1 Samuelova 20
1 A David pobježe iz Najota u Rami, i doðe i reèe Jonatanu: šta sam uèinio? kakva je krivica moja? i šta sam zgriješio ocu tvojemu, te traži dušu moju?
Then David fled from the dwellings at Ramah, and came before Jonathan and said, "What have I done? What is my iniquity? What is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"
2 A on mu reèe: saèuvaj Bože! neæeš ti poginuti. Evo otac moj ne èini ništa, ni veliko ni malo, a da meni ne kaže; a kako bi to tajio od mene otac moj? Neæe to biti.
He said to him, "Far from it; you shall not die. Look, my father does nothing either great or small, but that he discloses it to me; and why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so."
3 A David zaklinjuæi se opet reèe: otac tvoj zna dobro da sam našao ljubav u tebe, pa veli: ne treba da dozna za ovo Jonatan, da se ne ožalosti. Ali tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, samo je jedan korak izmeðu mene i smrti.
And David answered and said, "Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, 'Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved:' but truly as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."
4 A Jonatan reèe Davidu: šta želi duša tvoja? Ja æu ti uèiniti.
Then Jonathan said to David, "Whatever your soul desires, I will do for you."
5 I David reèe Jonatanu: evo sjutra je mladina, kad treba s carem da jedem, pusti me dakle da se sakrijem u polju do treæega veèera.
So David said to Jonathan, "Look, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. Instead, let me go so that I may hide myself in the field until evening.
6 Ako zapita za me otac tvoj, ti reci: vrlo mi se molio David da otrèi u Vitlejem grad svoj, jer je ondje godišnja žrtva svega roda njegova.
If your father missed me at all, then say, 'David urgently requested of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city, for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family.'
7 Ako reèe: dobro, biæe miran sluga tvoj; ako li se razgnjevi, znaj da je zlo naumio.
If he says, 'It is well;' your servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, then know that evil is determined by him.
8 Uèini dakle milost sluzi svojemu, kad si vjeru Gospodnju uhvatio sa slugom svojim; ako je kaka krivica na meni, ubij me sam, jer zašto bi me vodio k ocu svojemu?
Therefore deal kindly with your servant; for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you: but if there is iniquity in me, kill me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?"
9 A Jonatan mu reèe: Bože saèuvaj; jer da doznam da je otac moj naumio zlo da te zadesi, zar ti ne bih javio?
Jonathan said, "Far be it from you; for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come on you, then wouldn't I tell you that?"
10 A David reèe Jonatanu: ko æe mi javiti ako ti otac odgovori što zlo?
Then David said to Jonathan, "Who will tell me if your father answers you harshly?"
11 A Jonatan reèe Davidu: hodi da izidemo u polje. I izidoše obojica u polje.
Jonathan said to David, "Come, and let us go out into the field." They both went out into the field.
12 I Jonatan reèe Davidu: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! kad iskušam oca svojega sjutra u ovo doba ili prekosjutra, i bude dobro po Davida, ako ne pošljem k tebi i ne javim ti,
Jonathan said to David, "The LORD, the God of Israel, is witness. When I have studied my father, about this time tomorrow, or the third day, look, if there is good toward David, shall I not then send to you, and disclose it to you?
13 Neka Gospod uèini tako Jonatanu i tako neka doda. Ako li otac moj bude naumio da ti uèini zlo, ja æu ti javiti, i opraviæu te, i otiæi æeš s mirom; i Gospod neka bude s tobom kao što je bio s ocem mojim.
But should it please my father to do you harm, God do so to Jonathan and more also if I do not let you know and send you away, that you may go in safety. And may the LORD be with you, as he has been with my father.
14 A i ti, dokle sam živ, èiniæeš meni milost Gospodnju da ne poginem;
And if I am still alive, deal loyally with me. But if I die,
15 I neæeš ukratiti milosti svoje domu mojemu dovijeka, ni onda kad Gospod istrijebi sve neprijatelje Davidove sa zemlje.
do not cut off your loyalty from my house forever. And when the LORD cuts off the enemies of David, each one from the face of the earth,
16 Tako Jonatan uèini vjeru s domom Davidovijem govoreæi: Gospod neka traži iz ruku neprijatelja Davidovijeh.
if the name of Jonathan be cut off from the house of David, then may the LORD require it at the hand of the enemies of David."
17 I još zakle Jonatan Davida ljubavlju svojom k njemu, jer ga ljubljaše kao svoju dušu.
And Jonathan swore to David again, because he loved him, for he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18 Potom reèe mu Jonatan: sjutra je mladina, i pitaæe se za te, jer æe tvoje mjesto biti prazno.
Then Jonathan said, "Tomorrow is the new moon: and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.
19 A ti èekaj do treæega dana, pa onda otidi brzo i doði na mjesto gdje si se bio sakrio kad se ovo radilo, i sjedi kod kamena Ezila.
On the third day you should go down quickly, and come to the place where you hid yourself when this started, and stay by that mound.
20 A ja æu baciti tri strijele ukraj toga kamena, kao da gaðam biljegu.
And as for me, on the third day I will shoot arrows to its side, aiming it toward a target.
21 I evo poslaæu momka govoreæi mu: idi, naði strijele. Ako reèem momku: eto strijele su za tobom ovamo bliže, digni ih; tada doði, dobro je po te, i neæe ti biti ništa, tako živ bio Gospod!
