2 Chronicles 18

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Now Josaphat was rich and very glorious, and was joined by affinity to Achab.	1 Jošafat je stekao veliko bogatstvo i slavu te se sprijateljio s Ahabom.
2 And he went down to him after some years to Samaria: and Achab at his coming killed sheep and oxen in abundance for him and the people that came with him: and he persuaded him to go up to Ramoth Galaad.	2 Poslije nekoliko godina došao je k Ahabu u Samariju. Ahab nakla mnogo sitne stoke i goveda njemu i ljudima što su bili s njim i nagovaraše ga da pođe na Ramot Gilead.
3 And Achab king of Israel said to Josaphat king of Juda: Come with me to Ramoth Galaad. And he answered him: Thou art as I am, and my people as thy people, and we will be with thee in the war.	3 Izraelski kralj Ahab upita judejskoga kralja Jošafata: »Hoćeš li poći sa mnom na Ramot Gilead?« On odgovori: »Ja sam kao i ti, moj je narod kao i tvoj; s tobom ćemo u rat.«
4 And Josaphat said to the king of Israel: Inquire, I beseech thee, at present the word of the Lord.	4 Jošafat još reče kralju izraelskom: »De, posavjetuj se prije s Jahvom!«
5 So the king of Israel gathered together of the prophets four hundred men, and he said to them: Shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or shall we forbear ? But they said: Go up, and God will deliver it into the king's hand.	5 Tada kralj izraelski sakupi proroke, njih četiri stotine, i upita ih: »Hoćemo li zavojštiti na Ramot Gilead ili da se okanim toga?« Oni odgovoriše: »Idi, jer će ga Bog predati kralju u ruke.«
6 And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire also of him?	6 Ali Jošafat upita: »Ima li ovdje još koji prorok Jahvin da i njega upitamo?«
7 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: There is one man, of whom we may ask the will of the Lord: but I hate him, for he never prophesieth good to me, but always evil: and it is Micheas the son of Jemla. And Josaphat said: Speak not thus, O king.	7 Kralj izraelski odgovori Jošafatu: »Ima još jedan čovjek preko koga bismo mogli upitati Jahvu, ali ga mrzim jer mi ne proriče dobra, nego uvijek samo zlo; to je Mihej, sin Jimlin.« Jošafat reče: »Neka kralj ne govori tako!«
8 And the king of Israel called one of the eunuchs, and said to him : Call quickly Micheas the son of Jemla.	8 Tada kralj izraelski dozva jednoga dvoranina i reče mu: »Brže dovedi Jimlina sina Miheja!«
9 Now the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, both sat on their thrones, clothed in royal robes, and they sat in the open court by the gate of Samaria, and all the prophets prophesied before them.	9 Izraelski kralj i judejski kralj Jošafat sjedili su svaki na svojem prijestolju, u svečanim haljinama, na gumnu pred Samarijskim vratima, a proroci proricali pred njima.
10 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana made him horns of iron, and said: Thus saith the Lord: With these shalt thou push Syria, till thou destroy it.	10 Kenaanin sin Sidkija napravi sebi željezne rogove i reče: »Ovako veli Jahve: ‘Njima ćeš bosti Aramejce dokle ih god ne zatreš.’«
11 And all the prophets prophesied in like manner, and said: Go up to Ramoth Galaad, and thou shalt prosper, and the Lord will deliver them into the king's hand.	11 Tako su i svi drugi proroci proricali govoreći: »Idi na Ramot Gilead, uspjet ćeš: Jahve će ga predati kralju u ruke.«
12 And the messenger that went to call Micheas, said to him: Behold the words of all the prophets with one mouth declare good to the king: I beseech thee therefore let not thy word disagree with them, and speak thou also good success.	12 Glasnik koji bijaše otišao da zove Miheja reče mu: »Evo, svi proroci složno proriču dobro kralju. Govori i ti kao jedan od njih i proreci uspjeh!«
13 And Micheas answered him: As the Lord liveth, whatsoever my God shall say to me, that will I speak.	13 Ali Mihej odvrati: »Živoga mi Jahve, govorit ću ono što mi Bog kaže!«
14 So he came to the king: and the king said to him: Micheas, shall we go to Ramoth Galaad to fight, or forbear? And he answered him: Go up, for all shall succeed prosperously, and the enemies shall be delivered into your hands.	14 Kad dođe pred kralja, upita ga kralj: »Miheju, da pođem u rat na Ramot Gilead ili da se okanim toga?« On odgovori: »Idite i uspjet ćete, jer će vam se predati u ruke!«
15 And the king said: I adjure thee again and again to say nothing but the truth to me, in the name of the Lord.	15 Nato mu kralj reče: »Koliko ću te puta zaklinjati da mi kažeš samo istinu u Jahvino ime?«
16 Then he said: I saw all Israel scattered in the mountains, like sheep without a shepherd : and the Lord said: These have no masters: let every man return to his own house in peace.	16 Tada Mihej odgovori: »Sav Izrael vidim rasut po gorama kao stado bez pastira. I Jahve veli: ‘Nemaju više gospodara, neka se u miru kući vrate!’«
17 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: Did I not tell thee that this man would not prophesy me any good, but evil?	17 Tada izraelski kralj reče Jošafatu: »Nisam li ti rekao da mi neće proreći dobro, nego zlo?«
18 Then he said: Hear ye therefore the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on the right hand and on the left.	18 A Mihej reče: »Zato čujte riječ Jahvinu. Vidio sam Jahvu gdje sjedi na prijestolju, a sva mu vojska nebeska stajaše zdesna i slijeva.
