2 Samuel 13
1 David’s son Absalom had a beautiful sister named Tamar. Another of David’s sons, Amnon, was attracted to Tamar.
A potom se dogodi ovo: Davidov sin Abšalom imao je lijepu sestru po imenu Tamaru i u nju se zaljubio Davidov sin Amnon.
2 He wanted [to have sex with] [EUP] his half-sister very much, with the result that he made himself sick [thinking about her all the time]. But it was not possible for Amnon to get her, because she was a virgin, [so they kept men away from her].
Amnon se toliko mučio da se gotovo razbolio radi svoje sestre Tamare: jer ona bijaše djevica, pa Amnon nije vidio mogućnosti da joj učini bilo što.
3 But Amnon had a friend named Jonadab, who was the son of David’s brother Shimeah. Jonadab was a very crafty/shrewd man.
Ali imaše Amnon prijatelja po imenu Jonadaba, sina Davidova brata Šimeja; a Jonadab bijaše vrlo domišljat.
4 [One day] Jonadab said to Amnon, “You are the king’s son, but every day I see that [RHQ] you seem very depressed/sad. What is your problem?” Amnon replied, “I (am in love/want to sleep) [EUP] with Tamar, my half-brother Absalom’s sister.”
I upita on Amnona: “Odakle to, kraljev sine, da si svako jutro mlitav? Ne bi li mi kazao?” A Amnon mu odgovori: “Zaljubljen sam u Tamaru, sestru svoga brata Abšaloma.”
5 Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed, and pretend that you are sick. When your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Allow my half-sister Tamar to come and give me some food to eat. She can prepare the food while I am watching her. Then she can serve it to me herself.’”
A Jonadab mu reče: “Lezi u postelju i pričini se bolestan, pa kad dođe tvoj otac da te pohodi, ti mu reci: 'Dopusti da dođe moja sestra Tamara da mi dade jesti; ako ona pred mojim očima zgotovi jelo da to vidim, onda ću iz njezine ruke jesti.'”
6 So Amnon lay down, and pretended that he was sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, “[I am sick; ] please allow my half-sister Tamar to come and make a couple scones/dumplings for me while I am watching, and then she can serve them to me.”
Amnon, dakle, leže i pričini se bolestan. Kad je došao kralj da ga pohodi, reče Amnon kralju: “Dopusti da dođe moja sestra Tamara da pred mojim očima zgotovi koji kolač i ja ću se okrijepiti iz njezine ruke.”
7 So David sent a message to Tamar in the palace, saying “Amnon [is sick and he wants you to] go to his house and prepare some food for him.”
Tada David poruči Tamari u palaču: “Idi u kuću svoga brata Amnona i priredi mu jelo!”
8 So Tamar went to Amnon’s house, where he was lying in bed. She took some dough and kneaded it, and formed it into some scones/dumplings while he was watching her. Then she baked them.
Tamara ode u kuću svoga brata Amnona. A on ležaše. Uze ona brašna, umijesi ga, načini kolače pred njegovim očima te ih ispeče.
9 She took them out of the pan and put them [on a plate] in front of him, but he refused to eat them. Then he said to everyone else in the room, “All the rest of you, leave me now!” So all the others left his [room].
Potom uze tavu i istrese je preda nj, ali Amnon ne htjede jesti nego reče: “Otpremite sve odavde!” I svi iziđoše od njega.
10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into my room and serve it to me.” So Tamar took into his room the scones/dumplings that she had made.
Tada Amnon reče Tamari: “Donesi mi jelo u spavaonicu da se okrijepim iz tvoje ruke!” I Tamara uze kolače koje bijaše zgotovila i donese ih svome bratu Amnonu u spavaonicu.
11 But when she brought them close for him to eat them, he grabbed her and said to her, “Come to bed with me!”
A kad mu je pružila da jede, on je uhvati rukom i reče joj: “Dođi, sestro moja, lezi sa mnom!”
12 She replied, “No, do not force me to do such a disgraceful thing! We never do things like that in Israel! That would be awful/terrible!
A ona mu reče: “Nemoj, brate moj! Ne sramoti me jer se tako ne radi u Izraelu. Ne čini takve sramote!
13 As for me, if I did that, I would not be able to [RHQ] endure being disgraced by having done that. And as for you, everyone in Israel would condemn you for having done such a disgraceful deed. So I plead with you, talk to the king. I am sure that he will allow me to marry you.”