Look, I will send the boy, saying, 'Go, find the arrows.' If I tell the boy, 'Look, the arrow is on this side of you. Take it;' then come; for there is peace to you and no hurt, as the LORD lives.
22 Ako li ovako reèem momku: eto strijele su pred tobom tamo dalje; onda idi, jer te Gospod šalje.
But if I say this to the boy, 'Look, the arrow is beyond you;' then go your way; for the LORD has sent you away.
23 A za ove rijeèi što rekosmo ja i ti, evo, Gospod je svjedok izmeðu mene i tebe dovijeka.
Concerning the matter which you and I have spoken of, look, the LORD is a witness between you and me forever."
24 Potom se David sakri u polju; i doðe mladina, i car sjede za sto da jede.
So David hid himself in the field. And when the new moon had come, the king sat at the table to eat.
25 A kad car sjede na svoje mjesto, po obièaju na mjesto kod zida, Jonatan usta, a Avenir sjede do Saula, a mjesto Davidovo bješe prazno.
The king sat on his seat, as at other times, even on the seat by the wall; and Jonathan sat opposite, and Abner sat by Saul's side: but David's place was empty.
26 I Saul ne reèe ništa onaj dan, jer mišljaše: dogodilo mu se štogod, te nije èist, zacijelo nije èist.
Nevertheless Saul did not say anything that day: for he thought, "Something has happened to him. He is not clean. Surely he is not clean."
27 A sjutradan, drugi dan mjeseca, opet bješe prazno mjesto Davidovo, a Saul reèe Jonatanu sinu svojemu: zašto sin Jesejev ne doðe na objed ni juèe ni danas?
It happened on the next day after the new moon, the second day, that David's place was empty. Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why hasn't the son of Jesse come to the table, either yesterday or today?"
28 A Jonatan odgovori Saulu: vrlo me je molio David da otide do Vitlejema,
Jonathan answered Saul, and said, "David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem.
29 Rekavši: pusti me, jer porodica naša ima žrtvu u gradu, i sam mi je brat zapovjedio; ako sam dakle našao milost pred tobom, da otidem i vidim braæu svoju. Zato nije došao na carev objed.
He said, 'Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city. And as for me, my brothers have ordered me to be there. Now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table."
30 Tada se razgnjevi Saul na Jonatana, te mu reèe: nevaljali i neposlušni sine! zar ja ne znam da si izabrao sina Jesejeva sebi na sramotu i na sramotu svojoj nevaljaloj majci?
Then Saul's anger flared up at Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a rebellious slave girl, don't I know that you are the companion of the son of Jesse, to your own disgrace, and to the disgrace of your mother's nakedness?
31 Jer dokle je živ sin Jesejev na zemlji, neæeš se utvrditi ni ti ni carstvo tvoje; zato pošlji sada i dovedi ga k meni, jer je zaslužio smrt.
For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, your kingdom will not be established. Therefore now send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die."
32 A Jonatan odgovori Saulu ocu svojemu i reèe mu: zašto da se pogubi? šta je uèinio?
But Jonathan answered Saul, "Why should he be put to death? What has he done?"
33 Tada se Saul baci kopljem na nj da ga ubije. Tada vidje Jonatan da je otac njegov naumio ubiti Davida.
Then Saul raised his spear at him to strike him, and Jonathan realized that this evil from his father to kill David was determined.
34 I usta Jonatan od stola gnjevan, i ništa ne jede drugi dan po mladini; jer se zabrinu za Davida, što ga otac osramoti.
So Jonathan sprang up from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, because his father had dishonored him.
35 A kad bi ujutru, izide Jonatan u polje u vrijeme kako bješe ugovorio s Davidom, i s njim jedno momèe.
It happened in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little boy with him.
36 I reèe momku svojemu: trèi da mi naðeš strijele koje æu pustiti. I momèe otrèa, a on pusti strijelu preko njega.
He said to the boy, "Run, find now the arrows which I shoot." And as the boy ran, he shot an arrow, causing it to pass beyond, toward the city.
37 A kad doðe momak do mjesta kuda bješe zastrijelio Jonatan, viknu Jonatan za momkom govoreæi: nije li strijela dalje naprijed?
When the boy had come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan called after the youth, and said, "Isn't the arrow beyond you?"
38 Još viknu Jonatan za momkom: brže, ne stoj. I momak Jonatanov pokupi strijele, i vrati se gospodaru svojemu.
Jonathan cried after the boy, "Go fast. Hurry. Do not delay." Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.
39 Ali momak ne znaše ništa, samo Jonatan i David znahu šta je.
But the boy did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40 I Jonatan dade oružje svoje momku koji bijaše s njim, i reèe mu: idi, odnesi u grad.
Jonathan gave his weapons to his boy, and said to him, "Go, carry them to the city."
41 I kad momak otide, David usta s južne strane i pade nièice na zemlju i pokloni se tri puta, i poljubiše se, i plakaše obojica, a David osobito.
As soon as the boy was gone, David arose from beside the mound, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another, and wept one with another, and David wept the most.
42 I reèe Jonatan Davidu: idi s mirom, kao što smo se zakleli obojica imenom Gospodnjim rekavši: Gospod da je svjedok izmeðu mene i tebe i izmeðu mojega sjemena i tvojega sjemena dovijeka. I tako David ustavši otide, a Jonatan se vrati u grad.
Then Jonathan said, "Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, 'The LORD shall be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants, forever.'" He arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
