2 Samuelova 19
1 I javiše Joavu: evo car plaèe i tuži za Avesalomom.
And they brought Joab word, saying, Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Abessalom.
2 I pobjeda onoga dana pretvori se u žalost svemu narodu, jer narod èu u onaj dan gdje govore: žali car sina svojega.
And the victory was turned that day into mourning to all the people, for the people heard say that day, The king grieves after his son.
3 I narod se u onaj dan krijaše ulazeæi u grad kao što se krije narod koji se stidi kad pobjegne iz boja.
And the people stole away that day to go into the city, as people steal away when they are ashamed as they flee in the battle.
4 A car pokri lice svoje; i vikaše iza glasa: sine moj Avesalome! Avesalome sine moj, sine moj!
And the king hid his face: and the king cried with a loud voice, My son Abessalom! Abessalom my son!
5 Tada uðe Joav k caru u kuæu, i reèe: posramio si danas sve sluge svoje, koje ti danas dušu saèuvaše, i sinovima tvojim i kæerima tvojim i ženama tvojim i inoèama tvojim.
And Joab went in to the king, into the house, and said, You have this day shamed the faces of all your servants that have delivered you this day, and [have saved] the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and of your concubines,
6 Jer ljubiš one koji mrze na te, a mrziš na one koji te ljube; jer si pokazao danas da ne mariš za vojvode i za sluge; i vidim danas da bi ti milo bilo da je Avesalom živ a mi svi da smo izginuli.
forasmuch as you love them that hate you, and hate them that love you; and you have this day declared, that your princes and your servants are nothing [in your sight]: for I know this day, that if Abessalom were alive, [and] all of us dead today, then it would have been right in your sight.
7 Zato ustani sada, i izidi i progovori lijepo slugama svojim; jer zaklinjem se Gospodom, ako ne izideš, neæe nijedan ostati kod tebe ovu noæ, i to æe biti gore po te negoli sva zla koja su te snalazila od mladosti tvoje do sada.
And now arise, and go forth, and speak comfortably to your servants; for I have sworn by the Lord, that unless you will go forth today, there shall not a man remain with you this night: and know for yourself, this thing [will] indeed [be] evil to you beyond all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now.
8 Tada usta car, i sjede na vratima; i kazaše svemu narodu govoreæi: evo, sjedi car na vratima. I doðe sav narod pred cara. Ali Izrailjci bjehu pobjegli, svak u svoj šator.
Then the king arose, and sat in the gate: and all the people reported, saying, Behold, the king sits in the gate. And all the people went in before the king to the gate; for Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9 I sav se narod svaðaše meðu sobom po svijem plemenima Izrailjevim govoreæi: car nas je izbavio iz ruku neprijatelja naših, i izbavio nas je iz ruku Filistejskih; a sada je pobjegao iz zemlje od Avesaloma.
And all the people disputed among all the tribes of Israel, saying, King David delivered us from all our enemies, and he rescued us from the hand of the Philistines: and now he has fled from the land, and from his kingdom, and from Abessalom.
10 Avesalom pak, kojega pomazasmo za cara nad sobom, pogibe u boju. Sada dakle zašto oklijevate te ne dovedete natrag cara?
And Abessalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle: and now why are you silent about bringing back the king? And the word of all Israel came to the king.
11 Zato car David posla k Sadoku i Avijataru sveštenicima i poruèi: govorite starješinama Judinijem i recite: zašto vi da budete pošljednji koji æe cara natrag dovesti u kuæu njegovu? Jer govor svega Izrailja doðe do cara u kuæu njegovu.
And king David sent to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Israel, saying, Why are you the last to bring back the king to his house? whereas the word of all Israel is come to the king to his house.
12 Vi ste moja braæa, vi ste kost moja i tijelo moje. Zašto biste dakle bili pošljednji koji æe natrag dovesti cara?
You [are] my brethren, you [are] my bones and my flesh: why are you the last to bring back the king to his house?
13 Recite i Amasi: nijesi li kost moja i tijelo moje? Bog neka mi uèini tako i tako neka doda, ako mi ne budeš vojvoda dok si živ na mjesto Joava.
And you shall say to Amessai, [Are] you not my bone and my flesh? and now God do so to me, and more also, if you shall not be commander of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.
14 I skloni srca svijeh ljudi od roda Judina kao jednoga èovjeka, te poslaše k caru govoreæi: vrati se sa svijem slugama svojim.
And he bowed the heart of all the men of Juda as that of one man; and they sent to the king, saying, Return you, and all your servants.