Kuda bih ja sa svojom sramotom? A i ti bi bio kao bestidnik u Izraelu! Nego govori s kraljem: on me neće uskratiti tebi!”
14 But he would not listen to her. He was stronger than she was, so he forced her to have sex with him.
Ali je on ne htjede poslušati, nego je svlada i leže s njom.
15 Then Amnon hated her very much. He hated her much more than he had desired her. He said to her, “Get up and get out of here!”
Nato je odmah zamrzi silnom mržnjom te je mržnja kojom ju je zamrzio bila veća od ljubavi kojom ju je prije ljubio. I reče joj Amnon: “Ustani! Odlazi!”
16 But she said to him, “No! It would be very wrong for you to send me away. It would be worse than what you just did to me!” But he would not listen to her.
A ona mu odvrati: “Ne, brate moj! Ako me sad otjeraš, bit će to veće zlo od onoga koje si mi učinio!” Ali je on ne htjede slušati,
17 He summoned his personal servant and said to him, “Take this woman outside, away from me, and lock the door [so that she cannot come in again]!”
nego dozva momka koji ga je služio i zapovjedi mu: “Otjeraj ovu od mene, izbaci je i zaključaj vrata za njom!”
18 So the servant put her outside and locked the door. Tamar was wearing a long robe with long sleeves, which was the clothing that was usually worn by the unmarried daughters of the king at that time.
(A ona je imala na sebi haljinu s dugim rukavima, jer su se nekoć u takve haljine oblačile kraljeve kćeri dok su bile djevojke.) Sluga je izvede van i zaključa vrata za njom.
19 But Tamar tore the long robe that she was wearing, and put ashes on her head [to show that she was very sad]. Then she put her hands on her head [to show that she was grieving], and she went away, crying.
Tada Tamara uze prašine i posu se njom po glavi, razdrije haljinu s dugim rukavima koju je imala na sebi, stavi ruku na glavu i ode vičući glasno dok je išla.
20 Her brother Absalom [saw her and] said to her, “Has your half-brother Amnon [DOU] forced you to have sex with him [EUP]? Please, my sister, do not tell anyone, and do not become depressed/sad.” So Tamar went to live in Absalom’s house, and she was very sad and lonely.
A njezin je brat Abšalom upita: “Je li možda tvoj brat Amnon bio s tobom? Ali sada, sestro moja, šuti: brat ti je! Ne uzimaj to k srcu!” Tako je Tamara ostala osamljena u kući svoga brata Abšaloma.
21 When King David heard about all that, he became very angry.
Kad je kralj David čuo sve što se dogodilo, vrlo se razgnjevi, ali ne htjede žalostiti svoga sina Amnona, koga je ljubio jer mu bijaše prvorođenac.
22 And Absalom hated Amnon, because he had raped his sister, so he would not speak to Amnon about anything.
A Abšalom ne reče Amnonu ni riječi, ni zle ni dobre, jer je Abšalom zamrzio Amnona što mu osramoti sestru Tamaru.
23 Two years later, Absalom’s servants were shearing sheep at Baal-Hazor, which is near [a town named] Ephraim. [When they finished shearing the sheep, they celebrated], and Absalom invited all the king’s sons [to come and celebrate].
A poslije dvije godine imao je Abšalom striženje ovaca u Baal Hasoru kod Efrajima; i Abšalom pozva svu kraljevu obitelj.
24 Absalom went to the king and said to him, “Sir, my servants have been shearing my sheep. Please come with your officials [to celebrate] with us!”
Abšalom dođe kralju i reče mu: “Evo, tvoj sluga ima striženje ovaca, pa neka se kralj i njegovi dvorani udostoje doći svome sluzi.”
25 But the king replied, “No, my son, it would not be good for all of us to go, because it would cause you to do a lot of work and spend a lot of money for food.” Absalom continued urging him, but the king would not go. Instead, he said that he hoped/desired that God would bless them [while they celebrated].
Ali kralj odgovori Abšalomu: “Ne, sine, nećemo doći svi, da ti ne budemo na teret.” Abšalom ustraja, ali kralj ne htjede ići, nego ga blagoslovi i otpusti.
26 Then Absalom said, “If you will not go, please allow my half-brother Amnon to go with us.” But the king replied, “Why [do you want] him to go with you?”
