2 Samuel 13
1 Now after this, it came about that Absalom, David's son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and David's son Amnon was in love with her.
A potom se dogodi ovo: Davidov sin Abšalom imao je lijepu sestru po imenu Tamaru i u nju se zaljubio Davidov sin Amnon.
2 And he was so deeply in love that he became ill because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin, and so it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
Amnon se toliko mučio da se gotovo razbolio radi svoje sestre Tamare: jer ona bijaše djevica, pa Amnon nije vidio mogućnosti da joj učini bilo što.
3 But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother: and Jonadab was a very wise man.
Ali imaše Amnon prijatelja po imenu Jonadaba, sina Davidova brata Šimeja; a Jonadab bijaše vrlo domišljat.
4 And he said to him, O son of the king, why are you getting thinner day by day? will you not say what your trouble is? And Amnon said to him, I am in love with Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.
I upita on Amnona: “Odakle to, kraljev sine, da si svako jutro mlitav? Ne bi li mi kazao?” A Amnon mu odgovori: “Zaljubljen sam u Tamaru, sestru svoga brata Abšaloma.”
5 Then Jonadab said to him, Go to your bed, and let it seem that you are ill: and when your father comes to see you, say to him, Let my sister Tamar come and give me bread, and get the food ready before my eyes, so that I may see it and take it from her hand.
A Jonadab mu reče: “Lezi u postelju i pričini se bolestan, pa kad dođe tvoj otac da te pohodi, ti mu reci: 'Dopusti da dođe moja sestra Tamara da mi dade jesti; ako ona pred mojim očima zgotovi jelo da to vidim, onda ću iz njezine ruke jesti.'”
6 So Amnon went to bed and made himself seem ill: and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, Please let my sister Tamar come and make me one or two cakes before my eyes, so that I may take food from her hand.
Amnon, dakle, leže i pričini se bolestan. Kad je došao kralj da ga pohodi, reče Amnon kralju: “Dopusti da dođe moja sestra Tamara da pred mojim očima zgotovi koji kolač i ja ću se okrijepiti iz njezine ruke.”
7 Then David sent to the house for Tamar and said, Go now to your brother Amnon's house and get a meal for him.
Tada David poruči Tamari u palaču: “Idi u kuću svoga brata Amnona i priredi mu jelo!”
8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was in bed. And she took paste and made cakes before his eyes, cooking them over the fire.
Tamara ode u kuću svoga brata Amnona. A on ležaše. Uze ona brašna, umijesi ga, načini kolače pred njegovim očima te ih ispeče.
9 And she took the cooking-pot, and put the cakes before him, but he would not take them. And Amnon said, Let everyone go away from me. So they all went out.
Potom uze tavu i istrese je preda nj, ali Amnon ne htjede jesti nego reče: “Otpremite sve odavde!” I svi iziđoše od njega.
10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, Take the food and come into my bedroom, so that I may take it from your hand. So Tamar took the cakes she had made and went with them into her brother Amnon's bedroom.
Tada Amnon reče Tamari: “Donesi mi jelo u spavaonicu da se okrijepim iz tvoje ruke!” I Tamara uze kolače koje bijaše zgotovila i donese ih svome bratu Amnonu u spavaonicu.
11 And when she took them to give them to him, he put his arms round her and said, Come to bed, my sister.
A kad mu je pružila da jede, on je uhvati rukom i reče joj: “Dođi, sestro moja, lezi sa mnom!”
12 And answering him, she said, O my brother, do not put shame on me; it is not right for such a thing to be done in Israel: do not this evil thing.
A ona mu reče: “Nemoj, brate moj! Ne sramoti me jer se tako ne radi u Izraelu. Ne čini takve sramote!
13 What will become of me in my shame? and as for you, you will be looked down on with disgust by all Israel. Now then, go and make your request to the king, for he will not keep me from you.
Kuda bih ja sa svojom sramotom? A i ti bi bio kao bestidnik u Izraelu! Nego govori s kraljem: on me neće uskratiti tebi!”
