1 A Ven-Adad car sirski skupi vojsku svoju, i imaše sa sobom trideset i dva cara, i konje i kola; i otišavši opkoli Samariju i stade je biti.
1 Ben Hadad the king of Syria gathered all his army together; and there were thirty-two kings with him, with horses and chariots. He went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
2 I posla poslanike k Ahavu, caru Izrailjevom u grad,
2 He sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel and said to him, “Ben Hadad says,
3 i poruči mu: Ovako veli Ven-Adad: Srebro tvoje i zlato tvoje moje je, tako i žene tvoje i tvoji lepi sinovi moji su.
3 ‘Your silver and your gold are mine. Your wives also and your children, even the best, are mine.’”
4 A car Izrailjev odgovori i reče: Kao što si rekao, gospodaru moj care, ja sam tvoj i sve što imam.
4 The king of Israel answered, “It is according to your saying, my lord, O king. I am yours, and all that I have.”
5 A poslanici opet dođoše i rekoše: Ovako veli Ven-Adad: Poslao sam k tebi i poručio: Srebro svoje i zlato svoje i žene svoje i sinove svoje da mi daš.
5 The messengers came again and said, “Ben Hadad says, ‘I sent indeed to you, saying, “You shall deliver me your silver, your gold, your wives, and your children;
6 Zato ću sutra u ovo doba poslati sluge svoje k tebi da pregledaju kuću tvoju i kuće sluga tvojih, i šta ti je god milo, oni će uzeti i odneti.
6 but I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they will search your house and the houses of your servants. Whatever is pleasant in your eyes, they will put it in their hand, and take it away.”’”
7 Tada dozva car Izrailjev sve starešine zemaljske i reče: Gledajte i vidite kako ovaj traži zlo; jer posla k meni po mene i po sinove moje i po srebro moje i po zlato moje, i ja mu ne branih.
7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, “Please notice how this man seeks mischief; for he sent to me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I didn’t deny him.”
8 A sve starešine i sav narod rekoše mu: Ne slušaj ga i ne pristaj.
8 All the elders and all the people said to him, “Don’t listen, and don’t consent.”
9 I reče poslanicima Ven-Adadovim: Kažite caru gospodaru mom: Što si prvo poručio sluzi svom sve ću učiniti; ali ovo ne mogu učiniti. Tako otidoše poslanici i odnesoše mu taj odgovor.
9 Therefore he said to the messengers of Ben Hadad, “Tell my lord the king, ‘All that you sent for to your servant at the first I will do, but this thing I cannot do.’” The messengers departed and brought him back the message.
10 A Ven-Adad posla k njemu i poruči: Tako da mi učine bogovi i tako dodadu! Neće biti dosta praha od Samarije da svemu narodu koji ide za mnom dopadne po jedna grst.
10 Ben Hadad sent to him, and said, “The gods do so to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria will be enough for handfuls for all the people who follow me.”
11 A car Izrailjev odgovori i reče: Kažite: Neka se hvali onaj koji se opasuje kao onaj koji se raspasuje.
11 The king of Israel answered, “Tell him, ‘Don’t let him who puts on his armor brag like he who takes it off.’”
12 A kad on to ču pijući s carevima pod šatorima, reče slugama svojim: Dižite se. I digoše se na grad.
12 When Ben Hadad heard this message as he was drinking, he and the kings in the pavilions, he said to his servants, “Prepare to attack!” So they prepared to attack the city.
13 Tada gle, pristupi jedan prorok k Ahavu caru Izrailjevom, i reče: Ovako veli Gospod: Vidiš li sve ovo mnoštvo? Evo, ja ću ti ga dati u ruke danas da poznaš da sam ja Gospod.
13 Behold, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel, and said, “Yahweh says, ‘Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will deliver it into your hand today. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.’”
14 A Ahav reče: Preko koga? A on reče: Ovako veli Gospod: Preko momaka knezova zemaljskih. Opet reče: Ko će zametnuti boj? A on reče: Ti.
14 Ahab said, “By whom?” He said, “Yahweh says, ‘By the young men of the princes of the provinces.’” Then he said, “Who shall begin the battle?” He answered, “You.”
15 Tada prebroja momke knezova zemaljskih, i beše ih dvesta i trideset i dva; posle njih prebroja sav narod, sve sinove Izrailjeve, i beše ih sedam hiljada.
