< 1 Samuel 21 >

1 Then David came to Nob to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech was shaking in fear when he met David, and said to him, "Why are you alone, and no one with you?"
Тада Давид дође у Нов к Ахимелеху свештенику; а Ахимелех се уплаши и истрча пред Давида, и рече му: Зашто си сам, и нема никога с тобом?
2 And David said to the priest, "The king has given me orders, and he instructed me, 'No one must know of the matter about which I send you, or about your orders; and I have arranged to meet the young men at a certain place.'
А Давид рече Ахимелеху свештенику: Цар ми нешто заповеди, и рече ми: Нико да не дозна зашто те шаљем и шта сам ти заповедио. А слуге сам оправио у то и то место.
3 Now, if there are five loaves of bread under your control, give them into my hand, or whatever there is."
Него шта имаш при руци? Дај ми пет хлебова, или шта имаш.
4 And the priest answered David, and said, "There is no common bread in my control, but there is holy bread. If the young men have kept themselves from women, they may eat of it."
А свештеник одговори Давиду и рече: Немам при руци обичног хлеба; него има светог хлеба; али јесу ли се момци чували од жена?
5 And David answered the priest, and said to him, "Truly women have been kept from us as always when I set out. All the young men are holy, even when it is an ordinary mission. So how much more today will their vessels be holy?"
А Давид одговори свештенику и рече му: Није било жена код нас ни јуче ни ономадне, откако сам пошао, и судови су у момака били свети. А ако би пут и нечист био, осветиће се данас судовима.
6 So the priest gave him what had been consecrated, for there was no bread there but the show bread, that had been removed before YHWH, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.
Тада му даде свештеник хлебове свете, јер не беше хлеба осим хлебова постављених, који беху узети испред Господа да се поставе хлебови топли онај дан кад се они узеше.
7 Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before YHWH; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the best of the herdsmen who belonged to Saul.
А онде беше онај дан један од слуга Саулових бавећи се пред Господом, коме име беше Доик Идумејац, старешина над пастирима Сауловим.
8 David said to Ahimelech, "Isn't there here under your control spear or sword? For I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."
И Давид рече Ахимелеху: Имаш ли ту какво копље или мач? Јер ни мача свог ни оружја не понесох, јер ствар царева беше хитна.
9 The priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, look, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind an ephod. If you will take that, take it; for there is no other except that here." David said, "There is none like that. Give it to me."
А свештеник рече: Овде је мач Голијата Филистејина, ког си убио у долини Или, увијен у платно иза оплећака; ако хоћеш, узми га, јер другог осим њега нема овде. А Давид рече: Таквог више нема, дај ми га.
10 David arose, and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
Потом се подиже Давид, и побеже онај дан од Саула, и дође к Ахису, цару гатском.
11 The servants of Achish said to him, "Isn't this David the king of the land? Did they not sing one to another about him in dances, saying, 'Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands?'"
А Ахису рекоше слуге његове: Није ли ово Давид, цар земаљски? Нису ли о њему певали играјући и говорећи: Саул згуби своју хиљаду, а Давид својих десет хиљада?
12 David laid up these words in his heart, and was very afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
И Давид метну ове речи у срце своје, и побоја се веома Ахиса, цара гатског.
13 He changed his behavior before them, and pretended to be mad in their hands, and drummed on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down his beard.
И претвори се пред њима и учини се луд у рукама њиховим; и шараше по вратима, и бацаше пену низ браду своју.
14 Then Achish said to his servants, "Look, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought him to me?
И Ахис рече слугама својим: Ето, видите да је човек луд; што сте ми га довели?
15 Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?"
Зар немам доста лудих, него ми доведосте тога да лудује преда мном? Зар ће тај ући у кућу моју?
