1 Samuel 29
1 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek; and the Israelites encamped by the spring which is in Jezreel.
A Filisteji skupiše svu vojsku svoju kod Afeka, a Izrailj stade u oko kod izvora u Jezraelu.
2 The lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds and by thousands; and David and his men passed on in the rear with Achish.
I knezovi Filistejski iðahu sa stotinama i tisuæama; a David i njegovi ljudi iðahu najposlije s Ahisom.
3 Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What about these Hebrews?” Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or rather these years? I have found no fault in him since he fell away until today.”
I rekoše knezovi Filistejski: što æe ti Jevreji? A Ahis reèe knezovima Filistejskim: nije li ovo David sluga cara Izrailjskoga Saula, koji je kod mene toliko vremena, toliko godina, i ne naðoh na njemu ništa otkako je dobjegao do ovoga dana?
4 But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, “Make the man return, that he may go back to his place where you have appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For with what should this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Should it not be with the heads of these men?
Ali se rasrdiše na nj knezovi Filistejski, i rekoše mu knezovi Filistejski: pošlji natrag toga èovjeka, neka se vrati u svoje mjesto gdje si ga postavio, i neka ne ide s nama u boj, da se ne okrene na nas u boju; jer èim bi se opet umilio gospodaru svojemu ako ne glavama ovijeh ljudi?
5 Is not this David, of whom people sang to one another in dances, saying, ‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands’?”
Nije li to David o kojem se pjevalo igrajuæi i govorilo: zgubi Saul svoju tisuæu, ali David svojih deset tisuæa?
6 Then Achish called David and said to him, “As the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight; for I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me to this day. Nevertheless, the lords do not favor you.
Tada Ahis dozva Davida, i reèe mu: tako bio živ Gospod, ti si pošten, i milo mi je da hodiš sa mnom u boj; jer ne naðoh nikakoga zla na tebi otkako si došao k meni do ovoga dana; ali nijesi po volji knezovima.
7 Therefore now return, and go in peace, that you not displease the lords of the Philistines.”
Nego vrati se i idi s mirom da ne uèiniš što što ne bi bilo milo knezovima Filistejskim.
8 David said to Achish, “But what have I done? What have you found in your servant so long as I have been before you to this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
A David reèe Ahisu: ali šta sam uèinio? šta li si našao na sluzi svojem otkako sam kod tebe do ovoga dana, da ne idem da se bijem s neprijateljima gospodara svojega cara?
9 Achish answered David, “I know that you are good in my sight, as an angel of God. Notwithstanding, the princes of the Philistines have said, ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’
A Ahis odgovarajuæi reèe Davidu: znam; doista si mi mio kao anðeo Božji; ali knezovi Filistejski rekoše: neka ne ide s nama u boj.
10 Therefore now rise up early in the morning with the servants of your lord who have come with you; and as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart.”
Nego ustani sjutra rano sa slugama gospodara svojega koje su došle s tobom; ustanite rano èim svane, pa idite.
11 So David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines; and the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
I urani David i ljudi njegovi, i otide rano, i vrati se u zemlju Filistejsku; a Filisteji otidoše u Jezrael.
