1 Samuelova 23
1 Tada javiše Davidu govoreæi: evo Filisteji udariše na Keilu, i haraju gumna.
And it was told David, saying, behold, the Philistines war in Keila, and they rob, they trample on the threshing-floors.
2 I upita David Gospoda govoreæi: hoæu li iæi i udariti na te Filisteje? A Gospod reèe Davidu: idi, i pobiæeš Filisteje i izbaviti Keilu.
And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the Lord said, Go, and thou shalt smite these Philistines, and shalt save Keila.
3 A Davidu rekoše ljudi njegovi: evo nas je strah ovdje u Judinoj zemlji, a šta æe biti kad poðemo u Keilu na oko Filistejski.
And the men of David said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judea; and how shall it be if we go to Keila? Shall we go after the spoils of the Philistines?
4 Zato David opet upita Gospoda, a Gospod mu odgovori i reèe: ustani, idi u Keilu, jer æu ja predati Filisteje u ruke tvoje.
And David enquired yet again of the Lord; and the Lord answered him, and said to him, Arise and go down to Keila, for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hands.
5 Tada otide David sa svojim ljudima u Keilu, i udari na Filisteje, i otjera im stoku, i pobi ih ljuto; tako izbavi David stanovnike Keilske.
So David and his men with him went to Keila, and fought with the Philistines; and they fled from before him, and he carried off their cattle, and smote them with a great slaughter, and David rescued the inhabitants of Keila.
6 A kad Avijatar sin Ahimelehov pobježe k Davidu u Keilu, donese sobom opleæak.
And it came to pass when Abiathar the son of Achimelech fled to David, that he went down with David to Keila, having and ephod in his hand.
7 Potom javiše Saulu da je David došao u Keilu; i reèe Saul: dao ga je Bog u moje ruke, jer se zatvorio ušavši u grad, koji ima vrata i prijevornice.
And it was told Saul that David was come to Keila: and Saul said, God has sold him into my hands, for he is shut up, having entered into a city that has gates and bars.
8 I sazva Saul sav narod na vojsku da ide na Keilu i opkoli Davida i ljude njegove.
And Saul charged all the people to go down to war to Keila, to besiege David and his men.
9 Ali David doznavši da mu Saul zlo kuje, reèe Avijataru svešteniku: uzmi na se opleæak.
And David knew that Saul spoke openly of mischief against him: and David said to Abiathar the priest, Bring the ephod of the Lord.
10 I reèe David: Gospode Bože Izrailjev! èuo je sluga tvoj da se Saul sprema da doðe na Keilu da raskopa grad mene radi.
And David said, Lord God of Israel, thy servant has indeed heard, that Saul seeks to come against Keila to destroy the city on my account.
11 Hoæe li me Keiljani predati u njegove ruke? hoæe li doæi Saul kao što je èuo sluga tvoj? Gospode Bože Izrailjev! kaži sluzi svojemu. A Gospod odgovori: doæi æe.
Will [the place] be shut up? And now will Saul come down, as thy servant has heard? Lord God of Israel, tell thy servant.
12 Opet reèe David: Keiljani hoæe li predati mene i moje ljude u ruke Saulove? A Gospod odgovori: predaæe.
And the Lord said, It will be shut up.
13 Tada se David podiže sa svojim ljudima, oko šest stotina ljudi, i otidoše iz Keile, i idoše kuda mogoše. A kad Saulu javiše da je David pobjegao iz Keile, tada on ne htje iæi.
And David arose, and the men with him, in number about four hundred, and they went forth from Keila, and went whithersoever they could go: and it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keila, and he forbore to come.
14 A David se bavljaše u pustinji po tvrdijem mjestima, i namjesti se na jednom brdu u pustinji Zifu. A Saul ga tražaše jednako, ali ga Gospod ne dade u njegove ruke.
And he dwelt in Maserem in the wilderness, in the narrow [passes]; and dwelt in the wilderness in mount Ziph, in the dry country. And Saul sought him continually, but the Lord delivered him not into his hands.
