2 Samuelova 23
1 A ovo su pošljednje rijeèi Davidove: Reèe David sin Jesejev, reèe èovjek koji bi postavljen visoko, pomazanik Boga Jakovljeva, i ljubak u pjesmama Izrailjevim:
Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse saith, and the man who was raised on high saith, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel:
2 Duh Gospodnji govori preko mene, i besjeda njegova bi na mojem jeziku.
The spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was upon my tongue.
3 Reèe Bog Izrailjev, kaza mi stijena Izrailjeva: koji vlada ljudima neka je pravedan, vladajuæi u strahu Božijem;
The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me: One that ruleth over men righteously, that ruleth in the fear of God,
4 I biæe kao svjetlost jutrenja, kad sunce izlazi jutrom bez oblaka, i kao trava koja raste iz zemlje od svjetlosti iza dažda.
[He shall be] as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; [when] the tender grass [springeth] out of the earth, through clear shining after rain.
5 Ako i nije taki dom moj pred Bogom, ipak je uèinio zavjet vjeèan sa mnom, u svemu dobro ureðen i utvrðen. I to je sve spasenje moje i sva želja moja, ako i ne da da raste.
Verily my house is not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for it is all my salvation, and all [my] desire, although he maketh it not to grow.
6 A bezakonici æe svikoliki biti kao trnje poèupani, koje se ne hvata rukom.
But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away, for they cannot be taken with the hand:
7 Nego ko hoæe da ga se dohvati, uzme gvožðe ili kopljaèu; i sažiže se ognjem na mjestu.
But the man that toucheth them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place.
8 Ovo su imena junaka Davidovijeh: Josev-Vasevet Tahmonac prvi izmeðu trojice; njemu milina bi udariti s kopljem na osam stotina, i pobi ih ujedanput.
These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time.
9 Za njim Eleazar sin Dodona sina Ahohova, izmeðu tri junaka koji bijahu s Davidom, i osramotiše Filisteje skupljene na boj, kad Izrailjci otidoše;
And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:
10 On se podiže, i bi Filisteje dokle mu se ruka ne umori i ukoèi se pri maèu; i Gospod dade veliko spasenje onaj dan, te se narod vrati za njim samo da pokupi plijen.
He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
11 A za njim Sama sin Agejev Araranin; kad se Filisteji skupiše u gomilu, i ondje bješe njiva puna leæa, i narod pobježe od Filisteja,
And after him was Shammah the son of Agce a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the Philistines.
12 Stade usred njive, i odbrani je, i pobi Filisteje, i Bog dade veliko spasenje.
But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.
13 I ta tri prva izmeðu trideset siðoše i doðoše o žetvi k Davidu u peæinu Odolamsku, kad vojska Filistejska stajaše u okolu u dolini Rafajskoj.
And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
14 A David bijaše onda u gradu, i bješe onda straža Filistejska u Vitlejemu.
And David was then in the hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem.
15 A David zaželje, i reèe: ko bi mi donio vode da pijem iz studenca Vitlejemskoga što je kod vrata!
And David longed and said, Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem which is by the gate!
16 Tada ona tri junaka prodriješe kroz oko Filistejski, i zahvatiše vode iz studenca Vitlejemskoga što je kod vrata, i donesoše i dadoše Davidu; ali on je ne htje piti, nego je proli pred Gospodom;
And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD.
17 I reèe: ne daj Bože da bih to uèinio. Nije li to krv ovijeh ljudi, koji ne mareæi za život svoj idoše. I ne htje piti. To uèiniše ova tri junaka.
And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: [shall I drink] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
18 I Avisaj brat Joavov sin Serujin bješe prvi izmeðu trojice; on mahnu kopljem svojim na tri stotine, i pobi ih, i proslavi se meðu trojicom.
And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, and had a name among the three.
19 Izmeðu te trojice bješe najslavniji, i posta im poglavar; ali one trojice ne stiže.
Was he not most honourable of the three? therefore he was made their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the [first] three.
20 I Venaja sin Jodajev, sin èovjeka junaka, velik djelima, iz Kavseila; on pogubi dva junaka Moavska, i sišav ubi lava u jami kad bješe snijeg.
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he slew the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:
21 On ubi i jednoga Misirca, znatna èovjeka; imaše Misirac koplje u ruci, a on izide na nj sa štapom, i istrže Misircu koplje iz ruke, i ubi ga njegovijem kopljem.
And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.
22 To uèini Venaja sin Jodajev, i bi slavan meðu ova tri junaka.
These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had a name among the three mighty men.
23 Bješe najslavniji izmeðu tridesetorice, ali one trojice ne stiže; i David ga postavi nad pratiocima svojim.
He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three. And David set him over his guard.
