1 Samuelova 22

1 Tada David otide odande i uteèe u peæinu Odolamsku. A kad to èuše braæa njegova i sav dom oca njegova, doðoše onamo k njemu.

And David departed thence, and escaped to the cave of Adullam. And his brethren and all his father's house heard [it], and they went down thither to him.

2 I skupiše se oko njega koji god bijahu u nevolji i koji bijahu zaduženi i koji god bijahu tužna srca; i on im posta poglavica; i bješe ih s njim oko èetiri stotine ljudi.

And every one in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one of embittered spirit collected round him; and he became a captain over them; and there were with him about four hundred men.

3 I odande otide David u Mispu Moavsku, i reèe caru Moavskom: dopusti da se otac moj i mati moja sklone kod vas dokle vidim šta æe Bog uèiniti sa mnom.

And David went thence to Mizpeh in Moab, and said to the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother, I pray thee, come forth amongst you, till I know what God will do for me.

4 I izvede ih pred cara Moavskoga, i ostaše kod njega za sve vrijeme dokle David bješe u onom gradu.

And he brought them before the king of Moab; and they abode with him all the while that David was in the stronghold.

5 Ali prorok Gad reèe Davidu: nemoj ostati u tom gradu, idi i vrati se u zemlju Judinu. I David otide i doðe u šumu Aret.

And the prophet Gad said to David, Abide not in the stronghold; depart, and go into the land of Judah. Then David departed, and came into the forest of Hareth.

6 A Saul èu da se pojavio David i ljudi što bijahu s njim. Tada Saul sjeðaše u Gavaji pod šumom u Rami, s kopljem u ruci, a sve sluge njegove stajahu pred njim.

And Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men that were with him. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah under the tamarisk upon the height, having his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing by him.

7 I reèe Saul slugama svojim koje stajahu pred njim: èujte sinovi Venijaminovi; hoæe li vama svjema sin Jesejev dati njive i vinograde? hoæe li sve vas uèiniti tisuænicima i stotinicima?

Then Saul said to his servants that stood by him, Hear now, ye Benjaminites: will the son of Jesse give every one of you also fields and vineyards? Will he make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds,

8 Te ste se svi složili na me, i nema nikoga da mi javi da se moj sin složio sa sinom Jesejevijem, i nema nikoga meðu vama da mari za me i da mi javi da je sin moj podigao slugu mojega na me da mi zasjeda, kao što se danas vidi.

that all of you have conspired against me, and there is none that informs me when my son has made [a covenant] with the son of Jesse; and there is none of you that is sorry for me, or informs me that my son has stirred up my servant as a lier-in-wait against me, as at this day?

9 Tada odgovori Doik Idumejac, koji stajaše sa slugama Saulovijem, i reèe: vidio sam sina Jesejeva gdje doðe u Nov k Ahimelehu sinu Ahitovovu.

Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.

10 On pita za nj Gospoda, i dade mu brašnjenice: i maè Golijata Filistejina dade mu.

And he inquired of Jehovah for him, and gave him victuals, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

11 Tada car posla da dovedu Ahimeleha sina Ahitovova sveštenika i sav dom oca njegova, sveštenike, koji bijahu u Novu. I doðoše svi k caru.

Then the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Nob; and they came all of them to the king.

12 Tada reèe Saul: èuj sada sine Ahitovov. A on odgovori: evo me, gospodaru.

And Saul said, Hear now, son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.

13 A Saul mu reèe: zašto ste se složili na me ti i sin Jesejev, te si mu dao hljeba i maè, i pitao si Boga za nj, da bi ustao na me da mi zasjeda, kao što se vidi danas?

And Saul said to him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me as a lier-in-wait, as at this day?

14 A Ahimeleh odgovori caru i reèe: a ko je izmeðu svijeh sluga tvojih kao David, vjeran, i zet carev i poslušan tebi i poštovan u kuæi tvojoj?

And Ahimelech answered the king and said, And who is so faithful among all thy servants as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and has access to thy secret council, and is honourable in thy house?

15 Eda li sam sad prvi put pitao Gospoda za nj? Saèuvaj Bože! neka car ne bijedi takim èim sluge svojega niti koga u domu oca mojega; jer nije znao sluga tvoj od svega toga ništa.

Was it to-day that I began to inquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king charge anything to his servant, [nor] to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more.

16 Ali car reèe: poginuæeš, Ahimeleše! i ti i sav dom oca tvojega.

And the king said, Thou shalt certainly die, Ahimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.

17 Tada car reèe slugama koje stajahu pred njim: okrenite se i pogubite sveštenike Gospodnje, jer je i njihova ruka s Davidom, i znajuæi da je pobjegao ne javiše mi. Ali sluge careve ne htješe podignuti ruke svoje da ulože na sveštenike Gospodnje.

And the king said to the couriers that stood about him, Turn and put the priests of Jehovah to death; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not inform me. But the servants of the king were not willing to put forth their hand to fall on the priests of Jehovah.

18 Tada car reèe Doiku: okreni se ti, te uloži na sveštenike. I okrenuvši se Doik Idumejac uloži na sveštenike, i pobi ih onaj dan osamdeset i pet, koji nošahu opleæak laneni.

And the king said to Doeg, Turn thou, and fall on the priests. And Doeg the Edomite turned, and fell on the priests, and put to death that day eighty-five persons who wore the linen ephod.

19 I u Novu, gradu sveštenièkom, isijeèe oštrijem maèem i ljude i žene i djecu i koja sisahu, i volove, i magarce i sitnu stoku oštrijem maèem.

And Nob, the city of the priests, he smote with the edge of the sword, both men and women, infants and sucklings, and oxen, and asses, and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

20 Ali uteèe jedan sin Ahimeleha sina Ahitovova, po imenu Avijatar, i pobježe k Davidu.

And one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped, and fled after David.

21 I Avijatar javi Davidu da je Saul pobio sveštenike Gospodnje.

And Abiathar informed David that Saul had slain Jehovah's priests.

22 A David reèe Avijataru: znao sam onoga dana kad je bio ondje Doik Idumejac da æe zacijelo kazati Saulu; ja sam kriv za sve duše doma oca tvojega.

And David said to Abiathar, I knew it that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would certainly tell Saul: I am accountable for all the lives of thy father's house.

23 Ostani kod mene, ne boj se; jer ko traži moju dušu, tražiæe i tvoju; kod mene æeš biti saèuvan.

Abide with me, fear not; for he that seeks my life seeks thy life; for with me thou art in safe keeping.
