< 2 Samuelova 12 >
1 I posla Gospod Natana k Davidu; i on došav k njemu reèe mu: u jednom gradu bijahu dva èovjeka, jedan bogat a drugi siromah.
And the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.
2 Bogati imaše ovaca i goveda vrlo mnogo;
The rich man had very many flocks and herds:
3 A siromah nemaše ništa do jednu malu ovèicu, koju bješe kupio, i hranjaše je, te odraste uza nj i uz djecu njegovu, i jeðaše od njegova zalogaja, i iz njegove èaše pijaše, i na krilu mu spavaše, i bijaše mu kao kæi.
But the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it fed of his own food, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was to him as a daughter.
4 A doðe putnik k bogatome èovjeku, a njemu bi žao uzeti iz svojih ovaca ili goveda da zgotovi putniku koji doðe k njemu; nego uze ovcu onoga siromaha, i zgotovi je èovjeku, koji doðe k njemu.
And there came a traveller to the rich man, and he was not willing to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to prepare for the wayfaring man that had come to him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and prepared it for the man that had come to him.
5 Tada se David vrlo razgnjevi na onoga èovjeka, i reèe Natanu: tako živ bio Gospod, zaslužio je smrt onaj koji je to uèinio.
And David’s anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:
6 I ovcu neka plati uèetvoro, što je to uèinio i nije mu žao bilo.
And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.
7 Tada reèe Natan Davidu: ti si taj. Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja sam te pomazao za cara nad Izrailjem, i ja sam te izbavio iz ruku Saulovijeh.
And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from the hand of Saul;
8 I dao sam ti dom gospodara tvojega, i žene gospodara tvojega na krilo tvoje, dao sam ti dom Izrailjev i Judin; i ako je malo, dodao bih ti to i to.
And I gave thee thy master’s house, and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given to thee such and such things.
9 Zašto si prezreo rijeè Gospodnju èineæi što njemu nije po volji? Uriju Hetejina ubio si maèem i uzeo si ženu njegovu sebi za ženu, a njega si ubio maèem sinova Amonovijeh.
Why hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
10 Zato neæe se odmaæi maè od doma tvojega dovijeka, što si me prezreo i uzeo ženu Urije Hetejina da ti bude žena.
Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
11 Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na te zlo iz doma tvojega, i uzeæu žene tvoje na tvoje oèi, i daæu ih bližnjemu tvojemu, te æe spavati sa ženama tvojim na vidiku svakomu.
Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes, and give them to thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
12 Jer ti si uèinio tajno, ali æu ja ovo uèiniti pred svijem Izrailjem i svakomu na vidiku.
For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.
13 Tada reèe David Natanu: sagriješih Gospodu. A Natan reèe Davidu: i Gospod je pronio grijeh tvoj; neæeš umrijeti.
And David said to Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said to David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.
14 Ali što si tijem djelom dao priliku neprijateljima Gospodnjim da hule, zato æe ti umrijeti sin koji ti se rodio.
But, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born to thee shall surely die.
15 Potom Natan otide svojoj kuæi. A Gospod udari dijete koje rodi žena Urijina Davidu, te se razbolje na smrt.
And Nathan departed to his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
16 I David se moljaše Bogu za dijete, i pošæaše se David, i došavši ležaše preko noæ na zemlji.
David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.
17 I starješine doma njegova ustaše oko njega da ga podignu sa zemlje, ali on ne htje, niti jede što s njima.
And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.
18 A kad bi sedmi dan, umrije dijete; i ne smijahu sluge Davidove javiti mu da je dijete umrlo, jer govorahu: evo, dok dijete bijaše živo, govorasmo mu, pa nas ne htje poslušati; a kako æemo mu kazati: umrlo je dijete? hoæe ga ucvijeliti.
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how will he then be grieved, if we tell him that the child is dead?
19 A David videæi gdje sluge njegove šapæu meðu sobom, dosjeti se da je umrlo dijete; i reèe David slugama svojim: je li umrlo dijete? A oni rekoše: umrlo je.
But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said to his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.
20 Tada David usta sa zemlje, i umi se, i namaza se i preobuèe se; i otide u dom Gospodnji, i pokloni se. Potom opet doðe kuæi svojoj, i zaiska da mu donesu da jede; i jede.
Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set food before him, and he ate.
21 A sluge njegove rekoše mu: šta to radiš? dok bijaše dijete živo, postio si i plakao; a kad umrije dijete, ustao si i jedeš.
Then said his servants to him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while he was alive; but after the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.
22 A on reèe: dok dijete bijaše živo, postio sam i plakao, jer govorah: ko zna, može se smilovati Gospod na me da dijete ostane živo.
And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
23 A sada umrlo je; što bih postio? mogu li ga povratiti? ja æu otiæi k njemu, ali on neæe se vratiti k meni.
But now he is dead, why should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
24 Potom David utješi Vitsaveju ženu svoju, i otide k njoj, i leže s njom. I ona rodi sina, kojemu nadje ime Solomun. I mio bješe Gospodu.
And David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her: and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him.
25 I posla Natana proroka, te mu nadje ime Jedidija, radi Gospoda.
And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD.
26 A Joav bijuæi Ravu sinova Amonovih, uze carski grad.
And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
27 I posla poslanike k Davidu, i reèe: bih Ravu, i uzeh grad na vodi.
And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.
28 Nego sada skupi ostali narod, i stani u oko prema gradu, i uzmi ga, da ga ne bih ja uzeo i moje se ime spominjalo na njemu.
Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name.
29 I David skupiv sav narod otide na Ravu, i udari na nju, i uze je.
And David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
30 I uze caru njihovu s glave krunu, u kojoj bješe talanat zlata, s dragim kamenjem, i metnuše je na glavu Davidu, i odnese iz grada plijen vrlo velik.
And he took their king’s crown from off his head, the weight of which was a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was set on David’s head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.
31 A narod koji bijaše u njemu izvede i metnu ih pod pile i pod brane gvozdene i pod sjekire gvozdene, i sagna ih u peæi gdje se opeke peku. I tako uèini svijem gradovima sinova Amonovijeh. Potom se vrati David sa svijem narodom u Jerusalim.
And he brought forth the people that were in it, and put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brickkiln: and thus he did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
