2 Kraljevima 2
1 A kad Gospod šæaše uzeti Iliju u vihoru na nebo, poðoše Ilija i Jelisije iz Galgala.
And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
2 I reèe Ilija Jelisiju: ostani ti ovdje, jer mene Gospod šalje do Vetilja. Ali Jelisije reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. I doðoše u Vetilj.
And Elijah said to Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Beth-el. And Elisha said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Beth-el.
3 Tada doðoše k Jelisiju sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Vetilju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas Gospod uzeti gospodara tvojega od tebe? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
And the sons of the prophets that [were] at Beth-el came forth to Elisha, and said to him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day? And he said, Yes, I know [it]; hold ye your peace.
4 Opet mu reèe Ilija: Jelisije, ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje u Jerihon. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, neæu te ostaviti. Tako doðoše u Jerihon.
And Elijah said to him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.
5 A sinovi proroèki koji bijahu u Jerihonu pristupiše k Jelisiju, i rekoše mu: znaš li da æe danas uzeti Gospod od tebe gospodara tvojega? A on reèe: znam, muèite.
And the sons of the prophets that [were] at Jericho came to Elisha, and said to him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to-day? And he answered, Yes, I know [it]; hold ye your peace.
6 Opet mu reèe Ilija: ostani ti tu, jer me Gospod šalje na Jordan. A on reèe: tako živ bio Gospod i tako bila živa tvoja duša, neæu te ostaviti. Tako otidoše obojica.
And Elijah said to him, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.
7 I pedeset ljudi izmeðu sinova proroèkih otidoše i stadoše prema njima izdaleka, a oni obojica ustaviše se kod Jordana.
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.
8 I uze Ilija plašt svoj, i saviv ga udari njim po vodi, a ona se rastupi tamo i amo, te prijeðoše obojica suhim.
And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped [it] together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.
9 A kad prijeðoše, reèe Ilija Jelisiju: išti šta hoæeš da ti uèinim, dokle se nijesam uzeo od tebe. A Jelisije reèe: da budu dva dijela duha tvojega u mene.
And it came to pass, when they had gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I am taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
10 A on mu reèe: zaiskao si tešku stvar; ali ako me vidiš kad se uzmem od tebe, biæe ti tako; ako li ne vidiš, neæe biti.
And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: [nevertheless], if thou shalt see me [when I am] taken from thee, it shall be so to thee; but if not, it shall not be [so].
11 I kad iðahu dalje razgovarajuæi se, gle, ognjena kola i ognjeni konji rastaviše ih, i Ilija otide u vihoru na nebo.
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that behold, [there appeared] a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 A Jelisije videæi to vikaše: oèe moj, oèe moj! kola Izrailjeva i konjici njegovi! I ne vidje ga više; potom uze haljine svoje i razdrije ih na dva komada.
And Elisha saw [it], and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
13 I podiže plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, i vrativ se stade na brijegu Jordanskom.
He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
14 I uzev plašt Ilijin, koji bješe spao s njega, udari po vodi i reèe: gdje je Gospod Bog Ilijin? A kad i on udari po vodi, rastupi se voda tamo i amo, i prijeðe Jelisije.
And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where [is] the LORD God of Elijah? And when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.
15 A kad s druge strane vidješe sinovi proroèki, koji bijahu u Jerihonu, rekoše: poèinu duh Ilijin na Jelisiju. I sretoše ga i pokloniše mu se do zemlje.
And when the sons of the prophets who [were] to view at Jericho, saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
16 I rekoše mu: evo ima u sluga tvojih pedeset junaka, neka idu i traže tvojega gospodara, da ga ne bude uzeo duh Gospodnji i bacio ga na kakvo brdo ili u kakav do. A on reèe: ne šaljite.
And they said to him, Behold now, there are with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest perhaps the Spirit of the LORD hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.
17 Ali oni navaljivahu na nj dokle mu se ne dosadi, te reèe: pošljite. I poslaše pedeset ljudi koji ga tražiše tri dana, ali ne naðoše.
And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.
18 I vratiše se k njemu, a on bijaše u Jerihonu, pa im reèe: nijesam li vam govorio da ne idete?
And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho, ) he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?
19 Tada graðani rekoše Jelisiju: gle, dobro je živjeti u ovom gradu, kao što gospodar naš vidi; ali je voda zla i zemlja nerodna.
And the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city [is] pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water [is] bad, and the ground barren.
20 A on im reèe: donesite mi nov kutao, i metnite u nj soli. I donesoše mu.
And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought [it] to him.
21 A on izide na izvor i baci u nj so, govoreæi: ovako veli Gospod: iscijelih ovu vodu, da ne bude više od nje smrti ni nerodnosti.
And he went forth to the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren [land].
22 I voda posta zdrava do današnjega dana po rijeèi Jelisijevoj, koju izreèe.
So the waters were healed to this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spoke.
23 Potom otide odande u Vetilj; i kad iðaše putem, izidoše mala djeca iz grada i rugahu mu se govoreæi mu: hodi, æelo! hodi, æelo!
And he went up from thence to Beth-el: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, thou bald-head; go up, thou bald-head.
24 A Jelisije obazre se i videæi ih prokle ih imenom Gospodnjim. Tada izidoše dvije medvjedice iz šume, i rastrgoše èetrdeset i dvoje djece.
And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tore forty and two children of them.
25 Odande otide na goru Karmilsku, a odande se vrati u Samariju.
And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
