1 Kings 1
1 Now king David had become elderly, and he had many days in his lifetime. And though he was covered with clothes, he was not warmed.
Kralj David bijaše ostario i odmakao u godinama; premda su ga pokrivali mnogim pokrivačima, nije se mogao ugrijati.
2 Therefore, his servants said to him: “Let us seek, for our lord the king, a young virgin. And let her stand before the king, and warm him, and sleep in his bosom, and provide warmth for our lord the king.”
Tada mu rekoše njegove sluge: “Trebalo bi potražiti za gospodara mladu djevojku koja bi dvorila kralja i služila mu: kad bude spavala na njegovu krilu, to će ugrijati kralja gospodara.”
3 And so they sought a beautiful young woman in all the parts of Israel. And they found Abishag, a Shunammite, and they led her to the king.
Potražiše, dakle, lijepu djevojku po svoj zemlji izraelskoj; i nađoše Abišagu Šunamku te je dovedoše kralju.
4 Now the girl was exceedingly beautiful. And she slept with the king, and she ministered to him. Yet truly, the king did not know her.
Djevojka je bila izvanredno lijepa; njegovala je kralja i služila mu, ali je on ne upozna.
5 Then Adonijah, the son of Haggith, exalted himself, saying, “I shall reign!” And he appointed for himself chariots and horsemen, with fifty men who would run before him.
Uto se Adonija, sin Hagitin, pooholi i pomisli: “Ja ću biti kralj!” Zato nabavi sebi kola i konjanika i pedeset ljudi koji su išli pred njim.
6 Neither did his father chastise him at any time, saying, “Why have you done this?” Now he, too, was very beautiful, the second in birth, after Absalom.
Njegov ga otac za svoga života nikad nije ukorio niti ga kad upitao: “Zašto tako činiš?” Bio je, osim toga, stasit i lijep, a mati ga rodila poslije Abšaloma.
7 And he conferred with Joab, the son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar, the priest, who gave assistance to the side of Adonijah.
On se dogovarao s Joabom, sinom Sarvijinim, i sa svećenikom Ebjatarom, pa se obojica priključiše Adoniji.
8 Yet truly, Zadok, the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Nathan, the prophet, and Shimei and Rei, and the mature men of the army of David were not with Adonijah.
Ali svećenik Sadok i Jojadin sin Benaja, prorok Natan, Šimej i Rei i junaci Davidovi ne pristadoše uz Adoniju.
9 Then Adonijah, having immolated rams and calves and every kind of fat cattle beside the Stone of the Serpent, which was in the vicinity of the fountain Rogel, summoned all his brothers, the sons of the king, and all the men of Judah, the servants of the king.
Jednom nakla Adonija ovaca, volova i tovljene teladi za žrtvu kod Zoheledskog kamena, blizu izvora Rogela, te pozva svu svoju braću, sinove kraljeve, i sve Judejce u kraljevoj službi;
10 But he did not summon Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, and all the mature men, and Solomon, his brother.
ali ne pozva proroka Natana, ni Benaje, ni ostalih junaka, a ni svoga brata Salomona.
11 And so Nathan said to Bathsheba, the mother of Solomon: “Have you not heard that Adonijah, the son of Haggith, has begun to reign, and that our lord David is ignorant of this?
Tada reče Natan Bat-Šebi, majci Salomonovoj: “Zar nisi čula da je Adonija, sin Hagitin, postao kraljem, a da David, naš gospodar, o tome i ne zna?
12 Now then, come, accept my counsel, and save your life and the life of your son Solomon.
Dođi da te savjetujem kako bi mogla spasiti život svoj i svoga sina Salomona.
13 Go and enter to king David, and say to him: ‘Did you not, my lord the king, swear to me, your handmaid, saying: “Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he himself shall sit on my throne?” Then why does Adonijah reign?’
