1 Samuel 2
1 And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart exults in Jehovah. My horn is exalted in Jehovah. My mouth is enlarged over my enemies because I rejoice in thy salvation.
Ana je molila in rekla: »Moje srce se razveseljuje v Gospodu, moj rog je povišan v Gospodu. Moja usta so povečana nad mojimi sovražniki, ker se veselim v tvoji rešitvi duše.
2 There is none holy as Jehovah, for there is none besides thee, neither is there any rock like our God.
Nihče ni svet kakor Gospod, kajti nikogar ni poleg tebe. Niti ni nobene skale, podobne našemu Bogu.
3 Talk no more so very proudly. Let not arrogancy come out of your mouth, for Jehovah is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.
Ne govorite več tako silno ponosno, naj aroganca ne pride iz vaših ust, kajti Gospod je Bog spoznanja in pri njem so tehtana dejanja.
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and those who stumbled are girded with strength.
Loki mogočnih mož so zlomljeni in tisti, ki so se spotaknili, so opasani z močjo.
5 Those who were full have hired out themselves for bread, and those who were hungry have ceased to hunger. Yea, the barren has borne seven, and she who has many sons languishes.
Tisti, ki so bili siti, so se dali v najem zaradi kruha; tisti, ki so bili lačni, so oslabeli, tako, da je jalova rodila sedmero in tista, ki ima mnogo otrok, je postala slabotna.
Gospod ubija in oživlja. Privede dol do groba in privede gor. (Sheol h7585)
7 Jehovah makes poor, and makes rich. He brings low, he also lifts up.
Gospod dela revne in dela bogate, ponižuje in povzdiguje.
8 He raises up the poor out of the dust, he lifts up the needy from the dunghill, to make them sit with rulers, and inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's, and he has set the world upon them.
Revnega vzdiguje iz prahu in berača povzdiguje iz gnojišča, da ju posadi med prince in jima stori, da podedujeta prestol slave, kajti stebri zemlje so Gospodovi in nanje je postavil zemeljski [krog].
9 He will keep the feet of his holy ones, but the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness, for by strength no man shall prevail.
Varoval bo stopala svojih svetih in zlobni bodo tiho v temi, kajti noben človek ne bo prevladal z močjo.
10 Those who strive with Jehovah shall be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in heaven. Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth, and he will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
Gospodovi nasprotniki bodo zlomljeni na koščke. Iz nebes bo zagrmel nad njimi. Gospod bo sodil konce zemlje; moč bo dal svojemu kralju in povišal rog svojega maziljenca.«
11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house, and the child ministered to Jehovah before Eli the priest.
Elkaná je odšel v Ramo, k svoji hiši. Otrok pa je služil Gospodu pred duhovnikom Élijem.
12 Now the sons of Eli were base men; they knew not Jehovah.
Torej Élijeva sinova sta bila Beliálova sinova; onadva nista poznala Gospoda.
13 And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his hand,
In običaj duhovnikov z ljudstvom je bil, da ko je katerikoli mož daroval klavno daritev, je prišel duhovnikov služabnik, medtem ko je meso vrelo, s kavljem za meso, s tremi zobmi, v svoji roki;
14 and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot. All that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took with it. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.
in to zabodel v ponev ali kotliček ali kotel ali lonec; vse, kar so kavlji za meso prinesli gor, je duhovnik vzel zase. Tako sta počela v Šilu vsem Izraelcem, ki so prihajali tja.
15 And before they burned the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man who sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, for he will not have boiled flesh from thee, but raw.
Tudi preden so sežgali tolščo, je prišel duhovnikov služabnik in rekel možu, ki je daroval: »Izroči meso za pečenje duhovniku, kajti od tebe ne bo imel kuhanega mesa, temveč surovega.«
16 And if the man said to him, They will surely burn the fat first, and then take as much as thy soul desires, then he would say, No, but thou shall give it to me now, and if not, I will take it by force.
Če pa bi mu katerikoli moški rekel: »Naj ne izpustijo, da sedaj zažgejo tolščo, potem pa vzemi, kolikor si želi tvoja duša; « Potem bi mu odgovoril: » Ne, temveč mi boš to dal sedaj. Če pa ne, bom to vzel s silo.«
17 And the sin of the young men was very great before Jehovah, for the men despised the offering of Jehovah.
Zato je bil greh mladeničev zelo velik pred Gospodom, kajti moža sta prezirala Gospodovo daritev.
18 But Samuel ministered before Jehovah, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
Toda Samuel je služil pred Gospodom, ko je bil še otrok, opasan z lanenim efódom.
19 Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
Poleg tega mu je mati iz leta v leto izdelala majhen plašč in ga prinesla k njemu, ko je prišla gor s svojim soprogom, da daruje letno klavno daritev.
20 And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Jehovah give thee seed by this woman for the petition which was asked of Jehovah. And they went to their own home.
Éli je blagoslovil Elkaná in njegovo ženo ter rekel: » Gospod ti daj seme od te ženske, zaradi posojila, ki je posojen Gospodu.« In odšli so na svoj dom.
