Kings II 12
1 And the Lord sent Nathan the prophet to David; and he went in to him, and said to him, There were two men in one city, one rich and the other poor.
I posla Gospod Natana k Davidu; i on došav k njemu reèe mu: u jednom gradu bijahu dva èovjeka, jedan bogat a drugi siromah.
2 And the rich [man] had very many flocks and herds.
Bogati imaše ovaca i goveda vrlo mnogo;
3 But the poor [man had] only one little ewe lamb, which he had purchased, and preserved, and reared; an it grew up with himself and his children in common; it ate of his bread and drank of his cup, and slept in his bosom, and was to him as a daughter.
A siromah nemaše ništa do jednu malu ovèicu, koju bješe kupio, i hranjaše je, te odraste uza nj i uz djecu njegovu, i jeðaše od njegova zalogaja, i iz njegove èaše pijaše, i na krilu mu spavaše, i bijaše mu kao kæi.
4 And a traveller came to the rich man, and he spared to take of his flocks and of his herds, to dress for the traveller that came to him; and he took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that came to him.
A doðe putnik k bogatome èovjeku, a njemu bi žao uzeti iz svojih ovaca ili goveda da zgotovi putniku koji doðe k njemu; nego uze ovcu onoga siromaha, i zgotovi je èovjeku, koji doðe k njemu.
5 And David was greatly moved with anger against the man; and David said to Nathan, [As] the Lord lives, the man that did this thing shall surely die.
Tada se David vrlo razgnjevi na onoga èovjeka, i reèe Natanu: tako živ bio Gospod, zaslužio je smrt onaj koji je to uèinio.
6 And he shall restore the lamb seven-fold, because he has not spared.
I ovcu neka plati uèetvoro, što je to uèinio i nije mu žao bilo.
7 And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man that has done this. Thus says the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee to be king over Israel, and I rescued thee out the hand of Saul;
Tada reèe Natan Davidu: ti si taj. Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja sam te pomazao za cara nad Izrailjem, i ja sam te izbavio iz ruku Saulovijeh.
8 and I gave thee the house of thy lord, and the wives of thy lord into thy bosom, and I gave to thee the house of Israel and Juda; and if that had been little, I would have given thee yet more.
I dao sam ti dom gospodara tvojega, i žene gospodara tvojega na krilo tvoje, dao sam ti dom Izrailjev i Judin; i ako je malo, dodao bih ti to i to.
9 Why hast thou set at nought the word of the Lord, to do that which is evil in his eyes? thou hast slain Urias the Chettite with the sword, and thou hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and thou hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Zašto si prezreo rijeè Gospodnju èineæi što njemu nije po volji? Uriju Hetejina ubio si maèem i uzeo si ženu njegovu sebi za ženu, a njega si ubio maèem sinova Amonovijeh.
10 Now therefore the sword shall not depart from thy house for ever, because thou has set me at nought, and thou hast taken the wife of Urias the Chettite, to be thy wife.
Zato neæe se odmaæi maè od doma tvojega dovijeka, što si me prezreo i uzeo ženu Urije Hetejina da ti bude žena.
11 Thus says the Lord, Behold, I will raise up against thee evil out of thy house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and will give them to thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na te zlo iz doma tvojega, i uzeæu žene tvoje na tvoje oèi, i daæu ih bližnjemu tvojemu, te æe spavati sa ženama tvojim na vidiku svakomu.
12 For thou didst it secretly, but I will do this thing in the sight of all Israel, and before the sun.
Jer ti si uèinio tajno, ali æu ja ovo uèiniti pred svijem Izrailjem i svakomu na vidiku.
13 And David said to Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said to David, And the Lord has put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.
Tada reèe David Natanu: sagriješih Gospodu. A Natan reèe Davidu: i Gospod je pronio grijeh tvoj; neæeš umrijeti.
14 Only because thou hast given great occasion of provocation to the enemies of the Lord by this thing, thy son also that is born to thee shall surely die.
Ali što si tijem djelom dao priliku neprijateljima Gospodnjim da hule, zato æe ti umrijeti sin koji ti se rodio.
15 And Nathan departed to his house. And the Lord smote the child, which the wife of Urias the Chettite bore to David, and it was ill.
Potom Natan otide svojoj kuæi. A Gospod udari dijete koje rodi žena Urijina Davidu, te se razbolje na smrt.
