1 Samuelova 15
1 A Samuilo reèe Saulu: Gospod me je poslao da te pomažem za cara nad narodom njegovijem, nad Izrailjem; slušaj dakle rijeèi Gospodnje.
And Samuel said to Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint you king over Israel: and now hear the voice of the Lord.
2 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: opomenuh se šta je uèinio Amalik Izrailju, kako mu se opro na putu kad je išao iz Misira.
Thus said the Lord of hosts, Now will I take vengeance for what Amalec did to Israel, when he met him in the way as he came up out of Egypt.
3 Zato idi, i pobij Amalika, i zatri kao prokleto sve što god ima; ne žali ga, nego pobij i ljude i žene i djecu i što je na sisi i volove i ovce i kamile i magarce.
And now go, and you shall strike Amalec and Hierim and all that belongs to him, and you shall not save anything of him alive, but you shall utterly destroy him: and you shall devote him and all his to [destruction], and you shall spare nothing belonging to him; and you shall kill both man and woman, and infant and suckling, and calf and sheep, and camel and ass.
4 Tada Saul sazva narod, i izbroji ih u Telaimu, i bješe ih dvjesta tisuæa pješaka i deset tisuæa ljudi od Jude.
And Saul summoned the people, and he numbered them in Galgala, four hundred thousand regular troops, and Juda thirty thousand regular troops.
5 I doðe Saul do grada Amalièkoga, i namjesti zasjedu u potoku.
And Saul came to the cities of Amalec, and laid wait in the valley.
6 I reèe Saul Kenejima: idite, odvojte se, uklonite se od Amalika, da vas ne bih potro s njima; jer ste vi uèinili milost svijem sinovima Izrailjevijem kad su išli iz Misira. I otidoše Keneji od Amalika.
And Saul said to the Kinite, Go, and depart out of the midst of the Amalekites, lest I put you with them; for you dealt mercifully with the children of Israel when they went up out of Egypt. So the Kinite departed from the midst of Amalec.
7 I Saul pobi Amalike od Avile do Sura, koji je prema Misiru.
And Saul struck Amalec from Evilat to Sur fronting Egypt.
8 I uhvati Agaga cara Amalièkoga živa, a sav narod njegov pobi oštrijem maèem.
And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive, and he killed all the people and Hierim with the edge of the sword.
9 I Saul i narod njegov poštedje Agaga i najbolje ovce i najbolje volove i ugojenu stoku i jaganjce i sve što bijaše dobro, i ne htješe pobiti; nego što bijaše zlo i bez cijene, ono samo pobiše.
And Saul and all the people saved Agag alive, and the best of the flocks, and of the herds, and of the fruits, of the vineyards, and of all the good things; and they would not destroy them: but every worthless and refuse thing they destroyed.
10 Zato doðe rijeè Gospodnja k Samuilu govoreæi:
And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying,
11 Kajem se što sam Saula postavio carem, jer je otstupio od mene, i nije izvršio mojih rijeèi. I rasrdi se Samuilo vrlo, i vikaše ka Gospodu svu noæ.
I have repented that I have made Saul to be king: for he has turned back from following me, and has not kept my word. And Samuel was grieved, and cried to the Lord all night.
12 I ustavši rano Samuilo poðe pred Saula. I javiše Samuilu govoreæi: Saul doðe u Karmil, i eno podiže sebi spomenik, pa se vrati odande i otide dalje i siðe u Galgal.
And Samuel rose early and went to meet Israel in the morning, and it was told Saul, saying, Samuel has come to Carmel, and he has raised up help for himself: and he turned his chariot, and came down to Galgala to Saul; and, behold, he was offering up a whole burnt offering to the Lord, the chief of the spoils which he brought out of Amalec.
13 Kad Samuilo doðe k Saulu, reèe mu Saul: blagosloven da si Gospodu! izvršio sam rijeè Gospodnju.
And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said to him, Blessed [are] you of the Lord: I have performed all that the Lord said.
14 A Samuilo reèe: kakva je to bleka ovaca u ušima mojim? i rika volova koju èujem?
And Samuel said, What then [is] the bleating of this flock in my ears, and the sound of the oxen which I hear?
15 A Saul reèe: od Amalika dognaše ih; jer narod poštedje najbolje ovce i najbolje volove da prinese na žrtvu Gospodu Bogu tvojemu; ostalo pak pobismo kao prokleto.
And Saul said, I have brought them out of Amalec, that which the people preserved, even the best of the sheep, and of the cattle, that it might be sacrificed to the Lord your God, and the rest have I utterly destroyed.
16 A Samuilo reèe Saulu: stani da ti kažem što mi je rekao Gospod noæas. Reèe mu: govori.
And Samuel said to Saul, Stay, and I will tell you what the Lord has said to me this night: and he said to him, Say on.
17 Tada reèe Samuilo: nijesi li bio mali sam u svojim oèima, pak si postao glava plemenima Izrailjevijem, i Gospod te pomaza za cara nad Izrailjem?
And Samuel said to Saul, Are you not little in his eyes, [though] a leader of one of the tribes of Israel? and [yet] the Lord anointed you to be king over Israel.
