1 Kings 1
1 King David had grown old and couldn't keep warm in bed however many blankets they used to cover him.
Kralj David bijaše ostario i odmakao u godinama; premda su ga pokrivali mnogim pokrivačima, nije se mogao ugrijati.
2 So his officials suggested, “Let a search be made on behalf of Your Majesty for a young virgin to serve you and look after you. She can lie next to you and keep you warm.”
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 So they searched the whole country of Israel for a beautiful young woman and found Abishag from the town of Shunem and took her to the king.
Potražiše, dakle, lijepu djevojku po svoj zemlji izraelskoj; i nađoše Abišagu Šunamku te je dovedoše kralju.
4 She was very beautiful, and she looked after the king, attending to his needs, but he did not have sex with her.
Djevojka je bila izvanredno lijepa; njegovala je kralja i služila mu, ali je on ne upozna.
5 Adonijah, son of Haggith, was busy promoting himself, saying “I'm going to be king!” He arranged chariots and horsemen for himself, and fifty men to run ahead of 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 (Never in his life had his father corrected him. He'd never asked him, “Why did you do that?” He was also very good-looking, and had been born 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 Adonijah discussed his plan with Joab, son of Zeruiah, and with Abiathar the priest, who agreed to support him.
On se dogovarao s Joabom, sinom Sarvijinim, i sa svećenikom Ebjatarom, pa se obojica priključiše Adoniji.
8 But Zadok the priest, Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and David's bodyguard were not on Adonijah's side.
Ali svećenik Sadok i Jojadin sin Benaja, prorok Natan, Šimej i Rei i junaci Davidovi ne pristadoše uz Adoniju.
9 Adonijah invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and the king's officials of Judah, to come to the stone of Zoheleth, which is near En-rogel, where he sacrificed sheep, cattle and fattened calves.
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 didn't invite Nathan the prophet, Benaiah, David's bodyguard, or his brother Solomon.
ali ne pozva proroka Natana, ni Benaje, ni ostalih junaka, a ni svoga brata Salomona.
11 Nathan went to Bathsheba, Solomon's mother, and asked her, “Haven't you heard that Adonijah, son of Haggith, has become king, and His Majesty King David doesn't even know?
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 Let me give you some advice so you can save your life, and that of your son Solomon.
Dođi da te savjetujem kako bi mogla spasiti život svoj i svoga sina Salomona.
13 Go immediately to King David and ask him, ‘Didn't Your Majesty swear to me, your servant, saying, Your son Solomon will definitely be king after me and will sit on my throne? So why is Adonijah saying he's king?’
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 Then I'll come in while you're still there talking with the king and I'll confirm what you're saying.”
I dok ti budeš ondje i razgovorala se s kraljem, doći ću ja za tobom i potvrditi tvoje riječi.”
15 So Bathsheba went to see the king in his bedroom. He was very old and Abishag was looking after him.
Bat-Šeba ode kralju u odaje - a on je bio vrlo star i Abišaga Šunamka služila mu.
16 Bathsheba bowed low in respect. He asked her, “What is it that you want?”
Pokloni mu se Bat-Šeba i pade ničice pred kraljem, a kralj upita: “Što želiš?”
17 She replied, “Your Majesty, you swore to me, your servant, by the Lord your God, ‘Your son Solomon will definitely be king after me and will sit on 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 But now Adonijah has become king and Your Majesty doesn't even know.
A sada je, evo, Adonija postao kraljem, a ti, kralju, gospodaru moj, ništa o tome i ne znaš!
19 He has sacrificed plenty of cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and he has invited all the king's sons, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the army commander. But he didn't invite your servant Solomon.
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 Now, Your Majesty, everyone in Israel is watching to see who you're going to say will be the next king.
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 If you don't do anything, as soon as Your Majesty dies, I and my son Solomon will be considered traitors…”
Inače, čim počine kralj, gospodar moj, kraj svojih otaca, ja i moj sin Salomon bit ćemo krivci.”
22 Right then, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet arrived.
Dok je ona još govorila s kraljem, dođe prorok Natan.
23 The king was told, “Nathan the prophet is here.” Nathan went in to see the king. He bowed down with his face to the ground.
Javiše kralju: “Ovdje je prorok Natan.” On uđe kralju i pade ničice pred njim.
24 Nathan asked the king, “Your Majesty, you must have announced, ‘Adonijah will be king after me and will sit on 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 has gone and sacrificed many cattle, fattened calves, and sheep, and he has invited all the king's sons, the army commanders, and Abiathar the priest. Right now they are eating and drinking with him, shouting, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’
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 didn't invite me, your servant, or Zadok the priest, or Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, or your son Solomon.
Ali mene, tvoga slugu, svećenika Sadoka, a ni Benaju, sina Jojadina, ni tvoga slugu Salomona nije pozvao.
27 If Your Majesty did this, you certainly didn't inform your officials as to who is meant to sit on your throne as the next king.”