21 And Jehovah visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Jehovah.
Gospod je obiskal Ano, tako da je spočela in rodila [še] tri sinove in dve hčeri. Otrok Samuel pa je rasel pred Gospodom.
22 Now Eli was very old. And he heard all that his sons did to all Israel, and how that they lay with the women who assembled at the door of the tent of meeting.
Torej Éli je bil zelo star in slišal vse, kar sta njegova sinova počela vsemu Izraelu in kako sta ležala z ženskami, ki so se zbirale pri vratih šotorskega svetišča skupnosti.
23 And he said to them, Why do ye such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all this people.
Rekel jima je: »Zakaj počneta takšne stvari? Kajti od vsega ljudstva slišim o vajinih zlih postopanjih.
24 No, my sons, for it is no good report that I hear. Ye make Jehovah's people to transgress.
Ne, moja sinova, kajti to ni dober glas, ki ga slišim. Vidva povzročata Gospodovemu ljudstvu, da greši.
25 If one man sins against another, God shall judge him, but if a man sins against Jehovah, who shall entreat for him? Notwithstanding, they did not hearken to the voice of their father, because Jehovah intended to kill them.
Če en mož greši zoper drugega, ga bo sodil sodnik, toda če mož greši zoper Gospoda, kdo bo posredoval zanj.« Vendar nista prisluhnila glasu svojega očeta, ker ju je Gospod hotel ubiti.
26 And the child Samuel grew on, and increased in favor both with Jehovah, and also with men.
Otrok Samuel pa je rasel in bil je v naklonjenosti tako z Gospodom kakor tudi z ljudmi.
27 And there came a man of God to Eli, and said to him, Thus says Jehovah, Did I reveal myself to the house of thy father when they were in Egypt in bondage to Pharaoh's house?
K Éliju je prišel Božji mož ter mu rekel: »Tako govori Gospod: ›Ali sem se očitno prikazal hiši tvojega očeta, ko so bili v Egiptu, v faraonovi hiši?
28 And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? And did I give to the house of thy father all the offerings of the sons of Israel made by fire?
In ali sem ga izbral izmed vseh Izraelovih rodov, da bo moj duhovnik, da daruje na mojem oltarju, da zažiga kadilo, da nosi efód pred menoj? In ali sem dal hiši tvojega očeta vse daritve, narejene z ognjem, Izraelovih otrok?
29 Why do ye kick at my sacrifice and at my offering, which I have commanded in my habitation, and honor thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chief of all the offerings of Israel my people?
Zakaj brcate ob mojo klavno daritev in ob mojo daritev, ki sem jo zapovedal v svojem prebivališču in svoja sinova bolj častiš kakor mene, da ste se odebelili z glavnimi izmed vseh daritev Izraela, mojega ljudstva?‹
30 Therefore Jehovah, the God of Israel, says, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me forever, but now Jehovah says, Be it far from me, for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
Zato govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Zares sem rekel, da naj bi tvoja hiša in hiša tvojega očeta hodili pred menoj na veke.‹ Toda sedaj govori Gospod: ›To bodi daleč od mene, kajti tiste, ki spoštujejo mene, bom jaz spoštoval in tisti, ki me prezirajo, bodo prezirani.
31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
Glej, pridejo dnevi, ko bom odsekal tvoj laket in laket hiše tvojega očeta, da v tvoji hiši ne bo starca.
32 And thou shall see an enemy in my habitation, in all that I shall give Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house forever.
In ti boš videl sovražnika v mojem prebivališču v vsem bogastvu, ki ga bo Bog dal Izraelu, in v tvoji hiši na veke ne bo starca.
33 And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from my altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart. And all the increase of thy house shall die in the flower of their age.
Moški od tebe, ki ga ne bom odsekal izpred svojega oltarja, bo [preostal], da použije tvoje oči in da žalosti tvoje srce in ves narast tvoje hiše bo umrl v cvetu njihove starosti.
34 And this shall be the sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: In one day they shall die, both of them.
To ti bo znamenje, ki bo prišlo nad tvoja dva sinova, na Hofníja in Pinhása; v enem dnevu bosta oba izmed njiju umrla.
35 And I will raise up for me a faithful priest who shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind. And I will build for him a sure house, and he shall walk before my anointed forever.
Jaz pa si bom dvignil zvestega duhovnika, ki bo delal glede na to, kar je v mojem srcu in v mojem umu in zgradil mu bom zanesljivo hišo; in ta bo hodil pred mojim maziljencem na veke.
36 And it shall come to pass, that everyone who is left in thy house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices that I may eat a morsel of bread.
Zgodilo se bo, da bo vsak, kdor preostane v tvoji hiši, prišel in klečeplazil k njemu za košček srebra in grižljaj kruha in rekel bo: ›Postavi me, prosim te, v eno izmed duhovniških služb, da bom lahko jedel kos kruha.‹«