18 I Gospod te posla na ovaj put i reèe: idi, pobij grješne Amalike, i vojuj na njih dokle ih ne istrijebite.
And the Lord sent you on a journey, and said to you, Go, and utterly destroy: you shall kill the sinners against me, [even] the Amalekites; and you shall war against them until you have consumed them.
19 Zašto dakle ne posluša glasa Gospodnjega, nego se naklopi na plijen, i uèini zlo pred Gospodom?
And why did not you listen to the voice of the Lord, but did haste to fasten upon the spoils, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord?
20 A Saul odgovori Samuilu: ta poslušao sam glas Gospodnji, i išao sam putem kojim me posla Gospod, i doveo sam Agaga cara Amalièkoga, a Amalike sam istrijebio.
And Saul said to Samuel, Because I listened to the voice of the people: yet I went the way by which the Lord sent me, and I brought Agag the king of Amalec, and I destroyed Amalec.
21 Nego narod uze od plijena ovce i volove, najbolje izmeðu prokletijeh stvari, da prinese na žrtvu Gospodu Bogu tvojemu u Galgalu.
But the people took of the spoils the best flocks and herds [out] of that which was destroyed, to sacrifice before the Lord our God in Galgal.
22 Ali Samuilo reèe: zar su mile Gospodu žrtve paljenice i prinosi kao kad se sluša glas njegov? gle, poslušnost je bolja od žrtve i pokornost od pretiline ovnujske.
And Samuel said, Does the Lord take pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in hearing the words of the Lord? behold, obedience [is] better than a good sacrifice, and hearkening than the fat of rams.
23 Jer je neposlušnost kao grijeh od èaranja, i nepokornost kao sujevjerstvo i idolopoklonstvo. Odbacio si rijeè Gospodnju, zato je i on tebe odbacio da ne budeš više car.
For sin is [as] divination; idols bring on pain and grief. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord also shall reject you from being king over Israel.
24 Tada reèe Saul Samuilu: zgriješio sam što sam prestupio zapovijest Gospodnju i tvoje rijeèi; jer pobojah se naroda i poslušah glas njegov.
And Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned, in that I have transgressed the word of the Lord and your direction; for I feared the people, and I listened to their voice.
25 Nego sada oprosti mi grijeh moj, i vrati se sa mnom da se poklonim Gospodu.
And now remove, I pray you, my sin, and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord your God.
26 A Samuilo reèe Saulu: neæu se vratiti s tobom, jer si odbacio rijeè Gospodnju, i zato je tebe Gospod odbacio da ne budeš više car nad Izrailjem.
And Samuel said to Saul, I will not turn back with you, for you have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord will reject you from being king over Israel.
27 I Samuilo se okrete da ide, ali ga Saul uhvati za skut od plašta njegova, te se odadrije.
And Samuel turned his face to depart, and Saul caught hold of the skirt of his garment, and tore it.
28 Tada mu reèe Samuilo: odadro je Gospod carstvo Izrailjevo od tebe danas, i dao ga bližnjemu tvojemu, koji je bolji od tebe.
And Samuel said to him, The Lord has tore your kingdom from Israel out of your hand this day, and will give it to your neighbour who is better than you.
29 I doista junak Izrailjev neæe slagati, niti æe se raskajati; jer nije èovjek da se kaje.
And Israel shall be divided to two: and [God] will not turn nor repent, for he is not as a man to repent.
30 A on reèe: zgriješio sam; ali mi sad uèini èast pred starješinama naroda mojega i pred Izrailjem, i vrati se sa mnom da se poklonim Gospodu Bogu tvojemu.
And Saul said, I have sinned; yet honour me, I pray you, before the elders of Israel, and before my people; and turn back with me, and I will worship the Lord your God.
31 I vrativši se Samuilo otide za Saulom, i pokloni se Saul Gospodu.
So Samuel turned back after Saul, and he worshipped the Lord.
32 Potom reèe Samuilo: dovedite mi Agaga cara Amalièkoga. I doðe k njemu Agag veseo, jer govoraše Agag: zaista, prošla je gorèina smrtna.
And Samuel said, Bring me Agag the king of Amalec: and Agag came to him trembling; and Agag said Is death thus bitter?
33 Ali Samuilo reèe: kako je tvoj maè uèinio te su žene ostale bez djece, tako æe ostati bez djece tvoja majka meðu ženama. I isijeèe Samuilo Agaga pred Gospodom u Galgalu.
And Samuel said to Agag, As your sword has bereaved women of their children, so shall your mother be made childless amongst women: and Samuel killed Agag before the Lord in Galgal.
34 Potom otide Samuilo u Ramu, a Saul otide kuæi svojoj u Gavaju Saulovu.
And Samuel departed to Armathaim, and Saul went up to his house at Gabaa.
35 I Samuilo više ne vidje Saula do svoje smrti, i plakaše Samuilo za Saulom, što se Gospod pokaja što je postavio Saula carem nad Izrailjem.
And Samuel did not see Saul again till the day of his death, for Samuel mourned after Saul, and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