14 But he would not give attention to what she said: but being stronger than she, he took her by force, and had connection with her.
Ali je on ne htjede poslušati, nego je svlada i leže s njom.
15 Then Amnon was full of hate for her, hating her with a hate greater than his earlier love for her. And he said to her, Get up and be gone.
Nato je odmah zamrzi silnom mržnjom te je mržnja kojom ju je zamrzio bila veća od ljubavi kojom ju je prije ljubio. I reče joj Amnon: “Ustani! Odlazi!”
16 And she said to him, Not so, my brother, for this great wrong in sending me away is worse than what you did to me before. But he gave no attention to her.
A ona mu odvrati: “Ne, brate moj! Ako me sad otjeraš, bit će to veće zlo od onoga koje si mi učinio!” Ali je on ne htjede slušati,
17 Then he gave a cry to the servant who was waiting on him and said, Put this woman out, and let the door be locked after her.
nego dozva momka koji ga je služio i zapovjedi mu: “Otjeraj ovu od mene, izbaci je i zaključaj vrata za njom!”
18 Now she had on a long robe, such as in past times the king's virgin daughters were dressed in. Then the servant put her out, locking the door after her.
(A ona je imala na sebi haljinu s dugim rukavima, jer su se nekoć u takve haljine oblačile kraljeve kćeri dok su bile djevojke.) Sluga je izvede van i zaključa vrata za njom.
19 And Tamar, in her grief, put dust on her head; and she put her hand on her head and went away crying loudly.
Tada Tamara uze prašine i posu se njom po glavi, razdrije haljinu s dugim rukavima koju je imala na sebi, stavi ruku na glavu i ode vičući glasno dok je išla.
20 And her brother Absalom said to her, Has your brother Amnon been with you? but now, let there be an end to your crying, my sister: he is your brother, do not take this thing to heart. So Tamar went on living uncomforted in her brother's house.
A njezin je brat Abšalom upita: “Je li možda tvoj brat Amnon bio s tobom? Ali sada, sestro moja, šuti: brat ti je! Ne uzimaj to k srcu!” Tako je Tamara ostala osamljena u kući svoga brata Abšaloma.
21 But when King David had news of all these things he was very angry; but he did not make trouble for Amnon his son, for he was dear to David, being his oldest son.
Kad je kralj David čuo sve što se dogodilo, vrlo se razgnjevi, ali ne htjede žalostiti svoga sina Amnona, koga je ljubio jer mu bijaše prvorođenac.
22 But Absalom said nothing to his brother Amnon, good or bad: for he was full of hate for him, because he had taken his sister Tamar by force.
A Abšalom ne reče Amnonu ni riječi, ni zle ni dobre, jer je Abšalom zamrzio Amnona što mu osramoti sestru Tamaru.
23 Now after two full years, Absalom had men cutting the wool of his sheep in Baal-hazor, which is near Ephraim: and he sent for all the king's sons to come to his feast.
A poslije dvije godine imao je Abšalom striženje ovaca u Baal Hasoru kod Efrajima; i Abšalom pozva svu kraljevu obitelj.
24 And Absalom came to the king and said, See now, your servant is cutting the wool of his sheep; will the king and his servants be pleased to come?
Abšalom dođe kralju i reče mu: “Evo, tvoj sluga ima striženje ovaca, pa neka se kralj i njegovi dvorani udostoje doći svome sluzi.”
25 And the king said to Absalom, No, my son, let us not all go, or the number will be over-great for you. And he made his request again, but he would not go, but he gave him his blessing.
Ali kralj odgovori Abšalomu: “Ne, sine, nećemo doći svi, da ti ne budemo na teret.” Abšalom ustraja, ali kralj ne htjede ići, nego ga blagoslovi i otpusti.
26 Then Absalom said, If you will not go, then let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Is there any reason for him to go with you?
Ali Abšalom nastavi: “Ako ti nećeš, dopusti da bar moj brat Amnon pođe s nama.” A kralj ga upita: “Zašto da ide s tobom?”
