1 Књига Самуилова 14
1 Један дан рече Јонатан, син Саулов, момку свом који му ношаше оружје: Хајде да идемо к стражи филистејској која је на оној страни. А оцу свом не каза ништа.
Now it came to pass one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armour, Come and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison which is on the other side. But he did not tell his father.
2 А Саул стајаше крај брда под шипком, који беше у Мигрону; и народа беше с њим око шест стотина људи.
And Saul abode at the extreme end of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which [was] in Migron; and the people that were with him were about six hundred men.
3 И Ахија син Ахитова брата Ихавода сина Финеса сина Илија свештеника Господњег у Силому ношаше оплећак. И народ не знаше да је отишао Јонатан.
(And Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, Jehovah's priest in Shiloh, wore the ephod.) And the people did not know that Jonathan was gone.
4 А у кланцу којим хтеде Јонатан отићи к стражи филистејској, беху две стрмене стене, једна с једне стране а друга с друге, и једна се зваше Восес а друга Сене.
Now between the passes by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistines' garrison there was a sharp rock on the one side and a sharp rock on the other side; and the name of the one [was] Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
5 И једна од њих стајаше са севера према Михмасу, а друга с југа према Гаваји.
The one crag [formed] a pillar on the north opposite to Michmash, and the other on the south opposite to Geba.
6 И Јонатан рече момку који му ношаше оружје: Хајде да отидемо к стражи тих необрезаних; може бити да ће нам учинити шта Господ, јер Господу не смета избавити с множином или с малином.
And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armour, Come, and let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised: perhaps Jehovah will work for us; for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.
7 А онај што му ношаше оружје одговори му: Чини шта ти је год у срцу, иди, ево ја ћу ићи с тобом куда год хоћеш.
And his armour-bearer said to him, Do all that is in thy heart; turn thee; behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.
8 А Јонатан му рече: Ево, отићи ћемо к тим људима, и показаћемо им се.
Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over to the men, and we will shew ourselves to them.
9 Ако нам кажу: Чекајте докле дођемо к вама, тада ћемо се уставити на свом месту, и нећемо ићи к њима.
If they say thus to us, Stand still until we come to you, then we will stay in our place, and will not go up to them.
10 Ако ли кажу: Ходите к нама, тада ћемо отићи; јер нам их Господ предаде у руке. То ће нам бити знак.
And if they say thus, Come up to us, then we will go up; for Jehovah has given them into our hand; and this shall be the sign to us.
11 И показаше се обојица стражи филистејској; а Филистеји рекоше: Гле, излазе Јевреји из рупа у које су се сакрили.
And both of them shewed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.
12 И стражари рекоше Јонатану и момку који му ношаше оружје: Ходите к нама да вам кажемо нешто. И Јонатан рече оном што му ношаше оружје: Хајде за мном, јер их предаде Господ у руке Израиљу.
And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armour-bearer and said, Come up to us, and we will shew you something. And Jonathan said to his armour-bearer, Come up after me; for Jehovah has delivered them into the hand of Israel.
13 Тако пузаше Јонатан рукама и ногама, а за њим момак што му ношаше оружје; и падаху пред Јонатаном, и убијаше их за њим онај што му ношаше оружје.
And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armour-bearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan; and his armour-bearer slew after him.
14 И то би први бој, у коме поби Јонатан и момак што му ношаше оружје око двадесет људи, отприлике на по рала земље.
And that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armour-bearer wrought was about twenty men, as it were on the half-furrow of an acre of land.
15 И уђе страх у логор у пољу и у сав народ; и стража и они који беху изашли да плене препадоше се, и земља се усколеба, јер беше страх од Бога.
And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the ravagers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked; for it was a trembling [from] God.
16 А стража Саулова у Гаваји Венијаминовој опази где се мноштво узбунило и успрепадало.
And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away, and they went on slaying one another.
17 Тада рече Саул народу који беше с њим: Прегледајте и видите ко је отишао од нас. И кад прегледаше, гле, не беше Јонатана и момка његовог који му ношаше оружје.
