1 Samuelova 25

1 U tom umrije Samuilo i sabra se sav Izrailj, i plakaše za njim, i pogreboše ga u domu njegovu u Rami. A David usta i siðe u pustinju Faransku.

And Samuel died, and all Israel assembled, and bewailed him, and they bury him in his house in Armathaim: and David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Maon.

2 A bijaše jedan èovjek u Maonu, a stoka mu bijaše na Karmilu; i bijaše èovjek vrlo bogat, jer imaše tri tisuæe ovaca i tisuæu koza, i tada strizijaše ovce svoje na Karmilu.

And there was a man in Maon, and his flocks were in Carmel, and [he was] a very great man; and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand she-goats: and he happened to be shearing his flock in Carmel.

3 I bješe ime tomu èovjeku Naval, a ženi mu ime Avigeja; i ona bijaše žena razumna i lijepa, a on bijaše tvrda srca i opak, a bijaše od roda Halevova.

And the man's name [was] Nabal, and his wife's name [was] Abigaia: and his wife [was] of good understanding and very beautiful in person: but the man [was] harsh, and evil in his doings, and the man [was] churlish.

4 I David èu u pustinji da Naval striže ovce.

And David heard in the wilderness, that Nabal the Carmelite was shearing his sheep.

5 I posla David deset momaka, i reèe David momcima: idite na Karmil, i otidite k Navalu, i pozdravite ga od mene.

And David sent ten young men, and he said to the young men, Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and ask him in my name how he is.

6 I recite mu: zdravo! i mir da ti je, i domu tvojemu da je mir, i svemu što imaš da je mir!

And thus shall ye say, May thou and thy house seasonably prosper, and all thine be in prosperity.

7 Èuo sam da strižeš ovce; pastiri su tvoji bivali kod nas, i ne uèinismo im nepravde, i ništa im nije nestalo dokle god bijahu na Karmilu.

And now, behold, I have heard that thy shepherds who were with is in the wilderness are shearing thy sheep, and we hindered them not, neither did we demand any thing from them all the time they were in Carmel.

8 Pitaj sluge svoje, i kazaæe ti. Neka ovi momci naðu milost pred tobom, jer doðosmo u dobar dan. Daj slugama svojim i Davidu sinu svojemu što ti doðe do ruke.

Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Let then thy servants find grace in thine eyes, for we are come on a good day; give we pray thee, whatsoever thy hand may find, to thy son David.

9 I doðoše momci Davidovi, i kazaše Navalu u ime Davidovo sve ove rijeèi, i umuèaše.

So the servants come and speak these words to Nabal, according to all these words in the name of David.

10 A Naval odgovori slugama Davidovijem i reèe: ko je David? i ko je sin Jesejev? Danas ima mnogo sluga koje bježe od svojih gospodara.

And Nabal sprang up, and answered the servants of David, and said, Who [is] David? and who [is] the son of Jessae? Now-a-days there is abundance of servants who depart every one from his master.

11 Eda li æu uzeti hljeb svoj i vodu svoju i meso što sam poklao za ljude koji mi strigu ovce, pa dati ljudima kojih ne znam odakle su?

And shall I take my bread, and my wine, and my beasts that I have slain for my shearers, and shall I give them to men of whom I know not whence they are?

12 Tada se vratiše momci Davidovi svojim putem, vratiše se, i došavši kazaše mu sve ove rijeèi.

So the servants of David turned back, and returned, and came and reported to David according to these words.

13 A David reèe svojim ljudima: pripašite svaki svoj maè. I pripasaše svaki svoj maè, i David pripasa svoj maè; i poðe za Davidom do èetiri stotine ljudi, a dvjesta ostaše kod prtljaga.

And David said to his men, Gird on every man his sword. And they went up after David, about four hundred men: and two hundred abode with the stuff.

14 Ali Avigeji ženi Navalovoj kaza jedan izmeðu sluga njegovijeh govoreæi: evo, David posla iz pustinje poslanike da pozdravi gospodara našega, a on ih otjera.

And one of the servants reported to Abigaia the wife of Nabal, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our lord; but he turned away from them.

15 A ti su nam ljudi bili vrlo dobri, niti nam uèiniše krivo, niti nam èega nesta dokle god bijasmo kod njih u polju.

And the men were very good to us; they did not hinder us, neither did they demand from us any thing all the days that we were with them.

