¹A hľa, v tom prišiel muž Boží z Judska so slovom Hospodinovým do Bét-ela, keď práve stál Jeroboám nad oltárom, aby kadil.

¹And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar — to make perfume;

²A zavolal proti oltáru slovom Hospodinovým a riekol: Oltáru, oltáru, takto hovorí Hospodin: Hľa, syn sa narodí domu Dávidovmu, ktorému bude meno Joziáš, ktorý bude obetovať na tebe kňazov výšin, ktorí kadia na tebe kadivo, i ľudské kosti budú páliť na tebe.

²and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, `Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David — Josiah his name — and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on thee.`

³A dal i znamenie toho istého dňa povediac: Toto je znamenie, že Hospodin hovoril skrze mňa: Hľa, oltár sa roztrhne, a vysype sa popol, ktorý je na ňom.

³And he hath given on that day a sign, saying, `This [is] the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that [are] on it.`

⁴A stalo sa, keď počul kráľ slovo muža Božieho, ktoré volal proti oltáru v Bét-ele, že Jeroboám vystrel svoju ruku sponad oltára a povedal: Chyťte ho! Ale uschla jeho ruka, ktorú vystrel proti nemu, a nemohol ju zase stiahnuť k sebe.

⁴And it cometh to pass, at the king`s hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, `Catch him;` and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto him,

⁵A oltár sa roztrhol, a vysypal sa popol z oltára podľa znamenia, ktoré dal muž Boží slovom Hospodinovým.

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

⁶Vtedy odpovedal kráľ a riekol mužovi Božiemu: Upokoj, prosím, tvár Hospodina, svojho Boha, a modli sa za mňa, aby sa zase vrátila moja ruka ku mne. A tak modliac sa upokojil muž Boží tvár Hospodinovu, a ruka kráľova sa vrátila k nemu a bola jako predtým.

⁶And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, `Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;` and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.

⁷Potom hovoril kráľ mužovi Božiemu: Poď so mnou do domu a posilni sa pokrmom, a dám ti dar.

⁷And the king speaketh unto the man of God, `Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.`

⁸Ale muž Boží povedal kráľovi: Ani keby si mi dal polovicu svojho domu, nevošiel by som s tebou ani by som nejedol chleba ani by som nepil vody na tomto mieste.

⁸And the man of God saith unto the king, `If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;

⁹Lebo tak mi prikázal slovom Hospodinovým povediac: Nebudeš jesť chleba ani nebudeš piť vody ani sa nevrátiš cestou, ktorou si ta išiel.

⁹for so He commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.`

¹⁰A tak odišiel inou cestou a nevrátil sa cestou, ktorou bol prišiel do Bét-ela.

¹⁰And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.

¹¹Ale býval v Bét-ele nejaký starý prorok, ktorého syn prišiel a rozprával mu všetko to, čo učinil muž Boží toho dňa v Bét-ele, i slová, ktoré hovoril kráľovi, a porozprával ich svojmu otcovi.

¹¹And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son cometh and recounteth to him all the deed that the man of God hath done to-day in Beth-El, the words that he hath spoken unto the king, — yea, they recount them to their father.

¹²A ich otec im hovoril: Kde ktorou cestou išiel? A jeho synovia videli cestu, ktorou išiel muž Boží, ktorý to bol prišiel z Judska.

¹²And their father saith unto them, `Where [is] this — the way he hath gone?` and his sons see the way that the man of God hath gone who came from Judah.

¹³Vtedy povedal svojim synom: Osedlajte mi osla, a osedlali mu osla, a sadol na neho.

¹³And he saith unto his sons, `Saddle for me the ass,` and they saddle for him the ass, and he rideth on it,

¹⁴A išiel za mužom Božím a našiel ho sedieť pod tým dubom a riekol mu: Či si to ty ten muž Boží, ktorý prišiel z Judska? A on odpovedal: Som.

¹⁴and goeth after the man of God, and findeth him sitting under the oak, and saith unto him, `Art thou the man of God who hast come from Judah?` and he saith, `I [am].`

¹⁵A riekol mu: Poď so mnou do domu a pojedz chlieb.

¹⁵And he saith unto him, `Come with me to the house, and eat bread.`

¹⁶Ale on povedal: Nemôžem sa vrátiť s tebou a vojsť s tebou ani nebudem jesť chleba ani nebudem piť u teba vody na tomto mieste.

¹⁶And he saith, `I am not able to turn back with thee, and to go in with thee, nor do I eat bread or drink with thee water in this place,

¹⁷Lebo mám prikázané slovom Hospodinovým: Nebudeš jesť chleba ani tam nebudeš piť vody, nevrátiš sa tak, aby si išiel cestou, ktorou si ta išiel.

¹⁷for a word [is] unto me by the word of Jehovah, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink there water, thou dost not turn back to go in the way in which thou camest.`

¹⁸Na to mu riekol: I ja som prorok ako ty, a anjel mi hovoril slovom Hospodinovým a riekol: Vráť ho so sebou do svojho domu, aby pojedol chlieb a napil sa vody. Luhal mu.

