< Anden Kongebog 6 >

1 Profetsønnerne sagde engang til Elisa: »Se, der er for lidt Plads til os her, hvor vi sidder hos dig.
And they said [the] sons of the prophets to Elisha here! please the place where we [are] dwelling there before you it is [too] cramped for us.
2 Vi vil gaa til Jordan og hver tage en Bjælke og der indrette os et Rum, vi kan sidde i!« Han sagde: »Ja, gør det!«
Let us go please to the Jordan and let us take from there each a beam one and let us make for ourselves there a place to dwell there and he said go.
3 Men en af dem sagde: »Vil du ikke nok følge med dine Trælle!« Og han svarede: »Jo, det vil jeg!«
And he said the one be willing please and go with servants your and he said I I will go.
4 Han gik saa med, og da de kom til Jordan, gav de sig til at fælde Træer.
And he went with them and they came the Jordan towards and they cut down trees.
5 Medens nu en af dem var ved at fælde en Bjælke, faldt hans Øksejern i Vandet. Da gav han sig til at raabe: »Ak, min Herre! Og det var endda laant!«
And it was the one [was] making fall the beam and the iron it fell into the water and he cried out and he said alas! O lord my and it [was] asked.
6 Men den Guds Mand sagde: »Hvor faldt det?« Og da han havde vist ham Stedet, skar han en Gren af og kastede den derhen. Da kom Øksen op paa Overfladen;
And he said [the] man of God where? did it fall and he showed him the place and he cut off a piece of wood and he threw [it] there towards and he caused to float the iron.
7 og han sagde: »Tag den op!« Saa rakte han Haanden ud og tog den.
And he said lift [it] yourself and he stretched out hand his and he took it.
8 Engang Arams Konge laa i Krig med Israel, aftalte han med sine Folk, at de skulde lægge sig i Baghold paa det og det Sted.
And [the] king of Aram he was fighting against Israel and he consulted servants his saying [will be] to a place of a certain one a certain one encampments my.
9 Men den Guds, Mand sendte Bud til Israels Konge og lod sige: »Vogt dig for at drage forbi det Sted, thi der ligger Aramæerne i Baghold!«
And he sent [the] man of God to [the] king of Israel saying take care from passing by the place this for there Aram [is] descending.
10 Israels Konge sendte da Folk til det Sted, den Guds Mand havde sagt ham. Saaledes mindede han ham om at være paa sin Post der; og det gjorde han ikke een, men flere Gange.
And he sent [the] king of Israel to the place which he had spoken to him [the] man of God (and he warned him *Q(K)*) and he took care there not one [time] and not two [times].
11 Derover blev Arams Konge urolig i sit Sind, og han lod sine Folk kalde og spurgte dem: »Han I ikke sige mig, hvem det er, der forraader os til Israels Konge?«
And it was enraged [the] heart of [the] king of Aram on the matter this and he called to servants his and he said to them ¿ not will you tell to me who? from [those] who [belong] to us [is] to [the] king of Israel.
12 Da sagde en af hans Hærførere: »Det er ingen af os, Herre Konge; det er Profeten Elisa i Israel, der lader Israels Konge vide, hvad du taler i dit Sovekammer.«
And he said one from servants his no O lord my the king for Elisha the prophet who [is] in Israel he tells to [the] king of Israel the words which you speak in [the] chamber of lying down your.
13 Da sagde han: »Gaa hen og se, hvor han er, for at jeg kan sende Folk ud og lade ham gribe!« Da det meldtes ham, at han var i Dotan,
And he said go and see where? [is] he so I may send so I may capture him and it was told to him saying there! in Dothan.
14 sendte han Heste og Vogne og en stor Hærstyrke derhen; og de kom ved Nattetide og omringede Byen.
And he sent there towards horses and chariotry and an army massive and they came night and they surrounded the city.
15 Næste Morgen tidlig, da den Guds Mand gik ud, se, da var Byen omringet af en Hær og Heste og Vogne, Da sagde hans Tjener til ham: »Ak, Herre, hvad skal vi dog gribe til?«
And he rose early [the] servant of [the] man of God to arise and he went out and there! an army [was] surrounding the city and horse[s] and chariotry and he said servant his to him alas! O lord my how? will we do.
16 Men han svarede: »Frygt ikke, thi de, der er med os, er flere end de, der er med dem!«
And he said may not you be afraid for [are] many [those] who [are] with us more than [those] who [are] them.
17 Og Elisa bad og sagde: »HERRE, luk hans Øjne op, saa han kan se!« Da lukkede HERREN Tjenerens Øjne op, og han saa, at Bjerget var fuldt af Ildheste og Ildvogne rundt om Elisa.
And he prayed Elisha and he said O Yahweh open please eyes his so he may see and he opened Yahweh [the] eyes of the servant and he saw and there! the hill it was full horses and chariotry of fire around Elisha.
18 Da nu Fjenderne rykkede ned imod ham, bad Elisa til HERREN og sagde: »Slaa de Folk med Blindhed!« Og han slog dem med Blindhed efter Elisas Ord.
And they came down to him and he prayed Elisha to Yahweh and he said strike please the nation this with sudden blindness and he struck them with sudden blindness according to [the] word of Elisha.
