this place, for the Arameans are coming down there”;
Božji mož pa je k Izraelovemu kralju poslal, rekoč: »Pazi, da ne greš mimo tega kraja, kajti tja dol so prišli Sirci.«
10 and the king of Israel sends to the place of which the man of God spoke to him, and warned him, and he is preserved there not [just] once and not [just] twice.
Izraelov kralj je poslal h kraju, o katerem mu je povedal Božji mož, ga o njem posvaril in tam se je rešil, ne samo enkrat ali dvakrat.
11 And the heart of the king of Aram is tossed about concerning this thing, and he calls to his servants and says to them, “Do you not declare to me who of us [is] for the king of Israel?”
Zato je bilo srce sirskega kralja zaradi te stvari boleče vznemirjeno. Poklical je svoje služabnike in jim rekel: »Ali mi ne boste pokazali, kdo izmed nas je za Izraelovega kralja?«
12 And one of his servants says, “No, my lord, O king, for Elisha the prophet, who [is] in Israel, declares to the king of Israel the words that you speak in the inner part of your bed-chamber.”
Nekdo izmed njegovih služabnikov je rekel: »Nihče, moj gospod, oh kralj, temveč prerok Elizej, ki je v Izraelu, govori Izraelovemu kralju besede, ki jih ti govoriš v svoji spalnici.«
13 And he says, “Go and see where he [is], and I send and take him”; and it is declared to him, saying, “Behold—in Dothan.”
Rekel je: »Pojdi in poglej, kje je, da bom lahko poslal in ga zgrabil.« Bilo mu je povedano, rekoč: »Glej, on je v Dotánu.«
14 And he sends horses and chariot, and a heavy force there, and they come in by night, and go around against the city.
Zato je tja poslal konje, bojne vozove in veliko vojsko. Prišli so ponoči in obkolili mesto.
15 And the servant of the man of God rises early, and goes out, and behold, a force is surrounding the city, and horse and chariot, and his young man says to him, “Aah! My lord, how do we do?”
Ko je služabnik Božjega moža zgodaj vstal in odšel naprej, glej, vojska je obkolila mesto, tako s konji kakor bojnimi vozovi. Njegov služabnik mu je rekel: »Ojoj, moj gospod! Kaj bomo storili?«
16 And he says, “Do not fear, for more [are] they who [are] with us than they who [are] with them.”
Odgovoril je: »Ne boj se, kajti tistih, ki so z nami, je več kakor tistih, ki so z njimi.«
17 And Elisha prays and says, “YHWH, please open his eyes, and he sees”; and YHWH opens the eyes of the young man, and he sees, and behold, the hill is full of horses and chariots of fire around Elisha.
Elizej je molil in rekel: » Gospod, prosim te, odpri njegove oči, da bo lahko videl.« Gospod je odprl oči mladeniča in ta je videl in glej, gora je bila polna konj in ognjenih bojnih voz naokoli Elizeja.
18 And they come down to it, and Elisha prays to YHWH and says, “Please strike this nation with blindness”; and He strikes them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha.
Ko so prišli dol k njemu, je Elizej molil h Gospodu in rekel: »Udari to ljudstvo, prosim te, s slepoto.« In udaril jih je s slepoto glede na Elizejevo besedo.
19 And Elisha says to them, “This [is] not the way, nor [is] this the city; come after me, and I lead you to the man whom you seek”; and he leads them to Samaria.
Elizej jim je rekel: »To ni pot niti ni to mesto. Sledite mi in privedel vas bom k človeku, ki ga iščete.« Toda odvedel jih je v Samarijo.
20 And it comes to pass, at their coming to Samaria, that Elisha says, “YHWH, open the eyes of these, and they see”; and YHWH opens their eyes, and they see, and behold, [they are] in the midst of Samaria!
Ko so prišli v Samarijo, se je pripetilo, da je Elizej rekel: » Gospod, odpri oči teh mož, da bodo lahko videli.« In Gospod je odprl njihove oči in so videli in glej, bili so sredi Samarije.
21 And the king of Israel says to Elisha at his seeing them, “My father, do I strike, do I strike?”
Ko jih je Izraelov kralj videl, je rekel Elizeju: »Moj oče, ali naj jih udarim? Ali naj jih udarim?«
22 And he says, “You do not strike; are you striking those whom you have taken captive with your sword and with your bow? Set bread and water before them, and they eat, and drink, and go to their lord.”