15 I tako se car vrati, i doðe do Jordana; a Juda doðe do Galgala da srete cara i da ga prevede preko Jordana.
And the king returned, and came as far as Jordan. And the men of Juda came to Galgala on their way to meet the king, to cause the king to pass over Jordan.
16 Pohitje i Simej sin Girin od Venijamina, koji bijaše iz Vaurima, i siðe s ljudima roda Judina na susret caru Davidu;
And Semei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, of Baurim, hasted and went down with the men of Juda to meet king David.
17 I tisuæa ljudi bješe s njim od roda Venijaminova; takoðer i Siva sluga doma Saulova s petnaest sinova svojih i dvadeset sluga svojih; i prijeðoše preko Jordana pred cara.
And a thousand men of Benjamin [were] with him, and Siba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons with him, and his twenty servants with him: and they went directly down to Jordan before the king,
18 Preturiše i laðu da prevezu èeljad carevu i da uèine što bi mu bilo ugodno. A Simej sin Girin pade pred carem, kad šæaše da prijeðe preko Jordana,
and they performed the service of bringing the king over; and there went over a ferry-boat to remove the household of the king, and to do that which was right in his eyes. And Semei the son of Gera fell on his face before the king, as he went over Jordan;
19 I reèe caru: ne primi mi bezakonja, gospodaru moj, i ne pominji pakosti koju je uèinio sluga tvoj u onaj dan kad je car gospodar moj izašao iz Jerusalima; neka car ne misli o tom.
and said to the king, Let not my lord now impute iniquity, and remember not all the iniquity of your servant in the day in which my lord went out from Jerusalem, so that the king should mind it.
20 Jer sluga tvoj vidi da je zgriješio; i evo došao sam danas prvi iz svega doma Josifova da sretem cara gospodara svojega.
For your servant knows that I have sinned: and, behold, I am come today before all Israel and the house of Joseph, to go down and meet my lord the king.
21 Ali odgovori Avisaj sin Serujin i reèe: eda li toga radi neæe poginuti Simej što je psovao pomazanika Gospodnjega?
And Abessai the son of Saruia answered and said, Shall not Semei therefore be put to death, because he cursed the Lord's anointed?
22 A David reèe: šta je vama do mene, sinovi Serujini, te ste mi danas protivnici? zar æe danas poginuti ko u Izrailju? jer zar ne znam da sam danas postao car nad Izrailjem?
And David said, What have I to do with you, you sons of Saruia, that you as it were lie in wait against me this day? today no man in Israel shall be put to death, for I know not if I this day reign over Israel.
23 I reèe car Simeju: neæeš poginuti. I zakle mu se car.
And the king said to Semei, You shall not die: and the king swore to him.
24 Tako i Mefivostej sin Saulov doðe caru na susret; on pak ne opra nogu svojih, niti brade svoje oèešlja, ni opra haljine svoje od onoga dana kad otide car do dana kad se vrati s mirom.
And Memphibosthe the son of Saul's son went down to meet the king, and had not dressed his feet, nor pared his nails, nor shaved himself, neither had he washed his garments, from the day that the king departed, until the day when he arrived in peace.
25 I srete cara kad se vraæaše u Jerusalim; i reèe mu car: zašto ne poðe sa mnom, Mefivosteju?
And it came to pass when he went into Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said to him, Why did you not go with me, Memphibosthe?
26 A on reèe: caru gospodaru moj, prevari me sluga moj; jer sluga tvoj reèe: osedlaæu sebi magarca i uzjahaæu ga i poæi æu s carem; jer je hrom sluga tvoj.
And Memphibosthe said to him, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me; for your servant said to him, Saddle me the ass, and I will ride upon it, and go with the king; for your servant [is] lame.
27 I on opade slugu tvojega kod gospodara mojega cara; ali je car gospodar moj kao anðeo Božji; zato èini što ti je drago.
And he has dealt deceitfully with your servant to my lord the king: but my lord the king [is] as an angel of God, and do you that which is good in your eyes.
28 Jer sav dom oca mojega bijahu ljudi koji zaslužiše smrt pred carem gospodarem mojim, a ti posadi slugu svojega meðu one koji jedu za stolom tvojim. Pa kakvo imam još pravo, i kako se mogu još tužiti caru?
For all the house of my father were but as dead men before my lord the king; yet you have set your servant among them that eat at your table: and what right have I any longer even to cry to the king?
29 A car mu reèe: šta bi mi više govorio? kazao sam: ti i Siva podijelite njivu.
And the king said to him, Why speak you any longer of your matters? I have said, You and Siba shall divide the land.
