< 2 Samuelova 1 >

1 A po smrti Saulovoj, kad se David vrati pobivši Amalike i osta u Siklagu dva dana,
And it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had abode two days in Ziklag;
2 Treæega dana, gle, doðe jedan iz vojske Saulove razdrtijeh haljina i glave posute prahom; i došav k Davidu pade na zemlju i pokloni se.
it came to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
3 I reèe mu David: otkuda ideš? A on mu reèe: iz okola Izrailjskoga utekoh.
And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
4 A David mu reèe: šta bi? kaži mi. A on reèe: narod pobježe iz boja; i mnogo naroda pade i izgibe, pogibe i Saul i sin mu Jonatan.
And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, The people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.
5 A David reèe momku koji mu donese glas: kako znaš da je poginuo Saul i sin mu Jonatan?
And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?
6 A momak koji mu donese glas reèe: sluèajno doðoh na goru Gelvuju, a to se Saul naslonio na koplje svoje, kola i konjici približavahu se k njemu.
And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and the horsemen followed hard after him.
7 A on obazrevši se natrag ugleda me, pa me viknu, a ja mu rekoh: evo me.
And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here am I.
8 A on mi reèe: ko si? A ja mu rekoh: Amalik sam.
And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
9 A on mi reèe: pristupi k meni i ubij me; jer me obuzeše muke, a još je sasvijem duša u meni.
And he said unto me, Stand, I pray thee, beside me, and slay me; for anguish hath taken hold of me, because my life is yet whole in me.
10 I pristupih k njemu i ubih ga, jer sam znao da neæe ostati živ pošto pade; i uzeh vijenac carski koji mu bješe na glavi i grivnu koja mu bješe na ruci, i evo donesoh gospodaru svojemu.
So I stood beside him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord.
11 Tada David zgrabi haljine na sebi i razdrije ih; tako i svi ljudi koji bijahu s njim.
Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:
12 I ridaše i plakaše, i postiše do veèera za Saulom i za Jonatanom sinom njegovijem i za narodom Gospodnjim i za domom Izrailjevijem što izgiboše od maèa.
and they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
13 I reèe David momku koji mu donese glas: odakle si? A on reèe: ja sam sin jednoga došljaka Amalika.
And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite.
14 Reèe mu David: kako te nije bilo strah podiæi ruku svoju i ubiti pomazanika Gospodnjega?
And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to put forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah’s anointed?
15 I dozva David jednoga izmeðu momaka svojih i reèe: hodi, pogubi ga. A on ga udari, te umrije.
And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him, so that he died.
16 I reèe mu David: krv tvoja na tvoju glavu; jer tvoja usta svjedoèiše na te govoreæi: ja sam ubio pomazanika Gospodnjega.
And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah’s anointed.
17 Tada David narica ovako za Saulom i za Jonatanom sinom njegovijem,
And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son
18 I izgovori, da bi se uèili sinovi Judini luku, i eto je napisano u knjizi istinitoga:
(and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jashar):
19 Diko Izrailjeva! na tvojim visinama pobijeni su; kako padoše junaci?
Thy glory, O Israel, is slain upon thy high places! How are the mighty fallen!
20 Ne kazujte u Gatu, i ne razglašujte po ulicama Askalonskim, da se ne vesele kæeri Filistejske i da ne igraju kæeri neobrezanijeh.
Tell it not in Gath, Publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 Gore Gelvujske! ne padala rosa ni dažd na vas, i ne rodilo polje za prinos, jer je tu baèen štit s junaka, štit Saulov, kao da nije pomazan uljem.
Ye mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of offerings: For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.
22 Bez krvi pobijenijeh i bez masti od junaka nije se vraæao luk Jonatanov, niti je maè Saulov dolazio natrag prazan.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan turned not back, And the sword of Saul returned not empty.
23 Saul i Jonatan, mili i dragi za života, ni na smrti se ne rastaviše; lakši od orlova bijahu.
Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they were not divided: They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions.
24 Kæeri Izrailjeve! plaèite za Saulom, koji vas je oblaèio u skerlet lijepo, i kitio vas zlatnijem zakladima po haljinama vašim.
Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, Who clothed you in scarlet delicately, Who put ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
25 Kako padoše junaci u boju! Jonatan kako pogibe na tvojim visinama!
How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places.
26 Žao mi je za tobom, brate Jonatane; bio si mi mio vrlo; veæa mi je bila ljubav tvoja od ljubavi ženske.
I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: Very pleasant hast thou been unto me: Thy love to me was wonderful, Passing the love of women.
27 Kako padoše junaci, i propade oružje ubojito!
How are the mighty fallen, And the weapons of war perished!