19 Da sagde Elisa til dem: »Det er ikke den rigtige Vej eller den rigtige By; følg med mig, saa skal jeg føre eder til den Mand, I søger!« Han førte dem saa til Samaria,
And he said to them Elisha not this [is] the way and not this [is] the city come after me so let me lead you to the man whom you seek! and he led them Samaria towards.
20 og da de var kommet ind i Samaria, bad Elisa: »Herre, luk nu deres Øjne op, saa at de kan se!« Da lukkede HERREN deres Øjne op, og de saa, at de var midt i Samaria.
And it was when came they Samaria and he said Elisha O Yahweh open [the] eyes of these [men] so they may see and he opened Yahweh eyes their and they saw and there! [they were] in [the] midst of Samaria.
21 Da Israels Konge saa dem, spurgte han Elisa: »Skal jeg hugge dem ned, min Fader?«
And he said [the] king of Israel to Elisha when saw he them ¿ will I strike [them] down will I strike [them] down? O father my.
22 Men han svarede: »Nej, du maa ikke hugge dem ned! Bruger du at hugge Folk ned, som du ikke har taget til Fange med Sværd eller Bue? Sæt Brød og Vand for dem, at de kan spise og drikke, og lad dem saa vende tilbage til deres Herre!«
And he said not you must strike [them] down ¿ [those] whom you have taken captive by sword your and by bow your [are] you about to strike down put food and water before them so they may eat and they may drink and they may go to master their.
23 Saa gav han dem et godt Maaltid, og da de havde spist og drukket, lod han dem gaa, og de drog tilbage til deres Herre. Men fra den Tid af kom der ikke flere aramaiske Strejfskarer i Israels Land.
And he gave a feast for them a feast great and they ate and they drank and he let go them and they went to master their and not they repeated again [the] marauding bands of Aram to come in [the] land of Israel.
24 Siden hændte det, at Kong Benhadad af Aram samlede hele sin Hær og drog op og belejrede Samaria;
And it was after thus and he gathered Ben Hadad [the] king of Aram all army his and he went up and he laid siege on Samaria.
25 og under Belejringen blev der stor Hungersnød i Byen, saa at et Æselhoved til sidst kostede tresindstyve Sekel Sølv og en Fjerdedel Kab Duegødning fem.
And it was a famine great in Samaria and there! [they were] laying siege on it until was [the] head of a donkey for eighty silver and [the] fourth part of the kab (quano *Q(K)*) for five silver.
26 Da Israels Konge en Dag gik oppe paa Bymuren, raabte en Kvinde til ham: »Hjælp, Herre Konge!«
And he was [the] king of Israel passing by on the wall and a woman she cried out to him saying save! O lord my the king.
27 Han svarede: »Hjælper HERREN dig ikke, hvor skal saa jeg skaffe dig Hjælp fra? Fra Tærskepladsen eller Vinpersen?«
And he said may not he save you Yahweh from where? will I save you ¿ from the threshing floor or? from the wine-press.
28 Og Kongen spurgte hende videre: »Hvad fattes dig?« Da sagde hun: »Den Kvinde der sagde til mig: Kom med din Dreng, saa fortærer vi ham i Dag; i Morgen vil vi saa fortære min Dreng!
And he said to her the king what? [is] to you and she said the woman this she said to me give son your so we may eat him this day and son my we will eat tomorrow.
29 Saa kogte vi min Dreng og fortærede ham. Næste Dag sagde jeg til hende: Kom nu med din Dreng, at vi kan fortære ham! Men hun holdt Drengen skjult.«
And we cooked son my and we ate him and I said to her on the day other give son your so we may eat him and she had hidden son her.
30 Da Kongen hørte Kvindens Ord, sønderrev han sine Klæder, som han stod der paa Muren; og Folket saa da, at han indenunder har Sæk paa den bare Krop.
And it was when heard the king [the] words of the woman and he tore clothes his and he [was] passing by on the wall and it saw the people and there! sackcloth [was] on flesh his from inside.
31 Og han sagde: »Gud ramme mig baade med det ene og det andet, om Elisas, Sjafats Søns, Hoved skal blive siddende mellem Skuldrene paa ham Dagen til Ende!«
And he said thus may he do to me God and thus may he add if it will remain standing [the] head of Elisha [the] son of Shaphat on him this day.
32 Elisa sad imidlertid i sit Hus sammen med de Ældste; da sendte Kongen en Mand i Forvejen. Men før Sendebudet kom til ham, sagde han til de Ældste: »Ved I, at denne Mordersjæl har sendt en Mand herhen for at tage mit Hoved? Se, naar Budet kommer, skal I lukke Døren og stemme jer imod den! Allerede hører jeg hans Herres Trin bag ham.«
And Elisha [was] sitting in house his and the elders [were] sitting with him and he sent a man from to before him before he came the messenger to him and he - he said to the elders ¿ do you see that he has sent [the] son of the murderer this to remove head my look - when comes the messenger shut the door and you will push him with the door ¿ not [is] [the] sound of [the] feet of master his after him.
33 Og medens han endnu talte med dem, kom Kongen ned til ham og sagde: »Se, hvilken Ulykke HERREN har bragt over os! Hvorfor skal jeg da bie længer paa HERREN?«
Still he [was] speaking with them and there! the messenger [was] coming down to him and he said here! this the calamity [is] from with Yahweh why? will I wait for Yahweh still.
