1 Kings 2

1 Now the days of David drew near that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,

A kad doðe vrijeme Davidu da umre, zapovjedi Solomunu sinu svojemu govoreæi:

2 I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man;

Ja idem kuda ide sve na zemlji; a ti budi hrabar i budi èovjek.

3 And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and wherever thou turnest thyself:

I drži što ti je Gospod Bog tvoj zapovjedio da držiš, hodeæi putovima njegovim i držeæi uredbe njegove i zapovijesti njegove i zakone njegove i svjedoèanstva njegova, kako je napisano u zakonu Mojsijevu, da bi napredovao u svemu što uzradiš i za èim se god okreneš,

4 That the LORD may continue his word which he spoke concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee ( said he) a man on the throne of Israel.

Da bi Gospod ispunio rijeè svoju koju mi je rekao govoreæi: ako uspaze sinovi tvoji na put svoj hodeæi preda mnom vjerno, svijem srcem svojim i svom dušom svojom, tada ti neæe nestati èovjeka na prijestolu Izrailjevu.

5 Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his belt that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.

A ti znaš šta mi je uèinio Joav sin Serujin, šta je uèinio dvjema vojvodama Izrailjevijem, Aveniru sinu Nirovu i Amasi sinu Jeterovu, koje ubi prolivši u miru krv kao u ratu, i okalja krvlju kao u ratu pojas svoj oko sebe, i obuæu svoju na nogu.

6 Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his gray head go down to the grave in peace. (Sheol h7585)

Uèini dakle po mudrosti svojoj, i nemoj dati da se sijeda glava njegova spusti s mirom u grob. (Sheol h7585)

7 But show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.

Sinovima pak Varzelaja od Galada uèini milost, i neka budu meðu onima koji jedu za tvojim stolom, jer su tako došli k meni kad sam bježao od Avesaloma brata tvojega.

8 And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I swore to him by the LORD, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.

I eto, kod tebe je Simej sin Girin od Venijamina iz Vaurima, koji me je ljuto ružio kad iðah u Mahanajim; ali mi doðe na susret na Jordan, i zakleh mu se Gospodom rekavši: neæu te ubiti maèem.

9 Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou art a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do to him; but his gray head do thou bring down to the grave with blood. (Sheol h7585)

Ali mu ti nemoj oprostiti, jer si mudar èovjek i znaæeš šta æeš mu uèiniti, da opraviš sijedu glavu njegovu s krvlju u grob. (Sheol h7585)

10 So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.

Tako poèinu David kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u gradu Davidovu.

11 And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

A carova David nad Izrailjem èetrdeset godina: u Hevronu carova sedam godina, a u Jerusalimu carova trideset i tri godine.

12 Then Solomon was seated upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.

I Solomun sjede na prijesto Davida oca svojega, i carstvo se njegovo utvrdi jako.

13 And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.

Tada doðe Adonija sin Agitin k Vitsaveji materi Solomunovoj; a ona reèe: jesi li dobro došao? A on reèe: dobro.

14 He said moreover, I have somewhat to say to thee. And she said, Say on.

Potom reèe: imam nešto da ti kažem. A ona reèe: govori.

15 And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: but the kingdom is turned about, and hath become my brother’s: for it was his from the LORD.

Tada reèe: ti znaš da je moje bilo carstvo, i da je u mene bio upro oèi sav Izrailj da ja budem car; ali se carstvo prenese i dopade bratu mojemu, jer mu ga Gospod dade.

16 And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said to him, Say on.

Zato te sada molim za jedno; nemoj me odbiti. A ona mu reèe: govori.

17 And he said, Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king, (for he will not say to thee no, ) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite for a wife.

A on reèe: govori caru Solomunu, jer ti on neæe odbiti, neka mi da za ženu Avisagu Sunamku.

18 And Bathsheba said, Well; I will speak for thee to the king.

A Vitsaveja reèe: dobro, ja æu govoriti caru za te.

19 Bathsheba therefore went to king Solomon, to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself to her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king’s mother; and she sat on his right hand.

I doðe Vitsaveja k caru Solomunu da mu govori za Adoniju; a car usta i srete je i pokloniv joj se sjede na svoj prijesto, i zapovjedi te namjestiše stolicu materi njegovoj, i ona sjede njemu s desne strane.

20 Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee, deny me not. And the king said to her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not deny thee.

Tada ona reèe: iskala bih od tebe jednu malu stvar, nemoj me odbiti. A car joj reèe: išti, majko, neæu te odbiti.

21 And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother for a wife.

Ona reèe: podaj Avisagu Sunamku Adoniji bratu svojemu za ženu.

22 And king Solomon answered and said to his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is my elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.

A car Solomun odgovori materi svojoj i reèe: zašto išteš Avisagu Sunamku za Adoniju? išti i carstvo za nj, jer je on brat moj stariji i ima uza se Avijatara sveštenika i Joava sina Serujina.

23 Then king Solomon swore by the LORD, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah hath not spoken this word against his own life.

I zakle se car Solomun Gospodom govoreæi: tako da mi uèini Bog i tako da doda, sebi na smrt kaza to Adonija danas.

