< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 Og det skete derefter, at David spurgte Herren ad og sagde: Skal jeg drage op i en af Judas Stæder? og Herren sagde til ham: Drag op! og David sagde: Hvorhen skal jeg drage op? og han sagde: Til Hebron.
And it was after thus and he enquired David by Yahweh - saying ¿ will I go up in one of [the] cities of Judah and he said Yahweh to him go up and he said David where? will I go up and he said Hebron towards.
2 Saa drog David op derhen, saa og hans to Hustruer, Ahinoam, den jisreelitiske, og Abigail, Karmeliteren Nabals Hustru.
And he went up there David and also [the] two wives his Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
3 Derhen førte David sine Mænd op, som vare hos ham, hver med sit Hus, og de boede i Hebrons Stæder.
And men his who [were] with him he brought up David each man and household his and they dwelt in [the] cities of Hebron.
4 Og Judas Mænd kom og salvede der David til Konge over Judas Hus; og de gave David til Kende og sagde: Mændene af Jabes i Gilead ere de, som have begravet Saul.
And they came [the] people of Judah and they anointed there David to king over [the] house of Judah and people told to David saying [the] men of Jabesh Gilead who they buried Saul.
5 Da sendte David Bud til Mændene af Jabes i Gilead og lod dem sige: Velsignede være I for Herren, at I gjorde denne Miskundhed imod eders Herre, imod Saul, at I begrove ham.
And he sent David messengers to [the] people of Jabesh Gilead and he said to them [be] blessed you by Yahweh that you have done the loyalty this with lord your with Saul and you have buried him.
6 Og nu vise Herren Miskundhed og Trofasthed imod eder, og jeg vil ogsaa vise imod eder denne Godhed, fordi I gjorde denne Gerning.
And now may he do Yahweh with you covenant loyalty and faithfulness and also I I will do with you the good this that you have done the thing this.
7 Saa være nu eders Hænder stærke, og værer tapre Mænd, skønt eders Herre Saul er død; thi ogsaa Judas Hus har salvet mig til Konge over sig.
And now - let them be strong hands your and become sons of strength for he has died lord your Saul and also me they have anointed [the] house of Judah to king over them.
8 Men Abner, Ners Søn, Stridshøvedsmanden, som Saul havde havt, tog Isboseth, Sauls Søn, og førte ham over til Mahanaim.
And Abner [the] son of Ner [the] commander of [the] army which [belonged] to Saul he had taken Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul and he had brought over him Mahanaim.
9 Og han gjorde ham til Konge over Gilead og over Assuri og over Jisreel og over Efraim og over Benjamin, ja, over al Israel.
And he made king him to Gilead and to the Ashurite[s] and to Jezreel and over Ephraim and over Benjamin and over Israel all of it.
10 Isboseth, Sauls Søn, var fyrretyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge over Israel, og han havde regeret to Aar; Judas Hus alene var efter David.
[was] a son of Forty year[s] Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul when became king he over Israel and two years he reigned only [the] house of Judah they were after David.
11 Men Tallet paa de Dage, David var Konge i Hebron over Judas Hus, var syv Aar og seks Maaneder.
And it was [the] number of the days which he was David king in Hebron over [the] house of Judah seven years and six months.
12 Og Abner, Ners Søn, drog ud med Isboseths, Sauls Søns, Tjenere fra Mahanaim til Gibeon.
And he went out Abner [the] son of Ner and [the] servants of Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul from Mahanaim Gibeon towards.
13 Og Joab, Zerujas Søn, og Davids Tjenere droge ogsaa ud, og de stødte sammen ved Gibeons Dam; og de bleve, disse paa denne Side af Dammen, og de andre paa den anden Side af Dammen.
And Joab [the] son of Zeruiah and [the] servants of David they went out and they met them at [the] pool of Gibeon together and they sat down these [men] at the pool from this and these [men] at the pool from this.
14 Og Abner sagde til Joab: Lad dog de unge Karle gøre sig rede og holde Kampleg for vort Ansigt; Joab sagde: Lad dem gøre sig rede.
And he said Abner to Joab let them arise please the young men and let them play before us and he said Joab let them arise.
15 Saa gjorde de sig rede og gik over efter Tallet; tolv for Benjamin, det er for Isboseth, Sauls Søn, og tolv af Davids Tjenere.
And they arose and they passed by by number two [plus] ten for Benjamin and for Ish-bosheth [the] son of Saul and two [plus] ten from [the] servants of David.
16 Og den ene tog den anden fat ved Hovedet og stødte sit Sværd i den andens Side, og de faldt til Hobe, og man kaldte det Sted Helkat-Zurim, som er ved Gibeon.
And they took hold each - on [the] head of neighbor his and sword his [was] in [the] side of neighbor his and they fell together and someone called the place that Helkath Hazzurim which [is] in Gibeon.
