1 Samuel 26

1 Then the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, "Look, David is hiding himself on the hill of Hakilah, which is near Jeshimon."

Opet doðoše Zifeji k Saulu u Gavaju govoreæi: ne krije li se David na brdu Eheli prema Gesimonu?

2 Then Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.

A Saul se podiže i siðe u pustinju Zifsku, i s njim tri tisuæe ljudi izabranijeh iz Izrailja, da traži Davida u pustinji Zifskoj.

3 Saul camped on the hill of Hakilah, which is before Jeshimon, near the road. But David stayed in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.

I stade Saul u oko na brdu Eheli prema Gesimonu kraj puta; a David osta u pustinji, i opazi da Saul ide za njim u pustinju.

4 David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul had certainly come.

I posla David uhode, i od njih dozna zacijelo da je došao Saul.

5 David arose, and came to the place where Saul had camped; and David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army: and Saul lay within the place of the wagons, and the people were camped around him.

Tada se podiže David i doðe na mjesto gdje Saul bijaše s vojskom. I David vidje mjesto gdje spavaše Saul i Avenir sin Nirov vojvoda njegov; a spavaše Saul meðu kolima a narod ležaše oko njega.

6 Then answered David and said to Ahimelech the Hethite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab, saying, "Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp?" Abishai said, "I will go down with you."

I David progovori i reèe Ahimelehu Hetejinu i Avisaju sinu Serujinu bratu Joavovu: ko æe siæi sa mnom k Saulu u oko? A Avisaj odgovori: ja æu siæi s tobom.

7 So David and Abishai came to the people by night: and, look, Saul lay sleeping within the place of the wagons, with his spear stuck in the ground at his head; and Abner and the people lay around him.

I tako David i Avisaj doðoše noæu k narodu; a gle, Saul ležaše i spavaše izmeðu kola, i koplje mu bješe èelo glave pobodeno u zemlju; Avenir pak i narod ležahu oko njega.

8 Then Abishai said to David, "God has delivered up your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore please let me strike him with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not strike him the second time."

Tada reèe Avisaj Davidu: danas ti dade Bog neprijatelja tvojega u ruke; zato sada da ga probodem kopljem za zemlju jedanput, neæu više.

9 David said to Abishai, "Do not destroy him; for who can put forth his hand against Jehovah's anointed, and be guiltless?"

A David reèe Avisaju: nemoj ga ubiti; jer ko æe podignuti ruku svoju na pomazanika Gospodnjega i biti prav?

10 David said, "As Jehovah lives, Jehovah will strike him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall go down into battle and perish.

Još reèe David: tako živ bio Gospod, Gospod æe ga ubiti, ili æe doæi dan njegov da umre, ili æe izaæi u boj i poginuti.

11 Jehovah forbid that I should put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed; but now please take the spear that is at his head, and the jar of water, and let us go."

Ne dao mi Bog da dignem ruku svoju na pomazanika Gospodnjega! Nego uzmi sada koplje što mu je èelo glave i èašu za vodu, pa da idemo.

12 So David took the spear and the jar of water at his head, and they went away. And no one saw it or knew about it, nor did any awake. For they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from Jehovah had fallen on them.

I David uze koplje i èašu za vodu, što bješe èelo glave Saulu, i otidoše; i niko ih ne vidje ni osjeti, niti se koji probudi, nego svi spavahu; jer bješe napao na njih tvrd san od Gospoda.

13 Then David crossed over to the other side and stood on the top of the hill some distance away; there was a great distance between them.

I David prešav na drugu stranu stade navrh brda izdaleka; i bješe izmeðu njih mnogo mjesta.

14 And David called to the people, and to Abner, saying, "Will you not answer, Abner?" Then Abner replied, "Who are you that calls?"

I stade David vikati narod i Avenira sina Nirova govoreæi: što se ne odzivaš, Avenire? A Avenir se odazva i reèe: koji si ti što vièeš cara?

15 David said to Abner, "Aren't you a man? Who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your lord, the king? For one of the people came in to destroy the king your lord.

A David reèe Aveniru: nijesi li ti junak? i ko je kao ti u Izrailju? Zašto nijesi èuvao cara gospodara svojega? Jer je išao jedan iz naroda da ubije gospodara tvojega.

16 This thing isn't good that you have done. As Jehovah lives, you are worthy to die, because you have not kept watch over your lord, Jehovah's anointed. Now look, where is the king's spear, and where is the jar of water that was by his head?"

Nijesi dobro radio. Tako da je živ Gospod, zaslužili ste smrt što nijeste èuvali gospodara svojega, pomazanika Gospodnjega. Eto, gledaj, gdje je koplje carevo i èaša za vodu što mu bješe èelo glave?

17 Saul knew David's voice, and said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" David said, "It is my voice, my lord, O king."

Tada Saul pozna glas Davidov, i reèe: je li to tvoj glas, sine Davide? A David reèe: moj je glas, care gospodaru!

18 He said, "Why does my lord pursue after his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?

Još reèe: zašto gospodar moj goni slugu svojega? jer šta sam uèinio? i kako je zlo u ruci mojoj?

19 Now therefore, please let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it is so that God has stirred you up against me, let him accept an offering. But if it is from human beings, they are cursed before Jehovah; for they have driven me out this day that I shouldn't cling to Jehovah's inheritance, saying, 'Go, serve other gods.'

Zato sada care gospodaru moj, poslušaj rijeèi sluge svojega. Ako te Gospod draži na mene, neka mu je ugodan prinos tvoj; ako li sinovi èovjeèiji, prokleti su pred Gospodom, jer me izagnaše danas da se ne držim našljedstva Gospodnjega, i rekoše: idi, služi tuðim bogovima.

20 Now therefore, do not let my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of Jehovah; for the king of Israel has come out to seek my life, as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains."

Ali sada da ne padne krv moja na zemlju daleko od oèiju Gospodnjih; jer car Izrailjev izide da traži buhu jednu, kao kad ko goni jarebicu po planini.

21 Then Saul said, "I have sinned. Come back, my son David, for I will not harm you, because my life was precious in your eyes this day. Look, I have behaved foolishly, and have made a great mistake."

Tada reèe Saul: zgriješio sam; vrati se, sine Davide, neæu ti otsele èiniti zla, kad ti danas draga bi duša moja; evo, ludo sam radio i pogriješio sam veoma.

22 And David answered and said, "Look, the king's spear. Now let one of the young men come over and get it.

A David odgovori i reèe: evo koplja careva; neka doðe koji od momaka i neka ga uzme.

23 Jehovah will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness; because Jehovah delivered you into my hand today, and I wouldn't put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed.

A Gospod æe platiti svakome po pravdi njegovoj i po vjeri njegovoj. Jer te bješe predao Gospod danas u ruke moje, ali ne htjeh dignuti ruke svoje na pomazanika Gospodnjega.

24 Look, as your life was respected this day in my eyes, so let my life be respected in the eyes of Jehovah, and let him deliver me out of all oppression."

I zato, evo, kako je danas meni draga bila duša tvoja, tako neka bude draga moja duša pred Gospodom, i neka me izbavi iz svake nevolje.

25 Then Saul said to David, "You are blessed, my son. You will accomplish much, and will surely be successful." So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.

A Saul reèe Davidu: da si blagosloven, sine moj Davide! izvršiæeš i nadvladaæeš. Tada David otide svojim putem, a Saul se vrati u svoje mjesto.
