2 Samuel 19
1 Joab was told, “Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.”
To je bilo povedano Joábu: »Glej, kralj joka in žaluje za Absalomom.«
2 The victory that day was turned into mourning among all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king grieves for his son.”
Zmaga tega dne je bila obrnjena v žalovanje vsemu ljudstvu, kajti ljudstvo je tisti dan slišalo govoriti, kako je bil kralj užaloščen zaradi svojega sina.
3 The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
Ljudstvo se je tisti dan skrivoma spravilo v mesto, kakor se ljudstvo, ki je osramočeno, odplazi, ko v boju zbeži.
4 The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
Toda kralj je pokril svoj obraz in kralj je jokal z močnim glasom: »Oh moj sin Absalom, oh Absalom, moj sin, moj sin!«
5 Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all your servants who today have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;
Joáb je prišel v hišo h kralju in rekel: »Ta dan si osramotil obraze vseh svojih služabnikov, ki so ta dan rešili tvoje življenje in življenja tvojih sinov in tvojih hčera in življenja tvojih soprog in življenja tvojih priležnic,
6 in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.
v tem, da ti ljubiš svoje sovražnike in sovražiš svoje prijatelje. Kajti ta dan si oznanil, da se ne oziraš niti na prince niti na služabnike, kajti ta dan zaznavam, da če bi Absalom živel in bi ta dan mi vsi umrli, potem bi ti to dobro ugajalo.
7 Now therefore arise, go out and speak to comfort your servants; for I swear by the LORD, if you do not go out, not a man will stay with you this night. That would be worse to you than all the evil that has happened to you from your youth until now.”
Zdaj torej vstani, pojdi naprej in tolažilno govori svojim služabnikom, kajti prisegam pri Gospodu, če ne greš naprej, to noč nobeden ne bo ostal s teboj in huje ti bo kakor vse zlo, ki te je zadelo od tvoje mladosti do sedaj.«
8 Then the king arose and sat in the gate. The people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” All the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
Potem je kralj vstal in se usedel pri velikih vratih. In vsemu ljudstvu so povedali, rekoč: »Glejte, kralj sedi pri velikih vratih.« Vse ljudstvo je prišlo pred kralja, kajti Izrael je zbežal vsak mož k svojemu šotoru.
9 All the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
Vse ljudstvo je bilo nesložno po vseh Izraelovih rodovih, rekoč: »Kralj nas je rešil iz roke naših sovražnikov in nas osvobodil iz roke Filistejcev; sedaj pa je zaradi Absaloma pobegnil iz dežele.
10 Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why do not you speak a word of bringing the king back?”
Absalom, ki smo ga mazilili nad seboj, je mrtev v bitki. Zdaj torej, zakaj ne spregovorite besedo o privedbi kralja nazaj?«
11 King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house?
Kralj David je poslal k duhovnikoma Cadóku in Abjatárju, rekoč: »Govorita Judovim starešinam, rekoč: ›Zakaj ste zadnji, da bi privedli kralja nazaj v njegovo hišo, glede na to, da je govor vsega Izraela prišel do kralja, celó k njegovi hiši.
12 You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’
Vi ste moji bratje, vi ste moje kosti in moje meso. Zakaj ste potem zadnji, da kralja pripeljete nazaj?‹
13 Say to Amasa, ‘Are not you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you are not captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’”
In Amasáju recite: › Ali nisi ti od moje kosti in od mojega mesa? Bog naj mi tako stori in še več, če ne boš nenehno pred menoj poveljnik vojske na Joábovem položaju.‹«
14 He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.”
In nagnil je srce vseh Judovih mož, celo kakor srce enega človeka, tako da so kralju poslali to besedo: »Vrni se ti in vsi tvoji služabniki.«
15 So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
Tako se je kralj vrnil in prišel k Jordanu. In Juda je prišel v Gilgál, da gre, da sreča kralja, da spremi kralja čez Jordan.
16 Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
In Šimí, Gerájev sin, Benjaminovec, ki je bil iz Bahuríma, je pohitel in prišel dol z Judovimi možmi, da sreča kralja Davida.
17 There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul’s house, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
Tam je bilo z njim tisoč mož iz Benjamina in Cibá, služabnik Savlove hiše in njegovih petnajst sinov in njegovih dvajset služabnikov z njim in pred kraljem so šli čez Jordan.
18 A ferry boat went to bring over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had come over the Jordan.
Tam je šla čez rečna ladja, da prenese čez kraljevo družino in da stori, kar se mu je zdelo dobro. Gerájev sin Šimí pa je padel dol pred kraljem, ko je ta hotel iti čez Jordan
19 He said to the king, “Do not let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
in kralju rekel: »Naj moj gospod krivičnosti ne pripiše meni niti se ne spominjaj tega, kar je tvoj služabnik sprevrženo storil tistega dne, ko je moj gospod kralj odšel iz Jeruzalema, da bi si to kralj vzel k srcu.
20 For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore behold, I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
Kajti tvoj služabnik ve, da sem grešil. Glej, zato sem ta dan prvi prišel iz vse Jožefove hiše, da grem dol, da srečam svojega gospoda kralja.«
21 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered, “Should not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD’s anointed?”
