1 Samuel 25

1 And Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

U tom umrije Samuilo i sabra se sav Izrailj, i plakaše za njim, i pogreboše ga u domu njegovu u Rami. A David usta i siðe u pustinju Faransku.

2 And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

A bijaše jedan èovjek u Maonu, a stoka mu bijaše na Karmilu; i bijaše èovjek vrlo bogat, jer imaše tri tisuæe ovaca i tisuæu koza, i tada strizijaše ovce svoje na Karmilu.

3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail; and the woman was of good understanding, and of a beautiful form; but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.

I bješe ime tomu èovjeku Naval, a ženi mu ime Avigeja; i ona bijaše žena razumna i lijepa, a on bijaše tvrda srca i opak, a bijaše od roda Halevova.

4 And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.

I David èu u pustinji da Naval striže ovce.

5 And David sent ten young men, and David said unto the young men: 'Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name;

I posla David deset momaka, i reèe David momcima: idite na Karmil, i otidite k Navalu, i pozdravite ga od mene.

6 and thus ye shall say: All hail! and peace be both unto thee, and peace be to thy house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.

I recite mu: zdravo! i mir da ti je, i domu tvojemu da je mir, i svemu što imaš da je mir!

7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers; thy shepherds have now been with us, and we did them no hurt, neither was there aught missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.

Èuo sam da strižeš ovce; pastiri su tvoji bivali kod nas, i ne uèinismo im nepravde, i ništa im nije nestalo dokle god bijahu na Karmilu.

8 Ask thy young men, and they will tell thee; wherefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes; for we come on a good day; give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thy hand, unto thy servants, and to thy son David.'

Pitaj sluge svoje, i kazaæe ti. Neka ovi momci naðu milost pred tobom, jer doðosmo u dobar dan. Daj slugama svojim i Davidu sinu svojemu što ti doðe do ruke.

9 And when David's young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.

I doðoše momci Davidovi, i kazaše Navalu u ime Davidovo sve ove rijeèi, i umuèaše.

10 And Nabal answered David's servants, and said: 'Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there are many servants now-a-days that break away every man from his master;

A Naval odgovori slugama Davidovijem i reèe: ko je David? i ko je sin Jesejev? Danas ima mnogo sluga koje bježe od svojih gospodara.

11 shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men of whom I know not whence they are?'

Eda li æu uzeti hljeb svoj i vodu svoju i meso što sam poklao za ljude koji mi strigu ovce, pa dati ljudima kojih ne znam odakle su?

12 So David's young men turned on their way, and went back, and came and told him according to all these words.

Tada se vratiše momci Davidovi svojim putem, vratiše se, i došavši kazaše mu sve ove rijeèi.

13 And David said unto his men: 'Gird ye on every man his sword.' And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword; and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the baggage.

A David reèe svojim ljudima: pripašite svaki svoj maè. I pripasaše svaki svoj maè, i David pripasa svoj maè; i poðe za Davidom do èetiri stotine ljudi, a dvjesta ostaše kod prtljaga.

14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying: 'Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he flew upon them.

Ali Avigeji ženi Navalovoj kaza jedan izmeðu sluga njegovijeh govoreæi: evo, David posla iz pustinje poslanike da pozdravi gospodara našega, a on ih otjera.

15 But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields;

A ti su nam ljudi bili vrlo dobri, niti nam uèiniše krivo, niti nam èega nesta dokle god bijasmo kod njih u polju.

16 they were a wall unto us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.

Nego nam bijahu zidovi i noæu i danju, dokle god bijasmo kod njih pasuæi ovce.

17 Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a base fellow, that one cannot speak to him.'

Zato sada gledaj i promisli šta æeš èiniti, jer je gotovo zlo gospodaru našemu i svemu domu njegovu; a on je zao èovjek, da mu se ne može govoriti.

18 Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.

Tada Avigeja brže uze dvjesta hljebova i dvije mješine vina i pet ovaca zgotovljenijeh i pet mjerica pržena žita, i sto grozdova suhoga grožða i dvjesta gruda suhih smokava, i metnu na magarce.

19 And she said unto her young men: 'Go on before me; behold, I come after you.' But she told not her husband Nabal.

I reèe momcima svojim: hajdete naprijed, a ja æu iæi za vama. A mužu svojemu Navalu ništa ne reèe.

20 And it was so, as she rode on her ass, and came down by the covert of the mountain, that, behold, David and his men came down towards her; and she met them. —

I sjedavši na magarca iðaše ispod gore, a gle, David i ljudi njegovi slažahu pred nju, i sukobi se s njima.

21 Now David had said: 'Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him; and he hath returned me evil for good.

A David govoraše: ele sam zaludu èuvao sve što je taj imao u pustinji da mu ništa ne bješe nestalo od svega što ima; jer mi vrati zlo za dobro.

22 God do so unto the enemies of David, and more also, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light so much as one male.' —

To neka uèini Bog neprijateljima Davidovijem i to neka doda, ako mu do zore od svega što ima ostavim i ono što mokri uza zid.

23 And when Abigail saw David, she made haste, and alighted from her ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed down to the ground.

A kad Avigeja ugleda Davida, brže siðe s magarca, i pade pred Davidom na lice svoje i pokloni se do zemlje;

24 And she fell at his feet, and said: 'Upon me, my lord, upon me be the iniquity; and let thy handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine ears, and hear thou the words of thy handmaid.