19 And the Lord said: Who shall deceive Achab king of Israel, that he may go up and fall in Ramoth Galaad? And when one spoke in this manner, and another otherwise:	19 Jahve upita: ‘Tko će zavesti izraelskoga kralja Ahaba da otiđe i padne u Ramot Gileadu?’ Jedan reče ovo, drugi ono.
20 There came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said: I will deceive him. And the Lord said to him: By what means wilt thou deceive him?	20 Tada uđe jedan duh, stade pred Jahvu i reče: ‘Ja ću ga zavesti!’ Jahve ga upita: ‘Kako?’
21 And he answered: I will go out, and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And the Lord said: Thou shalt deceive, and shalt prevail: go out, and do so.	21 On odvrati: ‘Izaći ću i bit ću lažljiv duh u ustima svih njegovih proroka.’ Jahve mu reče: ‘Ti ćeš ga zavesti. I uspjet ćeš. Idi i učini tako!’
22 Now therefore behold the Lord hath put a spirit of lying in the mouth of all thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.	22 Tako je, evo, Jahve stavio lažljiva duha u usta tvojim prorocima; ali ti Jahve navješćuje zlo.«
23 And Sedecias the son of Chanaana came, and struck Micheas on the cheek and said: Which way went the spirit of the Lord from me, to speak to thee?	23 Tada pristupi Kenaanin sin Sidkija i udari Miheja po obrazu pitajući: »Zar je Jahvin duh mene napustio da bi govorio s tobom?«
24 And Micheas said :Thou thyself shalt see in that day, when thou shalt go in from chamber to chamber, to hide thyself.	24 Mihej odvrati: »Vidjet ćeš onoga dana kad budeš bježao iz sobe u sobu da se sakriješ.«
25 And the king of Israel commanded, saying: Take Micheas, and carry him to Amen the governor of the city, and to Joas the son of Amelech,	25 Tada izraelski kralj naredi: »Uhvatite Miheja i odvedite ga gradskom zapovjedniku Amonu i kraljeviću Joašu.
26 And say: Thus saith the king: Put this fellow in prison, and give him bread and water in a small quantity till I return in peace.	26 Recite im: ‘Ovako veli kralj: Bacite ovoga u tamnicu i držite ga na suhu kruhu i vodi dok se sretno ne vratim.’«
27 And Micheas said: If thou return in peace, the Lord hath not spoken by me. And he said: Hear, all ye people.	27 Mihej reče: »Ako se doista sretno vratiš, onda nije Jahve govorio iz mene!« I nadoda: »Čujte, svi puci!«
28 So the king of Israel and Josaphat king of Juda went up to Ramoth Galaad.	28 Izraelski kralj i judejski kralj Jošafat krenuše na Ramot Gilead.
29 And the king of Israel said to Josaphat: I will change my dress, and so I will go to the battle, but put thou on thy own garments. And the king of Israel having changed his dress, went to the battle.	29 Izraelski kralj reče Jošafatu: »Ja ću se preobući i onda ući u boj, a ti ostani u svojoj odjeći!« Preobuče se tada izraelski kralj i oni krenuše u boj.
30 Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his cavalry, saying: Fight ye not with small, or great, but with the king of Israel only.	30 Aramejski kralj naredi zapovjednicima bojnih kola: »Ne udarajte ni na maloga ni na velikoga, nego jedino na izraelskoga kralja!«
31 So when the captains of the cavalry saw Josaphat, they said: This is the king of Israel. And they surrounded him to attack him: but he cried to the Lord, and he helped him, and turned them away from him.	31 Kad zapovjednici bojnih kola ugledaše Jošafata, rekoše: »To je izraelski kralj!« I krenuše na nj da udare. Ali Jošafat povika za pomoć te mu Jahve pomože i odvrati ih od njega.
32 For when the captains of the cavalry saw, that he was not the king of Israel, they left him.	32 Kad zapovjednici bojnih kola vidješe da to nije izraelski kralj, okrenuše se od njega.
33 And it happened that one of the people shot an arrow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the neck and the shoulders, and he said to his chariot man: Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the battle, for I am wounded.	33 Jedan nasumce odape i ustrijeli izraelskoga kralja između nabora na pojasu i oklopa. Kralj reče vozaču: »Potegni uzdu i izvedi me iz boja jer sam ranjen.«
34 And the fight was ended that day: but the king of Israel stood in his chariot against the Syrians until the evening, and died at the sunset.	34 Boj je onoga dana bio sve žešći, ali se izraelski kralj držao uspravno na bojnim kolima prema Aramejcima sve do večeri. Umro je o zalasku sunca.