Hajde, otiđi kralju Davidu i reci mu: 'Zar se nisi ti, gospodaru moj kralju, zakleo svojoj službenici govoreći: Tvoj sin Salomon kraljevat će poslije mene, i on će sjediti na mome prijestolju! Kako sada Adonija posta kraljem?'
14 And while you are still speaking with the king there, I will enter after you, and I will complete your words.”
I dok ti budeš ondje i razgovorala se s kraljem, doći ću ja za tobom i potvrditi tvoje riječi.”
15 And so Bathsheba entered to the king in the bedroom. Now the king was very old, and Abishag, the Shunammite, was ministering to him.
Bat-Šeba ode kralju u odaje - a on je bio vrlo star i Abišaga Šunamka služila mu.
16 Bathsheba bowed herself, and she reverenced the king. And the king said to her, “What do you wish?”
Pokloni mu se Bat-Šeba i pade ničice pred kraljem, a kralj upita: “Što želiš?”
17 And responding, she said: “My lord, you swore to your handmaid, by the Lord your God: ‘your son Solomon will reign after me, and he himself shall sit upon my throne.’
Ona mu odgovori: “Gospodaru, ti si se zakleo službenici svojoj Jahvom, Bogom svojim: 'Tvoj sin Salomon kraljevat će poslije mene, on će sjesti na moje prijestolje.'
18 And now behold, Adonijah reigns, while you, my lord the king, are ignorant of it.
A sada je, evo, Adonija postao kraljem, a ti, kralju, gospodaru moj, ništa o tome i ne znaš!
19 He has slain oxen, and every kind of fattened cattle, and many rams. And he has summoned all the sons of the king, as well as Abiathar, the priest, and Joab, the leader of the military. But Solomon, your servant, he did not summon.
Naklao je on mnogo volova, tovljene teladi i ovaca za žrtvu i pozvao je sve sinove kraljeve, svećenika Ebjatara i vojskovođu Joaba, ali slugu tvoga Salomona nije pozvao.
20 Truly now, my lord the king, the eyes of all of Israel look with favor upon you, that you may indicate to them who ought to sit upon your throne, my lord the king, after you.
U tebe su sada, gospodaru moj i kralju, uprte oči svega Izraela da mu ti objaviš tko će te naslijediti na tvome prijestolju, kralju, gospodaru moj.
21 Otherwise, this will be: when my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, I and my son Solomon will be as sinners.”
Inače, čim počine kralj, gospodar moj, kraj svojih otaca, ja i moj sin Salomon bit ćemo krivci.”
22 And while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan, the prophet, arrived.
Dok je ona još govorila s kraljem, dođe prorok Natan.
23 And they announced to the king, saying, “Nathan, the prophet, is here.” And when he had entered in the sight of the king, and he had reverenced prone on the ground,
Javiše kralju: “Ovdje je prorok Natan.” On uđe kralju i pade ničice pred njim.
24 Nathan said: “My lord the king, did you say, ‘Let Adonijah reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?’
Natan reče: “Gospodaru moj i kralju, jesi li ti odredio: 'Adonija će kraljevati poslije mene i sjedit će na mome prijestolju?'
25 For today, he descended, and he immolated oxen, and fattened cattle, and many rams. And he summoned all the sons of the king, and the leaders of the army, along with Abiathar, the priest. And they are eating and drinking before him, and saying, ‘As king Adonijah lives.’
Jer evo danas je sišao i naklao volova, ugojene teladi i ovaca za žrtvu i pozvao je sve sinove kraljeve, vojskovođe i svećenika Ebjatara; eno ih gdje jedu i piju s njim i kliču: 'Živio kralj Adonija!'
26 But he did not summon me, your servant, and Zadok, the priest, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and Solomon, your lowly servant.
Ali mene, tvoga slugu, svećenika Sadoka, a ni Benaju, sina Jojadina, ni tvoga slugu Salomona nije pozvao.
