1 Књига Самуилова 30
1 И трећи дан дође Давид са својим људима у Сиклаг, а Амалици беху ударили на јужну страну и на Сиклаг, и развалили Сиклаг и огњем га спалили.
Three days later, when David and his men arrived at Ziklag, [they discovered that] men of the Amalek people-group had raided Ziklag and [towns in] the southern part of Judah. They had destroyed Ziklag and burned down all the buildings.
2 И беху заробили женскиње које беше онде, и мало и велико; али не беху убили никога, него их беху одвели и отишли својим путем.
They had captured the women [and the children] and everyone else, and had taken them away. But they had not killed anyone.
3 И кад Давид дође са својим људима у град, а то град спаљен огњем, и жене њихове и синови и кћери њихове заробљене.
When David and his men came to Ziklag, they saw that the town had been burned, and that their wives and sons and daughters had been captured and taken away.
4 И подиже Давид и народ који беше с њим глас свој, и плакаше докле већ не могоше плакати.
David and his men cried loudly, until [they were so weak that] they could not cry [any more].
5 И обе жене Давидове заробише се, Ахиноама из Језраела и Авигеја из Кармила, жена Навалова.
David’s two wives, Ahinoam and Abigail, had also been taken away.
6 И Давид беше на муци великој, јер народ говораше да га заспу камењем; јер жалостан беше сав народ, сваки за синовима својим и за кћерима својим; али се Давид охрабри у Господу Богу свом.
David’s men were threatening to [kill him by] throwing stones at him, because they were very angry because their sons and daughters [had been taken away]. David was very distressed, but Yahweh his God gave him strength.
7 И рече Давид Авијатару свештенику сину Ахимелеховом: Узми оплећак за ме. И узе Авијатар оплећак за Давида.
David [did not know what to do, so he] said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring to me the sacred vest.” So Abiathar brought it,
8 И упита Давид Господа говорећи: Хоћу ли потерати ту чету? Хоћу ли је стигнути? А Господ му рече: Потерај, јер ћеш зацело стигнути и избавићеш.
and David asked Yahweh, “Should I [and my men] pursue the men [who took our families]? Will we [be able to] catch up to them?” Yahweh answered [by means of the stones in Abiathar’s sacred pouch], “Yes, pursue them. You will catch up to them, and you will be able to rescue [your families].”
9 И пође Давид са шест стотина људи што беху с њим, и дођоше до потока Восора; и онде осташе једни.
So David and the 600 men who were with him left, and they came to the Besor Ravine. Some of his men stayed there [with some of their supplies].
10 А Давид са четири стотине људи потера даље, а двеста људи оста, који сусташе те не могоше прећи преко потока Восора.
David and 400 men continued to pursue [the men who captured their families]. The other 200 men stayed there at the ravine, because they were so exhausted that they could not cross the ravine.
11 И нађоше једног Мисирца у пољу, и доведоше га к Давиду, и дадоше му хлеба да једе и воде да пије,
[As David and the 400 men were going], they saw a man from Egypt in a field; so they took him to David. They gave the man some water to drink and some food to eat.
12 И дадоше му груду смокава и два грозда сува. И поједавши опорави се, јер три дана и три ноћи не беше ништа јео нити воде пио.
They also gave him a piece of fig cake and two clusters/packs of raisins. The man had not had anything to eat or drink for three days and nights, but [after he ate and drank] he felt refreshed.
13 Тада му рече Давид: Чији си ти? И одакле си? А он рече: Ја сам родом Мисирац, слуга једног Амалика, а господар ме остави, јер се разболех пре три дана.
David asked him, “Who is your master? And where do you come from?” He replied, “I am from Egypt. I am a slave of a man from the Amalek people-group. Three days ago my master left me here, because I was sick [and I was not able to go with them].
14 Ударисмо на јужну страну херетејску и на Јудину и на јужну страну Халевову, и Сиклаг спалисмо огњем.
We had raided the southern part of Judah where the Kereth people-group live, and some other towns in Judah, and the area south [of Hebron city] where the descendants of Caleb live. We also burned Ziklag [town].”
15 А Давид му рече: Би ли ме могао одвести к тој чети? А он рече: Закуни ми се Богом да ме нећеш погубити ни издати у руке мом господару, па ћу те одвести к тој чети.
David asked him, “Can you lead us to this group of raiders?” He replied, “Yes, [I will do that] if you ask God to listen while you promise that you will not kill me or give me back to my master. If you promise that, I will take you to them.”