Ali Abšalom nastavi: “Ako ti nećeš, dopusti da bar moj brat Amnon pođe s nama.” A kralj ga upita: “Zašto da ide s tobom?”
27 But Absalom continued to insist, so finally the king permitted Amnon and all David’s other sons to go with Absalom.
Ali je Abšalom i dalje navaljivao te David naposljetku pusti s njim Amnona i sve kraljeve sinove. Abšalom priredi kraljevsku gozbu
28 [So they all went. And at the celebration], Absalom commanded his servants, “Notice when Amnon has become a bit drunk from the wine. Then when I signal to you, kill him. Do not be afraid; you will be doing this [only] because I told you [RHQ] to do it. So be courageous and do it!”
i zapovjedi svojim slugama ovako: “Pazite! Kad se Amnonu razveseli srce od vina i ja vam viknem: 'Ubijte Amnona!' tada ga pogubite! Ne bojte se, jer vam tako zapovijedam! Ohrabrite se i pokažite se junaci!”
29 So Absalom’s servants did what Absalom told them to do. [They killed Amnon]. All the rest of David’s sons [saw what happened and] fled, riding on their mules.
I Abšalomove sluge učiniše s Amnonom kako im zapovjedi Abšalom. Tada skočiše svi kraljevi sinovi, pojahaše svaki svoju mazgu i pobjegoše.
30 While they were on their way home, someone [went quickly and] reported to David, “Absalom has killed all of your other sons; none of them is still alive!”
Dok su oni još bili na putu, dođe ovakva vijest Davidu: “Abšalom je pobio sve kraljeve sinove, nije ostao od njih ni jedan jedini.”
31 The king stood up, tore his clothes [because he was extremely sad], and then he threw himself down on the ground. All the servants who were there also tore their clothes.
Kralj ustade, razdrije svoje haljine i baci se na zemlju; i svi njegovi dvorani koji stajahu oko njega razdriješe svoje haljine.
32 But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “Your Majesty, [I am sure that] they have not killed all your sons. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead, because Absalom has determined to do this ever since the day that Amnon raped [EUP] his half-sister Tamar.
Ali Jonadab, sin Davidova brata Šimeja, progovori ovako: “Neka ne govori moj gospodar da su pobili sve mladiće, kraljeve sinove, jer je poginuo samo Amnon: na Abšalomovu licu mogla se predviđati nesreća od onoga dana kad je Amnon osramotio njegovu sestru Tamaru.
33 So, your majesty, do not believe the report that all your sons are dead. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead.”
Zato neka sada moj gospodar i kralj ne misli u srcu da su svi kraljevi sinovi poginuli. Poginuo je samo Amnon,
34 In the meantime, Absalom ran away. Just then, the soldier/sentry [who was standing on the city wall] saw a large crowd of people coming down the hill along the road from Horonaim. [He ran and told the king what he had seen].
a Abšalom je pobjegao.” A momak koji bijaše na straži podiže oči i ugleda mnoštvo naroda gdje silazi cestom od Horonajima. Stražar dođe i javi kralju: “Vidio sam ljude gdje silaze cestom od Horonajima po gorskom obronku.”
35 Jonadab said to the king, “Aha! What I told you is true. Your other sons [are alive and] have come!”
Tada Jonadab reče kralju: “Evo stigoše kraljevi sinovi! Dogodilo se kako je rekao tvoj sluga.”
36 And as soon as he said that, David’s sons came in. They all started crying, and David and all his officials also cried very much.
Tek što je to izrekao, a to kraljevi sinovi uđoše i zaplakaše u sav glas; a i kralj i svi njegovi dvorani plakahu.
37 But Absalom had fled. He went to stay with the king of [the] Geshur [region], who was Talmai the son of Ammihud. Absalom stayed there for three years. David mourned for his son Amnon for a long time,
Abšalom pak bijaše pobjegao i otišao k Talmaju, sinu Amihudovu, gešurskom kralju. A David tugovaše za svojim sinom bez prestanka.
A pošto je Abšalom pobjegao i otišao u Gešur, ostao je ondje tri godine.
39 but after that, he desired very much to see Absalom, because he was no longer grieving about Amnon being dead.
Kralj David prestao se srditi na Abšaloma jer se utješio zbog smrti Amnonove.
