¹Ja vaata, Issanda käsul tuli üks jumalamees Juudast Peetelisse, siis kui Jerobeam seisis altari juures, et suitsutada.

¹And behold, there came a man of God from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, to Bethel; and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.

²Ta hüüdis Issanda käsul altari poole ja ütles: 'Altar, altar! Nõnda ütleb Issand: Vaata, Taaveti soole sünnib poeg, Joosija nimi, ja tema tapab su peal ohvriküngaste preestrid, kes suitsutavad su peal, ja su peal põletatakse inimluid!'

²And he cried against the altar by the word of Jehovah, and said, O altar, altar! thus saith Jehovah: Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he sacrifice the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burned upon thee.

³Ja ta andis sel päeval tunnustähe, öeldes: 'See on tunnustäheks, et Issand on kõnelnud: Vaata, altar lõhkeb ja tuhk, mis selle peal on, pillutatakse laiali.'

³And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign that Jehovah hath spoken: Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.

⁴Kui kuningas kuulis jumalamehe sõnu, mis too hüüdis Peeteli altari poole, siis sirutas Jerobeam altari juurest oma käe välja ja hüüdis: 'Võtke ta kinni!' Aga käsi, mille ta sirutas tema poole, kuivetus ja ta ei suutnud seda tagasi tõmmata.

⁴And it came to pass when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, that Jeroboam stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched out against him dried up, so that he could not bring it back again to him.

⁵Ja altar lõhkes ning tuhk pillutati altarilt, nagu oli tunnustäht, mille jumalamees oli andnud Issanda käsul.

⁵And the altar was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.

⁶Siis kuningas hakkas kõnelema ja ütles jumalamehele: 'Leevenda ometi Issanda, oma Jumala palet ja palveta minu eest, et ma saaksin käe tagasi!' Ja jumalamees leevendas Issanda palge ning kuningas sai oma käe tagasi ja see oli nagu ennegi.

⁶And the king answered and said to the man of God, Intreat now Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me again. And the man of God intreated Jehovah, and the king's hand was restored to him again, and became as before.

⁷Ja kuningas ütles jumalamehele: 'Tule koos minuga koju ja võta kehakinnitust, siis ma annan sulle ühe kingituse!'

⁷And the king said to the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a present.

⁸Aga jumalamees vastas kuningale: 'Kui sa annaksid mulle ka poole oma kojast, ei tuleks ma sinuga kaasa; siin paigas ei söö ma leiba ega joo vett.

⁸And the man of God said to the king, If thou wilt give me half thy house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place;

⁹Sest nõnda on mind kästud Issanda sõnaga, kes ütleb: Ära söö leiba ja ära joo vett, ja ära mine tagasi sedasama teed, mida sa tulid!'

⁹for so was it charged me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou shalt eat no bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way that thou shalt go.

¹⁰Ja ta läks teist teed ega läinud tagasi seda teed, mida mööda ta oli Peetelisse tulnud.

¹⁰So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he had come to Bethel.

¹¹Aga Peetelis elas keegi vana prohvet; tema pojad tulid ja jutustasid temale kõigist tegudest, mis jumalamees sel päeval Peetelis oli teinud, ja sõnadest, mis ta kuningale oli öelnud. Kui nad olid jutustanud oma isale,

¹¹Now there dwelt a certain old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words that he had spoken to the king, them they told also to their father.

¹²siis küsis nende isa neilt: 'Missugust teed ta läks?' Ja ta pojad olid näinud teed, mida mööda läks jumalamees, kes oli tulnud Juudamaalt.

¹²And their father said to them, Which way went he? for his sons had seen which way the man of God went, who came from Judah.

¹³Siis ta ütles oma poegadele: 'Saduldage mulle eesel!' Nad saduldasid temale eesli ja ta istus selle selga,

¹³And he said to his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass; and he rode thereon,

¹⁴läks jumalamehele järele ning leidis tolle istumas tamme all; ta küsis temalt: 'Kas sina oled see jumalamees, kes tuli Juudamaalt?' Ja ta vastas: 'Olen.'

¹⁴and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a terebinth; and he said to him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.

¹⁵Siis ta ütles temale: 'Tule koos minuga koju ja võta leiba!'

¹⁵And he said to him, Come home with me, and eat bread.

¹⁶Aga ta vastas: 'Ma ei või sinuga tagasi minna ega sinuga kaasa tulla; samuti ei söö ma leiba ega joo vett siin paigas koos sinuga.

¹⁶And he said, I cannot return with thee, nor go in with thee; neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place.

¹⁷Sest mulle on öeldud Issanda sõna läbi: Sa ei tohi seal leiba süüa ega vett juua; sa ei tohi tulla tagasi sedasama teed, mida sa läksid!'

¹⁷For it was said to me by the word of Jehovah, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou wentest.

