2 Samuelova 11
1 I stalo se po roce, když králové vyjíždívají na vojnu, že poslal David Joába a služebníky své s ním, též i všecken Izrael, aby hubili Ammonitské; i oblehli Rabba. David pak zůstal v Jeruzalémě.
And it came to pass when the time o the year for kings going out [to battle] had come round, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbath: but David remained at Jerusalem.
2 Tedy stalo se k večerou, když vstal David s ložce svého, procházeje se po paláci domu královského, že uzřel s paláce ženu, ana se myje; kterážto žena byla vzezření velmi krásného.
And it came to pass toward evening, that David arose off his couch, and walked on the roof of the king's house, and saw from the roof a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
3 A poslav David, vyptal se o té ženě a řekl: Není-liž to Betsabé dcera Eliamova, manželka Uriáše Hetejského?
And David sent and enquired about the woman: and [one] said, [Is] not this Bersabee the daughter of Eliab, the wife of Urias the Chettite?
4 Opět poslal David posly a vzal ji. Kterážto když vešla k němu, obýval s ní; (nebo se byla očistila od nečistoty své). Potom navrátila se do domu svého.
And David sent messengers, and took her, and went in to her, and he lay with her: and she was purified from her uncleanness, and returned to her house.
5 I počala žena ta. Protož poslavši, oznámila Davidovi, řkuci: Těhotná jsem.
And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
6 Poslav pak David, vzkázal Joábovi: Pošli ke mně Uriáše Hetejského. I poslal Joáb Uriáše k Davidovi.
And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Urias the Chettite; and Joab sent Urias to David.
7 A když přišel Uriáš k němu, otázal se ho, jak se má Joáb, a jak se má lid, a kterak se vede v vojště?
And Urias arrived and went in to him, and David asked him how Joab was, and how the people were, and how the war went on.
8 Řekl také David Uriášovi: Jdiž do domu svého, a umyj sobě nohy. I vyšel Uriáš z domu králova, a poslán za ním dar královský.
And David said to Urias, Go to your house, and wash your feet: and Urias departed from the house of the king, and a portion [of meat] from the king followed him.
9 Ale Uriáš spal u vrat domu královského se všemi služebníky pána svého, a nešel do domu svého.
And Urias slept at the door of the king with the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
10 Což když oznámili Davidovi, řkouce: Nešel Uriáš do domu svého, řekl David Uriášovi: Však jsi z cesty přišel. Pročež jsi nešel do domu svého?
And they brought David word, saying, Urias has not gone down to his house. And David said to Urias, Are you not come from a journey? why have you not gone down to your house?
11 Odpověděl Uriáš Davidovi: Truhla Boží a Izrael i Juda zůstávají v staních, a pán můj Joáb i služebníci pána mého na poli zůstávají, já pak mám vjíti do domu svého, abych jedl a pil, a spal s manželkou svou? Jakož jsi živ ty, a jako jest živa duše tvá, žeť toho neučiním.
And Urias said to David, The ark, and Israel, and Juda dwell in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; and shall I go into my house to eat and drink, and lie with my wife? how [should I do this? as] your soul lives, I will not do this thing.
12 Tedy řekl David Uriášovi: Pobuď zde ještě dnes, a zítra propustím tebe. I zůstal Uriáš v Jeruzalémě toho dne i nazejtří.
And David said to Urias, Remain here today also, and to-morrow I will let you go. So Urias remained in Jerusalem that day and the day following.
13 V tom pozval ho David, aby jedl před ním a pil, a opojil ho. A však on šel večer spáti na ložce své s služebníky pána svého, a nešel do domu svého.
And David called him, and he ate before him and drank, and he made him drunk: and he went out in the evening to lie upon his bed with the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
14 A když bylo ráno, napsal David list Joábovi, kterýž poslal po Uriášovi.
And the morning came, and David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Urias.
