1 Samuelova 2
1 I Ana se pomoli i reèe: razveseli se srce moje u Gospodu; podiže se rog moj u Gospodu; otvoriše se usta moja na neprijatelje moje, jer sam radosna radi spasenja tvojega.
Then prayed Hannah, and said, My heart hath leaped for joy in Yahweh, My horn is exalted in Yahweh, My mouth is opened wide, o’er my foes, Because I rejoice in thy salvation.
2 Nema svetoga kao što je Gospod; jer nema drugoga osim tebe; i nema stijene kao što je Bog naš.
There is none holy like Yahweh, Nay! there, is none, except Thee, Nor, is, there a rock, like our God.
3 Ne govorite više ponosito, i neka ne izlaze iz usta vaših rijeèi ohole; jer je Gospod Bog koji sve zna, i on udešava namjere.
Do not multiply words, so loftily—loftily, Nor let arrogance proceed from your mouth, —For, a GOD of knowledge, is Yahweh, And, for himself, are great doings made firm.
4 Luk junacima slomi se, i iznemogli opasaše se snagom.
The bow of the mighty, is dismayed, —While, the fainting, are girded with strength;
5 Koji bijahu siti, naimaju se za hljeb; a koji bijahu gladni, nijesu više; i nerotkinja rodi sedmoro, a koja imaše djece, iznemože.
The sated, have, for bread, taken hire, But, the famished, have left off their toil, —So that, the barren, hath given birth unto seven, While, she that hath many sons, languisheth:
Yahweh, doth kill, and make alive, —Taketh down to hades, and bringeth up: (Sheol h7585)
7 Gospod siromaši, i bogati; ponižuje, i uzvišuje.
Yahweh, maketh poor, and enricheth, —Layeth low, yea exalteth;
8 Siromaha podiže iz praha, i iz bunjišta uzvišuje ubogoga da ga posadi s knezovima, i daje im da naslijede prijesto slave; jer su Gospodnji temelji zemaljski, i na njima je osnovao vasiljenu.
Raiseth, from the dust, the poor, From the dunghill, uplifteth the needy, To give them a dwelling with nobles, And, a throne of glory, to make them inherit. For, to Yahweh, belong the pillars of the earth, And he setteth thereon the habitable world.
9 Saèuvaæe noge milijeh svojih, a bezbožnici æe umuknuti u mraku; jer svojom snagom neæe èovjek nadjaèati.
The feet of his loving ones, he doth guard, But, the lawless, in darkness shall be silent, —For, by strength, shall no man prevail.
10 Koji se suprote Gospodu, satræe se; na njih æe zagrmjeti s neba; Gospod æe suditi krajevima zemaljskim, i daæe snagu caru svojemu, i uzvisiæe rog pomazaniku svojemu.
As for Yahweh, —they shall be shattered who contend with him, Over him, in the heavens will he thunder, Yahweh, will judge the ends of the earth, —That he may give strength to his King, And exalt the horn of his Anointed One.
11 Potom otide Elkana u Ramat kuæi svojoj, a dijete služaše Gospodu pred Ilijem sveštenikom.
Then went Elkanah to Ramah, unto his own house, —but, the boy, remained ministering unto Yahweh, before Eli the priest.
12 A sinovi Ilijevi bijahu nevaljali, i ne znadijahu za Gospoda.
Now, the sons of Eli, were abandoned men, —they knew not Yahweh.
13 Jer u tijeh sveštenika bješe obièaj prema narodu: kad ko prinošaše žrtvu, dolažaše momak sveštenikov dok se kuhaše meso s viljuškama trokrakim u ruci,
And, the custom of the priests with the people, was—when any man offered a sacrifice, then would come the priests young man, as the flesh was boiling, with a three-pronged fork in his hand;
14 I zabadaše u sud, ili u kotao, ili u tavu, ili u lonac, i što se god nabode na viljuške uzimaše sveštenik. Tako èinjahu svemu Izrailju koji dolažaše u Silom.
and would strike it into the boiler, or into the trough, or into the kettle, or into the pot, all that the fork would bring up, the priest took for himself. Thus and thus, used they to do unto all Israel, who came thither, in Shiloh.
15 Tako i prije nego bi zapalili salo, došao bi momak sveštenikov, te bi rekao èovjeku koji prinošaše žrtvu: daj meso da ispeèem svešteniku, jer ti neæu primiti mesa kuhana, nego sirovo.
Also, before any could make perfume with the fat, the priests young man would come in and say to the person who was sacrificing, Come! give flesh for the priest’s roastings, —for he will not take of thee boiled flesh—only raw.
16 Ako bi mu tada èovjek odgovorio: neka se prvo zapali salo, pa onda uzmi što ti god duša želi; on bi rekao: ne, nego daj sada, ako li ne daš, uzeæu silom.
And, if the man said to him, Let them at least, make incense, at once with the fat, then take thou as much as thy soul craveth, Then said he to him, But, at once, shalt thou give it; or else, I will take it by force.
17 I grijeh onijeh mladiæa bijaše vrlo velik pred Gospodom, jer ljudi ne marahu za prinos Gospodnji.
And so it was, that, the sin of the young men, was exceeding great, before Yahweh, —for men scorned the offerings of Yahweh.
18 A Samuilo služaše pred Gospodom još dijete u opleæku lanenom.
But, as for Samuel, he was ministering before Yahweh, —a boy girded with an ephod of linen.
19 A mati mu naèini mali plašt i donese mu, i tako èinjaše svake godine dolazeæi s mužem svojim da prinese žrtvu godišnju.
Also, a little robe, used his mother to make for him, and bring it up to him, from year to year, —when she came up with her husband, to offer the sacrifice of the year.