I padnuvši mu k nogama reèe: na meni, gospodaru, neka bude ta krivica; ali da progovori sluškinja tvoja tebi, i èuj rijeèi sluškinje svoje.

25 Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this base fellow, even Nabal; for as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and churlishness is with him; but I thy handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.

Neka gospodar moj ne gleda na toga nevaljaloga èovjeka, Navala, jer je kao ime što mu je; Naval mu je ime, i bezumlje je kod njega. A ja sluškinja tvoja nijesam vidjela momaka gospodara svojega, koje si slao.

26 Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from bloodguiltiness, and from finding redress for thyself with thine own hand, now therefore let thine enemies, and them that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.

Zato sada, gospodaru, tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, Gospod ti ne da da ideš na krv i da se osvetiš svojom rukom. Zato sada neka bude neprijateljima tvojim kao Navalu i svjema koji traže zla gospodaru mojemu.

27 And now this present which thy servant hath brought unto my lord, let it be given unto the young men that follow my lord.

Evo dar što je donijela sluškinja gospodaru svojemu, da se da momcima koji idu za gospodarom mojim.

28 Forgive, I pray thee, the trespass of thy handmaid; for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD; and evil is not found in thee all thy days.

Oprosti sluškinji svojoj krivicu; jer æe Gospod zacijelo naèiniti tvrdu kuæu gospodaru mojemu; jer ratove Gospodnje vodi gospodar moj i nije se našlo zlo na tebi nikad tvoga vijeka.

29 And though man be risen up to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul, yet the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as from the hollow of a sling.

I da ustane èovjek da te goni i traži dušu tvoju, duša æe gospodara mojega biti vezana u svežnju živijeh kod Gospoda Boga tvojega, a duše æe neprijatelja tvojih baciti kao iz praæe.

30 And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that He hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee prince over Israel;

I kad Gospod uèini gospodaru mojemu svako dobro koje ti je obrekao, i postavi te voðem Izrailju,

31 that this shall be no stumbling-block unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood without cause, or that my lord hath found redress for himself. And when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thy handmaid.'

Neæe ti biti spoticanja ni sablazni srcu gospodara mojega da je prolio krv ni za što i da se sam osvetio gospodar moj. I kad uèini Gospod dobro gospodaru mojemu, opomenuæeš se sluškinje svoje.

32 And David said to Abigail: 'Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me;

Tada reèe David Avigeji: da je blagosloven Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji te danas posla meni na susret!

33 and blessed be thy discretion, and blessed be thou, that hast kept me this day from bloodguiltiness, and from finding redress for myself with mine own hand.

I da su blagoslovene rijeèi tvoje, i ti da si blagoslovena, koja me odvrati danas da ne idem na krv i osvetim se svojom rukom.

34 For in very deed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, liveth, who hath withholden me from hurting thee, except thou hadst made haste and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light so much as one male.'

Doista, tako živ bio Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji mi ne dade da ti uèinim zlo, da mi nijesi brže izašla na susret, ne bi ostalo Navalu do zore ni ono što uza zid mokri.

35 So David received of her hand that which she had brought him; and he said unto her: 'Go up in peace to thy house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.'

I primi David iz ruke njezine što mu bješe donijela, i reèe joj: idi s mirom kuæi svojoj; eto, poslušah te, i pogledah na te.

36 And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken; wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.

Potom se Avigeja vrati k Navalu; a gle, kod njega gozba u kuæi, kao carska gozba, i srce Navalu bješe veselo, i bijaše pijan vrlo. Zato mu ona ne reèe ništa do jutra.

37 And it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

A ujutru, kad se Naval otrijezni, kaza mu žena sve ovo; a u njemu obamrije srce njegovo, i on posta kao kamen.

38 And it came to pass about ten days after, that the LORD smote Nabal, so that he died.

A kad proðe do deset dana, udari Gospod Navala, te umrije.

39 And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said: 'Blessed be the LORD, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept back His servant from evil; and the evil-doing of Nabal hath the LORD returned upon his own head.' And David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to him to wife.

A kad David èu da je umro Naval, reèe: da je blagosloven Gospod, koji osveti sramotu moju od Navala, i zadrža slugu svojega oda zla, a obrati Gospod Navalu na glavu zloæu njegovu. Potom posla David i poruèi Avigeji da æe je uzeti za ženu.

40 And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke unto her, saying: 'David hath sent us unto thee, to take thee to him to wife.'

I sluge Davidove doðoše k Avigeji na Karmil, i rekoše joj govoreæi: David nas posla k tebi da te uzme za ženu.

41 And she arose, and bowed down with her face to the earth, and said: 'Behold, thy handmaid is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.'

A ona usta i pokloni se licem do zemlje, i reèe: evo sluškinje tvoje, da služi i da pere noge slugama gospodara svojega.

42 And Abigail hastened, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.

Potom brže usta Avigeja, i sjede na magarca, i pet djevojaka njezinijeh poðe za njom, i otide za poslanicima Davidovijem, i posta mu žena.

43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they became both of them his wives.

A David uze i Ahinoamu iz Jezraela, i obje mu bjehu žene.

44 Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.

Jer Saul dade Mihalu kæer svoju, ženu Davidovu, Faltiju sinu Laisovu iz Galima.
