1 Samuel 13
1 Saul var....År ved sin Tronbestigelse, og han herskede i....År over Israel.
[was] a son of (Thirty *X*) year[s] Saul when became king he (and forty *X*) and two years he reigned over Israel.
2 Saul udvalgte sig 3000 Mand af Israel; af dem var 2000 hos Saul i Mikmas og i Bjergene ved Betel, 1000 hos Jonatan i Gibea i Benjamin; Resten af Krigerne lod han gå hver til sit.
And he chose for himself Saul three thousand from Israel and they were with Saul two thousand at Micmash and in [the] hill country of Beth-el and one thousand they were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin and [the] rest of the people he sent away each man to tents his.
3 Da fældede Jonatan Filisternes Foged i Geba. Det kom nu Filisterne for Øre, at Hebræerne havde revet sig løs. Men Saul havde ladet støde i Hornet hele Landet over,
And he attacked Jonathan [the] garrison of [the] Philistines which [was] at Geba and they heard [the] Philistines and Saul he gave a blast on the trumpet in all the land saying let them hear the Hebrews.
4 og hele Israel hørte, at Saul havde fældet Filisternes Foged, og at Israel havde vakt Filisternes Vrede. Og Folket stævnedes sammen i Gilgal til at følge Saul,
And all Israel they heard saying he has attacked Saul [the] garrison of [the] Philistines and also it has made itself odious Israel with the Philistines and they were summoned the people after Saul Gilgal.
5 men Filisterne havde samlet sig til Kamp mod Israel, 3000 Stridsvogne, 6000 Ryttere og Fodfolk så talrigt som Sandet ved Havets Bred, og de drog op og lejrede sig i Mikmas lige over for Bet-Aven.
And [the] Philistines they gathered - to fight with Israel thirty thousand chariot[s] and six thousand horsemen and a people like the sand which [is] on [the] shore of the sea for multitude and they came up and they encamped at Micmash [the] east of Beth Aven.
6 Da Israels Mænd skønnede, hvilken Fare de var i thi Folket blev trængt, skjulte Folket sig i Huler, Jordhuller, Klipperevner, Gruber og Cisterner
And everyone of Israel they saw that it was distress to it for it was hard pressed the people and they hid themselves the people in caves and in thickets and in cliffs and in underground chambers and in cisterns.
7 eller gik over Jordans Vadesteder til Gads og Gileads Land. Men Saul var endnu i Gilgal, og hele Folket fulgte ham med Frygt i Sind.
And Hebrews they passed over the Jordan [the] land of Gad and Gilead and Saul still he [was] at Gilgal and all the people they trembled after him.
8 Han ventede syv Dage til den Tid, Samuel havde fastsat; men Samuel kom ikke til Gilgal. Da Folket så spredte sig og forlod Saul,
(And he waited *Q(K)*) seven days to the appointed time which Samuel and not he had come Samuel Gilgal and it scattered the people from with him.
9 sagde han: "Bring Brændofferet og Takofrene hen til mig!" Så ofrede han Brændofferet.
And he said Saul bring near to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings and he offered up the burnt offering.
10 Men lige som han var færdig med at ofre Brændofferet, se, da kom Samuel, og Saul gik ham i Møde for at hilse på ham.
And it was when finished he to offer up the burnt offering and there! Samuel [was] coming and he went out Saul to meet him to bless him.
11 Da sagde Samuel: "Hvad har du gjort!" Saul svarede: "Jeg så, at Folket spredte sig og forlod mig, men du kom ikke til den fastsatte Tid, og Filisterne samlede sig ved Mikmas;
And he said Samuel what? have you done and he said Saul if I saw that it was scattered the people from with me and you not you had come to [the] appointed time of the days and [the] Philistines [were] gathering Micmash.
12 så tænkte jeg: Nu drager Filisterne ned til Gilgal imod mig, og jeg har endnu ikke vundet HERRENs Gunst; da tog jeg Mod til mig og bragte Brændofferet!"
