< 1 Samuel 30 >
1 And it came to pass, when David and his men were come to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the south, and Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag, and burned it with fire;
И трећи дан дође Давид са својим људима у Сиклаг, а Амалици беху ударили на јужну страну и на Сиклаг, и развалили Сиклаг и огњем га спалили.
2 And had taken the women captives, that were therein: they slew not any, either great or small, but carried them away, and went on their way.
И беху заробили женскиње које беше онде, и мало и велико; али не беху убили никога, него их беху одвели и отишли својим путем.
3 So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives.
И кад Давид дође са својим људима у град, а то град спаљен огњем, и жене њихове и синови и кћери њихове заробљене.
4 Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep.
И подиже Давид и народ који беше с њим глас свој, и плакаше докле већ не могоше плакати.
5 And David’s two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
И обе жене Давидове заробише се, Ахиноама из Језраела и Авигеја из Кармила, жена Навалова.
6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.
И Давид беше на муци великој, јер народ говораше да га заспу камењем; јер жалостан беше сав народ, сваки за синовима својим и за кћерима својим; али се Давид охрабри у Господу Богу свом.
7 And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, I pray you, bring me here the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David.
И рече Давид Авијатару свештенику сину Ахимелеховом: Узми оплећак за ме. И узе Авијатар оплећак за Давида.
8 And David inquired at the LORD, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for you shall surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.
И упита Давид Господа говорећи: Хоћу ли потерати ту чету? Хоћу ли је стигнути? А Господ му рече: Потерај, јер ћеш зацело стигнути и избавићеш.
9 So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and came to the brook Besor, where those that were left behind stayed.
И пође Давид са шест стотина људи што беху с њим, и дођоше до потока Восора; и онде осташе једни.
10 But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed behind, which were so faint that they could not go over the brook Besor.
А Давид са четири стотине људи потера даље, а двеста људи оста, који сусташе те не могоше прећи преко потока Восора.
11 And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he did eat; and they made him drink water;
И нађоше једног Мисирца у пољу, и доведоше га к Давиду, и дадоше му хлеба да једе и воде да пије,
12 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins: and when he had eaten, his spirit came again to him: for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights.
И дадоше му груду смокава и два грозда сува. И поједавши опорави се, јер три дана и три ноћи не беше ништа јео нити воде пио.
13 And David said to him, To whom belong you? and from where are you? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick.
Тада му рече Давид: Чији си ти? И одакле си? А он рече: Ја сам родом Мисирац, слуга једног Амалика, а господар ме остави, јер се разболех пре три дана.
14 We made an invasion on the south of the Cherethites, and on the coast which belongs to Judah, and on the south of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire.
Ударисмо на јужну страну херетејску и на Јудину и на јужну страну Халевову, и Сиклаг спалисмо огњем.
15 And David said to him, Can you bring me down to this company? And he said, Swear to me by God, that you will neither kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring you down to this company.
А Давид му рече: Би ли ме могао одвести к тој чети? А он рече: Закуни ми се Богом да ме нећеш погубити ни издати у руке мом господару, па ћу те одвести к тој чети.
16 And when he had brought him down, behold, they were spread abroad on all the earth, eating and drinking, and dancing, because of all the great spoil that they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
И одведе га; и гле, они се беху раширили по свој земљи оној једући и пијући и веселећи се великим пленом који запленише из земље филистејске и из земље Јудине.
17 And David smote them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day: and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, which rode on camels, and fled.
И Давид их би од вечера до вечера другог дана, те нико не утече, осим четири стотине младића, који седавши на камиле побегоше.
18 And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away: and David rescued his two wives.
И тако избави Давид све што беху узели Амалици, и обе жене своје избави Давид.
19 And there was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor any thing that they had taken to them: David recovered all.
И ништа не изгубише, ни мало ни велико, ни синове ни кћери, ни шта од плена и од свега што им беху узели; све поврати Давид.
20 And David took all the flocks and the herds, which they drove before those other cattle, and said, This is David’s spoil.
Такође узе Давид и остале све овце и волове, које гонећи пред својом стоком говораху: Ово је плен Давидов.
21 And David came to the two hundred men, which were so faint that they could not follow David, whom they had made also to abide at the brook Besor: and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him: and when David came near to the people, he saluted them.
И кад се врати Давид к оним двеста људи који беху сустали те не могаше ићи за Давидом, и које остави на потоку Восору, изиђоше на сусрет Давиду и народу који беше с њим. И Давид приступивши к народу поздрави их.
22 Then answered all the wicked men and men of Belial, of those that went with David, and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them any of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away, and depart.
Тада проговорише сви зли и неваљали људи између оних који су ишли с Давидом, и рекоше: Што нису ишли с нама, зато да им не дамо од плена који избависмо, него сваки жену своју и синове своје нека узму, па нек иду.
23 Then said David, You shall not do so, my brothers, with that which the LORD has given us, who has preserved us, and delivered the company that came against us into our hand.
Али Давид рече: Немојте тако чинити, браћо моја, с оним што нам је дао Господ који нас је сачувао и дао нам у руке чету која беше изашла на нас.
24 For who will listen to you in this matter? but as his part is that goes down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarries by the stuff: they shall part alike.
И ко ће вас послушати у томе? Јер какав је део оном који иде у бој такав је и оном који остане код пртљага; једнако треба да поделе.
25 And it was so from that day forward, that he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day.
Тако би од тог дана унапредак, и то поста уредба и закон у Израиљу до данас.
26 And when David came to Ziklag, he sent of the spoil to the elders of Judah, even to his friends, saying, Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of the LORD;
И кад дође Давид у Сиклаг, посла он плена старешинама Јудиним, пријатељима својим, говорећи: Ево вам дар од плена непријатеља Господњих;
27 To them which were in Bethel, and to them which were in south Ramoth, and to them which were in Jattir,
Онима у Ветиљу, и онима у Рамоту на југу, и онима у Јатиру,
28 And to them which were in Aroer, and to them which were in Siphmoth, and to them which were in Eshtemoa,
И онима у Ароиру, и онима у Сифмоту, и онима у Естемоји,
29 And to them which were in Rachal, and to them which were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to them which were in the cities of the Kenites,
И онима у Рахалу, и онима у градовима јерамеилским, и онима у градовима кенејским,
30 And to them which were in Hormah, and to them which were in Chorashan, and to them which were in Athach,
И онима у Орми, и онима у Хор-Асану, и онима у Атаху,
31 And to them which were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were wont to haunt.
И онима у Хеврону и по свим местима у која је долазио Давид с људима својим.
