I Chronicles 21

And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

Tada Satan ustade na Izraela i potače Davida da izbroji Izraelce.

And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer–sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.

Kralj reče Joabu i narodnim knezovima: "Idite, izbrojte Izraelce od Beer Šebe pa do Dana, onda se vratite i kažite mi koliko ih je na broju."

And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?

Joab reče: "Neka Jahve dade svome narodu još sto puta ovoliko koliko ga je sada! Nisu li, moj gospodaru kralju, svi oni sluge mome gospodaru? Zašto traži to moj gospodar? Zašto da bude na krivicu Izraelu?"

Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.

Ali kraljeva riječ bijaše jača od Joabove. Tako je Joab otišao i počeo obilaziti sav Izrael, a onda se, najposlije, vrati u Jeruzalem.

And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.

Joab dade Davidu popis naroda; Izraelaca bijaše milijun i sto tisuća ljudi vičnih maču, a Judejaca četiri stotine i sedamdeset tisuća vičnih maču.

But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

Ali nije pobrojio među njima ni Levijeva ni Benjaminova plemena, jer je Joabu bila odvratna kraljeva zapovijed.

And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.

Bilo je to mrsko i u Božjim očima, pa Bog udari Izraela.

And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.

David reče Bogu: "Veoma sam sagriješio što sam to učinio. Ali oprosti krivicu svome sluzi jer sam vrlo ludo radio!"

And the LORD spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,

Jahve reče Davidovu vidiocu Gadu:

Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.

"Idi i kaži Davidu: 'Ovako veli Jahve: Troje stavljam preda te; izaberi sebi jedno od toga da ti učinim!'"

So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Choose thee

Došavši k Davidu, Gad mu reče: "Ovako veli Jahve: 'Biraj sebi

Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

ili glad za tri godine, ili da tri mjeseca bježiš pred neprijateljima i mač tvojih neprijatelja da te stiže, ili da tri dana Jahvin mač i kuga bude na zemlji i Jahvin anđeo da ubija po svim izraelskim krajevima.' Sada promisli i gledaj što da odgovorim onome koji me poslao!"

And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.

David reče Gadu: "Na velikoj sam muci! Ah, neka padnem u Jahvine ruke, jer je veliko njegovo milosrđe, a u ljudske ruke da ne zapadnem!"

So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.

Tako je Jahve poslao kugu na Izraela te pomrije sedamdeset tisuća Izraelaca.

And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

Bog je poslao anđela na Jeruzalem da ga istrebljuje; a kad je počeo istrebljivati, pogledao je Jahve i sažalilo mu se zbog zla, pa je rekao anđelu zatorniku: "Dosta je sada, spusti ruku!" Jahvin je anđeo stajao kraj gumna Jebusejca Ornana.

And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

David, podigavši oči, vidje Jahvina anđela kako stoji između zemlje i neba držeći u ruci isukan mač koji je podigao na Jeruzalem, i on pade ničice sa starješinama obučenim u kostrijet.

And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.

David reče Bogu: "Nisam li ja zapovjedio da se izbroji narod? Ja sam, dakle, onaj koji sam sagriješio i grdno zlo načinio, a što učiniše te ovce? Jahve, Bože moj, neka tvoja ruka dođe na me i na moju obitelj, a ne na taj narod da ga pomori!"

Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.

Tada Jahvin anđeo reče Gadu da kaže Davidu neka uziđe i neka podigne žrtvenik Jahvi na gumnu Jebusejca Ornana.

And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the LORD.

David je otišao po riječi koju mu je Gad rekao u Jahvino ime.

And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.

A Ornan, okrenuvši se, opazi anđela, a njegova se četiri sina sakriše. Ornan je vrhao pšenicu.

And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.

Uto dođe David do Ornana, a on, pogledavši i opazivši Davida, dođe s gumna i pokloni se Davidu licem do zemlje.

Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshingfloor, that I may build an altar therein unto the LORD: thou shalt grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.

Tada David reče Ornanu: "Daj mi to gumno da sagradim na njemu žrtvenik Jahvi; za potpunu cijenu daj mi ga da bi prestao pomor u narodu!"

And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.

Ornan odgovori Davidu: "Neka ga uzme i neka čini moj gospodar kralj što je dobro u njegovim očima; evo, dajem ti goveda za paljenice, i mlatilice za drva, i pšenicu za prinosnicu; sve ti to poklanjam."

And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.

Kralj David reče Ornanu: "Ne, nego hoću da kupim u tebe i da platim, jer neću da prinosim Jahvi što je tvoje, da prinosim paljenice koje su mi poklonjene."

So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.

I David dade Ornanu za ono mjesto šest stotina zlatnih šekela na mjeru.

And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.

Tada sagradi ondje žrtvenik Jahvi i prinese paljenice i pričesnice; a kad je prizvao Jahvu, on ga usliša spustivši oganj s neba na žrtvenik za paljenice.

And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.

Jahve zapovjedi anđelu da vrati mač u korice.

At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.

U ono vrijeme, vidjevši da ga je Jahve uslišio na gumnu Jebusejca Ornana, David poče prinositi žrtve ondje.

For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon.

Jahvino prebivalište, koje je napravio Mojsije u pustinji, i žrtvenik za paljenice bio je u to vrijeme na uzvisini u Gibeonu.

But David could not go before it to enquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.

David nije mogao ići k njemu da traži Boga jer ga je bio spopao strah od mača Jahvina anđela.
