Capitolo 15
1
A Samuilo reče Saulu: Gospod me je poslao da te pomažem za cara nad narodom Njegovim, nad Izrailjem; slušaj dakle reči Gospodnje.
2
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Opomenuh se šta je učinio Amalik Izrailju, kako mu se opro na putu kad je išao iz Misira.
3
Zato idi i pobij Amalika, i zatri kao prokleto sve što god ima; ne žali ga, nego pobij i ljude i žene i decu i šta je na sisi i volove i ovce i kamile i magarce.
4
Tada Saul sazva narod, i izbroja ih u Telaimu, i beše ih dvesta hiljada pešaka i deset hiljada ljudi od Jude.
5
I dođe Saul do grada amaličkog, i namesti zasedu u potoku.
6
I reče Saul Kenejima: Idite, odvojite se, uklonite se od Amalika, da vas ne bi potro s njima; jer ste vi učinili milost svim sinovima Izrailjevim kad su išli iz Misira. I otidoše Keneji od Amalika.
7
I Saul pobi Amalike od Avile do Sura, koji je prema Misiru.
8
I uhvati Agaga cara amaličkog živog, a sav narod njegov pobi oštrim mačem.
9
I Saul i narod njegov poštede Agaga i najbolje ovce i najbolje volove i ugojenu stoku i jaganjce i sve što beše dobro, i ne hteše pobiti; nego šta beše zlo i bez cene, ono pobiše.
10
Zato dođe reč Gospodnja k Samuilu govoreći:
11
Kajem se što sam Saula postavio carem, jer je odstupio od mene, i nije izvršio moje reči. I rasrdi se Samuilo vrlo, i vikaše ka Gospodu svu noć.
12
I ustavši rano Samuilo pođe pred Saula. I javiše Samuilu govoreći: Saul dođe u Karmil, i eno podiže sebi spomenik, pa se vrati odande i otide dalje i siđe u Galgal.
13
Kad Samuilo dođe k Saulu, reče mu Saul: Blagosloven da si Gospodu! Izvršio sam reč Gospodnju.
14
A Samuilo reče: Kakva je to bleka ovaca u ušima mojim? I rika volova koju čujem?
15
A Saul reče: Od Amalika dognaše ih; jer narod poštede najbolje ovce i najbolje volove da prinese na žrtvu Gospodu Bogu tvom; ostalo pak pobismo kao prokleto.
16
A Samuilo reče Saulu: Stani da ti kažem šta mi je rekao Gospod noćas. Reče mu: Govori.
17
Tada reče Samuilo: Nisi li bio mali sam u svojim očima, pak si postao glava plemenima Izrailjevim, i Gospod te pomaza za cara nad Izrailjem?
18
I Gospod te posla na ovaj put i reče: Idi, pobij grešne Amalike, i vojuj na njih dokle ih ne istrebite.
19
Zašto, dakle, ne posluša glas Gospodnji, nego se naklopi na plen, i učini zlo pred Gospodom?
20
A Saul odgovori Samuilu: Ta poslušao sam glas Gospodnji, i išao sam putem kojim me posla Gospod, i doveo sam Agaga cara amaličkog, a Amalike sam istrebio.
21
Nego narod uze od plena ovce i volove, najbolje između prokletih stvari, da prinese na žrtvu Gospodu Bogu tvom u Galgalu.
22
Ali Samuilo reče:
Zar su mile Gospodu žrtve paljenice i prinosi
kao kad se sluša glas Njegov?
Gle, poslušnost je bolja od žrtve
i pokornost od pretiline ovnujske.
23
Jer je neposlušnost kao greh od čaranja,
i nepokornost kao sujeverstvo i idolopoklonstvo.
Odbacio si reč Gospodnju,
zato je i On tebe odbacio da ne budeš više car.
24
Tada reče Saul Samuilu: Zgrešio sam što sam prestupio zapovest Gospodnju i tvoje reči; jer pobojah se naroda i poslušah glas njegov.
25
Nego sada oprosti mi greh moj, i vrati se sa mnom da se poklonim Gospodu.
26
A Samuilo reče Saulu: Neću se vratiti s tobom, jer si odbacio reč Gospodnju, i zato je tebe Gospod odbacio da ne budeš više car nad Izrailjem.
27
I Samuilo se okrete da ide, ali ga Saul uhvati za skut od plašta njegovog, te se odadre.
28
Tada mu reče Samuilo: Odadro je Gospod carstvo Izrailjevo od tebe danas, i dao ga bližnjem tvom, koji je bolji od tebe.
29
I doista Junak Izrailjev neće slagati, niti će se raskajati; jer nije čovek da se kaje.
30
A on reče: Zgrešio sam; ali mi sad učini čast pred starešinama naroda mog i pred Izrailjem, i vrati se sa mnom da se poklonim Gospodu Bogu tvom.
31
I vrativši se Samuilo otide za Saulom, i pokloni se Saul Gospodu.
32
Potom reče Samuilo: Dovedite mi Agaga, cara amaličkog. I dođe k njemu Agag veseo, jer govoraše Agag: Zaista, prošla je gorčina smrtna.
33
Ali Samuilo reče: Kako je tvoj mač učinio te su žene ostale bez dece, tako će ostati bez dece tvoja majka među ženama. I iseče Samuilo Agaga pred Gospodom u Galgalu.
34
Potom otide Samuilo u Ramu, a Saul otide kući svojoj u Gavaju Saulovu.
35
I Samuilo ne vide više Saula do svoje smrti, i plakaše Samuilo za Saulom, što se Gospod pokaja što je postavio Saula carem nad Izrailjem.
1 Samuel
Capitolo 15
1
Samuel also said unto Saul, The LORD sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the LORD.
2
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
3
Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4
And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5
And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
6
¶ And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7
And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.
8
And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9
But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10
¶ Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying,
11
It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
12
And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
13
And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the LORD: I have performed the commandment of the LORD.
14
And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
15
And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
16
Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the LORD hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
17
And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the LORD anointed thee king over Israel?
18
And the LORD sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
19
Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the LORD, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the LORD?
20
And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and have gone the way which the LORD sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
21
But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the LORD thy God in Gilgal.
22
And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
23
For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
24
¶ And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
25
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD.
26
And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
27
And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
28
And Samuel said unto him, The LORD hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.
29
And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.
30
Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God.
31
So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD.
32
¶ Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
33
And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.
34
¶ Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35
And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
