< 1 Samuel 11 >

1 Then Nahash the Ammonite came up, and encamped against Jabesh–gilead: and all the men of Jabesh said unto Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
Tada doðe Nas Amonac, i stade u oko prema Javisu Galadovu. I svi ljudi iz Javisa rekoše Nasu: uèini vjeru s nama, pa æemo ti služiti.
2 And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, On this condition will I make a covenant with you, that I may thrust out all your right eyes, and lay it for a reproach upon all Israel.
A Nas Amonac odgovori im: ovako æu uèiniti vjeru s vama: da vam svakome iskopam desno oko, i tu sramotu uèinim svemu Izrailju.
3 And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days’ respite, that we may send messengers unto all the coasts of Israel: and then, if there be no man to save us, we will come out to thee.
A starješine Javiske rekoše mu: ostavi nam sedam dana, da pošljemo poslanike u sve krajeve Izrailjeve; pa ako ne bude nikoga da nas izbavi, tada æemo izaæi k tebi.
4 Then came the messengers to Gibeah of Saul, and told the tidings in the ears of the people: and all the people lifted up their voices, and wept.
I doðoše poslanici u Gavaju Saulovu, i kazaše ove rijeèi narodu; tada sav narod podiže glas svoj, i plakahu.
5 And, behold, Saul came after the herd out of the field; and Saul said, What aileth the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.
A gle, Saul iðaše za govedima svojim iz polja, i reèe: šta je narodu te plaèe? I kazaše mu šta su poruèili Javišani.
6 And the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.
Tada siðe duh Božji na Saula kad èu te rijeèi, i on se razgnjevi vrlo.
7 And he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coasts of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whosoever cometh not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen. And the fear of Yhwh fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
Pa uze dva vola, i isijeèe ih na komade, i razasla ih u sve krajeve Izrailjeve po istijem poslanicima poruèivši: ko ne poðe za Saulom i za Samuilom, ovako æe biti s govedima njegovijem. I strah Gospodnji popade narod, te izidoše jednodušno.
8 And when he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
I izbroji ih u Vezeku, i bješe sinova Izrailjevijeh trista tisuæa, a sinova Judinijeh trideset tisuæa.
9 And they said unto the messengers that came, Thus shall ye say unto the men of Jabesh–gilead, To morrow, by that time the sun be hot, ye shall have help. And the messengers came and shewed it to the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.
Potom rekoše poslanicima koji bijahu došli: ovako recite ljudima u Javisu Galadovu: sjutra æete se izbaviti, kad ogrije sunce. I poslanici se vratiše, i javiše ovo Javišanima, i oni se obradovaše.
10 Therefore the men of Jabesh said, To morrow we will come out unto you, and ye shall do with us all that seemeth good unto you.
I rekoše Javišani Amoncima: sjutra æemo izaæi k vama, da uèinite od nas što vam bude drago.
11 And it was so on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the army in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together.
I sjutradan razdijeli Saul narod u tri èete, i uðoše usred okola o jutrenjoj straži, i biše Amonce dokle sunce ne ogrija, i koji ostaše, raspršaše se da ne ostaše ni dvojica zajedno.
12 And the people said unto Samuel, Who is he that said, Shall Saul reign over us? bring the men, that we may put them to death.
Tada reèe narod Samuilu: koji je ono što reèe: eda li æe Saul carovati nad nama? dajte ih da ih pogubimo.
13 And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day: for to day Yhwh hath wrought salvation in Israel.
Ali Saul reèe: da se ne pogubi danas niko, jer je danas Gospod uèinio spasenje u Izrailju.
14 Then said Samuel to the people, Come, and let us go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there.
Tad Samuilo reèe narodu: hajdete da idemo u Galgal, da ondje ponovimo carstvo.
15 And all the people went to Gilgal; and there they made Saul king before Yhwh in Gilgal; and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before Yhwh; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.
I sav narod otide u Galgal, i postaviše ondje Saula carem pred Gospodom u Galgalu, i ondje prinesoše žrtve zahvalne pred Gospodom. I proveseli se ondje Saul i sav Izrailj veoma.
