1 Samuel 25

1 Da Samuel var død, samledes hele Israel og holdt Klage over ham; og man jordede ham i hans Hjem i Rama. Derpaa brød David op og drog ned til Maons Ørken.

And he died Samuel and they gathered together all Israel and they mourned for him and they buried him at house his in Ramah and he arose David and he went down to [the] wilderness of Paran.

2 I Maon boede en Mand, som havde sin Bedrift i Karmel; denne Mand var hovedrig, han havde 3000 faar og 1000 Geder; og han var netop i Karmel til Faareklipning.

And a man [was] in Maon and business his [was] in Carmel and the man [was] great very and [belonged] to him sheep three thousand and one thousand goats and it was when sheared sheep his in Carmel.

3 Manden hed Nabal, hans Hustru Abigajil; hun var en klog og smuk Kvinde, medens Manden var haard og ond. Han var Kalebit.

And [the] name of the man [was] Nabal and [the] name of wife his [was] Abigail and the woman [was] good of insight and beautiful of appearance and the man [was] hard and evil of deeds and he ([was] a Calebite. *Q(K)*)

4 Da David ude i Ørkenen hørte, at Nabal havde Faareklipning,

And he heard David in the wilderness that [was] shearing Nabal sheep his.

5 sendte han ti af sine Folk af Sted og sagde til dem: »Gaa op til Karmel, og naar I kommer til Nabal, saa hils ham fra mig

And he sent David ten young men and he said David to the young men go up Carmel towards and you will go to Nabal and you will ask of him in name my to welfare.

6 og sig til min Broder: Fred være med dig, Fred være med dit Hus, og Fred være med alt, hvad dit er!

And you will say thus to the living [one] and you peace and house your peace and all that [belongs] to you peace.

7 Jeg har hørt, at du har Faareklipning. Nu har dine Hyrder opholdt sig hos os; vi har ikke fornærmet dem, og de har intet mistet, i al den Tid de har været i Karmel;

And now I have heard that shearers [belong] to you now the shepherds who [belong] to you they have been with us not we have humiliated them and not it has been missing to them anything all [the] days of being they in Carmel.

8 spørg kun dine Folk, saa skal de fortælle dig det. Fat Godhed for Folkene! Vi kommer jo til en Festdag; giv dine Trælle og din Søn David, hvad du vil unde os!«

Ask own young men your so they may tell to you and let them find the young men favor in view your for on a day good we have come give! please [that] which it will find hand your to servants your and to son your to David.

9 Davids Folk kom hen og sagde alt dette til Nabal fra David og biede saa paa Svar.

And they went [the] young men of David and they spoke to Nabal according to all the words these in [the] name of David and they rested.

10 Men Nabal svarede Davids Folk: »Hvem er David, hvem er Isajs Søn? Nu til Dags er der saa mange Trælle, der løber fra deres Herre.

And he answered Nabal [the] servants of David and he said who? [is] David and who? [is] [the] son of Jesse this day they are many servants who break away each one from before master his.

11 Skulde jeg tage mit Brød, min Vin og mit Slagtekvæg, som jeg har slagtet til mine Faareklippere, og give det til Mænd, jeg ikke ved, hvor er fra?«

And will I take bread my and water my and slaughter my which I have slaughtered for shearers my and will I give [them] to men who not I know where? from this [are] they.

12 Saa begav Davids Folk sig paa Hjemvejen, og da de kom tilbage, fortalte de ham det hele:

And they turned round [the] young men of David to way their and they returned and they came and they told to him according to all the words these.

13 Da sagde David til sine Folk: »Spænd alle eders Sværd ved Lænd!« Da spændte de alle deres Sværd om, ogsaa David. Og henved 400 Mand fulgte David, medens 200 blev ved Trosset.

And he said David to men his gird on - everyone sword his and they girded on everyone sword his and he girded on also David sword his and they went up - after David about four hundred man and two hundred they remained with the baggage.

14 Men en af Folkene fortalte Nabals Hustru Abigajil det og sagde: »David sendte Bud fra Ørkenen for at hilse paa vor Herre; men han overfusede dem,

And to Abigail [the] wife of Nabal he told a young man one from the young men saying there! he sent David messengers - from the wilderness to bless master our and he shouted at them.

15 skønt de Mænd har været meget gode mod os og ikke fornærmet os, og vi har intet mistet, i al den Tid vi færdedes sammen med dem, da vi var ude i Marken.

And the men [were] good to us very and not we were humiliated and not we missed anything all [the] days [which] we went about with them when were we in the field.

16 De var en Mur om os baade Nat og Dag, i al den Tid vi vogtede Smaakvæget i Nærheden af dem.

A wall they were with us both night as well as by day all [the] days of being we with them shepherding the flock.

