< 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 unto Saul, that, the soul of Jonathan, was knit with, the soul of David, so that 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 suffered him not to return unto the house of his father.
3 I učinil Jonata s Davidem smlouvu, proto že ho miloval jako duši svou.
And Jonathan and David solemnised 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 which was upon him, and gave it to David, —and his equipments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
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 forth—whithersoever Saul sent him, he behaved himself prudently, so Saul set him over the men of war, —and he became a favourite in the eyes of all the people, yea even in the eyes of the servants of Saul.
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.
But so it was, when they came in on the return of David from the smiting of the Philistine, that the women went forth out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet Saul the king, —with timbrels, with rejoicing, and with instruments of three strings.
7 A prozpěvovaly jedny po druhých ženy ty, hrajíce, a řekly: Porazilť jest Saul svůj tisíc, ale David svých deset tisíců.
And the women that made merry responded to each other in song, and said, —Saul, hath smitten, his thousands, but, David, his, tens of 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?
Then was Saul exceeding angry, and this saying was offensive in his eyes, and he said, —They have ascribed, to David, ten thousands, but, to me, have they ascribed thousands, —What, more, then, can he have but, the kingdom?
9 Protož Saul zlobivě hleděl na Davida od toho dne i vždycky.
And Saul was eyeing David from that day 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, when it came to pass, on the morrow, that a superhuman spirit of sadness came suddenly upon Saul, and he was moved to raving in the midst of the house, —and, David, began playing with his hand, as he had done day by day, that a spear being in Saul’s hand,
11 I vyhodil Saul kopí, řka: Prohodím Davida až do stěny. Ale David uhnul se jemu po dvakrát.
Saul hurled the spear, and said to himself—I will smite David, even to the wall! But David moved round from before him, twice.
12 A bál se Saul Davida, proto že Hospodin byl s ním, a od Saule odstoupil.
And Saul feared because of David, —for Yahweh was with him, whereas, from Saul, he had departed.
13 Protož vybyl ho Saul od sebe, a učinil jej sobě hejtmanem nad tisíci; kterýžto vycházel i vcházel před lidem.
So Saul removed him from him, and appointed him to be for him the captain of 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 it came to pass that David, in all his ways, acted prudently, —and, Yahweh, was with him.
15 A když to viděl Saul, že sobě velmi opatrně počíná, bál se ho.
And, when Saul saw that, he, was acting very prudently, he was afraid of him.
16 Ale všecken Izrael i Juda miloval Davida, nebo vycházel i vcházel před nimi.
But, all Israel and Judah, were in love with David, —for he was going out and coming 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.)
So then Saul said unto David—Lo! my elder daughter Merab, her, will I give thee to wife, only, approve thyself unto me as a son of valour and fight the battles of Yahweh. Saul, however, had said to himself—Let not, my own 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 unto Saul—Who am, I, or who are my kinsfolk, the family of my father, in Israel, —that I should become 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, within the time for giving Merab daughter of Saul 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.
Then did Michal, Saul’s daughter, love David, —and it was told Saul, and the thing was right in his eyes.
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 to himself—I will give her unto him, that she may prove to him a snare, and that, the hand of the Philistines, may be upon him. So then Saul said unto David, A second time, mayest thou become my son-in-law to-day.
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—Speak ye unto David quietly saying, Lo! the king delighteth in thee, and, all his servants, love thee, —now, therefore, become thou son-in-law to the king.
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 the servants of Saul spake, in the ears of David, these words. And David said—Seemeth it a light thing, in your eyes, to become son-in-law to the king, seeing that, I, am a poor man and lightly esteemed?
24 Tedy služebníci Saulovi oznámili jemu, řkouce: Taková slova mluvil David.
So the servants of Saul told him, saying, —According to these words, spake David,
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.)
Then said Saul—Thus, shall ye say unto David—The king hath no delight in purchase-price, but rather in a hundred foreskins of Philistines, by avenging himself on the enemies of the king. But, Saul, thought to let 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,
So, when his servants told David these words, the thing was right in the eyes of David, to become son-in-law unto the king, —and the days had 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.
Wherefore David arose, and went—he and his men, and smote among the Philistines two hundred men, and David brought in their foreskins, and gave them in full tale unto the king, that he might become son-in-law unto the king, 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, Yahweh, was with David, and that, all Israel, loved him.
29 Ještě tím více Saul obával se Davida. I byl Saul nepřítelem Davidovým po všecky dny.
So then Saul went on to fear because of David, yet more, —and it came to pass that Saul was hostile to David, all the days.
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.
And, when the princes of the Philistines came forth, so it was, that, as often as they came forth, David was more circumspect than any of the servants of Saul, so that his name was, precious exceedingly.
