1 Samuel 26
1 And the Ziphites went to Saul at Gibeah, saying: “Behold, David is hidden on the hill of Hachilah, which is opposite the wilderness.”
Opet doðoše Zifeji k Saulu u Gavaju govoreæi: ne krije li se David na brdu Eheli prema Gesimonu?
2 And Saul rose up, and he descended into the desert of Ziph, and with him three thousand elect men of Israel, so that he might seek David in the desert of Ziph.
A Saul se podiže i siðe u pustinju Zifsku, i s njim tri tisuæe ljudi izabranijeh iz Izrailja, da traži Davida u pustinji Zifskoj.
3 And Saul encamped at Gibeah on Hachilah, which was opposite the wilderness on the way. But David was living in the desert. Then, seeing that Saul had arrived after him in the wilderness,
I stade Saul u oko na brdu Eheli prema Gesimonu kraj puta; a David osta u pustinji, i opazi da Saul ide za njim u pustinju.
4 he sent explorers, and he learned that he certainly had arrived in that place.
I posla David uhode, i od njih dozna zacijelo da je došao Saul.
5 And David rose up secretly, and he went to the place where Saul was. And when he had seen the place where Saul was sleeping, and Abner, the son of Ner, the leader of his military, and Saul sleeping in a tent, and the remainder of the common people all around him,
Tada se podiže David i doðe na mjesto gdje Saul bijaše s vojskom. I David vidje mjesto gdje spavaše Saul i Avenir sin Nirov vojvoda njegov; a spavaše Saul meðu kolima a narod ležaše oko njega.
6 David spoke to Ahimelech, the Hittite, and to Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, the brother of Joab, saying, “Who will descend with me to Saul in the camp?” And Abishai said, “I will descend with you.”
I David progovori i reèe Ahimelehu Hetejinu i Avisaju sinu Serujinu bratu Joavovu: ko æe siæi sa mnom k Saulu u oko? A Avisaj odgovori: ja æu siæi s tobom.
7 Therefore, David and Abishai went to the people by night, and they found Saul lying down and sleeping in the tent, with his spear fixed in the ground at his head. And Abner and the people were sleeping all around him.
I tako David i Avisaj doðoše noæu k narodu; a gle, Saul ležaše i spavaše izmeðu kola, i koplje mu bješe èelo glave pobodeno u zemlju; Avenir pak i narod ležahu oko njega.
8 And Abishai said to David: “God has enclosed your enemy this day in your hands. Now therefore, I will pierce him with my lance, through to the ground, once, and there will not need to be a second.”
Tada reèe Avisaj Davidu: danas ti dade Bog neprijatelja tvojega u ruke; zato sada da ga probodem kopljem za zemlju jedanput, neæu više.
9 And David said to Abishai: “You shall not kill him. For who may extend his hand against the Christ of the Lord, and yet be innocent?”
A David reèe Avisaju: nemoj ga ubiti; jer ko æe podignuti ruku svoju na pomazanika Gospodnjega i biti prav?
10 And David said: “As the Lord lives, unless the Lord himself will strike him, or unless his day to die will have arrived, or unless, descending into battle, he will perish,
Još reèe David: tako živ bio Gospod, Gospod æe ga ubiti, ili æe doæi dan njegov da umre, ili æe izaæi u boj i poginuti.
11 may the Lord be gracious to me, so that I may not extend my hand against the Christ of the Lord. Now therefore, take the spear that is at his head, and the cup of water, and let us go.”
Ne dao mi Bog da dignem ruku svoju na pomazanika Gospodnjega! Nego uzmi sada koplje što mu je èelo glave i èašu za vodu, pa da idemo.
12 And so, David took the spear, and the cup of water that was at Saul’s head, and they went away. And there was no one who saw it, or realized it, or awakened, but they were all sleeping. For a deep sleep from the Lord had fallen over them.
I David uze koplje i èašu za vodu, što bješe èelo glave Saulu, i otidoše; i niko ih ne vidje ni osjeti, niti se koji probudi, nego svi spavahu; jer bješe napao na njih tvrd san od Gospoda.
13 And when David had crossed over to the opposite side, and had stood upon the top of the hill far away, so that there was a great interval between them,
I David prešav na drugu stranu stade navrh brda izdaleka; i bješe izmeðu njih mnogo mjesta.
