< 1 Samuel 25 >
1 And Samuel died, and all Israel was gathered together, and they mourned for him, and buried him in his house in Ramatha. And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.
У том умре Самуило и сабра се сав Израиљ, и плакаше за њим, и погребоше га у дому његовом у Рами. А Давид уста и сиђе у пустињу Фаранску.
2 Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
А беше један човек у Маону, а стока му беше на Кармилу; и беше човек врло богат, јер имаше три хиљаде оваца и хиљаду коза, и тада стрижаше овце своје на Кармилу.
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.
И беше име том човеку Навал, а жени му име Авигеја; и она беше жена разумна и лепа, а он беше тврда срца и опак, а беше од рода Халевовог.
4 And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,
И Давид чу у пустињи да Навал стриже овце.
5 He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.
И посла Давид десет момака, и рече Давид момцима: Идите на Кармил, и отидите к Навалу, и поздравите га од мене.
6 And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.
И реците му: Здраво! И мир да ти је, и дому твом да је мир, и свему што имаш да је мир!
7 I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.
Чуо сам да стрижеш овце; пастири су твоји бивали код нас, и не учинисмо им неправде, и ништа им није нестало докле год беху на Кармилу.
8 Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.
Питај слуге своје, и казаће ти. Нека ови момци нађу милост пред тобом, јер дођосмо у добар дан. Дај слугама својим и Давиду сину свом што ти дође до руке.
9 And when David’s servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David’s name: and then held their peace.
И дођоше момци Давидови, и казаше Навалу у име Давидово све ове речи, и ућуташе.
10 But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.
А Навал одговори слугама Давидовим и рече: Ко је Давид? И ко је син Јесејев? Данас има много слуга које беже од својих господара.
11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?
Еда ли ћу узети хлеб свој и воду своју и месо што сам поклао за људе који ми стрижу овце, па дати људима којих не знам одакле су?
12 So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.
Тада се вратише момци Давидови својим путем, вратише се, и дошавши казаше му све ове речи.
13 Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.
А Давид рече својим људима: Припашите сваки свој мач. И припасаше сваки свој мач, и Давид припаса свој мач; и пође за Давидом до четири стотине људи, а двеста осташе код пртљага.
14 But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.
Али Авигеји, жени Наваловој, каза један између слуга његових говорећи: Ево, Давид посла из пустиње посланике да поздрави господара нашег, а он их отера.
15 These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.
А ти су нам људи били врло добри. Нити нам учинише криво, нити нам чега неста докле год бејасмо код њих у пољу.
16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
Него нам беху зидови и ноћу и дању, докле год бејасмо код њих пасући овце.
17 Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.
Зато сада гледај и промисли шта ћеш чинити, јер је готово зло господару нашем и свему дому његовом; а он је зао човек, да му се не може говорити.
18 Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:
Тада Авигеја брже узе двеста хлебова и две мешине вина и пет оваца зготовљених и пет мерица прженог жита, и сто гроздова сувог грожђа и двеста груда сувих смокава, и метну на магарце.
19 And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.
И рече момцима својим: Хајдете напред, а ја ћу ићи за вама. А мужу свом Навалу ништа не рече.
20 And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.
И седавши на магарца иђаше испод горе, а гле Давид и људи његови силажаху пред њу, и сукоби се с њима.
21 And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.
А Давид говораше: Еле сам залуду чувао све што је тај имао у пустињи да му ништа не беше нестало од свега што има; јер ми врати зло за добро.
22 May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.
То нека учини Бог непријатељима Давидовим и то нека дода, ако му до зоре од свега што има оставим и оно што мокри уз зид.
23 And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.
А кад Авигеја угледа Давида, брже сиђе с магарца, и паде пред Давидом на лице своје и поклони се до земље;
24 And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.
И паднувши му к ногама рече: На мени, господару, нека буде та кривица; али да проговори слушкиња твоја теби, и чуј речи слушкиње своје.
25 Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.
Нека господар мој не гледа на тог неваљалог човека, Навала, јер је као име што му је; Навал му је име, и безумље је код њега. А ја слушкиња твоја нисам видела момке господара свог које си слао.
26 Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.
Зато сада, господару, тако жив био Господ и тако жива била душа твоја, Господ ти не да да идеш на крв и да се осветиш својом руком. Зато сада нека буде непријатељима твојим као Навалу и свима који траже зла господару мом.
27 Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.
Ево дар што је донела слушкиња господару свом, да се да момцима који иду за господарем мојим.
28 Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.
Опрости слушкињи својој кривицу; јер ће Господ зацело начинити тврду кућу господару мом; јер ратове Господње води господар мој и није се нашло зло на теби никад за твог века.
29 For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.
И да устане човек да те гони и тражи душу твоју, душа ће господара мог бити везана у свежњу живих код Господа Бога твог, а душе ће непријатеља твојих бацити као из праћке.
30 And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,
И кад Господ учини господару мом свако добро које ти је обрекао, и постави те вођом Израиљу,
31 This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.
Неће ти бити спотицања ни саблазни срцу господара мог да је пролио крв низашта и да се сам осветио господар мој. И кад учини Господ добро господару мом, опоменућеш се слушкиње своје.
32 And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:
Тада рече Давид Авигеји: Да је благословен Господ Бог Израиљев, који те данас посла мени на сусрет!
33 And blessed be thou, who hast kept me today, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.
И да су благословене речи твоје, и ти да си благословена, која ме одврати данас да не идем на крв и осветим се својом руком.
34 Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
Доиста, тако жив био Господ Бог Израиљев, који ми не даде да ти учиним зло, да ми ниси брже изашла на сусрет, не би остало Навалу до зоре ни оно што уза зид мокри.
35 And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.
И прими Давид из руке њене шта му беше донела, и рече јој: Иди с миром кући својој; ето, послушах те, и погледах на те.
36 And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal’s heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.
Потом се Авигеја врати к Навалу; а гле, код њега гозба у кући, као царска гозба, и срце Навалу беше весело, и беше пијан врло. Зато му она не рече ништа до јутра.
37 But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
А ујутру кад се Навал отрезни, каза му жена све ово; а у њему обамре срце његово, и он поста као камен.
38 And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.
А кад прође до десет дана, удари Господ Навала, те умре.
39 And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.
А кад Давид чу да је умро Навал, рече: Да је благословен Господ, који освети срамоту моју од Навала, и задржа слугу свог ода зла, а обрати Господ Навалу на главу злоћу његову. Потом посла Давид и поручи Авигеји да ће је узети за жену.
40 And David’s servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.
И слуге Давидове дођоше к Авигеји на Кармил, и рекоше јој говорећи: Давид нас посла к теби да те узме за жену.
41 And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
А она уста и поклони се лицем до земље, и рече: Ево слушкиње твоје, да служи и да пере ноге слугама господара свог.
42 And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Потом брже уста Авигеја, и седе на магарца, и пет девојака њених пође за њом, и отиде за посланицима Давидовим, и поста му жена.
43 Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.
А Давид узе и Ахиноаму из Језраела: и обе му беху жене.
44 But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David’s wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.
Јер Саул даде Михалу кћер своју, жену Давидовом, Фалтију сину Лаисовом из Галима.
