< 1 Samuel 14 >

1 And it happened that, on a certain day, Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the youth who bore his armor, “Come, and let us go over to the garrison of the Philistines, which is across from that place.” But he did not reveal this to his father.
Један дан рече Јонатан, син Саулов, момку свом који му ношаше оружје: Хајде да идемо к стражи филистејској која је на оној страни. А оцу свом не каза ништа.
2 Moreover, Saul was staying in the furthermost part of Gibeah, below the pomegranate tree that was at Migron. And the people with him were about six hundred men.
А Саул стајаше крај брда под шипком, који беше у Мигрону; и народа беше с њим око шест стотина људи.
3 And Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, the brother of Ichabod, the son of Phinehas, who had been born of Eli, the priest of the Lord at Shiloh, wore the ephod. But the people did not know where Jonathan had gone.
И Ахија син Ахитова брата Ихавода сина Финеса сина Илија свештеника Господњег у Силому ношаше оплећак. И народ не знаше да је отишао Јонатан.
4 Now there were, between the ascents along which Jonathan strove to cross to the garrison of the Philistines, rocks projecting from both sides, and, in the manner of teeth, boulders breaking out from one side and the other. The name of one was Shining, and the name of the other was Thorny.
А у кланцу којим хтеде Јонатан отићи к стражи филистејској, беху две стрмене стене, једна с једне стране а друга с друге, и једна се зваше Восес а друга Сене.
5 One boulder projected toward the north, opposite Michmash, and the other toward the south, opposite Gibeah.
И једна од њих стајаше са севера према Михмасу, а друга с југа према Гаваји.
6 Then Jonathan said to the youth who bore his armor: “Come, let us go across to the garrison of these uncircumcised. And perhaps the Lord may act on our behalf. For it is not difficult for the Lord to save, either by many, or by few.”
И Јонатан рече момку који му ношаше оружје: Хајде да отидемо к стражи тих необрезаних; може бити да ће нам учинити шта Господ, јер Господу не смета избавити с множином или с малином.
7 And his armor bearer said to him: “Do all that is pleasing to your soul. Go wherever you wish, and I will be with you, wherever you will choose.”
А онај што му ношаше оружје одговори му: Чини шта ти је год у срцу, иди, ево ја ћу ићи с тобом куда год хоћеш.
8 And Jonathan said: “Behold, we will cross over to these men. And when we will be seen by them,
А Јонатан му рече: Ево, отићи ћемо к тим људима, и показаћемо им се.
9 if they have spoken to us in this way, ‘Stay until we come to you,’ let us stand still in our place, and not ascend to them.
Ако нам кажу: Чекајте докле дођемо к вама, тада ћемо се уставити на свом месту, и нећемо ићи к њима.
10 But if they will say, ‘Ascend to us,’ let us ascend. For the Lord has delivered them into our hands. This will be the sign to us.”
Ако ли кажу: Ходите к нама, тада ћемо отићи; јер нам их Господ предаде у руке. То ће нам бити знак.
11 And so, both of them appeared before the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, “See, the Hebrews have come out from the holes in which they had been hiding.”
И показаше се обојица стражи филистејској; а Филистеји рекоше: Гле, излазе Јевреји из рупа у које су се сакрили.
12 And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan and to his armor bearer, and they said, “Ascend to us, and we will show you something.” And Jonathan said to his armor bearer: “Let us ascend. Follow me. For the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.”
И стражари рекоше Јонатану и момку који му ношаше оружје: Ходите к нама да вам кажемо нешто. И Јонатан рече оном што му ношаше оружје: Хајде за мном, јер их предаде Господ у руке Израиљу.
13 Then Jonathan ascended, crawling on his hands and feet, and his armor bearer after him. And then, some fell before Jonathan, others his armor bearer killed as he was following him.
Тако пузаше Јонатан рукама и ногама, а за њим момак што му ношаше оружје; и падаху пред Јонатаном, и убијаше их за њим онај што му ношаше оружје.
14 And the first slaughter was made when Jonathan and his armor bearer struck down about twenty of the men, in the midst of an area of land that a yoke of oxen would usually plow in a day.
И то би први бој, у коме поби Јонатан и момак што му ношаше оружје око двадесет људи, отприлике на по рала земље.
15 And a miracle occurred in the camp, out in the fields. And all of the people of their garrison, who had gone out in order to plunder, were stupefied. And the earth trembled. And it happened as a miracle from God.
И уђе страх у логор у пољу и у сав народ; и стража и они који беху изашли да плене препадоше се, и земља се усколеба, јер беше страх од Бога.
16 And the watchmen of Saul, who were at Gibeah of Benjamin, looked out, and behold, a multitude was thrown down and dispersed, this way and that.
А стража Саулова у Гаваји Венијаминовој опази где се мноштво узбунило и успрепадало.
17 And Saul said to the people who were with him, “Inquire and see who has gone out from us.” And when they had inquired, it was found that Jonathan and his armor bearer were not present.