30 A Mefivostej reèe caru: neka uzme sve, kad se car gospodar moj vratio na miru u dom svoj.
And Memphibosthe said to the king, Yes, let him take all, since my lord the king has come in peace to his house.
31 I Varzelaj od Galada doðe iz Rogelima, i poðe s carem preko Jordana da ga prati preko Jordana.
And Berzelli the Galaadite came down from Rogellim, and crossed over Jordan with the king, that he might conduct the king over Jordan.
32 A bješe Varzelaj vrlo star, bješe mu osamdeset godina, i hranjaše cara dok bijaše u Mahanajimu, jer bješe vrlo bogat èovjek.
And Berzelli was a very old man, eighty years old; and he had maintained the king when he lived in Manaim; for he was a very great man.
33 I reèe car Varzelaju: hajde sa mnom; ja æu te hraniti kod sebe u Jerusalimu.
And the king said to Berzelli, You shall go over with me, and I will nourish your old age with me in Jerusalem.
34 Ali Varzelaj reèe caru: koliko ima vijeka mojega, da idem s carem u Jerusalim?
And Berzelli said to the king, How many [are] the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
35 Ima mi danas osamdeset godina; mogu li raspoznavati dobro i zlo? može li sluga tvoj kusom razlikovati što æe jesti i što æe piti? mogu li jošte slušati glas pjevaèima i pjevaèicama? i zašto bi sluga tvoj još bio na tegotu caru gospodaru mojemu?
I am this day eighty years old: can I then distinguish between good and evil? Can your servant taste any longer what I eat or drink? can I any longer hear the voice of singing men or singing women? and therefore shall your servant any longer be a burden to my lord the king?
36 Malo æe proæi sluga tvoj preko Jordana s carem; a zašto bi mi car tako naplatio?
Your servant will go a little way over Jordan with the king: and why does the king return me this recompense?
37 Neka se sluga tvoj vrati, da umrem u svom gradu kod groba oca svojega i matere svoje. Nego evo, sluga tvoj Himam neka ide s carem gospodarem mojim, uèini njemu što ti bude drago.
Let, I pray you, your servant remain, and I will die in my city, by the tomb of my father and of my mother. And, behold, your servant Chamaam shall go over with my lord the king; and do you to him as it seems good in your eyes.
38 A car reèe: neka ide sa mnom Himam; ja æu mu uèiniti što bude tebi drago, i što god zaišteš u mene, sve æu ti uèiniti.
And the king said, Let Chamaam go over with me, and I will do to him what is good in my sight; and whatever you shall choose at my hand, I will do for you.
39 I kad prijeðe sav narod preko Jordana i car prijeðe, cjelova car Varzelaja i blagoslovi ga, i on se vrati u mjesto svoje.
And all the people went over Jordan, and the king went over; and the king kissed Berzelli, and blessed him; and he returned to his place.
40 Otuda car otide u Galgal, i Himam otide s njim. I tako sav narod Judin doprati cara, i polovina naroda Izrailjeva.
And the king went over to Galgala, and Chamaam went over with him: and all the men of Juda went over with the king, and also half the people of Israel.
41 A gle, svi ljudi Izrailjci doðoše k caru i rekoše mu: zašto te ukradoše braæa naša, ljudi Judini, i prevedoše preko Jordana cara i dom njegov i sve ljude Davidove s njim?
And behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, Why have our brethren the men of Juda stolen you away, and caused the king and all his house to pass over Jordan, and all the men of David with him?
42 A svi ljudi od Jude odgovoriše ljudima od Izrailja: jer je car nama rod; pa što se srdite toga radi? jesmo li što pojeli caru? je li nas darom darivao?
And all the men of Juda answered the men of Israel, and said, Because the king is near of kin to us: and why were you thus angry concerning this matter? have we indeed eaten of the king's food? or has he given us a gift, or has he sent us a portion?
43 Tada odgovoriše ljudi od Izrailja ljudima od Jude, i rekoše: mi imamo deset dijelova u cara, i Davidu smo više nego vi; zašto dakle ne mariste za nas? nijesmo li mi prvi govorili da dovedemo natrag cara svojega? Ali besjeda ljudi od Jude bješe tvrða od besjede ljudi od Izrailja.
And the men of Israel answered the men of Juda, and said, We have ten parts in the king, and we are older than you, we have also an interest in David above you: and why have you thus insulted us, and why was not our advice taken before that of Juda, to bring back our king? And the speech of the men of Juda was sharper than the speech of the men of Israel.
