BOG uznosi Iliju u nebo
2 Prije nego što je BOG uznio Iliju u vihoru na nebo, Ilija i Elizej krenuli su u Gilgal.
2 Ilija je rekao Elizeju: »Molim te, ostani ovdje. BOG me šalje dalje u Betel.«
No Elizej mu odgovori: »Zaklinjem se i BOGU i tebi, neću te ostaviti.«
I tako su zajedno otišli dalje u Betel.
3 Družina proroka[a] iz Betela dočekala je Elizeja. Pitali su ga: »Znaš li da će ti BOG danas oduzeti gospodara?«
»Znam«, odgovorio je Elizej, »ali ne govorite o tome.«
4 A Ilija je rekao Elizeju: »Molim te, ostani ovdje. BOG me šalje dalje u Jerihon.«
Elizej je odgovorio: »Zaklinjem se i BOGU i tebi, neću te ostaviti.«
I otišli su zajedno dalje u Jerihon.
5 Družina proroka iz Jerihona dočekala je Elizeja. Pitali su ga: »Znaš li da će ti BOG danas oduzeti gospodara?«
»Znam«, odgovorio je on, »ali ne govorite o tome.«
6 Ilija je rekao Elizeju: »Molim te, ostani ovdje. BOG me šalje dalje do rijeke Jordan.«
On je odgovorio: »Zaklinjem se i BOGU i tebi, neću te ostaviti.«
Njih su dvojica nastavila zajedno dalje.
7 Pratila su ih pedesetorica iz proročke družine. Stali su podalje od mjesta gdje su se Ilija i Elizej zaustavili na Jordanu. 8 Ilija je uzeo svoj ogrtač, smotao ga i njime udario po vodi. Voda se razdijelila pa su njih dvojica prešla po suhome.
9 Kad su prešli rijeku, Ilija je rekao Elizeju: »Reci mi što još mogu učiniti za tebe prije nego što me uzme BOG.«
»Neka na meni bude dvostruka mjera tvoga duha«, odgovori Elizej.
10 »Puno tražiš«, rekao je Ilija. »Ipak, ako budeš vidio kad me BOG uzeo, dobit ćeš što si tražio. Ako me ne budeš vidio, nećeš niti dobiti što si tražio.«
11 I dok su još tako hodali i razgovarali, odjednom su se pojavila vatrena kola s konjima i razdvojila ih. Zatim je vihor podigao Iliju u nebo.
12 Elizej je to vidio i povikao: »Oče moj! Oče moj! Kola i konjanici Izraelovi!«
Nakon toga više nije vidio Iliju. Zgrabio je svoju odjeću i od tuge je razderao napola.
13 Potom je podigao Ilijin ogrtač, koji je bio na tlu, pa se vratio i stao na obalu Jordana. 14 Tada je Ilijinim ogrtačem udario po vodi.
»Gdje je BOG, Ilijin Bog?« pitao je.
Kad je udario, voda se razdvojila nalijevo i nadesno, a Elizej je prešao rijeku.
Proroci traže Iliju
15 Kad su to vidjeli proroci iz Jerihona, rekli su: »Ilijin je duh sad na Elizeju.«
Krenuli su mu ususret i poklonili se pred njim do zemlje.
16 »Slušaj«, rekli su. »S nama, tvojim slugama, pedesetorica je dobrih ljudi. Molimo te, neka idu i traže tvoga gospodara. Možda ga je Božji Duh podigao i spustio na neku planinu ili u neku dolinu.«
»Ne šaljite ih!« odgovorio je Elizej. 17 No uporno su ga nagovarali sve dok ga nisu posramili.
Zato je rekao: »Pošaljite ih!«
Pedesetorica su tri dana tražila Iliju, ali ga nisu pronašla.
18 Zatim su se vratili k Elizeju, koji je ostao u Jerihonu, a on im je odvratio: »Zar vam nisam rekao da ne idete?«
Elizejevo čudo s izvorom vode
19 Mještani grada rekli su Elizeju: »Vidiš, gospodaru, da je ovaj grad na lijepome mjestu, ali voda je loša pa je zemlja neplodna.«
20 Odgovorio im je: »Donesite mi novu, nekorištenu posudu i u nju stavite sol.«
Donijeli su posudu Elizeju.
