< 1 Samuelova 13 >
1 Kad Saul bi car godinu dana a carova dvije godine nad Izrailjem
When Saul had reigned one year, —and two years he reigned over Israel, —
2 Izabra sebi Saul tri tisuæe izmeðu sinova Izrailjevih; i bijahu kod Saula dvije tisuæe u Mihmasu i u gori Vetiljskoj, a jedna tisuæa s Jonatanom u Gavaji Venijaminovoj; a ostali narod raspusti u šatore njihove.
Saul chose for himself three thousand men out of Israel; and there were with Saul two thousand in Michmash and on the mountain of Beth-el, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gib'ah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent away every man to his tents.
3 I Jonatan pobi stražu Filistejsku koja bješe u Gavaji, i èuše za to Filisteji. A Saul zapovjedi, te trubiše u trube po svoj zemlji govoreæi: neka èuju Jevreji.
And Jonathan smote the outpost of the Philistines that was at Geba', and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the cornet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear it.
4 I tako èu sav Izrailj gdje rekoše: pobi Saul stražu Filistejsku; i stoga Izrailj omrznu Filistejima. I sazvan bi narod za Saulom u Galgal.
And all Israel heard it, saying, Saul hath smitten the outpost of the Philistines, and the Israelites also have put themselves in ill-favor with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
5 A Filisteji se skupiše da vojuju na Izrailja, trideset tisuæa kola i šest tisuæa konjika, i mnoštvo naroda kao pijesak na brijegu morskom; i izašavši stadoše u oko u Mihmasu, s istoka od Vet-Avena.
And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea-shore in multitude; and they came up, and encamped in Michmash, eastward from Bethaven.
6 I Izrailjci se vidješe u nevolji, jer narod bi pritiješnjen; te se sakri u peæine i u èeste i u kamenjake i u rasjeline i u jame.
And when the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, [for the people were oppressed, ] then did the people hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in strongholds, and in pits.
7 A drugi Jevreji prijeðoše preko Jordana u zemlju Gadovu i Galadovu. A Saul još bijaše u Galgalu, i sav narod što iðaše za njim bijaše u strahu.
And some of the Hebrews passed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gil'ad. As for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him hastily.
8 I poèeka sedam dana do roka Samuilova. Ali Samuilo ne doðe u Galgal; te se narod stade razlaziti od njega.
And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed; but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattering themselves from him.
9 Tada reèe Saul: dodajte mi žrtvu paljenicu i žrtve zahvalne. I prinese žrtvu paljenicu.
And Saul said, Bring hither to me the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings. And he offered the burnt-offering.
10 I kad prinese žrtvu paljenicu, gle, doðe Samuilo. I Saul izide mu na susret da ga pozdravi.
And it came to pass, that, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt-offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.
11 A Samuilo mu reèe: šta si uèinio? A Saul odgovori: kad vidjeh gdje se narod razlazi od mene, a ti ne doðe do roka, i Filisteji se skupili u Mihmasu,
And Samuel said, What hast thou done: And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattering themselves from me, whereas thou camest not at the appointed day, and the Philistines are gathering themselves together at Michmash;
12 Rekoh: sad æe udariti Filisteji na me u Galgal, a ja se još ne pomolih Gospodu; te se usudih i prinesoh žrtvu paljenicu.
And I said, The Philistines will now come down unto me to Gilgal, and I have not yet made supplication unto the Lord: wherefore I forced myself, and offered the burnt-offering.
13 Tada reèe Samuilo Saulu: ludo si radio što nijesi držao zapovijesti Gospoda Boga svojega, koju ti je zapovjedio; jer bi sada Gospod utvrdio carstvo tvoje nad Izrailjem dovijeka.
And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy God, which he had commanded thee; for now would the Lord have established thy government over Israel for ever.
14 A sada carstvo tvoje neæe se održati. Gospod je našao sebi èovjeka po srcu svojemu, i njemu je zapovjedio Gospod da bude voð narodu njegovu, jer nijesi držao što ti je zapovjedio Gospod.
But now thy government shall not endure: the Lord hath sought out for himself a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath ordained him to be chief over his people; because thou hast not kept what the Lord had commanded thee.
15 Potom diže se Samuilo i otide iz Galgala u Gavaju Venijaminovu. I Saul izbroji narod koji osta kod njega, i bješe ga do šest stotina ljudi.
And Samuel arose, and went up from Gilgal unto Gib'ah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were to be found with him, about six hundred men.
16 I Saul i sin mu Jonatan i narod što bješe s njima, stajahu u Gavaji Venijaminovoj; a Filisteji stajahu u okolu u Mihmasu.
And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were to be found with them, were lying in Geba' of Benjamin; but the Philistines were encamped in Michmash.
17 I izidoše tri èete iz okola Filistejskoga da plijene: jedna èeta udari putem k Ofri u zemlju Sovalsku;
And the troop of freebooters went out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned into the way to 'Ophrah, unto the land of Shu'al;
18 A druga èeta udari putem k Vet-Oronu; a treæa udari putem k meði koja gleda prema dolini Sevojimskoj u pustinju.
And another company turned into the way to Beth-choron; and the other company turned into the way to the frontier that looketh over the valley of Zebo'im toward the wilderness.
19 A u cijeloj zemlji Izrailjskoj ne bješe kovaèa, jer Filisteji rekoše: da ne bi gradili Jevreji maèeva ni kopalja.
Now there was no smith to be found throughout all the land of Israel; for the Philistines said, So that the Hebrews shall not make themselves swords or spears.
20 Zato slažahu svi Izrailjci k Filistejima kad koji šæaše poklepati raonik ili motiku ili sjekiru ili srp.
But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plough-share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.
21 I bijahu se zatupili raonici i motike i vile troroge i sjekire, i same ostane trebaše zaoštriti.
And they used a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the three-pronged forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.
22 Zato kad doðe vrijeme boju, ne naðe se maèa ni koplja ni u koga u narodu koji bješe sa Saulom i Jonatanom; samo bijaše u Saula i u Jonatana sina njegova.
So it came to pass on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan; but they were found with Saul and with Jonathan his son.
23 I straža Filistejska izide u klanac kod Mihmasa.
And the outpost of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
