1 Samuel 20
1 Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah. He came to Jonathan and asked, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? How have I sinned against your father, that he wants to take my life?”
A David pobježe iz Najota u Rami, i doðe i reèe Jonatanu: šta sam uèinio? kakva je krivica moja? i šta sam zgriješio ocu tvojemu, te traži dušu moju?
2 “Far from it!” Jonathan replied. “You will not die. Indeed, my father does nothing, great or small, without telling me. So why would he hide this matter from me? This cannot be true!”
A on mu reèe: saèuvaj Bože! neæeš ti poginuti. Evo otac moj ne èini ništa, ni veliko ni malo, a da meni ne kaže; a kako bi to tajio od mene otac moj? Neæe to biti.
3 But David again vowed, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, ‘Jonathan must not know of this, or he will be grieved.’ As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, there is but a step between me and death.”
A David zaklinjuæi se opet reèe: otac tvoj zna dobro da sam našao ljubav u tebe, pa veli: ne treba da dozna za ovo Jonatan, da se ne ožalosti. Ali tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, samo je jedan korak izmeðu mene i smrti.
4 Then Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you desire, I will do for you.”
A Jonatan reèe Davidu: šta želi duša tvoja? Ja æu ti uèiniti.
5 So David told him, “Look, tomorrow is the New Moon, and I am supposed to dine with the king. Instead, let me go and hide in the field until the third evening from now.
I David reèe Jonatanu: evo sjutra je mladina, kad treba s carem da jedem, pusti me dakle da se sakrijem u polju do treæega veèera.
6 If your father misses me at all, tell him, ‘David urgently requested my permission to hurry to Bethlehem, his hometown, because there is an annual sacrifice for his whole clan.’
Ako zapita za me otac tvoj, ti reci: vrlo mi se molio David da otrèi u Vitlejem grad svoj, jer je ondje godišnja žrtva svega roda njegova.
7 If he says, ‘Good,’ then your servant is safe, but if he is enraged, you will know he has evil intentions.
Ako reèe: dobro, biæe miran sluga tvoj; ako li se razgnjevi, znaj da je zlo naumio.
8 Therefore deal faithfully with your servant, for you have brought me into a covenant with you before the LORD. If there is iniquity in me, then kill me yourself; why should you bring me to your father?”
Uèini dakle milost sluzi svojemu, kad si vjeru Gospodnju uhvatio sa slugom svojim; ako je kaka krivica na meni, ubij me sam, jer zašto bi me vodio k ocu svojemu?
9 “Never!” Jonathan replied. “If I ever found out that my father had evil intentions against you, would I not tell you?”
A Jonatan mu reèe: Bože saèuvaj; jer da doznam da je otac moj naumio zlo da te zadesi, zar ti ne bih javio?
10 Then David asked Jonathan, “Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?”
A David reèe Jonatanu: ko æe mi javiti ako ti otac odgovori što zlo?
11 “Come,” he replied, “let us go out to the field.” So the two of them went out into the field,
A Jonatan reèe Davidu: hodi da izidemo u polje. I izidoše obojica u polje.
12 and Jonathan said, “By the LORD, the God of Israel, I will sound out my father by this time tomorrow or the next day. If he is favorable toward you, will I not send for you and tell you?
I Jonatan reèe Davidu: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! kad iskušam oca svojega sjutra u ovo doba ili prekosjutra, i bude dobro po Davida, ako ne pošljem k tebi i ne javim ti,
13 But if my father intends to bring evil on you, then may the LORD punish me, and ever so severely, if I do not tell you and send you on your way in safety. May the LORD be with you, just as He has been with my father.
Neka Gospod uèini tako Jonatanu i tako neka doda. Ako li otac moj bude naumio da ti uèini zlo, ja æu ti javiti, i opraviæu te, i otiæi æeš s mirom; i Gospod neka bude s tobom kao što je bio s ocem mojim.
14 And as long as I live, treat me with the LORD’s loving devotion, that I may not die,
A i ti, dokle sam živ, èiniæeš meni milost Gospodnju da ne poginem;
15 and do not ever cut off your loving devotion from my household—not even when the LORD cuts off every one of David’s enemies from the face of the earth.”
I neæeš ukratiti milosti svoje domu mojemu dovijeka, ni onda kad Gospod istrijebi sve neprijatelje Davidove sa zemlje.
16 So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, “May the LORD hold David’s enemies accountable.”
Tako Jonatan uèini vjeru s domom Davidovijem govoreæi: Gospod neka traži iz ruku neprijatelja Davidovijeh.
17 And Jonathan had David reaffirm his vow out of love for him, for Jonathan loved David as he loved himself.
I još zakle Jonatan Davida ljubavlju svojom k njemu, jer ga ljubljaše kao svoju dušu.
18 Then Jonathan said to David, “Tomorrow is the New Moon, and you will be missed if your seat is empty.
Potom reèe mu Jonatan: sjutra je mladina, i pitaæe se za te, jer æe tvoje mjesto biti prazno.
19 When you have stayed three days, hurry down to the place you hid on the day this trouble began, and remain beside the stone Ezel.
A ti èekaj do treæega dana, pa onda otidi brzo i doði na mjesto gdje si se bio sakrio kad se ovo radilo, i sjedi kod kamena Ezila.
20 I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as if I were aiming at a target.
A ja æu baciti tri strijele ukraj toga kamena, kao da gaðam biljegu.
21 Then I will send a boy and say, ‘Go, find the arrows!’ Now, if I expressly say to him, ‘Look, the arrows are on this side of you; bring them,’ then come, because as surely as the LORD lives, it is safe for you and there is no danger.
