Kings I 27
1 And David said in his heart, Now shall I be one day delivered [for death] into the hands of Saul; and there is no good thing for me unless I should escape into the land of the Philistines, and Saul should cease from seeking me through every coast of Israel: so I shall escape out of his hand.
Ali David reèe u srcu svojem: poginuæu kadgod od ruke Saulove; nema bolje za me nego da pobjegnem u zemlju Filistejsku, te æe me se Saul okaniti i neæe me više tražiti po krajevima Izrailjevijem; tako æu se izbaviti iz ruku njegovijeh.
2 So David arose, and the six hundred men that were with him, and he went to Anchus, son Ammach, king of Geth.
Tada se podiže David i otide sa šest stotina ljudi koji bijahu s njim k Ahisu sinu Maohovu caru Gatskom.
3 And David lived with Anchus, he and his men, each with his family; and David and both his wives, Achinaam, the Jezraelitess, and Abigaia the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
I osta David kod Ahisa u Gatu i ljudi njegovi, svaki sa svojom porodicom, David sa dvije žene svoje, Ahinoamom iz Jezraela i Avigejom iz Karmila ženom Navalovom.
4 And it was told Saul that David had fled to Geth; and he no longer sought after him.
I kad javiše Saulu da je David utekao u Gat, presta ga tražiti.
5 And David said to Anchus, If now your servant has found grace in your eyes, let them give me, I pray you, a place in one of the cities in the country, and I will dwell there: for why does your servant dwell with you in a royal city?
A David reèe Ahisu: ako sam našao milost pred tobom, neka mi dadu mjesto u kom gradu ove zemlje, da sjedim ondje, jer zašto da sjedi sluga tvoj s tobom u carskom gradu?
6 And he gave him Sekelac in that day: therefore Sekelac came into possession of the king of Judea to this day.
I dade mu Ahis onoga dana Siklag. Zato Siklag pripada carevima Judinijem do današnjega dana.
7 And the number of the days that David lived in the country of the Philistines was four months.
I osta David u zemlji Filistejskoj godinu i èetiri mjeseca.
8 And David and his men went up, and made an attack on all the Gesirites and on the Amalekites: and behold, the land was inhabited, (even the land from Gelampsur) by those who come from the fortified [cities] even to the land of Egypt.
I izlažaše David sa svojim ljudima, i udaraše na Gesureje i Gerzeje i na Amalike; jer ti narodi življahu od starine u onoj zemlji od Sura pa do zemlje Misirske.
9 And he struck the land, and saved neither man nor woman alive; and they took flocks, and herds, and asses, and camels, and raiment; and they returned and came to Anchus.
I pustošaše David onu zemlju ne ostavljajuæi u životu ni èovjeka ni žene, i otimaše ovce i volove i magarce i kamile i ruho, i vraæajuæi se dolažaše k Ahisu.
10 And Anchus said to David, On whom have you made an attack today? And David said to Anchus, On the south of Judea, and on the south of Jesmega, and on the south of the Kenezite.
I Ahis pitaše: gdje ste danas udarali? A David govoraše: na južnu stranu Judinu, i na južnu stranu Jerameilsku, i na južnu stranu Kenejsku.
11 And I have not saved man or woman alive to bring them to Geth, saying, Lest they carry a report to Geth against us, saying, These things David does. And this was his manner all the days that David lived in the country of the Philistines.
Ali ne ostavljaše David u životu ni èovjeka ni žene da dovede u Gat govoreæi: da nas ne tuže govoreæi: tako je uradio David. I taki mu bijaše obièaj za sve vrijeme dokle bijaše u zemlji Filistejskoj.
12 So David had the full confidence of Anchus, who said, He is thoroughly disgraced amongst his people in Israel and he shall be my servant for ever.
I Ahis vjerovaše Davidu, i govoraše: baš se omrazio s narodom svojim Izrailjem; zato æe mi biti sluga dovijeka.