16 And David enquired of God concerning the child, and David fasted, and went in and lay all night upon the ground.
I David se moljaše Bogu za dijete, i pošæaše se David, i došavši ležaše preko noæ na zemlji.
17 And the elders of his house arose [and went] to him to raise him up from the ground, but he would not [rise], nor did he eat bread with them.
I starješine doma njegova ustaše oko njega da ga podignu sa zemlje, ali on ne htje, niti jede što s njima.
18 And it came to pass on the seventh day that the child died: and the servants of David were afraid to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive we spoke to him, and he hearkened not to our voice; and thou should we tell him that the child is dead?—so would he do [himself] harm.
A kad bi sedmi dan, umrije dijete; i ne smijahu sluge Davidove javiti mu da je dijete umrlo, jer govorahu: evo, dok dijete bijaše živo, govorasmo mu, pa nas ne htje poslušati; a kako æemo mu kazati: umrlo je dijete? hoæe ga ucvijeliti.
19 And David understood that his servants were whispering, and David perceived that the child was dead: and David said to his servants, Is the child dead? and they said, He is dead.
A David videæi gdje sluge njegove šapæu meðu sobom, dosjeti se da je umrlo dijete; i reèe David slugama svojim: je li umrlo dijete? A oni rekoše: umrlo je.
20 Then David rose up from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his raiment, and went into the house of God, and worshipped him; and went into his own house, and called for bread to eat, and they set bread before him and he ate.
Tada David usta sa zemlje, i umi se, i namaza se i preobuèe se; i otide u dom Gospodnji, i pokloni se. Potom opet doðe kuæi svojoj, i zaiska da mu donesu da jede; i jede.
21 And his servants said to him, What [is] this thing that thou hast done concerning the child? while it was yet living thou didst fast, and weep, and watch: and when the child was dead thou didst rise up, and didst eat bread, and drink.
A sluge njegove rekoše mu: šta to radiš? dok bijaše dijete živo, postio si i plakao; a kad umrije dijete, ustao si i jedeš.
22 And David said, While the child yet lived, I fasted and wept; for I said, Who knows if the Lord will pity me, and the child live?
A on reèe: dok dijete bijaše živo, postio sam i plakao, jer govorah: ko zna, može se smilovati Gospod na me da dijete ostane živo.
23 But now it is dead, why should I fast thus? shall I be able to bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
A sada umrlo je; što bih postio? mogu li ga povratiti? ja æu otiæi k njemu, ali on neæe se vratiti k meni.
24 And David comforted Bersabee his wife, and he went in to her, and lay with her; and she conceived and bore a son, and he called his named Solomon, and the Lord loved him.
Potom David utješi Vitsaveju ženu svoju, i otide k njoj, i leže s njom. I ona rodi sina, kojemu nadje ime Solomun. I mio bješe Gospodu.
25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name Jeddedi, for the Lord's sake.
I posla Natana proroka, te mu nadje ime Jedidija, radi Gospoda.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
A Joav bijuæi Ravu sinova Amonovih, uze carski grad.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbath, and taken the city of waters.
I posla poslanike k Davidu, i reèe: bih Ravu, i uzeh grad na vodi.
28 And now gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, an take it beforehand; lest I take the city first, and my name be called upon it.
Nego sada skupi ostali narod, i stani u oko prema gradu, i uzmi ga, da ga ne bih ja uzeo i moje se ime spominjalo na njemu.
29 And David gathered all the people, and went to Rabbath, and fought against it, and took it.
I David skupiv sav narod otide na Ravu, i udari na nju, i uze je.
30 And he took the crown of Molchom their king from off his head, and the weight of it was a talent of gold, with precious stones, and it was upon the head of David; and he carried forth very much spoil of the city.
I uze caru njihovu s glave krunu, u kojoj bješe talanat zlata, s dragim kamenjem, i metnuše je na glavu Davidu, i odnese iz grada plijen vrlo velik.
31 And he brought forth the people that were in it, and put them under the saw, and under iron harrows, and axes of iron, and made them pass through the brick-kiln: and thus he did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
A narod koji bijaše u njemu izvede i metnu ih pod pile i pod brane gvozdene i pod sjekire gvozdene, i sagna ih u peæi gdje se opeke peku. I tako uèini svijem gradovima sinova Amonovijeh. Potom se vrati David sa svijem narodom u Jerusalim.