27 Could this word have gone out from my lord the king, and could you not have revealed it to me, your servant, as to who would be seated upon the throne of my lord the king after him?”
Zar se to dogodilo s voljom gospodara moga kralja, a da nisi obavijestio svoga vjernog sluge tko će biti nasljednik na prijestolju gospodara moga kralja?”
28 And king David responded, saying, “Summon to me Bathsheba.” And when she had entered before the king, and she had stood before him,
Tada progovori David i reče: “Pozovite mi Bat-Šebu!” Ona dođe kralju i stupi preda nj.
29 the king swore and said: “As the Lord lives, who has rescued my soul from all distress,
Kralj se tada zakle: “Tako mi Jahve živoga koji me izbavio iz svih nevolja!
30 just as I swore to you by the Lord God of Israel, saying: ‘Your son Solomon shall reign after me, and he himself shall sit upon my throne in my place,’ so shall I do this day.”
Danas ću ti ispuniti kako sam ti se zakleo Jahvom, Bogom Izraelovim: tvoj će sin Salomon kraljevati poslije mene, on će sjediti na mome prijestolju!”
31 And Bathsheba, having lowered her face to the ground, reverenced the king, saying, “May my lord David live forever.”
Nato se nakloni Bat-Šeba licem do zemlje, pokloni se pred kraljem i reče: “Neka vječno živi gospodar moj kralj David!”
32 And king David said, “Summon to me Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada.” And when they had entered before the king,
A kralj David reče: “Pozovite mi svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Benaju, sina Jojadina.” I dođoše oni pred kralja,
33 he said to them: “Take with you the servants of your lord, and place my son Solomon upon my mule. And lead him to Gihon.
a on im reče: “Uzmite sluge svoga gospodara sa sobom, posadite moga sina Salomona na moju mazgu i odvedite ga do Gihona.
34 And let Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, anoint him in that place as the king over Israel. And you shall sound the trumpet, and you shall say, ‘As king Solomon lives.’
Ondje neka ga svećenik Sadok i prorok Natan pomažu za kralja nad Izraelom. Zatrubite tada i obznanite: 'Živio kralj Salomon!'
35 And you shall ascend after him, and he shall arrive and shall sit upon my throne. And he himself shall reign in my place. And I will command that he be the ruler over Israel and over Judah.”
Zatim se uspnite amo s njim i neka uđe i sjedne na moje prijestolje i neka kraljuje mjesto mene, jer moja je volja: on neka bude glava nad Izraelom i nad Judom.”
36 And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, responded to the king, saying: “Amen. So says the Lord, the God of my lord the king.
Benaja, sin Jojadin, reče kralju: “Amen - tako neka bude! To je i riječ Jahve, Gospodara kraljeva!
37 In the same way that the Lord has been with my lord the king, so may he be with Solomon. And may he make his throne more sublime than the throne of my lord, king David.”
Kao što je Jahve bio s mojim gospodarem kraljem, tako neka bude i sa Salomonom! Neka uzvisi prijestolje njegovo još više nego prijestolje kralja Davida, gospodara moga!”
38 Then Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, descended, with Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and Pelethites. And they placed Solomon on the mule of king David, and they led him to Gihon.
Svećenik Sadok, prorok Natan, Jojadin sin Benaja, Kerećani i Pelećani siđoše i posadiše Salomona na kraljevu mazgu i odvedoše ga na Gihon.
39 And Zadok, the priest, took the horn of oil from the tabernacle, and he anointed Solomon. And they sounded the trumpet. And all the people said, “As king Solomon lives.”
Svećenik Sadok donese iz Šatora rog s uljem i pomaza Salomona. Tada odjeknuše trube i sav narod povika: “Živio kralj Salomon!”
40 And the entire multitude ascended after him. And the people were playing on pipes, and rejoicing with great joy. And the earth resounded before the noise of them.
I sav narod pođe za njim gore i sviraše puk u svirale i klicaše tako da se sva zemlja tresla.
