1 Samuel 23
1 And they sent word to David, saying, The Philistines are fighting against Keilah and taking the grain from the grain-floors.
Tada javiše Davidu govoreæi: evo Filisteji udariše na Keilu, i haraju gumna.
2 So David, questioning the Lord, said, Am I to go and make an attack on these Philistines? And the Lord said to David, Go and make an attack on the Philistines so that Keilah may be kept from falling into their hands.
I upita David Gospoda govoreæi: hoæu li iæi i udariti na te Filisteje? A Gospod reèe Davidu: idi, i pobiæeš Filisteje i izbaviti Keilu.
3 And David's men said to him, Even here in Judah we are full of fear: how much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?
A Davidu rekoše ljudi njegovi: evo nas je strah ovdje u Judinoj zemlji, a šta æe biti kad poðemo u Keilu na oko Filistejski.
4 Then David put the question to the Lord again, and the Lord answering said, Up! go down to Keilah; for I will give the Philistines into your hands.
Zato David opet upita Gospoda, a Gospod mu odgovori i reèe: ustani, idi u Keilu, jer æu ja predati Filisteje u ruke tvoje.
5 So David and his men went to Keilah, and had a fight with the Philistines, and took away their cattle, and put them to the sword with great destruction. So David was the saviour of the people of Keilah.
Tada otide David sa svojim ljudima u Keilu, i udari na Filisteje, i otjera im stoku, i pobi ih ljuto; tako izbavi David stanovnike Keilske.
6 Now when Abiathar, the son of Ahimelech, went in flight to David, he came down to Keilah with the ephod in his hand.
A kad Avijatar sin Ahimelehov pobježe k Davidu u Keilu, donese sobom opleæak.
7 And news was given to Saul that David had come to Keilah. And Saul said, Now God has given him into my hands; for by going into a walled town with locked doors, he has let himself be shut in.
Potom javiše Saulu da je David došao u Keilu; i reèe Saul: dao ga je Bog u moje ruke, jer se zatvorio ušavši u grad, koji ima vrata i prijevornice.
8 And Saul sent for all the people to come to the fight, and go down to Keilah to make an attack on David and his men.
I sazva Saul sav narod na vojsku da ide na Keilu i opkoli Davida i ljude njegove.
9 And it was clear to David that Saul had evil designs against him, and he said to Abiathar the priest, Come here with the ephod.
Ali David doznavši da mu Saul zlo kuje, reèe Avijataru svešteniku: uzmi na se opleæak.
10 Then David said, O Lord, the God of Israel, news has been given to your servant that it is Saul's purpose to come to Keilah and send destruction on the town because of me.
I reèe David: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! èuo je sluga tvoj da se Saul sprema da doðe na Keilu da raskopa grad mene radi.
11 And now, is it true, as they have said to me, that Saul is coming? O Lord, the God of Israel, give ear to your servant, and say if these things are so. And the Lord said, He is coming down.
Hoæe li me Keiljani predati u njegove ruke? hoæe li doæi Saul kao što je èuo sluga tvoj? Gospode Bože Izrailjev! kaži sluzi svojemu. A Gospod odgovori: doæi æe.
12 Then David said, Will the men of Keilah give me and my men up to Saul? and the Lord said, They will give you up.
Opet reèe David: Keiljani hoæe li predati mene i moje ljude u ruke Saulove? A Gospod odgovori: predaæe.
13 Then David and his men, about six hundred of them, went out of Keilah, and got away wherever they were able to go. And Saul, hearing that David had got away from Keilah, did not go there.
Tada se David podiže sa svojim ljudima, oko šest stotina ljudi, i otidoše iz Keile, i idoše kuda mogoše. A kad Saulu javiše da je David pobjegao iz Keile, tada on ne htje iæi.
14 And David kept in the waste land, in safe places, waiting in the hill-country in the waste land of Ziph. And Saul was searching for him every day, but God did not give him up into his hands.
A David se bavljaše u pustinji po tvrdijem mjestima, i namjesti se na jednom brdu u pustinji Zifu. A Saul ga tražaše jednako, ali ga Gospod ne dade u njegove ruke.
