2 Samuel 12
1 The Lord sent Nathan to see David. When he got there, he said, “Once there were two men living in the same town. One was rich, and one was poor.
I posla Gospod Natana k Davidu; i on došav k njemu reèe mu: u jednom gradu bijahu dva èovjeka, jedan bogat a drugi siromah.
2 The rich man had many thousands of sheep and cattle,
Bogati imaše ovaca i goveda vrlo mnogo;
3 but the poor man didn't have anything but one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He cared for it, and it grew up with him and his children. It would eat from his plate and drank from his cup. It slept on his lap and was like a daughter to him.
A siromah nemaše ništa do jednu malu ovèicu, koju bješe kupio, i hranjaše je, te odraste uza nj i uz djecu njegovu, i jeðaše od njegova zalogaja, i iz njegove èaše pijaše, i na krilu mu spavaše, i bijaše mu kao kæi.
4 One day the rich man had a visitor. He didn't want to take one of his own sheep or cattle to feed his visitor. He took the poor man's lamb instead to prepare a meal for his visitor.”
A doðe putnik k bogatome èovjeku, a njemu bi žao uzeti iz svojih ovaca ili goveda da zgotovi putniku koji doðe k njemu; nego uze ovcu onoga siromaha, i zgotovi je èovjeku, koji doðe k njemu.
5 David became absolutely furious with what that man did, and angrily told Nathan. “As the Lord lives, the man who did this should be put to death!
Tada se David vrlo razgnjevi na onoga èovjeka, i reèe Natanu: tako živ bio Gospod, zaslužio je smrt onaj koji je to uèinio.
6 He must repay that lamb with four of his own for doing this, for being so heartless.”
I ovcu neka plati uèetvoro, što je to uèinio i nije mu žao bilo.
7 “You are that man!” Nathan told David. “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: I anointed you king of Israel, and I saved you from Saul.
Tada reèe Natan Davidu: ti si taj. Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja sam te pomazao za cara nad Izrailjem, i ja sam te izbavio iz ruku Saulovijeh.
8 I gave your master's house to you and placed your master's wives in your lap. I gave you the kingdom of Israel and Judah, and if that hadn't been enough, I would have given you so much more.
I dao sam ti dom gospodara tvojega, i žene gospodara tvojega na krilo tvoje, dao sam ti dom Izrailjev i Judin; i ako je malo, dodao bih ti to i to.
9 So why have you treated what Lord said with contempt by doing evil in his sight? You killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword and stole his wife—you killed him using the sword of the Ammonites.
Zašto si prezreo rijeè Gospodnju èineæi što njemu nije po volji? Uriju Hetejina ubio si maèem i uzeo si ženu njegovu sebi za ženu, a njega si ubio maèem sinova Amonovijeh.
10 So your descendants will always face the sword that kills because you treated me with contempt and stole Uriah's wife.
Zato neæe se odmaæi maè od doma tvojega dovijeka, što si me prezreo i uzeo ženu Urije Hetejina da ti bude žena.
11 This is what the Lord says: I'm going to bring disaster in you from your own family. I will take your wives before your very eyes and give them to someone else, and he will sleep openly with your wives where everyone can see.
Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na te zlo iz doma tvojega, i uzeæu žene tvoje na tvoje oèi, i daæu ih bližnjemu tvojemu, te æe spavati sa ženama tvojim na vidiku svakomu.
12 You did it all in secret, but I will do it openly where everyone in all of Israel can see.”
Jer ti si uèinio tajno, ali æu ja ovo uèiniti pred svijem Izrailjem i svakomu na vidiku.
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” “The Lord has forgiven your sins. You're not going to die,” Nathan replied.
Tada reèe David Natanu: sagriješih Gospodu. A Natan reèe Davidu: i Gospod je pronio grijeh tvoj; neæeš umrijeti.
14 “But because by doing this you have treated the Lord with complete contempt, the son you have will die.”
Ali što si tijem djelom dao priliku neprijateljima Gospodnjim da hule, zato æe ti umrijeti sin koji ti se rodio.
15 Then Nathan went home. The Lord made the child that Uriah's wife had borne to David become very sick.
Potom Natan otide svojoj kuæi. A Gospod udari dijete koje rodi žena Urijina Davidu, te se razbolje na smrt.
16 David pleaded with God on behalf of the boy. He fasted, went to his bedroom, and spent the night lying in sackcloth on the ground.
I David se moljaše Bogu za dijete, i pošæaše se David, i došavši ležaše preko noæ na zemlji.
