2 Samuel 21
1 Now there was a famine in the days of David for three consecutive years, so David sought the face of Jehovah. And Jehovah said, "There is bloodguilt on Saul and on his house, because he murdered the Gibeonites."
U dane Davidove vladaše jednom glad tri godine uzastopce. David se obrati Jahvi, a Jahve mu odgovori: “Na Šaulu i njegovu domu leži krvna krivnja jer je pogubio Gibeonce.”
2 So the king summoned the Gibeonites, and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel but of the remnant of the Amorites. And the children of Israel had sworn to them, but Saul sought to exterminate them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.)
Tada kralj sazva Gibeonce da ih pita. Ti Gibeonci nisu pripadali Izraelcima, nego su bili ostatak Amorejaca, kojima se Izraelci bijahu zakleli zakletvom, ali je Šaul tražio da ih uništi u svojoj revnosti za Izraelce i Judejce.
3 And David said to the Gibeonites, "What can I do for you? And how can I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of Jehovah?"
David, dakle, upita Gibeonce: “Što da vam učinim i čime da vam dadem zadovoljštinu da biste blagoslovili baštinu Jahvinu?”
4 The Gibeonites said to him, "It is not a matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house, nor is it our place to put anyone to death in Israel." Then he said, "What do you want? For I will do it for you."
Gibeonci odgovoriše: “Ne tražimo mi ni srebra ni zlata od Šaula i njegova doma, niti nam je stalo da se pogubi koji čovjek u Izraelu.” David će im nato: “Što reknete učinit ću za vas.”
5 So they said to the king, "The man who opposed us and persecuted us, who meant to eradicate us from having a place anywhere in the territory of Israel,
A oni odgovoriše kralju: “Čovjek koji nas je zatirao i koji je smišljao da nas uništi, da nas ne bude nigdje u svemu izraelskom području,
6 let seven of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them before Jehovah at Gibeon on the mountain of Jehovah." And the king replied, "I will do it."
od njegovih potomaka neka nam se preda sedam ljudi da ih objesimo pred Jahvom u Gibeonu na gori Jahvinoj.” Kralj odvrati: “Dat ću vam ih.”
7 But the king spared Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of Jehovah's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
Kralj poštedje Meribaala, sina Šaulova sina Jonatana, zbog zakletve pred Jahvom koja ih je vezala, Davida i Jonatana, sina Šaulova.
8 But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mippibaal; and the five sons of Merob the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
Tako kralj uze oba sina Rispe, Ajine kćeri, koje je rodila Šaulu, Armonija i Meribaala, i svih pet sinova Merabe, Šaulove kćeri, koje je rodila Adrielu, sinu Barzilajevu, iz Mehole.
9 And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the mountain before Jehovah, and all seven of them fell together. And they were put to death in the first days of harvest at the beginning of barley harvest.
Njih dade u ruke Gibeoncima, a oni ih objesiše na gori pred Jahvom. Tako sva sedmorica poginuše zajedno, pogubljeni prvih dana žetve, na početku ječmene žetve.
10 And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on a rock, from the beginning of harvest until it rained on them from the sky. And she did not allow the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the wild animals by night.
Rispa, Ajina kći, uze kostrijet i prostrije je za sebe na stijeni od početka ječmene žetve sve dok nije kiša s neba pala na mrtva tijela, i tako nije dala nebeskim pticama da se spuštaju na njih danju ni poljskim zvijerima noću.
11 It was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the secondary wife of Saul, had done.
Kad su Davidu javili što je učinila Ajina kći Rispa, Šaulova inoča,
12 Then David went and obtained the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan from the citizens of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hung them on the day that the Philistines killed Saul on Gilboa;
ode David i uze Šaulove kosti i kosti njegova sina Jonatana od stanovnika Jabeša Gileadskog, koji ih bijahu potajno odnijeli s trga u Bet Šanu, gdje su ih objesili Filistejci u onaj dan kad su Filistejci porazili Šaula na Gilboi.
13 and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son. And they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
David prenese odande Šaulove kosti i kosti njegova sina Jonatana pa ih združi s kostima pogubljenih.
14 And he buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan in the land of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father. And they performed all that the king commanded. After that God responded to prayers for the land.
I ukopaše Šaulove kosti i kosti njegova sina Jonatana s kostima pogubljenih u zemlji Benjaminovoj, u Seli, u grobu Šaulova oca Kiša. Pošto izvršiše sve što je kralj zapovjedio, Bog se smilova zemlji.
15 The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. Now David became exhausted,
Jednom opet nasta rat između Filistejaca i Izraelaca. David ode u boj sa svojim ljudima te su se borili s Filistejcima tako da se David umorio.
16 and Dodo son of Joash, of the descendants of the Raphah, captured him. His spear weighed three hundred bronze shekels, and he was girded with a new sword, and he thought he could kill David.
Išibenob, jedan od Rafinih potomaka, čije je koplje bilo teško tri stotine mjedenih šekela i koji o pripasu imaše nov mač, hvastao se tada da će ubiti Davida.
17 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David took an oath, saying, "You must not go out to battle with us again, so that you do not extinguish the lamp of Israel."
Ali Davidu priskoči u pomoć Sarvijin sin Abišaj; udari on Filistejca te ga ubi. Tada se Davidovi ljudi zakleše rekavši Davidu: “Nećeš više ići s nama u boj, da ne ugasiš svjetiljke Izraelove!”
18 Now it came to pass after this that there was another battle with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, a descendant of the Raphah.
Poslije toga opet izbi rat s Filistejcima u Gobu; tada je Hušanin Sibkaj pogubio Sipaja, jednoga od Rafinih potomaka.
19 There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
Uz to nasta rat s Filistejcima u Gobu; tada je Jairov sin Elhanan iz Betlehema pogubio Golijata Gitejca, koji je imao kopljaču kao tkalačko vratilo.
20 There was another battle at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had on six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty four in number, and he also was a descendant of Raphah.
Potom opet izbi rat u Gatu, gdje je bio neki čovjek visoka rasta: imaše taj na svakoj ruci i nozi po šest prstiju, dakle dvadeset i četiri; i on bijaše potomak Rafin.
21 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him.
Kad je počeo ružiti Izraela, ubi ga Jonatan, sin Davidova brata Šimeja.
22 These four were descendants of Raphah in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Ta četvorica bijahu potomci istoga Rafe iz Gata, a poginuše od ruke Davidove i od ruku njegovih slugu.