I evo poslaæu momka govoreæi mu: idi, naði strijele. Ako reèem momku: eto strijele su za tobom ovamo bliže, digni ih; tada doði, dobro je po te, i neæe ti biti ništa, tako živ bio Gospod!
22 But if I say to the young man, ‘Look, the arrows are beyond you,’ then you must go, for the LORD has sent you away.
Ako li ovako reèem momku: eto strijele su pred tobom tamo dalje; onda idi, jer te Gospod šalje.
23 And as for the matter you and I have discussed, the LORD is a witness between you and me forever.”
A za ove rijeèi što rekosmo ja i ti, evo, Gospod je svjedok izmeðu mene i tebe dovijeka.
24 So David hid in the field, and when the New Moon had come, the king sat down to eat.
Potom se David sakri u polju; i doðe mladina, i car sjede za sto da jede.
25 He sat in his usual place by the wall, opposite Jonathan and beside Abner, but David’s place was empty.
A kad car sjede na svoje mjesto, po obièaju na mjesto kod zida, Jonatan usta, a Avenir sjede do Saula, a mjesto Davidovo bješe prazno.
26 Saul said nothing that day because he thought, “Something has happened to David to make him ceremonially unclean—surely he is unclean.”
I Saul ne reèe ništa onaj dan, jer mišljaše: dogodilo mu se štogod, te nije èist, zacijelo nije èist.
27 But on the day after the New Moon, the second day, David’s place was still empty, and Saul asked his son Jonathan, “Why hasn’t the son of Jesse come to the meal either yesterday or today?”
A sjutradan, drugi dan mjeseca, opet bješe prazno mjesto Davidovo, a Saul reèe Jonatanu sinu svojemu: zašto sin Jesejev ne doðe na objed ni juèe ni danas?
28 Jonathan answered, “David urgently requested my permission to go to Bethlehem,
A Jonatan odgovori Saulu: vrlo me je molio David da otide do Vitlejema,
29 saying, ‘Please let me go, because our clan is holding a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has told me to be there. So now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go and see my brothers.’ That is why he did not come to the king’s table.”
Rekavši: pusti me, jer porodica naša ima žrtvu u gradu, i sam mi je brat zapovjedio; ako sam dakle našao milost pred tobom, da otidem i vidim braæu svoju. Zato nije došao na carev objed.
30 Then Saul’s anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse and rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the disgrace of the mother who bore you?
Tada se razgnjevi Saul na Jonatana, te mu reèe: nevaljali i neposlušni sine! zar ja ne znam da si izabrao sina Jesejeva sebi na sramotu i na sramotu svojoj nevaljaloj majci?
31 For as long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingship shall be established. Now send for him and bring him to me, for he must surely die!”
Jer dokle je živ sin Jesejev na zemlji, neæeš se utvrditi ni ti ni carstvo tvoje; zato pošlji sada i dovedi ga k meni, jer je zaslužio smrt.
32 “Why must he be put to death?” Jonathan replied. “What has he done?”
A Jonatan odgovori Saulu ocu svojemu i reèe mu: zašto da se pogubi? šta je uèinio?
33 Then Saul hurled his spear at Jonathan to kill him; so Jonathan knew that his father was determined to kill David.
Tada se Saul baci kopljem na nj da ga ubije. Tada vidje Jonatan da je otac njegov naumio ubiti Davida.
34 Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger and did not eat any food that second day of the month, for he was grieved by his father’s shameful treatment of David.
I usta Jonatan od stola gnjevan, i ništa ne jede drugi dan po mladini; jer se zabrinu za Davida, što ga otac osramoti.
35 In the morning Jonathan went out to the field for the appointment with David, and a small boy was with him.
A kad bi ujutru, izide Jonatan u polje u vrijeme kako bješe ugovorio s Davidom, i s njim jedno momèe.
36 He said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows I shoot.” And as the boy ran, Jonathan shot an arrow beyond him.
I reèe momku svojemu: trèi da mi naðeš strijele koje æu pustiti. I momèe otrèa, a on pusti strijelu preko njega.
37 When the boy reached the place where Jonathan’s arrow had fallen, Jonathan called to him, “Isn’t the arrow beyond you?”
A kad doðe momak do mjesta kuda bješe zastrijelio Jonatan, viknu Jonatan za momkom govoreæi: nije li strijela dalje naprijed?
38 Then Jonathan cried out, “Hurry! Make haste! Do not delay!” So the boy picked up the arrow and returned to his master.
Još viknu Jonatan za momkom: brže, ne stoj. I momak Jonatanov pokupi strijele, i vrati se gospodaru svojemu.
39 But the boy did not know anything; only Jonathan and David knew the arrangement.
Ali momak ne znaše ništa, samo Jonatan i David znahu šta je.
40 Then Jonathan gave his equipment to the boy and said, “Go, take it back to the city.”
I Jonatan dade oružje svoje momku koji bijaše s njim, i reèe mu: idi, odnesi u grad.
41 When the young man had gone, David got up from the south side of the stone, fell facedown, and bowed three times. Then he and Jonathan kissed each other and wept together—though David wept more.
I kad momak otide, David usta s južne strane i pade nièice na zemlju i pokloni se tri puta, i poljubiše se, i plakaše obojica, a David osobito.
42 And Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for the two of us have sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘May the LORD be a witness between you and me, and between your descendants and mine forever.’” Then David got up and departed, and Jonathan went back into the city.
I reèe Jonatan Davidu: idi s mirom, kao što smo se zakleli obojica imenom Gospodnjim rekavši: Gospod da je svjedok izmeðu mene i tebe i izmeðu mojega sjemena i tvojega sjemena dovijeka. I tako David ustavši otide, a Jonatan se vrati u grad.
