2 Kings 4
1 Now a certain woman, the wife of one of the sons of the prophets, came crying to Elisha and said, Your servant my husband is dead; and to your knowledge he was a worshipper of the Lord; but now, the creditor has come to take my two children as servants in payment of his debt.
Žena jednoga od proročkih sinova zamoli Elizeja ovako: “Tvoj sluga, moj muž, umro je; a znaš da se tvoj sluga bojao Jahve. Sada je došao vjerovnik da mi uzme oba sina i učini ih svojim robovima.”
2 Then Elisha said to her, What am I to do for you? say now, what have you in the house? And she said, Your servant has nothing in the house but a pot of oil.
Elizej joj reče: “Što ti mogu učiniti! Reci mi što imaš u kući?” Ona odgovori: “Tvoja sluškinja nema ništa u kući, osim vrča ulja.”
3 Then he said, Go out to all your neighbours and get vessels, a very great number of them.
Tada joj reče: “Idi i posudi od svih svojih susjeda praznih sudova, ali neka ih ne bude premalo!
4 Then go in, and, shutting the door on yourself and your sons, put oil into all these vessels, putting on one side the full ones.
Zatim se vrati kući, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima i nalijevaj ulje u sve te sudove i pune stavljaj na stranu.”
5 So she went away, and when the door was shut on her and her sons, they took the vessels to her and she put oil into them.
I ode ona od njega, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima. Oni su joj dodavali sudove, a ona ih punila.
6 And when all the vessels were full, she said to her son, Get me another vessel. And he said, There are no more. And the flow of oil was stopped.
I kad se sudovi napuniše, reče ona svome sinu: “Dodaj mi još jedan sud!” Ali joj on odgovori: “Nema više sudova.” I ulje stade.
7 So she came to the man of God and gave him word of what she had done. And he said, Go and get money for the oil and make payment of your debt, and let the rest be for the needs of yourself and your sons.
Ona ode i kaza čovjeku Božjem, a on joj reče: “Idi, prodaj ulje i podmiri svoj dug, a od ostatka živjet ćeš ti i tvoji sinovi!”
8 Now there came a day when Elisha went to Shunem, and there was a woman of high position living there, who made him come in and have a meal with her. And after that, every time he went by, he went into her house for a meal.
Jednoga je dana Elizej prolazio kroza Šunam. A živjela ondje ugledna žena i ona ga pozva k stolu. Odonda, kad god prolazaše onuda, uvratio bi se k njoj na jelo.
9 And she said to her husband, Now I see that this is a holy man of God, who comes by day after day.
Ona reče svome mužu: “Evo, znam i vidim da je svet onaj čovjek Božji što prolazi ovuda.
10 So let us make a little room on the wall; and put a bed there for him, and a table and a seat and a light; so that when he comes to us, he will be able to go in there.
Načinimo mu sobicu na krovu, stavimo mu ondje postelju, stol, stolicu i svjetiljku: kad dođe k nama, povući će se onamo.”
11 Now one day, when he had gone there, he went into the little room and took his rest there.
Jednoga dana dođe on onamo, povuče se u gornju sobu i počinu ondje.
12 And he said to Gehazi, his servant, Send for this Shunammite. So in answer to his voice she came before him.
Reče zatim svome momku Gehaziju: “Pozovi tu Šunamku!” On je pozva te ona stade preda nj.
13 And he said to him, Now say to her, See, you have taken all this trouble for us; what is to be done for you? will you have any request made for you to the king or the captain of the army? But she said, I am living among my people.
I još mu reče: “Kaži joj: 'Lijepo se brineš za nas. Što možemo učiniti za te? Treba li reći riječ za te kralju ili vojskovođi?'” Ali ona odgovori: “Ja živim usred svoga naroda.”
14 So he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi made answer, Still there is this, she has no son and her husband is old.
On nastavi: “Dakle, što da učinimo za nju?” Gehazi odgovori: “Eto, nema sina, a muž joj je vremešan.”
15 Then he said, Send for her. And in answer to his voice she took her place at the door.
A on reče: “Pozovi je!” Pozva je, a ona stade kod ulaza.