15 Then he mustered the young men of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty-two. After them, he mustered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand.
16 I iziđoše u podne; a Ven-Adad pijući opi se u šatorima s trideset i dva cara koji mu dođoše u pomoć.
16 They went out at noon. But Ben Hadad was drinking himself drunk in the pavilions, he and the kings, the thirty-two kings who helped him.
17 I iziđoše prvo momci knezova zemaljskih; a Ven-Adad posla, i javiše mu i rekoše: Iziđoše ljudi iz Samarije.
17 The young men of the princes of the provinces went out first; and Ben Hadad sent out, and they told him, saying, “Men are coming out from Samaria.”
18 A on reče: Ako su izašli mira radi, pohvatajte ih žive; ako su izašli na boj, pohvatajte ih žive.
18 He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive.”
19 I iziđoše iz grada momci knezova zemaljskih, i vojska za njima.
19 So these went out of the city, the young men of the princes of the provinces, and the army which followed them.
20 I svaki ubi s kojim se sukobi, te Sirci pobegoše, a Izrailjci ih poteraše. I Ven-Adad, car sirski pobeže na konju s konjicima.
20 They each killed his man. The Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them. Ben Hadad the king of Syria escaped on a horse with horsemen.
21 I car Izrailjev iziđe i pobi konje i kola, i učini velik pokolj među Sircima.
21 The king of Israel went out and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Syrians with a great slaughter.
22 Potom dođe prorok k caru Izrailjevom i reče mu: Idi, budi hrabar; i promisli i vidi šta ćeš činiti, jer će do godine opet doći car sirski na te.
22 The prophet came near to the king of Israel and said to him, “Go, strengthen yourself, and plan what you must do, for at the return of the year, the king of Syria will come up against you.”
23 A caru sirskom rekoše sluge njegove: Njihovi su bogovi gorski bogovi, zato nas nadjačaše; nego da se bijemo s njima u polju, za celo ćemo ih nadjačati.
23 The servants of the king of Syria said to him, “Their god is a god of the hills; therefore they were stronger than we. But let’s fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they.
24 Učini dakle ovako: Ukloni te careve s mesta njihovih, i postavi vojvode mesto njih.
24 Do this thing: take the kings away, every man out of his place, and put captains in their place.
25 Pa skupi vojsku kakva je bila ona koja je izginula, i konje kakvi su bili oni konji, i kola kao ona kola; pa da se pobijemo s njima u polju; zacelo ćemo ih nadjačati. I posluša ih, i učini tako.
25 Muster an army like the army that you have lost, horse for horse and chariot for chariot. We will fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they are.” He listened to their voice and did so.
26 A kad prođe godina, Ven-Adad prebroja Sirce, i pođe u Afek da vojuje na Izrailja.
26 At the return of the year, Ben Hadad mustered the Syrians and went up to Aphek to fight against Israel.
27 A sinovi Izrailjevi prebrojaše se, i ponesavši hrane iziđoše pred njih. I stadoše u logor sinovi Izrailjevi prema njima, kao dva mala stada koza, a Sirci behu prekrilili zemlju.
27 The children of Israel were mustered and given provisions, and went against them. The children of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of young goats, but the Syrians filled the country.
28 Tada dođe čovek Božji, i progovori caru Izrailjevom, i reče: Ovako veli Gospod: Što Sirci rekoše da je Gospod gorski Bog a nije Bog poljski, zato ću ti dati u ruke sve ovo mnoštvo veliko da znate da sam ja Gospod.
28 A man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel, and said, “Yahweh says, ‘Because the Syrians have said, “Yahweh is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys,” therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am Yahweh.’”
29 I stajahu u logoru jedni prema drugima sedam dana; a sedmog dana pobiše se, i sinovi Izrailjevi pobiše Siraca sto hiljada pešaka u jedan dan.
29 They encamped opposite each other for seven days. Then on the seventh day the battle was joined; and the children of Israel killed one hundred thousand footmen of the Syrians in one day.
30 A ostali pobegoše u grad Afek, i pade zid na dvadeset i sedam hiljada ljudi koji behu ostali. I Ven-Adad pobegav u grad uđe u najtajniju klet.
