< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Then Yahweh sent Nathan to David. He came to him and said, “There were once two men in a city. One man was rich and the other poor.
И посла Господ Натана к Давиду; и он дошав к њему рече му: У једном граду беху два човека, један богат а други сиромах.
2 The rich man had huge numbers of flocks and herds,
Богати имаше оваца и говеда врло много;
3 but the poor man had nothing except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and fed and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. The lamb even ate with him and drank from his own cup, and it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.
А сиромах немаше ништа до једну малу овчицу, коју беше купио, и храњаше је, те одрасте уза њ и уз децу његову, и јеђаше од његовог залогаја, и из његове чаше пијаше, и на крилу му спаваше, и беше му као кћи.
4 One day a visitor came to the rich man, but the rich man was unwilling to take an animal from his own flocks and herds to provide food for him. Instead he took the poor man's ewe lamb and cooked it for his visitor.”
А дође путник к богатом човеку, а њему би жао узети из својих оваца или говеда да зготови путнику који дође к њему; него узе овцу оног сиромаха, и зготови је човеку, који дође к њему.
5 David was hot with anger against the rich man, and he raged to Nathan, “As Yahweh lives, the man who has done this deserves to be put to death.
Тада се Давид врло разгневи на оног човека, и рече Натану: Тако жив био Господ, заслужио је смрт онај који је то учинио.
6 He must pay back the lamb four times over because he did such a thing, and because he had no pity on the poor man.”
И овцу нека плати учетворо, што је то учинио и није му жао било.
7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are that man! Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I rescued you out of the hand of Saul.
Тада рече Натан Давиду: Ти си тај. Овако вели Господ Бог Израиљев: Ја сам те помазао за цара над Израиљем, и ја сам те избавио из руку Саулових.
8 I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your arms. I also gave you the house of Israel and Judah. But if that had been too little, I would have given you many other things in addition.
И дао сам ти дом господара твог, и жене господара твог на крило твоје, дао сам ти дом Израиљев и Јудин; и ако је мало додао бих ти то и то.
9 So why have you despised the commands of Yahweh, so as to do what is evil in his sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and have taken his wife to be your own wife. You killed him with the sword of the army of Ammon.
Зашто си презрео реч Господњу чинећи шта Њему није по вољи? Урију Хетејина убио си мачем и узео си жену његову себи за жену, а њега си убио мачем синова Амонових.
10 So now the sword will never leave your house, because you have despised me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite as your wife.'
Зато неће се одмаћи мач од дома твог довека, што си ме презрео и узео жену Урије Хетејина да ти буде жена.
11 Yahweh says, 'Look, I will raise up disaster against you out of your own house. Before your own eyes, I will take your wives and give them to your neighbor, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight.
Овако вели Господ: Ево, ја ћу подигнути на те зло из дома твог, и узећу жене твоје на твоје очи, и даћу их ближњему твом, те ће спавати са женама твојим на видику свакоме.
12 For you committed your sin secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, in the sunlight.'”
Јер ти си учинио тајно, али ћу ја ово учинити пред свим Израиљем и сваком на видику.
13 Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan replied to David, “Yahweh also has passed over your sin. You will not be killed.
Тада рече Давид Натану: Сагреших Господу. А Натан рече Давиду: и Господ је пронео грех твој; нећеш умрети.
14 However, because by this act you have despised Yahweh, the child who is born to you will surely die.”
Али што си тим делом дао прилику непријатељима Господњим да хуле, зато ће ти умрети син који ти се родио.
15 Then Nathan left and went home. Yahweh attacked the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
Потом Натан отиде својој кући. А Господ удари дете које роди жена Уријина Давиду, те се разболе на смрт.
16 David then implored God for the boy. David fasted and went inside and lay all night on the floor.
И Давид се мољаше Богу за дете, и пошћаше се Давид, и дошавши лежаше преко ноћи на земљи.
17 The elders of his house arose and stood beside him, to raise him up from the floor, but he would not get up, and he would not eat with them.
И старешине дома његовог усташе око њега да га подигну са земље, али он не хте, нити једе шта с њима.
18 It came about on the seventh day that the child died. David's servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Look, while the child was still alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. What might he do to himself if we tell him that the boy is dead?!”
А кад би седми дан, умре дете; и не смеху слуге Давидове јавити му да је дете умрло, јер говораху: Ево, док дете беше живо, говорасмо му, па нас не хте послушати; а како ћемо му казати: Умрло је дете? Хоће га уцвелити.
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead. He said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They answered, “He is dead.”
А Давид видећи где слуге његове шапћу међу собом, досети се да је умрло дете; и рече Давид слугама својим: Је ли умрло дете? А они рекоше: Умрло је.
20 Then David arose from the floor and washed himself, anointed himself, and changed his clothes. He went to the tabernacle of Yahweh and worshiped there, and then he came back to his own palace. When he asked for it, they set food before him, and he ate.
Тада Давид уста са земље, и уми се, и намаза се и преобуче се; и отиде у дом Господњи, и поклони се. Потом опет дође кући својој, и заиска да му донесу да једе; и једе.
21 Then his servants said to him, “Why have you done this? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child died, you got up and ate.”
А слуге његове рекоше му: Шта то радиш? Док беше дете живо, постио си и плакао; а кад умре дете, устао си и једеш.
22 David answered, “While the child was still alive I fasted and wept. I said, 'Who knows whether or not Yahweh will be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
А он рече: Док дете беше живо, постио сам и плакао, јер говорах: ко зна, може се смиловати Господ на ме да дете остане живо.
23 But now he is dead, so why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
А сад умрло је; што бих постио? Могу ли га повратити? Ја ћу отићи к њему, али он неће се вратити к мени.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and slept with her. Later she gave birth to a son, and the child was named Solomon. Yahweh loved him
Потом Давид утеши Витсавеју жену своју, и отиде к њој, и леже с њом. И она роди сина, коме наде име Соломун. И мио беше Господу.
25 and he sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah, because Yahweh loved him.
И посла Натана пророка, те му наде име Једидија, ради Господа.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and he captured the royal city.
А Јоав бијући Раву синова Амонових, узе царски град.
27 So Joab sent messengers to David and said, “I have fought against Rabbah, and I have taken the city's water supply.
И посла посланике к Давиду, и рече: Бих Раву, и узех град на води.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the army together and camp against the city and take it, because if I take the city, it will be named after me.”
Него сада скупи остали народ, и стани у логор према граду, и узми га, да га не бих ја узео и моје се име спомињало на њему.
29 So David gathered all the army together and went to Rabbah; he fought against the city and captured it.
И Давид скупивши сав народ отиде на Раву, и удари на њу, и узе је.
30 David took the crown from their king's head—it weighed a talent of gold, and there was a precious stone in it. The crown was placed on David's own head. Then he brought out the plunder of the city in large quantities.
И узе цару њиховом с главе круну, у којој беше таланат злата, с драгим камењем, и метнуше је на главу Давиду, и однесе из града плен врло велик.
31 He brought out the people who were in the city and forced them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes; he also made them work at brick kilns. David required all the cities of the people of Ammon to do this labor. Then David and all the army returned to Jerusalem.
А народ који беше у њему изведе и метну их под пиле и под бране гвоздене и под секире гвоздене, и сагна их у пећи где се опеке пеку. И тако учини свим градовима синова Амонових. Потом се врати Давид са свим народом у Јерусалим.