17 Og Striden blev samme Dag saare haard; men Abner og Israels Mænd bleve slagne for Davids Tjeneres Ansigt.
And it was the battle severe up to muchness on the day that and he was defeated Abner and [the] men of Israel before [the] servants of David.
18 Men der var tre Zerujas Sønner, Joab og Abisaj og Asael; men Asael var let paa sine Fødder, som en af Raaerne, der ere paa Marken.
And they were there three [the] sons of Zeruiah Joab and Abishai and Asahel and Asahel [was] swift on feet his like one of the gazelles which [are] in the open country.
19 Og Asael forfulgte Abner, og han bøjede ikke af til at gaa til den højre eller venstre Side fra Abner.
And he pursued Asahel after Abner and not he turned aside to go to the right and to the left from after Abner.
20 Da saa Abner sig tilbage og sagde: Er det dig, Asael? og han sagde: Ja det er.
And he turned Abner behind him and he said ¿ you [is] this O Asahel and he said I.
21 Og Abner sagde til ham: Bøj dig til din højre eller til din venstre Side, og grib dig en af de unge Karle og tag dig hans Rustning; men Asael vilde ikke vige fra ham.
And he said to him Abner turn aside for yourself to right your or to left your and seize for yourself one from the young men and take for yourself spoils his and not he was willing Asahel to turn aside from after him.
22 Da blev Abner ydermere ved og sagde til Asael: Vig du fra mig; hvorfor skulde jeg slaa dig til Jorden? og hvorledes skulde jeg da opløfte mit Ansigt for din Broder Joab?
And he repeated again Abner to say to Asahel turn aside for yourself from after me why? will I strike you [the] ground towards and how? will I lift up face my to Joab brother your.
23 Men han vægrede sig ved at vige; da stak Abner ham med Bagenden af Spydet i Underlivet, og Spydet gik bag ud af ham, og han faldt der og døde paa Stedet; og det skete, hver den, som kom til det Sted, hvor Asael var falden og var død, de stode stille.
And he refused to turn aside and he struck him Abner with [the] back end of the spear into the belly and it went out the spear from behind him and he fell there and he died (in place his *Q(K)*) and it was every [one] who came to the place where he fell there Asahel and he died and they stood still.
24 Men Joab og Abisaj forfulgte Abner, og Solen gik ned, da de kom paa Ammas Høj, som er lige for Gia paa Vejen til Gibeons Ørk.
And they pursued Joab and Abishai after Abner and the sun it set and they they came to [the] hill of Ammah which [is] on [the] face of Giah [the] way of [the] wilderness of Gibeon.
25 Og Benjamins Børn samlede sig om Abner og bleve en Klynge, og de stode paa Toppen af en Høj.
And they gathered together [the] descendants of Benjamin behind Abner and they became a band one and they stood on [the] top of a hill one.
26 Da raabte Abner til Joab og sagde: Skal Sværdet fortære evindeligt? ved du ikke, at det vil vorde bittert paa det sidste? og hvor længe varer det, inden du siger til Folket, at de skulle vende om fra at forfølge deres Brødre?
And he called out Abner to Joab and he said ¿ to perpetuity will it devour [the] sword ¿ not do you know? that bitter it will be at the last and until when? not will you say to the people to turn back from after brothers their.
27 Og Joab svarede: Saa vist som Gud lever, dersom du ikke havde talt, da var Folket draget herfra i Morges, uden at forfølge hver sin Broder.
And he said Joab [by] [the] life of God if if not you had spoken for then from the morning it had abandoned pursuit the people each from after brother his.
28 Saa blæste Joab i Trompeten, og alt Folket standsede og forfulgte ikke ydermere Israel, og de bleve ej heller ydermere ved at stride.
And he gave a blast Joab on the trumpet and they stood all the people and not they pursued again after Israel and not they repeated again to wage war.
29 Men Abner og hans Mænd gik hele denne Nat over den slette Mark, og de gik over Jordanen og vandrede igennem hele Bithron og kom til Mahanaim.
And Abner and men his they went in the Arabah all the night that and they passed over the Jordan and they went all Bitron and they came Mahanaim.
30 Og Joab vendte tilbage fra at forfølge Abner og samlede alt Folket, og der savnedes nitten Mænd af Davids Tjenere og Asael.
And Joab he returned from after Abner and he gathered all the people and they were missed of [the] servants of David nine-teen man and Asah-el.
31 Men Davids Tjenere havde slaget af Benjamin og af Abners Mænd, saa at der vare tre Hundrede og tresindstyve Mand døde.
And [the] servants of David they had struck down of Benjamin and among [the] men of Abner three hundred and sixty man they had died.
32 Og de toge Asael op og begrove ham i hans Faders Grav, som var i Bethlehem, og Joab og hans Mænd gik den ganske Nat, saa at de i Dagbrækningen vare i Hebron.
And people lifted up Asahel and they buried him in [the] tomb of father his which [was] Beth-lehem and they went all the night Joab and men his and it became light for them at Hebron.