Ta pa je odgovoril: »Ne boš jih udaril. Mar bi udaril tiste, ki si jih odvedel ujete s svojim mečem in s svojim lokom? Prednje postavi kruh in vodo, da bodo lahko jedli in pili in šli k svojemu gospodarju.«
23 And he prepares great provision for them, and they eat and drink, and he sends them away, and they go to their lord: and troops of Aram have not added to come into the land of Israel anymore.
Zanje je pripravil veliko preskrbo in ko so pojedli in popili, jih je poslal proč in odšli so k svojemu gospodarju. Tako čete iz Sirije niso nič več prihajale v deželo Izrael.
24 And it comes to pass afterward, that Ben-Hadad king of Aram gathers all his camp, and goes up, and lays siege to Samaria,
Po tem se je pripetilo, da je sirski kralj Ben Hadád zbral vso svojo vojsko, odšel gor in oblegal Samarijo.
25 and there is a great famine in Samaria, and behold, they are laying siege to it, until the head of a donkey is at eighty pieces of silver, and a forth of the cab of dove’s dung at five pieces of silver.
Tam v Samariji pa je bila velika lakota. Glej, oblegali so jo, dokler ni bila oslovska glava prodana za osemdeset koščkov srebra in četrtinka kaba golobjega iztrebka za pet koščkov srebra.
26 And it comes to pass, the king of Israel is passing by on the wall, and a woman has cried to him, saying, “Save, my lord, O king.”
Medtem ko se je Izraelov kralj sprehajal po obzidju, je k njemu zavpila ženska, rekoč: »Pomagaj, moj gospod, oh kralj.«
27 And he says, “YHWH does not save you—from where do I save you? Out of the threshing-floor or out of the wine-vat?”
Ta ji je rekel: »Če ti Gospod ne pomaga, od kod naj ti jaz pomagam? Iz skednja ali iz vinske stiskalnice?«
28 And the king says to her, “What is [troubling] you?” And she says, “This woman said to me, Give your son, and we eat him today, and we eat my son tomorrow;
Kralj ji je rekel: »Kaj te pesti?« Odgovorila je: »Ta ženska mi je rekla: ›Daj svojega sina, da ga bomo lahko danes pojedli, mojega sina pa bomo pojedli jutri.‹«
29 and we boil my son and eat him, and I say to her on the next day, Give your son, and we eat him; and she hides her son.”
Tako smo skuhali mojega sina in ga pojedli. Naslednji dan pa sem ji rekla: »Daj svojega sina, da ga bomo lahko pojedli.« Ona pa je svojega sina skrila.
30 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the words of the woman, that he tears his garments, and he is passing by on the wall, and the people see, and behold, the sackcloth [is] within on his flesh.
Pripetilo se je, ko je kralj slišal besede ženske, da je pretrgal svoja oblačila. Prek obzidja je šel mimo in ljudstvo je gledalo in glej, na svojem telesu je imel spodaj vrečevino.
31 And he says, “Thus God does to me and thus He adds, if the head of Elisha son of Shaphat remains on him this day.”
Potem je rekel: »Bog naj mi stori tako in še več, če bo glava Šafátovega sina Elizeja, ta dan obstala na njem.«
32 And Elisha is sitting in his house, and the elderly are sitting with him, and [the king] sends a man from before him; before the messenger comes to him, even he himself said to the elderly, “Have you seen that this son of the murderer has sent [him] to turn aside my head? See, at the coming in of the messenger, shut the door, and you have held him fast at the door, is not the sound of the feet of his lord behind him?”
Toda Elizej je sedel v svoji hiši in starešine so sedeli z njim. In kralj je izpred sebe poslal moža, toda malo preden je poslanec prišel k njemu, je starešinam rekel: »Ali vidite, kako je ta sin morilca poslal, da mi vzame mojo glavo? Poglejte, ko pride poslanec, zaprite vrata in ga trdno držite pri vratih. Mar ni zvok stopal njegovega gospodarja za njim?«
33 He is yet speaking with them, and behold, the messenger is coming down to him, and he says, “Behold, this [is] the calamity from YHWH; why do I wait for YHWH anymore?”
Medtem ko je še govoril z njimi, glej, je dol k njemu prišel poslanec in rekel: »Glej to zlo je od Gospoda. Zakaj bi še čakal na Gospoda?«
