< 2 Samuel 24 >
1 And the strong veniaunce of the Lord addide to be wrooth ayens Israel, and he stiride in hem Dauid, seiynge to Joab, Go thou, and noumbre thou Israel and Juda.
Još je jednom srdžba Jahvina planula na Izraelce te potakla Davida protiv njih govoreći: “Idi, izbroj Izraelce i Judejce!”
2 And the kyng seide to Joab, the prince of his oost, Go thou bi alle lynagis of Israel fro Dan `til to Bersabee, and noumbre thou the puple, that Y wite the noumbre therof.
I kralj zapovjedi Joabu i vojvodama koji bijahu s njim: “Obiđite sva Izraelova plemena od Dana do Beer Šebe i popišite narod da znam koliko ima naroda.”
3 And Joab seide to the kyng, Thi Lord God encresse to this puple, `hou greet it is now, and eft multiplie he an hundrid fold in the siyt of my lord the kyng; but what wole my lord the kyng to hym silf in sich a thing?
Joab odgovori kralju: “Neka Jahve, tvoj Bog, dade svome narodu još sto puta ovoliko koliko ga je sada i neka to još vidi svojim očima moj gospodar kralj, ali zašto moj gospodar kralj ima takvu želju?”
4 Sotheli the word of the kyng ouer cam the wordis of Joab, and of the princes of the oost; and Joab yede out, and the princes of the knyytis, fro the face of the kyng, that thei schulden noumbre the puple of Israel.
Ali kraljeva riječ bijaše jača od Joabove i od riječi vojvoda njegove vojske. Tako Joab i vojvode odoše ispred kralja da popišu izraelski narod.
5 And whanne thei hadden passid Jordan, thei camen in to Aroer, to the riyt side of the citee which is in the valei of Gad;
Prijeđoše oni preko Jordana i počeše kod Aroera i kod grada što leži usred doline i krenuše odande prema Gaditima i prema Jazeru.
6 and thei passiden bi Jazer in to Galaad, and in to the lowere lond of Odsi, and camen in to the wodi places of Dan; and thei cumpassiden bisidis Sidon,
Potom dođoše u Gilead i u zemlju Hetita, u Kadeš; zatim stigoše u Dan, a iz Dana skrenuše prema Sidonu.
7 and passiden nyy the wallis of Tire, and nyy al the lond of Euei, and of Chananei; and thei camen to the south of Juda, in Bersabee.
Zatim dođoše do tvrđave Tira i u sve gradove Hivijaca i Kanaanaca i završiše svoj put u Negebu Judinu, u Beer Šebi.
8 And whanne al the lond was cumpassid, thei camen aftir nyne monethis and twenti daies in to Jerusalem.
Prošavši svu zemlju, vratiše se poslije devet mjeseci i dvadeset dana u Jeruzalem.
9 Therfor Joab yaf the noumbre of discriuyng of the puple to the kyng. And of Israel weren foundun nyne hundryd thousynd of stronge men, that drewen out swerd; and of Juda fyue hundrid thousynde of fiyteris.
Joab dade kralju popis naroda: Izraelaca bijaše osam stotina tisuća ratnika vičnih maču, a Judejaca pet stotina tisuća ljudi.
10 Forsothe the herte of Dauid smoot hym, `that is, his concience repreuyde hym, aftir that the puple was noumbrid; and Dauid seide to the Lord, Y synnede greetli in this dede; but, Lord, Y preye that thou turne awei the wickidnesse of thi seruaunt, for Y dide ful folili.
Poslije toga Davida zapeče savjest što je dao brojiti narod pa reče Jahvi: “Veoma sam sagriješio što sam to učinio! Ali, Jahve, oprosti tu krivicu sluzi svome, jer sam vrlo ludo radio.”
11 Therfor Dauid roos eerli, and the word of the Lord was maad to Gad, the prophete and seere, and seide, Go thou,
Kad je David ujutro ustao, već je Jahvina riječ bila došla proroku Gadu, Davidovu vidiocu:
12 and speke to Dauid, The Lord seith these thingis, The chesyng of thre thingis is youun to thee; chese thou oon, which thou wolt of these, that Y do to thee.
“Idi i kaži Davidu: Ovako govori Jahve: 'Troje stavljam preda te, izaberi jedno od toga da ti učinim!'”
13 And whanne Gad hadde come to Dauid, he telde to Dauid, and seide, Ether hungur schal come to thee in thi lond seuene yeer; ethir thre monethis thou schalt fle thin aduersaries, and thei schulen pursue thee; ether certis thre daies pestilence schal be in thi lond; now therfor delyuere thou, `ether auyse thou, and se, what word Y schal answere to hym that sente me.
Gad tako dođe Davidu i javi mu ovo: “Hoćeš li da dođu tri gladne godine na tvoju zemlju, ili da tri mjeseca bježiš pred svojim neprijateljem koji će te goniti, ili da bude tri dana kuga u tvojoj zemlji? Sada promisli i gledaj što da odgovorim onome koji me poslao!”
