2 Samuelova 12
1 Protož poslal Hospodin Nátana k Davidovi. Kterýž přišed k němu, řekl jemu: Dva muži byli v městě jednom, jeden bohatý a druhý chudý.
Yahweh [told the prophet Nathan what David had done, and he] sent Nathan to tell [this story to] David: “[I heard about] two men [who] were living in a certain city. One was rich and the other was poor.
2 Bohatý měl ovec i volů velmi mnoho,
The rich man owned a lot of cattle and sheep.
3 Chudý pak neměl nic, kromě jednu ovečku malou, kterouž byl koupil a choval, až i odrostla při něm a při dětech jeho tolikéž. Chléb jeho jedla a z číše jeho pila, a v lůnu jeho spávala, a tak byla mu jako za dceru.
But the poor man had only one little female lamb, which he had bought. He raised the lamb, and it grew up with his children. He would give the lamb some of his own food and let it drink from his cup. He let the lamb sleep in his arms. The lamb was like a daughter to him.
4 Když pak přišel pocestný k tomu bohatému člověku, líto mu bylo vzíti z ovcí aneb z volů svých, což by připravil pocestnému, kterýž k němu přišel, ale vzav ovečku toho chudého člověka, připravil ji muži, kterýž byl přišel k němu.
[One day] a visitor came to [visit] the rich man. The rich man did not want to take one of his own animals [and kill it] to prepare a meal for the visitor. So instead, he stole the poor man’s lamb [and killed it] and prepared a meal for his visitor.”
5 Tedy rozhněval se David na muže toho náramně a řekl Nátanovi: Živť jest Hospodin, že hoden jest smrti muž, kterýž to učinil.
[When] David [heard that, he] was very angry about [what] the rich man [had done]. He said to Nathan, “I solemnly declare that the man who did that should be executed!
6 Ovečku také tu zaplatí čtvernásobně, proto že učinil věc tu, a nelitoval ho.
But before he is executed, he should pay back to the poor man four lambs for doing this, and for not having pity [on the poor man].”
7 I řekl Nátan Davidovi: Ty jsi ten muž! Takto praví Hospodin Bůh Izraelský: Já jsem tě pomazal, abys králem byl nad Izraelem, a vytrhl jsem tebe z ruky Saulovy.
Nathan said to David, “You are the man [I have been talking about]! And this is what Yahweh, the God we Israelis [worship], says to you: ‘I appointed you to be king of Israel, after having rescued you from Saul.
8 A dal jsem tobě dům pána tvého, i ženy pána tvého v lůno tvé, dalť jsem také dům Izraelský a Judský, a bylo-liť by to málo, byl bych přidal mnohem více.
I gave you his palace and his wives. I caused you to become the king to rule Israel and Judah. If [you had told me that] you were not content with what I gave you, I would have given you twice as much!
9 Pročež jsi sobě zlehčil slovo Hospodinovo, čině to, což se nelíbí jemu? Uriáše Hetejského zabil jsi mečem, a manželku jeho pojals sobě za ženu, samého pak zamordoval jsi mečem Ammonitských.
So why have you despised my commandment [about not committing adultery]? You have done what I consider to be very evil! You have arranged for Uriah to be killed in a battle by the Ammon people-group’s soldiers, and you have taken his wife to be your wife!
10 Protož nyní neodejdeť meč z domu tvého až na věky, proto že jsi pohrdl mnou, a vzal jsi manželku Uriáše Hetejského, aby byla žena tvá.
You have despised me, and have taken Uriah’s wife to be your wife. So for many generations some of your descendants will die violently. [MTY, PRS]
11 Takto praví Hospodin: Aj, já vzbudím proti tobě zlé z domu tvého, a vezma ženy tvé před očima tvýma, dám je bližnímu tvému, kterýž spáti bude s ženami tvými, an na to každý hledí.
I solemnly declare to you that I will cause someone from your own family to bring trouble to you. I will take your wives and give them to him, and he will have sexual relations with them in the daytime, where everyone can see it, and you will know all about it.
12 A ačkoli ty učinil jsi to tajně, já však učiním to zjevně přede vším Izraelem a všechněm známě.
What you did, you did secretly, but what I will cause to happen, everyone in Israel will be able to see it [or know about it]. [IDM]’”
13 Tedy řekl David Nátanovi: Zhřešilť jsem Hospodinu. Zase řekl Nátan Davidovi: Tentýž Hospodin přenesl hřích tvůj, neumřeš.
David replied, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan said to David, “Yahweh has forgiven you for your sin: You will not die [because of this sin].
14 Ale však, poněvadž jsi tou věcí dal příčinu nepřátelům Hospodinovým, aby se rouhali, protož ten syn, kterýž se narodil tobě, jistotně umře.
But, you have shown contempt for Yahweh by doing this. So, your baby will die.”
15 Potom odšel Nátan do domu svého. V tom Hospodin ranil dítě, kteréž byla porodila manželka Uriášova Davidovi, tak že pochybili o něm.
Then Nathan went home. Then Yahweh caused the baby t o become very sick, the one that Uriah’s wife had given birth to.
16 I modlil se David Bohu za to dítě a postil se, a všed, ležel přes noc na zemi.
So David prayed to God that the child [would not die]. He (fasted/abstained from food), and he went into [the room where he slept] and lay all night on the floor.