17 His senior officials approached him and tried to help him up from the ground, but he didn't want to, and he refused their appeals to eat.
I starješine doma njegova ustaše oko njega da ga podignu sa zemlje, ali on ne htje, niti jede što s njima.
18 On the seventh day the child died. But David's officials were scared to tell him that the child was dead, for they said to each other, “Look, while the child was still alive, we talked with him, and he refused to listen to us. How on earth can we tell him the child is dead? He may do something really bad!”
A kad bi sedmi dan, umrije dijete; i ne smijahu sluge Davidove javiti mu da je dijete umrlo, jer govorahu: evo, dok dijete bijaše živo, govorasmo mu, pa nas ne htje poslušati; a kako æemo mu kazati: umrlo je dijete? hoæe ga ucvijeliti.
19 But David saw his officials were whispering among themselves, he realized that the child was dead. So he asked his officials, “Did the child die?” “Yes, he died,” they replied.
A David videæi gdje sluge njegove šapæu meðu sobom, dosjeti se da je umrlo dijete; i reèe David slugama svojim: je li umrlo dijete? A oni rekoše: umrlo je.
20 David got up from the ground, washed and put on scented oils, and changed his clothes. Then he went to the house of the Lord and worshiped. Afterwards he went back home, and asked for some food. So they served him a meal which he ate.
Tada David usta sa zemlje, i umi se, i namaza se i preobuèe se; i otide u dom Gospodnji, i pokloni se. Potom opet doðe kuæi svojoj, i zaiska da mu donesu da jede; i jede.
21 “Why are you acting like this?” his officials asked him. “While the child was still alive, you fasted and cried aloud, but now that he's dead, you get up and eat.”
A sluge njegove rekoše mu: šta to radiš? dok bijaše dijete živo, postio si i plakao; a kad umrije dijete, ustao si i jedeš.
22 David replied, “While the child was still alive, I fasted and cried aloud, for I thought to myself, ‘Who knows? Maybe the Lord will be gracious to me and let him live.’
A on reèe: dok dijete bijaše živo, postio sam i plakao, jer govorah: ko zna, može se smilovati Gospod na me da dijete ostane živo.
23 But now that he's dead, what's the point for me to go on fasting? Can I bring him back again? One day I will die and go to him, but he will never come back to me.”
A sada umrlo je; što bih postio? mogu li ga povratiti? ja æu otiæi k njemu, ali on neæe se vratiti k meni.
24 David consoled his wife Bathsheba, and he made love to her. She gave birth to a son, and named him Solomon. The Lord loved the child,
Potom David utješi Vitsaveju ženu svoju, i otide k njoj, i leže s njom. I ona rodi sina, kojemu nadje ime Solomun. I mio bješe Gospodu.
25 so he sent a message through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah, because the Lord loved him.
I posla Natana proroka, te mu nadje ime Jedidija, radi Gospoda.
26 At this time Joab had been fighting against the Ammonite town of Rabbah, and had captured the royal fortress.
A Joav bijuæi Ravu sinova Amonovih, uze carski grad.
27 Joab sent messengers to David to tell him, “I have attacked Rabbah and I have also captured its water supply.
I posla poslanike k Davidu, i reèe: bih Ravu, i uzeh grad na vodi.
28 So please call up the rest of the army, besiege the town, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and I will get the credit.”
Nego sada skupi ostali narod, i stani u oko prema gradu, i uzmi ga, da ga ne bih ja uzeo i moje se ime spominjalo na njemu.
29 So David called up the rest of the army and marched on Rabbah. He attacked it and captured it.
I David skupiv sav narod otide na Ravu, i udari na nju, i uze je.
30 He took the crown from the head of their king, and it was placed on David's head. It weighed a talent of gold and was decorated with precious stones. David took a large amount of plunder from the town.
I uze caru njihovu s glave krunu, u kojoj bješe talanat zlata, s dragim kamenjem, i metnuše je na glavu Davidu, i odnese iz grada plijen vrlo velik.
31 David took the inhabitants and forced them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he also made them work making bricks. He did the same in all the Ammonite towns. Then David and the whole Israelite army returned to Jerusalem.
A narod koji bijaše u njemu izvede i metnu ih pod pile i pod brane gvozdene i pod sjekire gvozdene, i sagna ih u peæi gdje se opeke peku. I tako uèini svijem gradovima sinova Amonovijeh. Potom se vrati David sa svijem narodom u Jerusalim.