14 Forsothe Dauid seide to Gad, Y am constreyned on ech side greetli; but it is betere that Y falle in to the hondis of the Lord, for his emercies ben manye, than in the hondis of men.
David odgovori Gadu: “Na velikoj sam muci! Ali neka padnemo u ruke Jahvine, jer je veliko njegovo milosrđe, a u ljudske ruke neka ne zapadnem!”
15 And the Lord sente pestilence in to Israel fro the morewtid `til to the tyme ordeyned; and seuenti thousynde of men weren deed of the puple fro Dan `til to Bersabee.
David, dakle, izabra kugu. Bilo je upravo vrijeme pšenične žetve. Jahve pusti kugu na Izraela od jutra pa do određenoga vremena; i pomor udari na narod i pomrije sedamdeset tisuća ljudi od Dana do Beer Šebe.
16 And whanne the aungel of the Lord hadde holde forth his hond ouer Jerusalem, that he schulde distrie it, the Lord hadde mercy on the turmentyng; and seide to the aungel smytynge the puple, It sufficith now; withholde thin hond. Forsothe the aungel of the Lord was bisidis the corn floor of Areuna Jebusey.
Kad je anđeo pružio svoju ruku na Jeruzalem da ga uništi, sažali se Jahvi zbog toga zla, pa reče anđelu koji je ubijao narod: “Dosta je sada! Povuci svoju ruku!” A Jahvin je anđeo bio upravo kod gumna Araune Jebusejca.
17 And Dauid seide to the Lord, whanne he hadde seyn the aungel sleynge the puple, Y am he that `haue synned, and Y dide wickidli; what han these do, that ben scheep? Y biseche, thin hond be turned ayens me, and ayens the hows of my fadir.
Kad David vidje anđela koji je ubijao narod, zavapi Jahvi: “Evo, ja sam sagriješio, ja sam učinio zlo! A oni, ovce, što su skrivili? Neka tvoja ruka padne na mene i na moju obitelj!”
18 Forsothe Gad, the prophete, cam to Dauid in that dai, and seide to hym, Stie thou, and ordeyne an auter to the Lord in the corn floor of Areuna Jebusei.
Istoga dana dođe Gad k Davidu i reče mu: “Idi i podigni Jahvi žrtvenik na gumnu Araune Jebusejca!”
19 And Dauid stiede, vpe the word of Gad, which the Lord hadde comaundid to hym.
I ode David po Gadovoj riječi, kako mu je zapovjedio Jahve.
20 And Areuna bihelde, and perseyuede, that the kyng and hise seruauntis passiden to hym;
Kad Arauna pogleda, opazi kralja i njegove dvorane gdje idu prema njemu. Arauna iziđe i pokloni se kralju licem do zemlje.
21 and he yede out, and worschipide the kyng bi low cheer to the erthe; and seide, What `cause is, that my lord the kyng cometh to his seruaunt? To whom Dauid seide, That Y bie of thee the corn floor, and bilde an auter to the Lord, and the sleynge ceesse, which is cruel in the puple.
Arauna upita: “Zašto je moj gospodar kralj došao svome sluzi?” A David odgovori: “Da kupi od tebe ovo gumno, da sagradi žrtvenik Jahvi, kako bi prestao pomor u narodu.”
22 And Areuna seide to Dauid, My lord the kyng take, and offre, as it plesith hym; thou hast oxis in to brent sacrifice, and a wayn and yockis of oxis in to vss of wode.
Arauna reče Davidu: “Neka ga uzme moj gospodar kralj i neka žrtvuje ono što je u njegovim očima dobro! Evo goveda za paljenicu, mlatilice, i volujske opreme za drvo!
23 Areuna yaf alle thingis to the king. And Areuna seide to the king, Thi Lord God reseyue thi vow.
Sve to sluga moga gospodara kralja poklanja kralju!” Još reče Arauna kralju: “Jahve, Bog tvoj, neka ti bude milostiv!”
24 To whom the king answeride, and seide, Not as thou wolt, but Y schal bie of thee for prijs, and Y schal not offre to `my Lord God brent sacrifices youun freli. Therfor Dauid bouyte the corn floor, and `he bouyte oxis for fifti siclis of siluer.
Ali kralj odgovori Arauni: “Ne, nego hoću da kupim od tebe i da platim; neću prinositi Jahvi, svome Bogu, paljenica koje su mi poklonjene.” I tako David kupi ono gumno i goveda za pedeset srebrnih šekela.
25 And Dauid bildide there an auter to the Lord, and offride brent sacrifices and pesible sacrifices; and the Lord dide merci to the lond, and the veniaunce was refreyned fro Israel.
Ondje David sagradi žrtvenik Jahvi i prinese paljenice i pričesnice. Tada se Jahve smilova zemlji i presta pomor u Izraelu.