Then said Saul to the people that were with him, Muster now, and see who is gone from us. And they mustered, and behold, Jonathan and his armour-bearer were not there.
18 И рече Саул Ахији: Донеси ковчег Божји; јер ковчег Божји беше тада код синова Израиљевих.
And Saul said to Ahijah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel.
19 А док говораше Саул свештенику, забуна у логору филистејском биваше све већа, и Саул рече свештенику: Остави.
And it came to pass while Saul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw thy hand.
20 И Саул и сав народ што беше с њим скупише се и дођоше до боја, и гле, повадили беху мачеве један на другог, и забуна беше врло велика.
And Saul and all the people that were with him were called together, and they came to the battle; and behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, a very great confusion.
21 А беше с Филистејима Јевреја као пре, који иђаху с њима на војску свуда; па и они присташе уз Израиљце, који беху са Саулом и Јонатаном.
And there were Hebrews with the Philistines before that time, who had gone up with them into the camp round about; and they also [turned] to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
22 И сви Израиљци који се беху сакрили у гори Јефремовој кад чуше да беже Филистеји, наклопише се и они за њима бијући их.
And all the men of Israel who had hid themselves in mount Ephraim heard that the Philistines fled, and they also followed hard after them in the battle.
23 И избави Господ Израиља у онај дан; и бој отиде дори до Вет-Авена.
And Jehovah saved Israel that day; and the battle passed over beyond Beth-Aven.
24 И Израиљци се врло уморише онај дан; а Саул закле народ говорећи: Да је проклет који једе шта до вечера, да се осветим непријатељима својим. И не окуси народ ништа.
But the men of Israel were distressed that day. Now Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food until evening, and [until] I am avenged on mine enemies. So none of the people tasted food.
25 И сав народ оне земље дође у шуму, где беше много меда по земљи.
And all they of the land came to a wood; and there was honey on the ground.
26 И кад дође народ у шуму, виде мед где тече; али нико не принесе руке к устима својим: јер се народ бојаше заклетве.
And the people had come into the wood, and behold, the honey flowed; but no man put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.
27 Али Јонатан не чу кад отац његов закле народ, те пружи штап који му беше у руци, и замочи крај у саће, и примаче руку своју к устима својим, и засветлише му се очи.
But Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he put forth the end of his staff which was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes became bright.
28 А један из народа проговори и рече: Отац је твој заклео народ рекавши: Да је проклет ко би јео шта данас; стога суста народ.
Then answered one of the people and said, Thy father strictly adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food this day; and the people are faint.
29 Тада рече Јонатан: Смео је земљу отац мој; видите како ми се засветлише очи, чим окусих мало меда.
And Jonathan said, My father has troubled the land: see, I pray you, that mine eyes are bright, because I tasted a little of this honey.
30 А да је још народ слободно јео данас од плена непријатеља својих, који нађе! Не би ли полом филистејски био још већи?
How much more, if the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for would there not now have been a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?
31 И тако побише онај дан Филистеје од Михмаса до Ајалона, и народ се врло умори.
And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Ajalon; and the people were very faint.
32 И наклопи се народ на плен, и нахваташе оваца и волова и телаца, и поклаше их на земљи, и стаде народ јести с крвљу.
And the people fell on the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slaughtered them on the ground; and the people ate [them] with the blood.
33 И јавише Саулу говорећи: Ево народ греши Господу једући с крвљу. А он рече: Неверу учинисте; доваљајте сада к мени велик камен.
And they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against Jehovah, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have acted perversely: roll me now a great stone.
34 Затим рече Саул: Разиђите се међу народ и реците: Доведите сваки к мени вола свог и овцу своју; и овде закољите и једите, и нећете грешити Господу једући с крвљу. И донесе сав народ, сваки свог вола својом руком оне ноћи, и онде клаше.
And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, Bring near to me every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slaughter them here, and eat; and sin not against Jehovah in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slaughtered [them] there.
