II Kings 4

Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.

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."

And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save 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."

Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.

Tada joj reče: "Idi i posudi od svih svojih susjeda praznih sudova, ali neka ih ne bude premalo!

And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.

Zatim se vrati kući, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima i nalijevaj ulje u sve te sudove i pune stavljaj na stranu."

So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.

I ode ona od njega, zatvori vrata za sobom i za svojim sinovima. Oni su joj dodavali sudove, a ona ih punila.

And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.

I kad se sudovi napuniše, reče ona svome sinu: "Dodaj mi još jedan sud!" Ali joj on odgovori: "Nema više sudova." I ulje stade.

Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.

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!"

And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.

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.

And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.

Ona reče svome mužu: "Evo, znam i vidim da je svet onaj čovjek Božji što prolazi ovuda.

Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

Načinimo mu sobicu na krovu, stavimo mu ondje postelju, stol, stolicu i svjetiljku: kad dođe k nama, povući će se onamo."

And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.

Jednoga dana dođe on onamo, povuče se u gornju sobu i počinu ondje.

And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.

Reče zatim svome momku Gehaziju: "Pozovi tu Šunamku!" On je pozva te ona stade preda nj.

And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own 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."

And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.

On nastavi: "Dakle, što da učinimo za nju?" Gehazi odgovori: "Eto, nema sina, a muž joj je vremešan."

And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.

A on reče: "Pozovi je!" Pozva je, a ona stade kod ulaza.

And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.

"Dogodine u ovo doba", reče joj, "zagrlit ćeš sina u naručju." A ona reče: "Ne, gospodaru moj, ne varaj službenice svoje!"

And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.

Ali je žena doista zatrudnjela i rodila je sina druge godine u ono doba, kako joj je rekao Elizej.

And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.

Dječak je rastao. Jednoga dana ode ocu kod žetelaca.

And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.

I potuži se ocu: "Jao, glava, glava moja!" A otac zapovjedi jednom momku da ga odnese majci.

And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.

On ga uze i odvede ga njegovoj majci. Na njenim je koljenima ostao do podne i onda umrije.

And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.

Ona tada ode gore i položi ga u postelju Božjega čovjeka. Izišla je zatim i zaključala vrata.

And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come 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."

And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.

On je upita: "Zašto da danas pođeš k njemu? Nije ni mlađak niti je subota." Ali ona odgovori: "Ostaj u miru!"

Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee.

Pošto joj je momak osamario magaricu, ona će mu: "Povedi i pođi! Ne zadržavaj me na putu, osim ako ti naredim."

So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:

Ode ona i dođe k čovjeku Božjem, na goru Karmel. Kada je čovjek Božji ugleda izdaleka, reče svome momku Gehaziju: "Evo one Šunamke.

Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.

Otrči pred nju i pitaj je: 'Kako si? Je li ti muž dobro? Je li ti dijete zdravo?'" Ona odgovori: "Zdravi smo."

And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.

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."

Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?

A ona reče: "Zar sam ja tražila sina od svoga gospodara? Nisam li ti govorila da me ne zavaravaš?"

Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.

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."

And the mother of the child said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.

Ali dječakova majka reče: "Života mi Jahvina i tvoga, neću te ostaviti!" On tada ustade i pođe za njom.

And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.

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."

And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.

Elizej uđe u kuću i nađe dječaka gdje mrtav leži na njegovoj postelji.

He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD.

Ušavši, zatvori vrata za sobom i pomoli se Jahvi.

And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed 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.

Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

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.

And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son.

I zovnu Elizej Gehazija i reče: "Pozovi tu Šunamku." On je pozva. Kad je stigla preda nj, reče joj: "Uzmi svoga sina."

Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.

Ona, ušavši, pade mu pred noge i pokloni se do zemlje. Zatim uze svoga sina te iziđe.

And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage 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."

And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not.

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.

So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.

Usuše ljudima da jedu. Ali kad su počeli jesti, povikaše: "Čovječe Božji! Smrt je u loncu!" I nisu mogli jesti.

But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm 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.

And there came a man from Baal–shalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat.

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!"

And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof.

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.'"

So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of the LORD.

I postavi on pred njih. I jedoše i još preosta, prema riječi Jahvinoj.
