< 2 Samuelova 4 >
1 A když uslyšel Izbozet syn Saulův, že umřel Abner v Hebronu, zemdlely ruce jeho, a všecken lid Izrael byl předěšen.
When Saul’s son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were 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.
Saul’s son had two men who were captains of raiding bands. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin (for Beeroth also is considered a part 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 today).
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 who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news came about Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel; and his nurse picked him up and fled. As she hurried to flee, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
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 out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth 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.
They came there into the middle of the house as though they would have fetched wheat, and they struck him in the body; and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
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.
Now when they came into the house as he lay on his bed in his bedroom, they struck him, killed him, beheaded him, and 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 Ishbosheth to David to Hebron, and said to the king, “Behold, the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life! The LORD has avenged my lord the king today of Saul and of his offspring.”
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 the LORD 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, ‘Behold, Saul is dead,’ thinking that he brought good news, I seized 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, should I not now require his blood from your hand, and rid the earth of you?”
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, cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in Abner’s grave in Hebron.
