2 Samuel 3
1 And the war was long between the house of Saul and the house of David; but David became continually stronger, and the house of Saul became continually weaker.
I dugo bijaše rat izmeðu doma Saulova i doma Davidova; ali David sve veæma jaèaše a dom Saulov postajaše sve slabiji.
2 And to David were sons born in Hebron: his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jizreelitess;
I Davidu se rodiše sinovi u Hevronu: prvenac mu bješe Amnon od Ahinoame Jezraeljanke;
3 and his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maachah, daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;
Drugi bješe Hileav od Avigeje žene Navala Karmilca; treæi Avesalom sin Mahe kæeri Talmaja cara Gesurskoga;
4 and the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;
Èetvrti Adonija sin Agitin; i peti Sefatija sin Avitalin;
5 and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah David's wife. These were born to David in Hebron.
I šesti Itram od Egle žene Davidove. Ti se rodiše Davidu u Hevronu.
6 And it came to pass while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul.
I dok bijaše rat izmeðu doma Saulova i doma Davidova, Avenir branjaše dom Saulov.
7 And Saul had a concubine whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And [Ishbosheth] said to Abner, Why hast thou gone in to my father's concubine?
A Saul imaše inoèu po imenu Resfu kæer Ajinu; i Isvostej reèe Aveniru: zašto si spavao kod inoèe oca mojega?
8 Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, Am I a dog's head, I who against Judah do shew kindness this day to the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou reproachest me this day with the fault of this woman?
I Avenir se razgnjevi na rijeèi Isvostejeve i reèe: jesam li ja pasja glava, koji sada èinim na Judi milost domu Saula oca tvojega i braæi njegovoj i prijateljima njegovijem, i nijesam te pustio u ruke Davidove, te danas tražiš na meni zlo radi te žene?
9 So do God to Abner, and more also, if, as Jehovah has sworn to David, I do not so to him;
Tako neka uèini Bog Aveniru, i tako neka doda, ako ne uèinim Davidu kako mu se Gospod zakleo,
10 to translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer-sheba!
Da se prenese ovo carstvo od doma Saulova, i da se utvrdi prijesto Davidov nad Izrailjem i nad Judom, od Dana do Virsaveje.
11 And he could not answer Abner a word again, because he feared him.
I on ne može više ništa odgovoriti Aveniru, jer ga se bojaše.
12 And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, Whose is the land? saying [also], Make thy covenant with me, and behold, my hand shall be with thee, to turn all Israel to thee.
I Avenir posla poslanike k Davidu od sebe i poruèi: èija je zemlja? I poruèi mu: uèini vjeru sa mnom, i evo ruka æe moja biti s tobom, da obratim k tebi svega Izrailja.
13 And he said, Well, I will make a covenant with thee; only I require one thing of thee, that is, Thou shalt not see my face, except thou first bring Michal Saul's daughter, when thou comest to see my face.
A on odgovori: dobro; ja æu uèiniti vjeru s tobom; ali jedno ištem od tebe, i to: da ne vidiš lica mojega ako mi prvo ne dovedeš Mihalu kæer Saulovu, kad doðeš da vidiš lice moje.
14 And David sent messengers to Ishbosheth Saul's son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.
I posla David poslanike k Isvosteju sinu Saulovu, i poruèi mu: daj mi ženu moju Mihalu, koju isprosih za sto okrajaka Filistejskih.
15 And Ishbosheth sent, and took her from [her] husband, from Phaltiel the son of Laish.
I Isvostej posla te je uze od muža, od Faltila, sina Laisova.
16 And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner to him, Go, return. And he returned.
A muž njezin poðe s njom, i jednako plakaše za njom do Vaurima. Tada mu reèe Avenir: idi, vrati se natrag. I on se vrati.
17 Now Abner had communicated with the elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for David aforetime to be king over you;
Potom Avenir govori starješinama Izrailjskim, i reèe im: preðe tražiste Davida da bude car nad vama.
18 and now do [it], for Jehovah has spoken of David, saying, By my servant David will I save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.
Eto sada uèinite; jer je Gospod rekao za Davida govoreæi: preko Davida sluge svojega izbaviæu narod svoj Izrailja iz ruku Filistejskih i iz ruku svijeh neprijatelja njihovijeh.
19 And Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin.
Tako govori Avenir i sinovima Venijaminovijem. Potom otide Avenir i u Hevron da kaže Davidu sve što za dobro naðe Izrailj i sav dom Venijaminov.
20 So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a repast.
I kad doðe Avenir k Davidu u Hevron i s njim dvadeset ljudi, uèini David gozbu Aveniru i ljudima koji bijahu s njim.
