2 Samuel 20
1 Now by chance there was present a good-for-nothing person named Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite: and he, sounding the horn, said, We have no part in David, or any interest in the son of Jesse: let every man go to his tent, O Israel.
A ondje se desi nevaljao èovjek, po imenu Seva sin Vihrijev, od Venijamina. On zatrubi u trubu i reèe: mi nemamo dijela s Davidom, ni našljedstva sa sinom Jesejevijem; svak u svoj šator, o Izrailju!
2 So all the men of Israel, turning away from David, went after Sheba, the son of Bichri: but the men of Judah were true to their king, going with him from Jordan as far as Jerusalem.
Tako svi Izrailjci otstupiše od Davida i otidoše za Sevom sinom Vihrijevim; ljudi pak od Jude držaše se cara svojega i otpratiše ga od Jordana do Jerusalima.
3 And David came to his house at Jerusalem: and the king took the ten women to whom he had given the care of the house, and had them shut up, and gave them the necessaries of life, but did not go near them. So they were shut up till the day of their death, living as widows.
A kad car David doðe u kuæu svoju u Jerusalim, uze car deset žena inoèa, koje bješe ostavio da mu èuvaju kuæu, i metnu ih u zatvor, gdje ih hranjaše ali ne lijegaše s njima, nego ostaše zatvorene do smrti svoje i življahu kao udovice.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, Get all the men of Judah together, and in three days be here yourself.
Potom reèe car Amasi: sazovi mi ljude od Jude do tri dana, i naði se i ti ovdje.
5 So Amasa went to get all the men of Judah together, but he took longer than the time David had given him.
I otide Amasa da sazove narod Judin; ali se zabavi preko roka koji mu bješe odreðen.
6 And David said to Abishai, Sheba, the son of Bichri, will do us more damage than Absalom did; so take some of your lord's servants and go after him, before he makes himself safe in the walled towns, and gets away before our eyes.
A David reèe Avisaju: sad æe nam Seva sin Vihrijev èiniti gore nego Avesalom. Nego uzmi sluge gospodara svojega, i goni ga da ne naðe za se koji tvrd grad i ne umakne nam iz oèiju.
7 So there went after Abishai, Joab and the Cherethites and the Pelethites and all the fighting-men; they went out of Jerusalem to overtake Sheba, the son of Bichri.
Tako izidoše za njim ljudi Joavovi, i Hereteji i Feleteji i svi junaci, izidoše iz Jerusalima da gone Sevu sina Vihrijeva.
8 When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came face to face with them. Now Joab had on his war-dress, and round him a band from which his sword was hanging in its cover; and while he was walking, it came out, falling to the earth.
I kad bijahu kod velikoga kamena u Gavaonu, srete ih Amasa. A Joav bijaše opasan preko haljine koju imaše na sebi, i ozgo bijaše pripasao maè uz bedricu u koricama. I kad poðe, maè mu ispade.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, Is it well, my brother? And with his right hand he took him by the hair of his chin to give him a kiss.
Tada reèe Joav Amasi: jesi li zdravo, brate? I dohvati se Joav desnom rukom svojom brade Amasi da ga cjeluje.
10 But Amasa did not see danger from the sword which was now in Joab's left hand, and Joab put it through his stomach so that his inside came out on to the earth, and he did not give him another blow. So Joab and his brother Abishai went on after Sheba, the son of Bichri.
A Amasa ne uzimaše na um maèa, koji bijaše Joavu u ruci; a on ga udari njim pod peto rebro, i prosu mu crijeva na zemlju, te od jednoga udarca umrije. Potom Joav i Avisaj brat njegov otidoše u potjeru za Sevom sinom Vihrijevim.
11 And one of Joab's young men, taking his place at Amasa's side, said, Whoever is for Joab and for David, let him go after Joab!
A jedan od momaka Joavovijeh stade kod njega i reèe: ko ljubi Joava i ko je Davidov, za Joavom!
12 And Amasa was stretched out in a pool of blood in the middle of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people were stopping, he took Amasa out of the highway and put him in a field, with a cloth over him, when he saw that everyone who went by came to a stop.
