DK latinica Serbian Bible: Daničić–Karadžić (Latin script) WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon) 1 I javiše Joavu: Evo car plače i tuži za Avesalomom. 1 Joab was told, “Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.”
2 I pobeda onog dana pretvori se u žalost svemu narodu, jer narod ču u onaj dan gde govore: Žali car sina svog. 2 The victory that day was turned into mourning among all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king grieves for his son.”
3 I narod se u onaj dan krio ulazeći u grad kao što se krije narod koji se stidi kad pobegne iz boja. 3 The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
4 A car pokri lice svoje; i vikaše glasno: Sine moj Avesalome! Avesalome sine moj, sine moj! 4 The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
5 Tada uđe Joav k caru u kuću, i reče: Posramio si danas sve sluge svoje, koje ti danas dušu sačuvaše, i sinovima tvojim i kćerima tvojim i ženama tvojim i inočama tvojim. 5 Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all your servants who today have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;
6 Jer ljubiš one koji mrze na te, a mrziš na one koji te ljube; jer si pokazao danas da ne mariš za vojvode i za sluge; i vidim danas da bi ti milo bilo da je Avesalom živ, a mi svi da smo izginuli. 6 in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.
7 Zato ustani sada, i iziđi i progovori lepo slugama svojim; jer zaklinjem se Gospodom, ako ne iziđeš, neće nijedan ostati kod tebe ovu noć, i to će biti gore po te negoli sva zla koja su te snalazila od mladosti tvoje do sada. 7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak to comfort your servants; for I swear by Yahweh, if you don’t go out, not a man will stay with you this night. That would be worse to you than all the evil that has happened to you from your youth until now.”
8 Tada usta car, i sede na vratima; i kazaše svemu narodu govoreći: Evo, sedi car na vratima. I dođe sav narod pred cara. Ali Izrailjci behu pobegli, svak u svoj šator. 8 Then the king arose and sat in the gate. The people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” All the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9 I sav se narod svađaše među sobom po svim plemenima Izrailjevim govoreći: Car nas je izbavio iz ruku neprijatelja naših, i izbavio nas je iz ruku filistejskih; a sada je pobegao iz zemlje od Avesaloma. 9 All the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
10 Avesalom pak, kog pomazasmo za cara nad sobom, pogibe u boju. Sada dakle zašto oklevate te ne dovedete natrag cara? 10 Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why don’t you speak a word of bringing the king back?”
11 Zato car David posla k Sadoku i Avijataru sveštenicima i poruči: Govorite starešinama Judinim i recite: Zašto vi da budete poslednji koji će cara natrag dovesti u kuću njegovu? Jer govor svega Izrailja dođe do cara u kuću njegovu. 11 King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house?
12 Vi ste moja braća, vi ste kost moja i telo moje. Zašto biste dakle bili poslednji koji će natrag dovesti cara? 12 You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’
13 Recite i Amasi: Nisi li kost moja i telo moje? Bog neka mi učini tako i tako neka doda, ako mi ne budeš vojvoda dok si živ namesto Joava. 13 Say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you aren’t captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’”
14 I skloni srca svih ljudi od roda Judina kao jednog čoveka, te poslaše k caru govoreći: Vrati se sa svim slugama svojim. 14 He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.”
15 I tako se car vrati, i dođe do Jordana; a Juda dođe do Galgala da srete cara i da ga prevede preko Jordana. 15 So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
16 Pohita i Simej, sin Girin, od Venijamina, koji beše iz Vaurima, i siđe s ljudima roda Judinog na susret caru Davidu; 16 Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
17 i hiljadu ljudi beše s njim od roda Venijaminovog; takođe i Siva sluga doma Saulovog s petnaest sinova svojih i dvadeset sluga svojih; i pređoše preko Jordana pred cara. 17 There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul’s house, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
18 Preturiše i lađu da prevezu čeljad carevu i da učine šta bi mu bilo ugodno. A Simej, sin Girin, pade pred carem, kad htede da pređe preko Jordana, 18 A ferry boat went to bring over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had come over the Jordan.
19 i reče caru: Ne primi mi bezakonja, gospodaru moj, i ne pominji pakosti koju je učinio sluga tvoj u onaj dan kad je car gospodar moj izašao iz Jerusalima; neka car ne misli o tome. 19 He said to the king, “Don’t let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
20 Jer sluga tvoj vidi da je zgrešio; i evo došao sam danas prvi iz svega doma Josifovog da sretnem cara, gospodara svog. 20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore behold, I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
21 Ali odgovori Avisaj sin Serujin i reče: Eda li toga radi neće poginuti Simej što je psovao pomazanika Gospodnjeg? 21 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered, “Shouldn’t Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Yahweh’s anointed?”