35 И начини Саул олтар Господу; то би први олтар који начини Господу.
And Saul built an altar to Jehovah: this was the first altar he built to Jehovah.
36 Потом рече Саул: Хајдемо за Филистејима ноћас, да их пленимо до јутра, и да их не оставимо ни једног. А они рекоше: Чини шта ти је год воља. Али свештеник рече: Да приступимо овде к Богу.
And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever is good in thy sight. Then said the priest, Let us come near hither to God.
37 И упита Саул Бога: Хоћу ли ићи за Филистејима? Хоћеш ли их дати у руке Израиљу? Али не одговори му онај дан.
And Saul inquired of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou give them into the hand of Israel? But he did not answer him that day.
38 Зато рече Саул: Приступите овамо сви главари народни, и тражите и видите на коме је грех данас.
And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the heads of the people; and know and see wherein this sin has been this day.
39 Јер како је жив Господ који избавља Израиља, ако буде и на Јонатану сину мом, погинуће заиста. И не одговори му нико из свега народа.
For, [as] Jehovah liveth, who has saved Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall certainly die. And no one answered him among all the people.
40 Потом рече свему Израиљу: Ви будите с једне стране, а ја и Јонатан, син мој, бићемо с друге стране. А народ рече Саулу: Чини шта ти је драго.
Then said he to all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said to Saul, Do what is good in thy sight.
41 Тада рече Саул Господу Богу Израиљевом: Покажи правога. И обличи се Јонатан и Саул, а народ изађе прав.
And Saul said to Jehovah the God of Israel, Give a perfect [testimony]! And Jonathan and Saul were taken, and the people escaped.
42 И рече Саул: Баците жреб за ме и за Јонатана, сина мог. И обличи се Јонатан.
And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
43 Тада рече Саул Јонатану: Кажи ми шта си учинио? И каза му Јонатан и рече: Само сам окусио мало меда накрај штапа који ми беше у руци; ево ме; хоћу ли погинути?
And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him and said, With the end of the staff which is in my hand I tasted a little honey, [and] behold, I must die!
44 А Саул рече: То нека ми учини Бог и то нека дода, погинућеш, Јонатане!
And Saul said, God do so [to me] and more also; thou shalt certainly die, Jonathan.
45 Али народ рече Саулу: Зар да погине Јонатан, који је учинио ово спасење велико у Израиљу? Боже сачувај! Тако жив био Господ, неће пасти на земљу ниједна длака с главе његове, јер је с помоћу Божјом учинио то данас. И тако избави народ Јонатана, те не погибе.
And the people said to Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who has wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far be it! [as] Jehovah liveth, there shall not a hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has wrought with God this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he died not.
46 Тада се врати Саул од Филистеја, а Филистеји отидоше у своје место.
And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.
47 И Саул царујући над Израиљем ратоваше на све непријатеље своје, на Моавце и на синове Амонове и на Едомце и на цареве совске и на Филистеје, и куда се год обраћаше, надвлађиваше.
And Saul took the kingdom over Israel, and fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines; and whithersoever he turned himself, he discomfited [them].
48 Скупи такође војску и поби Амалика; и избави Израиља из руку оних који га плењаху.
And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of their spoilers.
49 А Саул имаше синове: Јонатана и Исуја и Мелхисуја; а двема кћерима његовим беху имена првеници Мерава, а млађој Михала.
And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jishvi, and Malchi-shua. And the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.
50 А жени Сауловој беше име Ахиноама, кћи Ахимасова; а војводи његовом беше име Авенир син Нира стрица Сауловог.
And the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz; and the name of the captain of his host was Abner, the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
51 Јер Кис отац Саулов и Нир отац Авениров беху синови Авилови.
And Kish the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner were sons of Abiel.
52 И беше велики рат с Филистејима свега века Сауловог; и кога год виђаше Саул храброг и јунака, узимаше га к себи.
And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him to himself.
