< 2 Samuelova 1 >
1 A po smrti Saulovoj, kad se David vrati pobivši Amalike i osta u Siklagu dva dana,
And so it was, after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the smiting of the Amalekites, and David had abode in Ziklag two days,
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.
yea so it was, on the third day, that lo! 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 in unto David, that he fell to the earth, and did homage.
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 turned out the matter? tell me, I pray thee. And he said—The people have fled from the battle, yea moreover, many, of the people have fallen, and died, Yea moreover, Saul, and Jonathan his son, are dead.
5 A David reèe momku koji mu donese glas: kako znaš da je poginuo Saul i sin mu Jonatan?
Then said David unto the young man who was telling 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 who was telling him said, It, so happened, that I was on Mount Gilboa, when lo! Saul, leaning upon his spear, and lo! the chariots and horsemen, hotly pursued him;
7 A on obazrevši se natrag ugleda me, pa me viknu, a ja mu rekoh: evo me.
so he turned behind him, and saw me, —and cried out unto me, and I said, Behold me!
8 A on mi reèe: ko si? A ja mu rekoh: Amalik sam.
And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I said unto him, An Amalekite, am I.
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, I pray thee, take thy stand by me, and put me to death, for the cramp hath seized me, —even for as long as my life shall be 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 took my stand by him, and put him to death, for I perceived that he could not survive his fall, —so I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them in unto my lord, here.
11 Tada David zgrabi haljine na sebi i razdrije ih; tako i svi ljudi koji bijahu s njim.
Then David took hold of his clothes, and rent them, —yea moreover, [so did] all the men who 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 lamented aloud, and wept, and fasted until the evening, —for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Yahweh, and for the house of Israel, because they had 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 who was telling him, Whence art thou? And he said, Son of a sojourner—an Amalekite, am I.
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 thrust forth thy hand, to destroy the Anointed of Yahweh?
15 I dozva David jednoga izmeðu momaka svojih i reèe: hodi, pogubi ga. A on ga udari, te umrije.
So David called one of the young men, and said, —Go near—fall upon him. And he smote him, 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 thine own head, —for, thine own mouth, hath testified against thee, saying, I myself, put to death the Anointed of Yahweh.
17 Tada David narica ovako za Saulom i za Jonatanom sinom njegovijem,
Then chanted David this dirge, —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 thought to teach the sons of Judah [the song of] the Bow, —lo! it is written in the Book of the Upright: —
19 Diko Izrailjeva! na tvojim visinama pobijeni su; kako padoše junaci?
The beauty of Israel! on thy high plumes—slain! How have fallen—the mighty!
20 Ne kazujte u Gatu, i ne razglašujte po ulicama Askalonskim, da se ne vesele kæeri Filistejske i da ne igraju kæeri neobrezanijeh.
Do not tell it in Gath, Do not publish it 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 in Gilboa! Be there neither dew nor rain upon you, nor fields of offerings, —for, there, were cast away, the shields of the mighty, The shield of Saul, unanointed 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 ne’er drew back, —and, the sword of Saul, ne’er returned, empty.
23 Saul i Jonatan, mili i dragi za života, ni na smrti se ne rastaviše; lakši od orlova bijahu.
Saul and Jonathan, delightfully loving in their lives, even, in their death, were not divided, —Beyond eagles, were they swift, beyond lions, were they strong!
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! For Saul, weep ye, —who clothed you in crimson, [decked] with lovely things, who hung ornaments of gold on your apparel!
25 Kako padoše junaci u boju! Jonatan kako pogibe na tvojim visinama!
How have fallen the mighty, in the midst of the battle! Jonathan, on thy high places, slain!
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! Delightful to me, exceedingly, —Wonderful, was thy love to me, passing the love of women.
27 Kako padoše junaci, i propade oružje ubojito!
How have fallen the mighty, and perished the weapons of war!
