< 2 Samuelova 1 >

1 A po smrti Saulovoj, kad se David vrati pobivši Amalike i osta u Siklagu dva dana,
It happened after the death of Saul, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and he stayed two days in Ziklag.
2 Treæega dana, gle, doðe jedan iz vojske Saulove razdrtijeh haljina i glave posute prahom; i došav k Davidu pade na zemlju i pokloni se.
It happened on the third day, that, look, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And it came about when he came to David that he fell to the ground and paid homage.
3 I reèe mu David: otkuda ideš? A on mu reèe: iz okola Izrailjskoga utekoh.
David said to him, "Where do you come from?" He said to him, "I have escaped out of the camp of Israel."
4 A David mu reèe: šta bi? kaži mi. A on reèe: narod pobježe iz boja; i mnogo naroda pade i izgibe, pogibe i Saul i sin mu Jonatan.
David said to him, "How did it go? Please tell me." He answered, "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."
5 A David reèe momku koji mu donese glas: kako znaš da je poginuo Saul i sin mu Jonatan?
David said to the young man who had told him this, "How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?"
6 A momak koji mu donese glas reèe: sluèajno doðoh na goru Gelvuju, a to se Saul naslonio na koplje svoje, kola i konjici približavahu se k njemu.
The young man who told him said, "I happened to be on Mount Gilboa and saw Saul leaning on his spear. And look, the chariots and the horsemen were closing in on him.
7 A on obazrevši se natrag ugleda me, pa me viknu, a ja mu rekoh: evo me.
When he turned around he saw me, and called to me. I answered, 'Here I am.'
8 A on mi reèe: ko si? A ja mu rekoh: Amalik sam.
He said to me, 'Who are you?' I answered him, 'I am an Amalekite.'
9 A on mi reèe: pristupi k meni i ubij me; jer me obuzeše muke, a još je sasvijem duša u meni.
He said to me, 'Please stand beside me, and kill me; for anguish has taken hold of me, yet there is life in me still.'
10 I pristupih k njemu i ubih ga, jer sam znao da neæe ostati živ pošto pade; i uzeh vijenac carski koji mu bješe na glavi i grivnu koja mu bješe na ruci, i evo donesoh gospodaru svojemu.
So I stood beside him, and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord."
11 Tada David zgrabi haljine na sebi i razdrije ih; tako i svi ljudi koji bijahu s njim.
Then David took hold on his clothes, and tore them; and likewise all the men who were with him.
12 I ridaše i plakaše, i postiše do veèera za Saulom i za Jonatanom sinom njegovijem i za narodom Gospodnjim i za domom Izrailjevijem što izgiboše od maèa.
They mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword.
13 I reèe David momku koji mu donese glas: odakle si? A on reèe: ja sam sin jednoga došljaka Amalika.
David said to the young man who had told him, "Where are you from?" He answered, "I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite."
14 Reèe mu David: kako te nije bilo strah podiæi ruku svoju i ubiti pomazanika Gospodnjega?
David said to him, "How is it that you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?"
15 I dozva David jednoga izmeðu momaka svojih i reèe: hodi, pogubi ga. A on ga udari, te umrije.
David called one of the young men, and said, "Go near, and fall on him." He struck him, so that he died.
16 I reèe mu David: krv tvoja na tvoju glavu; jer tvoja usta svjedoèiše na te govoreæi: ja sam ubio pomazanika Gospodnjega.
David said to him, "Your blood be on your head; for your mouth has testified against you, saying, 'I have slain the LORD's anointed.'"
17 Tada David narica ovako za Saulom i za Jonatanom sinom njegovijem,
And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son,
18 I izgovori, da bi se uèili sinovi Judini luku, i eto je napisano u knjizi istinitoga:
and said it should be taught to the people of Judah. Look, it is written in the book of Jashar.
19 Diko Izrailjeva! na tvojim visinama pobijeni su; kako padoše junaci?
"Your glory, Israel, is slain on your high places. How the mighty have fallen.
20 Ne kazujte u Gatu, i ne razglašujte po ulicama Askalonskim, da se ne vesele kæeri Filistejske i da ne igraju kæeri neobrezanijeh.
Do not tell it in Gath. Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 Gore Gelvujske! ne padala rosa ni dažd na vas, i ne rodilo polje za prinos, jer je tu baèen štit s junaka, štit Saulov, kao da nije pomazan uljem.
You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain on you, nor fields of offerings. For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away. The shield of Saul was not anointed with oil.
22 Bez krvi pobijenijeh i bez masti od junaka nije se vraæao luk Jonatanov, niti je maè Saulov dolazio natrag prazan.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan's bow did not turn back. Saul's sword did not return empty.
23 Saul i Jonatan, mili i dragi za života, ni na smrti se ne rastaviše; lakši od orlova bijahu.
Saul and Jonathan, beloved and lovely, not separated. Lovely in their life, and in their death they were not separated. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.
24 Kæeri Izrailjeve! plaèite za Saulom, koji vas je oblaèio u skerlet lijepo, i kitio vas zlatnijem zakladima po haljinama vašim.
You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.
25 Kako padoše junaci u boju! Jonatan kako pogibe na tvojim visinama!
How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle. Jonathan is slain on your high places.
26 Žao mi je za tobom, brate Jonatane; bio si mi mio vrlo; veæa mi je bila ljubav tvoja od ljubavi ženske.
I grieve for you, my brother Jonathan. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love for me was a wonder, more than the love of women.
27 Kako padoše junaci, i propade oružje ubojito!
How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished."
