1 Књига Самуилова 25
1 У том умре Самуило и сабра се сав Израиљ, и плакаше за њим, и погребоше га у дому његовом у Рами. А Давид уста и сиђе у пустињу Фаранску.
Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Maon.
2 А беше један човек у Маону, а стока му беше на Кармилу; и беше човек врло богат, јер имаше три хиљаде оваца и хиљаду коза, и тада стрижаше овце своје на Кармилу.
There was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
3 И беше име том човеку Навал, а жени му име Авигеја; и она беше жена разумна и лепа, а он беше тврда срца и опак, а беше од рода Халевовог.
Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. And the woman was intelligent and beautiful, but the man was harsh and evil in his dealings; and the man was a Calebite.
4 И Давид чу у пустињи да Навал стриже овце.
David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
5 И посла Давид десет момака, и рече Давид момцима: Идите на Кармил, и отидите к Навалу, и поздравите га од мене.
So David sent ten young men, and said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
6 И реците му: Здраво! И мир да ти је, и дому твом да је мир, и свему што имаш да је мир!
Thus you are to say to my brother, 'Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.
7 Чуо сам да стрижеш овце; пастири су твоји бивали код нас, и не учинисмо им неправде, и ништа им није нестало докле год беху на Кармилу.
And now, look, I have heard that you have shearers. Now your shepherds have been with us in the wilderness, and we did not hurt them, neither was there anything missing from them, all the while they were in Carmel.
8 Питај слуге своје, и казаће ти. Нека ови момци нађу милост пред тобом, јер дођосмо у добар дан. Дај слугама својим и Давиду сину свом што ти дође до руке.
Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes; for we come in a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand, to your servants, and to your son David.'"
9 И дођоше момци Давидови, и казаше Навалу у име Давидово све ове речи, и ућуташе.
So the young men came and spoke to Nabal according to all those words on David's behalf, but he behaved arrogantly.
10 А Навал одговори слугама Давидовим и рече: Ко је Давид? И ко је син Јесејев? Данас има много слуга које беже од својих господара.
Nabal answered David's servants, and said, "Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.
11 Еда ли ћу узети хлеб свој и воду своју и месо што сам поклао за људе који ми стрижу овце, па дати људима којих не знам одакле су?
Shall I then take my bread, and my wine, and my meat that I have slaughtered for the shearers of my sheep, and give it to men who I do not know where they come from?"
12 Тада се вратише момци Давидови својим путем, вратише се, и дошавши казаше му све ове речи.
So David's young men turned on their way, and went back, and came and told him according to all these words.
13 А Давид рече својим људима: Припашите сваки свој мач. И припасаше сваки свој мач, и Давид припаса свој мач; и пође за Давидом до четири стотине људи, а двеста осташе код пртљага.
David said to his men, "Every man put on his sword." So every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David; and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
14 Али Авигеји, жени Наваловој, каза један између слуга његових говорећи: Ево, Давид посла из пустиње посланике да поздрави господара нашег, а он их отера.
But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, "Look, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he railed at them.
15 А ти су нам људи били врло добри. Нити нам учинише криво, нити нам чега неста докле год бејасмо код њих у пољу.
But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, nor did we miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.
16 Него нам беху зидови и ноћу и дању, докле год бејасмо код њих пасући овце.
They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
17 Зато сада гледај и промисли шта ћеш чинити, јер је готово зло господару нашем и свему дому његовом; а он је зао човек, да му се не може говорити.
Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a worthless fellow that one can't speak to him."
18 Тада Авигеја брже узе двеста хлебова и две мешине вина и пет оваца зготовљених и пет мерица прженог жита, и сто гроздова сувог грожђа и двеста груда сувих смокава, и метну на магарце.
Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two bottles of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five measures of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
19 И рече момцима својим: Хајдете напред, а ја ћу ићи за вама. А мужу свом Навалу ништа не рече.
She said to her young men, "Go on before me. Look, I come after you." But she did not tell her husband.
20 И седавши на магарца иђаше испод горе, а гле Давид и људи његови силажаху пред њу, и сукоби се с њима.
It was so, as she rode on her donkey, and came down by the covert of the mountain, that look, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.
21 А Давид говораше: Еле сам залуду чувао све што је тај имао у пустињи да му ништа не беше нестало од свега што има; јер ми врати зло за добро.
Now David had said, "Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.
22 То нека учини Бог непријатељима Давидовим и то нека дода, ако му до зоре од свега што има оставим и оно што мокри уз зид.
God do so to David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."
23 А кад Авигеја угледа Давида, брже сиђе с магарца, и паде пред Давидом на лице своје и поклони се до земље;
When Abigail saw David, she hurried, and got off from her donkey, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground at his feet.
