< 1 Chronicles 11 >

1 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.

Så kom hele Israel sammen hos David i Hebron og sa: Vi er jo av samme kjød og blod som du.

2 In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. The LORD your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”

Allerede for lenge siden, ennu mens Saul var konge, var det du som førte Israel ut og inn, og Herren din Gud sa til dig: Du skal vokte mitt folk Israel, og du skal være fyrste over mitt folk Israel.

3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD. They anointed David king over Israel, according to the LORD’s word by Samuel.

Og alle Israels eldste kom til kongen i Hebron, og David gjorde en pakt med dem i Hebron for Herrens åsyn; og de salvet David til konge over Israel efter Herrens ord ved Samuel.

4 David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.

Så drog David og hele Israel til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; der bodde jebusittene, landets oprinnelige innbyggere.

5 The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.

Og innbyggerne i Jebus sa til David: Du kommer aldri inn her. Men David inntok Sions borg - det er Davids stad.

6 David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.

Og David sa: Den som først slår jebusittene, skal bli høvding og fører. Og Joab, Serujas sønn, steg først op og blev høvding.

7 David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.

David tok sin bolig i borgen; derfor kaltes den Davids stad.

8 He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.

Og han bygget byen rundt omkring, fra Millo og rundt omkring, og Joab bygget resten av byen op igjen.

9 David grew greater and greater, for the LORD of Armies was with him.

David blev større og større, og Herren, hærskarenes Gud, var med ham.

10 Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the LORD’s word concerning Israel.

Dette er de ypperste blandt Davids helter, som sammen med hele Israel kraftig støtet ham i hans kongedømme for å gjøre ham til konge efter Herrens ord om Israel.

11 This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.

Dette er Davids helter, så mange de var: Jasobam, Hakmonis sønn, høvedsmann for drabantene; han svang sitt spyd over tre hundre falne på en gang.

12 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.

Efter ham kom Eleasar, sønn av ahohitten Dodo; han var en av de tre helter.

13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.

Han var med David i Pas-Dammim da filistrene hadde samlet sig der til strid. Der var et jorde som var fullt av bygg, og da folket flyktet for filistrene,

14 They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.

stilte de sig midt på jordet og berget det og slo filistrene; og Herren gav dem en stor seier.

15 Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

Engang drog tre av de tretti høvdinger ned efter berget til David, som var i hulen ved Adullam. Filistrenes hær lå da i leir i Refa'im dalen.

16 David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.

David var dengang selv i borgen, og filistrenes forpost var i Betlehem.

17 David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”

Så kom det en brå lyst over David, og han sa: Hvem lar mig få vann å drikke av den brønn som er ved porten i Betlehem?

18 The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to the LORD,

Da brøt de tre sig igjennem filistrenes leir og øste vann op av brønnen ved Betlehems port og tok det med sig og kom til David med det; men David vilde ikke drikke det - han øste det ut for Herren.

19 and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.

Og han sa: Min Gud, la det være langt fra mig å gjøre dette! Skulde jeg drikke disse menns blod, som har satt sitt liv i fare? For med fare for sitt liv har de båret det hit. Og han vilde ikke drikke det. Dette gjorde de tre helter.

20 Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.

Så var det Absai, bror til Joab; han var fører for de tre. Han svang sitt spyd over tre hundre falne; og han hadde et navn blandt de tre.

21 Of the three, he was more honorable than the two, and was made their captain; however he was not included in the three.

Fremfor de tre var han dobbelt æret og blev deres høvding; men til de tre nådde han ikke op.

22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.

Så var det Benaja, sønn av Jojada, som var sønn av en djerv seierrik stridsmann fra Kabse'el; han slo Moabs to løvehelter. En dag det hadde snedd, steg han ned i en brønn og slo en løve ihjel.

23 He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.

Likeledes slo han ihjel en egypter, en mann som var fem alen lang; egypteren hadde et spyd som en veverstang i hånden; men han gikk ned mot ham med sin stav og rev spydet ut av hånden på egypteren og drepte ham med hans eget spyd.

24 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name among the three mighty men.

Dette gjorde Benaja, Jojadas sønn; han hadde et navn blandt de tre helter.

25 Behold, he was more honorable than the thirty, but he did not attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.

Fremfor de tretti var han æret, men til de tre nådde han ikke op. David gav ham plass blandt sine fortrolige rådgivere.

26 The mighty men of the armies also include Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,

De djerveste i hæren var: Asael, bror til Joab; Elhanan, Dodos sønn, fra Betlehem;

27 Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

haroritten Sammot; pelonitten Heles;

28 Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Anathothite,

teko'itten Ira, sønn av Ikkes; anatotitten Abieser;

29 Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite,

husatitten Sibbekai; ahohitten Ilai;