16 Nego nam bijahu zidovi i noæu i danju, dokle god bijasmo kod njih pasuæi ovce.

And when we were in the field, they were as a wall round about us, both by night and by day, all the days that we were with them feeding the flock.

17 Zato sada gledaj i promisli šta æeš èiniti, jer je gotovo zlo gospodaru našemu i svemu domu njegovu; a on je zao èovjek, da mu se ne može govoriti.

And now do thou consider, and see what thou wilt do; for mischief is determined against our lord and against his house; and he [is] a vile character, and one cannot speak to him.

18 Tada Avigeja brže uze dvjesta hljebova i dvije mješine vina i pet ovaca zgotovljenijeh i pet mjerica pržena žita, i sto grozdova suhoga grožða i dvjesta gruda suhih smokava, i metnu na magarce.

And Abigaia hasted, and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five ephahs of fine flour, and one homer of dried grapes, and two hundred cakes of figs, and put them upon asses.

19 I reèe momcima svojim: hajdete naprijed, a ja æu iæi za vama. A mužu svojemu Navalu ništa ne reèe.

And she said to her servants, Go on before me, and behold I come after you: but she told not her husband.

20 I sjedavši na magarca iðaše ispod gore, a gle, David i ljudi njegovi slažahu pred nju, i sukobi se s njima.

And it came to pass when she had mounted her ass and was going down by the covert of the mountain, behold, David and his men came down to meet her, and she met them.

21 A David govoraše: ele sam zaludu èuvao sve što je taj imao u pustinji da mu ništa ne bješe nestalo od svega što ima; jer mi vrati zlo za dobro.

And David said, Perhaps I have kept all his possessions in the wilderness that he should wrong me, and we did not order the taking anything of all his goods; yet he has rewarded me evil for good.

22 To neka uèini Bog neprijateljima Davidovijem i to neka doda, ako mu do zore od svega što ima ostavim i ono što mokri uza zid.

So God do to David and more also, if I leave one male of all that belong to Nabal until the morning.

23 A kad Avigeja ugleda Davida, brže siðe s magarca, i pade pred Davidom na lice svoje i pokloni se do zemlje;

And Abigaia saw David, and she hasted and alighted from her ass; and she felt before David on her face, and did obeisance to him, [bowing] to the ground

24 I padnuvši mu k nogama reèe: na meni, gospodaru, neka bude ta krivica; ali da progovori sluškinja tvoja tebi, i èuj rijeèi sluškinje svoje.

[even] to his feet, and said, On me, my lord, be my wrong: let, I pray thee, thy servant speak in thine ears, and hear thou the words of thy servant.

25 Neka gospodar moj ne gleda na toga nevaljaloga èovjeka, Navala, jer je kao ime što mu je; Naval mu je ime, i bezumlje je kod njega. A ja sluškinja tvoja nijesam vidjela momaka gospodara svojega, koje si slao.

Let not my lord, I pray thee, take to heart this pestilent man, for according to his name, so is he; Nabal [is] his name, and folly [is] with him: but I thy handmaid saw not the servants of my lord whom thou didst send.

26 Zato sada, gospodaru, tako živ bio Gospod i tako živa bila duša tvoja, Gospod ti ne da da ideš na krv i da se osvetiš svojom rukom. Zato sada neka bude neprijateljima tvojim kao Navalu i svjema koji traže zla gospodaru mojemu.

And now, my lord, [as] the Lord lives, and thy soul lives, as the Lord has kept thee from coming against innocent blood, and from executing vengeance for thyself, now therefore let thine enemies, and those that seek evil against my lord, become as Nabal.

27 Evo dar što je donijela sluškinja gospodaru svojemu, da se da momcima koji idu za gospodarom mojim.

And now accept this token of goodwill, which thy servant has brought to my lord, and thou shalt give it to the servants that wait on my lord.

28 Oprosti sluškinji svojoj krivicu; jer æe Gospod zacijelo naèiniti tvrdu kuæu gospodaru mojemu; jer ratove Gospodnje vodi gospodar moj i nije se našlo zlo na tebi nikad tvoga vijeka.

Remove, I pray thee, the trespass of thy servant; for the Lord will surely make for my lord a sure house, for the Lord fights the battles of my lord, and there shall no evil be ever found in thee.

29 I da ustane èovjek da te goni i traži dušu tvoju, duša æe gospodara mojega biti vezana u svežnju živijeh kod Gospoda Boga tvojega, a duše æe neprijatelja tvojih baciti kao iz praæe.

