2 Samuel 1
1 After the death of Saul, when Dauid was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites and had beene two dayes in Ziklag,
Poslije Šaulove smrti David se vratio kući pobijedivši Amalečane. Dva je dana proveo u Siklagu.
2 Behold, a man came the third day out of the host from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head: and when hee came to Dauid, he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
Trećega dana dođe neki čovjek iz Šaulova tabora, razdrtih haljina i prahom posute glave. Došavši k Davidu, baci se na zemlju i pokloni mu se.
3 Then Dauid saide vnto him, Whence commest thou? And he said vnto him, Out of the host of Israel I am escaped.
David ga upita: “Odakle dolaziš?” A on mu odgovori: “Umakao sam iz izraelskog tabora.”
4 And Dauid saide vnto him, What is done? I pray thee, tell me. Then he said, that the people is fled from the battel, and many of the people are ouerthrowen, and dead, and also Saul and Ionathan his sonne are dead.
A David ga upita: “Što se dogodilo? Pripovijedaj mi!” On odvrati: “Narod je pobjegao iz boja, a mnogo je ljudi i poginulo. Mrtvi su i Šaul i njegov sin Jonatan.”
5 And Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Howe knowest thou that Saul and Ionathan his sonne be dead?
Nato David upita mladoga glasonošu: “Kako znaš da je poginuo Šaul i njegov sin Jonatan?”
6 Then the yong man that tolde him, answered, As I came to mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned vpon his speare, and loe, the charets and horsemen followed hard after him.
A mladi glasonoša odgovori: “Slučajno sam došao na goru Gilbou i vidio Šaula kako se upro u svoje koplje, a bojna kola i konjanici natisnuli se za njim.
7 And when he looked backe, he saw me, and called me. And I answered, Here am I.
Šaul, obazrevši se, ugleda mene pa me zovnu, a ja mu se odazvah: 'Evo me!'
8 And he said vnto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
I upita me on: 'Tko si ti?' A ja mu odgovorih: 'Amalečanin sam.'
9 Then saide hee vnto me, I pray thee come vpon mee, and slay me: for anguish is come vpon me, because my life is yet whole in me.
Tada mi on reče: 'Dođi ovamo k meni pa me ubij, jer me obuzeo smrtni grč, a duša je još sva u meni!'
10 So I came vpon him, and slewe him, and because I was sure that hee coulde not liue, after that hee had fallen, I tooke the crowne that was vpon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arme, and brought them hither vnto my lord.
Pristupih k njemu i zadadoh mu smrtni udarac, jer sam znao da neće preživjeti nakon pada. Zatim uzeh kraljevski znak koji mu bijaše na glavi i narukvicu koju imaše na ruci i, evo, donesoh to svome gospodaru.”
11 Then Dauid tooke hold on his clothes, and rent them, and likewise al the men that were with him.
Tada David zgrabi svoje haljine i razdrije ih, a tako i svi ljudi koji bijahu s njim.
12 And they mourned and wept, and fasted vntil euen, for Saul and for Ionathan his sonne, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel, because they were slaine with the sword.
I naricali su, plakali i postili do večera za Šaulom i za njegovim sinom Jonatanom, za Jahvinim narodom i za domom Izraelovim što izginuše od mača.
13 Afterward Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Whence art thou? And hee answered, I am the sonne of a stranger an Amalekite.
Potom David upita mladoga glasonošu: “Odakle si ti?” A on odgovori: “Ja sam sin jednoga došljaka, Amalečanina.”
14 And Dauid said vnto him, How wast thou not afrayd, to put forth thine hand to destroy the Anoynted of the Lord?
Tada mu reče David: “Kako se nisi bojao dići ruku da ubiješ pomazanika Jahvina?”
15 Then Dauid called one of his yong men, and said, Goe neere, and fall vpon him. And hee smote him that he dyed.
I dozva David jednoga od momaka i zapovjedi mu: “Dođi ovamo i smakni ga!” Udari ga momak i on umrije.
16 Then said Dauid vnto him, Thy blood be vpon thine owne head: for thine owne mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I haue slaine the Lords Anoynted.
A David mu još doviknu: “Tvoja krv na tvoju glavu! Tvoja su usta posvjedočila protiv tebe kad si rekao: 'Ja sam ubio pomazanika Jahvina.'”
17 Then Dauid mourned with this lamentation ouer Saul, and ouer Ionathan his sonne,
Tada David zapjeva ovu tužaljku za Šaulom i za njegovim sinom Jonatanom.
18 (Also he bade them teach the children of Iudah to shoote, as it is written in the booke of Iasher)
Zapisana je u Knjizi Pravednikovoj da je uče sinovi Judini. David reče:
19 O noble Israel, hee is slane vpon thy hie places: how are the mightie ouerthrowen!
“Oh, kako ti slava pade, Izraele, izginuše div-junaci na tvom visu!
20 Tell it not in Gath, nor publish it in the streetes of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistims reioyce, lest the daughters of the vncircumcised triumph.
O porazu vi u Gatu ne pričajte, aškelonskim ulicama ne glasite, da se kćeri ne vesele filistejske, mlade žene da ne kliču nevjerničke.
21 Ye mountaines of Gilboa, vpon you be neither dewe nor raine, nor be there fieldes of offrings: for there the shielde of the mightie is cast downe, the shielde of Saul, as though he had not bene anointed with oyle.
O Gilbojske gore klete, rosa na vas ne padala nit vas kiša s neba prala! Vaša polja ne vraćala rod za sjeme, jer kod vas je osramoćen štit junaka! Štit Šaulov nije bio uljem mazan,
22 The bow of Ionathan neuer turned backe, neither did the sword of Saul returne emptie from the blood of the slaine, and from the fatte of the mightie.
nego krvlju ranjenika, mašću palih! Luk Jonate nikad nije promašio, mač Šaulov nikad bezuspješan bio!
23 Saul and Ionathan were louely and pleasant in their liues, and in their deaths they were not deuided: they were swifter then eagles, they were stronger then lions.
Šaul i Jonata, ljupki, ponositi, ni živi se ne rastaše, ni u smrti! Od orlova bjehu brži, od lavova snagom jači!
24 Yee daughters of Israel, weepe for Saul, which clothed you in skarlet, with pleasures, and hanged ornaments of gold vpon your apparel.
Za Šaulom sad plačite, Izraelke, jer je u kras i u grimiz vas odijevo! Uz to zlatan nakit on je na ruho vam pričvršćivo.
25 Howe were the mightie slaine in the mids of the battel! O Ionathan, thou wast slaine in thine hie places.
Usred boja poginuše div-junaci! Smrt me tvoja, Jonatane, ožalosti!
26 Wo is me for thee, my brother Ionathan: very kinde hast thou bene vnto me: thy loue to me was wonderfull, passing the loue of women:
Žao mi je tebe, brate, Jonatane! Kako li mi drag bijaše ti veoma! Ljubav tvoja bješe meni još od ženske čudesnija.
27 howe are the mightie ouerthrowen, and the weapons of warre destroyed!
Oh, kako su izginuli div-junaci, i oružje bojno kako skršeno je!”
