1 Samuelova 23

1 Tedy oznámili Davidovi, řkouce: Aj, Filistinští dobývají Cejly a loupí dvory.

And they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and are robbing the threshing-floors.

2 Protož tázal se David Hospodina, řka: Mám-li jíti a udeřiti na ty Filistinské? I odpověděl Hospodin Davidovi: Jdi a porazíš Filistinské, i Cejlu vysvobodíš.

Therefore David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And Jehovah said to David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.

3 Muži pak Davidovi řekli jemu: Aj, my zde v Judstvu bojíme se, čím více, když půjdeme k Cejle proti vojskům Filistinských.

And David's men said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?

4 A tak opět David tázal se Hospodina. Jemuž odpověděl Hospodin a řekl: Vstana, vytáhni k Cejle, neboť dám Filistinské v ruce tvé.

Then David inquired of Jehovah yet again. And Jehovah answered him, and said, Arise, go down to Keilah, for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

5 I táhl David a muži jeho k Cejle, a bojoval s Filistinskými, a zajal dobytky jejich. I porazil je ranou velikou, a tak vysvobodil David obyvatele Cejly.

And David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and killed them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.

6 Stalo se pak, že když utíkal Abiatar syn Achimelechův k Davidovi do Cejly, dostal se efod v ruce jeho.

And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, that he came down with an ephod in his hand.

7 Potom oznámeno bylo Saulovi, že přitáhl David do Cejly. I řekl Saul: Dalť ho Bůh v ruku mou, nebo zavřel se, všed do města hrazeného a zavřitého.

And it was told Saul that David came to Keilah. And Saul said, God has delivered him into my hand, for he is shut in by entering into a town that has gates and bars.

8 I svolal Saul všecken lid k boji, aby táhl k Cejle, a oblehl Davida i muže jeho.

And Saul summoned all the people to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.

9 A zvěděv David, že Saul tajně ukládá o něm zle, řekl Abiatarovi knězi: Vezmi na se efod.

And David knew that Saul was devising mischief against him, and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring here the ephod.

10 I řekl David: Hospodine, Bože Izraelský, za jistou věc slyšel služebník tvůj, že strojí Saul přitáhnouti k Cejle, aby zkazil město pro mne.

Then said David, O Jehovah, the God of Israel, thy servant has surely heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah to destroy the city for my sake.

11 Vydali-li by mne muži Cejly v ruce jeho? A přitáhl-li by Saul, jakž slyšel služebník tvůj? Hospodine, Bože Izraelský, oznam, prosím, služebníku svému. Odpověděl Hospodin: Přitáhl by.

Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? Will Saul come down as thy servant has heard? O Jehovah, the God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And Jehovah said, He will come down.

12 Řekl ještě David: Vydali-li by mne obyvatelé Cejly i muže mé v ruce Saulovy? Odpověděl Hospodin: Vydali by.

Then David said, Will the men of Keilah deliver up me and my men into the hand of Saul? And Jehovah said, They will deliver thee up.

13 Vstav tedy David a muži jeho, téměř šest set mužů, vytáhli z Cejly a šli ustavičně, kamž jíti mohli. Saulovi pak povědíno, že ušel David z Cejly; i nechal tažení.

Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah, and went wherever they could go. And it was told Saul that David was escaped from Keilah, and he ceased to go forth.

14 Byl pak David na poušti v místech bezpečných, a bydlil na hoře, na poušti Zif. A ačkoli hledal ho Saul po všecky ty dny, však nevydal ho Bůh v ruku jeho.

And David abode in the wilderness in the strongholds, and remained in the hill-country in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not deliver him into his hand.

15 Vida tedy David, že Saul vytáhl hledati bezživotí jeho, byl na poušti Zif v lese.

And David saw that Saul came out to seek his life, and David was in the wilderness of Ziph in the forest.

16 Vstav pak Jonata syn Saulův, přišel k Davidovi do lesa, a posilnil ruky jeho v Bohu.

And Jonathan, Saul's son, arose, and went to David into the forest, and strengthened his hand in God.

17 A řekl jemu: Neboj se, neboť nenalezne tebe ruka Saule otce mého, ale ty kralovati budeš nad Izraelem, a já budu druhý po tobě. Však i Saul otec můj zná to.

And he said to him, Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee. And thou shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to thee. And that, Saul my father also knows.

18 I učinili smlouvu oba před Hospodinem; a David zůstal v lese, Jonata pak navrátil se do domu svého.

And those two made a covenant before Jehovah. And David abode in the forest, and Jonathan went to his house.

19 Tedy přišli Zifejští k Saulovi do Gabaa, řkouce: Zdaliž David nepokrývá se u nás v horách, v lese, na pahrbku Hachile, kterýž jest na pravé straně pouště.

Then the Ziphites came up to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself with us in the strongholds in the forest, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of the desert?

20 Protož nyní podlé vší žádosti duše své, ó králi, přitáhni stěží, my se pak přičiníme, abychom jej vydali v ruce královy.

Now therefore, O king, come down, according to all the desire of thy soul to come down, and our part shall be to deliver him up into the king's hand.

21 I řekl Saul: Požehnaní vy od Hospodina, že mne litujete.

And Saul said, Blessed be ye of Jehovah, for ye have had compassion on me.

22 Jdětež medle, ujisťte se tím ještě lépe, přezvězte a shlédněte místo jeho, kam se obrátí, kdo ho tam viděl; nebo mi praveno, že divných chytrostí užívá.

Go, I pray you, make yet more sure, and know and see his place where his haunt is, and who has seen him there, for it is told me that he deals very shrewdly.

23 Vyšpehujtež tedy a vyzvězte všecky skrejše, v nichž se kryje, a navraťte se ke mně s věcí jistou, i potáhnu s vámi, a jestliže v zemi jest, hledati ho budu ve všech tisících Judských.

See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking-places where he hides himself, and come ye again to me of a certainty. And I will go with you, and it shall come to pass, if he is in the land, that I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.

24 Kteřížto vstavše, navrátili se do Zif před Saulem; David pak a muži jeho byli na poušti Maon, na rovinách po pravé straně pouště.

And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul, but David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah on the south of the desert.

25 Nebo jakž vytáhl Saul s lidem svým hledati ho, oznámeno bylo to Davidovi, kterýž sstoupil s skály a bydlil na poušti Maon. O čemž Saul uslyšav, honil Davida po poušti Maon.

And Saul and his men went to seek him. And they told David. Therefore he came down to the rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.

26 A tak Saul táhl s jedné strany hory, David pak a muži jeho po druhé straně hory. A pospíšil David, aby mohl utéci od tváři Saulovy; nebo Saul s lidem svým obkličovali Davida i muže jeho, aby je zjímali.

And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain. And David made haste to get away for fear of Saul. For Saul and his men encompassed David and his men round about to take them.

27 V tom přišel posel k Saulovi, řka: Pospěš a přiď, nebo Filistinští vtrhli do země.

But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Hasten thee, and come, for the Philistines have made a raid upon the land.

28 A protož navrátil se Saul od honění Davida, táhl proti Filistinským. Pročež nazvali to místo: Skála rozdělující.

So Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines. Therefore they called that place Sela-hammahlekoth.

29 Odšed pak David odtud, bydlil v místech bezpečných Engadi.

And David went up from there, and dwelt in the strongholds of En-gedi.
