1 Kraljevima 1

1 A car David ostarje i bi vremenit, i koliko ga pokrivahu haljinama ne mogaše se zagrijati.

Now, King David, was old, advanced in days, —and they covered him with clothes, but he gat no heat.

2 Tada mu rekoše sluge njegove: neka potraže caru gospodaru našemu mladu djevojku, pa ona neka stoji pred carem i dvori ga, i na krilu neka mu spava, da se zagrijeva car gospodar naš.

Wherefore his servants said unto him—Let there be sought for my lord the king, a young woman—a virgin, so shall she stand before the king, that she may become his companion, —and she shall lie in thy bosom, and my lord the king shall get, heat.

3 I potražiše lijepu djevojku po svijem krajevima Izrailjskim, i naðoše Avisagu Sunamku, te je dovedoše caru.

So they sought a fair young woman, throughout all the bounds of Israel, —and found Abishag, the Shunammite, and brought her in, unto the king.

4 A ta djevojka bijaše vrlo lijepa, i dvoraše cara i služaše mu: ali je car ne pozna.

Now, the young woman, was exceeding fair, —so she became unto the king a companion, and ministered unto him, but, the king, knew her not.

5 A Adonija sin Agitin podiže se govoreæi: ja æu biti car. I nabavi sebi kola i konjika, i pedeset ljudi koji trèahu pred njim.

And, Adonijah son of Haggith, exalted himself, saying—I, will be king. Therefore prepared he for himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.

6 I otac ga nigda ne nakara, niti mu reèe: zašto radiš tako? A on bješe vrlo lijep, i mati ga rodi iza Avesaloma.

Now his father had not displeased him all his days, by saying—Why, thus, hast thou done? Moreover also, he, was of exceeding handsome appearance, and, him, did his mother bear, after Absolom.

7 I dogovaraše se s Joavom sinom Serujinim i s Avijatarom sveštenikom, koji pomagahu Adoniji.

So then he had speech with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, —and they gave help, following Adonijah.

8 Ali Sadok sveštenik i Venaja sin Jodajev i Natan prorok i Semej i Rej i junaci Davidovi ne pristaše za Adonijom.

But, Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Shimei, and Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.

9 Tada nakla Adonija ovaca i volova i ugojene stoke kod kamena Zoeleta, koji je kod izvora Rogila, i pozva svu braæu svoju, sinove careve, i sve ljude od Jude, sluge careve;

And Adonijah sacrificed sheep and oxen and heifers, near the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel, —and invited all his brethren, sons of the king, and all the men of Judah, servants of the king;

10 Ali ne pozva Natana proroka, ni Venaje, ni ostalijeh junaka, ni Solomuna brata svojega.

but, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.

11 Tada reèe Natan Vitsaveji materi Solomunovoj govoreæi: jesi li èula da se zacario Adonija sin Agitin? a gospodar naš David ne zna.

Then spake Nathan unto Bath-sheba mother of Solomon, saying—Hast thou not heard that Adonijah son of Haggith hath become king, and, our lord David, knoweth it not?

12 Nego sada hajde, ja æu te svjetovati kako æeš izbaviti dušu svoju i dušu sina svojega Solomuna.

Now, therefore, come; let me give thee counsel, I pray thee, —so shalt thou rescue thine own life, and the life of thy son, Solomon.

13 Hajde, otidi k caru Davidu i reci mu: nijesi li se ti, gospodaru moj care, zakleo sluškinji svojoj govoreæi: Solomun sin tvoj biæe car poslije mene, i on æe sjedjeti na prijestolu mojem? Zašto se dakle zacari Adonija?

Go, and get thee in unto King David, and thou shalt say unto him—Didst not, thou thyself, my lord O king, swear unto thy handmaid, saying—Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne? Why, then, hath, Adonijah, become king?

14 I gle, dok ti još budeš ondje govoreæi s carem, ja æu doæi za tobom, i dopuniæu tvoje rijeèi.

Lo! while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I also, will come in after thee, and confirm thy words.

15 I tako uðe Vitsaveja k caru u klijet. A car bijaše vrlo star; i Avisaga Sunamka dvoraše ga.

So Bath-sheba went in unto the king, into the chamber, now, the king, was very old, —and Abishag the Shunammite, was ministering unto the king.

16 I savivši se Vitsaveja pokloni se caru; a car joj reèe: šta æeš?

And Bath-sheba bowed, and did homage unto the king, —and the king said—What aileth thee?

17 A ona mu reèe: gospodaru moj, ti si se zakleo Gospodom Bogom svojim sluškinji svojoj: Solomun sin tvoj biæe car poslije mene, i on æe sjedjeti na prijestolu mojem.

And she said unto him—My lord, thou thyself, didst swear by Yahweh thy God, unto thy handmaid, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall sit upon my throne.

