Første Krønikebog 11
1 Da samledes hele Israel til David i Hebron og sagde: Se, vi ere dine Ben og dit Kød.
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
2 Ogsaa tilforn, endog der Saul var Konge, har du ført Israel ud og ind; saa har og Herren din Gud sagt til dig: Du skal føde mit Folk Israel, og du skal være en Fyrste over mit Folk Israel.
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Yahweh your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
3 Og alle Israels Ældste kom til Kongen i Hebron, og David gjorde en Pagt med dem i Hebron for Herrens Ansigt, og de salvede David til Konge over Israel efter Herrens Ord ved Samuel.
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh. They anointed David king over Israel, according to Yahweh’s word by Samuel.
4 Og David og hele Israel drog hen til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; og Jebusiterne vare der Landets Indbyggere.
David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
5 Og Indbyggerne i Jebus sagde til David: Du skal ikke komme herind; men David indtog Zions Befæstning, det er Davids Stad.
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
6 Og David sagde: Hvo som helst der først slaar Jebusiterne, skal være en Øverste og Høvedsmand; saa steg Joab, Zerujas Søn, først op og blev Øverste.
David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
7 Og David boede i Befæstningen, derfor kaldte man den Davids Stad.
David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
8 Og han byggede Staden deromkring, fra Milla og rundt omkring; og Joab udbedrede det øvrige af Byen.
He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 Og David gik stedse frem og blev stor, og den Herre Zebaoth var med ham.
David grew greater and greater, for Yahweh of Armies was with him.
10 Og disse ere de Øverste iblandt de vældige, som David havde, som holdt mandeligen med ham i hans Regering tillige med hele Israel, saa at de gjorde ham til Konge efter Herrens Ord over Israel.
Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to Yahweh’s word concerning Israel.
11 Og dette er Tallet paa de vældige, som David havde: Jasobeam, Hakmonis Søn, en Øverste for Høvedsmændene, han svingede sit Spyd imod tre Hundrede, som bleve ihjelslagne paa en Gang.
This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
12 Og efter ham var Eleasar, Dodos Søn, Ahohiten, han var iblandt de tre vældige.
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
13 Han var med David i Pasdammin, der Filisterne vare samlede der til Striden, og der var et Stykke Ager fuldt med Byg, og Folket flyede for Filisternes Ansigt.
He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
14 Og de stillede sig midt paa det Stykke og reddede det og sloge Filisterne, og Herren gjorde en stor Frelse.
They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Yahweh saved them by a great victory.
15 Og tre af de tredive ypperste droge ned til David ved Klippen til Hulen ved Adullam; men Filisternes Lejr havde lejret sig i Refaims Dal.
Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 Og David var da i Befæstningen, og Filisternes Besætning var da i Bethlehem.
David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
17 Og David fik Lyst og sagde: Hvo vil give mig Vand at drikke af den Brønd i Bethlehem, som er ved Porten?
David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
18 Da brøde de tre ind i Filisternes Lejr og droge Vand af den Brønd i Bethlehem, som var ved Porten, og toge det op og bragte det til David; men David vilde ikke drikke det, men udøste det for Herren.
The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to Yahweh,
19 Og han sagde: Min Gud lade det være langt fra mig at gøre dette; skulde jeg drikke disse Mænds Blod, da de have sat deres Liv i Fare? thi med Livsfare have de bragt det hid; og han vilde ikke drikke det; dette gjorde de tre vældige.
and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
20 Og Abisaj, Joabs Broder, var den ypperste iblandt de tre, og han svingede sit Spyd imod tre Hundrede, som bleve ihjelslagne; og han var navnkundig iblandt de tre.
Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
21 Af de tre var han herligere end de to, derfor blev han deres Høvedsmand; men han naaede ikke de første tre.
Of the three, he was more honorable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
22 Benaja, Jojadas Søn, en stridbar Mands Søn, mægtig i Gerninger, fra Kabzeel, han slog to Løvehelte af Moabiterne, og han gik ned og slog en Løve midt i en Brønd en Dag, da der var Sne.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
23 Og han slog en ægyptisk Mand, en Mand, fem Alen høj, og Ægypteren havde et Spyd i Haanden som en Væverstang; men han gik ned imod ham med en Kæp, og han rev Spydet af Ægypterens Haand og slog ham ihjel med hans eget Spyd.
He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
24 Dette gjorde Benaja, Jojadas Søn, og han var navnkundig iblandt de tre vældige.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name among the three mighty men.
25 Se, han var mere æret end de tredive, dog naaede han ikke de tre; og David satte ham i sit Raad.
Behold, he was more honorable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