16 И одведе га; и гле, они се беху раширили по свој земљи оној једући и пијући и веселећи се великим пленом који запленише из земље филистејске и из земље Јудине.
[David agreed to do that, ] so the man from Egypt led David [and his men] to where the men from the Amalek people-group were. Those men were lying on the ground, eating and drinking and celebrating because of having captured many things from the Philistia and Judah areas.
17 И Давид их би од вечера до вечера другог дана, те нико не утече, осим четири стотине младића, који седавши на камиле побегоше.
David [and his men] fought against them from sunset that day until the evening of the following day. Four hundred of them escaped and rode away on camels, but none of the others escaped.
18 И тако избави Давид све што беху узели Амалици, и обе жене своје избави Давид.
David rescued his two wives, and he and his men got back everything else that the men of the Amalek people-group had taken.
19 И ништа не изгубише, ни мало ни велико, ни синове ни кћери, ни шта од плена и од свега што им беху узели; све поврати Давид.
Nothing was missing. They took all their people back [to Ziklag]—young people and old people, [their wives], their sons and their daughters. They also recovered all the other things that the men of the Amalek people-group had taken from Ziklag.
20 Такође узе Давид и остале све овце и волове, које гонећи пред својом стоком говораху: Ово је плен Давидов.
They took with them the sheep and cattle that had been captured, and his men caused those animals to go in front of them, saying, “These are animals that we captured in the battle; they belong to David!”
21 И кад се врати Давид к оним двеста људи који беху сустали те не могаше ићи за Давидом, и које остави на потоку Восору, изиђоше на сусрет Давиду и народу који беше с њим. И Давид приступивши к народу поздрави их.
David and his men got back to where the other 200 men were waiting, the men who did not go with David because they were very exhausted. They had stayed at Besor Ravine. [When they saw David and his men coming], they went out to greet them. And David [greeted them and] said to them, “I hope that things are going well with you!”
22 Тада проговорише сви зли и неваљали људи између оних који су ишли с Давидом, и рекоше: Што нису ишли с нама, зато да им не дамо од плена који избависмо, него сваки жену своју и синове своје нека узму, па нек иду.
But some of the men who had gone with David, men who were evil and troublemakers, said, “These 200 men did not go with us. So we should not give to them any of the things that we recovered/captured. Each of them should take only his wife and children and go [back to their homes].”
23 Али Давид рече: Немојте тако чинити, браћо моја, с оним што нам је дао Господ који нас је сачувао и дао нам у руке чету која беше изашла на нас.
David replied, “No, my fellow Israelis, it would not be right to divide up like that the things that Yahweh has allowed us to capture. Yahweh has protected us and enabled us to defeat the enemies who attacked our town.
24 И ко ће вас послушати у томе? Јер какав је део оном који иде у бој такав је и оном који остане код пртљага; једнако треба да поделе.
(Who will pay attention to you if you say things like that?/No one will pay attention to you if you say things like that.) [RHQ] The men who stayed here with our supplies will get the same amount that the men who went into the battle will get. They will all receive the same amount.”
25 Тако би од тог дана унапредак, и то поста уредба и закон у Израиљу до данас.
David made that to be a law [DOU] for the Israeli people, and that is still a law in Israel.
26 И кад дође Давид у Сиклаг, посла он плена старешинама Јудиним, пријатељима својим, говорећи: Ево вам дар од плена непријатеља Господњих;
When David [and all the others] arrived in Ziklag, David sent to his friends who were leaders in Judah some of the things that they had captured from the Amalek people-group. He said to them, “Here is a present for you. These are things that we took from Yahweh’s enemies.”
27 Онима у Ветиљу, и онима у Рамоту на југу, и онима у Јатиру,
[Here is a list of the cities and towns to whose leaders David sent gifts: ] Bethel, Ramoth in the southern part of Judah, Jattir,
28 И онима у Ароиру, и онима у Сифмоту, и онима у Естемоји,
Aroer, Siphmoth, Eshtemoa,
29 И онима у Рахалу, и онима у градовима јерамеилским, и онима у градовима кенејским,
Racal, the cities where the descendants of Jehrameel lived and the cities where the Ken people-group lived,
30 И онима у Орми, и онима у Хор-Асану, и онима у Атаху,
Hormah, Bor-Ashan, Athach,
31 И онима у Хеврону и по свим местима у која је долазио Давид с људима својим.
Hebron, and all the other places where David and his men had gone [when they were hiding from Saul].
