1 Samuel 19
1 Then Saul spake to Ionathan his sonne, and to all his seruantes, that they shoulde kill Dauid: but Ionathan Sauls sonne had a great fauour to Dauid.
Šaul razloži svome sinu Jonatanu i svim svojim dvoranima svoju namjeru da ubije Davida. Ali Jonatan, Šaulov sin, vrlo je volio Davida.
2 And Ionathan told Dauid, saying, Saul my father goeth about to slay thee: nowe therefore, I pray thee, take heede vnto thy selfe vnto the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thy selfe.
I Jonatan to javi Davidu ovako: “Moj otac Šaul kani te ubiti. Budi, dakle, na oprezu sutra ujutro, ostani u skrovištu i pritaji se.
3 And I will go out, and stand by my father in the fielde where thou art, and will commune with my father of thee, and I will see what he sayth, and will tell thee.
A ja ću izaći i stajat ću pokraj svoga oca u polju gdje ti budeš i govorit ću za tebe sa svojim ocem. Kad saznam kako je, javit ću ti.”
4 And Ionathan spake good of Dauid vnto Saul his father, and said vnto him, Let not the King sinne against his seruat, against Dauid: for he hath not sinned against thee, but his works haue bene to thee very good.
Jonatan pohvali Davida svome ocu Šaulu i reče mu ovako: “Neka se kralj ne ogriješi o svoga slugu Davida jer se on nije ništa ogriješio o tebe; naprotiv, ono što je radio bilo je od velike koristi za tebe.
5 For he did put his life in daunger, and slew the Philistim, and the Lord wrought a great saluation for al Israel: thou sawest it, and thou reioycedst: wherefore then wilt thou sinne against innocent blood, and slay Dauid without a cause?
On je stavio život svoj na kocku, ubio je Filistejca i Jahve je pribavio veliku pobjedu svemu Izraelu: vidio si i radovao se. Zašto bi se, dakle, ogriješio o nevinu krv ubijajući Davida bez razloga?”
6 Then Saul hearkened vnto the voyce of Ionathan, and Saul sware, As the Lord liueth, he shall not dye.
Šaul posluša Jonatanove riječi i zakle se: “Živoga mi Jahve, David neće umrijeti!”
7 So Ionathan called Dauid, and Ionathan shewed him all those words, and Ionathan brought Dauid to Saul, and hee was in his presence as in times past.
Tada Jonatan dozva Davida i kaza mu sve te riječi. Zatim Jonatan dovede Davida k Šaulu i David opet dobi službu koju je imao prije.
8 Againe the warre began, and Dauid went out and fought with the Philistims, and slew them with a great slaughter, and they fled from him.
Kad je rat i opet buknuo, iziđe David na bojište da se bori s Filistejcima; i porazi ih tako da su pobjegli pred njim.
9 And the euill spirit of the Lord was vpon Saul, as hee sate in his house hauing his speare in his hand, and Dauid played with his hand.
Tada zao duh Jahvin obuze Šaula: kad je sjedio u svojoj kući, s kopljem u ruci, a David rukom udarao u harfu,
10 And Saul intended to smite Dauid to the wall with the speare: but hee turned aside out of Sauls presence, and he smote the speare against the wall: but Dauid fled, and escaped the same night.
Šaul pokuša da svojim kopljem pribode Davida uza zid, ali on izmakne Šaulovu udarcu te se koplje zabode u zid. David pobježe i spasi se.
11 Saul also sent messengers vnto Dauids house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning: and Michal Dauids wife told it him, saying, If thou saue not thy selfe this night, to morowe thou shalt be slayne.
Iste noći Šaul posla glasnike da nadziru Davidovu kuću jer je htio da ubije Davida u rano jutro. Ali Davidova žena Mikala javi to Davidu govoreći: “Ako noćas ne umakneš na sigurno mjesto, sutra ćeš biti mrtav!”
12 So Michal let Dauid downe through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
Tada Mikala spusti Davida kroz prozor. On ode i spasi se bijegom.
13 Then Michal tooke an image, and layde it in the bed, and put a pillow stuffed with goates heare vnder the head of it, and couered it with a cloth.
A Mikala uze idol, položi ga u postelju, stavi mu oko glave kozju dlaku i pokri ga pokrivačem.
14 And when Saul sent messengers to take Dauid, she sayd, He is sicke.
Kad je Šaul poslao glasnike da uhvate Davida, ona im reče: “Bolestan je.”
15 And Saul sent the messengers againe to see Dauid, saying, Bring him to me in the bed, that I may slay him.
Ali Šaul vrati glasnike natrag da vide Davida i zapovjedi im: “Donesite ga k meni u postelji da ga ubijem!”
16 And when the messengers were come in, behold, an image was in the bed, with a pillow of goates heare vnder the head of it.
A kad su glasnici ušli, gle: u postelji bješe idol, s kozjom dlakom oko glave!
17 And Saul said vnto Michal, Why hast thou mocked me so, and sent away mine enemie, that he is escaped? And Michal answered Saul, He said vnto me, Let me go, or els I will kill thee.
Tada Šaul reče Mikali: “Zašto si me tako prevarila i pustila moga neprijatelja da pobjegne i da se spasi?” A Mikala odgovori Šaulu: “On mi je rekao: 'Pusti me da odem, ili ću te ubiti!'”
18 So Dauid fled, and escaped, and came to Samuel to Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him: and he and Samuel went and dwelt in Naioth.
Tako je David pobjegao i spasio se. I ode on k Samuelu u Ramu i javi mu sve što mu je učinio Šaul. Potom odoše on i Samuel i nastaniše se u Najotu.
19 But one tolde Saul, saying, Beholde, Dauid is at Naioth in Ramah.
A Šaulu javiše ovako: “Eno Davida u Najotu u Rami.”
20 And Saul sent messengers to take Dauid: and when they sawe a company of Prophets prophecying, and Samuel standing as appoynted ouer them, the Spirit of God fell vpon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophecied.
Tada Šaul posla glasnike da uhvate Davida. Kad su oni vidjeli zbor proroka u proročkom zanosu, a Samuela im na čelu, obuze Božji duh i Šaulove glasnike te i oni padoše u proročki zanos.
21 And when it was tolde Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophecied likewise: againe Saul sent the third messengers, and they prophecied also.
Kad su to javili Šaulu, on posla druge glasnike, ali i oni padoše u proročki zanos. Potom Šaul posla i treće glasnike, ali i oni padoše u proročki zanos.
22 Then went he himselfe to Ramah, and came to a great well that is in Sechu, and he asked, and sayd, Where are Samuel and Dauid? and one sayd, Behold, they be at Naioth in Ramah.
Tada Šaul krenu sam u Ramu i kad dođe do velikog bunara kod Sekua, zapita: “Gdje su Samuel i David?” I odgovoriše mu: “Eno ih u Najotu u Rami.”
23 And he went thither, euen to Naioth in Ramah, and the Spirit of God came vpon him also, and he went prophecying vntill hee came to Naioth in Ramah.
On odmah pođe prema Najotu u Rami. Ali i njega obuze duh Božji te je išao u proročkom zanosu sve dok nije došao u Najot u Rami.
24 And he stript off his clothes, and he prophesied also before Samuel, and fell downe naked all that day and all that night: therefore they say, Is Saul also among the Prophets?
Tu i on svuče svoje haljine jer i njega obuze zanos pred Samuelom; zatim je legao gol i ostao tako cio onaj dan i svu noć. Tako je nastala uzrečica: “Zar je i Šaul među prorocima?”