24 Now therefore, as the LORD liveth, who hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.

I zato, tako da je živ Gospod, koji me je utvrdio i posadio me na prijestolu Davida oca mojega, i koji mi je naèinio kuæu kao što je rekao, danas æe poginuti Adonija.

25 And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.

I posla car Solomun Venaju sina Jodajeva, koji uloži na nj, te pogibe.

26 And to Abiathar the priest said the king, Depart to Anathoth, to thy own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou didst bear the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all in which my father was afflicted.

A Avijataru svešteniku reèe car: idi u Anatot na njivu svoju, jer si zaslužio smrt, ali te neæu danas pogubiti, jer si nosio kovèeg Gospodnji pred Davidom ocem mojim i podnosio si sve nevolje koje je podnosio otac moj.

27 So Solomon removed Abiathar from being priest to the LORD; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD, which he spoke concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.

Tako Solomun svrgne Avijatara da ne bude sveštenik Gospodnji, da ispuni rijeè Gospodnju što reèe u Silomu za dom Ilijev.

28 Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled to the tabernacle of the LORD, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.

I ovaj glas doðe do Joava; a Joav bješe pristao za Adonijom, premda za Avesalomom ne bješe pristao; i uteèe Joav u šator Gospodnji i uhvati se za rogove oltaru.

29 And it was told to king Solomon that Joab had fled to the tabernacle of the LORD; and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.

I javiše caru Solomunu: Joav uteèe u šator Gospodnji, i eno ga kod oltara. A Solomun posla Venaju sina Jodajeva govoreæi: idi, uloži na nj.

30 And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the LORD, and said to him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.

I ušav Venaja u šator Gospodnji reèe mu: car je kazao: izidi. A on reèe: neæu; nego ovdje hoæu da umrem. A Venaja javi caru govoreæi: tako reèe Joav i tako mi odgovori.

31 And the king said to him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.

A car mu reèe: uèini kako je rekao, uloži na nj, i pogrebi ga, i skini s mene i s doma oca mojega krv pravu koju je prolio Joav.

32 And the LORD shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing of it, that is, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.

I neka Gospod obrati krv njegovu na njegovu glavu, što uloži na dva èovjeka pravednija i bolja od sebe, i ubi ih maèem bez znanja oca mojega Davida: Avenira sina Nirova vojvodu Izrailjeva i Amasu sina Jeterova vojvodu Judina;

33 Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the LORD.

Neka se dakle krv njihova vrati na glavu Joavovu i na glavu sjemena njegova dovijeka; a Davidu i sjemenu njegovu i domu njegovu i prijestolu njegovu neka bude mir dovijeka od Gospoda.

34 So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.

I otide Venaja sin Jodajev, i uloži na nj i pogubi ga, i bi pogreben kod kuæe svoje u pustinji.

35 And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his stead over the army: and Zadok the priest the king put in the stead of Abiathar.

Tada postavi car Venaju sina Jodajeva na njegovo mjesto nad vojskom, a Sadoka sveštenika postavi car na mjesto Avijatarovo.

36 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth from there to any place whatever.

Potom posla car i dozva Simeja, i reèe mu: sagradi sebi kuæu u Jerusalimu, pa tu sjedi, i ne izlazi odatle nikuda.

37 For it shall be, that on the day thou shalt go out, and pass over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thy own head.

Jer u koji dan izideš i prijeðeš preko potoka Kedrona, znaj zacijelo da æeš poginuti, i krv æe tvoja pasti na tvoju glavu.

38 And Shimei said to the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.

A Simej reèe caru: dobra je ta rijeè; kako je rekao gospodar moj car, tako æe uèiniti sluga tvoj. I sjedje Simej u Jerusalimu dugo vremena.

39 And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away to Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants are in Gath.

Ali se dogodi poslije tri godine, te utekoše dvije sluge Simejeve k Ahisu sinu Mašinu caru Gatskom. I bi javljeno Simeju: eno ti slugu u Gatu.

40 And Shimei arose, and saddled his donkey, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.

Tada usta Simej, i osamari svoga magarca, i otide u Gat k Ahisu da traži sluge svoje. I vrati se Simej, i dovede natrag sluge svoje iz Gata.

41 And it was told to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and had returned.

I javiše Solomunu da je Simej bio otišao iz Jerusalima u Gat, i da se vratio.

42 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and protest to thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest any where abroad, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst to me, The word that I have heard is good.

Tada car poslav dozva Simeja, i reèe mu: nijesam li te zakleo Gospodom i nijesam li ti tvrdo rekao: u koji dan izideš kuda mu drago, znaj zacijelo da æeš poginuti? I ti mi reèe: dobra je ta rijeè koju èuh.

43 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?

Zašto dakle nijesi držao zakletve Gospodnje i zapovijesti koju sam ti zapovjedio?

44 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thy heart is aware of, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thy own head;

Potom reèe car Simeju: ti znaš sve zlo za koje zna srce tvoje, što si uèinio Davidu ocu mojemu; Gospod vraæa tvoje zlo na tvoju glavu.

45 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.

A car æe Solomun biti blagosloven i prijesto Davidov utvrðen pred Gospodom dovijeka.

46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; who went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.

I zapovjedi car Venaji sinu Jodajevu, te izide i uloži na nj, te pogibe. I carstvo se utvrdi u ruci Solomunovoj.