And I said now they will come down [the] Philistines against me Gilgal and [the] face of Yahweh not I have entreated and I forced myself and I offered up the burnt offering.
13 Samuel sagde til Saul: "Tåbeligt har du handlet. Hvis du havde holdt den Befaling, HERREN din Gud gav dig, vilde HERREN nu have grundfæstet dit Kongedømme over Israel til evig Tid;
And he said Samuel to Saul you have acted foolishly not you have kept [the] commandment of Yahweh God your which he commanded you for now he established Yahweh kingdom your to Israel until perpetuity.
14 men nu skal dit Kongedømme ikke bestå. HERREN har udsøgt sig en Mand efter sit Hjerte, og ham har HERREN kaldet til Fyrste over sit Folk, fordi du ikke holdt, hvad HERREN bød dig!"
And now kingdom your not it will endure he has sought Yahweh for himself a man according to own heart his and he has appointed him Yahweh to ruler over people his for not you have kept [that] which he commanded you Yahweh.
15 Derpå brød Samuel op og gik bort fra Gilgal; men den tilbageblevne Del af Folket drog op i Følge med Saul for at støde til Krigerne, og de kom fra Gilgal til Gibea i Benjamin. Da mønstrede Saul de Folk, han havde hos sig, omtrent 600 Mand;
And he arose Samuel and he went up from Gilgal (and he went on way his and the rest of the people it went up after Saul to meet [the] people [of] the battle and they went from Gilgal *X*) Gibeah of Benjamin and he mustered Saul the people who were found with him about six hundred man.
16 og Saul og hans Søn Jonatan og de Folk, de havde hos sig, lå i Geba i Benjamin, medens Filisterne lå lejret i Mikmas.
And Saul and Jonathan son his and the people which was found with them [were] remaining in Geba of Benjamin and [the] Philistines they encamped in Micmash.
17 Fra Filisternes Lejr drog så en Skare ud i tre Afdelinger for at plyndre; den ene Afdeling drog i Retning af Ofra til Sjualegnen,
And it came out the destroyer from [the] camp of [the] Philistines three companies the company one it turned to [the] direction of Ophrah to [the] land of Shual.
18 den anden i Retning af Bet Horon og den tredje i Retning af den Høj, som rager op over Zeboimdalen, ad Ørkenen til.
And the company one it turned [the] direction of Beth Horon and the company one it turned [the] direction the border which looks down over [the] valley of Zeboim the wilderness towards.
19 Men der fandtes ingen Smede i hele Israels Land; thi Filisterne havde tænkt, at Hebræerne ellers kunde lave sig Sværd og Spyd;
And a craftsman not he was found in all [the] land of Israel for (they said *Q(K)*) [the] Philistines lest they should make the Hebrews a sword or a spear.
20 derfor måtte hele Israel drage ned til Filisterne for at få hvæsset deres Plovjern, Hakker, Økser eller Pigkæppe;
And they went down all Israel the Philistines to sharpen each man plowshare his and mattock his and axe his and plowshare his.
21 det kostede en Pim at få slebet Plovjem og Hakker og en Tredjedel Sekel for Økser og for at indsætte Pig.
And it was the charge two thirds of a shekel for the plowshares and for the mattocks and for three fork and for the axes and to make straight the goad[s].
22 Således fandtes der, den Dag Slaget stod ved Mikmas, hverken Sværd eller Spyd hos nogen af Krigerne, som var hos Saul og Jonatan; kun Saul og hans Søn Jonatan havde Våben.
And it was on a day of battle and not it was found a sword and a spear in [the] hand of any of the people which [was] with Saul and with Jonathan and it was found to Saul and to Jonathan son his.
23 Filisternes Forpost rykkede frem til Mikmaspasset.
And it came out [the] garrison of [the] Philistines to [the] pass of Micmash.
