1 Samuel 14
1 And the day comes that Jonathan son of Saul says to the young man carrying his weapons, “Come, and we pass over to the station of the Philistines, which [is] on the other side of this”; and he has not declared [it] to his father.
Jednoga dana Šaulov sin Jonatan reče svome momku štitonoši: “Hajde da prijeđemo do filistejske straže koja je ondje prijeko.” Svome ocu nije ništa o tom javio.
2 And Saul is abiding at the extremity of Gibeah, under the pomegranate which [is] in Migron, and the people who [are] with him [are] about six hundred men,
Šaul je sjedio na međi Gebe, pod šipkom koji je stajao kraj gumna; a bilo je s njim oko šest stotina ljudi.
3 and Ahiah, son of Ahitub, brother of Ichabod, son of Phinehas son of Eli priest of YHWH in Shiloh, [was] bearing an ephod; and the people did not know that Jonathan has gone.
A Ahija, sin Ahituba, brata Ikaboda, sina Pinhasa, sina Elija, svećenika Jahvina u Šilu, nosio je u to vrijeme oplećak. Narod nije primijetio da je Jonatan otišao.
4 And between the passages where Jonathan sought to pass over to the station of the Philistines [is] the edge of a rock on one side, and the edge of a rock on the other side, and the name of one is Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
U sredini klanca kuda je Jonatan htio prijeći da dođe do filistejske straže bila je litica s jedne strane i litica s druge strane. Jedna se zvala Boses, a druga Sene.
5 One edge [is] fixed on the north in front of Michmash, and the one on the south in front of Gibeah.
Prva je litica stajala na sjeveru nasuprot Mikmasu, a druga na jugu nasuprot Gebi.
6 And Jonathan says to the young man carrying his weapons, “Come, and we pass over to the station of these uncircumcised; it may be YHWH works for us, for there is no restraint to YHWH to save by many or by few.”
Jonatan reče svome štitonoši: “Hajde da prijeđemo do straže onih neobrezanika. Možda će Jahve učiniti nešto za nas, jer ništa ne priječi Jahvu da udijeli pobjedu - bilo mnogo ljudi ili malo.”
7 And the bearer of his weapons says to him, “Do all that [is] in your heart; turn for yourself; behold, I [am] with you, as your own heart.”
A štitonoša mu odgovori: “Čini sve na što te srce tvoje potiče. Ja ću s tobom, moje je srce kao tvoje srce.”
8 And Jonathan says, “Behold, we are passing over to the men, and are revealed to them;
Jonatan mu reče: “Evo, prijeći ćemo k tim ljudima i pokazat ćemo im se.
9 if they thus say to us, Stand still until we have come to you, then we have stood in our place, and do not go up to them;
Ako nam reknu ovako: 'Ne mičite se dok ne dođemo do vas', tada ćemo se ustaviti na mjestu i nećemo se uspinjati k njima.
10 and if they thus say, Come up against us, then we have gone up, for YHWH has given them into our hand, and this [is] the sign to us.”
Ako li nam reknu ovako: 'Uspnite se k nama', tada ćemo se uspeti, jer ih je Jahve predao nama u ruke. To će nam biti znak.”
11 And both of them are revealed to the station of the Philistines, and the Philistines say, “Behold, Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hid themselves.”
Kad su se obojica pokazala filistejskoj straži, rekoše Filistejci: “Gle, Hebreji su počeli izlaziti iz rupa u koje su se skrili.”
12 And the men of the station answer Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons, and say, “Come up to us, and we cause you to know something.” And Jonathan says to the bearer of his weapons, “Come up after me, for YHWH has given them into the hand of Israel.”
I stražari doviknuše Jonatanu i njegovu štitonoši: “Uspnite se k nama da vas nešto naučimo!” A Jonatan reče svome štitonoši: “Penji se za mnom, jer ih je Jahve predao u ruke Izraelove.”
13 And Jonathan goes up on his hands, and on his feet, and the bearer of his weapons after him; and they fall before Jonathan, and the bearer of his weapons is putting [them] to death after him.
Jonatan se poče penjati pomažući se rukama i nogama, a za njim njegov štitonoša. Filistejci su padali pred Jonatanom, a njegov ih je štitonoša ubijao za njim.
