1 Samuel 11
1 Men Ammoniteren Nahas drog op og lejrede sig mod Jabes i Gilead; og alle Mænd i Jabes sagde til Nahas: Gør en Pagt med os, saa ville vi tjene dig.
And he went up Nahash the Ammonite and he encamped on Jabesh Gilead and they said all [the] men of Jabesh to Nahash make to us a covenant and we will serve you.
2 Og Ammoniteren Nahas sagde til dem: Paa det Vilkaar vil jeg gøre Pagt med eder, at jeg maa stikke det højre Øje ud paa eder alle, og jeg vil lægge den Skændsel paa al Israel.
And he said to them Nahash the Ammonite by this I will make to you by gouging out of you every eye of [the] right [side] and I will make it a reproach on all Israel.
3 Da sagde de Ældste af Jabes til ham: Lader os være i Fred i syv Dage, at vi kunne sende Bud til alt Israels Landemærke; og dersom der er ingen, som frelser os, da ville vi gaa ud til dig.
And they said to him [the] elders of Jabesh refrain to us seven days so let us send messengers in all [the] territory of Israel and if there not [is one who] delivers us and we will come out to you.
4 Saa kom Budene til Sauls Gibea og talede Ordene for Folkets Øren; da opløftede alt Folket deres Røst, og de græd.
And they came the messengers Gibeah of Saul and they spoke the words in [the] ears of the people and they lifted up all the people voice their and they wept.
5 Og se, Saul kom bagefter Øksnene fra Marken, og Saul sagde: Hvad skader Folket, at de græde? Da fortalte de ham Mændenes Ord af Jabes.
And there! Saul [was] coming after the cattle from the field and he said Saul what? [is] to the people that they are weeping and they recounted to him [the] words of [the] men of Jabesh.
6 Da kom Guds Aand heftig over Saul, der han hørte disse Ord, og hans Vrede optændtes saare.
And it rushed [the] spirit of God on Saul (just as heard he *Q(K)*) the words these and it burned anger his exceedingly.
7 Og han tog et Par Øksne og huggede dem i Stykker og udsendte dem til al Israels Landemærke med Bud og lod sige: Hvo som ikke drager ud efter Saul og efter Samuel, med hans Øksne skal der gøres saaledes; da faldt Herrens Frygt paa Folket, at de droge ud som een Mand.
And he took a pair of ox[en] and he cut in pieces it and he sent [them] in all [the] territory of Israel by [the] hand of the messengers - saying [the one] who not he [is] coming out after Saul and after Samuel thus it will be done to ox[en] his and it fell [the] dread of Yahweh on the people and they came out like a man one.
8 Og han talte dem i Besek, og Israels Børn vare tre Hundrede Tusinde, og Judas Mænd tredive Tusinde.
And he mustered them at Bezek and they were [the] people of Israel three hundred thousand and [the] man of Judah [was] thirty thousand.
9 Da sagde de til Budene, som vare komne: Saa skulle I sige til Mændene i Jabes i Gilead: I Morgen skal eder vederfares Frelse, naar Solen bliver hed. Der Budene kom og kundgjorde det for Mændene i Jabes, da bleve de glade.
And they said to the messengers who had come thus you will say! to [the] man of Jabesh Gilead tomorrow it will belong to you deliverance (like [the] heat of *Q(K)*) the sun and they went the messengers and they told to [the] men of Jabesh and they were glad.
10 Og Mændene i Jabes sagde: I Morgen ville vi gaa ud til eder, saa maa I gøre os efter alt det, som er godt for eders Øjne.
And they said [the] men of Jabesh tomorrow will we go out to you and you will do to us according to all the good in view your.
11 Og det skete den næste Dag, da satte Saul Folket i tre Hobe, og de kom midt i Lejren i Morgenvagten, og de sloge Ammoniterne, indtil Dagen blev hed; og det skete, at de, som bleve tilovers, bleve saa adspredte, at der ikke blev tilovers af dem to sammen.
And it was from [the] next day and he made Saul the people three companies and they went in [the] midst of the camp in [the] watch of the morning and they struck down Ammon until [the] heat of the day and it was those [who] remained and they were scattered and not they remained among them two together.
12 Da sagde Folket til Samuel: Hvo er den, som sagde: Skulde Saul regere over os? giver de Mænd hid, saa ville vi slaa dem ihjel.
And it said the people to Samuel who? [is] the [one who] said Saul will he reign? over us deliver up the men so we may put to death them.
13 Men Saul sagde: Der skal ingen Mand dø paa denne Dag; thi Herren har i Dag givet Frelse i Israel.
And he said Saul not he will be put to death anyone on the day this for this day he has done Yahweh deliverance in Israel.
14 Og Samuel sagde til Folket: Kommer og lader os gaa til Gilgal, og der ville vi paa ny give ham Riget.
And he said Samuel to the people come so let us go Gilgal so we may renew there the kingship.
15 Da gik alt Folket til Gilgal og gjorde der Saul til Konge for Herrens Ansigt i Gilgal og slagtede der Takofre for Herrens Ansigt; og Saul glædede sig der og alle Israels Mænd saare meget.
And they went all the people Gilgal and they made king there Saul before Yahweh in Gilgal and they sacrificed there sacrifices peace offerings before Yahweh and he rejoiced there Saul and all [the] men of Israel up to muchness.
