< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 Derefter raadspurgte David HERREN: »Skal jeg drage op til en af Judas Byer?« HERREN svarede: »Gør det!« Og David spurgte: »Hvor skal jeg drage hen?« Da svarede han: »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 derop tillige med sine to Hustruer Ahinoam fra Jizre'el og Abigajil, Karmeliten 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 og han tog sine Mænd med derop tillige med deres Familier, og de bosatte sig i Byerne omkring Hebron.
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 Da kom Judas Mænd derhen og salvede David til Konge over Judas Hus. Da David fik at vide, at Mændene i Jabesj i Gilead havde jordet 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 sendte han Sendebud til Mændene i Jabesj i Gilead og lod sige: »HERREN velsigne eder, fordi I saaledes viste Godhed mod eders Herre Saul og jordede 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 Maatte nu HERREN vise eder Godhed og Trofasthed! Men ogsaa jeg vil gøre godt imod eder, fordi I gjorde dette.
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 Tag eder derfor sammen og vis eder som stærke Mænd; thi eders Herre Saul er død, og Judas Hus har allerede salvet mig til Konge!«
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, Sauls Hærfører, tog Sauls Søn Isjbosjet og bragte ham over til Mahanajim
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 udraabte ham til Konge over Gilead, Aseriterne, Jizre'el, Efraim og Benjamin, over hele 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 Isjbosjet, Sauls Søn, var fyrretyve Aar, da han blev Konge over Israel, og han herskede to Aar. Kun Judas Hus sluttede sig til 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 Den Tid David herskede 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 Abner, Ners Søn, drog med Isjbosjets, Sauls Søns, Folk fra Mahanajim 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 ligeledes drog Joab, Zerujas Søn ud med Davids Folk, og de stødte sammen med dem ved Dammen i Gibeon; og de slog sig ned hver paa sin 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 Da sagde Abner til Joab: »Lad de unge Mænd staa op og udføre Vaaben lege for os!« Og Joab sagde: »Ja, lad dem staa op!«
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 stod de op og gik frem lige mange fra hver Side, tolv Benjaminiter for Isjbosjet, Sauls Søn, og tolv af Davids Folk;
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 men de greb hverandre om Hovedet og stødte Sværdet i Siden paa hverandre, saa de faldt alle til Hobe. Derfor kalder man dette Sted Helkat-Hazzurim; det ligger 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 Samme Dag kom det til en meget haard Kamp, i hvilken Abner og Israels Mænd blev drevet paa Flugt af Davids Folk.
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 Ved den Lejlighed var Zerujas tre Sønner med, Joab, Abisjaj og Asa'el; og Asa'el, der var rapfodet som Markens Gazeller,
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 forfulgte Abner uden at bøje af til højre eller venstre.
And he pursued Asahel after Abner and not he turned aside to go to the right and to the left from after Abner.
20 Abner vendte sig om og spurgte: »Er det dig, Asa'el?« Han svarede: »Ja, det er!«
And he turned Abner behind him and he said ¿ you [is] this O Asahel and he said I.
21 Da sagde Abner: »Bøj af til en af Siderne, grib en af de unge Mænd og tag dig hans Rustning!« Men Asa'el vilde ikke opgive at forfølge 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 sagde Abner videre til Asa'el: »Stands med at forfølge mig! Hvorfor skal jeg slaa dig til Jorden? Og hvorledes skal jeg saa kunne se din Broder Joab i Øjnene?«
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 standse, og Abner stødte da baglæns Spydet gennem Underlivet paa ham, saa det kom ud af Ryggen, og han faldt død om paa Stedet. Og alle, som kom til Stedet, hvor Asa'el laa og var død, stod 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 Abisjaj forfulgte Abner, og da Solen gik ned, havde de naaet Gibeat-Amma, som ligger østen for Gia ved Vejen til Gibeons Ørken.
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 Da samlede Benjaminiterne sig om Abner og stillede sig i Klynge paa Toppen af Gibeat-Amma.
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 Men Abner raabte til Joab: »Skal da Sværdet altid blive ved at fortære? Ved du ikke, at Eftersmagen er besk? Hvor længe skal det vare, inden du byder Folket standse med 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 Joab svarede: »Saa sandt HERREN lever: Havde du ikke talt, vilde Folkene først i Morgen have standset med at forfølge deres Brødre!«
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 Derpaa stødte Joab i Hornet, og hele Folket standsede; de forfulgte ikke mere Israel og fortsatte ikke Kampen.
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 Abner og hans Mænd vandrede saa i Løbet af Natten igennem Arabalavningen, satte over Jordan, gik hele Kløften igennem og kom til Mahanajim.
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 Da Joab vendte tilbage fra Forfølgelsen af Abner og samlede alle Krigerne, savnedes foruden Asa'el nitten Mand af Davids Folk,
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 medens Davids Folk havde slaaet 360 Mand ihjel af Benjaminiterne, Abners Folk.
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 Derpaa bar de Asa'el bort og jordede ham i hans Faders Grav i Betlehem, og Joab og hans Mænd vandrede hele Natten igennem; da Solen stod op, naaede de 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.
