1 Samuelova 9
1 A bješe jedan èovjek od plemena Venijaminova, kojemu ime bješe Kis, sin Avila, sina Serora, sina Vehorata, sina Afije, sina jednoga èovjeka od plemena Venijaminova, hrabar junak.
There was nowe a man of Beniamin, mightie in power named Kish, the sonne of Abiel, the sonne of Zeror, the sonne of Bechorath, the sonne of Aphiah, the sonne of a man of Iemini.
2 On imaše sina po imenu Saula, koji bješe mlad i lijep da ne bješe ljepšega od njega meðu sinovima Izrailjevijem, a glavom bješe viši od svega naroda.
And he had a sonne called Saul, a goodly yong man and a faire: so that among the children of Israel there was none goodlier then he: from the shoulders vpwarde he was hier then any of the people.
3 A Kisu ocu Saulovu nesta magarica, pa reèe Kis Saulu sinu svojemu: uzmi sa sobom jednoga momka, pa ustani i idi te traži magarice.
And the asses of Kish Sauls father were lost: therefore Kish said to Saul his sonne, Take nowe one of the seruants with thee, and arise, goe, and seeke the asses.
4 I on proðe goru Jefremovu, i proðe zemlju Salisku; ali ne naðoše; pa proðoše i zemlju Salimsku, i ne bješe ih; pa proðoše i zemlju Venijaminovu, i ne naðoše.
So he passed through mount Ephraim, and went through the lande of Shalishah, but they found them not. Then they went through the land of Shalim, and there they were not: he went also through ye land of Iemini, but they found the not.
5 A kad doðoše u zemlju Sufsku, reèe Saul momku svojemu koji bijaše s njim: hajde da se vratimo, da se ne bi otac okanio magarica i zabrinuo se za nas.
When they came to the lande of Zuph, Saul saide vnto his seruant that was with him, Come and let vs returne, lest my father leaue the care of asses, and take thought for vs.
6 A on mu reèe: evo, u ovom gradu ima èovjek Božji, kojega veoma poštuju; što god kaže sve se zbiva; hajdemo k njemu, može biti da æe nas uputiti kuda bismo išli.
And he said vnto him, Behold nowe, in this citie is a man of God, and he is an honorable man: all that he saith commeth to passe: let vs nowe goe thither, if so be that he can shewe vs what way we may goe.
7 A Saul reèe momku svojemu: hajde da idemo; ali šta æemo odnijeti èovjeku? jer nam je hljeba nestalo u torbama, a dara nemamo da odnesemo èovjeku Božijemu. Šta imamo?
Then saide Saul to his seruant, Well then, let vs goe: but what shall we bring vnto the man? For the bread is spent in our vessels, and there is no present to bring to the man of God: what haue we?
8 A momak opet odgovarajuæi reèe Saulu: eto u mene èetvrt sikla srebra; to da dam èovjeku Božijemu da nas uputi.
And the seruant answered Saul againe, and said, Beholde, I haue founde about me the fourth part of a shekell of siluer: that will I giue the man of God, to tell vs our way.
9 A u staro vrijeme ko bi išao da pita Boga govoraše: hajde da idemo k vidiocu. Jer ko se sada zove prorok u staro se vrijeme zvaše vidjelac.
(Beforetime in Israel when a man went to seeke an answere of God, thus he spake, Come, and let vs goe to the Seer: for he that is called nowe a Prophet, was in the olde time called a Seer)
10 I Saul reèe momku svojemu: dobro veliš; hajde da idemo. I poðoše u grad gdje bješe èovjek Božji.
Then saide Saul to his seruant, Well saide, come, let vs goe: so they went into the citie where the man of God was.
11 I kad iðahu uz brdo gradsko, sretoše djevojke koje izlažahu da zahvataju vodu, pa im rekoše: je li tu vidjelac?
And as they were going vp the hie way to the citie, they found maydes that came out to draw water, and said vnto them, Is there here a Seer?
12 A one odgovarajuæi rekoše: jest, eto pred tobom; pohitaj, jer je danas došao u grad, jer danas narod ima žrtvu na gori.
And they answered them, and said, Yea: loe, he is before you: make haste nowe, for he came this day to the citie: for there is an offering of the people this day in the hie place.
13 Kako uðete u grad, naæi æete ga prije nego poðe na goru da jede; jer narod neæe jesti dokle on ne doðe, jer on treba da blagoslovi žrtvu, pa onda æe zvanice jesti; zato idite, jer æete ga sada naæi.
When ye shall come into the citie, ye shall finde him straightway yet he come vp to the hie place to eate: for the people will not eate vntill he come, because he will blesse the sacrifice: and then eate they that be bidden to the feast: nowe therefore goe vp: for euen now shall ye find him.
