< 1 Samuel 18 >

1 And it was doon, whanne Dauid `hadde endid to speke to Saul, the soule of Jonathas was glued togidre to the soule of Dauid, and Jonathas louyde hym as his owne soule.
Kad je David završio razgovor sa Šaulom, Jonatanova se duša prikloni Davidovoj duši i Jonatan ga zavolje kao samoga sebe.
2 And Saul took Dauid in that dai, and grauntide not `to hym, `that he schulde turne ayen in to `the hows of his fadir.
Šaul zadrža Davida onoga istog dana kod sebe i nije mu dao da se vrati kući svoga oca.
3 Forsothe Jonathas and Dauid maden boond of pees, `that is, swerynge euerlastynge frenschip; for Jonathas louyde Dauid as his owne soule;
I Jonatan sklopi savez s Davidom jer ga je ljubio kao samoga sebe.
4 for whi Jonathas dispuylide him silf fro the coote `in which he was clothid, and yaf it to Dauid, and hise othere clothis, `til to his swerd and bouwe, and `til to the girdil.
I skide Jonatan plašt koji je imao na sebi i dade ga Davidu; tako i svoju odoru, čak i svoj mač, svoj luk i svoj pojas.
5 Also Dauid yede out to alle thingis, to what euer thingis Saul `hadde sent hym, and he gouernede hym silf prudentli; and Saul settide hym ouer the men of batel, and `he was acceptid, `ether plesaunt, in the iyen of al the puple, and moost in the siyt of `the seruauntis of Saul.
Na svim svojim pohodima, kamo ga je god slao Šaul, David bijaše sretne ruke i Šaul ga postavi na čelo svojim ratnicima; omilje on svemu narodu, pa i Šaulovim dvoranima.
6 Forsothe whanne Dauid turnede ayen, whanne `the Filistei was slayn, and bar the heed of `the Filistei in to Jerusalem, wymmen yeden out of alle the citees of Israel, and sungen, and ledden queris, ayens the comyng of king Saul, in tympans of gladnesse, and in trumpis.
Za njihova povratka, kad se David vraćao ubivši Filistejca, izađoše žene iz svih gradova Izraelovih u susret kralju Šaulu veselo kličući, pjevajući i plešući uza zvuke bubnjeva i cimbala.
7 And the wymmen sungen, pleiynge, and seiynge, Saul smoot a thousynde, and Dauid smoot ten thousynde.
Žene su plešući pjevale: “Pobi Šaul svoje tisuće, David na desetke tisuća.”
8 Saul was wrooth greetli, and this word displeside `in his iyen; and he seide, Thei yauen ten thousynde to Dauid, and `thei yauen a thousynde to me; what leeueth to hym, no but the rewme aloone?
Šaul se vrlo ražestio, nije mu bila draga ta pjesma. Zato reče: “Davidu su dale desetke tisuća, a meni samo tisuće! Još mu samo treba kraljevstvo!”
9 Therfor Saul bihelde Dauid not with `riytful iyen, `fro that dai and afterward.
I od toga dana Šaul poprijeko gledaše Davida.
10 Sotheli aftir the tother dai a wickid spirit of God asailide Saul, and he propheciede in the myddis of his hows.
Sutradan zao duh Božji napade Šaula, tako da je bjesnio po kući. David je rukom udarao u harfu kao drugih dana, a Šaul je u ruci imao koplje.
11 Forsothe Dauid harpide with his hond, as bi alle daies; and Saul helde a spere, and caste it, and gesside that he myyte prene Dauid with the wal, that is, perse with the spere, so that it schulde passe til to the wal; and Dauid bowide `fro his face the secounde tyme.
I Šaul baci koplje govoreći u sebi: “Sad ću pribiti Davida uza zid!” Ali mu se David izmače dva puta.
12 And Saul dredde Dauid, for the Lord was with hym, and hadde go awei fro him silf.
Šaul se poče bojati Davida, jer je Jahve bio s njim a od Šaula je odstupio.
13 Therfor Saul remouide Dauid fro hym silf, and made hym tribune on a thousynde men; and Dauid yede out and entride in `the siyt of the puple.
Zato ga Šaul ukloni iz svoje blizine i postavi ga za tisućnika: on je izlazio i vraćao se na čelu naroda.
14 And Dauid dide warli in alle hise weies, and the Lord was with hym;
David je imao uspjeha na svim svojim putovima jer Jahve bijaše s njim.
15 and so Saul siy that Dauid was ful prudent, and he bigan to be war of Dauid.
Kad je Šaul vidio da David ima mnogo uspjeha, obuze ga strah od njega.
16 Forsothe al Israel and Juda louyden Dauid; for he entride and yede out bifor hem.
Ali svemu Izraelu i Judi omilje David jer ih je on vodio na svim njihovim putovima.
17 And Saul seide to Dauid, Lo! `my more douytir Merob, Y schal yiue her wijf to thee; oneli be thou a strong man, and fiyte thou the `batels of the Lord. Forsothe Saul `arettide, and seide, Myn hond be not in hym, but the hond of Filisteis be on hym.
