< 2 Samuelova 4 >
1 A když uslyšel Izbozet syn Saulův, že umřel Abner v Hebronu, zemdlely ruce jeho, a všecken lid Izrael byl předěšen.
Now when Ishbaal, Saul's son, heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel was troubled.
2 Měl pak syn Saulův dva muže hejtmany nad dráby, jméno jednoho Baana, a jméno druhého Rechab, synové Remmona Berotského z synů Beniamin; nebo i Berot počítá se v Beniaminovi.
And Ishbaal, Saul's son, had two men who were captains of bands; the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the people of Benjamin (for Beeroth was regarded as belonging to the people of Benjamin;
3 Utekli pak byli Berotští do Gittaim, a byli tam pohostinu až do toho dne.
and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and have lived as foreigners there until this day).
4 Měl také byl Jonata syn Saulův syna chromého na nohy, (nebo když byl v pěti letech a přišla pověst o Saulovi a Jonatovi z Jezreel, vzavši ho chůva jeho, utíkala, a když pospíchala utíkajici, on upadl a okulhavěl), jehož jméno Mifibozet.
Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were crippled. He was five years old when the news came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezreel, and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened as she was hurrying to get away that he fell and was injured. And his name was Mippibaal.
5 A odšedše synové Remmona Berotského, Rechab a Baana, vešli o poledni do domu Izbozetova. On pak spal na lůžku poledním.
The sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbaal, as he took his rest at noon.
6 A aj, když vešli až do domu, jako by bráti měli obilé, ranili ho v páté žebro, Rechab a Baana bratr jeho, a utekli.
And look, the doorkeeper of the house had been sifting wheat, and she became drowsy and fell asleep. And Rechab and his brother Baanah slipped by.
7 Nebo když byli vešli do domu, a on spal na lůžku svém v pokojíku svém, kdež léhal, probodli jej a zabili, a sťavše hlavu jeho, vzali ji, a šli cestou po pustinách celou tu noc.
And they went into the house where he was lying on his bed in his bedchamber. And they struck him and killed him, and beheaded him. And they took his head and went by the way of the Arabah all night.
8 I přinesli hlavu Izbozetovu k Davidovi do Hebronu a řekli králi: Aj, hlava Izbozeta syna Saulova, nepřítele tvého, kterýž hledal bezživotí tvého. Hle, pomstil dnes Hospodin pána mého krále nad Saulem i semenem jeho.
They brought the head of Ishbaal to David at Hebron, and said to the king, "Look, the head of Ishbaal, the son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life. Jehovah has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants."
9 Tedy odpovídaje David Rechabovi a Baanovi bratru jeho, synům Remmona Berotského, řekl jim: Živť jest Hospodin, kterýž vysvobodil duši mou ze všech úzkostí,
David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, "As Jehovah lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
10 Kdyžť jsem toho, kterýž mi oznámil, řka: Aj, Saul zahynul, (ješto se jemu zdálo, že veselé noviny zvěstuje), vzal a zabil jsem ho v Sicelechu, jemuž se zdálo, že ho budu darovati za poselství:
when someone told me, 'Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought good news, I took hold of him, and killed him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news.
11 Èím pak více lidi bezbožné, kteříž zamordovali muže spravedlivého v domě jeho na ložci jeho? A nyní, zdaliž nebudu vyhledávati krve jeho z ruky vaší, a nevyhladím vás z země?
How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed, shall I not now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?"
12 I rozkázal David služebníkům, aby je zbili. I zutínali jim ruce i nohy jejich, a pověsili u rybníka při Hebronu. Hlavu pak Izbozetovu vzavše, pochovali v hrobě Abnerově v Hebronu.
David commanded his young men, and they killed them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbaal, and buried it in the grave of Abner son of Ner.