17 A ačkoli starší domu jeho přišli k němu, aby ho zdvihli z země, on však nechtěl, aniž s nimi co jedl.
[The next morning] his advisors stood around him and urged him to get up. But he would not get up, and he would not eat any food with them.
18 Stalo se pak dne sedmého, že umřelo dítě. I nesměli služebníci Davidovi toho oznámiti jemu, že by umřelo dítě; nebo pravili: Aj, když ještě bylo dítě živo, mluvili jsme jemu, a nechtěl slyšeti hlasu našeho, což pak když jemu díme: Umřelo dítě. Ovšem to tíže ponese.
One week later the baby died. David’s servants were afraid to tell that to David. They said [to each other], “Hey, while the baby was still alive, we talked to him, but he would not answer us. Now, if we tell him that the baby is dead [RHQ], he may do something to harm himself!”
19 Ale vida David, an služebníci jeho k sobě šepcí, srozuměl, že by umřelo dítě. I řekl David služebníkům svým: Co již umřelo dítě? Kteříž řekli: Umřelo.
But when David saw that his servants were whispering something to each other, he realized that the baby must be dead. So he asked them, “Is the baby dead?” They replied, “Yes, he is dead.”
20 Tedy vstav David s země, umyl se a pomazal se, a změnil roucho své, a všed do domu Hospodinova, pomodlil se. Potom vrátiv se do domu svého, rozkázal sobě dáti jísti a jedl.
Then David got up from the floor. He bathed himself, put lotions on his body, and put on other clothes, Then he went into Yahweh’s Sacred Tent and worshiped Yahweh. Then he went home. He asked his servants for some food. They gave him some, and he ate it.
21 Služebníci pak jeho řekli jemu: Co jsi to učinil? Pro dítě, když živo bylo, postils se a plakal, ale jakž dítě umřelo, vstal jsi a přijal jsi pokrm.
Then his servants said to him, “We do not understand [RHQ] why you have done this! While the baby was still alive, you cried for him and refused to eat anything. But now that the baby has died, [you are not crying any more!] You got up and ate some food!”
22 Kterýžto řekl: Pokudž ještě dítě živo bylo, postil jsem se a plakal, nebo jsem řekl: Kdo ví? Můžeť se smilovati nade mnou Hospodin, aby živo bylo dítě.
David replied, “While the baby was still alive, I fasted and cried. I thought, ‘Who knows? Yahweh may be merciful to me and not allow the baby to die’.
23 Nyní pak, poněvadž umřelo, proč se mám postiti? Zdaliž budu moci zase je vzkřísiti? Jáť půjdu k němu, ale ono se nenavrátí ke mně.
But now the baby is dead. So (there is no reason for me to (fast/abstain from eating food) any more./why should I (fast/abstain from eating food) any more?) [RHQ] (Can I bring him back to me?/I certainly cannot bring him back to me!) [RHQ] [Some day] I will go to where he is, but he will not return to me.”
24 Potom David potěšiv Betsabé manželky své, všel k ní a spal s ní. I porodila syna, a nazval jméno jeho Šalamoun, a Hospodin miloval jej.
Then David comforted his wife, Bathsheba. Then he (slept/had sexual relations) with her, and she [became pregnant again and] gave birth to another son. David named that son Solomon. Yahweh loved that little boy.
25 Protož poslal byl Nátana proroka, a nazval jméno jeho Jedidiah pro Hospodina.
He told the prophet Nathan to tell David to name the baby boy Jedediah [which means ‘loved by Yahweh’, ] because Yahweh loved him.
26 Bojoval pak Joáb proti Rabba Ammonitských, a vzal město královské.
(Meanwhile/While all that was happening), Joab’s [soldiers] attacked Rabbah, [the capital city] of the Ammon people-group; and they captured the king’s fortress.
27 A poslav posly k Davidovi, řekl: Dobýval jsem Rabba a vzal jsem město vod.
Then Joab sent messengers to David, to tell him this: “My troops are attacking Rabbah, and we have captured the city’s water supply.
28 Protož nyní sebera ostatek lidu, polož se proti městu a vezmi je, abych já nevzal města toho, a bylo by mně připisováno vítězství nad ním.
Now gather your troops and come and surround the city and capture it. If you do not do that, my troops will capture the city and it will then be named ‘the City of Joab’.”
29 Tedy sebrav David všecken lid, vytáhl proti Rabba, kteréhož dobýval a vzal je.
So David gathered all his troops. They went [with David] to Rabbah and attacked it and captured it.
30 A sňal korunu krále jejich s hlavy jeho, kteráž vážila centnéř zlata, a bylo v ní kamení drahé, a vstavena byla na hlavu Davidovu. Vyvezl též kořisti města velmi veliké.
Then David took the crown from the head of the king of Rabbah (OR, from the head of [Milcom] the god of Rabbah) and put it on his own head. It [was very heavy; it] weighed (75 pounds/34 kg.), and it had many very valuable stones fastened to it. His soldiers also took many other valuable things from the city.
31 Lid pak, kterýž v něm byl, vyvedl a dal jej pod pily a pod brány železné a pod sekery železné, a vehnal je do peci cihelné. A tak činil všechněm městům Ammonitským. Potom navrátil se David se vším lidem do Jeruzaléma.
Then they brought the people of Rabbah out of the city and forced them to [work for them] using saws and iron picks and axes. David’s troops also forced them to make bricks. David’s soldiers did this in all the towns of the Ammon people-group. Then David and all of his army returned to Jerusalem.
