1 Samuel 18
1 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
I kad svrši razgovor sa Saulom, duša Jonatanova prionu za dušu Davidovu, i Jonatan ga zapazi kao svoju dušu.
2 And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his father’s house.
I uze ga Saul taj dan, i ne dade mu da se vrati kuæi oca svojega.
3 And David and Jonathan made a covenant, for be loved him as his own soul.
I Jonatan uèini vjeru s Davidom, jer ga ljubljaše kao svoju dušu.
4 And Jonathan stripped himself of the coat with which he was clothed, and gave it to David, and the rest of his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
I skide Jonatan sa sebe plašt, koji nošaše, i dade ga Davidu, i odijelo svoje i maè svoj i luk svoj i pojas svoj.
5 And David went out to whatsoever business Saul sent him, and he behaved himself prudently: and Saul set him over the soldiers, and he was acceptable in the eyes of all the people, and especially in the eyes of Saul’s servants.
I iðaše David na što ga god Saul pošiljaše, i bijaše sreæan, i postavi ga Saul nad vojnicima, i omilje svemu narodu, pa i slugama Saulovijem.
6 Now when David returned, after be slew the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with timbrels of joy, and cornets.
A kad se vraæahu, i kad se David vraæaše ubivši Filistejina, izlaziše žene iz svakoga grada Izrailjeva pjevajuæi i igrajuæi na susret caru Saulu, s bubnjima i s veseljem i guslama.
7 And the women sung as they played, and they said: I Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
I otpijevajuæi žene jedne drugima uza svirke govorahu: Saul zgubi svoju tisuæu, ali David svojih deset tisuæa.
8 And Saul was exceeding angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes, and he said: They have given David ten thousands, and to me they have given but a thousand; what can he have more but the kingdom?
I razgnjevi se Saul vrlo, i ne biše mu po volji te rijeèi, i reèe: Davidu dadoše deset tisuæa, a meni dadoše tisuæu; još mu samo carstvo treba.
9 And Saul did not look on David with a good eye from that day and forward.
I od toga dana Saul gledaše poprijeko Davida.
10 And the day after the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house. And David played with his hand as at other times. And Saul held a spear in his hand,
A sjutradan napade Saula zli duh Božji, te prorokovaše u kuæi, a David mu udaraše rukom svojom u gusle kao prije: a Saulu u ruci bješe koplje.
11 And threw it, thinking to nail David to the wall: and David stept aside out of his presence twice.
I Saul baci koplje govoreæi: da prikujem Davida za zid. Ali mu se David izmaèe dva puta.
12 And Saul feared David, because the Lord was with him, and was departed from himself.
I Saula bješe strah od Davida, jer Gospod bješe s njim, a od Saula bješe otstupio.
13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him a captain over a thousand men, and he went out and came in before the people.
Zato ga ukloni Saul od sebe, i postavi ga tisuænikom; i on odlažaše i dolažaše pred narodom.
14 And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.
I David bijaše sreæan u svemu što èinjaše, jer Gospod bijaše s njim.
15 And Saul saw that he was exceeding prudent, and began to beware of him.
A Saul videæi da je veoma sreæan, bojaše ga se.
16 But all Israel and Juda loved David, for he came in and went out before them.
A sav Izrailj i Juda ljubljaše Davida, jer on odlažaše i dolažaše pred njima.
17 And Saul said to David: Behold my elder daughter Merob, her will I give thee to wife: only be a valiant man, and fight the battles of the Lord. Now Saul said within himself: Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hands of the Philistines be upon him.
I reèe Saul Davidu: evo, kæer svoju stariju Meravu daæu ti za ženu, samo mi budi hrabar i vodi ratove Gospodnje. Jer Saul govoraše: neæu da se digne moja ruka na nj, nego Filistejska ruka neka se digne na nj.
18 And David said to Saul: Who am I, or what is my life, or my father’s family in Israel, that I should be son in law of the king?
A David reèe Saulu: ko sam ja i kakav je život moj ili dom oca mojega u Izrailju, da budem zet carev?
19 And it came to pass at the time when Merob the daughter of Saul should have been given to David, that she was given to Hadriel the Molathite to wife.
A kad doðe vrijeme da Meravu kæer Saulovu dadu Davidu, dadoše je Adrilu Meolaæaninu za ženu.
20 But Michol the other daughter of Saul loved David. And it was told Saul, and it pleased him.
Ali Davida ljubljaše Mihala kæi Saulova; a kad to javiše Saulu, bi mu po volji.
21 And Saul said: I will give her to him, that she may be a stumblingblock to him, and that the band of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David: In two things thou shalt be my son in law this day.
I reèe Saul: daæu mu je da mu bude zamka i da se diže na nj ruka Filistejska. A Davidu reèe Saul: biæeš mi danas zet s drugom.
22 And Saul commanded his servants to speak to David privately, saying: Behold thou pleasest the king, and all his servants love thee. Now therefore be the king’s son in law.
I zapovjedi Saul slugama svojim: recite Davidu tajno i govorite: gle, omilio si caru, i sve sluge njegove ljube te; budi sada zet carev.
23 And the servants of Saul spoke all these words in the ears of David. And David said: Doth it seem to you a small matter to be the king’s son in law? But I am a poor man, and of small ability.
I sluge Saulove rekoše te rijeèi Davidu, a David reèe: mislite li da je lako biti zet carev? ta ja sam siromah i mali èovjek.
24 And the servants of Saul told him, saying: Such words as these hath David spoken.
I Saulu javiše ovo sluge njegove govoreæi: ovako reèe David.
25 And Saul said: Speak thus to David: The king desireth not any dowry, but only a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king’s enemies. Now Saul thought to deliver David into the hands of the Philistines.
A Saul reèe: ovako recite Davidu: ne traži car uzdarja, nego sto okrajaka Filistejskih, da se car osveti svojim neprijateljima. A Saul mišljaše kako bi David pao u ruke Filistejima.
26 And when his servants had told David the words that Saul had said, the word was pleasing in the eyes of David to be the king’s son in law.
I sluge njegove kazaše Davidu te rijeèi, i Davidu bi po volji da postane carev zet. I vrijeme se još ne navrši.
27 And after a few days David rose up, and went with the men that were under him, and he slew of the Philistines two hundred men, and brought their foreskins and numbered them out to the king, that he might be his son in law. Saul therefore gave him Michol his daughter to wife.
A David usta i otide sa svojim ljudima, i pobi dvjesta Filisteja. I donese David okrajke njihove, i dadoše ih na broj caru da bi postao carev zet. I Saul mu dade za ženu Mihalu kæer svoju.
28 And Saul saw, and understood that the Lord was with David. And Michol the daughter of Saul loved him.
I Saul vidje i pozna da je Gospod sa Davidom; i Mihala kæi Saulova ljubljaše ga.
29 And Saul began to fear David more: and Saul became David’s enemy continually.
A Saul se još veæma poboja Davida; i bijaše Saul jednako neprijatelj Davidu.
30 And the princes of the Philistines went forth: and from the beginning of their going forth, David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, and his name became very famous.
A knezovi Filistejski udarahu; i kad god udarahu, David bijaše sreæniji od svijeh sluga Saulovijeh, i ime se njegovo vrlo proslavi.