24 И паднувши му к ногама рече: На мени, господару, нека буде та кривица; али да проговори слушкиња твоја теби, и чуј речи слушкиње своје.
And she said, "On me, my lord, be the guilt; and please let your servant speak to you directly, and hear the words of your servant.
25 Нека господар мој не гледа на тог неваљалог човека, Навала, јер је као име што му је; Навал му је име, и безумље је код њега. А ја слушкиња твоја нисам видела момке господара свог које си слао.
Please do not let my lord regard this worthless fellow, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, did not see the young men whom you sent.
26 Зато сада, господару, тако жив био Господ и тако жива била душа твоја, Господ ти не да да идеш на крв и да се осветиш својом руком. Зато сада нека буде непријатељима твојим као Навалу и свима који траже зла господару мом.
Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, since the LORD has withheld you from blood guiltiness, and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies, and those who seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
27 Ево дар што је донела слушкиња господару свом, да се да момцима који иду за господарем мојим.
Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.
28 Опрости слушкињи својој кривицу; јер ће Господ зацело начинити тврду кућу господару мом; јер ратове Господње води господар мој и није се нашло зло на теби никад за твог века.
Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the battles of the LORD; and evil shall not be found in you all your days.
29 И да устане човек да те гони и тражи душу твоју, душа ће господара мог бити везана у свежњу живих код Господа Бога твог, а душе ће непријатеља твојих бацити као из праћке.
Though men may rise up to pursue you, and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies, as from the hollow of a sling.
30 И кад Господ учини господару мом свако добро које ти је обрекао, и постави те вођом Израиљу,
It shall come to pass, when the LORD has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and shall have appointed you prince over Israel,
31 Неће ти бити спотицања ни саблазни срцу господара мог да је пролио крв низашта и да се сам осветио господар мој. И кад учини Господ добро господару мом, опоменућеш се слушкиње своје.
that this will have no cause of grief or a troubled conscience for my lord, that blood was shed without cause and that my lord has gained victory by his own hand. And when the LORD has done well with my lord, then remember your servant."
32 Тада рече Давид Авигеји: Да је благословен Господ Бог Израиљев, који те данас посла мени на сусрет!
David said to Abigail, "Blessed is the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me.
33 И да су благословене речи твоје, и ти да си благословена, која ме одврати данас да не идем на крв и осветим се својом руком.
Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, that have kept me this day from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.
34 Доиста, тако жив био Господ Бог Израиљев, који ми не даде да ти учиним зло, да ми ниси брже изашла на сусрет, не би остало Навалу до зоре ни оно што уза зид мокри.
For indeed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn't have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall."
35 И прими Давид из руке њене шта му беше донела, и рече јој: Иди с миром кући својој; ето, послушах те, и погледах на те.
So David received of her hand that which she had brought him: and he said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. Look, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request."
36 Потом се Авигеја врати к Навалу; а гле, код њега гозба у кући, као царска гозба, и срце Навалу беше весело, и беше пијан врло. Зато му она не рече ништа до јутра.
Abigail came to Nabal; and look, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
37 А ујутру кад се Навал отрезни, каза му жена све ово; а у њему обамре срце његово, и он поста као камен.
It happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
38 А кад прође до десет дана, удари Господ Навала, те умре.
It happened about ten days after, that the LORD struck Nabal, so that he died.
39 А кад Давид чу да је умро Навал, рече: Да је благословен Господ, који освети срамоту моју од Навала, и задржа слугу свог ода зла, а обрати Господ Навалу на главу злоћу његову. Потом посла Давид и поручи Авигеји да ће је узети за жену.
And David heard, and he said, "Blessed is the LORD, who has taken my side in the matter of Nabal's insult, and has kept back his servant from evil. The LORD has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head." David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to him as wife.
40 И слуге Давидове дођоше к Авигеји на Кармил, и рекоше јој говорећи: Давид нас посла к теби да те узме за жену.
When the servants of David had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, "David has sent us to you, to take you to be his wife."
41 А она уста и поклони се лицем до земље, и рече: Ево слушкиње твоје, да служи и да пере ноге слугама господара свог.
She got up and bowed herself with her face to the ground, and said, "Look, your servant is a lowly servant to wash the feet of your servants."
42 Потом брже уста Авигеја, и седе на магарца, и пет девојака њених пође за њом, и отиде за посланицима Давидовим, и поста му жена.
Then Abigail got up quickly and rode on a donkey, and with five female servants following her; and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.
43 А Давид узе и Ахиноаму из Језраела: и обе му беху жене.
David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.
44 Јер Саул даде Михалу кћер своју, жену Давидовом, Фалтију сину Лаисовом из Галима.
Now Saul had given Mikal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