20 A Ilije blagoslovi Elkanu i ženu njegovu govoreæi: Gospod da ti da poroda od te žene za ovoga kojega je dala Gospodu! I otidoše u svoje mjesto.
And Eli used to bless Elkanah and his wife, and to say—Yahweh give thee seed of this woman, instead of the loan that hath been lent unto Yahweh. So they went their way to his own place.
21 I Gospod pohodi Anu, i ona zatrudnje i rodi tri sina i dvije kæeri. A dijete Samuilo rastijaše pred Gospodom.
And Yahweh visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bare three sons, and two daughters. Thus did the boy Samuel grow up with Yahweh.
22 A Ilije bijaše vrlo star, i èu sve što èinjahu sinovi njegovi svemu Izrailju, i kako spavahu sa ženama koje dolažahu gomilama na vrata šatora od sastanka.
Now, Eli, was very old, —but he used to hear all that his sons did unto all Israel, and how they even lay with the women who did service, at the opening of the tent of meeting.
23 I govoraše im: zašto to radite? jer èujem zle rijeèi o vama od svega naroda.
So he said to them, Wherefore should ye do such things as these? for I keep hearing of your wicked doings, from all these people.
24 Nemojte, djeco moja; jer nije dobro što èujem; otpaðujete narod Gospodnji.
Nay, my sons! for it is no good report that I do hear: leading into transgression the people of Yahweh.
25 Kad èovjek zgriješi èovjeku, sudiæe mu sudija; ali kad ko zgriješi Gospodu, ko æe moliti za nj? Ali ne poslušaše oca svojega, jer Gospod šæaše da ih ubije.
If one man sin against another, God will interpose, but, if, against Yahweh, a man sin, who will intercede, for him? But they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, for Yahweh was pleased to put them to death.
26 A dijete Samuilo rastijaše i bijaše mio i Gospodu i ljudima.
But, the boy Samuel, went on growing in stature, and in favour, —both with Yahweh, and also with men.
27 Tada doðe èovjek Božji k Iliju, i reèe mu: ovako veli Gospod: ne javih li se domu oca tvojega, kad bijahu u Misiru u kuæi Faraonovoj?
And there came a man of God, unto Eli, —and said unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, I, did indeed reveal myself, unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt, as servants unto the house of Pharaoh;
28 I izabrah ga izmeðu svijeh plemena Izrailjevijeh sebi za sveštenika da prinosi žrtve na oltaru mojem i da kadi kadom i nosi opleæak preda mnom, i dadoh domu oca tvojega sve žrtve ognjene sinova Izrailjevijeh?
choosing him out of all the tribes of Israel unto myself, to minister as priest, to offer upon mine altar, to perfume with incense to bear an ephod before me, —Therefore gave I unto the house of thy father all the altar-flames of the sons of Israel.
29 Zašto gazite žrtvu moju i prinos moj, koje sam zapovjedio da se prinose u šatoru? i paziš sinove svoje veæma nego mene, da se gojite prvinama svijeh prinosa Izrailja naroda mojega?
Wherefore have ye been kicking at my sacrifices, and my presents, which I commanded, to serve for a home, —and shouldest have honoured thy sons more than me: fattening yourselves, with the first of every present of Israel, before me?
30 Zato Gospod Bog Izrailjev kaže: rekao sam doista: dom tvoj i dom oca tvojega služiæe preda mnom dovijeka; ali kaže Gospod: neæe biti tako, jer one æu poštovati koji mene poštuju, a koji mene preziru, biæe prezreni.
Hence, the oracle of Yahweh God of Israel, I, said, that, thy house, and the house of thy father, should go to and fro in my presence, unto times age-abiding: But, now, (is the oracle of Yahweh)—Be it far from me! For, them who honour me, will I honour, but, they who despise me, shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Gle, idu dani, kad æu odsjeæi tebi ruku i ruku domu oca tvojega, da ne bude starca u domu tvojem.
Lo! days are coming, when I will hew off thine arm, and the arm of the house of thy father, —that there shall be no elder in thy house;
32 I vidjeæeš nevolju u šatoru mjesto svega dobra što je Gospod èinio Izrailju; neæe biti starca u domu tvojem dovijeka.
But thou shalt descry distress at home, in all that shall gladden Israel, —and there shall not be an elder in thine own house, all the days.
33 A koga od tvojih ne istrijebim ispred oltara svojega, onaj æe ostati da ti èile oèi i da ti se cvijeli duša; i sav podmladak doma tvojega umiraæe u najboljim godinama.
But, any man of thine whom I may not cut off from mine altar, it shall be—to consume his eyes, and grieve his soul; Howbeit, all the multitude of thy house, shall die, by the sword of men.
34 I ovo da ti je znak što æe doæi na oba sina tvoja, na Ofnija i Finesa: u jedan dan poginuæe obojica.
And, this, for thee is the sign, which shall come upon thy two sons, upon Hophni and Phinehas, —In one day, shall they, both of them, die;
35 A sebi æu podignuti sveštenika vjerna, on æe raditi po srcu mojemu i po duši mojoj; i sazidaæu mu tvrd dom, i on æe hoditi pred pomazanikom mojim vazda.
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, According to that which is in my heart and in my soul, will he do; Therefore will I build for him an assured house, and he shall go to and fro in presence of mine Anointed, all the days.
36 I ko ostane od doma tvojega, doæi æe da mu se pokloni za srebrn novac i za komad hljeba, i govoriæe: primi me u kaku službu sveštenièku da imam komad hljeba.
And it shall be, that, any that is left in thy house, shall come bowing down to him for a small coin of silver, and for a cake of bread, and shall say: Appoint me, I pray thee, to one of the priestly offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread.