30 But the rest fled to Aphek, into the city; and the wall fell on twenty-seven thousand men who were left. Ben Hadad fled and came into the city, into an inner room.
31 A sluge mu rekoše: Evo čuli smo da su carevi doma Izrailjevog milostivi carevi; da vežemo kostret oko sebe i da metnemo uzice sebi oko vratova, pa da iziđemo pred cara Izrailjevog, da ako ostavi u životu dušu tvoju.
31 His servants said to him, “See now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings. Please let us put sackcloth on our bodies and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel. Maybe he will save your life.”
32 I vezaše kostret oko sebe, i metnuše uzice sebi oko vratova, i dođoše k caru Izrailjevom i rekoše: Sluga tvoj Ven-Adad veli: Ostavi u životu dušu moju. A on reče: Je li još živ? Brat mi je.
32 So they put sackcloth on their bodies and ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel, and said, “Your servant Ben Hadad says, ‘Please let me live.’” He said, “Is he still alive? He is my brother.”
33 A ljudi uzeše to za dobar znak, i odmah da bi ga uhvatili za reč rekoše: Brat je tvoj Ven-Adad. A on reče: Idite, dovedite ga. Tada Ven-Adad iziđe k njemu; a on ga posadi na svoja kola.
33 Now the men observed diligently and hurried to take this phrase; and they said, “Your brother Ben Hadad.” Then he said, “Go, bring him.” Then Ben Hadad came out to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot.
34 Tada mu reče Ven-Adad: Gradove koje je uzeo otac moj tvom ocu, vratiću, i načini sebi ulice u Damasku kao što je otac moj učinio u Samariji. A on odgovori: S tom verom otpustiću te. I učini veru s njim, i otpusti ga.
34 Ben Hadad said to him, “The cities which my father took from your father I will restore. You shall make streets for yourself in Damascus, as my father made in Samaria.” “I”, said Ahab, “will let you go with this covenant.” So he made a covenant with him and let him go.
35 Tada jedan između sinova proročkih reče drugom po reči Gospodnjoj: Bij me. Ali ga onaj ne hte biti.
35 A certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow by Yahweh’s word, “Please strike me!” The man refused to strike him.
36 A on mu reče: Što ne posluša glas Gospodnji, zato, evo kad otideš od mene, lav će te zaklati. I kad otide od njega, sukobi ga lav i zakla ga.
36 Then he said to him, “Because you have not obeyed Yahweh’s voice, behold, as soon as you have departed from me, a lion will kill you.” As soon as he had departed from him, a lion found him and killed him.
37 Opet, našav drugog reče mu: Bij me. A onaj ga izbi i izrani ga.
37 Then he found another man, and said, “Please strike me.” The man struck him and wounded him.
38 Tada otide prorok i stade na put kuda će car proći, i nagrdi se pepelom po licu.
38 So the prophet departed and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with his headband over his eyes.
39 A kad car prolažaše, on viknu cara i reče: Tvoj sluga beše izašao u boj, a jedan došavši dovede mi čoveka i reče: Čuvaj ovog čoveka; ako li ga nestane, biće tvoja duša za njegovu dušu, ili ćeš platiti talanat srebra.
39 As the king passed by, he cried to the king, and he said, “Your servant went out into the middle of the battle; and behold, a man came over and brought a man to me, and said, ‘Guard this man! If by any means he is missing, then your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.’
40 A kad tvoj sluga imaše posla tamo amo, njega nesta. Tada mu reče car Izrailjev: To ti je sud, sam si odsudio.
40 As your servant was busy here and there, he was gone.” The king of Israel said to him, “So shall your judgment be. You yourself have decided it.”
41 A on brže ubrisa pepeo s lica, i car Izrailjev pozna ga da je jedan od proroka.
41 He hurried, and took the headband away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized that he was one of the prophets.
42 A on mu reče: Ovako veli Gospod: Što si pustio iz ruku čoveka kog sam ja osudio da se istrebi, duša će tvoja biti za njegovu dušu i narod tvoj za njegov narod.
42 He said to him, “Yahweh says, ‘Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life will take the place of his life, and your people take the place of his people.’”
43 I otide car Izrailjev kući svojoj zlovoljan i ljutit, i dođe u Samariju.
43 The king of Israel went to his house sullen and angry, and came to Samaria.
