1 Dnevnika 21
1 Ali usta sotona na Izrailja i navrati Davida da izbroji Izrailja.
Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to take a census of Israel.
2 I reèe David Joavu i knezovima narodnijem: idite, izbrojte sinove Izrailjeve od Virsaveje dori do Dana, pa mi javite da znam koliko ih ima.
David said to Joab and to the princes of the people, “Go, count Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring me word, that I may know how many there are.”
3 Ali Joav reèe: neka doda Gospod narodu svojemu koliko ga je sada još sto puta toliko; nijesu li, care gospodaru moj, svi sluge gospodaru mojemu? zašto traži to gospodar moj? zašto da bude na grijeh Izrailju?
Joab said, “May the LORD make his people a hundred times as many as they are. But, my lord the king, aren’t they all my lord’s servants? Why does my lord require this thing? Why will he be a cause of guilt to Israel?”
4 Ali rijeè careva nadjaèa Joava. I tako otide Joav i obide svega Izrailja, pa se vrati u Jerusalim.
Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed and went throughout all Israel, then came to Jerusalem.
5 I dade Joav broj prepisanoga naroda Davidu; i bijaše svega naroda Izrailjeva tisuæa tisuæa i sto tisuæa ljudi koji mahahu maèem, a naroda Judina èetiri stotine i sedamdeset tisuæa ljudi koji mahahu maèem.
Joab gave the sum of the census of the people to David. All those of Israel were one million one hundred thousand men who drew a sword; and in Judah were four hundred seventy thousand men who drew a sword.
6 A plemena Levijeva i Venijaminova ne izbroji s njima, jer mrska bješe Joavu zapovijest careva.
But he didn’t count Levi and Benjamin among them, for the king’s word was abominable to Joab.
7 A ne bješe mila Bogu ta stvar; zato udari Izrailja.
God was displeased with this thing; therefore he struck Israel.
8 I David reèe Bogu: sagriješih veoma što to uradih; ali uzmi bezakonje sluge svojega, jer veoma ludo radih.
David said to God, “I have sinned greatly, in that I have done this thing. But now put away, I beg you, the iniquity of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.”
9 A Gospod reèe Gadu vidiocu Davidovu govoreæi:
The LORD spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,
10 Idi kaži Davidu i reci: ovako veli Gospod: troje ti dajem, izberi jedno da ti uèinim.
“Go and speak to David, saying, ‘The LORD says, “I offer you three things. Choose one of them, that I may do it to you.”’”
11 I doðe Gad k Davidu i reèe mu: tako veli Gospod, biraj:
So Gad came to David and said to him, “The LORD says, ‘Take your choice:
12 Ili glad za tri godine, ili tri mjeseca da bježiš od neprijatelja svojih i maè neprijatelja tvojih da te stiže, ili tri dana maè Gospodnji i pomor da bude u zemlji i anðeo Gospodnji da ubija po svijem krajevima Izrailjevijem. Sada dakle gledaj što æu odgovoriti onomu koji me je poslao.
either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before your foes, while the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days of the sword of the LORD, even pestilence in the land, and the LORD’s angel destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him who sent me.’”
13 A David reèe Gadu: u tjeskobi sam ljutoj; ali neka zapadnem Gospodu u ruke, jer je veoma velika milost njegova; a ljudima da ne zapadnem u ruke.
David said to Gad, “I am in distress. Let me fall, I pray, into the LORD’s hand, for his mercies are very great. Don’t let me fall into man’s hand.”
14 I tako pusti Gospod pomor na Izrailja, te pade Izrailja sedamdeset tisuæa ljudi.
So the LORD sent a pestilence on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell.
15 I posla Gospod anðela u Jerusalim da ga ubija; i kad ubijaše, pogleda Gospod i sažali mu se sa zla; i reèe anðelu koji ubijaše: dosta, spusti ruku svoju. A anðeo Gospodnji stajaše kod gumna Ornana Jevusejina,
God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it. As he was about to destroy, the LORD saw, and he relented of the disaster, and said to the destroying angel, “It is enough. Now withdraw your hand.” the LORD’s angel was standing by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 A David podiže oèi svoje i vidje anðela Gospodnjega gdje stoji izmeðu zemlje i neba a u ruci mu go maè, kojim bješe zamahnuo na Jerusalim; i pade David i starješine nièice, obuèeni u kostrijet.
David lifted up his eyes, and saw the LORD’s angel 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 on their faces.
17 I reèe David Bogu: nijesam li ja zapovjedio da se izbroji narod? ja sam dakle zgriješio i zlo uèinio; a te ovce šta su uèinile? Gospode Bože moj, neka se ruka tvoja obrati na me i na dom oca mojega; ali ne na taj narod da ga potre.
David said to God, “Isn’t it I who commanded the people to be counted? It is even I who have sinned and done very wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let your hand, O LORD my God, be against me and against my father’s house; but not against your people, that they should be plagued.”
18 Tada anðeo Gospodnji reèe Gadu da kaže Davidu da izide gore i naèini oltar Gospodu na gumnu Ornana Jevusejina.
Then the LORD’s angel commanded Gad to tell David that David should go up and raise an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 I izide David po rijeèi Gadovoj, koju mu reèe u ime Gospodnje.
David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the LORD’s name.
20 A Ornan okrenuv se ugleda anðela, i sakri se sa èetiri sina svoja. Jer Ornan vrsijaše pšenicu.
Ornan turned back and saw the angel; and his four sons who were with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21 Utom doðe David do Ornana; i pogledav Ornan kad vidje Davida izide iz gumna i pokloni se Davidu licem do zemlje.
As David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22 Tada reèe David Ornanu: daj mi to gumno da naèinim na njemu oltar Gospodu; za novce koliko vrijedi daj mi ga, da bi prestao pomor u narodu.
Then David said to Ornan, “Sell me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar to the LORD on it. You shall sell it to me for the full price, that the plague may be stopped from afflicting the people.”
23 A Ornan reèe Davidu: uzmi i neka èini gospodar moj car što mu je drago; evo dajem i volove za žrtve paljenice, i kola za drva, i pšenicu za dar; sve to dajem.
Ornan said to David, “Take it for yourself, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes. Behold, I give the oxen for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meal offering. I give it all.”
24 A car David reèe Ornanu: ne, nego æu kupiti za novce šta vrijedi, jer neæu da prinesem Gospodu što je tvoje ni da prinesem žrtve paljenice poklonjene.
King David said to Ornan, “No, but I will most certainly buy it for the full price. For I will not take that which is yours for the LORD, nor offer a burnt offering that costs me nothing.”
25 I dade David Ornanu za ono mjesto na mjeru šest stotina sikala zlata.
So David gave to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
26 I ondje naèini David oltar Gospodu, i prinese žrtve paljenice i žrtve zahvalne; i prizva Gospoda, i usliši ga spustivši oganj s neba na oltar žrtve paljenice.
David built an altar to the LORD there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on the LORD; and he answered him from the sky by fire on the altar of burnt offering.
27 I zapovjedi Gospod anðelu, te vrati maè svoj u korice.
Then the LORD commanded the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath.
28 U ono vrijeme vidjev David da ga Gospod usliši na gumnu Ornana Jevusejina prinošaše žrtve ondje.
At that time, when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
29 A šator Gospodnji, koji naèini Mojsije u pustinji, i oltar za žrtve paljenice bijaše u to vrijeme na visini u Gavaonu.
For the LORD’s tabernacle, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30 I David ne može iæi k njemu da traži Boga, jer se uplaši od maèa anðela Gospodnjega.
But David couldn’t go before it to inquire of God, for he was afraid because of the sword of the LORD’s angel.