15 I David videæi da je Saul izašao te traži dušu njegovu, osta u pustinji Zifu, u šumi.
And David perceived that Saul went forth to seek David; and David was in the dry mountain in the New Ziph.
16 A Jonatan sin Saulov podiže se i doðe k Davidu u šumu, i ukrijepi mu ruku u Gospodu;
And Jonathan son of Saul rose, and went to David to Caene, and strengthened his hands in the Lord.
17 I reèe mu: ne boj se, jer te neæe stignuti ruka cara Saula oca mojega; nego æeš carovati nad Izrailjem, a ja æu biti drugi za tobom; i Saul otac moj zna to.
And he said to him, Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be second to thee; and Saul my father knows it.
18 I uèiniše njih dvojica vjeru pred Gospodom; i David osta u šumi, a Jonatan otide kuæi svojoj.
So they both made a covenant before the Lord; and David dwelt in Caene, and Jonathan went to his home.
19 Tada doðoše Zifeji k Saulu u Gavaju, i rekoše: ne krije li se David kod nas po tvrdijem mjestima u šumi na brdu Eheli nadesno od Gesimona?
And the Ziphites came up out of the dry country to Saul to the hill, saying, Behold, is not David hidden with us in Messara, in the narrows in Caene in the hill of Echela, which is on the right of Jessaemon?
20 Sada dakle po svoj želji duše svoje, care, izidi, a naše æe biti da ga predamo u ruke caru.
And now [according to] all the king's desire to come down, let him come down to us; they have shut him up into the hands of the king.
21 A Saul reèe: Gospod da vas blagoslovi, što me požaliste.
And Saul said to them, Blessed [be] ye of the Lord, for ye have been grieved on my account.
22 Idite sada i doznajte još bolje i razberite i promotrite gdje se sakrio i ko ga je ondje vidio; jer mi kažu da je vrlo lukav.
Go, I pray you, and make preparations yet, and notice his place where his foot shall be, quickly, in that place which ye spoke of, lest by any means he should deal craftily.
23 Promotrite i vidite sva mjesta gdje se krije, pa opet doðite k meni kad dobro doznate, i ja æu poæi s vama; i ako bude u zemlji, tražiæu ga po svijem tisuæama Judinijem.
Take notice, then, and learn, and I will go with you; and it shall come to pass that if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Juda.
24 Tada ustaše i otidoše u Zif prije Saula; a David i ljudi njegovi bijahu u pustinji Maonu u ravnici nadesno od Gesimona.
And the Ziphites arose, and went before Saul: and David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, westward, to the right of Jessaemon.
25 I Saul izide sa svojim ljudima da ga traži; a Davidu javiše, te on siðe sa stijene i stade u pustinji Maonu. A Saul kad to èu, otide za Davidom u pustinju Maon.
And Saul and his men went to seek him: and they brought word to David, and he went down to the rock that was in the wilderness of Maon: and Saul heard, and followed after David to the wilderness of Maon.
26 I Saul iðaše jednom stranom planine, a David sa svojim ljudima drugom stranom planine; i David hiæaše da uteèe Saulu, jer Saul sa svojim ljudima opkoljavaše Davida i njegove ljude da ih pohvata.
And Saul and his men go on one side of the mountain, and David and his men are on the other side of the mountain: and David was hiding himself to escape from Saul: and Saul and his men encamped against David and his men, in order to take them.
27 U tom doðe glasnik Saulu govoreæi: brže hodi; jer Filisteji udariše na zemlju.
And there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste thee, and come hither, for the Philistines have invaded the land.
28 Tada se vrati Saul ne tjerajuæi dalje Davida, i otide pred Filisteje. Otuda se prozva ono mjesto Sela-Amalekot.
So Saul returned from following after David, and went to meet the Philistines: therefore that place was called The divided Rock.
29 A David otišavši odande stade na tvrdijem mjestima Engadskim.
And David rose up from thence, and dwelt in the narrow passes of Engaddi.