21 And Abner said to David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thy heart desires. And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace.
I reèe Avenir Davidu: da ustanem i idem da skupim k caru gospodaru svojemu sav narod Izrailjev da uèine vjeru s tobom, pa da caruješ kako ti duša želi. I David otpusti Avenira da ide s mirom.
22 And behold, the servants of David and Joab came from an expedition, and brought in a great spoil with them; but Abner was no longer with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace.
A gle, sluge Davidove vraæahu se s Joavom iz boja, i tjerahu sa sobom velik plijen; a Avenir veæ ne bješe kod Davida u Hevronu, jer ga otpusti, te otide s mirom.
23 And Joab and all the host that was with him came; and they told Joab, saying, Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away; and he is gone in peace.
Joav dakle i sva vojska što bješe s njim doðoše onamo; i javiše Joavu govoreæi: Avenir sin Nirov dolazio je k caru, i on ga otpusti te otide s mirom.
24 Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came to thee; why is it [that] thou hast sent him away, and he is gone?
I Joav otide k caru i reèe: šta uèini? Gle, Avenir je dolazio k tebi; zašto ga pusti te otide?
25 Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive thee, to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou doest.
Poznaješ li Avenira sina Nirova? dolazio je da te prevari, da vidi kuda hodiš i da dozna sve šta radiš.
26 And when Joab was come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, who brought him again from the well of Sirah; but David did not know it.
Potom otišav Joav od Davida posla ljude za Avenirom da ga vrate od studenca Sire, a David ne znadijaše za to.
27 And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him secretly, and smote him there in the belly, that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother.
I kad se vrati Avenir u Hevron, odvede ga Joav na stranu pod vrata kao da govori s njim nasamo; ondje ga udari pod peto rebro, te umrije za krv Asaila brata njegova.
28 And afterwards David heard [it], and he said, I and my kingdom are guiltless before Jehovah for ever from the blood of Abner the son of Ner:
A kad David poslije to èu, reèe: ja nijesam kriv ni carstvo moje pred Gospodom dovijeka za krv Avenira sina Nirova.
29 let it fall on the head of Joab, and on all his father's house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that has an issue, or that is a leper, or that leans on a staff, or that falls by the sword, or that lacks bread!
Neka padne na glavu Joavovu i na sav dom oca njegova; i neka dom Joavov ne bude nikad bez èovjeka bolna od teèenja ili gubava ili koji ide o štapu ili koji padne od maèa ili koji nema hljeba.
30 So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.
Tako Joav i Avisaj brat njegov ubiše Avenira što on pogubi Asaila brata njihova kod Gavaona u boju.
31 And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him, Rend your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And king David followed the bier.
I reèe David Joavu i svemu narodu koji bijaše s njim: razderite haljine svoje i pripašite kostrijet, i plaèite za Avenirom. I car David iðaše za nosilima.
32 And they buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.
A kad pogreboše Avenira u Hevronu, car podiže glas svoj i plaka na grobu Avenirovu; plaka i sav narod.
33 And the king lamented over Abner, and said, Should Abner die as a fool dieth?
I narièuæi za Avenirom reèe: umrije li Avenir kako umire bezumnik?
34 Thy hands were not bound, Nor thy feet put into fetters; As a man falleth before wicked men, Fellest thou! And all the people wept again over him.
Ruke tvoje ne biše vezane, niti noge tvoje u okov okovane; pao si kao što se pada od nevaljalijeh ljudi. Tada još veæma plaka za njim sav narod.
35 And all the people came to cause David to eat bread while it was yet day; but David swore, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or aught else till the sun be down!
I doðe sav narod nudeæi Davida da jede što, dok još bijaše dan; ali se David zakle i reèe: Bog neka mi uèini tako, i tako neka doda, ako okusim hljeba ili što drugo dok ne zaðe sunce.
36 And all the people remarked it, and it pleased them; as whatever the king did pleased all the people.
I sav narod èu to, i bi im po volji; što god èinjaše car, bješe po volji svemu narodu.
37 And all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to put Abner the son of Ner to death.
I pozna sav narod i sav Izrailj u onaj dan da nije bilo od cara što pogibe Avenir sin Nirov.
38 And the king said to his servants, Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?
I car reèe slugama svojim: ne znate li da je vojvoda i to veliki poginuo danas u Izrailju?
39 And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too hard for me: Jehovah reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness!
Ali ja sam sada još slab, ako i jesam pomazani car; a ovi ljudi, sinovi Serujini, vrlo su mi silni. Neka Gospod plati onome koji èini zlo prema zloæi njegovoj.