18 A sada evo Adonija se zacari, a ti, gospodaru moj care, i ne znaš.

But, now, lo! Adonijah, hath become king; now, therefore, my lord, O king, thou knowest it not:

19 Naklao je volova i ugojene stoke i ovaca mnogo, i pozvao sve sinove careve, i Avijatara sveštenika i Joava vojvodu; a Solomuna sluge tvojega nije pozvao.

and he hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab general of the army, —but, Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.

20 Sada, care gospodaru moj, oèi su svega Izrailja uprte u tebe, da im kažeš ko æe sjesti na prijesto tvoj, gospodaru moj care, poslije tebe.

Thou, therefore, my lord, O king, the eyes of all Israel, are upon thee, —to tell them, who shall sit upon the throne of my lord the king, after him.

21 Inaèe kad gospodar moj car poèine kod otaca svojih, biæemo ja i sin moj Solomun krivi.

Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king shall sleep with his fathers, then shall I and my son Solomon be counted, offenders.

22 I gle, dok ona još govoraše caru, doðe prorok Natan.

And lo! while yet she was speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet, came in.

23 I javiše caru govoreæi: evo Natana proroka. I on stupivši pred cara pokloni se caru licem do zemlje.

So they told the king, saying, Lo! Nathan the prophet! And, when he had come in before the king, he bowed himself down to the king with his face to the ground.

24 I reèe Natan: care, gospodaru moj, jesi li ti kazao: Adonija æe biti car poslije mene, i on æe sjedjeti na prijestolu mojem?

Then said Nathan—My lord, O king, hast, thou, said, Adonijah, shall become king after me, —yea, he, shall sit upon my throne?

25 Jer otide danas i nakla volova i ugojene stoke i ovaca mnogo, i pozva sve sinove careve i vojvode i Avijatara sveštenika; i eno jedu i piju s njim i govore: da živi car Adonija.

For he hath gone down to-day, and hath sacrificed oxen and heifers and sheep, in abundance, and hath invited all the sons of the king, and the generals of the army, and Abiathar the priest, and, there they are—eating and drinking before him, —and they have said—Long live King Adonijah!

26 Mene pak, sluge tvojega, ne pozva, ni Sadoka sveštenika, ni Venaje sina Jodajeva, ni Solomuna sluge tvojega.

But, me, even me thy servant, and Zadok the priest, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and Solomon thy servant, hath he not invited.

27 Je li to car gospodar moj naredio? ne kazav sluzi svojemu ko æe sjesti na prijesto gospodara mojega cara poslije njega.

If, of my lord the king, this thing had been brought to pass, then wouldest thou not have made known unto thy servant, who should sit upon the throne of my lord the king, after him?

28 A car David odgovori i reèe: zovite mi Vitsaveju. I ona doðe pred cara, i stade pred carem.

Then responded King David, and said, Call me Bath-sheba. So she came in before the king, and stood before the king.

29 Tada se zakle car govoreæi: tako da je živ Gospod, koji je izbavio dušu moju od svake nevolje,

And the king sware, and said, —By the life of Yahweh, who hath redeemed my life out of every strait,

30 Kako sam ti se zakleo Gospodom Bogom Izrailjevim rekavši: Solomun sin tvoj biæe car poslije mene, i on æe sjedjeti na prijestolu mojem mjesto mene, tako æu uèiniti danas.

even as I sware unto thee by Yahweh, God of Israel, saying, Assuredly, Solomon thy son, shall become king after me, yea, he, shall sit upon my throne, in my stead, even so, will I do this day.

31 Tada Vitsaveja savi se licem do zemlje i pokloni se caru, pa reèe: da živi gospodar moj car David dovijeka!

Then Bath-sheba bowed with her face to the ground, and did homage unto the king, —and said—Let my lord, King David, live to times age-abiding!

32 Potom reèe car David: zovite mi Sadoka sveštenika i Natana proroka i Venaju sina Jodajeva. I oni doðoše pred cara.

Then said King David—Call me Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada. And they came in before the king.

33 A car im reèe: uzmite sa sobom sluge gospodara svojega, i posadite Solomuna sina mojega na moju mazgu i odvedite ga do Giona;

Then said the king unto them—Take ye with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride upon the mule which pertaineth unto myself, —and bring him down unto Gihon;

34 I neka ga ondje Sadok sveštenik i Natan prorok pomažu za cara nad Izrailjem, i zatrubite u trubu i recite: da živi car Solomun!

then shall Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel, —and ye shall blow with the horn, and say—Long live King Solomon!

35 Potom se vratite za njim, i on neka doðe i sjede na prijesto moj i caruje mjesto mene; jer sam njega odredio da bude voð Izrailju i Judi.

Then shall ye come up after him, and he shall enter, and sit upon my throne, yea, he, shall become king in my stead; even, him, have I charged to become leader, over Israel, and over Judah.

36 A Venaja sin Jodajev odgovori caru i reèe: amin! neka tako reèe Gospod Bog gospodara mojega cara.

Then did Benaiah son of Jehoiada make response unto the king, and say—Amen! so, say Yahweh, God of my lord the king.

