2 Samuel 15
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared for him a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Pripetilo se je po tem, da si je Absalom pripravil vozove, konje in petdeset mož, da so tekli pred njim.
2 And Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate. And it was so, that, when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, Of what city are thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.
Absalom je vstajal zgodaj in stal poleg poti velikih vrat in to je bilo tako, da ko je katerikoli človek imel polemiko, je prišel h kralju za sodbo, potem mu je Absalom zaklical in rekel: »Iz katerega mesta si?« In ta je rekel: »Tvoj služabnik je iz enega izmed Izraelovih rodov.«
3 And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters are good and right, but there is no man appointed by the king to hear thee.
Absalom mu je rekel: »Poglej, tvoje zadeve so dobre in pravilne; toda tam ni nobenega človeka, poslanega od kralja, da te sliši.«
4 Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any suit or case might come to me, and I would do for him justice!
Poleg tega je Absalom rekel: »Oh da bi mene postavili za sodnika v deželi, da bi vsak človek, ki ima kakršnokoli tožbo ali zadevo, lahko prišel k meni in bi mu jaz storil pravico!«
5 And it was so, that, when any man came near to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
In to je bilo tako, da ko je katerikoli moški prišel blizu k njemu, da se mu globoko prikloni, je svojo roko iztegnil naprej, ga prijel in ga poljubil.
6 And on this manner Absalom did to all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Na ta način je Absalom počel vsemu Izraelu, ki so hodili h kralju po sodbo. Tako je Absalom kradel srca Izraelovih mož.
7 And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to Jehovah, in Hebron.
Pripetilo se je po štiridesetih letih, da je Absalom rekel kralju: »Prosim te, naj grem in izpolnim svojo zaobljubo, ki sem jo zaobljubil Gospodu v Hebrónu.
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If Jehovah shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah.
Kajti tvoj služabnik se je zaobljubil, medtem ko je prebival pri Gešurju v Siriji, rekoč: ›Če me bo Gospod zares ponovno privedel v Jeruzalem, potem bom služil Gospodu.‹«
9 And the king said to him, Go in peace. So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Kralj mu je rekel: »Pojdi v miru.« Tako je vstal in odšel v Hebrón.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom is king in Hebron.
Toda Absalom je poslal oglednike po vseh Izraelovih rodovih, rekoč: »Takoj ko zaslišite zvok šofarja, potem boste rekli: ›Absalom kraljuje v Hebrónu.‹«
11 And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem who were invited, and went in their simplicity. And they did not know anything.
Z Absalomom je iz Jeruzalema odšlo dvesto mož, ki so bili poklicani. Odšli pa so v svoji toposti in niso vedeli nobene stvari.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Absalom je poslal po Gilčana Ahitófela, Davidovega svetovalca, iz njegovega mesta, torej iz Gila, medtem ko je daroval klavne daritve. In zarota je bila močna, kajti ljudstvo je nenehno naraščalo z Absalomom.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
K Davidu je prišel poslanec, rekoč: »Srca Izraelovih mož sledijo Absalomu.«
14 And David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee, for otherwise none of us shall escape from Absalom. Make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
David je rekel vsem svojim služabnikom, ki so bili z njim pri Jeruzalemu: »Vstanimo in pobegnimo, kajti sicer ne bomo pobegnili pred Absalomom. Pohitimo, da nas ne bi nenadoma dohitel in nad nas privedel zla in mesto udaril z ostrino meča.«
15 And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king shall choose.
Kraljevi služabniki so rekli kralju: »Glej, tvoji služabniki so pripravljeni storiti, karkoli bo moj gospod kralj določil.«
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the house.
Kralj je odšel naprej in vsa njegova družina za njim. Kralj pa je pustil deset žensk, ki so bile priležnice, da varujejo hišo.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and they remained in Beth-merhak.
Kralj je odšel naprej in vse ljudstvo za njim in se mudil na kraju, ki je bil daleč proč.
18 And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Vsi njegovi služabniki so šli poleg njega in vsi Keretéjci in vsi Péletovci in vsi Gitéjci, šeststo mož, ki so prišli za njim iz Gata, so prečkali pred kraljem.
19 Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why do thou also go with us? Return, and abide with the king, for thou are a foreigner, and also an exile. Return to thine own place.
Potem je kralj rekel Gitéjcu Itáju: »Čemu greš tudi ti z nami? Vrni se na svoj kraj in prebivaj s kraljem, kajti tujec si in tudi izgnanec.
20 Whereas thou came but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go where I may? Return thou, and take back thy brothers. Mercy and truth be with thee.
