1 Samuelova 18
1 I kad svrši razgovor sa Saulom, duša Jonatanova prionu za dušu Davidovu, i Jonatan ga zapazi kao svoju dušu.
And it comes to pass, when he finishes to speak to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan has been bound to the soul of David, and Jonathan loves him as his own soul.
2 I uze ga Saul taj dan, i ne dade mu da se vrati kuæi oca svojega.
And Saul takes him on that day, and has not permitted him to return to the house of his father.
3 I Jonatan uèini vjeru s Davidom, jer ga ljubljaše kao svoju dušu.
And Jonathan makes—David also—a covenant, because he loves him as his own soul,
4 I skide Jonatan sa sebe plašt, koji nošaše, i dade ga Davidu, i odijelo svoje i maè svoj i luk svoj i pojas svoj.
and Jonathan strips himself of the upper robe which [is] on him, and gives it to David, and his long robe, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
5 I iðaše David na što ga god Saul pošiljaše, i bijaše sreæan, i postavi ga Saul nad vojnicima, i omilje svemu narodu, pa i slugama Saulovijem.
And David goes out wherever Saul sends him; he acted wisely, and Saul sets him over the men of war, and it is good in the eyes of all the people, and also in the eyes of the servants of Saul.
6 A kad se vraæahu, i kad se David vraæaše ubivši Filistejina, izlaziše žene iz svakoga grada Izrailjeva pjevajuæi i igrajuæi na susret caru Saulu, s bubnjima i s veseljem i guslama.
And it comes to pass, in their coming in, in David’s returning from striking the Philistine, that the women come out from all the cities of Israel to sing—also the dancers—to meet Saul the king, with tambourines, with joy, and with three-stringed instruments;
7 I otpijevajuæi žene jedne drugima uza svirke govorahu: Saul zgubi svoju tisuæu, ali David svojih deset tisuæa.
and the women answer—those playing, and say, “Saul has struck among his thousands, And David among his myriads.”
8 I razgnjevi se Saul vrlo, i ne biše mu po volji te rijeèi, i reèe: Davidu dadoše deset tisuæa, a meni dadoše tisuæu; još mu samo carstvo treba.
And it is exceedingly displeasing to Saul, and this thing is evil in his eyes, and he says, “They have given myriads to David, and they have given the thousands to me, and what more [is there] for him but the kingdom?”
9 I od toga dana Saul gledaše poprijeko Davida.
And Saul is eyeing David from that day and from then on.
10 A sjutradan napade Saula zli duh Božji, te prorokovaše u kuæi, a David mu udaraše rukom svojom u gusle kao prije: a Saulu u ruci bješe koplje.
And it comes to pass, on the next day, that the spirit of sadness [from] God prospers over Saul, and he prophesies in the midst of the house, and David is playing with his hand, as [he did] day by day, and the javelin [is] in the hand of Saul,
11 I Saul baci koplje govoreæi: da prikujem Davida za zid. Ali mu se David izmaèe dva puta.
and Saul casts the javelin and says, “I strike through David, even through the wall”; and David turns around out of his presence twice.
12 I Saula bješe strah od Davida, jer Gospod bješe s njim, a od Saula bješe otstupio.
And Saul is afraid of the presence of David, for YHWH has been with him, and He has turned aside from Saul;
13 Zato ga ukloni Saul od sebe, i postavi ga tisuænikom; i on odlažaše i dolažaše pred narodom.
and Saul turns him aside from him, and appoints him to himself [for] head of one thousand, and he goes out and comes in, before the people.
14 I David bijaše sreæan u svemu što èinjaše, jer Gospod bijaše s njim.
And David is acting wisely in all his ways, and YHWH [is] with him,
15 A Saul videæi da je veoma sreæan, bojaše ga se.
and Saul sees that he is acting very wisely, and is afraid of him,
16 A sav Izrailj i Juda ljubljaše Davida, jer on odlažaše i dolažaše pred njima.
and all Israel and Judah love David when he is going out and coming in before them.
