< 1 Samuelova 18 >

1 I stalo se, že když přestal mluviti k Saulovi, duše Jonatova spojila se s duší Davidovou, tak že ho zamiloval Jonata jako sebe samého.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
2 A tak Saul vzal jej k sobě toho dne, a nedopustil mu navrátiti se do domu otce jeho.
And Saul took him that day, and would no more let him go home to his father's house.
3 I učinil Jonata s Davidem smlouvu, proto že ho miloval jako duši svou.
Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
4 A složiv Jonata s sebe plášť, kterýmž byl odín, dal jej Davidovi, i roucho své, až do meče svého, a až do lučiště svého, i do pasu svého.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his apparel, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his belt.
5 Vycházel pak David, k čemuž ho koli posílal Saul, opatrně sobě počínaje. I ustanovil ho Saul nad vojáky, a líbil se všemu lidu, též i služebníkům Saulovým.
And David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
6 Stalo se pak, když se oni domů brali, a David též se navracoval od zabití Filistinského, že vyšly ženy z každého města Izraelského, zpívajíce a plésajíce, vstříc Saulovi králi s bubny, s veselím a s husličkami.
And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with timbrels, with joy, and with instruments of music.
7 A prozpěvovaly jedny po druhých ženy ty, hrajíce, a řekly: Porazilť jest Saul svůj tisíc, ale David svých deset tisíců.
And the women sang one to another as they played, and said, Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
8 I rozhněval se Saul náramně, nebo nelíbila se mu ta řeč. Pročež řekl: Dali Davidovi deset tisíc, a mně dali toliko tisíc. Co mu ještě přes to přivlastní, leč království?
And Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him, and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands, and what can he have more but the kingdom?
9 Protož Saul zlobivě hleděl na Davida od toho dne i vždycky.
And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
10 Stalo se pak druhého dne, že duch Boží zlý napadl Saule, a prorokoval u prostřed domu svého, a David hral rukou svou jako i jindy vždycky. Saul pak měl kopí v ruce své.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that an evil spirit from God came mightily upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house. And David played with his hand, as he did day by day, and Saul had his spear in his hand.
11 I vyhodil Saul kopí, řka: Prohodím Davida až do stěny. Ale David uhnul se jemu po dvakrát.
And Saul cast the spear, for he said, I will smite David even to the wall. And David turned away from his presence twice.
12 A bál se Saul Davida, proto že Hospodin byl s ním, a od Saule odstoupil.
And Saul was afraid of David because Jehovah was with him, and was departed from Saul.
13 Protož vybyl ho Saul od sebe, a učinil jej sobě hejtmanem nad tisíci; kterýžto vycházel i vcházel před lidem.
Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand, and he went out and came in before the people.
14 David pak ve všech cestách svých opatrně sobě počínal, nebo Hospodin byl s ním.
And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways, and Jehovah was with him.
15 A když to viděl Saul, že sobě velmi opatrně počíná, bál se ho.
And when Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he was afraid of him.
16 Ale všecken Izrael i Juda miloval Davida, nebo vycházel i vcházel před nimi.
But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.
17 Tedy řekl Saul Davidovi: Aj, dceru svou starší Merob dámť za manželku, toliko mi buď muž silný, a veď boje Hospodinovy. (Saul pak myslil: Nechť neschází od mé ruky, ale od ruky Filistinských.)
And Saul said to David, Behold, my elder daughter Merab, I will give her to thee for a wife. Only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles. For Saul said, Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hand of the Philistines be upon him.
18 I řekl David Saulovi: Kdo jsem já, a jakýž jest rod můj a čeled otce mého v Izraeli, abych byl zetěm královým?
And David said to Saul, Who am I, and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
19 I stalo se, že když již Merob dcera Saulova měla dána býti Davidovi, dána jest Adrielovi Molatitskému za manželku.
But it came to pass at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite to wife.
20 Milovala pak Míkol dcera Saulova Davida; což když oznámili Saulovi, líbilo se to jemu.
And Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David, and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
21 (Nebo řekl Saul: Dámť mu ji, aby mu byla osídlem, a aby proti němu byla ruka Filistinských.) A tak řekl Saul Davidovi: Po této druhé budeš mi již zetěm.
And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him. Therefore Saul said to David, Thou shall this day be my son-in-law a second time.
22 I rozkázal Saul služebníkům svým: Mluvte k Davidovi tajně, řkouce: Aj, libuje tě sobě král, a všickni služebníci jeho laskavi jsou na tebe; nyní tedy budiž zetěm královým.
And Saul commanded his servants, saying, Converse with David secretly, and say, Behold, the king has delight in thee, and all his servants love thee. Now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
23 A když mluvili služebníci Saulovi v uši Davidovy slova ta, odpověděl David: Zdaliž se vám malá věc zdá, býti zetěm královým? A já jsem člověk chudý a opovržený.
And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Does it seem to you a light thing to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
24 Tedy služebníci Saulovi oznámili jemu, řkouce: Taková slova mluvil David.
And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner David spoke.
25 I řekl Saul: Takto rcete Davidovi: Není žádostiv král věna, toliko sto obřízek Filistinských, aby byla pomsta nad nepřátely královskými. (Saul pak to obmýšlel, aby David upadl v ruku Filistinských.)
And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David, The king does not desire any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
26 Protož oznámili služebníci jeho Davidovi slova ta, a líbilo se to Davidovi, aby byl zetěm královým. Ještě se pak nebyli vyplnili dnové ti,
And when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. And the days were not expired.
27 Když vstav David, odšel, on i muži jeho, a zbil z Filistinských dvě stě mužů, jejichž obřízky přinesl David, a z úplna je dali králi, aby byl zetěm královým. I dal jemu Saul Míkol dceru svou za manželku.
And David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines two hundred men. And David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter to wife.
28 A vida Saul, nýbrž zkušené maje, že jest Hospodin s Davidem, a že Míkol dcera jeho miluje ho,
And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David, and Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him.
29 Ještě tím více Saul obával se Davida. I byl Saul nepřítelem Davidovým po všecky dny.
And Saul was yet the more afraid of David, and Saul was David's enemy continually.
30 Vtrhovali pak do země knížata Filistinská; i bývalo, že kdyžkoli vycházeli, opatrněji sobě počínal David proti nim nade všecky služebníky Saulovy, pročež i jméno jeho bylo velmi slavné.
Then the rulers of the Philistines went forth, and it came to pass, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his name was very precious.