Glede na to, da si prišel šele včeraj, ali naj te ta dan pripravim hoditi z nami gor in dol? Ker grem, kamor lahko, se vrni in svoje brate vzemi nazaj. Usmiljenje in resnica naj bosta s teboj.«
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said, As Jehovah lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there thy servant will also be.
Itáj je odgovoril kralju in rekel: » Kakor živi Gospod in kakor živi moj gospod kralj, zagotovo, na kateremkoli kraju bo moj gospod kralj, bodisi v smrti ali življenju, celo tam bo tudi tvoj služabnik.«
22 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
David je rekel Itáju: »Pojdi in prečkaj.« Gitéjec Itáj je šel čez in vsi njegovi možje in vsi malčki, ki so bili z njim.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The king himself also passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over toward the way of the wilderness.
In vsa dežela je jokala z močnim glasom in vse ljudstvo je šlo čez. Tudi sam kralj je šel čez potok Kidron in vse ljudstvo je šlo čez, proti poti divjine.
24 And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up until all the people had finished passing out of the city.
Glej, tudi Cadók in vsi Lévijevci so bili z njim, nesoč skrinjo Božje zaveze in odložili so Božjo skrinjo. Abjatár je odšel gor, dokler ni vse ljudstvo šlo iz mesta.
25 And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city. If I shall find favor in the eyes of Jehovah he will bring me again, and show me both it, and his habitation.
Kralj je Cadóku rekel: »Božjo skrinjo odnesite nazaj v mesto. Če bom našel naklonjenost v Gospodovih očeh, me bo ponovno privedel in mi pokazal oboje, to in njeno prebivališče,
26 But if he says thus, I have no delight in thee, behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.
toda če reče tako: ›Nimam veselja v tebi; ‹ glej, tukaj sem, naj mi stori, kakor se mu zdi dobro.«
27 The king said also to Zadok the priest, Are thou not a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Kralj je tudi rekel duhovniku Cadóku: » Mar nisi ti videc? V miru se vrni v mesto in tvoja dva sinova s teboj, tvoj sin Ahimáac in Jonatan, Abjatárjev sin.
28 See, I will remain at the fords of the wilderness until there comes word from you to report to me.
Glejte, mudil se bom na ravnini divjine, dokler ne bo prišla od vas beseda, da me potrdite.«
29 Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem, and they abode there.
Torej Cadók in Abjatár sta Božjo skrinjo ponovno odnesla v Jeruzalem in ostala sta tam.
30 And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up, and he had his head covered, and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
David je odšel gor po pobočju Oljske gore in jokal, ko se je vzpenjal in svojo glavo je imel pokrito in hodil je bos. Vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, je vsak pokril svojo glavo in hodili so gor in jokali, medtem ko so hodili gor.
31 And it was told David, saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O Jehovah, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.
In nekdo je povedal Davidu, rekoč: »Ahitófel je z Absalomom med zarotniki.« David je rekel: »Oh Gospod, prosim te, obrni Ahitófelov nasvet v norost.«
32 And it came to pass, that, when David came to the top of the ascent, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and dirt upon his head.
Pripetilo se je, da ko je David prišel na vrh gore, kjer je oboževal Boga, glej, je prišel Arkéjec Hušáj, da ga sreča, s svojim pretrganim plaščem in zemljo na svoji glavi,
33 And David said to him, If thou pass on with me, then thou will be a burden to me,
ki mu je David rekel: »Če greš z menoj naprej, potem mi boš v breme,
34 but if thou return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king. As I have been thy father's servant in time past, so I will now be thy servant, then thou will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
toda če se vrneš k mestu in rečeš Absalomu: ›Jaz bom tvoj služabnik, oh kralj, kakor sem bil doslej služabnik tvojega očeta, tako bom sedaj tudi tvoj služabnik, ‹ potem boš lahko zame premagal Ahitófelov nasvet.
35 And have thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? Therefore it shall be, that whatever thing thou shall hear out of the king's house, thou shall tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
In ali nisi tam z duhovnikoma Cadókom in Abjatárjem? Zato naj bo, da kakršnokoli stvar boš slišal iz kraljeve hiše, boš to povedal duhovnikoma Cadóku in Abjatárju.
36 Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son. And by them ye shall send to me everything that ye shall hear.
Glej, onadva imata tam s seboj svoja dva sinova, Cadókovega sina Ahimáaca in Abjatárjevega sina Jonatana. Po njima boste poslali k meni vsako stvar, ki jo lahko slišite.«
37 So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Tako je Davidov prijatelj Hušáj prišel v mesto in Absalom je prišel v Jeruzalem.
