1 Samuel 4
1 And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ezer: and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
I što reèe Samuilo, zbi se svemu Izrailju. Jer Izrailj izide na vojsku na Filisteje, i stadoše u oko kod Even-Ezera, a Filisteji stadoše u oko u Afeku.
2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel: and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines; and they slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.
A Filisteji se uvrstaše prema Izrailju, i kad se otvori boj, razbiše Filisteji Izrailja, i izgibe ih u boju u polju oko èetiri tisuæe ljudi.
3 And when the people were come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Wherefore hath Jehovah smitten us to-day before the Philistines? Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of Shiloh unto us, that it may come among us, and save us out of the hand of our enemies.
I kad narod doðe u oko, rekoše starješine Izrailjeve: zašto nas danas razbi Gospod pred Filistejima? da donesemo iz Siloma kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega, da bude meðu nama i izbavi nas iz ruku neprijatelja naših.
4 So the people sent to Shiloh; and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sitteth [above] the cherubim: and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.
I narod posla u Silom da donesu odande kovèeg zavjeta Gospoda nad vojskama, koji sjedi na heruvimima; a bijahu ondje kod kovèega zavjeta Gospodnjega dva sina Ilijeva, Ofnije i Fines.
5 And when the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came into the camp, all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth rang again.
A kad doðe kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega u oko, povika sav Izrailj od radosti da zemlja zajeèa.
6 And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What meaneth the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of Jehovah was come into the camp.
A Filisteji èuvši veselu viku rekoše: kakva je to vika vesela u okolu Jevrejskom? I razumješe da je došao kovèeg Gospodnji u oko njihov.
7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.
I uplašiše se Filisteji kad rekoše: Bog je došao u oko. I govorahu: teško nama! jer to nije bivalo prije.
8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? these are the gods that smote the Egyptians with all manner of plagues in the wilderness.
Teško nama! ko æe nas izbaviti iz ruku tijeh silnijeh bogova? to su bogovi što pobiše Misirce u pustinji svakojakim mukama.
9 Be strong, and quit yourselves like men, O ye Philistines, that ye be not servants unto the Hebrews, as they have been to you: quit yourselves like men, and fight.
Ohrabrite se, i budite ljudi, o Filisteji! da ne služite Jevrejima kao što su oni vama služili; budite ljudi, i udrite.
10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled every man to his tent: and there was a very great slaughter; for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
I Filisteji udariše, i Izrailjci se opet razbiše i pobjegoše k šatorima svojim; i boj bješe vrlo velik, jer pade iz Izrailja trideset tisuæa pješaka.
11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
I kovèeg Božji bi otet, i dva sina Ilijeva Ofnije i Fines pogiboše.
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army, and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes rent, and with earth upon his head.
A jedan izmeðu sinova Venijaminovih pobježe iz boja, i doðe u Silom isti dan razdrtijeh haljina i glave posute prahom.
13 And when he came, lo, Eli was sitting upon his seat by the wayside watching; for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city, and told it, all the city cried out.
I kad doðe, gle, Ilije sjeðaše na stolici ukraj puta pogledajuæi; jer srce njegovo bijaše u strahu za kovèeg Božji. I došav onaj èovjek u grad kaza glase, i stade vika svega grada.
14 And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What meaneth the noise of this tumult? And the man hasted, and came and told Eli.
A Ilije èuvši viku reèe: kakva je to vreva? I èovjek brže dotrèa da javi Iliju.
15 Now Eli was ninety and eight years old; and his eyes were set, so that he could not see.
A Iliju bijaše devedeset i osam godina, i oèi mu bijahu potamnjele, te ne mogaše vidjeti.
16 And the man said unto Eli, I am he that came out of the army, and I fled to-day out of the army. And he said, How went the matter, my son?
I reèe èovjek Iliju: ja idem iz boja, utekoh danas iz boja. A on reèe: šta bi, sine?
17 And he that brought the tidings answered and said, Israel is fled before the Philistines, and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
A glasnik odgovarajuæi reèe: pobježe Izrailj ispred Filisteja, i izgibe mnogo naroda, i oba sina tvoja pogiboše, Ofnije i Fines, i kovèeg Božji otet je.
18 And it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God, that [Eli] fell from off his seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
A kad spomenu kovèeg Božji, pade Ilije sa stolice nauznako kod vrata i slomi vrat i umrije, jer bijaše èovjek star i težak. On bi sudija Izrailju èetrdeset godina.
19 And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to be delivered: and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and brought forth; for her pains came upon her.
A snaha njegova, žena Finesova, bijaše trudna i na tom doba, pa èuvši glas da je kovèeg Božji otet i da joj je poginuo svekar i muž, savi se i porodi, jer joj doðoše bolovi.
20 And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not; for thou hast brought forth a son. But she answered not, neither did she regard it.
I kad umiraše, rekoše joj koje stajahu kod nje: ne boj se, rodila si sina. Ali ona ne odgovori, niti hajaše za to.
21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel; because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
Nego djetetu nadje ime Ihavod govoreæi: otide slava od Izrailja; jer kovèeg Božji bi otet, i svekar joj i muž pogiboše.
22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel; for the ark of God is taken.
Zato reèe: otide slava od Izrailja; jer bi otet kovèeg Božji.
