2 Samuel 5

1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.

Tada doðoše sva plemena Izrailjeva k Davidu u Hevron, i rekoše mu govoreæi: evo, mi smo kost tvoja i tijelo tvoje.

2 In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.

I prije, dok Saul bijaše car nad nama, ti si odvodio i dovodio Izrailja; i Gospod ti je rekao: ti æeš pasti narod moj Izrailja i ti æeš biti voð Izrailju.

3 So all the responsible men of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they put the holy oil on David and made him king over Israel.

Tako doðoše sve starješine Izrailjeve k caru u Hevron, i uèini s njima car David vjeru u Hevronu pred Gospodom; i pomazaše Davida za cara nad Izrailjem.

4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he was king for forty years,

Trideset godina bijaše Davidu kad se zacari, i carova èetrdeset godina.

5 Ruling over Judah in Hebron for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem, over all Israel and Judah, for thirty-three years.

U Hevronu carova nad Judom sedam godina i šest mjeseca; a u Jerusalimu carova trideset i tri godine nad svijem Izrailjem i Judom.

6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.

A car otide sa svojim ljudima u Jerusalim na Jevuseje, koji življahu u onoj zemlji. I oni rekoše Davidu govoreæi: neæeš uæi ovamo dok ne uzmeš slijepe i hrome, hoteæi kazati: neæe uæi ovamo David.

7 But David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.

Ali David uze kulu Sion, to je grad Davidov.

8 And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.

Jer reèe David u onaj dan: ko god pobije Jevuseje i doðe do jaza, i do slijepijeh i hromijeh, na koje mrzi duša Davidova, biæe vojvoda. Zato se kaže: slijepi i hromi da ne ulaze u ovu kuæu.

9 So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.

I sjede David u kuli, i nazva je gradom Davidovijem: i pogradi je David unaokolo od Milona i unutra.

10 And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.

I David jednako napredovaše, jer Gospod Bog nad vojskama bješe s njim.

11 And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.

I Hiram car Tirski posla poslanike k Davidu, i kedrovijeh drva i drvodjelja i kamenara, i sagradiše kuæu Davidu.

12 And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, and that he had made his kingdom great because of his people Israel.

I razumje David da ga je Gospod utvrdio za cara nad Izrailjem, i da je uzvisio carstvo njegovo radi naroda svojega Izrailja.

13 And David took more women and wives in Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and he had more sons and daughters.

I uze David još inoèa i žena iz Jerusalima, pošto doðe iz Hevrona; i rodi se Davidu još sinova i kæeri.

14 These are the names of those whose birth took place in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab and Nathan and Solomon

I ovo su imena onijeh koji mu se rodiše u Jerusalimu: Samuja i Sovav i Natan i Solomun,

15 And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia

I Jevar i Elisuja i Nafig i Jafija,

16 And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.

I Elisama i Elijada i Elifalet.

17 And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over Israel, they all went up in search of David; and David, hearing of it, went down to the strong place.

A Filisteji èuvši da su pomazali Davida za cara nad Izrailjem, izidoše svi Filisteji da traže Davida; a David èuvši to, otide u kulu.

18 And when the Philistines came, they went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

I Filisteji došavši raširiše se po dolini Rafajskoj.

19 And David, desiring directions from the Lord, said, Am I to go up against the Philistines? will you give them up into my hands? And the Lord said, Go up, for I will certainly give up the Philistines into your hands.

Tada David upita Gospoda govoreæi: hoæu li izaæi na Filisteje? Hoæeš li ih dati u moje ruke? A Gospod reèe Davidu: izaði; doista æu dati Filisteje u tvoje ruke.

20 And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.

Tada David doðe u Val-Ferasim, i pobi ih ondje, i reèe: prodrije Gospod neprijatelje moje preda mnom kao kad voda prodire. Otuda se prozva ono mjesto Val-Ferasim.

21 And the Philistines, when they went in flight, did not take their images with them, and David and his men took them away.

I ostaviše ondje lažne bogove svoje; a David i ljudi njegovi odnesoše ih.

22 And the Philistines came up again, and went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

I opet nanovo doðoše Filisteji, i raširiše se u dolini Rafajskoj.

23 And when David went for directions to the Lord, he said, You are not to go up against them in front; but make a circle round them from the back and come on them opposite the spice-trees.

I David upita Gospoda, koji reèe: ne idi pred njih, nego im zaði za leða, pa udari na njih prema dudovima.

24 Then at the sound of footsteps in the tops of the trees, go forward quickly, for the Lord has gone out before you to overcome the army of the Philistines.

Pa kad èuješ da zašušti po vrhovima od dudova, onda se kreni, jer æe onda poæi Gospod pred tobom da pobije vojsku Filistejsku.

25 And David did as the Lord had said; and he overcame the Philistines, attacking them from Gibeon to near Gezer.

I David uèini tako kako mu zapovjedi Gospod, i pobi Filisteje od Gavaje do Gezera.
