1 Samuel 7

1 And the men of Kirjath-Jearim come and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and bring it in unto the house of Abinadab, in the height, and Eleazar his son they have sanctified to keep the ark of Jehovah.

Tada doðoše ljudi iz Kirijat-Jarima, i uzeše kovèeg Gospodnji, i odnesoše ga u kuæu Avinadavovu na brdu, a Eleazara sina njegova posvetiše da èuva kovèeg Gospodnji.

2 And it cometh to pass, from the day of the dwelling of the ark in Kirjath-Jearim, that the days are multiplied — yea, they are twenty years — and wail do all the house of Israel after Jehovah.

A kad kovèeg osta u Kirijat-Jarimu, proðe mnogo vremena, dvadeset godina, i plakaše sav dom Izrailjev za Gospodom.

3 And Samuel speaketh unto all the house of Israel, saying, 'If with all your heart ye are turning back unto Jehovah — turn aside the gods of the stranger from your midst, and Ashtaroth; and prepare your heart unto Jehovah, and serve Him only, and He doth deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.'

A Samuilo reèe svemu domu Izrailjevu govoreæi: ako se svijem srcem svojim obraæate ka Gospodu, povrzite tuðe bogove izmeðu sebe i Astarote, i spremite srce svoje za Gospoda, njemu jedinomu služite, pa æe vas izbaviti iz ruku Filistejskih.

4 And the sons of Israel turn aside the Baalim and Ashtaroth, and serve Jehovah alone;

I povrgoše sinovi Izrailjevi Vale i Astarote, i služiše Gospodu jedinomu.

5 and Samuel saith, 'Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I pray for you unto Jehovah.'

Potom reèe Samuilo: skupite svega Izrailja u Mispu, da se pomolim Gospodu za vas.

6 And they are gathered to Mizpeh, and draw water, and pour out before Jehovah, and fast on that day, and say there, 'We have sinned against Jehovah;' and Samuel judgeth the sons of Israel in Mizpeh.

I skupiše se u Mispu, i crpuæi vodu proljevaše pred Gospodom, i postiše onaj dan, i ondje rekoše: sagriješismo Gospodu. I Samuilo suðaše sinovima Izrailjevijem u Mispi.

7 And the Philistines hear that the sons of Israel have gathered themselves to Mizpeh; and the princes of the Philistines go up against Israel, and the sons of Israel hear, and are afraid of the presence of the Philistines.

A Filisteji kad èuše da su se sinovi Izrailjevi skupili u Mispu, izidoše knezovi Filistejski na Izrailja. A kad to èuše sinovi Izrailjevi, uplašiše se od Filisteja.

8 And the sons of Israel say unto Samuel, 'Keep not silent for us from crying unto Jehovah our God, and He doth save us out of the hand of the Philistines.'

I rekoše sinovi Izrailjevi Samuilu: ne prestaj vapiti za nas ka Gospodu Bogu našemu, eda bi nas izbavio iz ruku Filistejskih.

9 And Samuel taketh a fat lamb, and causeth it to go up — a burnt-offering whole to Jehovah; and Samuel crieth unto Jehovah for Israel, and Jehovah answereth him;

Tada Samuilo uze jedno jagnje odojèe, i prinese ga svega Gospodu na žrtvu paljenicu; i vapi Samuilo ka Gospodu za Izrailja, i usliši ga Gospod.

10 and Samuel is causing the burnt-offering to go up — and the Philistines have drawn nigh to battle against Israel — and Jehovah doth thunder with a great noise, on that day, upon the Philistines, and troubleth them, and they are smitten before Israel.

I kad Samuilo prinošaše žrtvu paljenicu, približiše se Filisteji da udare na Izrailja; ali zagrmje Gospod grmljavinom velikom u onaj dan na Filisteje i smete ih, i biše pobijeni pred Izrailjem.

11 And the men of Israel go out from Mizpeh, and pursue the Philistines, and smite them unto the place of Beth-Car.

A Izrailjci izidoše iz Mispe, i potjeraše Filisteje, i biše ih do pod Vet-Har.

12 And Samuel taketh a stone, and setteth [it] between Mizpeh and Shen, and calleth its name Eben-Ezer, saying, 'Hitherto hath Jehovah helped us.'

Tada uze Samuilo kamen, i metnu ga izmeðu Mispe i Sena, i nazva ga Even-Ezer, jer reèe: dovde nam Gospod pomože.

13 And the Philistines are humbled, and have not added any more to come into the border of Israel, and the hand of Jehovah is on the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

Tako biše pokoreni Filisteji, i više ne dolaziše na meðu Izrailjevu. I ruka Gospodnja bješe protiv Filisteja svega vijeka Samuilova.

14 And the cities which the Philistines have taken from Israel are restored to Israel — from Ekron even unto Gath — and their border hath Israel delivered out of the hand of the Philistines; and there is peace between Israel and the Amorite.

I povratiše se Izrailju gradovi, koje bjehu uzeli Filisteji Izrailju, od Akarona do Gata, i meðe njihove izbavi Izrailj iz ruku Filistejskih; i bi mir meðu Izrailjem i Amorejima.

15 And Samuel judgeth Israel all the days of his life,

A Samuilo suðaše Izrailju svega vijeka svojega.

16 and he hath gone from year to year, and gone round Beth-El, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel [in] all these places;

I iduæi svake godine obilažaše Vetilj i Galgal i Mispu, i suðaše Izrailju u svijem tijem mjestima.

17 and his returning [is] to Ramath, for there [is] his house, and there he hath judged Israel, and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.

Potom se vraæaše u Ramu, jer ondje bijaše kuæa njegova, i suðaše ondje Izrailju, i ondje naèini oltar Gospodu.