A Amasa se valjaše u svojoj krvi nasred puta. I videæi onaj èovjek gdje se ustavlja sav narod odvuèe Amasu s puta u polje i baci haljinu na nj, kad vidje gdje se ustavlja svaki ko naiðe na nj.
13 When he had been taken off the road, all the people went on after Joab in search of Sheba, the son of Bichri.
I kad bi uklonjen s puta proðoše svi za Joavom da tjeraju Sevu sina Vihrijeva.
14 And Sheba went through all the tribes of Israel, to Abel of Beth-maacah; and all the Bichrites came together and went in after him.
I on proðe kroz sva plemena Izrailjeva do Avela i do Vetmahe sa svijem Viranima, koji se okupiše te iðahu za njim.
15 And Joab and his men got him shut up in Abel of Beth-maacah, and put up an earthwork against the town: and all Joab's men did their best to get the wall broken down.
I došavši opkoliše ga u Avel-Vet-Masi, i iskopaše opkop oko grada tako da stajahu pred zidom; i sav narod što bješe s Joavom navaljivaše da obori zid.
16 Then a wise woman got up on the wall, and crying out from the town, said, Give ear, give ear; say now to Joab, Come near, so that I may have talk with you.
Tada viknu jedna mudra žena iz grada: èujte, èujte! Kažite Joavu: pristupi ovamo da govorim s tobom.
17 And he came near, and the woman said, Are you Joab? And he said in answer, I am. Then she said, Give ear to your servant's words. And he said, I am giving ear.
A kad on pristupi k njoj, reèe žena: jesi li ti Joav? A on reèe: jesam. A ona reèe: poslušaj rijeèi sluškinje svoje. A on reèe: da èujem.
18 Then she said, In the old days, there was a saying, Let them put the question in Abel and in Dan, saying, Has what was ordered by men of good faith in Israel ever come to an end?
A ona reèe govoreæi: od starine se govori: valja pitati u Avelu. I tako se izvršivaše.
19 Your purpose is the destruction of a mother-town in Israel: why would you put an end to the heritage of the Lord?
Ja sam jedan od mirnijeh i vjernijeh gradova u Izrailju, a ti hoæeš da zatreš grad, i to majku u Izrailju. Zašto hoæeš da proždreš našljedstvo Gospodnje?
20 And Joab, answering her, said, Far, far be it from me to be a cause of death or destruction;
A Joav odgovori i reèe: saèuvaj Bože! saèuvaj Bože! neæu da proždrem ni da raskopam.
21 Not so: but a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, Sheba, son of Bichri, by name, has taken up arms against the king, against David: give up this man only, and I will go away from the town. And the woman said to Joab, His head will be dropped over the wall to you.
Nije tako; nego jedan iz gore Jefremove, po imenu Seva sin Vihrijev, podigao je ruku svoju na cara Davida; dajte samo njega, pa æu otiæi od grada. A žena reèe Joavu: evo, glava njegova baciæe ti se preko zida.
22 Then the woman in her wisdom had talk with all the town. And they had Sheba's head cut off and sent out to Joab. And he had the horn sounded, and sent them all away from the town, every man to his tent. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.
I žena otide k svemu narodu s mudrošæu svojom; i otsjekoše glavu Sevi sinu Vihrijevu, i baciše je Joavu. A on zatrubi u trubu, te se razidoše od grada svak u svoj šator. A Joav se vrati u Jerusalim k caru.
23 Now Joab was over all the army; and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was at the head of the Cherethites and the Pelethites;
A bijaše Joav nad svom vojskom Izrailjevom; a Venaja sin Jodajev bijaše nad Heretejima i Feletejima;
24 And Adoram was overseer of the forced work; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the recorder;
A Adoram bješe nad dancima; a Josafat sin Ahiludov bješe pametar;
25 And Sheva was the scribe, and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;
Seja pisar; a Sadok i Avijatar sveštenici.
26 And in addition, Ira the Jairite was a priest to David.
I Ira Jairanin bješe knez Davidu.