41 Then Adonijah, and all who had been summoned by him, heard it. And now the feast had ended. Then, too, Joab, hearing the voice of the trumpet, said, “What is the meaning of this clamor from the tumultuous city?”
Čuo to Adonija i svi njegovi uzvanici. Baš su bili pri kraju gozbe. I Joab je čuo trube pa upita: “Čemu ta buka u gradu?”
42 While he was still speaking, Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest, arrived. And Adonijah said to him, “Enter, for you are a valiant man, and you report good news.”
Dok je on još govorio, stiže Jonatan, sin svećenika Ebjatara, i Adonija mu reče: “Ti si valjan čovjek, zacijelo nosiš dobru vijest!”
43 And Jonathan answered Adonijah: “By no means. For our lord king David has appointed Solomon as king.
Jonatan odgovori: “Jest, naš gospodar, kralj David, učinio je Salomona kraljem!
44 And he has sent with him Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, and Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and Pelethites. And they have placed him on the mule of the king.
Kralj je poslao s njim svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Jojadina sina Benaju, i Kerećane i Pelećane. Oni ga posadiše na kraljevu mazgu,
45 And Zadok, the priest, and Nathan, the prophet, have anointed him king, at Gihon. And they are ascending from there, rejoicing, and so the city resounds. This is the noise that you have heard.
i svećenik Sadok i prorok Natan pomazaše ga na Gihonu za kralja. Zatim su sišli radosno kličući, i sav je grad uzavreo; to je buka koju ste čuli.
46 But also, Solomon sits upon the throne of the kingdom.
Još više: Salomon je već sjeo na kraljevsko prijestolje
47 And the servants of the king, entering, have blessed our lord king David, saying: ‘May God amplify the name of Solomon above your name, and may he magnify his throne above your throne.’ And the king reverenced from his bed.
i došle su sluge kraljeve čestitati našem gospodaru kralju Davidu govoreći: 'Neka Bog tvoj proslavi ime Salomonovo više od imena tvoga i prijestolje njegovo uzvisi više od tvoga.' Kralj se tada poklonio na svojoj postelji
48 And he said: ‘Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who today has bestowed someone to sit upon my throne, while my eyes may see it.’”
i ovako rekao: 'Neka je blagoslovljen Jahve, Bog Izraelov, koji mi dade danas da mogu vidjeti svojim očima jednoga od mojih kako sjedi na mome prijestolju.'”
49 Therefore, all those who had been summoned by Adonijah were terrified. And they all rose up, and each one went his own way.
Svi uzvanici Adonijini, uplašeni, ustadoše od stola i raziđoše se svaki svojim putem.
50 Then Adonijah, fearing Solomon, rose up and went away. And he took hold of the horn of the altar.
Adonija pak, u strahu od Salomona, usta i ode te se uhvati za rogove žrtvenika.
51 And they reported to Solomon, saying: “Behold, Adonijah, fearing king Solomon, has taken hold of the horn of the altar, saying: ‘May king Solomon swear to me this day that he will not put to death his servant with the sword.’”
Javiše Salomonu: “Gle, Adonija se uplašio kralja Salomona i eno se drži za rogove žrtvenika govoreći: 'Neka mi se danas kralj Salomon zakune da neće sluge svoga mačem pogubiti.'”
52 And Solomon said: “If he is a good man, not so much as one hair of his head shall fall to the ground. But if evil is found in him, he shall die.”
Salomon reče nato: “Ako se pokaže poštenim čovjekom, neće mu ni vlas s glave pasti na zemlju; a nađe li se u zlu, poginut će.”
53 Therefore, king Solomon sent and brought him from the altar. And entering, he reverenced king Solomon. And Solomon said to him, “Go to your own house.”
Tada zapovjedi Salomon da ga odmaknu od žrtvenika; on dođe i pade ničice pred Salomonom, koji mu reče: “Pođi svome domu!”
