< 2 Samuel 5 >
1 And all the tribes of Israel went to David in Hebron, saying: “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
Тада дођоше сва племена Израиљева к Давиду у Хеврон, и рекоше му говорећи: Ево, ми смо кост твоја и тело твоје.
2 Moreover, yesterday and the day before, when Saul was king over us, you were the one leading out and leading back Israel. Then the Lord said to you, ‘You shall pasture my people Israel, and you shall be the leader over Israel.’”
И пре, док Саул беше цар над нама, ти си одводио и доводио Израиља; и Господ ти је рекао: Ти ћеш пасти народ мој Израиља и ти ћеш бити вођ Израиљу.
3 Also, the elders of Israel went to the king at Hebron, and king David struck a pact with them at Hebron in the sight of the Lord. And they anointed David as king over Israel.
Тако дођоше све старешине Израиљеве к цару у Хеврон, и учини с њима цар Давид веру у Хеврону пред Господом; и помазаше Давида за цара над Израиљем.
4 David was a son of thirty years, when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for forty years.
Тридесет година беше Давиду кад се зацари, и царова четрдесет година.
5 In Hebron, he reigned over Judah for seven years and six months. Then in Jerusalem, he reigned for thirty-three years over all of Israel and Judah.
У Хеврону царова над Јудом седам година и шест месеци; а у Јерусалиму царова тридесет и три године над свим Израиљем и Јудом.
6 And the king, and all the men who were with him, went away to Jerusalem, to the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land. And it was said to David by them, “You shall not enter here, unless you will take away the blind and the lame, who say, ‘David shall not enter here.’”
А цар отиде са својим људима у Јерусалим на Јевусеје, који живљаху у оној земљи. И они рекоше Давиду говорећи: Нећеш ући овамо док не узмеш слепе и хроме, хотећи казати: Неће ући овамо Давид.
7 But David seized the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.
Али Давид узе кулу Сион, то је град Давидов.
8 For David had proposed, on that day, a reward to him who had struck the Jebusites and who had reached to the gutters of the rooftops, and who had taken away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David. Therefore, it is said in the proverb, “The blind and the lame shall not enter into the temple.”
Јер рече Давид у онај дан: Ко год побије Јевусеје и дође до јаза, и до слепих и хромих, на које мрзи душа Давидова, биће војвода. Зато се каже: Слепи и хроми да не улазе у ову кућу.
9 Then David lived in the stronghold, and he called it: the City of David. And he built it up on all sides, from Millo and inward.
И седе Давид у кули, и назва је градом Давидовим: и погради је Давид унаоколо од Милона и унутра.
10 And he advanced, prospering and increasing, and the Lord, the God of hosts, was with him.
И Давид једнако напредоваше, јер Господ Бог над војскама беше с њим.
11 Also, Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, with cedar wood, and with builders of wood and builders of stone, in order to make walls. And they built a house for David.
И Хирам цар тирски посла посланике к Давиду, и кедрових дрва и дрводеља и каменара, и саградише кућу Давиду.
12 And David knew that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.
И разуме Давид да га је Господ утврдио за цара над Израиљем, и да је узвисио царство његово ради народа свог Израиља.
13 Then David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he had arrived from Hebron. And other sons as well as daughters were born to David.
И узе Давид још иноча и жена из Јерусалима, пошто дође из Хеврона; и роди се Давиду још синова и кћери.
14 And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
И ово су имена оних који му се родише у Јерусалиму: Самуја и Совав и Натан и Соломун,
15 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg,
И Јевар и Елисуја и Нафиг и Јафија,
16 and Japhia, and Elishama, and Eliada, and Elipheleth.
И Елисама и Елијада и Елифалет.
17 Then the Philistines heard that they had anointed David as king over Israel. And they all ascended, so that they might seek David. And when David had heard of it, he descended to a stronghold.
А Филистеји чувши да су помазали Давида за цара над Израиљем, изиђоше сви Филистеји да траже Давида; а Давид чувши то, отиде у кулу.
18 Now the Philistines, arriving, spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.
И Филистеји дошавши раширише се по долини рафајској.
19 And David consulted the Lord, saying: “Shall I ascend to the Philistines? And will you give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David: “Ascend. For I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.”
Тада Давид упита Господа говорећи: Хоћу ли изаћи на Филистеје? Хоћеш ли их дати у моје руке? А Господ рече Давиду: Изађи; доиста ћу дати Филистеје у твоје руке.
20 Therefore, David went to Baal-perazim. And he struck them there. And he said, “The Lord has divided my enemies before me, just as the waters are divided.” Because of this, the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.
Тада Давид дође у Вал-Ферасим, и поби их онде, и рече: Продре Господ непријатеље моје преда мном као кад вода продире. Отуда се прозва оно место Вал-Ферасим.
21 And in that place they left behind their graven images, which David and his men took away.
И оставише онде лажне богове своје; а Давид и људи његови однесоше их.
22 And the Philistines continued still, so that they ascended and spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.
И опет наново дођоше Филистеји, и раширише се у долини рафајској.
23 Then David consulted the Lord, “Shall I ascend against the Philistines, and will you deliver them into my hands?” And he responded: “You shall not ascend against them; instead, circle behind their back. And you shall come to them from the side opposite the balsam trees.
И Давид упита Господа, који рече: Не иди пред њих, него им зађи за леђа, па удари на њих према дудовима.
24 And when you hear the sound of something going forth from the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall begin the battle. For then the Lord will go forth, before your face, so that he may strike the army of the Philistines.”
Па кад чујеш да зашушти по врховима од дудова, онда се крени, јер ће онда поћи Господ пред тобом да побије војску филистејску.
25 And so, David did just as the Lord had instructed him. And he struck down the Philistines, from Gibeon until you arrive at Gezer.
И Давид учини тако како му заповеди Господ, и поби Филистеје од Гаваје до Гезера.
