2 Samuel 4
1 And when Saul’s son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands were feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
А кад чу син Саулов да је погинуо Авенир у Хеврону, клонуше му руке, и сав се Израиљ смете.
2 And Saul’s son had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin.
А имаше син Саулов две војводе над четама; једном беше име Вана, другом беше име Рихав, синови Римона Вироћанина, од синова Венијаминових; јер се и Вирот бројаше Венијамину;
3 And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day.)
А Вироћани беху побегли у Гитајим, где осташе као дошљаци до данашњег дана.
4 And Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
И имаше Јонатан, син Саулов, сина хромог на ногу, коме беше пет година кад дође глас о смрти Сауловој и Јонатановој из Језраела, те га узе дадиља његова и побеже, и кад брзо бежаше, он паде и охрону; а име му беше Мефивостеј.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who lay on a bed at noon.
И пођоше синови Римона Вироћанина, Рихав и Вана, и дођоше у подне у кућу Исвостејеву; а он почиваше у подне.
6 And they came thither into the middle of the house, as though they would have fetched wheat; and they smote him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
И уђоше у кућу као да узму пшенице, и прободоше га под пето ребро Рихав и Вана, и побегоше.
7 For when they came into the house, he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him, and took his head, and got them away through the plain all night.
Кад уђоше у кућу, он лежаше на постељи својој у клети где спаваше, те га прободоше и убише, и одсекоше му главу и узеше је, па отидоше путем преко поља целу ону ноћ.
8 And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David to Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ishbosheth the son of Saul your enemy, which sought your life; and the LORD has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.
И донесоше главу Исвостејеву Давиду у Хеврон, и рекоше цару: Ево главе Исвостеја сина Сауловог, непријатеља твог, који је тражио душу твоју; и Господ освети данас цара, господара мог, од Саула и семена његовог.
9 And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Али Давид одговарајући Рихаву и Вану, брату његовом, синовима Римона Вироћанина, рече им: Тако да је жив Господ, који је избавио душу моју из сваке невоље.
10 When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who thought that I would have given him a reward for his tidings:
Кад оног који ми јави говорећи: Гле, погибе Саул, и мишљаше да ће ми јавити добре гласе, ухватих и убих у Сиклагу, и то му би од мене дар за гласе његове,
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed? shall I not therefore now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?
А камоли људе безбожне, који убише човека правог, у кући његовој, на постељи његовој! Нећу ли тражити крв његову из ваших руку, и вас истребити са земље?
12 And David commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up over the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth, and buried it in the sepulcher of Abner in Hebron.
И заповеди Давид момцима својим, те их погубише, и одсекоше им руке и ноге, и обесише код језера хевронског; а главу Исвостејеву узеше и погребоше у гробу Авенировом у Хеврону.