Тада рече Саул народу који беше с њим: Прегледајте и видите ко је отишао од нас. И кад прегледаше, гле, не беше Јонатана и момка његовог који му ношаше оружје.
18 And Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of the God.” (For the ark of God was, in that day, with the sons of Israel in that place.)
И рече Саул Ахији: Донеси ковчег Божји; јер ковчег Божји беше тада код синова Израиљевих.
19 And while Saul spoke to the priest, there arose a great tumult in the camp of the Philistines. And it was increasing, little by little, and it was being heard more clearly. And Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
А док говораше Саул свештенику, забуна у логору филистејском биваше све већа, и Саул рече свештенику: Остави.
20 Then Saul, and all the people who were with him, cried out together, and they went to the place of the conflict. And behold, each one’s sword had been turned against his neighbor, and there was a very great slaughter.
И Саул и сав народ што беше с њим скупише се и дођоше до боја, и гле, повадили беху мачеве један на другог, и забуна беше врло велика.
21 Moreover, the Hebrews who had been with the Philistines yesterday and the day before, and who had ascended with them into the camp, turned back so that they might be with those of Israel who were with Saul and Jonathan.
А беше с Филистејима Јевреја као пре, који иђаху с њима на војску свуда; па и они присташе уз Израиљце, који беху са Саулом и Јонатаном.
22 Likewise, all the Israelites who had hidden themselves on mount Ephraim, hearing that the Philistines had fled, joined themselves with their own in the battle. And there were with Saul about ten thousand men.
И сви Израиљци који се беху сакрили у гори Јефремовој кад чуше да беже Филистеји, наклопише се и они за њима бијући их.
23 And the Lord saved Israel on that day. But the fight continued as far as Bethaven.
И избави Господ Израиља у онај дан; и бој отиде дори до Вет-Авена.
24 And the men of Israel were joined together on that day. And Saul made the people swear, saying, “Cursed be the man who will eat bread, until evening, until I am avenged of my enemies.” And the entire people did not consume bread.
И Израиљци се врло уморише онај дан; а Саул закле народ говорећи: Да је проклет који једе шта до вечера, да се осветим непријатељима својим. И не окуси народ ништа.
25 And all the common people went into a forest, in which there was honey on the surface of the field.
И сав народ оне земље дође у шуму, где беше много меда по земљи.
26 And so the people entered the forest, and there appeared flowing honey, but no one drew his hand near his mouth. For the people were afraid of the oath.
И кад дође народ у шуму, виде мед где тече; али нико не принесе руке к устима својим: јер се народ бојаше заклетве.
27 But Jonathan had not heard that his father had bound the people to an oath. And so he extended the top of the staff that he was holding in his hand, and he dipped it in a honeycomb. And he turned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were brightened.
Али Јонатан не чу кад отац његов закле народ, те пружи штап који му беше у руци, и замочи крај у саће, и примаче руку своју к устима својим, и засветлише му се очи.
28 And in response, one of the people said, “Your father has bound the people by an oath, saying: ‘Cursed be the man who will eat any bread this day.’” (For the people were faint.)
А један из народа проговори и рече: Отац је твој заклео народ рекавши: Да је проклет ко би јео шта данас; стога суста народ.
29 And Jonathan said: “My father has troubled the land. You have seen for yourselves that my eyes were brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
Тада рече Јонатан: Смео је земљу отац мој; видите како ми се засветлише очи, чим окусих мало меда.
30 How much more so, if the people had eaten from the plunder that they find with their enemies? Would not a greater slaughter have been accomplished among the Philistines?”
А да је још народ слободно јео данас од плена непријатеља својих, који нађе! Не би ли полом филистејски био још већи?
31 Therefore, on that day, they struck down the Philistines, from Michmash as far as Aijalon. But the people were exceedingly wearied.
И тако побише онај дан Филистеје од Михмаса до Ајалона, и народ се врло умори.
32 And turning to the spoils, they took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and they slew them on the ground. And the people ate with blood.
И наклопи се народ на плен, и нахваташе оваца и волова и телаца, и поклаше их на земљи, и стаде народ јести с крвљу.
33 Then they reported to Saul, saying that the people had sinned against the Lord, eating with blood. And he said: “You have transgressed. Roll a great stone to me, here and now.”
И јавише Саулу говорећи: Ево народ греши Господу једући с крвљу. А он рече: Неверу учинисте; доваљајте сада к мени велик камен.
34 And Saul said: “Disperse yourselves among the common people, and tell each one of them to bring to me his ox and his ram, and to slay them upon this stone, and to eat, so that you will not sin against the Lord, in eating with blood.” And so, each one, out of all the people, brought his ox, by his own hand, throughout the night. And they slew them there.
Затим рече Саул: Разиђите се међу народ и реците: Доведите сваки к мени вола свог и овцу своју; и овде закољите и једите, и нећете грешити Господу једући с крвљу. И донесе сав народ, сваки свог вола својом руком оне ноћи, и онде клаше.
35 Then Saul built an altar to the Lord. And so, it was then that he first began to build an altar to the Lord.
И начини Саул олтар Господу; то би први олтар који начини Господу.