21 On je otišao na izvor i u njega bacio sol. Pritom je rekao: »Ovako govori BOG: ‘Činim ovu vodu čistom. Odsad više neće donositi smrt i neplodnost.’«
22 Tako je voda postala čista i ostala takvom sve do danas, kao što je izjavio Elizej.
Dječaci se rugaju Elizeju
23 Odande je Elizej krenuo u Betel.
Dok je hodao putem, neki su dječaci izašli iz grada i rugali mu se: »Odlazi, ćelavi! Odlazi, ćelavi!«
24 On se okrenuo, pogledao ih i prokleo u BOŽJE ime. Tada su iz šume izašle dvije medvjedice i rastrgale četrdeset i dvojicu dječaka. 25 Elizej je potom produžio na brdo Karmel, a odande se vratio u Samariju.

Elijah Taken Up to Heaven
2 When the Lord was about to take(A) Elijah up to heaven in a whirlwind,(B) Elijah and Elisha(C) were on their way from Gilgal.(D) 2 Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here;(E) the Lord has sent me to Bethel.”
But Elisha said, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.”(F) So they went down to Bethel.
3 The company(G) of the prophets at Bethel came out to Elisha and asked, “Do you know that the Lord is going to take your master from you today?”
“Yes, I know,” Elisha replied, “so be quiet.”
4 Then Elijah said to him, “Stay here, Elisha; the Lord has sent me to Jericho.(H)”
And he replied, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went to Jericho.
5 The company(I) of the prophets at Jericho went up to Elisha and asked him, “Do you know that the Lord is going to take your master from you today?”
“Yes, I know,” he replied, “so be quiet.”
6 Then Elijah said to him, “Stay here;(J) the Lord has sent me to the Jordan.”(K)
And he replied, “As surely as the Lord lives and as you live, I will not leave you.”(L) So the two of them walked on.
7 Fifty men from the company of the prophets went and stood at a distance, facing the place where Elijah and Elisha had stopped at the Jordan. 8 Elijah took his cloak,(M) rolled it up and struck(N) the water with it. The water divided(O) to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry(P) ground.
9 When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, “Tell me, what can I do for you before I am taken from you?”
“Let me inherit a double(Q) portion of your spirit,”(R) Elisha replied.
10 “You have asked a difficult thing,” Elijah said, “yet if you see me when I am taken from you, it will be yours—otherwise, it will not.”
11 As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire(S) and horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven(T) in a whirlwind.(U) 12 Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots(V) and horsemen of Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more. Then he took hold of his garment and tore(W) it in two.
13 Elisha then picked up Elijah’s cloak that had fallen from him and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. 14 He took the cloak(X) that had fallen from Elijah and struck(Y) the water with it. “Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?” he asked. When he struck the water, it divided to the right and to the left, and he crossed over.
15 The company(Z) of the prophets from Jericho, who were watching, said, “The spirit(AA) of Elijah is resting on Elisha.” And they went to meet him and bowed to the ground before him. 16 “Look,” they said, “we your servants have fifty able men. Let them go and look for your master. Perhaps the Spirit(AB) of the Lord has picked him up(AC) and set him down on some mountain or in some valley.”
“No,” Elisha replied, “do not send them.”
17 But they persisted until he was too embarrassed(AD) to refuse. So he said, “Send them.” And they sent fifty men, who searched for three days but did not find him. 18 When they returned to Elisha, who was staying in Jericho, he said to them, “Didn’t I tell you not to go?”
Healing of the Water
19 The people of the city said to Elisha, “Look, our lord, this town is well situated, as you can see, but the water is bad and the land is unproductive.”
20 “Bring me a new bowl,” he said, “and put salt in it.” So they brought it to him.
21 Then he went out to the spring and threw(AE) the salt into it, saying, “This is what the Lord says: ‘I have healed this water. Never again will it cause death or make the land unproductive.’” 22 And the water has remained pure(AF) to this day, according to the word Elisha had spoken.
Elisha Is Jeered
23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered(AG) at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse(AH) on them in the name(AI) of the Lord. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys. 25 And he went on to Mount Carmel(AJ) and from there returned to Samaria.