¹⁸And he saith to him, `I also [am] a prophet like thee, and a messenger spake unto me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, and he doth eat bread and drink water;` — he hath lied to him.

¹⁹A vrátil sa s ním a jedol chlieb v jeho dome a pil vodu.

¹⁹And he turneth back with him, and eateth bread in his house, and drinketh water.

²⁰A stalo sa, keď oni sedeli za stolom, že sa stalo slovo Hospodinovo k prorokovi, ktorý ho vrátil,

²⁰And it cometh to pass — they are sitting at the table — and a word of Jehovah is unto the prophet who brought him back,

²¹a zavolal na muža Božieho, ktorý prišiel z Judska, a riekol: Takto hovorí Hospodin: Preto, že si učinil na odpor tomu, čo povedaly ústa Hospodinove, a neostríhal si prikázania, ktoré ti prikázal Hospodin, tvoj Bôh,

²¹and he calleth unto the man of God who came from Judah, saying, `Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the command that Jehovah thy God charged thee,

²²ale si sa vrátil a jedol si chlieb a pil si vodu na mieste, o ktorom ti hovoril: Nejedz tam chleba ani nepi vody, nevojde tvoje mŕtve telo do hrobu tvojich otcov.

²²and turnest back and dost eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said unto thee, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water — thy carcase cometh not in unto the burying-place of thy fathers.`

²³A stalo sa, keď zjedol chlieb a keď vypil, že mu osedlal osla, prorokovi, ktorého bol vrátil.

²³And it cometh to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddleth for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back,

²⁴A išiel, a našiel ho lev na ceste a usmrtil ho, a jeho mŕtve telo bolo povrhnuté na ceste, a osol stál vedľa neho, i lev stál vedľa mŕtvoly.

²⁴and he goeth, and a lion findeth him in the way, and putteth him to death, and his carcase is cast in the way, and the ass is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcase.

²⁵A hľa, nejakí mužovia išli tade a videli mŕtvolu, povrhnutú na ceste, i ľva stáť vedľa mŕtvoly, a prijdúc hovorili to v meste, v ktorom býval ten starý prorok.

²⁵And lo, men are passing by, and see the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcase, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.

²⁶Keď to počul prorok, ktorý ho to bol vrátil s cesty, povedal: To je ten muž Boží, ktorý sa sprotivil ústam Hospodinovým; preto ho vydal Hospodin ľvovi, a dolámal ho a usmrtil ho podľa slova Hospodinovho, ktoré mu hovoril.

²⁶And the prophet who brought him back out of the way heareth and saith, `It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth him to the lion, and it destroyeth him, and putteth him to death, according to the word of Jehovah that he spake to him.`

²⁷Potom hovoril svojim synom a riekol: Osedlajte mi osla. A osedlali.

²⁷And he speaketh unto his sons saying, `Saddle for me the ass,` and they saddle [it].

²⁸A odíduc našiel jeho mŕtvolu. povrhnutú na ceste, a osla a ľva stáť vedľa mŕtvoly. Lev nezožral mŕtvoly ani neskrúšil osla.

²⁸And he goeth and findeth his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion are standing near the carcase — the lion hath not eaten the carcase nor destroyed the ass.

²⁹Vtedy vzal prorok mŕtve telo muža Božieho, vyložil ho na osla a dopravil ho zpät. A tak vošiel starý prorok do mesta, aby smútil a aby ho pochoval.

²⁹And the prophet taketh up the carcase of the man of God, and placeth it on the ass, and bringeth it back, and the old prophet cometh in unto the city to mourn and to bury him,

³⁰A položil jeho mŕtve telo do svojho hrobu, a smútil nad ním hovoriac: Jaj, môj brat!

³⁰and he placeth his carcase in his own grave, and they mourn for him, `Oh, my brother!`

³¹A stalo sa, keď už ho bol pochoval, že povedal svojim synom a riekol: Keď zomriem, pochovajte ma do hrobu, v ktorom je pochovaný muž Boží, vedľa jeho kostí položte moje kosti.

³¹And it cometh to pass, after his burying him, that he speaketh unto his sons, saying, `At my death — ye have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; near his bones place my bones;

³²Lebo istotne sa stane to, čo volal slovom Hospodinovým proti oltáru, ktorý je v Bét-ele, a proti všetkým domom výšin, ktoré sú v mestách Samárie.

³²for the word certainly cometh to pass that he called by the word of Jehovah concerning the altar which [is] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.`

³³Po tejto udalosti sa nevrátil Jeroboám so svojej zlej cesty, ale zase narobil kňazov výšin z najposlednejších z ľudu. Kto len chcel, každému naplnil ruku a tak ho vysvätil, a bol kňazom výšin.

³³After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.

³⁴A tak to bolo touto vecou, že dom Jeroboámov hrešil, a to tak, aby bol vyplienený a zahladený s povrchu zeme.

³⁴And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
