< 2 Samuel 23 >
1 Og disse ere de sidste Davids Ord: Saa sagde David, Isajs Søn, og saa sagde den Mand, som er højt ophøjet, Jakobs Guds Salvede, og lystelig ved Israels Salmer:
And these [are] the last words of David: — 'The affirmation of David son of Jesse — And the affirmation of the man raised up — Concerning the Anointed of the God of Jacob, And the Sweetness of the Songs of Israel:
2 Herrens Aand talede ved mig, og hans Tale er paa min Tunge.
The Spirit of Jehovah hath spoken by me, And His word [is] on my tongue.
3 Israels Gud sagde, til mig talede Israels Klippe: Der skal være en, som hersker iblandt Menneskene, en retfærdig, en, som hersker i Guds Frygt,
He said — the God of Israel — to me, He spake — the Rock of Israel: He who is ruling over man [is] righteous, He is ruling in the fear of God.
4 og som Lys om Morgenen, naar Solen opgaar, om Morgenen, naar der ikke ere Skyer, naar Græsset vokser af Jorden ved Solskin efter Regnen.
And as the light of morning he riseth, A morning sun — no clouds! By the shining, by the rain, Tender grass of the earth!
5 Thi staar mit Hus sig ikke saa med Gud? thi han har sat mig en evig Pagt, som er ordentligt beskikket i alle Maader og bevaret; thi al min Frelse og al min Lyst, skulde han ej lade den spire frem?
For — not so [is] my house with God; For — a covenant age-during He made with me, Arranged in all things, and kept; For — all my salvation, and all desire, For — He hath not caused [it] to spring up.
6 Men Belials Børn, de skulle alle sammen være som Torne, der udkastes; thi de kunne ikke tages med Haand.
As to the worthless — As a thorn driven away [are] all of them, For — not by hand are they taken;
7 Men hver, som vil røre ved dem, maa være forsynet med Jern og Spydstage; og de skulle opbrændes med Ild, hvor de bo.
And the man who cometh against them Is filled with iron and the staff of a spear, And with fire they are utterly burnt In the cessation.'
8 Disse ere Navnene paa de vældige, som hørte David til: Joseb-Basebeth Takmoni var en Øverste for Høvedsmændene, han svingede sin Lanse imod otte Hundrede, som bleve ihjelslagne paa een Gang.
These [are] the names of the mighty ones whom David hath: sitting in the seat [is] the Tachmonite, head of the captains — he [is] Adino, who hardened himself against eight hundred — wounded at one time.
9 Og efter ham var Eleasar, en Søn af Dodo, som var en Søn af Ahohi; han var iblandt de tre vældige med David, da de forhaanede Filisterne, som der vare forsamlede til Strid, medens Israels Mænd droge op.
And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, of the three mighty men with David; in their exposing themselves among the Philistines — they have been gathered there to battle, and the men of Israel go up —
10 Han stod op og slog Filisterne, indtil hans Haand blev træt, og hans Haand hang fast ved Sværdet, og Herren gjorde en stor Frelse paa den samme Dag; og Folket vendte tilbage efter ham kun for at udplyndre de ihjelslagne.
he hath arisen, and smiteth among the Philistines till that his hand hath been weary, and his hand cleaveth unto the sword, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation on that day, and the people turn back after him only to strip off.
11 Og efter ham var Arariteren Samma, Ages Søn; da Filisterne vare forsamlede i en Hob, da var der sammesteds et Stykke Land fuldt med Linser, og Folket flyede for Filisternes Ansigt,
And after him [is] Shammah son of Agee the Hararite, and the Philistines are gathered into a company, and there is there a portion of the field full of lentiles, and the people hath fled from the presence of the Philistines,
12 og han stillede sig midt paa dette Stykke og friede det og slog Filisterne, og Herren gjorde en stor Frelse.
and he stationeth himself in the midst of the portion, and delivereth it, and smiteth the Philistines, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation.
13 Og tre af de tredive ypperste gik ned og kom om Høsten til David til Hulen ved Adullam, og Filisternes Hob havde lejret sig i Refaims Dal.
And three of the thirty heads go down and come unto the harvest, unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the company of the Philistines are encamping in the valley of Rephaim,
14 Og David var da i Befæstningen; men Filisternes Befæstning var da i Bethlehem.
and David [is] then in a fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,
15 Og David fik Lyst og sagde: Hvo vil give mig Vand at drikke af den Brønd i Bethlehem, som er ved Porten?
and David longeth and saith, 'Who doth give me a drink of the water of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate?'
16 Da brøde de tre vældige ind i Filisternes Lejr og droge Vand af den Brønd i Bethlehem, som er i Porten, og de bare og førte det til David; men han vilde ikke drikke deraf, men udøste det for Herren.
And the three mighty ones cleave through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water out of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate, and take [it] up, and bring in unto David; and he was not willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,
17 Og han sagde: Det være langt fra mig, o Herre! at jeg skulde gøre dette! er det ikke de Mænds Blod, som gik derhen med Livsfare? Og han vilde ikke drikke det. Dette gjorde de tre vældige.
and saith, 'Far be it from me, O Jehovah, to do this; is it the blood of the men who are going with their lives?' and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] did the three mighty ones.
18 Og Abisaj, Joabs Broder, Zerujas Søn, var en Øverste for Høvedsmændene, og han opløftede sit Spyd imod tre Hundrede, som bleve ihjelslagne; og han var navnkundig iblandt de tre.
And Abishai brother of Joab, son of Zeruiah, he [is] head of three, and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, and he hath a name among three.
19 Var han ikke herligere end de tre? og han var deres Øverste; men han naaede ikke de tre.
Of the three is he not the honoured? and he becometh their head; and unto the [first] three he hath not come.
20 Og Benaja, Jojadas Søn, var en stridbar Mands Søn, stor 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.
And Benaiah son of Jehoiada (son of a man of valour, great in deeds from Kabzeel), he hath smitten two lion-like men of Moab, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit in a day of snow.
21 Og han slog en ægyptisk Mand, som var anselig, og den Ægypter havde et Spyd i sin Haand; men han gik ned til ham med en Kæp, og han rykkede Spydet af Ægypterens Haand og slog ham ihjel med hans eget Spyd.
And he hath smitten the Egyptian man, a man of appearance, and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear, and he goeth down unto him with a rod, and taketh violently away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slayeth him with his own spear.
22 Disse Ting gjorde Benaja, Jojadas Søn, og han var navnkundig iblandt de tre vældige,
These [things] hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among three mighty.
23 herligere end de tredive, men han naaede ikke de tre; og David satte ham i sit Raad.
Of the thirty he is honoured, and unto the three he came not; and David setteth him over his guard.
24 Asael, Joabs Broder, var iblandt de tredive; Elhanan, Dodos Søn af Bethlehem;