37 Kako je Gospod bio s gospodarem mojim carem tako neka bude i sa Solomunom, i neka podigne prijesto njegov još više nego prijesto gospodara mojega cara Davida.

As Yahweh hath been with my lord the king, so, let him he with Solomon, —and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord, King David.

38 I tako otide Sadok sveštenik i Natan prorok i Venaja sin Jodajev i Hereteji i Feleteji, i posadiše Solomuna na mazgu cara Davida i odvedoše ga do Giona.

So Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites and the Pelethites, went down, and caused Solomon to ride upon the mule of King David, —and they escorted him to Gihon.

39 I Sadok sveštenik uze rog s uljem iz šatora, i pomaza Solomuna. Potom zatrubiše u trubu i sav narod reèe: da živi car Solomun!

Then took Zadok the priest, the horn of oil out of the Tent, and anointed Solomon, —and they blew with a [ram’s] horn, and all the people said, Long live King Solomon!

40 I sav narod poðe za njim, i narod sviraše u svirale i veseljaše se veoma da se zemlja razlijegaše od vike njihove.

And all the people came up after him, the people themselves also, playing with flutes, and rejoicing with great joy, —so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

41 I zaèu Adonija i sve zvanice koje bijahu s njim, pošto jedoše; zaèu i Joav glas trubni, pa reèe: kaka je to vika i vreva u gradu?

And Adonijah, and all the guests who were with him, heard it, just as, they, had made an end of eating, —and, when Joab heard the sound of a horn, he said—Wherefore the noise of the city, in tumult?

42 I dokle on još govoraše, gle, doðe Jonatan sin Avijatara sveštenika; i Adonija mu reèe: hodi, jer si junak i nosiš dobre glase.

While yet he was speaking, lo! Jonathan son of Abiathar the priest, came in, —and Adonijah said—Come in, for, a worthy man, thou art, and, good tidings, dost thou bring.

43 A Jonatan odgovori i reèe Adoniji: ta, gospodar naš car David postavi Solomuna carem.

But Jonathan responded and said to Adonijah, —Of a truth, our lord, King David, hath made, Solomon, king.

44 Jer car posla s njim Sadoka sveštenika i Natana proroka i Venaju sina Jodajeva, i Hereteje i Feleteje, i posadiše ga na carevu mazgu.

And the king hath sent with him—Zadok the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada, with the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, —and they have caused him to ride upon the mule of the king;

45 I pomazaše ga Sadok sveštenik i Natan prorok kod Giona za cara, i otidoše odande veseleæi se tako da je grad uzavreo; to je vika koju èuste.

and Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king, in Gihon, and they went up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again, —That, is the noise ye have heard.

46 I Solomun je veæ sjeo na carski prijesto.

Moreover also, Solomon hath taken his seat upon the throne of the kingdom.

47 I došle su sluge careve, i blagosloviše gospodara našega cara Davida govoreæi: da Bog proslavi ime Solomunovo još veæma nego tvoje, i prijesto njegov da podigne još više nego tvoj. I pokloni se car na postelji svojoj.

Moreover also, the servants of the king have been in, to bless our lord King David, saying—Thy God make the name of Solomon better than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne, —And the king bowed himself upon his bed.

48 Još ovako reèe car: da je blagosloven Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji dade danas ko æe sjedjeti na prijestolu mojemu, da vide moje oèi.

Moreover also, thus and thus, hath said the king, —Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who hath given, to-day, one to sit upon my throne, mine own eyes also beholding it.

49 Tada se prepadoše, i ustaše sve zvanice Adonijine, i otidoše svak svojim putem.

Then trembled and rose up, all Adonijah’s guests, —and departed, every man his own way.

50 A Adonija bojeæi se Solomuna usta i otide, i uhvati se za rogove oltaru.

Adonijah also, feared because of Solomon, —and rose and went, and caught hold of the horns of the altar.

51 I javiše Solomunu govoreæi: eno, Adonija se uplašio od cara Solomuna, i eno ga, uhvatio se za rogove oltaru, i veli: neka mi se zakune car Solomun da neæe ubiti sluge svojega maèem.

And it was told Solomon, saying, Lo! Adonijah, feareth King Solomon, —lo! therefore, he hath laid hold of the horns of the altar, saying, Let King Solomon swear unto me at once that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.

52 A Solomun reèe: ako bude pošten èovjek, ni dlaka s glave njegove neæe pasti na zemlju; ali ako se naðe zlo na njemu, poginuæe.

Then said Solomon, If he will be a man of worth, there shall not one hair of him fall to the earth, —but, if mischief be found in him, then shall he die.

53 I tako posla car Solomun, te ga dovedoše od oltara; i kad doðe, pokloni se caru Solomunu; a Solomun mu reèe: idi kuæi svojoj.

So King Solomon sent, and brought him down from the altar, and he came in, and bowed himself down to King Solomon, —and Solomon said unto him—Go to thine own house.