16 And Elisha said, At this time in the coming year you will have a son in your arms. And she said, No, my lord, O man of God, do not say what is false to your servant.
“Dogodine u ovo doba”, reče joj, “zagrlit ćeš sina u naručju.” A ona reče: “Ne, gospodaru moj, ne varaj službenice svoje!”
17 Then the woman became with child and gave birth to a son at the time named, in the year after, as Elisha had said to her.
Ali je žena doista zatrudnjela i rodila je sina druge godine u ono doba, kako joj je rekao Elizej.
18 Now one day, when the child was older, he went out to his father to where the grain was being cut.
Dječak je rastao. Jednoga dana ode ocu kod žetelaca.
19 And he said to his father, My head, my head! And the father said to a servant, Take him in to his mother.
I potuži se ocu: “Jao, glava, glava moja!” A otac zapovjedi jednom momku da ga odnese majci.
20 And he took him in to his mother, and she took him on her knees and kept him there till the middle of the day, when his life went from him.
On ga uze i odvede ga njegovoj majci. Na njenim je koljenima ostao do podne i onda umrije.
21 Then she went up and put him on the bed of the man of God, shutting the door on him, and went out.
Ona tada ode gore i položi ga u postelju Božjega čovjeka. Izišla je zatim i zaključala vrata.
22 And she said to her husband, Send me one of the servants and one of the asses so that I may go quickly to the man of God and come back again.
Potom je pozvala svoga muža i rekla: “Pošalji mi jednoga od momaka i jednu magaricu; otrčat ću do čovjeka Božjeg i vratit ću se.”
23 And he said, Why are you going to him today? it is not a new moon or a Sabbath. But she said, It is well.
On je upita: “Zašto da danas pođeš k njemu? Nije ni mlađak niti je subota.” Ali ona odgovori: “Ostaj u miru!”
24 Then she made the ass ready and said to her servant, Keep driving on; do not make a stop without orders from me.
Pošto joj je momak osamario magaricu, ona će mu: “Povedi i pođi! Ne zadržavaj me na putu, osim ako ti naredim.”
25 So she went, and came to Mount Carmel, to the man of God. And when the man of God saw her coming in his direction, he said to Gehazi, his servant, See, there is the Shunammite;
Ode ona i dođe k čovjeku Božjem, na goru Karmel. Kada je čovjek Božji ugleda izdaleka, reče svome momku Gehaziju: “Evo one Šunamke.
26 Go quickly to her, and on meeting her say to her, Are you well? and your husband and the child, are they well? And she said in answer, All is well.
Otrči pred nju i pitaj je: 'Kako si? Je li ti muž dobro? Je li ti dijete zdravo?'” Ona odgovori: “Zdravi smo.”
27 And when she came to where the man of God was on the hill, she put her hands round his feet; and Gehazi came near with the purpose of pushing her away; but the man of God said, Let her be, for her soul is bitter in her; and the Lord has kept it secret from me, and has not given me word of it.
Kada je stigla do čovjeka Božjega na gori, obujmi mu noge. Gehazi pristupi da je odmakne, ali mu čovjek Božji reče: “Pusti je jer joj je duša ojađena. Jahve mi krije, nije mi ništa objavio.”
28 Then she said, Did I make a request to my lord for a son? did I not say, Do not give me false words?
A ona reče: “Zar sam ja tražila sina od svoga gospodara? Nisam li ti govorila da me ne zavaravaš?”
29 Then he said to Gehazi, Make yourself ready, and take my stick in your hand, and go: if you come across anyone on the way, give him no blessing, and if anyone gives you a blessing, give him no answer. And put my stick on the child's face.
On tada reče Gehaziju: “Opaši se, uzmi u ruku moj štap pa idi! Ako koga susretneš, ne pozdravljaj ga; ako te tko pozdravi, ne odzdravljaj mu. Moj štap položi na dječaka.”
30 But the mother of the child said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not go back without you. So he got up and went with her.
Ali dječakova majka reče: “Života mi Jahvina i tvoga, neću te ostaviti!” On tada ustade i pođe za njom.