14 David cried out to the people, and to Abner, the son of Ner, saying, “Will you not respond, Abner?” And responding, Abner said, “Who are you, that you would cry out and disquiet the king?”
I stade David vikati narod i Avenira sina Nirova govoreæi: što se ne odzivaš, Avenire? A Avenir se odazva i reèe: koji si ti što vièeš cara?
15 And David said to Abner: “Are you not a man? And who else is like you in Israel? Then why have you not guarded your lord the king? For one of the people entered, so that he might kill the king, your lord.
A David reèe Aveniru: nijesi li ti junak? i ko je kao ti u Izrailju? Zašto nijesi èuvao cara gospodara svojega? Jer je išao jedan iz naroda da ubije gospodara tvojega.
16 This is not good, what you have done. As the Lord lives, you are sons of death, because you have not guarded your lord, the Christ of the Lord. Now therefore, where is the king’s spear, and where is the cup of water that was at his head?”
Nijesi dobro radio. Tako da je živ Gospod, zaslužili ste smrt što nijeste èuvali gospodara svojega, pomazanika Gospodnjega. Eto, gledaj, gdje je koplje carevo i èaša za vodu što mu bješe èelo glave?
17 Then Saul recognized the voice of David, and he said, “Is this not your voice, my son David?” And David said, “It is my voice, my lord the king.”
Tada Saul pozna glas Davidov, i reèe: je li to tvoj glas, sine Davide? A David reèe: moj je glas, care gospodaru!
18 And he said: “For what reason has my lord pursued his servant? What have I done? Or what evil is there in my hand?
Još reèe: zašto gospodar moj goni slugu svojega? jer šta sam uèinio? i kako je zlo u ruci mojoj?
19 Now therefore, listen, I beg you, my lord the king, to the words of your servant. If the Lord has stirred you up against me, let him make the sacrifice fragrant. But if the sons of men have done so, they are accursed in the sight of the Lord, who has cast me out this day, so that I would not live within the inheritance of the Lord, saying, ‘Go, serve strange gods.’
Zato sada care gospodaru moj, poslušaj rijeèi sluge svojega. Ako te Gospod draži na mene, neka mu je ugodan prinos tvoj; ako li sinovi èovjeèiji, prokleti su pred Gospodom, jer me izagnaše danas da se ne držim našljedstva Gospodnjega, i rekoše: idi, služi tuðim bogovima.
20 And now, let not my blood be poured out upon the earth before the Lord. For the king of Israel has gone out, so that he might seek a flea, just as the partridge is pursued amid the mountains.”
Ali sada da ne padne krv moja na zemlju daleko od oèiju Gospodnjih; jer car Izrailjev izide da traži buhu jednu, kao kad ko goni jarebicu po planini.
21 And Saul said: “I have sinned. Return, my son David. For I will never again do evil to you, because my life has been precious in your eyes this day. For it is apparent that I have acted senselessly, and have been ignorant of very many things.”
Tada reèe Saul: zgriješio sam; vrati se, sine Davide, neæu ti otsele èiniti zla, kad ti danas draga bi duša moja; evo, ludo sam radio i pogriješio sam veoma.
22 And responding, David said: “Behold, the king’s spear. Let one of the servants of the king cross over and take it.
A David odgovori i reèe: evo koplja careva; neka doðe koji od momaka i neka ga uzme.
23 And the Lord will repay each one according to his justice and faith. For the Lord has delivered you this day into my hand, but I was not willing to extend my hand against the Christ of the Lord.
A Gospod æe platiti svakome po pravdi njegovoj i po vjeri njegovoj. Jer te bješe predao Gospod danas u ruke moje, ali ne htjeh dignuti ruke svoje na pomazanika Gospodnjega.
24 And just as your soul has been magnified this day in my eyes, so let my soul be magnified in the eyes of the Lord, and may he free me from all distress.”
I zato, evo, kako je danas meni draga bila duša tvoja, tako neka bude draga moja duša pred Gospodom, i neka me izbavi iz svake nevolje.
25 Then Saul said to David: “You are blessed, my son David. And whatever you may do, it shall certainly succeed.” And David departed on his way. And Saul returned to his place.
A Saul reèe Davidu: da si blagosloven, sine moj Davide! izvršiæeš i nadvladaæeš. Tada David otide svojim putem, a Saul se vrati u svoje mjesto.