14 And the first striking which Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons have struck is of about twenty men, in about half a furrow of a yoke of a field,
U tome prvom pokolju što ga učiniše Jonatan i njegov štitonoša pade dvadesetak ljudi na otprilike pola jutra izoranog polja.
15 and there is a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the station and the destroyers have trembled—even they, and the earth shakes, and it becomes a trembling of God.
Tada se proširi strah po taboru i po polju, a i stražare i četu pljačkaša obuze strava; i zemlja zadrhta i bijaše to silan strah Božji.
16 And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin see, and behold, the multitude has melted away, and it goes on, and is beaten down.
A Šaulovi stražari u Benjaminovoj Gebi opaziše da se mnoštvo u taboru uskomešalo na sve strane.
17 And Saul says to the people who [are] with him, “Now inspect and see; who has gone from us?” And they inspect, and behold, Jonathan and the bearer of his weapons are not.
I Šaul reče ljudima koji su bili s njim: “Prozovite ljude i vidite tko je otišao od nas.” A kad prozvaše, gle, ne bijaše Jonatana i njegova štitonoše!
18 And Saul says to Ahiah, “Bring the Ark of God near”; for the Ark of God has been with the sons of Israel on that day.
Tada Šaul reče Ahiji: “Primakni oplećak! Posavjetuj se s Jahvom!” On je, naime, tada nosio oplećak pred sinovima Izraelovim.
19 And it comes to pass, while Saul spoke to the priest, that the noise which [is] in the camp of the Philistines goes on, going on and becoming great, and Saul says to the priest, “Remove your hand.”
Ali dok je Šaul govorio sa svećenikom, bivala je buka u filistejskom taboru sve veća, pa Šaul reče svećeniku: “Povuci ruku!”
20 And Saul is called, and all the people who [are] with him, and they come to the battle, and behold, the sword of each has been against his neighbor—a very great destruction.
Nato Šaul i sav narod što je bio s njim krenuše zajedno na mjesto boja, i gle, ondje bijahu isukali mačeve jedni na druge i velika pomutnja vladaše među njima.
21 And the Hebrews [who] have been with the Philistines before the day prior, who had gone up with them into the camp, have turned around, even they, to be with Israel who [are] with Saul and Jonathan,
A oni Hebreji koji su već poodavno bili u službi Filistejaca i sada pošli s njima na vojsku, odmetnuše se od njih i pristadoše uz Izraelce koji bijahu sa Šaulom i Jonatanom.
22 and all the men of Israel, who are hiding themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, have heard that the Philistines have fled, and they pursue—even they—after them in battle.
I svi Izraelci koji se bijahu sakrili u Efrajimovoj gori, čuvši da Filistejci bježe, nagrnuše za njima u boj.
23 And YHWH saves Israel on that day, and the battle has passed over to Beth-Aven.
Tako je Jahve udijelio pobjedu Izraelu u onaj dan, a boj se raširio sve do preko Bet Horona.
24 And the men of Israel have been distressed on that day, and Saul adjures the people, saying, “Cursed [is] the man who eats food until the evening, and I have been avenged of my enemies”; and none of the people have tasted food.
Izraelci su onog dana bili vrlo izmoreni, jer je Šaul izrekao nad narodom ovu zakletvu: “Proklet bio čovjek koji okusi hrane prije večeri, prije nego što se osvetim svojim neprijateljima!” Tako sav narod ne okusi hrane toga dana.
25 And all [those of] the land have come into a forest, and there is honey on the face of the field;
Ali je ondje bilo medenoga saća na površini zemlje.
26 and the people come into the forest, and behold, the honey dropped, and none is moving his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
Kad je narod došao onamo, vidje gdje teče med, ali nitko ne prinese ruke k ustima, jer se narod bojao zakletve.
27 And Jonathan has not heard of his father’s adjuring the people, and puts forth the end of the rod, which [is] in his hand, and dips it in the honeycomb, and brings back his hand to his mouth—and his eyes see!
Samo Jonatan, koji nije čuo kad je njegov otac zakleo narod, primače vrh štapa koji mu bijaše u ruci i zamoči ga u medeno saće, zatim prinese ruku k ustima; i odmah mu se zasvijetliše oči.
