1 Samuel 20
1 David ran away from [the] Naioth [section] of Ramah [city]. He went to Jonathan and asked him, “What have I done [to displease your father]? What did I do that was wrong? Why is he trying to kill me?”
А Давид побеже из Најота у Рами, и дође и рече Јонатану: Шта сам учинио? Каква је кривица моја? И шта сам згрешио оцу твом, те тражи душу моју?
2 Jonathan replied, “My father is surely not trying to kill you! He always tells me before he does anything that he is planning. He tells me about important things and unimportant things that he plans to do. (Why would he refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill me]?/I am sure that he would not refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill you].) [RHQ] So what you are saying cannot be true.”
А он му рече: Сачувај Боже! Нећеш ти погинути. Ево отац мој не чини ништа, ни велико ни мало, а да мени не каже; а како би то тајио од мене отац мој? Неће то бити.
3 Then David solemnly declared this to Jonathan: “Your father knows very well that you and I are very good friends, so he says to himself, ‘I will not tell Jonathan [what I am going to do]. If I tell Jonathan, he will be upset/distressed, [and then he will tell David].’ But just as certain as Yahweh lives and you live, I am only one step away from being killed.”
А Давид заклињући се опет рече: Отац твој зна добро да сам нашао љубав у тебе, па вели: Не треба да дозна за ово Јонатан, да се не ожалости. Али тако жив био Господ и тако жива била душа твоја, само је један корак између мене и смрти.
4 Jonathan said to David, “I will do whatever you tell me to do.”
А Јонатан рече Давиду: Шта жели душа твоја? Ја ћу ти учинити.
5 David replied, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. I always eat with the king at that festival. But tomorrow I will hide in the field, and I will stay there for one night. I will stay there until the evening of the day after tomorrow.
И Давид рече Јонатану: Ево сутра је младина, кад треба с царем да једем, пусти ме дакле да се сакријем у пољу до треће вечери.
6 If your father asks why I am not there at the festival, say to him, ‘David requested me to allow him to go to his home in Bethlehem, where his family will offer the sacrifice that they offer [during this festival] every year.’
Ако запита за ме отац твој, ти реци: Врло ми се молио Давид да отрчи у Витлејем град свој, јер је онде годишња жртва свега рода његовог.
7 If your father says ‘That is okay’, then I know I will be safe. But if he becomes extremely angry, you will know that he is determined to harm me.
Ако каже: Добро, биће миран слуга твој; ако ли се разгневи, знај да је зло наумио.
8 Please be kind to me. Yahweh heard you when you made a solemn agreement with me [that you and I will always be loyal friends]. If I deserve to be punished [MTY], kill me yourself. I do not want [RHQ] you to allow your father to punish [IDM] me.”
Учини, дакле, милост слузи свом, кад си веру Господњу ухватио са слугом својим; ако је каква кривица на мени, убиј ме сам, јер зашто би ме водио к оцу свом?
9 Jonathan replied, “I will never do that! But if I find out that my father is determined to harm/kill you, I will certainly warn you.” [RHQ]
А Јонатан му рече: Боже сачувај; јер да дознам да је отац мој наумио зло да те задеси, зар ти не бих јавио?
10 David asked him, “How will I find out if your father answers you harshly?”
А Давид рече Јонатану: Ко ће ми јавити ако ти отац одговори шта је зло?
11 Jonathan replied, “Come with me. We will go out into the field.” So they went together out into the field.
А Јонатан рече Давиду: Ходи да изађемо у поље. И изиђоше обојица у поље.
12 There Jonathan said to David, “I promise this while Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], is listening: At this time the day after tomorrow, I will find out what my father [is thinking about you]. If he is saying good things about you, I will certainly send a message to you to tell that to you [RHQ].
И Јонатан рече Давиду: Господе Боже Израиљев! Кад искушам оца свог сутра у ово доба или прекосутра, и буде добро по Давида, ако не пошаљем к теби и не јавим ти,
13 But if he is planning to hurt/kill you, I will enable you to know [IDM] that, and enable you to go away safely. I desire that Yahweh will punish me severely if I do not do that [for you]. I desire/hope that Yahweh will be with you [and help you] like he has helped my father.