17 I reèe Saul Davidu: evo, kæer svoju stariju Meravu daæu ti za ženu, samo mi budi hrabar i vodi ratove Gospodnje. Jer Saul govoraše: neæu da se digne moja ruka na nj, nego Filistejska ruka neka se digne na nj.
And Saul says to David, “Behold, my elder daughter Merab—I give her to you for a wife; only, be for a son of valor to me, and fight the battles of YHWH”; and Saul said, “Do not let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him.”
18 A David reèe Saulu: ko sam ja i kakav je život moj ili dom oca mojega u Izrailju, da budem zet carev?
And David says to Saul, “Who [am] I? And what [is] my life—the family of my father in Israel—that I am son-in-law of the king?”
19 A kad doðe vrijeme da Meravu kæer Saulovu dadu Davidu, dadoše je Adrilu Meolaæaninu za ženu.
And it comes to pass, at the time of the giving of Merab daughter of Saul to David, that she has been given to Adriel the Meholathite for a wife.
20 Ali Davida ljubljaše Mihala kæi Saulova; a kad to javiše Saulu, bi mu po volji.
And Michal daughter of Saul loves David, and they declare [it] to Saul, and the thing is right in his eyes,
21 I reèe Saul: daæu mu je da mu bude zamka i da se diže na nj ruka Filistejska. A Davidu reèe Saul: biæeš mi danas zet s drugom.
and Saul says, “I give her to him, and she is for a snare to him, and the hand of the Philistines is on him”; and Saul says to David, “By the second—you become my son-in-law today.”
22 I zapovjedi Saul slugama svojim: recite Davidu tajno i govorite: gle, omilio si caru, i sve sluge njegove ljube te; budi sada zet carev.
And Saul commands his servants, “Speak to David gently, saying, Behold, the king has delighted in you, and all his servants have loved you, and now, be son-in-law of the king.”
23 I sluge Saulove rekoše te rijeèi Davidu, a David reèe: mislite li da je lako biti zet carev? ta ja sam siromah i mali èovjek.
And the servants of Saul speak these words in the ears of David, and David says, “Is it a light thing in your eyes to be son-in-law of the king—and I a poor man, and lightly esteemed?”
24 I Saulu javiše ovo sluge njegove govoreæi: ovako reèe David.
And the servants of Saul declare [it] to him, saying, “David has spoken according to these words.”
25 A Saul reèe: ovako recite Davidu: ne traži car uzdarja, nego sto okrajaka Filistejskih, da se car osveti svojim neprijateljima. A Saul mišljaše kako bi David pao u ruke Filistejima.
And Saul says, “Thus you say to David, There is no delight for the king in dowry, but in one hundred foreskins of the Philistines—to be avenged on the enemies of the king”; and Saul thought to cause David to fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 I sluge njegove kazaše Davidu te rijeèi, i Davidu bi po volji da postane carev zet. I vrijeme se još ne navrši.
And his servants declare these words to David, and the thing is right in the eyes of David, to be son-in-law of the king; and the days have not been full,
27 A David usta i otide sa svojim ljudima, i pobi dvjesta Filisteja. I donese David okrajke njihove, i dadoše ih na broj caru da bi postao carev zet. I Saul mu dade za ženu Mihalu kæer svoju.
and David rises and goes, he and his men, and strikes two hundred men among the Philistines, and David brings in their foreskins, and they set them before the king, to be son-in-law of the king; and Saul gives his daughter Michal to him for a wife.
28 I Saul vidje i pozna da je Gospod sa Davidom; i Mihala kæi Saulova ljubljaše ga.
And Saul sees and knows that YHWH [is] with David, and Michal daughter of Saul has loved him,
29 A Saul se još veæma poboja Davida; i bijaše Saul jednako neprijatelj Davidu.
and Saul adds to be afraid of the presence of David still; and Saul is an enemy of David [for] all the days.
30 A knezovi Filistejski udarahu; i kad god udarahu, David bijaše sreæniji od svijeh sluga Saulovijeh, i ime se njegovo vrlo proslavi.
And the princes of the Philistines come out, and it comes to pass from the time of their coming out, David has acted more wisely than any of the servants of Saul, and his name is very precious.