28 And a man of the people answers and says, “Your father certainly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who eats food today; and the people are weary.”
Tada jedan iz naroda progovori i reče mu: “Tvoj je otac zakleo narod govoreći: 'Proklet bio onaj koji okusi hrane danas!'”
29 And Jonathan says, “My father has troubled the land; now see that my eyes have become bright because I tasted a little of this honey.
A Jonatan odgovori: “Moj otac svaljuje nesreću na zemlju. Gledajte kako su mi se zasvijetlile oči jer sam okusio malo toga meda.
30 How much more if the people had well eaten today of the spoil of its enemies which it has found, for now the striking has not been great among the Philistines.”
Što bi tek bilo da je narod slobodno jeo od plijena koji je zadobio od neprijatelja? Ne bi li filistejski poraz bio još veći?”
31 And they strike on that day among the Philistines from Michmash to Aijalon, and the people are very weary,
Onoga dana potukoše Filistejce od Mikmasa sve do Ajalona, a narod je bio na kraju svojih snaga.
32 and the people make toward the spoil, and take sheep, and oxen, and sons of the herd, and slaughter on the earth, and the people eat with the blood.
Tada se narod baci na plijen, nahvata sitne stoke, goveda i teladi i poče ih klati na goloj zemlji i jesti meso s krvlju.
33 And they declare to Saul, saying, “Behold, the people are sinning against YHWH, to eat with the blood.” And he says, “You have dealt treacherously, roll a great stone to me today.”
I javiše to Šaulu govoreći: “Gle, narod griješi Jahvi jedući meso s krvlju!” A on reče: “Iznevjeriste se! Dovaljajte mi ovamo velik kamen!”
34 And Saul says, “Be scattered among the people, and you have said to them: Each bring his ox to me, and each his sheep; and you have slain [them] in this place, and eaten, and you do not sin against YHWH to eat with the blood.” And all the people bring [them]—each one [with] his ox in his hand, that night—and slaughter [them] there.
Zatim reče: “Zađite među narod i recite svima neka svaki dovede k meni svoga vola ili ovcu; ovdje ćete ih klati i jesti, a nećete griješiti Jahvi jedući meso s krvlju.” Tako sav narod još iste noći dovede što je tko imao i to su ondje klali.
35 And Saul builds an altar to YHWH; with it he has begun to build altars to YHWH.
A Šaul podiže žrtvenik Jahvi; bijaše to prvi žrtvenik koji je podigao Jahvi.
36 And Saul says, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and we prey on them until the morning light, and do not leave a man of them.” And they say, “Do all that is good in your eyes.” And the priest says, “Let us draw near to God here.”
Nato reče Šaul: “Pođimo još noćas u potjeru za Filistejcima i plijenimo ih dok ne svane jutro! Nećemo im ostaviti nijednoga čovjeka!” A narod mu odgovori: “Čini sve što misliš da je dobro!” Ali svećenik reče: “Pristupimo ovdje k Bogu!”
37 And Saul asks of God, “Do I go down after the Philistines? Do You give them into the hand of Israel?” And He has not answered him on that day.
I Šaul upita Boga: “Moram li poći u potjeru za Filistejcima? Hoćeš li ih predati u ruke Izraelu?” Ali mu ne odgovori u onaj dan.
38 And Saul says, “Everyone draw near here, the chiefs of the people, and know and see in what this sin has been today;
Zato Šaul reče: “Pristupite ovamo, svi narodni glavari! Ispitajte i vidite u čemu je bio današnji prestupak.
39 for YHWH lives, who is saving Israel: surely if it is in my son Jonathan, surely he certainly dies”; and none is answering him out of all the people.
Jer, živoga mi Jahve, koji daje pobjedu Izraelu, ako se nađe krivnja ma i na mome sinu Jonatanu, mora umrijeti!” Ali nitko se iz naroda ne usudi odgovoriti Šaulu.
40 And he says to all Israel, “You are on one side, and I and my son Jonathan are on another side”; and the people say to Saul, “Do that which is good in your eyes.”