Нека Господ учини тако Јонатану и тако нека дода. Ако ли отац мој буде наумио да ти учини зло, ја ћу ти јавити, и оправићу те, и отићи ћеш с миром; и Господ нека буде с тобом као што је био с оцем мојим.
14 But while I am still alive, please be kind to me in the same way that Yahweh is kind to me, and do not kill me [when you become king].
А и ти, докле сам жив, чинићеш мени милост Господњу да не погинем;
15 But [if I die, ] never stop being kind to my family, [even] after Yahweh has gotten rid of all your enemies all over the earth.”
И нећеш ускратити милости своје дому мом довека, ни онда кад Господ истреби све непријатеље Давидове са земље.
16 [David agreed]. So Jonathan made a solemn agreement with David. And he said, “I hope/desire that Yahweh will get rid of all your enemies.”
Тако Јонатан учини веру с домом Давидовим говорећи: Господ нека тражи из руку непријатеља Давидових.
17 And Jonathan requested David to repeat his solemn promise to be his close friend, because Jonathan loved David as much as he loved himself.
И још закле Јонатан Давида љубављу својом к њему, јер га љубљаше као своју душу
18 Then Jonathan said, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. When you are not sitting at your place when we eat, my father will (miss you/see that you are not there).
Потом рече му Јонатан: Сутра је младина, и питаће се за те, јер ће твоје место бити празно.
19 The day after tomorrow, in the evening, go to the place where you hid before. Wait by the pile of stones.
А ти чекај до трећег дана, па онда отиди брзо и дођи на место где си се био сакрио кад се ово радило, и седи код камена Езила.
20 I will come out and shoot three arrows as though I were trying to shoot at a target. [The arrows will hit the ground] close to the pile of stones.
А ја ћу бацити три стреле украј тог камена, као да гађам белегу.
21 Then I will send a boy to bring the arrows back to me. If you hear me say to him, ‘They are closer to me’, then as surely as Yahweh lives, you will know that everything is fine, [and that Saul will not kill you].
И ево послаћу момка говорећи му: Иди, нађи стреле. Ако кажем момку: Ето стреле су за тобом овамо ближе, дигни их; тада дођи, добро је по те, и неће ти бити ништа, тако жив био Господ!
22 But if I tell him, ‘The arrows are farther away’, you will know that you must leave immediately, because Yahweh wants you to run away.
Ако ли овако кажем момку: Ето стреле су пред тобом, тамо даље; онда иди, јер те Господ шаље.
23 I hope/desire that Yahweh will watch you and me and enable us to never forget what we have promised each other.”
А за ове речи што рекосмо ја и ти, ево, Господ је сведок између мене и тебе довека.
24 So David went and hid in the field. When the Festival of the New Moon started, the king sat down to eat.
Потом се Давид сакри у пољу; и дође младина, и цар седе за сто да једе.
25 He sat where he usually sat, close to the wall. Jonathan sat across from him, and Abner [the army commander] sat next to Saul. But no one was sitting in the place where David [usually sat].
А кад цар седе на своје место, по обичају на место код зида, Јонатан уста, а Авенир седе до Саула, а место Давидово беше празно.
26 On that day, Saul did not say anything about David, because he was thinking, “Something must have happened that caused David to become unacceptable [to worship God].”
И Саул не рече ништа онај дан, јер мишљаше, догодило му се штагод, те није чист, зацело није чист.
27 But the next day, when David was not sitting at the place where he usually sat, Saul asked Jonathan, “Why has that son of Jesse not been here to eat with us yesterday and today?”
А сутрадан, други дан месеца, опет беше празно место Давидово, а Саул рече Јонатану сину свом: Зашто син Јесејев не дође на обед ни јуче ни данас?
