2 Samuel 5
1 All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and told him, “We are your flesh and blood.
Tada doðoše sva plemena Izrailjeva k Davidu u Hevron, i rekoše mu govoreæi: evo, mi smo kost tvoja i tijelo tvoje.
2 Previously when Saul was our king, you were the one who led the Israelite army into battle. The Lord told you, ‘You will be the shepherd of my people Israel, and you will be their ruler.’”
I prije, dok Saul bijaše car nad nama, ti si odvodio i dovodio Izrailja; i Gospod ti je rekao: ti æeš pasti narod moj Izrailja i ti æeš biti voð Izrailju.
3 All the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made an agreement with them in the Lord's presence. Then they anointed him king of Israel.
Tako doðoše sve starješine Izrailjeve k caru u Hevron, i uèini s njima car David vjeru u Hevronu pred Gospodom; i pomazaše Davida za cara nad Izrailjem.
4 David was thirty when he became king, and he reigned for forty years.
Trideset godina bijaše Davidu kad se zacari, i carova èetrdeset godina.
5 He reigned over Judah seven years and six months from Hebron, and he reigned over all of Israel and Judah for thirty-three years from Jerusalem.
U Hevronu carova nad Judom sedam godina i šest mjeseca; a u Jerusalimu carova trideset i tri godine nad svijem Izrailjem i Judom.
6 David the king and his men went to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites who were living there. The Jebusites told David: “You'll never enter here. Even the blind and lame could stop you.” They were convinced that David could not get in.
A car otide sa svojim ljudima u Jerusalim na Jevuseje, koji življahu u onoj zemlji. I oni rekoše Davidu govoreæi: neæeš uæi ovamo dok ne uzmeš slijepe i hrome, hoteæi kazati: neæe uæi ovamo David.
7 But David did capture the fortress of Zion, now known as the City of David.
Ali David uze kulu Sion, to je grad Davidov.
8 At that time he said, “If we are to successfully conquer the Jebusites we'll have to go up the water shaft to attack these ‘lame and blind’ —these people who hate David. This is why it's said, ‘The blind and the lame will never enter the house.’”
Jer reèe David u onaj dan: ko god pobije Jevuseje i doðe do jaza, i do slijepijeh i hromijeh, na koje mrzi duša Davidova, biæe vojvoda. Zato se kaže: slijepi i hromi da ne ulaze u ovu kuæu.
9 David went and lived in the fortress, and named it the City of David. He extended it in all directions, starting from the outer supporting terraces and moving inwards.
I sjede David u kuli, i nazva je gradom Davidovijem: i pogradi je David unaokolo od Milona i unutra.
10 David became increasingly powerful, for the Lord God Almighty was with him.
I David jednako napredovaše, jer Gospod Bog nad vojskama bješe s njim.
11 King Hiram of Tyre sent representatives to David, together with cedar timber, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
I Hiram car Tirski posla poslanike k Davidu, i kedrovijeh drva i drvodjelja i kamenara, i sagradiše kuæu Davidu.
12 David realized that the Lord had installed him as king of Israel, and had made his kingdom great for the sake of his people Israel.
I razumje David da ga je Gospod utvrdio za cara nad Izrailjem, i da je uzvisio carstvo njegovo radi naroda svojega Izrailja.
13 After he moved from Hebron, David added more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and he had more sons and daughters.
I uze David još inoèa i žena iz Jerusalima, pošto doðe iz Hevrona; i rodi se Davidu još sinova i kæeri.
14 These are the names of his children born in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
I ovo su imena onijeh koji mu se rodiše u Jerusalimu: Samuja i Sovav i Natan i Solomun,
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
I Jevar i Elisuja i Nafig i Jafija,
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
I Elisama i Elijada i Elifalet.
17 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king of Israel, the whole Philistine army came out to capture him, but David found out and went inside the stronghold.
A Filisteji èuvši da su pomazali Davida za cara nad Izrailjem, izidoše svi Filisteji da traže Davida; a David èuvši to, otide u kulu.
18 The Philistines came and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
I Filisteji došavši raširiše se po dolini Rafajskoj.
19 David asked the Lord “Should I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” “Yes, go,” the Lord replied, “for I will definitely hand them over to you.”
Tada David upita Gospoda govoreæi: hoæu li izaæi na Filisteje? Hoæeš li ih dati u moje ruke? A Gospod reèe Davidu: izaði; doista æu dati Filisteje u tvoje ruke.
20 David went to Baal-perazim and he defeated the Philistines there. “Like a flood that bursts out, so the Lord has burst out against my enemies right before me,” David declared. So he named that place Baal-perazim.
Tada David doðe u Val-Ferasim, i pobi ih ondje, i reèe: prodrije Gospod neprijatelje moje preda mnom kao kad voda prodire. Otuda se prozva ono mjesto Val-Ferasim.
21 The Philistines left their idols behind, and David and his men removed them.
I ostaviše ondje lažne bogove svoje; a David i ljudi njegovi odnesoše ih.
22 A while later the Philistines came again and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
I opet nanovo doðoše Filisteji, i raširiše se u dolini Rafajskoj.
23 David asked the Lord what to do. The Lord replied, “Don't attack them directly, but go round behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
I David upita Gospoda, koji reèe: ne idi pred njih, nego im zaði za leða, pa udari na njih prema dudovima.
24 Immediately you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees be ready, because this means the Lord has marched out before you to attack the Philistine camp.”
Pa kad èuješ da zašušti po vrhovima od dudova, onda se kreni, jer æe onda poæi Gospod pred tobom da pobije vojsku Filistejsku.
25 David followed the Lord's orders, and he slaughtered the Philistines from Geba all the way to Gezer.
I David uèini tako kako mu zapovjedi Gospod, i pobi Filisteje od Gavaje do Gezera.
