< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 So the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, "Tell me how you judge this case. There were two men in a certain city, the one rich and the other poor.
I posla Gospod Natana k Davidu; i on došav k njemu reèe mu: u jednom gradu bijahu dva èovjeka, jedan bogat a drugi siromah.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Bogati imaše ovaca i goveda vrlo mnogo;
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had acquired. And he raised it and it grew up alongside him and his children. It used to eat of his morsel and drink from his cup and sleep in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.
A siromah nemaše ništa do jednu malu ovèicu, koju bješe kupio, i hranjaše je, te odraste uza nj i uz djecu njegovu, i jeðaše od njegova zalogaja, i iz njegove èaše pijaše, i na krilu mu spavaše, i bijaše mu kao kæi.
4 Now a traveler came to the rich man, but he was unwilling to take from his own flock or his own herd to prepare for the traveler who had come to him, but took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him."
A doðe putnik k bogatome èovjeku, a njemu bi žao uzeti iz svojih ovaca ili goveda da zgotovi putniku koji doðe k njemu; nego uze ovcu onoga siromaha, i zgotovi je èovjeku, koji doðe k njemu.
5 Then David became very angry with that man, and he said to Nathan, "As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves death.
Tada se David vrlo razgnjevi na onoga èovjeka, i reèe Natanu: tako živ bio Gospod, zaslužio je smrt onaj koji je to uèinio.
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity."
I ovcu neka plati uèetvoro, što je to uèinio i nije mu žao bilo.
7 Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man. This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Tada reèe Natan Davidu: ti si taj. Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja sam te pomazao za cara nad Izrailjem, i ja sam te izbavio iz ruku Saulovijeh.
8 I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your care, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
I dao sam ti dom gospodara tvojega, i žene gospodara tvojega na krilo tvoje, dao sam ti dom Izrailjev i Judin; i ako je malo, dodao bih ti to i to.
9 Why have you despised the LORD, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hethite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the people of Ammon.
Zašto si prezreo rijeè Gospodnju èineæi što njemu nije po volji? Uriju Hetejina ubio si maèem i uzeo si ženu njegovu sebi za ženu, a njega si ubio maèem sinova Amonovijeh.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hethite to be your wife.'
Zato neæe se odmaæi maè od doma tvojega dovijeka, što si me prezreo i uzeo ženu Urije Hetejina da ti bude žena.
11 "This is what the LORD says: 'Look, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes, and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na te zlo iz doma tvojega, i uzeæu žene tvoje na tvoje oèi, i daæu ih bližnjemu tvojemu, te æe spavati sa ženama tvojim na vidiku svakomu.
12 For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'"
Jer ti si uèinio tajno, ali æu ja ovo uèiniti pred svijem Izrailjem i svakomu na vidiku.
13 David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." Nathan said to David, "The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.
Tada reèe David Natanu: sagriješih Gospodu. A Natan reèe Davidu: i Gospod je pronio grijeh tvoj; neæeš umrijeti.
14 However, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the LORD, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."
Ali što si tijem djelom dao priliku neprijateljima Gospodnjim da hule, zato æe ti umrijeti sin koji ti se rodio.
15 Then Nathan went to his home. And God struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
Potom Natan otide svojoj kuæi. A Gospod udari dijete koje rodi žena Urijina Davidu, te se razbolje na smrt.
16 Then David sought from God on behalf of the child. And David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
I David se moljaše Bogu za dijete, i pošæaše se David, i došavši ležaše preko noæ na zemlji.
17 And the elders of his house approached him to lift him up from the ground, but he was unwilling, and he would not eat food with them.
I starješine doma njegova ustaše oko njega da ga podignu sa zemlje, ali on ne htje, niti jede što s njima.
18 It happened on the seventh day, that the child died. The servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, "Look, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?"
A kad bi sedmi dan, umrije dijete; i ne smijahu sluge Davidove javiti mu da je dijete umrlo, jer govorahu: evo, dok dijete bijaše živo, govorasmo mu, pa nas ne htje poslušati; a kako æemo mu kazati: umrlo je dijete? hoæe ga ucvijeliti.
19 But when David noticed that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead."
A David videæi gdje sluge njegove šapæu meðu sobom, dosjeti se da je umrlo dijete; i reèe David slugama svojim: je li umrlo dijete? A oni rekoše: umrlo je.
20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the house of the LORD, and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked for bread to eat. And they set bread before him, and he ate.
Tada David usta sa zemlje, i umi se, i namaza se i preobuèe se; i otide u dom Gospodnji, i pokloni se. Potom opet doðe kuæi svojoj, i zaiska da mu donesu da jede; i jede.
21 Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept and kept vigil for the child while he was alive; but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread."
A sluge njegove rekoše mu: šta to radiš? dok bijaše dijete živo, postio si i plakao; a kad umrije dijete, ustao si i jedeš.
22 He said, "While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, 'Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
A on reèe: dok dijete bijaše živo, postio sam i plakao, jer govorah: ko zna, može se smilovati Gospod na me da dijete ostane živo.
23 But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me."
A sada umrlo je; što bih postio? mogu li ga povratiti? ja æu otiæi k njemu, ali on neæe se vratiti k meni.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;
Potom David utješi Vitsaveju ženu svoju, i otide k njoj, i leže s njom. I ona rodi sina, kojemu nadje ime Solomun. I mio bješe Gospodu.
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD's sake.
I posla Natana proroka, te mu nadje ime Jedidija, radi Gospoda.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city.
A Joav bijuæi Ravu sinova Amonovih, uze carski grad.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, "I have fought against Rabbah, and have also taken the water supply of the city.
I posla poslanike k Davidu, i reèe: bih Ravu, i uzeh grad na vodi.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and capture it yourself, or I will capture the city, and it will be named after me."
Nego sada skupi ostali narod, i stani u oko prema gradu, i uzmi ga, da ga ne bih ja uzeo i moje se ime spominjalo na njemu.
29 David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
I David skupiv sav narod otide na Ravu, i udari na nju, i uze je.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David's head. He brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
I uze caru njihovu s glave krunu, u kojoj bješe talanat zlata, s dragim kamenjem, i metnuše je na glavu Davidu, i odnese iz grada plijen vrlo velik.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, and iron picks, and iron axes, and to labor at the brick kiln. And he did the same to all the cities of the people of Ammon. David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
A narod koji bijaše u njemu izvede i metnu ih pod pile i pod brane gvozdene i pod sjekire gvozdene, i sagna ih u peæi gdje se opeke peku. I tako uèini svijem gradovima sinova Amonovijeh. Potom se vrati David sa svijem narodom u Jerusalim.
