< 2 Samuel 24 >

1 Again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them, saying, "Go, number Israel and Judah."
А Господ се опет разгневи на Израиља, и надражи Давида на њих говорећи: Хајде изброј Израиља и Јуду.
2 The king said to Joab and the captains of the army, who were with him, "Now go back and forth through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and number the people, that I may know the sum of the people."
И рече цар Јоаву, војводи свом: Прођи по свим племенима Израиљевим од Дана до Вирсавеје, и избројте народ, да знам колико има народа.
3 Joab said to the king, "Now may the LORD your God add to the people, however many they may be, one hundred times; and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king delight in this thing?"
А Јоав рече цару: Нека дода Господ Бог твој к народу колико га је сад још сто пута толико, и да цар господар мој види својим очима; али зашто цар господар мој хоће то?
4 Notwithstanding, the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the army. Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king, to number the children of Israel.
Али реч царева би јача од Јоава и војвода; и отиде Јоав и војводе од цара да преброје народ Израиљев.
5 They crossed over the Jordan and began at Aroer, and from the city that is in the middle of the valley of Gad; then on to Jazer.
И прешавши преко Јордана стадоше у логор у Ароиру, с десне стране града, који је на средини потока Гадовог, и код Јазира.
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the region of the Hethites, to Kedesh; and they came to Dan, and around to Sidon,
Потом дођоше у Галад, и у доњу земљу Одсију, а одатле отидоше у Дан-Јан и у околину сидонску.
7 and came to the stronghold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, at Beersheba.
Потом дођоше до града Тира и у све градове јевејске и хананејске; и отидоше на јужну страну Јудину у Вирсавеју.
8 So when they had gone back and forth through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
И обишавши сву земљу вратише се у Јерусалим после девет месеци и двадесет дана.
9 Joab gave up the sum of the numbering of the people to the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
И Јоав даде цару број преписаног народа; и беше од Израиља осам стотина хиљада људи за војску који махаху мачем, а људи од Јуде пет стотина хиљада.
10 David's heart struck him after that he had numbered the people. David said to the LORD, "I have sinned greatly in that which I have done. But now, LORD, put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly."
Тада Давида такну у срце, пошто преброја народ, и рече Давид Господу: Сагреших веома што то урадих. Али, Господе, узми безакоње слуге свог, јер веома лудо радих.
11 When David rose up in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
А кад Давид уста ујутру, дође реч Господња Гаду, пророку који беше Давиду виделац, и рече:
12 "Go and speak to David, 'Thus says the LORD, "I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you."'"
Иди и кажи Давиду: Овако вели Господ: Троје ти дајем, изабери једно да ти учиним.
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said to him, "Shall three years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days' pestilence in your land? Now answer, and consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me."
И дође Гад к Давиду, и каза му говорећи: Хоћеш ли ти да буде седам гладних година у земљи твојој, или да бежиш три месеца од непријатеља својих и они да те гоне, или да буде три дана помор у твојој земљи? Сад промисли и гледај шта ћу одговорити Ономе који ме је послао.
14 David said to Gad, "I am in distress. Let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for his mercies are great. Let me not fall into the hand of man."
А Давид рече Гаду: У тескоби сам љутој; али нека западнемо Господу у руке, јер је милост Његова велика; а људима да не западнем у руке.
15 So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel from the morning even to the appointed time; and the destruction began among the people. And there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.
И тако пусти Господ помор на Израиља од јутра до одређеног времена, и помре народа од Дана до Вирсавеје седамдесет хиљада људи.
16 When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented of the disaster, and said to the angel who destroyed the people, "It is enough. Now stay your hand." The angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. And David lifted up his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between earth and the sky, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell down on their faces.
А кад анђео пружи руку своју на Јерусалим да га убија, сажали се Господу са зла, и рече анђелу који убијаше народ: Доста, спусти руку. А анђео Господњи беше код гумна Орне Јевусејина.
17 David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who struck the people, and said, "Look, I have sinned, and I, the shepherd, have done great evil. But these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand be against me, and against my father's house."
А Давид кад виде анђела где бије народ, проговори и рече Господу: Ево, ја сам згрешио, ја сам зло учинио, а те овце шта су учиниле? Нека се рука Твоја обрати на мене и на дом оца мог.
18 Gad came that day to David, and said to him, "Go up, build an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite."
Потом опет дође Гад к Давиду исти дан, и рече му: Иди, начини Господу олтар на гумну Орне Јевусејина.
19 David went up according to the saying of Gad, as the LORD commanded.
И отиде Давид по речи Гадовој, како Господ заповеди.
20 And Araunah looked out and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him, so Araunah went out and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Тада Орна обазревши се угледа цара и слуге његове где иду к њему; и отиде Орна и поклони се цару лицем до земље,
21 And Araunah said, "Why has my lord the king come to his servant?" David said, "To buy your threshing floor, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people."
И рече: Што је дошао цар господар мој слузи свом? А Давид рече: Да купим од тебе то гумно, да начиним на њему олтар Господу да би престао помор у народу.
22 Araunah said to David, "Let my lord the king take and offer up what seems good to him. Look, the cattle for the burnt offering, and the threshing instruments and the yokes of the oxen for the wood."
А Орна рече Давиду: Нека узме цар господар мој и принесе на жртву шта му је воља; ево волова за жртву паљеницу, и кола и јармова волујских за дрва.
23 All these Araunah gave to the king." And Araunah said to the king, "May the LORD your God accept you."
Све то даваше цару Орна као цар, и рече Орна цару: Господ Бог твој нека те милостиво прими.
24 The king said to Araunah, "No; but I will most certainly buy it from you for a price. I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God which cost me nothing." So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
А цар рече Орни: Не; него ћу купити од тебе по цени, нити ћу принети Господу Богу свом жртву паљеницу поклоњену. И тако купи Давид гумно и волове за педесет сикала сребра.
25 David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD responded to the plea for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
И онде начини Давид олтар Господу, и принесе жртве паљенице и жртве захвалне. И Господ се умилостиви земљи, и преста помор у Израиљу.