Šaul reče Davidu: “Evo svoju najstariju kćer Merabu dat ću ti za ženu, samo mi budi hrabar i vodi Jahvine bojeve!” Mišljaše Šaul: “Neću da padne od moje ruke, nego filistejska ruka neka se digne na njega!”
18 Sotheli Dauid seide to Saul, Who am Y, ether what is my lijf, ether the meynee of my fadir in Israel, that Y be maad the `sone in lawe of the kyng?
A David odgovori: “Tko sam ja i što znači moj život, što li kuća oca mojega u Izraelu da budem kraljev zet?”
19 Forsothe the tyme `was maad whanne Merob, the douyter of Saul, `ouyte to be youun to Dauid, sche was youun wijf to Hadriel Molatite.
I kad dođe vrijeme da Šaulova kći Meraba pođe za Davida, dadoše je za ženu Adrielu iz Mehole.
20 Forsothe Dauid louide Mychol, the douytir of Saul; and it was teld to Saul, and it pleside hym.
Ali je Davida ljubila Šaulova kći Mikala; kad su to javili Šaulu, bilo mu je pravo.
21 And Saul seide, Y schal yyue hir to hym, that it be to hym in to sclaundir, and the hond of Filisteis be on hym. Therfor Saul seide to Dauid, In `twei douytris thou schalt be my sone in lawe to dai.
Reče on u sebi: “Dat ću mu je, ali će mu ona biti zamka i ruka filistejska dići će se na njega.” (Šaul je po drugi put rekao Davidu: “Danas ćeš mi biti zet.”)
22 And Saul comaundide to hise seruauntis, Speke ye to Dauid, while it `is hid fro me, and seie ye, Lo! thou plesist the king, and alle hise seruauntis louen thee; now therfor be thou hosebonde of the `douytir of the kyng.
Tada Šaul zapovjedi svojim slugama ovako: “Razgovarajte se s Davidom tajno i recite mu: 'Gle, omilio si kralju i svi te njegovi dvorani vole; zato budi kraljev zet.'”
23 And the seruauntis of Saul spaken alle these wordis in the eeris of Dauid. And Dauid seide, Whether it semeth litil to you `to be sone in lawe of the kyng? Forsothe Y am a pore man, and a feble.
I Šaulove sluge ponoviše te riječi Davidu, ali im David odgovori: “Zar je u vašim očima malenkost postati kraljev zet? Ja sam samo siromah i mali čovjek!”
24 And the seruauntis telden to Saul, and seiden, Dauid spak siche wordis.
Šaulove sluge dojaviše to Šaulu govoreći: “Evo riječi što ih je rekao David.”
25 Sotheli Saul seide, Thus speke ye to Dauid, The kyng hath no nede to yiftis for spowsails, no but onely to an hundrid prepucies, `that is, mennus yerdis vncircumcidid, `of Filisteis, that veniaunce be maad of the kyngis enemyes. Certis Saul thouyte to bitake Dauid in to the hondis of Filisteis.
A Šaul odgovori: “Ovako recite Davidu: 'Kralj ne traži nikakva ženidbenog dara nego samo sto filistejskih obrezaka da se osveti kraljevim neprijateljima.'” Šaul mišljaše da će tako Davida gurnuti u ruke Filistejcima.
26 And whanne the seruauntis of Saul hadden teld to Dauid the wordis, whiche Saul hadde seid, the word pleside `in the iyen of Dauid, that he schulde be maad the kyngis son in lawe.
Šaulove sluge dojaviše te riječi Davidu, a njemu bijaše po volji da postane kraljev zet. Još prije nego što je isteklo vrijeme,
27 And aftir a fewe daies Dauid roos, and yede in to Acharon, with the men that weren with hym, and he killide of Filisteis twei hundrid men; and brouyte `the prepucies of hem, and noumbride tho to the kyng, that he schulde be the kyngis sone in lawe. And so Saul yaf Mycol, his douyter, wiif to hym.
spremi se David i krenu sa svojim ljudima te ubi Filistejcima dvije stotine ljudi; i donese njihove obreske i predade ih kralju na broj da bi postao njegov zet. Tada mu Šaul dade svoju kćer Mikalu za ženu.
28 And Saul siy, and vndirstood, that the Lord was with Dauid.
Šaul je jasno vidio da je Jahve s Davidom i da ga ljubi sav dom Izraelov.
29 Forsothe Mychol, `the douyter of Saul, louide Dauid, and Saul bigan more to drede Dauid; and Saul was maad enemye to Dauid in alle daies.
I Šaul se još većma poboja Davida i posta neprijatelj Davidu zauvijek.
30 And the princes of Filisteis yeden out; forsothe fro the bigynnyng of her goyng out Dauyd bar hym silf more warli than alle the men of Saul; and the name of Dauid was maad ful solempne.
A filistejski su knezovi izlazili u boj, ali koliko su god puta izlazili, David je imao više uspjeha nego svi Šaulovi dvorani; i tako ime njegovo posta vrlo slavno.