14 I otidoše u grad; a kad doðoše usred grada, gle, Samuilo polazeæi na goru srete ih.
Then they went vp into the citie, and when they were come into the middes of the citie, Samuel came out against them, to goe vp to the hie place.
15 A Gospod bješe objavio Samuilu dan prije nego doðe Saul, rekavši:
But the Lord had reueiled to Samuel secretly (a day before Saul came) saying,
16 Sjutra u ovo doba poslaæu k tebi jednoga èovjeka iz zemlje Venijaminove, njega pomaži da bude voð narodu mojemu Izrailju, i on æe izbaviti moj narod iz ruku Filistejskih. Jer pogledah na narod svoj, jer vika njegova doðe do mene.
To morow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Beniamin: him shalt thou anoint to be gouernour ouer my people Israel, that he may saue my people out of the hands of the Philistims: for I haue looked vpon my people, and their crie is come vnto me.
17 I kad Samuilo ugleda Saula, reèe mu Gospod: eto èovjeka za kojega ti rekoh; taj æe vladati mojim narodom.
When Samuel therefore sawe Saul, the Lord answered him, See, this is the man whom I spake to thee of, he shall rule my people.
18 I Saul pristupi k Samuilu na vratima, i reèe: kaži mi, gdje je kuæa vidioèeva?
Then went Saul to Samuel in the middes of the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the Seers house is.
19 A Samuilo odgovori Saulu i reèe: ja sam vidjelac. Hajde preda mnom na goru, i danas æete sa mnom jesti; a sjutra æu te otpustiti, i što ti je god u srcu, kazaæu ti.
And Samuel answered Saul, and saide, I am the Seer: goe vp before me vnto the hie place: for ye shall eate with me to day. and to morowe I will let thee goe, and will tell thee all that is in thine heart.
20 A za magarice, kojih ti je nestalo prije tri dana, ne brini se; jer su se našle. I èije æe biti sve što je najbolje u Izrailju? eda li ne tvoje i svega doma oca tvojega?
And as for thine asses that were lost three dayes ago, care not for them: for they are founde. and on whom is set all the desire of Israel? is it not vpon thee and on all thy fathers house?
21 A Saul odgovori i reèe: nijesam li od plemena Venijaminova, najmanjega plemena Izrailjeva, i dom moj najmanji izmeðu svijeh domova plemena Venijaminova? što mi dakle govoriš tako?
But Saul answered, and said, Am not I the sonne of Iemini of the smallest tribe of Israel? and my familie is the least of all the families of the tribe of Beniamin. Wherefore then speakest thou so to me?
22 A Samuilo uze Saula i njegova momka, i odvede ih u sobu, i posadi ih u zaèelje meðu zvanicama kojih bješe do trideset ljudi.
And Samuel tooke Saul and his seruant, and brought them into the chamber, and made them sit in the chiefest place among them that were bidden: which were about thirtie persons.
23 I Samuilo reèe kuharu: donesi dio koji ti dadoh i za koji ti rekoh: ostavi ga kod sebe.
And Samuel saide vnto the cooke, Bring foorth the portion which I gaue thee, and whereof I said vnto thee, Keepe it with thee.
24 Tada donese kuhar pleæe i što bješe na njemu; a Samuilo ga metnu pred Saula, i reèe: evo što je ostalo, uzmi preda se, te jedi, jer je saèuvano doslije za tebe, kad rekoh: pozvao sam narod. Tako jede Saul sa Samuilom onaj dan.
And the cooke tooke vp the shoulder, and that which was vpon it, and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, Beholde, that which is left, set it before thee and eate: for hitherto hath it bene kept for thee, saying, Also I haue called the people. So Saul did eate with Samuel that day.
25 Potom siðoše s gore u grad, i Samuilo se razgovara sa Saulom na krovu.
And when they were come downe from the hie place into the citie, he communed with Saul vpon the top of the house.
26 A ujutru uraniše, i kad svitaše, zovnu Samuilo Saula na krov, i reèe mu: digni se, da te otpustim. I kad se diže Saul, izidoše obojica, on i Samuilo.
And when they arose early about ye spring of the day, Samuel called Saul to the top of the house, saying, Vp, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out, both he, and Samuel.
27 I kad doðoše na kraj grada, reèe Samuilo Saulu: reci momku neka ide naprijed i on proðe naprijed a ti stani malo da ti javim rijeè Božiju.
And when they were come downe to the ende of the citie, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the seruant goe before vs, (and he went) but stand thou still nowe, that I may shewe thee the worde of God.