17 Se nu til, hvad du vil gøre, thi Ulykken hænger over Hovedet paa vor Herre og hele hans Hus; han selv er jo en Usling, man ikke kan tale med!«

And now know and see what? will you do for it has been determined evil against master our and on all household his and he [is] a son of worthlessness from speaking to him.

18 Saa gik Abigajil straks hen og tog 200 Brød, to Dunke Vin, fem tillavede Faar, fem Sea ristet Korn, 100 Rosinkager og 200 Figenkager, lagde det paa Æslerne

And she made haste (Abigail *Q(k)*) and she took two hundred bread[s] and two jars of wine and five sheep (prepared *Q(k)*) and five seahs of roasted grain and a hundred bunches of raisins and two hundred fig cakes and she put [them] on the donkeys.

19 og sagde til sine Karle: »Gaa i Forvejen, jeg kommer bagefter!« Men sin Mand Nabal sagde hun intet derom.

And she said to servants her pass on before me here I after you [will be] coming and to husband her Nabal not she told.

20 Som hun nu paa sit Æsel red ned ad Vejen i Skjul af Bjerget, kom David og hans Mænd ned imod hende, saa hun mødte dem.

And it was she - [was] riding on the donkey and [was] going down in [the] cover of the mountain and there! David and men his [were] going down to meet her and she met them.

21 Men David havde sagt: »Det er slet ingen Nytte til, at jeg i Ørkenen har værnet om alt, hvad den Mand ejede, saa intet deraf gik tabt; han har gengældt mig godt med ondt.

And David he had said surely to deception I have guarded all that [belongs] to this [man] in the wilderness and not it has been missing any of all that [belongs] to him anything and he has returned to me evil in place of good.

22 Gud ramme David baade med det ene og det andet, om jeg levner noget mandligt Væsen af alt, hvad hans er, til Morgenens Frembrud!«

Thus may he do God to [the] enemies David and thus may he add if I will leave any of all that [belongs] to him until the morning [one who] urinates on a wall.

23 Da Abigajil fik Øje paa David, sprang hun straks af Æselet og kastede sig ned for David paa sit Ansigt, bøjede sig til Jorden,

And she saw Abigail David and she made haste and she came down from on the donkey and she fell to [the] face of David on face her and she bowed down [the] ground.

24 faldt ned for hans Fødder og sagde: »Skylden er min, Herre! Lad din Trælkvinde tale til dig og hør din Trælkvindes Ord!

And she fell at feet his and she said [be] on me I O lord my the iniquity and let her speak please maidservant your in ears your and hear [the] words of maidservant your.

25 Min Herre maa ikke regne med den Usling til Nabal! Han svarer til sit Navn; Nabal hedder han, og fuld af Daarskab er han; men jeg, din Trælkvinde, saa ikke min Herres Folk, som du sendte hid.

May not please he set lord my - heart his to [the] man of worthlessness this on Nabal for like name his [is] so he [is] Nabal name his and disgraceful folly [is] with him and I maidservant your not I saw [the] young men of lord my whom you sent.

26 Men nu, min Herre, saa sandt HERREN lever, og saa sandt du lever, du, hvem HERREN har holdt fra at paadrage dig Blodskyld og tage dig selv til Rette: Maatte det gaa dine Fjender og dem, som pønser paa ondt mod min Herre, som Nabal!

And now O lord my [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of self your that he has restrained you Yahweh from coming in blood and [from] delivering hand your you and now may they be like Nabal enemies your and those [who] seek against lord my evil.

27 Lad nu Folkene, som følger min Herre, faa denne Gave, som din Trælkvinde bringer min Herre.

And now the blessing this which he has brought maidservant your to lord my and it will be given to the young men who go about at [the] feet of lord my.

28 Tilgiv dog din Trælkvinde hendes Brøde; thi HERREN vil visselig bygge min Herre et Hus, som skal staa, eftersom min Herre fører HERRENS Krige, og der ikke har været noget ondt at finde hos dig, saa længe du har levet.

Forgive please to [the] transgression of maidservant your for certainly he will make Yahweh for lord my a house enduring for [the] battles of Yahweh lord my [is] fighting and evil not it will be found in you from days your.

29 Og skulde nogen rejse sig for at forfølge dig og staa dig efter Livet, maatte da min Herres Liv være bundet i de levendes Knippe hos HERREN din Gud; men dine Fjenders Liv slynge han bort med Slyngeskaalen!

And he has arisen a man to pursue you and to seek life your and it will be [the] life of lord my bound up - in [the] bundle of the living with Yahweh God your and [the] life of enemies your he will sling out it in [the] midst of [the] hollow of sling.