And [if] a man shall rise up persecuting thee and seeking thy life, yet shall the life of my lord be bound up in the bundle of life with the Lord God, and thou shalt whirl the life of thine enemies [as] in the midst of a sling.

30 I kad Gospod uèini gospodaru mojemu svako dobro koje ti je obrekao, i postavi te voðem Izrailju,

And it shall be when the Lord shall have wrought for my lord all the good things he has spoken concerning thee, and shall appoint thee to be ruler over Israel;

31 Neæe ti biti spoticanja ni sablazni srcu gospodara mojega da je prolio krv ni za što i da se sam osvetio gospodar moj. I kad uèini Gospod dobro gospodaru mojemu, opomenuæeš se sluškinje svoje.

then this shall not be an abomination and offence to my lord, to have shed innocent blood without cause, and for my lord to have avenged himself: and so may the Lord do good to my lord, and thou shalt remember thine handmaid to do her good.

32 Tada reèe David Avigeji: da je blagosloven Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji te danas posla meni na susret!

And David said to Abigaia, Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel, who sent thee this very day to meet me:

33 I da su blagoslovene rijeèi tvoje, i ti da si blagoslovena, koja me odvrati danas da ne idem na krv i osvetim se svojom rukom.

and blessed [be] thy conduct, and blessed [be] thou, who hast hindered me this very day from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself.

34 Doista, tako živ bio Gospod Bog Izrailjev, koji mi ne dade da ti uèinim zlo, da mi nijesi brže izašla na susret, ne bi ostalo Navalu do zore ni ono što uza zid mokri.

But surely as the Lord God of Israel lives, who hindered me this day from doing thee harm, if thou hadst not hasted and come to meet me, then I said, There shall [surely] not be left to Nabal till the morning one male.

35 I primi David iz ruke njezine što mu bješe donijela, i reèe joj: idi s mirom kuæi svojoj; eto, poslušah te, i pogledah na te.

And David took of her hand all that she brought to him, and said to her, Go in peace to thy house: see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and accepted thy petition.

36 Potom se Avigeja vrati k Navalu; a gle, kod njega gozba u kuæi, kao carska gozba, i srce Navalu bješe veselo, i bijaše pijan vrlo. Zato mu ona ne reèe ništa do jutra.

And Abigaia came to Nabal: and, behold, he had a banquet in this house, as the banquet of a king, and the heart of Nabal [was] merry within him, and he [was] very drunken: and she told him nothing great or small till the morning light.

37 A ujutru, kad se Naval otrijezni, kaza mu žena sve ovo; a u njemu obamrije srce njegovo, i on posta kao kamen.

And it came to pass in the morning, when Nabal recovered from his wine, his wife told him these words; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

38 A kad proðe do deset dana, udari Gospod Navala, te umrije.

And it came to pass after about ten days, that the Lord smote Nabal, and he died.

39 A kad David èu da je umro Naval, reèe: da je blagosloven Gospod, koji osveti sramotu moju od Navala, i zadrža slugu svojega oda zla, a obrati Gospod Navalu na glavu zloæu njegovu. Potom posla David i poruèi Avigeji da æe je uzeti za ženu.

And David heard it and said, Blessed [be] the Lord, who has judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and has delivered his servant from the power of evil; and the Lord has returned the mischief of Nabal upon his own head. And David sent and spoke concerning Abigaia, to take her to himself for a wife.

40 I sluge Davidove doðoše k Avigeji na Karmil, i rekoše joj govoreæi: David nas posla k tebi da te uzme za ženu.

So the servants of David came to Abigaia to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying, David has sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.

41 A ona usta i pokloni se licem do zemlje, i reèe: evo sluškinje tvoje, da služi i da pere noge slugama gospodara svojega.

And she arose, and did reverence with her face to the earth, and said, Behold, thy servant [is] for an handmaid to wash the feet of thy servants.

42 Potom brže usta Avigeja, i sjede na magarca, i pet djevojaka njezinijeh poðe za njom, i otide za poslanicima Davidovijem, i posta mu žena.

And Abigaia arose, and mounted her ass, and five damsels followed her: and she went after the servants of David, and became his wife.

43 A David uze i Ahinoamu iz Jezraela, i obje mu bjehu žene.

And David took Achinaam out of Jezrael, and they were both his wives.

44 Jer Saul dade Mihalu kæer svoju, ženu Davidovu, Faltiju sinu Laisovu iz Galima.

And Saul gave Melchol his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Amis who was of Romma.
