1 Derpaa samlede hele Israel sig hos David i Hebron og sagde: »Vi er jo dit Kød og Blod!
Then did all Israel gather themselves unto David unto Hebron, saying Behold, thy bone and thy flesh are we.
2 Allerede før i Tiden, medens Saul var Konge, var det dig, som førte Israel ud i Kamp og hjem igen; og HERREN din Gud sagde til dig: Du skal vogte mit Folk Israel og være Hersker over mit Folk Israel!«
Already yesterday and even before, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that led out and brought in Israel; and the Lord, thy God, said unto thee, Thou shalt indeed feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be truly a chief over my people Israel.
3 Og alle Israels Ældste kom til Kongen i Hebron, og David sluttede i Hebron Pagt med dem for HERRENS Aasyn, og de salvede David til Konge over Israel efter HERRENS Ord ved Samuel.
Thus came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord; and they anointed David as king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord through means of Samuel.
4 Derpaa drog David med hele Israel til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; der boede Jebusiterne, Landets oprindelige Indbyggere;
And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; and there were the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land.
5 og Indbyggerne i Jebus sagde til David: »Her kan du ikke trænge ind!« Men David indtog Klippeborgen Zion, det er Davidsbyen.
And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come in hither. Nevertheless David captured the strong-hold of Zion, the same is the City of David.
6 Og David sagde: »Den, der først slaar en Jebusit, skal være Øverste og Hærfører!« Og da Joab, Zerujas Søn, var den første, der steg derop, blev han Øverste.
And David said, Whosoever doth smite the Jebusites at first shall be head and chief. Then did Joab the son of Zeruyah go up at first, and became head-man.
7 Saa tog David Bolig i Klippeborgen, hvorfor man kaldte den Davidsbyen;
And David dwelt in the castle: therefore they called it, “The City of David.”
8 og han befæstede Byen hele Vejen rundt fra Millo af; Resten af Byen genopførte Joab.
And he built the city round about, even from the Millo as far as the surrounding district, and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 Og David blev mægtigere og mægtigere; Hærskarers HERRE var med ham.
And David want on, and became greater and greater, and the lord of hosts was with him.
10 Følgende var de ypperste at Davids Helte, som sammen med hele Israel kraftig stod ham bi med at naa Kongedømmet, saa de fik ham valgt til Konge efter HERRENS Ord til Israel.
These also are the principals of the mighty men whom David had, who held firmly with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord concerning Israel.
11 Navnene paa Davids Helte var følgende: Isjba'al, Hakmonis Søn, Anføreren for de tre; det var ham, som engang svang sit Spyd over 300 faldne paa een Gang.
And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashoh'am, the son of Chachmoni, the chief of the captains, who lifted up his spear against three hundred slain at one time.
12 Blandt de tre Helte kom efter ham Ahohiten El'azar, Dodos Søn;
And after him was El'asar the son of Dodo, the Achochite, who was one of the three mighty men.
13 han var med David ved Pas-Dammim, dengang Filisterne samlede sig der til Kamp. Marken var fuld af Byg, og Folkene flygtede for Filisterne;
He was with David at Pass-dammim, and the Philistines were gathered together there to battle, and there was a piece of ground full of barley; and the people had fled from before the Philistines.
14 men han stillede sig op midt paa Marken og holdt den og huggede Filisterne ned; og HERREN gav dem en stor Sejr.
And they placed themselves in the midst of that piece [of ground], and they delivered it, and smote the Philistines: and the Lord helped [them] with a great victory.
15 Engang drog tre af de tredive ned til David paa Klippen, til Adullams Hule, medens Filisternes Hær var lejret i Refaimdalen.
And these three, the chiefs of the thirty, went down to the rock to David, to the cave of 'Adullam; and the camp of the Philistines was pitched in the valley of Rephaim.
16 David var dengang i Klippeborgen, medens Filisternes Foged var i Betlehem.
And David was then in the strong-hold, and an outpost of the Philistines was then at Beth-lechem.
17 Saa vaagnede Lysten hos David, og han sagde: »Hvem skaffer mig en Drik Vand fra Cisternen ved Betlehems Port?«
And David longed, and said, Oh that some one would bring me water to drink out of the well of Beth-lechem, which is by the gate!
18 Da banede de tre Helte sig Vej gennem Filisternes Lejr, øste Vand af Cisternen ved Betlehems Port og bragte David det. Han vilde dog ikke drikke det, men udgød det for HERREN
And the three broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lechem, which was by the gate, and carried it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink thereof, and poured it out unto the Lord.
19 med de Ord: »Gud vogte mig for at gøre det! Skulde jeg drikke de Mænds blod, som har vovet deres Liv? Thi med Fare for deres Liv har de hentet det!« Og han vilde ikke drikke det. Den Daad udførte de tre Helte.
And he said, Far be it from me, before my God, that I should do this: shall I drink the blood of these men that went at the risk of their lives? for at the risk of their lives did they bring it; and thus he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.
20 Abisjaj, Joabs Broder, var Anfører for de tredive. Han svang sit Spyd over de faldne, og han var navnkundig blandt de tredive;
And Abshai the brother of Joab was the chief of these three; and he lifted up his spear against three hundred slain, and had a name among the three.
21 iblandt de tredive var han højt æret, og han var deres Anfører; men de tre naaede han ikke.
Of the three, he was more honored than the two, wherefore he became their captain; he nevertheless attained not unto the three [in prowess].
22 Benaja, Jojadas Søn, var en tapper Mand fra Kabze'el, der havde udført store Heltegerninger; han fældede de to Arielsønner fra Moab; og han steg ned og fældede en Løve i en Cisterne, en Dag den var faldet Sne.
Banayah the son of Jehoyada', the son of a valiant man, great in many acts, of Kah-zeel: he it was that smote the two lion-like heroes of Moab; he also went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit on a day when it snowed.
23 Ligeledes fældede han Ægypteren, en kæmpestor Mand, fem Alen høj. Ægypteren havde et Spyd som en Væverbom i Haanden, men han gik ned imod ham med en Stok, vristede Spydet ud af Haanden paa ham og dræbte ham med hans eget Spyd.
And he smote an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and he snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
24 Disse Heltegerninger udførte Benaja, Jojadas Søn, og han var navnkundig iblandt de tredive Helte;
These things did Benayah the son of Jehoyada'; and he had a name among the mighty men.
25 iblandt de tredive var han højt æret, men de tre naaede han ikke. David satte ham over sin Livvagt.
Behold, he was indeed more honored than the thirty; but he attained not to the first three. And David appointed him over his private council.
26 De tapre Helte var: Asa'el, Joabs Broder; Elhanan, Dodos Søn, fra Betlehem;