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 King David replied, “Call Bathsheba for me.” Bathsheba came in and stood before the king.
Tada progovori David i reče: “Pozovite mi Bat-Šebu!” Ona dođe kralju i stupi preda nj.
29 The king swore a vow, saying, “As the Lord lives, who has saved me from all kinds of trouble, just as I swore to you previously by the Lord the God of Israel,
Kralj se tada zakle: “Tako mi Jahve živoga koji me izbavio iz svih nevolja!
30 telling you Solomon your son will be the next king and he will sit on my throne instead of me—I swear I will do this today.”
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 Bathsheba bowed with her face to the ground, honoring the king and said, “May Your Majesty King 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 Then King David said, “Call for me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada.” When they arrived,
A kralj David reče: “Pozovite mi svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Benaju, sina Jojadina.” I dođoše oni pred kralja,
33 the king told them, “Take the king's officials with you, and have them put Solomon on my own mule and lead him down to the Gihon Spring.
a on im reče: “Uzmite sluge svoga gospodara sa sobom, posadite moga sina Salomona na moju mazgu i odvedite ga do Gihona.
34 There have Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him king of Israel. Blow the trumpet and shout out, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
Ondje neka ga svećenik Sadok i prorok Natan pomažu za kralja nad Izraelom. Zatrubite tada i obznanite: 'Živio kralj Salomon!'
35 Then follow him back up, and have him come and sit on my throne. He is to be king instead of me. I am placing him in charge as ruler of Israel and 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 “Amen!” replied Benaiah, son of Jehoiada. “May the Lord, the God of my lord the king, confirm this!
Benaja, sin Jojadin, reče kralju: “Amen - tako neka bude! To je i riječ Jahve, Gospodara kraljeva!
37 In the same way the Lord was with my lord the king may he be with Solomon, and may he make his reign even greater than the reign 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 Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, together with the Cherethites and Pelethites, went and placed Solomon on King David's mule, and led him down to the Gihon Spring.
Svećenik Sadok, prorok Natan, Jojadin sin Benaja, Kerećani i Pelećani siđoše i posadiše Salomona na kraljevu mazgu i odvedoše ga na Gihon.
39 Zadok the priest took the horn containing olive oil from the Tent and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people shouted, “Long live King Solomon!”
Svećenik Sadok donese iz Šatora rog s uljem i pomaza Salomona. Tada odjeknuše trube i sav narod povika: “Živio kralj Salomon!”
40 Everyone followed him, playing flutes and celebrating so happily that the sound shook the earth.
I sav narod pođe za njim gore i sviraše puk u svirale i klicaše tako da se sva zemlja tresla.
41 Adonijah and all his guests heard the noise as they were finishing eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he asked, “What's all this noise coming from the 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 speaking, Jonathan, son of Abiathar the priest, suddenly arrived. “Come on in,” said Adonijah. “A good man like you must be bringing 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 “Absolutely not!” Jonathan replied. “Our lord King David has made Solomon king!
Jonatan odgovori: “Jest, naš gospodar, kralj David, učinio je Salomona kraljem!
44 He sent Solomon to be anointed with Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites. They had him ride on the king's mule.
Kralj je poslao s njim svećenika Sadoka, proroka Natana i Jojadina sina Benaju, i Kerećane i Pelećane. Oni ga posadiše na kraljevu mazgu,
45 Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anointed him king at the Gihon Spring. Now they have returned, celebrating with shouts that echo round the city. That's the noise you're hearing.
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 On top of that, Solomon is sitting on the royal throne,
Još više: Salomon je već sjeo na kraljevsko prijestolje
47 and the royal officials have also gone to voice their approval to our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make Solomon's reputation even more famous than your own, and may he make his reign greater than your reign.’ The king on his bed bowed his head,
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 said, ‘Praise the Lord, the God of Israel! Today he has provided a successor to sit on my throne, and I have been privileged to 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 When all of the guests who were supporting Adonijah heard this they shook with fear. They got up and rushed out in different directions.
Svi uzvanici Adonijini, uplašeni, ustadoše od stola i raziđoše se svaki svojim putem.
50 Adonijah was terrified of Solomon, so he ran off. He went and grabbed hold of the horns of the altar.
Adonija pak, u strahu od Salomona, usta i ode te se uhvati za rogove žrtvenika.
51 Solomon was told, “Adonijah is terrified of Your Majesty. He has grabbed hold of the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear today that he won't kill me, his servant!’”
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 Solomon replied, “If he is an honorable man, not one hair of his will fall to the ground. But if he shows himself to be evil, he will 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 King Solomon had Adonijah brought down from the altar, and he came and bowed down before King Solomon, who told him, “Go home.”
Tada zapovjedi Salomon da ga odmaknu od žrtvenika; on dođe i pade ničice pred Salomonom, koji mu reče: “Pođi svome domu!”