22 A David reče: Šta je vama do mene, sinovi Serujini, te ste mi danas protivnici? Zar će danas ko poginuti u Izrailju, jer zar ne znam da sam danas postao car nad Izrailjem? 22 David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For don’t I know that I am king over Israel today?”
23 I reče car Simeju: Nećeš poginuti. I zakle mu se car. 23 The king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” The king swore to him.
24 Tako i Mefivostej, sin Saulov, dođe caru na susret; on, pak, ne opra nogu svojih, niti brade svoje očešlja, ni opra haljine svoje od onog dana kad otide car do dana kad se vrati s mirom. 24 Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither groomed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
25 I srete cara kad se vraćaše u Jerusalim; i reče mu car: Zašto ne pođe sa mnom, Mefivosteju? 25 When he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why didn’t you go with me, Mephibosheth?”
26 A on reče: Caru gospodaru moj, prevari me sluga moj; jer sluga tvoj reče: Osedlaću sebi magarca i uzjahaću ga i poći ću s carem; jer je hrom sluga tvoj. 26 He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.
27 I on opade slugu tvog kod gospodara mog cara; ali je car gospodar moj kao anđeo Božji; zato čini šta ti je drago. 27 He has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.
28 Jer sav dom oca mog behu ljudi koji zaslužiše smrt pred carem gospodarem mojim, a ti posadi slugu svog među one koji jedu za stolom tvojim, pa kako imaš još pravo, i kako se mogu još tužiti caru? 28 For all my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I yet that I should appeal any more to the king?”
29 A car mu reče: Šta bi mi više govorio? Kazao sam: Ti i Siva podelite njivu. 29 The king said to him, “Why do you speak any more of your matters? I say, you and Ziba divide the land.”
30 A Mefivostej reče caru: Neka uzme sve, kad se car gospodar moj vratio na miru u dom svoj. 30 Mephibosheth said to the king, “Yes, let him take all, because my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
31 I Varzelaj od Galada dođe iz Rogelima, i pođe s carem preko Jordana da ga prati preko Jordana. 31 Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went over the Jordan with the king to conduct him over the Jordan.
32 A beše Varzelaj vrlo star, beše mu osamdeset godina, i hranjaše cara dok beše u Mahanajimu, jer beše vrlo bogat čovek. 32 Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even eighty years old. He had provided the king with sustenance while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
33 I reče car Varzelaju: Hajde sa mnom; ja ću te hraniti kod sebe u Jerusalimu. 33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will sustain you with me in Jerusalem.”
34 Ali Varzelaj reče caru: Koliko ima veka mog, da idem s carem u Jerusalim? 34 Barzillai said to the king, “How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
35 Ima mi danas osamdeset godina; mogu li raspoznavati dobro i zlo? Može li sluga tvoj kusom razlikovati šta će jesti i šta će piti? Mogu li jošte slušati glas pevačima i pevačicama? I zašto bi sluga tvoj još bio na tegotu caru, gospodaru mom? 35 I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?
36 Malo će proći sluga tvoj preko Jordana s carem; a zašto bi mi car tako naplatio? 36 Your servant will just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
37 Neka se sluga tvoj vrati, da umrem u svom gradu kod groba oca svog i matere svoje. Nego evo, sluga tvoj Himam neka ide s carem gospodarem mojim, i učini njemu šta ti bude drago. 37 Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good to you.”
38 A car reče: Neka ide sa mnom Himam; ja ću mu učiniti šta bude tebi drago, i šta god zaišteš u mene, sve ću ti učiniti. 38 The king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good to you. Whatever you request of me, that I will do for you.”
39 I kad pređe sav narod preko Jordana i car pređe, celiva car Varzelaja i blagoslovi ga, i on se vrati u mesto svoje. 39 All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
40 Otuda car otide u Galgal, i Himam otide s njim. I tako sav narod Judin doprati cara, i polovina naroda Izrailjevog. 40 So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
41 A gle, svi ljudi Izrailjci dođoše k caru i rekoše mu: Zašto te ukradoše braća naša, ljudi Judini, i prevedoše preko Jordana cara i dom njegov i sve ljude Davidove s njim? 41 Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”
42 A svi ljudi od Jude odgovoriše ljudima od Izrailja: Jer je car nama rod; pa što se srdite toga radi? Jesmo li šta pojeli caru? Je li nas darom darivao? 42 All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”
43 Tada odgovoriše ljudi od Izrailja ljudima od Jude, i rekoše: Mi imamo deset delova u cara, i Davidu smo više nego vi; zašto dakle ne mariste za nas? Nismo li mi prvi govorili da dovedemo natrag cara svog? Ali beseda ljudi od Jude beše tvrđa od besede ljudi od Izrailja. 43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