15 Psal pak v listu těmi slovy: Postavte Uriáše proti bojovníkům nejsilnějším; mezi tím odstupte nazpět od něho, aby raněn jsa, umřel.
And he wrote in the letter, saying, Station Urias in front of the severe [part] of the fight, and retreat from behind him, so shall he be wounded and die.
16 I stalo se, když oblehl Joáb město, že postavil Uriáše proti místu, kdež věděl, že jsou nejsilnější muži.
And it came to pass while Joab was watching against the city, that he set Urias in a place where he knew that valiant men were.
17 A vyskočivše muži z města, bojovali proti Joábovi. I padli někteří z lidu, z služebníků Davidových, také i Uriáš Hetejský zabit.
And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and some of the people of the servants of David fell, and Urias the Chettite died also.
18 Tedy poslav Joáb, oznámil Davidovi všecko, což se zběhlo v bitvě.
And Joab sent, and reported to David all the events of the war, so as to tell them to the king.
19 A přikázal tomu poslu, řka: Když vypravíš králi všecky věci, které se zběhly v bitvě,
And he charged the messenger, saying, When you have finished reporting all the events of the war to the king,
20 Při čemž jestliže se popudí prchlivost královská a řekne-liť: Proč jste přistoupili k městu, bojujíce? Zdaliž jste nevěděli, že házejí se zdi?
then it shall come to pass if the anger of the king shall arise, and he shall say to you, Why did you draw near to the city to fight? knew you not that they would shoot from off the wall?
21 Kdo zabil Abimelecha syna Jerobosetova? Zdali ne žena, svrhši na něj kus žernovu se zdi, tak že umřel v Tébes? Proč jste přistupovali ke zdi? tedy díš: Také služebník tvůj Uriáš Hetejský umřel.
Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerobaal son of Ner? did not a woman cast a piece of a millstone upon him from above the wall, and he died in Thamasi? why did you draw near to the wall? then you shall say, Your servant Urias the Chettite is also dead.
22 A tak šel posel, a přišed, oznámil Davidovi všecko to, pročež ho byl poslal Joáb.
And the messenger of Joab went to the king to Jerusalem, and he came and reported to David all that Joab told him, all the affairs of the war. And David was very angry with Joab, and said to the messenger, Why did you draw near to the wall to fight? knew you not that you would be wounded from off the wall? Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerobaal? did not a woman cast upon him a piece of millstone from the wall, and he died in Thamasi? why did you draw near to the wall?
23 A řekl posel ten Davidovi: Zmocnili se nás muži ti, a vytrhli proti nám do pole, a honili jsem je až k bráně.
And the messenger said to David, The men prevailed against us, and they came out against us into the field, and we came upon them even to the door of the gate.
24 V tom stříleli střelci na služebníky tvé se zdi, a zbiti jsou někteří z služebníků králových, také i služebník tvůj Uriáš Hetejský zabit.
And the archers shot at your servants from off the wall, and some of the king's servants died, and your servant Urias the Chettite is dead also.
25 Tedy řekl David poslu: Tak pověz Joábovi: Nic tě to nerozpakuj, že tak i jinak sehlcuje meč. Ztuž boj svůj proti městu a zkaz je, a potěš drábů.
And David said to the messenger, Thus shall you say to Joab, Let not the matter be grievous in your eyes, for the sword devours one way at one time and another way at another: strengthen your array against the city, and destroy it, and strengthen him.
26 Uslyševši pak manželka Uriášova, že umřel Uriáš muž její, plakala manžela svého.
And the wife of Urias heard that Urias her husband was dead, and she mourned for her husband.
27 A když pominul pláč, poslav David, vzal ji do domu svého, a měl ji za manželku; i porodila mu syna. Ale nelíbilo se to Hospodinu, co učinil David.
And the time of mourning expired, and David sent and took her into his house, and she became his wife, and bore him a son: but the thing which David did was evil in the eyes of the Lord.
