< 1 Samuel 25 >

1 Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together and mourned for him, and buried him at his house at Ramah. Then David arose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
У том умре Самуило и сабра се сав Израиљ, и плакаше за њим, и погребоше га у дому његовом у Рами. А Давид уста и сиђе у пустињу Фаранску.
2 There was a man in Maon whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
А беше један човек у Маону, а стока му беше на Кармилу; и беше човек врло богат, јер имаше три хиљаде оваца и хиљаду коза, и тада стрижаше овце своје на Кармилу.
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail. This woman was intelligent and had a beautiful face; but the man was surly and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.
И беше име том човеку Навал, а жени му име Авигеја; и она беше жена разумна и лепа, а он беше тврда срца и опак, а беше од рода Халевовог.
4 David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
И Давид чу у пустињи да Навал стриже овце.
5 David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.
И посла Давид десет момака, и рече Давид момцима: Идите на Кармил, и отидите к Навалу, и поздравите га од мене.
6 Tell him, ‘Long life to you! Peace be to you! Peace be to your house! Peace be to all that you have!
И реците му: Здраво! И мир да ти је, и дому твом да је мир, и свему што имаш да је мир!
7 Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds have now been with us, and we didn’t harm them. Nothing was missing from them all the time they were in Carmel.
Чуо сам да стрижеш овце; пастири су твоји бивали код нас, и не учинисмо им неправде, и ништа им није нестало докле год беху на Кармилу.
8 Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David.’”
Питај слуге своје, и казаће ти. Нека ови момци нађу милост пред тобом, јер дођосмо у добар дан. Дај слугама својим и Давиду сину свом што ти дође до руке.
9 When David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal all those words in the name of David, and waited.
И дођоше момци Давидови, и казаше Навалу у име Давидово све ове речи, и ућуташе.
10 Nabal answered David’s servants and said, “Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.
А Навал одговори слугама Давидовим и рече: Ко је Давид? И ко је син Јесејев? Данас има много слуга које беже од својих господара.
11 Shall I then take my bread, my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who I don’t know where they come from?”
Еда ли ћу узети хлеб свој и воду своју и месо што сам поклао за људе који ми стрижу овце, па дати људима којих не знам одакле су?
12 So David’s young men turned on their way and went back, and came and told him all these words.
Тада се вратише момци Давидови својим путем, вратише се, и дошавши казаше му све ове речи.
13 David said to his men, “Every man put on his sword!” Every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David, and two hundred stayed by the baggage.
А Давид рече својим људима: Припашите сваки свој мач. И припасаше сваки свој мач, и Давид припаса свој мач; и пође за Давидом до четири стотине људи, а двеста осташе код пртљага.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to greet our master; and he insulted them.
Али Авигеји, жени Наваловој, каза један између слуга његових говорећи: Ево, Давид посла из пустиње посланике да поздрави господара нашег, а он их отера.
15 But the men were very good to us, and we were not harmed, and we didn’t miss anything as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.
А ти су нам људи били врло добри. Нити нам учинише криво, нити нам чега неста докле год бејасмо код њих у пољу.
16 They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
Него нам беху зидови и ноћу и дању, докле год бејасмо код њих пасући овце.
17 Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master and against all his house, for he is such a worthless fellow that one can’t speak to him.”
Зато сада гледај и промисли шта ћеш чинити, јер је готово зло господару нашем и свему дому његовом; а он је зао човек, да му се не може говорити.
18 Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two containers of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five seahs of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.
Тада Авигеја брже узе двеста хлебова и две мешине вина и пет оваца зготовљених и пет мерица прженог жита, и сто гроздова сувог грожђа и двеста груда сувих смокава, и метну на магарце.
19 She said to her young men, “Go on before me. Behold, I am coming after you.” But she didn’t tell her husband, Nabal.
И рече момцима својим: Хајдете напред, а ја ћу ићи за вама. А мужу свом Навалу ништа не рече.
20 As she rode on her donkey, and came down hidden by the mountain, behold, David and his men came down toward her, and she met them.
И седавши на магарца иђаше испод горе, а гле Давид и људи његови силажаху пред њу, и сукоби се с њима.
21 Now David had said, “Surely in vain I have kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.
А Давид говораше: Еле сам залуду чувао све што је тај имао у пустињи да му ништа не беше нестало од свега што има; јер ми врати зло за добро.
22 God do so to the enemies of David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
То нека учини Бог непријатељима Давидовим и то нека дода, ако му до зоре од свега што има оставим и оно што мокри уз зид.
23 When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got off her donkey, and fell before David on her face and bowed herself to the ground.
А кад Авигеја угледа Давида, брже сиђе с магарца, и паде пред Давидом на лице своје и поклони се до земље;
24 She fell at his feet and said, “On me, my lord, on me be the blame! Please let your servant speak in your ears. Hear the words of your servant.
