2 Samuelova 24
1 A Gospod se opet razgnjevi na Izrailja, i nadraži Davida na njih govoreæi: hajde izbroj Izrailja i Judu.
Again the LORD’s anger burnt against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, “Go, count Israel and Judah.”
2 I reèe car Joavu, vojvodi svom: proði po svijem plemenima Izrailjevijem od Dana do Virsaveje, i izbrojte narod, da znam koliko ima naroda.
The king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, “Now go back and forth through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and count the people, that I may know the sum of the people.”
3 A Joav reèe caru: neka doda Gospod Bog tvoj k narodu koliko ga je sad još sto puta toliko, i da car gospodar moj vidi svojim oèima; ali zašto car gospodar moj hoæe to?
Joab said to the king, “Now may the LORD your God add to the people, however many they may be, one hundred times; and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king delight in this thing?”
4 Ali rijeè careva bi jaèa od Joava i vojvoda; i otide Joav i vojvode od cara da prebroje narod Izrailjev.
Notwithstanding, the king’s word prevailed against Joab and against the captains of the army. Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.
5 I prešavši preko Jordana stadoše u oko u Aroiru, s desne strane grada, koji je na sredini potoka Gadova, i kod Jazira.
They passed over the Jordan and encamped in Aroer, on the right side of the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad, and to Jazer;
6 Potom doðoše u Galad, i u donju zemlju Odsiju, a odatle otidoše u Dan-Jan i u okolinu Sidonsku.
then they came to Gilead and to the land of Tahtim Hodshi; and they came to Dan Jaan and around to Sidon,
7 Potom doðoše do grada Tira i u sve gradove Jevejske i Hananejske; i otidoše na južnu stranu Judinu u Virsaveju.
and came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beersheba.
8 I obišavši svu zemlju vratiše se u Jerusalim poslije devet mjeseci i dvadeset dana.
So when they had gone back and forth through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9 I Joav dade caru broj prepisanoga naroda; i bješe od Izrailja osam stotina tisuæa ljudi za vojsku koji mahahu maèem, a ljudi od Jude pet stotina tisuæa.
Joab gave up the sum of the counting of the people to the king; and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
10 Tada Davida taknu u srce, pošto prebroji narod, i reèe David Gospodu: sagriješih veoma što to uradih. Ali, Gospode, uzmi bezakonje sluge svojega, jer veoma ludo radih.
David’s heart struck him after he had counted the people. David said to the LORD, “I have sinned greatly in that which I have done. But now, the LORD, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly.”
11 A kad David usta ujutru, doðe rijeè Gospodnja Gadu proroku, koji bijaše Davidu vidjelac, i reèe:
When David rose up in the morning, the LORD’s word came to the prophet Gad, David’s seer, saying,
12 Idi i kaži Davidu: ovako veli Gospod: troje ti dajem, izberi jedno da ti uèinim.
“Go and speak to David, ‘The LORD says, “I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you.”’”
13 I doðe Gad k Davidu, i kaza mu govoreæi: hoæeš li da bude sedam gladnijeh godina u zemlji tvojoj, ili da bježiš tri mjeseca od neprijatelja svojih i oni da te gone, ili da bude tri dana pomor u tvojoj zemlji? Sad promisli i gledaj šta æu odgovoriti onome koji me je poslao.
So Gad came to David, and told him, saying, “Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days’ pestilence in your land? Now answer, and consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.”
14 A David reèe Gadu: u tjeskobi sam ljutoj; ali neka zapadnemo Gospodu u ruke, jer je milost njegova velika; a ljudima da ne zapadnem u ruke.
David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let us fall now into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are great. Let me not fall into man’s hand.”
15 I tako pusti Gospod pomor na Izrailja od jutra do odreðenoga vremena, i pomrije naroda od Dana do Virsaveje sedamdeset tisuæa ljudi.
So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the appointed time; and seventy thousand men died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba.
16 A kad anðeo pruži ruku svoju na Jerusalim da ga ubija, sažali se Gospodu sa zla, i reèe anðelu koji ubijaše narod: dosta, spusti ruku. A anðeo Gospodnji bijaše kod gumna Orne Jevusejina.
When the angel stretched out his hand towards Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who destroyed the people, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” The LORD’s angel was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 A David kad vidje anðela gdje bije narod, progovori i reèe Gospodu: evo, ja sam zgriješio, ja sam zlo uèinio, a te ovce što su uèinile? neka se ruka tvoja obrati na mene i na dom oca mojega.
David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, “Behold, I have sinned, and I have done perversely; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father’s house.”
18 Potom opet doðe Gad k Davidu isti dan, i reèe mu: idi, naèini Gospodu oltar na gumnu Orne Jevusejina.
Gad came that day to David and said to him, “Go up, build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”
19 I otide David po rijeèi Gadovoj, kako Gospod zapovjedi.
David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.
20 Tada Orna obazrevši se ugleda cara i sluge njegove gdje idu k njemu; i otide Orna i pokloni se caru licem do zemlje,
Araunah looked out, and saw the king and his servants coming on towards him. Then Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
21 I reèe: što je došao car gospodar moj sluzi svojemu? A David reèe: da kupim od tebe to gumno, da naèinim na njemu oltar Gospodu da bi prestao pomor u narodu.
Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
22 A Orna reèe Davidu: neka uzme car gospodar moj i prinese na žrtvu što mu je volja; evo volova za žrtvu paljenicu, i kola i jarmova volujskih za drva.
Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Behold, the cattle for the burnt offering, and the threshing sledges and the yokes of the oxen for the wood.
23 Sve to davaše caru Orna kao car, i reèe Orna caru: Gospod Bog tvoj neka te milostivo primi.
All this, O king, does Araunah give to the king.” Araunah said to the king, “May the LORD your God accept you.”
24 A car reèe Orni: ne; nego æu kupiti od tebe po cijeni, niti æu prinijeti Gospodu Bogu svojemu žrtve paljenice poklonjene. I tako kupi David gumno i volove za pedeset sikala srebra.
The king said to Araunah, “No, but I will most certainly buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God which cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25 I ondje naèini David oltar Gospodu, i prinese žrtve paljenice i žrtve zahvalne. I Gospod se umilostivi zemlji, i presta pomor u Izrailju.
David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was removed from Israel.