36 And Saul said: “Let us fall upon the Philistines by night, and lay waste to them even until the morning light. And let us not leave behind a man among them.” And the people said, “Do all that seems good in your eyes.” And the priest said, “Let us draw near to God in this place.”
Потом рече Саул: Хајдемо за Филистејима ноћас, да их пленимо до јутра, и да их не оставимо ни једног. А они рекоше: Чини шта ти је год воља. Али свештеник рече: Да приступимо овде к Богу.
37 And Saul consulted the Lord: “Shall I pursue the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hands of Israel?” And he did not respond to him on that day.
И упита Саул Бога: Хоћу ли ићи за Филистејима? Хоћеш ли их дати у руке Израиљу? Али не одговори му онај дан.
38 And Saul said: “Bring here every single leader of the people. And we shall know and see by whom this sin was committed this day.
Зато рече Саул: Приступите овамо сви главари народни, и тражите и видите на коме је грех данас.
39 As the Lord lives, who is the Savior of Israel, even if it were done by my son Jonathan, without retraction he shall die.” In this, no one among all the people contradicted him.
Јер како је жив Господ који избавља Израиља, ако буде и на Јонатану сину мом, погинуће заиста. И не одговори му нико из свега народа.
40 And he said to all of Israel, “Separate yourselves on one side, and I, with my son Jonathan, will be on the other side.” And the people responded to Saul, “Do what seems good in your eyes.”
Потом рече свему Израиљу: Ви будите с једне стране, а ја и Јонатан, син мој, бићемо с друге стране. А народ рече Саулу: Чини шта ти је драго.
41 And Saul said to the Lord, the God of Israel: “O Lord, God of Israel, grant a sign: Why is it that you will not respond to your servant this day? If this iniquity is in me, or in my son Jonathan, grant an indication. Or if this iniquity is in your people, grant a sanctification.” And Jonathan and Saul were discovered, but the people were released.
Тада рече Саул Господу Богу Израиљевом: Покажи правога. И обличи се Јонатан и Саул, а народ изађе прав.
42 And Saul said, “Cast lots between myself and Jonathan, my son.” And Jonathan was caught.
И рече Саул: Баците жреб за ме и за Јонатана, сина мог. И обличи се Јонатан.
43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” And Jonathan revealed to him, and said: “Truly, I tasted a little honey with the top of the staff that was in my hand. And behold, I shall die.”
Тада рече Саул Јонатану: Кажи ми шта си учинио? И каза му Јонатан и рече: Само сам окусио мало меда накрај штапа који ми беше у руци; ево ме; хоћу ли погинути?
44 And Saul said, “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, for you shall surely die, Jonathan!”
А Саул рече: То нека ми учини Бог и то нека дода, погинућеш, Јонатане!
45 And the people said to Saul: “Why should Jonathan have to die, who has accomplished this great salvation in Israel? This is wrong. As the Lord lives, not one hair of his head should fall to the ground. For he has wrought with God this day.” Therefore, the people freed Jonathan, so that he would not die.
Али народ рече Саулу: Зар да погине Јонатан, који је учинио ово спасење велико у Израиљу? Боже сачувај! Тако жив био Господ, неће пасти на земљу ниједна длака с главе његове, јер је с помоћу Божјом учинио то данас. И тако избави народ Јонатана, те не погибе.
46 And Saul withdrew, and he did not pursue the Philistines. And the Philistines went away to their own places.
Тада се врати Саул од Филистеја, а Филистеји отидоше у своје место.
47 And Saul, his kingdom having been confirmed over Israel, was fighting against all his enemies on all sides: against Moab, and the sons of Ammon, and Edom, and the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines. And wherever he turned himself, he was successful.
И Саул царујући над Израиљем ратоваше на све непријатеље своје, на Моавце и на синове Амонове и на Едомце и на цареве совске и на Филистеје, и куда се год обраћаше, надвлађиваше.
48 And gathering together an army, he struck Amalek. And he rescued Israel from the hand of those who would lay waste to them.
Скупи такође војску и поби Амалика; и избави Израиља из руку оних који га плењаху.
49 Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchishua. And as for the names of his two daughters: the name of the firstborn daughter was Merab, and the name of the younger one was Michal.
А Саул имаше синове: Јонатана и Исуја и Мелхисуја; а двема кћерима његовим беху имена првеници Мерава, а млађој Михала.
50 And the name of the wife of Saul was Ahinoam, the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the first ruler of his military was Abner, the son of Ner, the first cousin of Saul.
А жени Сауловој беше име Ахиноама, кћи Ахимасова; а војводи његовом беше име Авенир син Нира стрица Сауловог.
51 For Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner was the father of Abner, and the son of Abiel.
Јер Кис отац Саулов и Нир отац Авениров беху синови Авилови.
52 Now there was a powerful war against the Philistines during all the days of Saul. And so, whomever Saul had seen to be a strong man, and fit for battle, he joined him to himself.
И беше велики рат с Филистејима свега века Сауловог; и кога год виђаше Саул храброг и јунака, узимаше га к себи.