Toda Cerújin sin Abišáj je odgovoril in rekel: »Ali ne bo Šimí usmrčen zaradi tega, ker je preklinjal Gospodovega maziljenca?«
22 David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For do not I know that I am king over Israel today?”
David pa je rekel: »Kaj imam z vama, vidva, Cerújina sinova, da bi mi bila ta dan nasprotnika? Ali naj bo ta dan kdorkoli usmrčen v Izraelu? Kajti ali ne vem, da sem ta dan kralj nad Izraelom?«
23 The king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” The king swore to him.
Zato je kralj rekel Šimíju: »Ne boš umrl.« In kralj mu je prisegel.
24 Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither groomed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
Savlov sin Mefibóšet je prišel dol, da sreča kralja in niti ni obul svojih stopal, niti ni postrigel svoje brade, niti ni umil svojih oblačil od dneva, ko je kralj odpotoval, do dneva, ko je ponovno prišel v miru.
25 When he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why did not you go with me, Mephibosheth?”
Pripetilo se je, ko je prišel v Jeruzalem, da sreča kralja, da mu je kralj rekel: »Zakaj nisi šel z menoj, Mefibóšet?«
26 He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.
Ta je odgovoril: »Moj gospod, oh kralj, moj služabnik me je zavedel, kajti tvoj služabnik je rekel: ›Osedlal si bom osla, da bom lahko jahal na njem in šel h kralju, ker je tvoj služabnik hrom.‹
27 He has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.
In ta je obrekoval tvojega služabnika mojemu gospodu kralju, toda moj gospod kralj je kakor angel od Boga. Stôri torej, kar je dobro v tvojih očeh.
28 For all my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I yet that I should appeal any more to the king?”
Kajti vsi iz hiše mojega očeta so bili le kot mrtvi možje pred mojim gospodom kraljem, vendar si svojega služabnika postavil med tiste, ki so jedli pri tvoji lastni mizi. Kakšno pravico imam torej, da še kakorkoli kličem h kralju?«
29 The king said to him, “Why do you speak any more of your matters? I say, you and Ziba divide the land.”
Kralj mu je rekel: »Zakaj še govoriš o svojih zadevah? Rekel sem: ›Ti in Cibá si razdelita deželo.‹«
30 Mephibosheth said to the king, “Yes, let him take all, because my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
Mefibóšet je rekel kralju: »Da, naj on vzame vse, potem ko se je moj gospod kralj v miru ponovno vrnil v svojo lastno hišo.«
31 Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went over the Jordan with the king to conduct him over the Jordan.
Gileádec Barziláj je prišel dol iz Roglíma in s kraljem odšel čez Jordan, da ga spremi čez Jordan.
32 Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even eighty years old. He had provided the king with sustenance while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
Torej Barziláj je bil zelo ostarel mož, star celó osemdeset let. Kralju je priskrbel oskrbo, medtem ko je ta ležal pri Mahanájimu, kajti bil je zelo izjemen človek.
33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will sustain you with me in Jerusalem.”
Kralj je rekel Barziláju: »Z menoj pridi čez in hranil te bom v Jeruzalemu.«
34 Barzillai said to the king, “How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
Barziláj pa je kralju rekel: »Doklej bom še živel, da bi s kraljem šel gor v Jeruzalem?
35 I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?
Ta dan sem star osemdeset let in ali lahko razločim med dobrim in zlom? Ali lahko tvoj služabnik okuša, kar jem ali kar pijem? Ali še lahko slišim glas prepevajočih mož in prepevajočih žensk? Zakaj bi bil torej tvoj služabnik še breme mojemu gospodu kralju?
36 Your servant will just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
Tvoj služabnik bo s kraljem šel krajšo pot čez Jordan. Zakaj bi me kralj poplačal s takšno nagrado?
37 Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good to you.”
Naj se tvoj služabnik, prosim te, obrne nazaj, da lahko umrem v svojem lastnem mestu in pokopan bom poleg groba svojega očeta in svoje matere. Toda poglej svojega služabnika Kimháma. Naj gre on preko z mojim gospodom kraljem in stôri mu, kakor se ti zdi dobro.«
38 The king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good to you. Whatever you request of me, that I will do for you.”
Kralj je odgovoril: »Kimhám bo z menoj šel preko in storil mu bom to, kar se ti zdi dobro in karkoli boš zahteval od mene, to bom storil zate.«
39 All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
In vse ljudstvo je šlo čez Jordan. Ko je kralj prišel čez, je kralj poljubil Barzilája in ga blagoslovil, in ta se je vrnil na svoj lasten kraj.
40 So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
Potem je kralj odšel naprej h Gilgálu in Kimhám je z njim odšel naprej in vse Judovo ljudstvo je spremilo kralja in tudi polovica Izraelovega ljudstva.
41 Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”
Glej, vsi Izraelovi možje so prišli h kralju in kralju rekli: »Zakaj so te naši bratje, Judovi možje, ukradli in privedli kralja, njegovo družino in vse Davidove može z njim, čez Jordan?«
42 All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”
In vsi možje iz Juda so Izraelovim možem odgovorili: »Ker nam je kralj bližnji sorodnik. Zakaj ste potem jezni zaradi te zadeve? Ali smo sploh jedli na kraljeve stroške? Ali nam je dal kakršnokoli darilo?«
43 The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
Izraelovi možje so odgovorili Judovim možem in rekli: »V kralju imamo deset delov in mi imamo več pravice do Davida kakor vi. Čemu nas potem prezirate, da naš nasvet ne bi bil prvi v tem, da smo svojega kralja privedli nazaj?« In besede mož iz Juda so bile trše kakor besede mož iz Izraela.
