1 Samuel 22

1 So David went away from there and took cover in a strong place at Adullam; and his brothers and all his father's people, hearing of it, went down to him there.

Tada David otide odande i uteèe u peæinu Odolamsku. A kad to èuše braæa njegova i sav dom oca njegova, doðoše onamo k njemu.

2 And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.

I skupiše se oko njega koji god bijahu u nevolji i koji bijahu zaduženi i koji god bijahu tužna srca; i on im posta poglavica; i bješe ih s njim oko èetiri stotine ljudi.

3 And from there David went to Mizpeh in the land of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and mother come and make their living-place with you till it is clear to me what God will do for me.

I odande otide David u Mispu Moavsku, i reèe caru Moavskom: dopusti da se otac moj i mati moja sklone kod vas dokle vidim šta æe Bog uèiniti sa mnom.

4 And he took them to the king of Moab and they went on living with him while David was in his safe place.

I izvede ih pred cara Moavskoga, i ostaše kod njega za sve vrijeme dokle David bješe u onom gradu.

5 And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not go on living in this place but go into the land of Judah. Then David went away and came to the woodland of Hereth.

Ali prorok Gad reèe Davidu: nemoj ostati u tom gradu, idi i vrati se u zemlju Judinu. I David otide i doðe u šumu Aret.

6 And news was given to Saul that David had been seen, and the men who were with him: now Saul was in Gibeah, seated under the tree in the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were in their places before him.

A Saul èu da se pojavio David i ljudi što bijahu s njim. Tada Saul sjeðaše u Gavaji pod šumom u Rami, s kopljem u ruci, a sve sluge njegove stajahu pred njim.

7 Then Saul said to his servants who were there about him, Give ear now, you Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give to every one of you fields and vine-gardens, will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands;

I reèe Saul slugama svojim koje stajahu pred njim: èujte sinovi Venijaminovi; hoæe li vama svjema sin Jesejev dati njive i vinograde? hoæe li sve vas uèiniti tisuænicima i stotinicima?

8 That all of you have made designs against me, and not one of you gave me word when my son made an agreement with the son of Jesse, and not one of you has pity for me or has made my eyes open to the fact that my servant has been moved by my son against me, as at this day?

Te ste se svi složili na me, i nema nikoga da mi javi da se moj sin složio sa sinom Jesejevijem, i nema nikoga meðu vama da mari za me i da mi javi da je sin moj podigao slugu mojega na me da mi zasjeda, kao što se danas vidi.

9 Then Doeg, the Edomite, who was by the side of the servants of Saul, in answer said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.

Tada odgovori Doik Idumejac, koji stajaše sa slugama Saulovijem, i reèe: vidio sam sina Jesejeva gdje doðe u Nov k Ahimelehu sinu Ahitovovu.

10 And he got directions from the Lord for him, and gave him food, and put in his hand the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

On pita za nj Gospoda, i dade mu brašnjenice: i maè Golijata Filistejina dade mu.

11 Then the king sent for Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and for all the men of his father's family who were priests in Nob: and they all came to the king.

Tada car posla da dovedu Ahimeleha sina Ahitovova sveštenika i sav dom oca njegova, sveštenike, koji bijahu u Novu. I doðoše svi k caru.

12 And Saul said, Give ear now, O son of Ahitub. And answering he said, Here I am, my lord.

Tada reèe Saul: èuj sada sine Ahitovov. A on odgovori: evo me, gospodaru.

13 And Saul said to him, Why have you made designs against me with the son of Jesse, giving him food and a sword and getting directions from the Lord for him, and helping him to take up arms against me, and to be on the watch to make a secret attack on me as he is doing now?

A Saul mu reèe: zašto ste se složili na me ti i sin Jesejev, te si mu dao hljeba i maè, i pitao si Boga za nj, da bi ustao na me da mi zasjeda, kao što se vidi danas?

14 Then Ahimelech answering said to the king, Who among all your servants is so true to you as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and is a captain of your armed men, and has a place of honour in your house?

A Ahimeleh odgovori caru i reèe: a ko je izmeðu svijeh sluga tvojih kao David, vjeran, i zet carev i poslušan tebi i poštovan u kuæi tvojoj?

15 Is this the first time I have got directions from God for him? Far be the thought! let the king make no such statement against his servant or my father's family, for your servant has no knowledge, great or small, of this thing.

Eda li sam sad prvi put pitao Gospoda za nj? Saèuvaj Bože! neka car ne bijedi takim èim sluge svojega niti koga u domu oca mojega; jer nije znao sluga tvoj od svega toga ništa.

16 And the king said, You will certainly be put to death, Ahimelech, you and all your father's family.

Ali car reèe: poginuæeš, Ahimeleše! i ti i sav dom oca tvojega.

17 Then the king said to the runners who were waiting near him, Put the priests of the Lord to death; because they are on David's side, and having knowledge of his flight, did not give me word of it. But the king's servants would not put out their hands to make an attack on the Lord's priests.

Tada car reèe slugama koje stajahu pred njim: okrenite se i pogubite sveštenike Gospodnje, jer je i njihova ruka s Davidom, i znajuæi da je pobjegao ne javiše mi. Ali sluge careve ne htješe podignuti ruke svoje da ulože na sveštenike Gospodnje.

18 Then the king said to Doeg, You are to put the priests to death. And Doeg the Edomite, turning on the priests and attacking them, put to death that day eighty-five men who took up the ephod.

Tada car reèe Doiku: okreni se ti, te uloži na sveštenike. I okrenuvši se Doik Idumejac uloži na sveštenike, i pobi ih onaj dan osamdeset i pet, koji nošahu opleæak laneni.

19 And Nob, the town of the priests, he put to the sword, all the men and women, children and babies at the breast, and oxen and asses and sheep.

I u Novu, gradu sveštenièkom, isijeèe oštrijem maèem i ljude i žene i djecu i koja sisahu, i volove, i magarce i sitnu stoku oštrijem maèem.

20 And Abiathar, one of the sons of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, got away and went in flight after David;

Ali uteèe jedan sin Ahimeleha sina Ahitovova, po imenu Avijatar, i pobježe k Davidu.

21 And gave him the news of how Saul had put to death the Lord's priests.

I Avijatar javi Davidu da je Saul pobio sveštenike Gospodnje.

22 And David said to Abiathar, I was certain that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would take the news to Saul: I am responsible for the lives of all your father's family.

A David reèe Avijataru: znao sam onoga dana kad je bio ondje Doik Idumejac da æe zacijelo kazati Saulu; ja sam kriv za sve duše doma oca tvojega.

23 Keep here with me and have no fear; for he who has designs on my life has designs on yours: but with me you will be safe.

Ostani kod mene, ne boj se; jer ko traži moju dušu, tražiæe i tvoju; kod mene æeš biti saèuvan.