27 But Absalom went on requesting him till he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom made a great feast like a feast for a king.
Ali je Abšalom i dalje navaljivao te David naposljetku pusti s njim Amnona i sve kraljeve sinove. Abšalom priredi kraljevsku gozbu
28 Now Absalom had given orders to his servants, saying, Now take note when Amnon's heart is glad with wine; and when I say to you, Make an attack on Amnon, then put him to death without fear: have I not given you orders? be strong and without fear.
i zapovjedi svojim slugama ovako: “Pazite! Kad se Amnonu razveseli srce od vina i ja vam viknem: 'Ubijte Amnona!' tada ga pogubite! Ne bojte se, jer vam tako zapovijedam! Ohrabrite se i pokažite se junaci!”
29 So Absalom's servants did to Amnon as Absalom had given them orders. Then all the king's sons got up, and every man got on his beast and went in flight.
I Abšalomove sluge učiniše s Amnonom kako im zapovjedi Abšalom. Tada skočiše svi kraljevi sinovi, pojahaše svaki svoju mazgu i pobjegoše.
30 Now while they were on their way, news was given to David that Absalom had put to death all the sons of the king and that not one of them was still living.
Dok su oni još bili na putu, dođe ovakva vijest Davidu: “Abšalom je pobio sve kraljeve sinove, nije ostao od njih ni jedan jedini.”
31 Then the king got up in great grief, stretching himself out on the earth: and all his servants were by his side, with their clothing parted.
Kralj ustade, razdrije svoje haljine i baci se na zemlju; i svi njegovi dvorani koji stajahu oko njega razdriješe svoje haljine.
32 And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, Let not my lord have the idea that all the sons of the king have been put to death; for only Amnon is dead: this has been purposed by Absalom from the day when he took his sister Tamar by force.
Ali Jonadab, sin Davidova brata Šimeja, progovori ovako: “Neka ne govori moj gospodar da su pobili sve mladiće, kraljeve sinove, jer je poginuo samo Amnon: na Abšalomovu licu mogla se predviđati nesreća od onoga dana kad je Amnon osramotio njegovu sestru Tamaru.
33 So now, let not my lord the king take this thing to heart, with the idea that all the king's sons are dead: for only Amnon is dead.
Zato neka sada moj gospodar i kralj ne misli u srcu da su svi kraljevi sinovi poginuli. Poginuo je samo Amnon,
34 But Absalom went in flight. And the young man who kept the watch, lifting up his eyes, saw that a great band of people was coming down the slope by the way of the Horons; and the watchman came and gave word to the king, saying, I saw men coming down by the way of the Horons, from the hillside.
a Abšalom je pobjegao.” A momak koji bijaše na straži podiže oči i ugleda mnoštvo naroda gdje silazi cestom od Horonajima. Stražar dođe i javi kralju: “Vidio sam ljude gdje silaze cestom od Horonajima po gorskom obronku.”
35 And Jonadab said to the king, See, the king's sons are coming; as your servant said, so it is.
Tada Jonadab reče kralju: “Evo stigoše kraljevi sinovi! Dogodilo se kako je rekao tvoj sluga.”
36 And while he was talking, the king's sons came, with weeping and loud cries: and the king and all his servants were weeping bitterly.
Tek što je to izrekao, a to kraljevi sinovi uđoše i zaplakaše u sav glas; a i kralj i svi njegovi dvorani plakahu.
37 So Absalom went in flight and came to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur, where he was for three years.
Abšalom pak bijaše pobjegao i otišao k Talmaju, sinu Amihudovu, gešurskom kralju. A David tugovaše za svojim sinom bez prestanka.
38 And the king was sorrowing for his son all the time.
A pošto je Abšalom pobjegao i otišao u Gešur, ostao je ondje tri godine.
39 And the heart of David was wasted with desire for Absalom: for he was comforted for the death of Amnon.
Kralj David prestao se srditi na Abšaloma jer se utješio zbog smrti Amnonove.
