1 Samuelova 19
1 Mluvil pak Saul k Jonatovi synu svému a ke všechněm služebníkům svým, aby zamordovali Davida, ale Jonata syn Saulův liboval sobě Davida velmi.
And Saul gave orders to his son Jonathan and to all his servants to put David to death. But Saul's son Jonathan had great delight in David.
2 I oznámil to Jonata Davidovi, řka: Usiluje Saul otec můj, aby tě zabil; protož nyní šetř se, prosím, až do jitra, a usadě se v skrytě, schovej se.
And Jonathan said to David, Saul, my father, is purposing your death: so now, take care in the morning, and keep yourself safe in a secret place:
3 Ale jáť vyjdu a státi budu při boku otci svému na poli, kdež ty budeš, a budu mluviti o tobě s otcem svým, a čemuž vyrozumím, oznámím tobě.
And I will go out and take my place by my father's side in the field near where you are; and I will get into talk with my father about you, and when I see how things are, I will give you word.
4 I mluvil Jonata o Davidovi dobře Saulovi otci svému, a řekl: Nechť nehřeší král proti služebníku svému Davidovi, nebť jest nic tobě neprovinil, nýbrž správa jeho jest tobě velmi užitečná.
And Jonathan gave his father Saul a good account of David, and said to him, Let not the king do wrong against his servant, against David; because he has done you no wrong, and all his acts have had a good outcome for you:
5 Nebo se opovážil života svého a zabil Filistinského, a učinil Hospodin vysvobození veliké všemu Izraeli. Viděls to a radoval jsi se. Pročež bys tedy hřešil proti krvi nevinné, chtěje zabiti Davida bez příčiny?
For he put his life in danger and overcame the Philistine, and the Lord gave all Israel salvation: you saw it and were glad: why then are you sinning against him who has done no wrong, desiring the death of David without cause?
6 I uposlechl Saul řeči Jonatovy a přisáhl Saul, řka: Živť jest Hospodin, žeť nebude zabit.
And Saul gave ear to the voice of Jonathan, and said with an oath, By the living Lord, he is not to be put to death.
7 Tedy Jonata povolal Davida, a oznámil jemu Jonata všecka slova tato. A přivedl Jonata Davida k Saulovi, i byl před ním jako i prvé.
Then Jonathan sent for David and gave him word of all these things. And Jonathan took David to Saul, who kept him by his side as in the past.
8 Vznikla pak opět válka; a vytáh David, bojoval proti Filistinským, a porazil je porážkou velikou, a utekli před ním.
And there was war again: and David went out fighting the Philistines, causing great destruction among them; and they went in flight before him.
9 V tom duch Hospodinův zlý napadl Saule, kterýž v domě svém seděl, maje kopí své v ruce své, a David hrál rukou před ním.
And an evil spirit from the Lord came on Saul, when he was seated in his house with his spear in his hand; and David made music for him.
10 Ale Saul chtěl prohoditi Davida kopím až do stěny; kterýž uhnul se mu, a udeřilo kopí v stěnu. A tak David utekl a vynikl z nebezpečenství té noci.
And Saul would have sent his spear through him, pinning him to the wall, but he got away and the spear went into the wall: and that night David went in flight and got away.
11 Potom poslal Saul posly k domu Davidovu, aby ho střáhli a zabili jej ráno. I oznámila to Davidovi Míkol manželka jeho, řkuci: Jestliže se neopatříš noci této, zítra zabit budeš.
Then in that night Saul sent men to David's house to keep watch on him so as to put him to death in the morning: and David's wife Michal said to him, If you do not go away to a safe place tonight you will be put to death in the morning.
12 A protož spustila Míkol Davida oknem, kterýž odšed, utekl a vynikl z nebezpečenství.
So Michal let David down through the window, and he went in flight and got away.
13 Vzala pak Míkol obraz a vložila na lůže, a polštář kozí položila v hlavách jeho a přikryla šaty.
Then Michal took the image and put it in the bed, with a cushion of goat's hair at its head, and she put clothing over it.
14 Tedy Saul poslal posly, aby vzali Davida. I řekla: Jest nemocen.
And when Saul sent men to take David, she said, He is ill.
15 Opět poslal Saul posly, aby pohleděli na Davida, řka: Přineste ho na lůži ke mně, ať ho zabiji.
And Saul sent his men to see David, saying, Do not come back without him, take him in his bed, so that I may put him to death.
16 A když přišli poslové, a aj, obraz ležel na lůži a polštář kozí v hlavách jeho.
And when the men came in, there was the image in the bed, with the cushion of goat's hair at its head
17 I řekl Saul k Míkol: Proč jsi mne tak podvedla a pustilas nepřítele mého, aby ušel? Odpověděla Míkol Saulovi: On mi řekl: Propusť mne, sic jinak zabiji tě.
And Saul said to Michal, why have you been false to me, letting my hater go and get safely away? And in answer Michal said to Saul, He said to me, Let me go, or I will put you to death.
18 David tedy utíkaje, vynikl z nebezpečenství, a přišed k Samuelovi do Ráma, oznámil jemu všecko, co mu Saul učinil. I odšel on i Samuel, a bydlili v Náiot.
So David went in flight and got away and came to Ramah, to Samuel, and gave him an account of all Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and were living in Naioth.
19 Oznámeno pak bylo Saulovi, řka: Aj, David jest v Náiot v Ráma.
And word was given to Saul that David was at Naioth in Ramah.
20 I poslal Saul posly, aby jali Davida. Kteříž když viděli zástup proroků prorokujících, a Samuele jim představeného, an stojí, sstoupil také na posly Saulovy Duch Boží, a prorokovali i oni.
And Saul sent men to take David; and when they saw the band of prophets at work, with Samuel in his place at their head, the spirit of God came on Saul's men, and they became like prophets.
21 To když oznámili Saulovi, poslal jiné posly, a prorokovali také i oni; a opět poslal Saul třetí posly, a i ti prorokovali.
And Saul, having news of this, sent other men, who in the same way became like prophets. And a third time Saul sent men, and they like the others became like prophets.
22 Šel tedy již sám do Ráma a přišel až k čisterni veliké, kteráž jest v Socho, a zeptal se, řka: Kde jest Samuel a David? I řekl někdo: Aj, jsou v Náiot v Ráma.
Then he himself went to Ramah, and came to the great water-spring in Secu; and questioning the people he said, Where are Samuel and David? And one said, They are at Naioth in Ramah.
23 I šel tam do Náiot v Ráma; a sstoupil i na něj Duch Boží, a jda dále, prorokoval, až i přišel do Náiot v Ráma.
And he went on from there to Naioth in Ramah: and the spirit of God came on him, and he went on, acting like a prophet, till he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 Kdežto svlékl také sám roucho své a prorokoval i on před Samuelem, a padna, ležel svlečený celý ten den a noc. Odkudž se říká: Zdali také Saul mezi proroky?
And he took off his clothing, acting like a prophet before Samuel, and falling down he was stretched out, without his clothing, all that day and all that night. This is the reason for the saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?