И паднувши му к ногама рече: На мени, господару, нека буде та кривица; али да проговори слушкиња твоја теби, и чуј речи слушкиње своје.
25 Please don’t let my lord pay attention to this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your servant, didn’t see my lord’s young men whom you sent.
Нека господар мој не гледа на тог неваљалог човека, Навала, јер је као име што му је; Навал му је име, и безумље је код њега. А ја слушкиња твоја нисам видела момке господара свог које си слао.
26 Now therefore, my lord, as Yahweh lives and as your soul lives, since Yahweh has withheld you from blood guiltiness and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies and those who seek evil to my lord be as Nabal.
Зато сада, господару, тако жив био Господ и тако жива била душа твоја, Господ ти не да да идеш на крв и да се осветиш својом руком. Зато сада нека буде непријатељима твојим као Навалу и свима који траже зла господару мом.
27 Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.
Ево дар што је донела слушкиња господару свом, да се да момцима који иду за господарем мојим.
28 Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For Yahweh will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights Yahweh’s battles. Evil will not be found in you all your days.
Опрости слушкињи својој кривицу; јер ће Господ зацело начинити тврду кућу господару мом; јер ратове Господње води господар мој и није се нашло зло на теби никад за твог века.
29 Though men may rise up to pursue you and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord will be bound in the bundle of life with Yahweh your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies as from a sling’s pocket.
И да устане човек да те гони и тражи душу твоју, душа ће господара мог бити везана у свежњу живих код Господа Бога твог, а душе ће непријатеља твојих бацити као из праћке.
30 It will come to pass, when Yahweh has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and has appointed you prince over Israel,
И кад Господ учини господару мом свако добро које ти је обрекао, и постави те вођом Израиљу,
31 that this shall be no grief to you, nor offense of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. When Yahweh has dealt well with my lord, then remember your servant.”
Неће ти бити спотицања ни саблазни срцу господара мог да је пролио крв низашта и да се сам осветио господар мој. И кад учини Господ добро господару мом, опоменућеш се слушкиње своје.
32 David said to Abigail, “Blessed is Yahweh, the God of Israel, who sent you today to meet me!
Тада рече Давид Авигеји: Да је благословен Господ Бог Израиљев, који те данас посла мени на сусрет!
33 Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, who have kept me today from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.
И да су благословене речи твоје, и ти да си благословена, која ме одврати данас да не идем на крв и осветим се својом руком.
34 For indeed, as Yahweh the God of Israel lives, who has withheld me from harming you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall.”
Доиста, тако жив био Господ Бог Израиљев, који ми не даде да ти учиним зло, да ми ниси брже изашла на сусрет, не би остало Навалу до зоре ни оно што уза зид мокри.
35 So David received from her hand that which she had brought him. Then he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice and have granted your request.”
И прими Давид из руке њене шта му беше донела, и рече јој: Иди с миром кући својој; ето, послушах те, и погледах на те.
36 Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk. Therefore she told him nothing until the morning light.
Потом се Авигеја врати к Навалу; а гле, код њега гозба у кући, као царска гозба, и срце Навалу беше весело, и беше пијан врло. Зато му она не рече ништа до јутра.
37 In the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
А ујутру кад се Навал отрезни, каза му жена све ово; а у њему обамре срце његово, и он поста као камен.
38 About ten days later, Yahweh struck Nabal, so that he died.
А кад прође до десет дана, удари Господ Навала, те умре.
39 When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed is Yahweh, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil. Yahweh has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to himself as wife.
А кад Давид чу да је умро Навал, рече: Да је благословен Господ, који освети срамоту моју од Навала, и задржа слугу свог ода зла, а обрати Господ Навалу на главу злоћу његову. Потом посла Давид и поручи Авигеји да ће је узети за жену.
40 When David’s servants had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you, to take you to him as wife.”
И слуге Давидове дођоше к Авигеји на Кармил, и рекоше јој говорећи: Давид нас посла к теби да те узме за жену.
41 She arose and bowed herself with her face to the earth, and said, “Behold, your servant is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”
А она уста и поклони се лицем до земље, и рече: Ево слушкиње твоје, да служи и да пере ноге слугама господара свог.
42 Abigail hurriedly arose and rode on a donkey with her five maids who followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
Потом брже уста Авигеја, и седе на магарца, и пет девојака њених пође за њом, и отиде за посланицима Давидовим, и поста му жена.
43 David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.
А Давид узе и Ахиноаму из Језраела: и обе му беху жене.
44 Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.
Јер Саул даде Михалу кћер своју, жену Давидовом, Фалтију сину Лаисовом из Галима.