28 Jonathan replied, “David earnestly requested me that I permit him to go to Bethlehem.
А Јонатан одговори Саулу: Врло ме је молио Давид да отиде до Витлејема,
29 He said, ‘Please allow me to go, because our family is going to offer a sacrifice. My [older] brother insisted that I be there. So please allow me to go to be with my [older] brothers.’ [I allowed David to go], and that is the reason that he is not here eating with you.”
Рекавши: Пусти ме, јер породица наша има жртву у граду, и сам ми је брат заповедио; ако сам, дакле, нашао милост пред тобом, да отидем и видим браћу своју. Зато није дошао на царев обед.
30 Saul was (furious/very angry) with Jonathan. He yelled at him, “You stupid bastard [EUP]! I know that you are being loyal to that son of Jesse. By doing that, you will bring shame to yourself and to your mother.
Тада се разгневи Саул на Јонатана, те му рече: Неваљали и непослушни сине! Зар ја не знам да си изабрао сина Јесејевог себи на срамоту и на срамоту својој неваљалој мајци?
31 As long as Jesse’s son is living, you will never become the king, and you will never rule over a kingdom! So now, summon David, and bring him to me. He must be executed!”
Јер, докле је жив син Јесејев на земљи, нећеш се утврдити ни ти ни царство твоје; зато пошљи сада и доведи га к мени, јер је заслужио смрт.
32 Jonathan asked his father, “Why should David be executed? What wrong has he done?”
А Јонатан одговори Саулу оцу свом и рече му: Зашто да се погуби? Шта је учинио?
33 Then Saul threw his spear at Jonathan in order to kill him, [but the spear did not hit him]. So Jonathan knew that his father really wanted to kill David.
Тада се Саул баци копљем на њ да га убије. Тада виде Јонатан да је отац његов наумио убити Давида.
34 Jonathan was very angry, and he left the room. On that second day of the festival, he refused to eat anything. He was disgusted about what his father had done, and he was worried about David.
И уста Јонатан од стола његовог, и ништа не једе други дан по младини; јер се забрину за Давида, што га отац осрамоти.
35 The following morning Jonathan went out to the field to give a message to David, like he had agreed that he would do. He took a young boy with him.
А кад би ујутру, изађе Јонатан у поље у време како беше уговорио с Давидом, и с њим једно момче.
36 Jonathan said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” The boy started running, and Jonathan shot an arrow ahead of the boy.
И рече момку свом: Трчи да ми нађеш стреле које ћу пустити. И момче отрча, а он пусти стрелу преко њега.
37 When the boy ran to the place where the arrow hit the ground, Jonathan called out, “The arrow is further away!” [RHQ]
А кад дође момак до места куда беше застрелио Јонатан, викну Јонатан за момком говорећи: Није ли стрела даље напред?
38 Then he shouted to the boy, “Act quickly; do not wait! Do not stop!” The boy picked up the arrow and brought it back to Jonathan.
Још викну Јонатан за момком: Брже, не стој. И момак Јонатанов покупи стреле, и врати се господару свом.
39 But the boy did not understand the meaning of what Jonathan had said; only Jonathan and David knew.
Али момак не знаше ништа, само Јонатан и Давид знаху шта је.
40 Then Jonathan gave his bow and arrows to the boy and told him, “Go back to the town.”
И Јонатан даде оружје своје момку који беше с њим, и рече му: Иди, однеси у град.
41 When the boy left, David came out from the south side of the pile of stones behind which he had been hiding. He went to Jonathan and bowed [in front of Jonathan] three times, with his face touching the ground. Then David and Jonathan kissed each other [on the cheek/neck], and they cried together. But David cried more than Jonathan.
И кад момак отиде, Давид уста с јужне стране и паде ничице на земљу, и поклони се три пута, и пољубише се, и плакаше обојица, а Давид особито.
42 Jonathan said to David, “May things go well for you as you go. Yahweh has heard what we solemnly promised to always do for each other, and what we said that our descendants must do for each other.” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town.
И рече Јонатан Давиду: Иди с миром, као што смо се заклели обојица именом Господњим рекавши: Господ да је сведок између мене и тебе и између мог семена и твог семена довека. И тако Давид уставши отиде, а Јонатан се врати у град.
