1 Samuel 28
1 And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered their armies together for warfare to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly, that thou shall go out with me in the army, thou and thy men.
U ono vrijeme Filistejci skupiše svoje čete za rat protiv Izraela. I Akiš reče Davidu: “Znaj da ćeš ići sa mnom na vojsku, ti i tvoji ljudi!”
2 And David said to Achish, Therefore thou shall know what thy servant will do. And Achish said to David, Therefore I will make thee my chief bodyguard forever.
A David odgovori Akišu: “Dobro! Sad ćeš vidjeti što će učiniti tvoj sluga!” A Akiš odvrati Davidu: “Dobro! Zato ću te postaviti da budeš mojim čuvarom zauvijek.”
3 Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him, and buried him in Ramah, even in his own city. And Saul had put away those who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land.
Samuel bijaše umro, a sav ga Izrael bijaše oplakao naričući za njim. Ukopali su ga u njegovu gradu Rami. A Šaul bijaše istjerao iz zemlje sve zazivače duhova i vračeve.
4 And the Philistines gathered themselves together, and came and encamped in Shunem. And Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped in Gilboa.
Dok su se Filistejci skupljali te došli i utaborili se kod Šunema, Šaul skupi sve Izraelce te se utabori na Gilboi.
5 And when Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.
Kad Šaul ugleda filistejski tabor, uplaši se i srce mu snažno zadrhta.
6 And when Saul inquired of Jehovah, Jehovah answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.
Šaul upita za savjet Jahvu, ali mu Jahve ne dade odgovora - ni u snima, ni po Urimu, ni preko proroka.
7 Then Saul said to his servants, Seek me a woman who has a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a familiar spirit at En-dor.
Zato Šaul reče svojim slugama: “Potražite mi ženu koja zaziva duhove da odem k njoj i upitam je.” A sluge mu odgovoriše: “Evo, u En Doru ima žena koja zaziva duhove.”
8 And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and went, he and two men with him. And they came to the woman by night, and he said, Divine to me, I pray thee, by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomever I shall name to thee.
Tada se Šaul preruši, obuče druge haljine i otputi se sa dva čovjeka. I dođe noću k onoj ženi i reče joj: “Daj mi vračaj pomoću duha i dozovi mi onoga koga ti reknem.”
9 And the woman said to him, Behold, thou know what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land. Why then do thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?
A žena mu odgovori: “Ta ti znaš što je učinio Šaul i kako je istrijebio iz zemlje zazivače duhova i vračeve. Zašto postavljaš zamke mome životu da me pogubiš?”
10 And Saul swore to her by Jehovah, saying, As Jehovah lives, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing.
A Šaul joj se zakle Jahvom govoreći: “Tako mi živog Jahve, nećeš biti ništa kriva za ovo!”
11 Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel.
Tada žena zapita: “Koga da ti dozovem?” A on odgovori: “Dozovi mi Samuela!”
12 And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried with a loud voice. And the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why have thou deceived me? For thou are Saul.
Kad žena ugleda Samuela, povika iza glasa, a onda reče Šaulu: “Zašto si me prevario? Ta ti si Šaul!”
13 And the king said to her, Be not afraid, for what do thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I see a god coming up out of the earth.
A kralj joj odvrati: “Ne boj se! Nego što vidiš?” A žena odgovori Šaulu: “Vidim nešto božansko što se diže iz zemlje.”
14 And he said to her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man comes up, and he is covered with a robe. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he bowed with his face to the ground, and did obeisance.
Šaul je upita: “Kakva je obličja?” A ona odgovori: “Izlazi starac, ogrnut plaštem.” Tada Šaul spozna da je to Samuel, pa pade licem do zemlje i pokloni se.
15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why have thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am greatly distressed, for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams. Therefore I have called thee, that thou may make known to me what I shall do.
Samuel upita Šaula: “Zašto si pomutio moj mir dozivajući me gore?” A Šaul odgovori: “U velikoj sam nevolji jer su Filistejci zavojštili na me, a Bog se okrenuo od mene i ne odgovara mi više ni preko proroka ni u snima. Zato sam dozvao tebe da me poučiš što da činim.”
16 And Samuel said, Why then do thou ask of me, since Jehovah departed from thee, and has become thine adversary?
A Samuel odvrati: “Zašto mene pitaš kad se Jahve odvratio od tebe i postao ti neprijateljem?
17 And Jehovah has done to thee, as he spoke by me. And Jehovah has torn the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbor, even to David.
Jahve ti je učinio kako ti je kazao preko mene: istrgao je kraljevstvo iz tvoje ruke i dao ga tvome suparniku, Davidu,
18 Because thou obeyed not the voice of Jehovah, and did not execute his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore Jehovah has done this thing to thee this day.
jer nisi poslušao riječi Jahvinih i jer nisi izvršio njegova žestokog gnjeva na Amaleku: stoga ti je Jahve danas ovako učinio.
19 Moreover Jehovah will deliver Israel also with thee into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow thou and thy sons shall be with me. Jehovah will also deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.
Jahve će predati, zajedno s tobom, i Izraela u filistejske ruke. Sutra ćeš sa svojim sinovima biti sa mnom, a i tabor izraelski Jahve će predati u filistejske ruke.”
20 Then Saul fell straightaway his full length upon the earth, and was greatly afraid because of the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night.
Šaul se užasnu i pade na zemlju kako je dug. Spopade ga silan strah od Samuelovih riječi. I ponestade mu snage, jer nije ništa jeo cijeli dan i cijelu noć.
21 And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was greatly troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy handmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spoke to me.
Kad ona žena dođe k Šaulu i opazi kako je sav zaplašen, reče mu: “Gle, tvoja je službenica poslušala tvoju riječ, stavila sam svoj život na kocku i poslušala tvoje zapovijedi koje si mi naložio.
22 Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee, and eat, that thou may have strength when thou go on thy way.
Zato sada poslušaj i ti riječi službenice svoje: dopusti da ti pružim zalogaj kruha; jedi da ti se vrati snaga te uzmogneš poći svojim putem.”
23 But he refused, and said, I will not eat. But his servants, together with the woman, constrained him, and he hearkened to their voice. So he arose from the ground, and sat upon the bed.
Ali on ne htjede nego reče: “Neću jesti!” Ali kad ga zaokupiše njegove sluge, zajedno sa ženom, posluša ih, ustade sa zemlje i sjede na postelju.
24 And the woman had a fatted calf in the house. And she hastened, and killed it, and she took flour, and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread of it.
Žena je imala kod kuće tele u tovu. Brzo ga zakla, zatim uze brašna, umijesi ga i napeče beskvasnoga kruha.
25 And she brought it before Saul, and before his servants, and they ate. Then they rose up, and went away that night.
Potom stavi sve pred Šaula i njegove ljude. Pošto su jeli, ustadoše i još iste noći krenuše natrag.