31 And Gehazi went on before them and put the stick on the child's face; but there was no voice, and no one gave attention. So he went back, and meeting him gave him the news, saying, The child is not awake.
Gehazi je otišao prije njih i položio štap na dječaka, ali ne bješe ni glasa ni odziva. Vrati se on pred Elizeja i javi mu: “Dječak se nije probudio.”
32 And when Elisha came into the house he saw the child dead, stretched on his bed.
Elizej uđe u kuću i nađe dječaka gdje mrtav leži na njegovoj postelji.
33 So he went in, and shutting the door on the two of them, made prayer to the Lord.
Ušavši, zatvori vrata za sobom i pomoli se Jahvi.
34 Then he got up on the bed, stretching himself out on the child, and put his mouth on the child's mouth, his eyes on his eyes and his hands on his hands; and the child's body became warm.
Zatim se pope na postelju, leže na dječaka, položi svoja usta na njegova usta, svoje oči na njegove oči, svoje ruke na njegove ruke; disao je nad njim te se ugrijalo tijelo dječakovo.
35 Then he came back, and after walking once through the house and back, he went up, stretching himself out on the child seven times; and the child's eyes became open.
Potom ustade i prošeta se po kući tamo-amo, zatim se opet pope i disaše nad njim. A dječak tada kihnu sedam puta i otvori oči.
36 And he gave orders to Gehazi, and said, Send for the Shunammite. And she came in answer to his voice. And he said, Take up your son.
I zovnu Elizej Gehazija i reče: “Pozovi tu Šunamku.” On je pozva. Kad je stigla preda nj, reče joj: “Uzmi svoga sina.”
37 And she came in, and went down on her face to the earth at his feet; then she took her son in her arms and went out.
Ona, ušavši, pade mu pred noge i pokloni se do zemlje. Zatim uze svoga sina te iziđe.
38 And Elisha went back to Gilgal, now there was very little food in the land; and the sons of the prophets were seated before him. And he said to his servant, Put the great pot on the fire, and make soup for the sons of the prophets.
Elizej se vrati u Gilgal, a bijaše glad u zemlji. I kad su proročki sinovi sjedili pred njim, reče svome momku: “Stavi veliki lonac na vatru i skuhaj jelo sinovima proročkim.”
39 And one went out into the field to get green plants and saw a vine of the field, and pulling off the fruit of it till the fold of his robe was full, he came back and put the fruit, cut up small, into the pot of soup, having no idea what it was.
Jedan od njih ode u polje da nabere zelja, ali nađe divlju povijušu i nabra s nje punu haljinu gorkih plodova. Vrati se i nareza ih u lonac, jer nije znao kakvi su.
40 Then they gave the men soup from the pot. And while they were drinking the soup, they gave a cry, and said, O man of God, there is death in the pot; and they were not able to take any more food.
Usuše ljudima da jedu. Ali kad su počeli jesti, povikaše: “Čovječe Božji! Smrt je u loncu!” I nisu mogli jesti.
41 But he said, Get some meal. And he put it into the pot, and said, Now give it to the people so that they may have food. And there was nothing bad in the pot.
Tada će Elizej: “Donesite brašna!” I baci ga u lonac i reče: “Uspite ljudima neka jedu!” I ništa više nije bilo štetno u loncu.
42 Now a man came from Baal-shalishah with an offering of first-fruits for the man of God, twenty barley cakes and garden fruit in his bag. And he said, Give these to the people for food.
Neki čovjek došao iz Baal Šališe i donio čovjeku Božjem kruh od prvina, dvadeset ječmenih hljebova i kaše u torbi. A on zapovjedi: “Daj ljudima neka jedu!”
43 But his servant said, How am I to put this before a hundred men? But he said, Give it to the people for food; for the Lord says, There will be food for them and some over.
Ali njegov momak odgovori: “Kako to mogu postaviti pred stotinu ljudi?” On odgovori: “Podaj ljudima i neka jedu, jer ovako veli Jahve: 'Jest će i preostat će.'”
44 So he put it before them, and they had a meal and there was more than enough, as the Lord had said.
I postavi on pred njih. I jedoše i još preosta, prema riječi Jahvinoj.