Šaul onda reče svemu Izraelu: “Vi stanite na jednu stranu, a ja i moj sin Jonatan stat ćemo na drugu stranu.” A narod odgovori Šaulu: “Čini ono što misliš da je dobro!”
41 And Saul says to YHWH, God of Israel, “Give perfection”; and Jonathan and Saul are captured, and the people went out.
Tada se Šaul pomoli: “Jahve, Bože Izraelov, zašto nisi danas odgovorio svome sluzi? Ako je krivnja na meni ili na mome sinu Jonatanu, Jahve, Bože Izraelov, daj Urim; ako li je krivnja na tvom narodu Izraelu, daj Tumim.” I ždrijeb pade na Šaula i Jonatana, a narod izađe slobodan.
42 And Saul says, “Cast between me and my son Jonathan”; and Jonathan is captured.
Šaul nastavi: “Bacite ždrijeb između mene i moga sina Jonatana!” I ždrijeb pade na Jonatana.
43 And Saul says to Jonathan, “Declare to me, what have you done?” And Jonathan declares to him and says, “I certainly tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that [is] in my hand; behold, I die!”
Tada Šaul reče Jonatanu: “Priznaj mi što si učinio!” Jonatan odgovori: “Ja sam samo okusio malo meda vrškom štapa koji mi bijaše u ruci. Evo me, spreman sam umrijeti!”
44 And Saul says, “Thus God does, and thus does He add, for you certainly die, Jonathan.”
Šaul odgovori: “Tako mi Bog učinio zlo i dodao mi drugo ako doista ne umreš, Jonatane!”
45 And the people say to Saul, “Does Jonathan die who worked this great salvation in Israel? Certainly not! YHWH lives, if there falls to the earth [even one] hair from his head, for with God he has worked this day”; and the people rescue Jonathan, and he has not died.
Ali narod reče Šaulu: “Zar da umre Jonatan, koji je izvojevao ovu veliku pobjedu u Izraelu? Ne smije to biti! Živoga nam Jahve, nijedna vlas neće pasti s njegove glave na zemlju jer je on s Bogom izvršio ovo djelo danas!” Tako ga narod izbavi te Jonatan ne pogibe.
46 And Saul goes up from after the Philistines, and the Philistines have gone to their place;
Šaul odusta od potjere za Filistejcima, a Filistejci se vratiše u svoj kraj.
47 and Saul captured the kingdom over Israel, and he fights all around against all his enemies, against Moab, and against the sons of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and wherever he turns he distresses [them].
Kad je Šaul učvrstio svoju kraljevsku vlast nad Izraelom, okrenu ratovati protiv svih svojih neprijatelja unaokolo: protiv Moaba, protiv Amonaca, protiv Edoma, protiv Bet Rehoba, protiv kralja Sobe i protiv Filistejaca; kuda god bi se okrenuo, svuda bi pobjeđivao.
48 And he makes a force, and strikes Amalek, and delivers Israel out of the hand of its spoiler.
Dao je mnogo dokaza svoje hrabrosti, potukao je Amalečane i izbavio Izraela iz ruku onih koji su ga pljačkali.
49 And the sons of Saul are Jonathan, and Ishui, and Melchi-Shua; as for the name of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn [is] Merab, and the name of the younger Michal;
Šaulovi sinovi bijahu Jonatan, Išjo i Malki-Šua, a od njegovih dviju kćeri starija se zvala Meraba, a mlađa Mikala.
50 and the name of the wife of Saul [is] Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the head of his host [is] Abner son of Ner, uncle of Saul;
Šaulova se žena zvala Ahinoama, a bila je kći Ahimaasova. Vojvoda njegove vojske zvao se Abner, a bio je sin Nera, Šaulova strica.
51 and Kish [is] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abner, [is] the son of Ahiel.
Jer Kiš, Šaulov otac, i Ner, Abnerov otac, bijahu sinovi Abielovi.
52 And the war is severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul; when Saul has seen any mighty man, and any son of valor, then he gathers him to himself.
Žestok se rat vodio protiv Filistejaca svega Šaulova vijeka. Koga bi god hrabra ili bojovna čovjeka Šaul vidio, svakoga bi uzimao u svoju službu.
