¹Juuda kuninga Joase, Ahasja poja kahekümne kolmandal aastal sai Jooahas, Jehu poeg, Samaarias seitsmeteistkümneks aastaks Iisraeli kuningaks.

¹In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.

²Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis ja jätkas Nebati poja Jerobeami patte, millega too oli saatnud Iisraeli pattu tegema; neist ta ei loobunud.

²He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he didn’t depart from it.

³Siis Issanda viha süttis põlema Iisraeli vastu ja ta andis neid kogu aja Süüria kuninga Hasaeli kätte ja Hasaeli poja Ben-Hadadi kätte.

³The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.

⁴Aga Jooahas leevendas Issanda palet ja Issand kuulis teda, sest ta nägi Iisraeli kitsikust, kui Süüria kuningas neid rõhus.

⁴Jehoahaz begged Yahweh, and Yahweh listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Syria oppressed them.

⁵Ja Issand andis Iisraelile päästja ja nad vabanesid süürlaste käe alt; ja Iisraeli lapsed elasid oma telkides nagu ennegi.

⁵(Yahweh gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.

⁶Aga nad ei loobunud Jerobeami soo pattudest, millega too oli saatnud Iisraeli pattu tegema, vaid nad käisid neis ja Samaarias jäi ka Aðera kuju püsima.

⁶Nevertheless they didn’t depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin, but walked therein: and there remained the Asherah also in Samaria.)

⁷Kuid Jooahasele ei olnud jäetudki rohkem rahvast kui viiskümmend ratsanikku, kümme sõjavankrit ja kümme tuhat jalameest, sest Süüria kuningas oli muud hukanud ja teinud otse rehetolmuks.

⁷For he didn’t leave to Jehoahaz of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.

⁸Ja mis veel tuleks öelda Jooahasest ja kõigest, mis ta tegi, ja tema vägitegudest, eks sellest ole kirjutatud Iisraeli kuningate Ajaraamatus?

⁸Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

⁹Ja Jooahas läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja ta maeti Samaariasse; ja tema poeg Joas sai tema asemel kuningaks.

⁹Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his place.

¹⁰Juuda kuninga Joase kolmekümne seitsmendal aastal sai Jooahase poeg Joas Samaarias kuueteistkümneks aastaks Iisraeli kuningaks.

¹⁰In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria for sixteen years.

¹¹Tema tegi kurja Issanda silmis: ta ei loobunud ühestki Nebati poja Jerobeami patust, millega too oli saatnud Iisraeli pattu tegema, vaid käis nendes.

¹¹He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh; he didn’t depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; but he walked therein.

¹²Ja mis veel tuleks öelda Joasest ja kõigest, mis ta tegi, ja tema vägitegudest, kuidas ta sõdis Juuda kuninga Amasja vastu, eks sellest ole kirjutatud Iisraeli kuningate Ajaraamatus?

¹²Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

¹³Ja Joas läks magama oma vanemate juurde ning Jerobeam istus tema aujärjele; ja Joas maeti Samaariasse Iisraeli kuningate juurde.

¹³Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat on his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

¹⁴Aga kui Eliisa oli haigestunud tõppe, millesse ta suri, siis tuli Iisraeli kuningas Joas tema juurde ja nuttis tema palge juures ning ütles: 'Mu isa, mu isa! Iisraeli sõjavankrid ja tema ratsanikud!'

¹⁴Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness of which he died: and Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over him, and said, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!”

¹⁵Ja Eliisa ütles temale: 'Võta amb ja nooled!' Ja ta võttis enesele ammu ja nooled.

¹⁵Elisha said to him, “Take bow and arrows”; and he took to him bow and arrows.

¹⁶Siis Eliisa ütles Iisraeli kuningale: 'Pane oma käsi ammu peale!' Kui ta oli oma käe pannud, siis pani Eliisa oma käed kuninga käte peale

¹⁶He said to the king of Israel, “Put your hand on the bow”; and he put his hand on it. Elisha laid his hands on the king’s hands.

¹⁷ja ütles: 'Ava aken ida poole!' Ta avas, ja Eliisa ütles: 'Lase!' Ja ta lasi. Siis Eliisa ütles: 'Issanda võidunool, võidunool Süüria vastu! Sa lööd süürlasi Afekis, kuni nad on hävitatud.'

¹⁷He said, “Open the window eastward”; and he opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” and he shot. He said, “Yahweh’s arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Syria; for you shall strike the Syrians in Aphek, until you have consumed them.”

¹⁸Siis ta ütles: 'Võta nooled!' Ja kuningas võttis. Ja ta ütles Iisraeli kuningale: 'Löö vastu maad!' Kuningas lõi kolm korda ja peatus siis.

¹⁸He said, “Take the arrows”; and he took them. He said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground”; and he struck three times, and stopped.

¹⁹Aga jumalamees vihastas tema peale ja ütles: 'Sa oleksid pidanud lööma viis või kuus korda, siis sa oleksid süürlased sootuks maha löönud! Nüüd aga lööd sa süürlasi ainult kolm korda.'

¹⁹The man of God was angry with him, and said, “You should have struck five or six times. Then you would have struck Syria until you had consumed it, whereas now you shall strike Syria just three times.”

²⁰Siis Eliisa suri ja ta maeti. Igal aastal tulid maale moabide röövjõugud.

²⁰Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.

²¹Ja kord, kui maeti kedagi meest, vaata, siis nägid matjad ühte röövjõuku. Nad heitsid siis mehe Eliisa hauda, aga kui see puutus vastu Eliisa luid, siis ta ärkas ellu ja tõusis jalule.

²¹It happened, as they were burying a man, that behold, they spied a band; and they cast the man into the tomb of Elisha: and as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.

²²Hasael, Süüria kuningas, rõhus Iisraeli kogu Jooahase eluaja.

²²Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.

²³Aga Issand andis neile armu ja halastas nende peale ning pöördus nende poole oma lepingu pärast Aabrahami, Iisaki ja Jaakobiga ega tahtnud neid hävitada; ja ta ei ole neid tänini ära heitnud oma palge eest.

²³But Yahweh was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.

²⁴Kui Süüria kuningas Hasael suri, siis sai tema poeg Ben-Hadad tema asemel kuningaks.

²⁴Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his place.

²⁵Ja Joas, Jooahase poeg, võttis Hasaeli poja Ben-Hadadi käest tagasi linnad, mis too sõjaga oli võtnud tema isa Jooahase käest; kolm korda lõi Joas teda ja võttis tagasi Iisraeli linnad.

²⁵Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Joash struck him three times, and recovered the cities of Israel.