15 And David was full of fear, in the knowledge that Saul had come out to take his life; and David was in the waste land of Ziph, in Horesh.
I David videæi da je Saul izašao te traži dušu njegovu, osta u pustinji Zifu, u šumi.
16 And Saul's son Jonathan went to David in Horesh, and made his hands strong in God;
A Jonatan sin Saulov podiže se i doðe k Davidu u šumu, i ukrijepi mu ruku u Gospodu;
17 And said to him, Have no fear, for Saul my father will not get you into his power; and you will be king of Israel, and I will be by your side, and my father Saul is certain of this.
I reèe mu: ne boj se, jer te neæe stignuti ruka cara Saula oca mojega; nego æeš carovati nad Izrailjem, a ja æu biti drugi za tobom; i Saul otac moj zna to.
18 And the two of them made an agreement before the Lord: and David went on living in Horesh, and Jonathan went back to his house.
I uèiniše njih dvojica vjeru pred Gospodom; i David osta u šumi, a Jonatan otide kuæi svojoj.
19 Then the Ziphites came up to Gibeah to see Saul, and said, Is not David living secretly among us in the strong places in Horesh, in the hill of Hachilah to the south of the waste land?
Tada doðoše Zifeji k Saulu u Gavaju, i rekoše: ne krije li se David kod nas po tvrdijem mjestima u šumi na brdu Eheli nadesno od Gesimona?
20 So now, O king, have your soul's desire and come down, and we, for our part, will give him up into the king's hands.
Sada dakle po svoj želji duše svoje, care, izidi, a naše æe biti da ga predamo u ruke caru.
21 And Saul said, The Lord's blessing will be yours, for you have had pity on me.
A Saul reèe: Gospod da vas blagoslovi, što me požaliste.
22 Go now, and take more steps, and see where he is living: for they say that he is expert in deceit.
Idite sada i doznajte još bolje i razberite i promotrite gdje se sakrio i ko ga je ondje vidio; jer mi kažu da je vrlo lukav.
23 So take care to get knowledge of all the secret places where he is taking cover, and be certain to come back to me, and I will go with you: and without doubt, if he is anywhere in the land, I will get him, among all the families of Judah.
Promotrite i vidite sva mjesta gdje se krije, pa opet doðite k meni kad dobro doznate, i ja æu poæi s vama; i ako bude u zemlji, tražiæu ga po svijem tisuæama Judinijem.
24 And they went back and came to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men were in the waste land of Maon, in the dry land south of the waste land.
Tada ustaše i otidoše u Zif prije Saula; a David i ljudi njegovi bijahu u pustinji Maonu u ravnici nadesno od Gesimona.
25 And Saul and his men went in search of him. And David had word of it, so he came down to the rock in the waste land of Maon. And Saul, hearing of this, went after David into the waste land of Maon.
I Saul izide sa svojim ljudima da ga traži; a Davidu javiše, te on siðe sa stijene i stade u pustinji Maonu. A Saul kad to èu, otide za Davidom u pustinju Maon.
26 And Saul and his men went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men went on the other: and David's purpose was to get away as quickly as possible, for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men were making a circle round David and his men in order to take them.
I Saul iðaše jednom stranom planine, a David sa svojim ljudima drugom stranom planine; i David hiæaše da uteèe Saulu, jer Saul sa svojim ljudima opkoljavaše Davida i njegove ljude da ih pohvata.
27 But a man came to Saul saying, Be quick and come; for the Philistines have made an attack on the land.
U tom doðe glasnik Saulu govoreæi: brže hodi; jer Filisteji udariše na zemlju.
28 So turning back from going after David, Saul went against the Philistines: so that place was named Sela-hammah-lekoth.
Tada se vrati Saul ne tjerajuæi dalje Davida, i otide pred Filisteje. Otuda se prozva ono mjesto Sela-Amalekot.
29 And from there, David went up and took cover in the safe place of En-gedi.
A David otišavši odande stade na tvrdijem mjestima Engadskim.
