< 1 Kraljevima 1 >
1 Kralj David bijaše ostario i odmakao u godinama; premda su ga pokrivali mnogim pokrivačima, nije se mogao ugrijati.
And king David [is] old, entering into days, and they cover him with garments, and he hath no heat,
2 Tada mu rekoše njegove sluge: “Trebalo bi potražiti za gospodara mladu djevojku koja bi dvorila kralja i služila mu: kad bude spavala na njegovu krilu, to će ugrijati kralja gospodara.”
and his servants say to him, 'Let them seek for my lord the king a young woman, a virgin, and she hath stood before the king, and is to him a companion, and hath lain in thy bosom, and my lord the king hath heat.'
3 Potražiše, dakle, lijepu djevojku po svoj zemlji izraelskoj; i nađoše Abišagu Šunamku te je dovedoše kralju.
And they seek a fair young woman in all the border of Israel, and find Abishag the Shunammite, and bring her in to the king,
4 Djevojka je bila izvanredno lijepa; njegovala je kralja i služila mu, ali je on ne upozna.
and the young woman [is] very very fair, and she is to the king a companion, and serveth him, and the king hath not known her.
5 Uto se Adonija, sin Hagitin, pooholi i pomisli: “Ja ću biti kralj!” Zato nabavi sebi kola i konjanika i pedeset ljudi koji su išli pred njim.
And Adonijah son of Haggith is lifting himself up, saying, 'I do reign;' and he prepareth for himself a chariot and horsemen, and fifty men running before him,
6 Njegov ga otac za svoga života nikad nije ukorio niti ga kad upitao: “Zašto tako činiš?” Bio je, osim toga, stasit i lijep, a mati ga rodila poslije Abšaloma.
and his father hath not grieved him [all] his days, saying, 'Wherefore thus hast thou done?' and he also [is] of a very good form, and [his mother] bare him after Absalom.
7 On se dogovarao s Joabom, sinom Sarvijinim, i sa svećenikom Ebjatarom, pa se obojica priključiše Adoniji.
And his words are with Joab son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, and they help after Adonijah;
8 Ali svećenik Sadok i Jojadin sin Benaja, prorok Natan, Šimej i Rei i junaci Davidovi ne pristadoše uz Adoniju.
and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty ones whom David hath, have not been with Adonijah.
9 Jednom nakla Adonija ovaca, volova i tovljene teladi za žrtvu kod Zoheledskog kamena, blizu izvora Rogela, te pozva svu svoju braću, sinove kraljeve, i sve Judejce u kraljevoj službi;
And Adonijah sacrificeth sheep and oxen and fatlings near the stone of Zoheleth, that [is] by En-Rogel, and calleth all his brethren, sons of the king, and for all the men of Judah, servants of the king;
10 ali ne pozva proroka Natana, ni Benaje, ni ostalih junaka, a ni svoga brata Salomona.
and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty ones, and Solomon his brother, he hath not called.
11 Tada reče Natan Bat-Šebi, majci Salomonovoj: “Zar nisi čula da je Adonija, sin Hagitin, postao kraljem, a da David, naš gospodar, o tome i ne zna?
And Nathan speaketh unto Bath-Sheba, mother of Solomon, saying, 'Hast thou not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith hath reigned, and our lord David hath not known?
12 Dođi da te savjetujem kako bi mogla spasiti život svoj i svoga sina Salomona.
and now, come, let me counsel thee, I pray thee, and deliver thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon;
13 Hajde, otiđi kralju Davidu i reci mu: 'Zar se nisi ti, gospodaru moj kralju, zakleo svojoj službenici govoreći: Tvoj sin Salomon kraljevat će poslije mene, i on će sjediti na mome prijestolju! Kako sada Adonija posta kraljem?'
go and enter in unto king David, and thou hast said unto him, Hast thou not, my lord, O king, sworn to thy handmaid, saying, Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne? and wherefore hath Adonijah reigned?
14 I dok ti budeš ondje i razgovorala se s kraljem, doći ću ja za tobom i potvrditi tvoje riječi.”
Lo, thou are yet speaking there with the king, and I come in after thee, and have completed thy words.'
15 Bat-Šeba ode kralju u odaje - a on je bio vrlo star i Abišaga Šunamka služila mu.
And Bath-Sheba cometh in unto the king, to the inner chamber, and the king [is] very aged, and Abishag the Shunammite is serving the king:
16 Pokloni mu se Bat-Šeba i pade ničice pred kraljem, a kralj upita: “Što želiš?”
and Bath-Sheba boweth and doth obeisance to the king, and the king saith, 'What — to thee?'
17 Ona mu odgovori: “Gospodaru, ti si se zakleo službenici svojoj Jahvom, Bogom svojim: 'Tvoj sin Salomon kraljevat će poslije mene, on će sjesti na moje prijestolje.'