¹⁸Aga ta ütles temale: 'Ka mina olen prohvet nagu sinagi, ja ingel kõneles mulle Issanda sõna läbi, öeldes: Vii ta enesega oma koju, et ta saaks leiba süüa ja vett juua!' Aga seda ta valetas temale.

¹⁸And he said to him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spoke to me by the word of Jehovah saying, Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread and drink water. He lied unto him.

¹⁹Siis läks jumalamees koos temaga tagasi ning sõi ta kojas leiba ja jõi vett.

¹⁹Then he went back with him, and ate bread in his house, and drank water.

²⁰Aga kui nad lauas istusid, tuli Issanda sõna prohvetile, kes oli ta tagasi toonud,

²⁰And it came to pass as they sat at the table, that the word of Jehovah came to the prophet that brought him back;

²¹ja ta hüüdis jumalamehele, kes oli tulnud Juudast, öeldes: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand: Sellepärast et sa oled vastu pannud Issanda suule ega ole pidanud käsku, mis Issand, su Jumal, sulle andis,

²¹and he cried to the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah: Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the word of Jehovah, and hast not kept the commandment that Jehovah thy God commanded thee,

²²vaid oled tagasi tulnud ja söönud leiba ja joonud vett paigas, mille kohta ma sulle ütlesin, et ära söö leiba ja ära joo vett, muidu ei saa su laip su vanemate hauda.'

²²but camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place of which he said to thee, Eat no bread and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come to the sepulchre of thy fathers.

²³Pärast seda kui ta oli söönud leiba, ja pärast seda kui ta oli joonud, saduldati temale eesel, prohveti oma, kes oli ta tagasi toonud.

²³And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled the ass for him, for the prophet that he had brought back;

²⁴Ja kui ta läks, siis juhtus temale tee peal vastu lõvi ja see surmas tema; ta laip oli paisatud teele ja eesel seisis selle kõrval, ka lõvi seisis laiba kõrval.

²⁴and he departed. And a lion met him by the way and slew him; and his corpse was cast in the way, and the ass stood by it; the lion also stood by the corpse.

²⁵Ja vaata, mehed läksid mööda ja nägid teele paisatud laipa ja lõvi seisvat laiba kõrval. Nad tulid ja jutustasid sellest linnas, kus vana prohvet elas.

²⁵And behold, men passed by, and saw the corpse cast in the way and the lion standing by the corpse; and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.

²⁶Kui prohvet, kes oli ta teelt tagasi toonud, kuulis seda, siis ta ütles: 'See on see jumalamees, kes pani vastu Issanda sõnale. Sellepärast andis Issand tema lõvi küüsi, ja see on tema maha murdnud ning surmanud, nagu oli Issanda sõna, mis ta oli temale öelnud.'

²⁶And the prophet that brought him back from the way heard [of it] and said, It is the man of God who was disobedient to the word of Jehovah; therefore Jehovah has delivered him to the lion, which has torn him and slain him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke to him.

²⁷Ja ta rääkis oma poegadega, öeldes: 'Saduldage mulle eesel!' Ja nad saduldasid.

²⁷And he spoke to his sons saying, Saddle me the ass; and they saddled it.

²⁸Siis ta läks ning leidis tema laiba teele paisatuna, laiba kõrval aga seisid eesel ja lõvi; lõvi ei olnud laipa söönud ega eeslit maha murdnud.

²⁸And he went and found his corpse cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the corpse: the lion had not eaten the corpse, nor torn the ass.

²⁹Prohvet tõstis siis jumalamehe laiba üles, pani selle eesli selga ja viis tagasi; ja vana prohvet tuli linna leinakaebust tegema ja teda matma.

²⁹And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back; and the old prophet came into the city, to mourn and to bury him.

³⁰Ta pani tema laiba oma hauda ja nad tegid temale leinakaebust: 'Oh häda, mu vend!'

³⁰And he laid his corpse in his own sepulchre; and they mourned over him [saying], Alas, my brother!

³¹Ja pärast seda kui ta oli tema matnud, rääkis ta oma poegadega, öeldes: 'Kui mina suren, siis matke mind hauda, kuhu jumalamees on maetud; pange minu luud tema luude kõrvale!

³¹And it came to pass after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons saying, When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.

³²Sest see asi sünnib tõesti, mis ta Issanda käsul hüüdis Peetelis oleva altari ja kõigi Samaaria linnades olevate ohvrikünkakodade vastu.'

³²For the word that he cried by the word of Jehovah against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high places that are in the cities of Samaria, shall certainly come to pass.

³³Pärast seda lugu ei pöördunud Jerobeam ometi mitte oma kurjalt teelt, vaid seadis jälle ohvriküngaste preestreid igasugu rahvast; kes aga soovis, selle käe ta täitis ja see sai ohvrikünka preestriks.

³³After this thing Jeroboam turned not from his evil way, but made again from all classes of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became [one] of the priests of the high places.

³⁴Ja see asi sai patuks Jerobeami soole, põhjuseks seda hukata ja maa pealt hävitada.

³⁴And by this thing there was sin on the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
