2 Samuel 11
1 In the spring, at the time when kings march out to war, David sent out Joab and his servants with the whole army of Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem.
A kad proðe godina, u vrijeme kad carevi idu na vojsku, posla David Joava i sluge svoje s njim, i svega Izrailja, te potirahu sinove Amonove, i opkoliše Ravu; a David osta u Jerusalimu.
2 One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman.
I pred veèe usta David s postelje svoje, i hodajuæi po krovu carskoga dvora ugleda s krova ženu gdje se mije, a žena bijaše vrlo lijepa na oèi.
3 So David sent and inquired about the woman, and he was told, “This is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.”
I David posla da propitaju za ženu i rekoše: nije li to Vitsaveja kæi Elijamova žena Urije Hetejina?
4 Then David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. (Now she had just purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned home.
I David posla poslanike da je dovedu; i kad doðe k njemu, on leže s njom, a ona se bješe oèistila od neèistote svoje; poslije se vrati svojoj kuæi.
5 And the woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, “I am pregnant.”
I zatrudnje žena, te posla i javi Davidu govoreæi: trudna sam.
6 At this, David sent orders to Joab: “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” So Joab sent him to David.
Tada David posla k Joavu i poruèi: pošlji mi Uriju Hetejina. I posla Joav Uriju k Davidu.
7 When Uriah came to him, David asked how Joab and the troops were doing with the war.
I kad Urija doðe k njemu, zapita ga David kako je Joav i kako je narod i kako ide rat.
8 Then he said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king followed him.
Potom reèe David Uriji: idi kuæi svojoj, i operi noge svoje. I Urija izide iz careva dvora, a za njim iznesoše jelo carsko.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the palace with all his master’s servants; he did not go down to his house.
Ali Urija leže na vratima dvora careva sa svijem slugama gospodara svojega, i ne otide kuæi svojoj.
10 And David was told, “Uriah did not go home.” “Haven’t you just arrived from a journey?” David asked Uriah. “Why didn’t you go home?”
I javiše Davidu govoreæi: Urija nije otišao kuæi svojoj. A David reèe Uriji: nijesi li došao s puta? zašto ne ideš kuæi svojoj?
11 Uriah answered, “The ark and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my master Joab and his soldiers are camped in the open field. How can I go to my house to eat and drink and sleep with my wife? As surely as you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do such a thing!”
A Urija reèe Davidu: kovèeg i Izrailj i Juda stoje po šatorima, i Joav gospodar moj i sluge gospodara mojega stoje u polju, pa kako bih ja ušao u kuæu svoju da jedem i pijem i spavam sa ženom svojom? Tako ti bio živ i tako bila živa duša tvoja, neæu to uèiniti.
12 “Stay here one more day,” David said to Uriah, “and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day and the next.
Tada reèe David Uriji: ostani ovdje još danas, pa æu te sjutra otpustiti. Tako osta Urija u Jerusalimu onaj dan i sjutradan.
13 Then David invited Uriah to eat and drink with him, and he got Uriah drunk. And in the evening Uriah went out to lie down on his cot with his master’s servants, but he did not go home.
I pozva ga David da jede i pije s njim, te ga opije. A uveèe otide, te leže na postelju svoju sa slugama gospodara svojega, a kuæi svojoj ne otide.
14 The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah.
A ujutru napisa David knjigu Joavu, i posla po Uriji.
15 In the letter he wrote: “Put Uriah at the front of the fiercest battle; then withdraw from him, so that he may be struck down and killed.”
A u knjizi pisa i reèe: namjestite Uriju gdje je najžešæi boj, pa se uzmaknite od njega da bi ga ubili da pogine.
16 So as Joab besieged the city, he assigned Uriah to a place where he saw the strongest enemy soldiers.
I Joav opkolivši grad namjesti Uriju na mjesto gdje je znao da su najhrabriji ljudi.
17 And when the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of David’s servants fell, and Uriah the Hittite also died.
I izidoše ljudi iz grada i pobiše se s Judom. I pogibe iz naroda nekoliko sluga Davidovijeh; pogibe i Urija Hetejin.
18 Joab sent to David a full account of the battle
Tada Joav posla k Davidu, i javi mu sve što bi u boju.
19 and instructed the messenger, “When you have finished giving the king all the details of the battle,
I zapovjedi glasniku govoreæi: kad pripovjediš caru sve što je bilo u boju,
20 if the king’s anger flares, he may ask you, ‘Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Did you not realize they would shoot from atop the wall?
Ako se razgnjevi car i reèe ti: zašto ste išli tako blizu grada da se bijete? zar nijeste znali kako se strijelja s grada?
21 Who was the one to strike Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth? Was it not a woman who dropped an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If so, then you are to say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.’”
Ko je ubio Avimeleha sina Jeruvesetova? nije li žena bacila na nj komad žrvnja sa zida, te pogibe u Tevesu? zašto ste išli blizu zida? tada reci: poginuo je i sluga tvoj Urija Hetejin.
22 So the messenger set out and reported to David all that Joab had sent him to say.
I otide glasnik, i došavši javi Davidu sve za što ga je poslao Joav.
23 The messenger said to David, “The men overpowered us and came out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate.
I reèe glasnik Davidu: bijahu jaèi od nas, i izidoše u polje na nas, ali ih uzbismo do vrata gradskih.
24 Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall, and some of the king’s servants were killed. And your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.”
A strijelci stadoše strijeljati na sluge tvoje sa zida, i pogibe nekoliko sluga carevijeh, tako i sluga tvoj Urija Hetejin pogibe.
25 Then David told the messenger, “Say this to Joab: ‘Do not let this matter upset you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Strengthen your attack against the city and demolish it.’ Encourage him with these words.”
Tada reèe David glasniku: ovako reci Joavu: ne budi zlovoljan za to; jer maè proždire sad ovoga sad onoga; udri još jaèe na grad i raskopaj ga. Tako ga ohrabri.
26 When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him.
A žena Urijina èuvši da je poginuo muž njezin Urija, plaka za mužem svojim.
27 And when the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the LORD.
A kad proðe žalost, posla David i uze je u kuæu svoju, i ona mu posta žena, i rodi mu sina. Ali ne bješe po volji Gospodu što uèini David.