And she saith to him, 'My lord, thou hast sworn by Jehovah thy God to thy handmaid: Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne;
18 A sada je, evo, Adonija postao kraljem, a ti, kralju, gospodaru moj, ništa o tome i ne znaš!
and now, lo, Adonijah hath reigned, and now, my lord, O king, thou hast not known;
19 Naklao je on mnogo volova, tovljene teladi i ovaca za žrtvu i pozvao je sve sinove kraljeve, svećenika Ebjatara i vojskovođu Joaba, ali slugu tvoga Salomona nije pozvao.
and he sacrificeth ox, and fatling, and sheep in abundance, and calleth for all the sons of the king, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab head of the host — and for Solomon thy servant he hath not called.
20 U tebe su sada, gospodaru moj i kralju, uprte oči svega Izraela da mu ti objaviš tko će te naslijediti na tvome prijestolju, kralju, gospodaru moj.
And thou, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel [are] on thee, to declare to them who doth sit on the throne of my lord the king after him;
21 Inače, čim počine kralj, gospodar moj, kraj svojih otaca, ja i moj sin Salomon bit ćemo krivci.”
and it hath been, when my lord the king lieth with his fathers, that I have been, I and my son Solomon — [reckoned] sinners.'
22 Dok je ona još govorila s kraljem, dođe prorok Natan.
And lo, she is yet speaking with the king, and Nathan the prophet hath come in;
23 Javiše kralju: “Ovdje je prorok Natan.” On uđe kralju i pade ničice pred njim.
and they declare to the king, saying, 'Lo, Nathan the prophet;' and he cometh in before the king, and boweth himself to the king, on his face to the earth.
24 Natan reče: “Gospodaru moj i kralju, jesi li ti odredio: 'Adonija će kraljevati poslije mene i sjedit će na mome prijestolju?'
And Nathan saith, 'My lord, O king, thou hast said, Adonijah doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne;
25 Jer evo danas je sišao i naklao volova, ugojene teladi i ovaca za žrtvu i pozvao je sve sinove kraljeve, vojskovođe i svećenika Ebjatara; eno ih gdje jedu i piju s njim i kliču: 'Živio kralj Adonija!'
for he hath gone down to-day, and doth sacrifice ox, and fatling, and sheep, in abundance, and calleth for all the sons of the king, and for the heads of the host, and for Abiathar the priest, and lo, they are eating and drinking before him, and they say, Let king Adonijah live!
26 Ali mene, tvoga slugu, svećenika Sadoka, a ni Benaju, sina Jojadina, ni tvoga slugu Salomona nije pozvao.
'And for me — me, thy servant, and for Zadok the priest, and for Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and for Solomon thy servant, he hath not called;
27 Zar se to dogodilo s voljom gospodara moga kralja, a da nisi obavijestio svoga vjernog sluge tko će biti nasljednik na prijestolju gospodara moga kralja?”
if from my lord the king this thing hath been, then thou hast not caused thy servant to know who doth sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.'
28 Tada progovori David i reče: “Pozovite mi Bat-Šebu!” Ona dođe kralju i stupi preda nj.
And king David answereth and saith, 'Call for me for Bath-Sheba;' and she cometh in before the king, and standeth before the king.
29 Kralj se tada zakle: “Tako mi Jahve živoga koji me izbavio iz svih nevolja!
And the king sweareth and saith, 'Jehovah liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity;
30 Danas ću ti ispuniti kako sam ti se zakleo Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim: tvoj će sin Salomon kraljevati poslije mene, on će sjediti na mome prijestolju!”
surely as I sware to thee by Jehovah, God of Israel, saying, Surely Solomon thy son doth reign after me, and he doth sit on my throne in my stead; surely so I do this day.'
31 Nato se nakloni Bat-Šeba licem do zemlje, pokloni se pred kraljem i reče: “Neka vječno živi gospodar moj kralj David!”
And Bath-Sheba boweth — face to the earth — and doth obeisance to the king, and saith, 'Let my lord, king David, live to the age.'
32 A kralj David reče: “Pozovite mi svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Benaju, sina Jojadina.” I dođoše oni pred kralja,
And king David saith, 'Call for me for Zadok the priest, and for Nathan the prophet, and for Benaiah son of Jehoiada;' and they come in before the king.
33 a on im reče: “Uzmite sluge svoga gospodara sa sobom, posadite moga sina Salomona na moju mazgu i odvedite ga do Gihona.
And the king saith to them, 'Take with you the servants of your lord, and ye have caused Solomon my son to ride on mine own mule, and caused him to go down unto Gihon,
34 Ondje neka ga svećenik Sadok i prorok Natan pomažu za kralja nad Izraelom. Zatrubite tada i obznanite: 'Živio kralj Salomon!'
and anointed him there hath Zadok the priest — and Nathan the prophet — for king over Israel, and ye have blown with a trumpet, and said, Let king Solomon live;
35 Zatim se uspnite amo s njim i neka uđe i sjedne na moje prijestolje i neka kraljuje mjesto mene, jer moja je volja: on neka bude glava nad Izraelom i nad Judom.”
and ye have come up after him, and he hath come in and hath sat on my throne, and he doth reign in my stead, and him I have appointed to be leader over Israel, and over Judah.'