30 Naar HERREN saa for min Herre opfylder alt det gode, han lovede dig, og sætter dig til Fyrste over Israel,

And it will be that he will do Yahweh to lord my according to all that he has spoken the good on you and he will appoint you to ruler over Israel.

31 da faar du ikke dette at bebrejde dig selv, og min Herre faar ikke Samvittighedsnag af, at han uden Grund udgød Blod, og at min Herre tog sig selv til Rette. Og naar HERREN gør vel imod min Herre, kom da din Trælkvinde i Hu!«

And not it will become this - for you staggering and stumbling of heart for lord my and pouring out of blood without cause and to deliver lord my himself and he will do good Yahweh to lord my and you will remember maidservant your.

32 Da sagde David til Abigajil: »Priset være HERREN, Israels Gud, som i Dag sendte mig dig i Møde,

And he said David to Abigail [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he has sent you the day this to meet me.

33 priset være din Klogskab, og priset være du selv, som i bag holdt mig fra at paadrage mig Blodskyld og tage mig selv til Rette!

And [be] blessed discernment your and [be] blessed you who you have restrained me the day this from coming in blood and [from] delivering hand my me.

34 Men saa sandt HERREN, Israels Gud, lever, som holdt mig fra at gøre dig Men: Hvis du ikke var ilet mig i Møde, var ikke et mandligt Væsen levnet Nabal til i Morgen!«

And but [by] [the] life of Yahweh [the] God of Israel who he has restrained me from doing harm to you if - if not you had made haste (and you had come *Q(k)*) to meet me that except he has been left to Nabal until [the] light of the morning [one who] urinates on a wall.

35 Og David modtog af hende, hvad hun havde bragt ham, og sagde til hende: »Gaa op til dit Hus i Fred! Jeg har laant dig Øre og opfyldt dit Ønske.«

And he took David from hand her [that] which she had brought to him and to her he said go up to peace to house your see I have listened to voice your and I have lifted up face your.

36 Da Abigajil kom hjem til Nabal, holdt han netop i sit Hus et Gæstebud som en Konges; og da han var glad og stærkt beruset, sagde hun ham ikke det mindste, før det dagedes.

And she went Abigail - to Nabal and there! [belonged] to him a feast in house his like [the] feast of king and [the] heart of Nabal it was good on him and he [was] drunk up to muchness and not she told to him anything small and great until [the] light of the morning.

37 Men om Morgenen, da Nabals Rus var ovre, fortalte hans Hustru ham Sagen. Da lammedes Hjertet i hans Bryst, og han blev som Sten;

And it was in the morning when had gone out the wine from Nabal and she told to him wife his the things these and it died heart his in inward part[s] his and he he became stone.

38 og en halv Snes Dage efter slog HERREN Nabal, saa han døde.

And it was about [the] ten the days and he struck Yahweh Nabal and he died.

39 Da David fik at vide, at Nabal var død, sagde han: »Lovet være HERREN, som har hævnet den Krænkelse, Nabal tilføjede mig, og holdt sin Tjener fra at gøre ondt; HERREN har ladet Nabals Ondskab falde tilbage paa hans eget Hoved!« Derpaa sendte David Bud og bejlede til Abigajil.

And he heard David that he had died Nabal and he said [be] blessed Yahweh who he has conducted [the] case of disgrace my from [the] hand of Nabal and servant his he has restrained from evil and [the] evil of Nabal he has turned back Yahweh on own head his and he sent David and he spoke with Abigail to take her for himself to a wife.

40 Og da Davids Trælle kom til Abigajil i Karmel, talte de saaledes til hende: »David har sendt os til dig for at bejle til dig!«

And they went [the] servants of David to Abigail Carmel towards and they spoke to her saying David he has sent us to you to take you for himself to a wife.

41 Da rejste hun sig, bøjede sig med Ansigtet mod Jorden og sagde: »Din Tjenerinde er rede til at blive min Herres Trælkvinde og tvætte hans Trælles Fødder!«

And she arose and she bowed down face [the] ground towards and she said here! maidservant your to a maid to wash [the] feet of [the] servants of lord my.

42 Saa stod Abigajil hastigt op og satte sig paa sit Æsel, og hendes fem Piger ledsagede hende; og hun fulgte med Davids Sendebud og blev hans Hustru.

And she made haste and she arose Abigail and she rode on the donkey and five maids her who walked to foot her and she went after [the] messengers of David and she became of him a wife.

43 Desuden havde David ægtet Ahinoam fra Jizre'el. Saaledes blev de begge to hans Hustruer.

And Ahinoam he had taken David from Jezreel and they became also both of them of him wives.

44 Men Saul gav sin Datter Mikal, Davids Hustru, til Palti, Lajisj's Søn, fra Gallim.

And Saul he had given Michal daughter his [the] wife of David to Palti [the] son of Laish who [was] from Gallim.
