DK latinica Serbian Bible: Daničić–Karadžić (Latin script) WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon) 1 A posle toga David upita Gospoda govoreći: Hoću li otići u koji grad Judin? A Gospod mu reče: Otidi. A David reče: U koji da otidem? Reče: Hevron. 1 After this, David inquired of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?” Yahweh said to him, “Go up.” David said, “Where shall I go up?” He said, “To Hebron.”
2 I David otide onamo sa dve žene svoje, Ahinoamom iz Jezraela i Avigejom koja pre beše žena Navala iz Karmila. 2 So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
3 I ljude koji behu s njim odvede David, sve s porodicama njihovim, i nastaniše se po gradovima hevronskim. 3 David brought up his men who were with him, every man with his household. They lived in the cities of Hebron.
4 I dođoše ljudi od Jude, i pomazaše onde Davida za cara nad domom Judinim. I javiše Davidu govoreći: Ljudi iz Javisa Galadovog pogreboše Saula. 4 The men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. They told David, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were those who buried Saul.”
5 I David posla poslanike k ljudima u Javisu Galadovom, i reče im: Da ste blagosloveni Gospodu što učiniste milost gospodaru svom, Saulu i pogreboste ga. 5 David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, “Blessed are you by Yahweh, that you have shown this kindness to your lord, even to Saul, and have buried him.
6 Zato da učini Gospod vama milost i veru; a ja ću vam učiniti dobro, što ste to učinili. 6 Now may Yahweh show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.
7 I neka vam se ukrepe ruke i budite hrabri; jer Saul, gospodar vaš, pogibe, a dom Judin pomaza mene za cara nad sobom. 7 Now therefore let your hands be strong, and be valiant; for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed me king over them.”
8 Ali Avenir, sin Nirov, vojvoda Saulov uze Isvosteja sina Saulovog, i odvede ga u Mahanajim. 8 Now Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul’s army, had taken Ishbosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim.
9 I zacari ga nad Galadom i nad Asurom i Jezraelom i Jefremom i Venijaminom i nad svim Izrailjem. 9 He made him king over Gilead, over the Ashurites, over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
10 Četrdeset godina beše Isvosteju sinu Saulovom kad poče carovati nad Izrailjem; i carova dve godine. Samo dom Judin držaše se Davida. 10 Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
11 A David carova u Hevronu nad domom Judinim sedam godina i šest meseci. 11 The time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
12 Potom iziđe Avenir, sin Nirov, i sluge Isvosteja sina Saulovog iz Mahanajima u Gavaon. 12 Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
13 Takođe i Joav sin Serujin i sluge Davidove iziđoše i sretoše se s njima kod jezera gavaonskog, i stadoše jedan s jedne strane a drugi s druge strane. 13 Joab the son of Zeruiah and David’s servants went out, and met them by the pool of Gibeon; and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool and the other on the other side of the pool.
14 Tada reče Avenir Joavu: Neka ustanu momci i neka se proigraju pred nama. I reče Joav: Neka ustanu. 14 Abner said to Joab, “Please let the young men arise and compete before us!” Joab said, “Let them arise!”
15 I ustadoše, i iziđoše na broj: dvanaest od Venijamina sa strane Isvosteja sina Saulovog, i dvanaest između sluga Davidovih. 15 Then they arose and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin and for Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of David’s servants.
16 I uhvatiše jedan drugog za glavu, i tisnu jedan drugom mač svoj u bok, i popadaše zajedno. Otuda se prozva ono mesto Halkat-Asurim kod Gavaona. 16 They each caught his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his fellow’s side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place in Gibeon was called Helkath Hazzurim.
17 I bi žestok boj onog dana; i sluge Davidove razbiše Avenira i Izrailjce. 17 The battle was very severe that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before David’s servants.
18 A onde behu tri sina Serujina: Joav i Avisaj i Asailo. A Asailo beše lak na nogu kao srna u polju; 18 The three sons of Zeruiah were there: Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Asahel was as light of foot as a wild gazelle.
19 i potera Asailo Avenira, i ne svrnu ni nadesno ni nalevo iza Avenira. 19 Asahel pursued Abner. He didn’t turn to the right hand or to the left from following Abner.
20 I Avenir obazre se natrag i reče: Jesi li ti, Asailo? A on reče: Ja sam. 20 Then Abner looked behind him and said, “Is that you, Asahel?” He answered, “It is.”
21 A Avenir mu reče: Svrni nadesno ili nalevo, i uzmi jednog od tih momaka, i skini odoru s njega. Ali ne hte Asailo svrnuti iza njega. 21 Abner said to him, “Turn away to your right hand or to your left, and grab one of the young men, and take his armor.” But Asahel would not turn away from following him.
22 I Avenir opet reče Asailu: Odstupi od mene; zašto da te sastavim sa zemljom? I kako bih smeo pogledati u Joava brata tvog? 22 Abner said again to Asahel, “Turn away from following me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then could I look Joab your brother in the face?”
23 Ali on ne hte odstupiti; i Avenir ga udari kopljem pod peto rebro, i izađe mu koplje na leđa, te on pade onde i umre na mestu. I ko god dođe na ono mesto gde pade i pogibe Asailo, ustavljaše se. 23 However, he refused to turn away. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there and died in the same place. As many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
24 Ali Joav i Avisaj poteraše Avenira, i sunce zađe kad dođoše do brda Ame, koja je prema Giji na putu u pustinju gavaonsku. 24 But Joab and Abishai pursued Abner. The sun went down when they had come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
25 I skupiše se sinovi Venijaminovi za Avenirom, te se načini četa, i stadoše na vrh jednog brda. 25 The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner and became one band, and stood on the top of a hill.
26 I Avenir viknu Joava i reče: Hoće li mač proždirati doveka? Ne znaš li da jadi bivaju naposletku? Zašto već ne kažeš narodu da se prođu braće svoje? 26 Then Abner called to Joab, and said, “Shall the sword devour forever? Don’t you know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long will it be then, before you ask the people to return from following their brothers?”
27 A Joav reče: Tako živ bio Bog, da nisi kazao, narod bi još jutros otišao, nijedan ne bi terao brata svog. 27 Joab said, “As God lives, if you had not spoken, surely then in the morning the people would have gone away, and not each followed his brother.”
28 Tada zatrubi Joav u trubu, i ustavi se sav narod i prestaše terati Izrailja, i ne biše se više. 28 So Joab blew the trumpet; and all the people stood still and pursued Israel no more, and they fought no more.
29 I tako Avenir i ljudi njegovi idoše preko polja celu onu noć, i pređoše preko Jordana, i prošavši sav Vitron dođoše u Mahanajim. 29 Abner and his men went all that night through the Arabah; and they passed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and came to Mahanaim.
30 A Joav se vrati od Avenira, i kad skupi sav narod, ne beše od sluga Davidovih devetnaest ljudi i Asaila. 30 Joab returned from following Abner; and when he had gathered all the people together, nineteen men of David’s and Asahel were missing.
31 Ali sluge Davidove pobiše sinova Venijaminovih, ljudi Avenirovih, tri stotine i šezdeset ljudi, koji izgiboše. 31 But David’s servants had struck Benjamin and Abner’s men so that three hundred sixty men died.
32 A Asaila uzeše i pogreboše u grobu oca njegovog koji beše u Vitlejemu. I Joav i ljudi njegovi idoše svu noć, i osvanuše u Hevronu. 32 They took up Asahel and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. Joab and his men went all night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