36 Benaja, sin Jojadin, reče kralju: “Amen - tako neka bude! To je i riječ Jahve, Gospodara kraljeva!
And Benaiah son of Jehoiada answereth the king, and saith, 'Amen! so doth Jehovah, God of my lord the king, say;
37 Kao što je Jahve bio s mojim gospodarem kraljem, tako neka bude i sa Salomonom! Neka uzvisi prijestolje njegovo još više nego prijestolje kralja Davida, gospodara moga!”
as Jehovah hath been with my lord the king, so is He with Solomon, and doth make his throne greater than the throne of my lord king David.'
38 Svećenik Sadok, prorok Natan, Jojadin sin Benaja, Kerećani i Pelećani siđoše i posadiše Salomona na kraljevu mazgu i odvedoše ga na Gihon.
And Zadok the priest goeth down, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause Solomon to ride on the mule of king David, and cause him to go unto Gihon,
39 Svećenik Sadok donese iz Šatora rog s uljem i pomaza Salomona. Tada odjeknuše trube i sav narod povika: “Živio kralj Salomon!”
and Zadok the priest taketh the horn of oil out of the tent, and anointeth Solomon, and they blow with a trumpet, and all the people say, 'Let king Solomon live.'
40 I sav narod pođe za njim gore i sviraše puk u svirale i klicaše tako da se sva zemlja tresla.
And all the people come up after him, and the people are piping with pipes, and rejoicing — great joy, and the earth rendeth with their voice.
41 Čuo to Adonija i svi njegovi uzvanici. Baš su bili pri kraju gozbe. I Joab je čuo trube pa upita: “Čemu ta buka u gradu?”
And Adonijah heareth, and all those called, who [are] with him, and they have finished to eat, and Joab heareth the noise of the trumpet, and saith, 'Wherefore [is] the noise of the city roaring?'
42 Dok je on još govorio, stiže Jonatan, sin svećenika Ebjatara, i Adonija mu reče: “Ti si valjan čovjek, zacijelo nosiš dobru vijest!”
He is yet speaking, and lo, Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest hath come in, and Adonijah saith, 'Come in, for a man of valour thou [art], and thou bearest good tidings.'
43 Jonatan odgovori: “Jest, naš gospodar, kralj David, učinio je Salomona kraljem!
And Jonathan answereth and saith to Adonijah, 'Verily our lord king David hath caused Solomon to reign,
44 Kralj je poslao s njim svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Jojadina sina Benaju, i Kerećane i Pelećane. Oni ga posadiše na kraljevu mazgu,
and the king sendeth with him Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethite, and the Pelethite, and they cause him to ride on the king's mule,
45 i svećenik Sadok i prorok Natan pomazaše ga na Gihonu za kralja. Zatim su sišli radosno kličući, i sav je grad uzavreo; to je buka koju ste čuli.
and they anoint him — Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet — for king in Gihon, and are come up thence rejoicing, and the city is moved; it [is] the noise that ye have heard.
46 Još više: Salomon je već sjeo na kraljevsko prijestolje
'And also Solomon hath sat on the throne of the kingdom,
47 i došle su sluge kraljeve čestitati našem gospodaru kralju Davidu govoreći: 'Neka Bog tvoj proslavi ime Salomonovo više od imena tvoga i prijestolje njegovo uzvisi više od tvoga.' Kralj se tada poklonio na svojoj postelji
and also the servants of the king have come into bless our lord king David, saying, Thy God doth make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and his throne greater than thy throne; and the king boweth himself on the bed,
48 i ovako rekao: 'Neka je blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, koji mi dade danas da mogu vidjeti svojim očima jednoga od mojih kako sjedi na mome prijestolju.'”
and also thus hath the king said, Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who hath given to-day [one] sitting on my throne, and mine eyes seeing.'
49 Svi uzvanici Adonijini, uplašeni, ustadoše od stola i raziđoše se svaki svojim putem.
And they tremble, and rise — all those called who [are] for Adonijah — and go, each on his way;
50 Adonija pak, u strahu od Salomona, usta i ode te se uhvati za rogove žrtvenika.
and Adonijah feareth because of Solomon, and riseth, and goeth, and layeth hold on the horns of the altar.
51 Javiše Salomonu: “Gle, Adonija se uplašio kralja Salomona i eno se drži za rogove žrtvenika govoreći: 'Neka mi se danas kralj Salomon zakune da neće sluge svoga mačem pogubiti.'”
And it is declared to Solomon, saying, 'Lo, Adonijah feareth king Solomon, and lo, he hath laid hold on the horns of the altar, saying, Let king Solomon swear to me as to-day — he doth not put to death his servant by the sword.'
52 Salomon reče nato: “Ako se pokaže poštenim čovjekom, neće mu ni vlas s glave pasti na zemlju; a nađe li se u zlu, poginut će.”
And Solomon saith, 'If he becometh a virtuous man — there doth not fall of his hair to the earth, and if evil is found in him — then he hath died.'
53 Tada zapovjedi Salomon da ga odmaknu od žrtvenika; on dođe i pade ničice pred Salomonom, koji mu reče: “Pođi svome domu!”
And king Solomon sendeth, and they bring him down from off the altar, and he cometh in and boweth himself to king Solomon, and Solomon saith to him, 'Go to thy house.'
