< 2 Samuel 5 >

1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.
Potem so vsi Izraelovi rodovi prišli k Davidu v Hebrón in spregovorili, rekoč: »Glej, mi smo tvoja kost in tvoje meso.
2 Even in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
Tudi v preteklem času, ko je bil Savel kralj nad nami, si bil ti tisti, ki nas je vodil ven in privedel v Izrael in Gospod ti je rekel: ›Ti boš pasel moje ljudstvo Izrael in ti boš poveljnik nad Izraelom.‹«
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.
Tako so vsi Izraelovi starešine prišli h kralju v Hebrón in kralj David je z njimi v Hebrónu sklenil zavezo pred Gospodom in Davida so mazilili [za] kralja nad Izraelom.
4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.
David je bil star trideset let, ko je začel kraljevati in kraljeval je štirideset let.
5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
V Hebrónu je nad Judom kraljeval sedem let in šest mesecev, v Jeruzalemu pa je triintrideset let kraljeval nad vsem Izraelom in Judom.
6 Now the king and his men marched to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who inhabited the land. The Jebusites said to David: “You will never get in here. Even the blind and lame can repel you.” For they thought, “David cannot get in here.”
Kralj in njegovi možje so odšli v Jeruzalem k Jebusejcem, prebivalcem dežele, ki so Davidu spregovorili, rekoč: »Razen če ne odstraniš slepih in hromih, ne boš vstopil sèm, « misleč, [da] David ne more priti tja.
7 Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).
Kljub temu je David zavzel oporišče Sion. Isto je Davidovo mesto.
8 On that day he said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites must use the water shaft to reach the lame and blind who are despised by David.” That is why it is said, “The blind and the lame will never enter the palace.”
David je na ta dan rekel: »Kdorkoli se spravi gor do jarka in udari Jebusejce in hrome in slepe, ki jih Davidova duša sovraži, ta bo voditelj in poveljnik.« Zatorej so rekli: »Slepi in hromi ne bodo prišli v hišo.«
9 So David took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built it up all the way around, from the supporting terraces inward.
Tako je David prebival v utrdbi in jo imenoval Davidovo mesto. In David je gradil naokoli od Milója in znotraj.
10 And David became greater and greater, for the LORD God of Hosts was with him.
David je odšel naprej in postal velik in Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki, je bil z njim.
11 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
Tirski kralj Hirám je poslal poslance k Davidu in cedrova drevesa, tesarje in zidarje in ti so Davidu zgradili hišo.
12 And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.
David je zaznal, da ga je Gospod utrdil za kralja nad Izraelom in da je njegovo kraljestvo povišal zaradi svojega ljudstva Izraela.
13 After he had arrived from Hebron, David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him.
In David si je vzel [še] več priležnic in žená iz Jeruzalema, potem ko je prišel iz Hebróna in tam so se Davidu rodili še sinovi in hčere.
14 These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
To so imena izmed tistih, ki so mu bili rojeni v Jeruzalemu: Šamúa, Šobáb, Natán, Salomon,
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
tudi Jibhár, Elišúa, Nefeg, Jafíja,
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
Elišamá, Eljadá in Elifálet.
17 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of him; but David learned of this and went down to the stronghold.
Toda ko so Filistejci slišali, da so Davida mazilili [za] kralja nad Izraelom, so vsi Filistejci prišli gor, da poiščejo Davida in David je slišal o tem in odšel dol k utrjenemu kraju.
18 Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
Tudi Filistejci so prišli in se razkropili v dolini Rafájim.
19 So David inquired of the LORD, “Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” “Go,” replied the LORD, “for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
David je poizvedel od Gospoda, rekoč: »Naj grem gor k Filistejcem? Jih boš izročil v mojo roko?« Gospod je rekel Davidu: »Pojdi gor, kajti nedvomno bom Filistejce izročil v tvojo roko.«
20 So David went to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before me.” So he called that place Baal-perazim.
David je prišel do Báal Peracíma in David jih je tam udaril ter rekel: » Gospod je kakor prodor vodá izbruhnil na moje sovražnike pred menoj.« Zato je ime tega kraja imenoval Báal Peracím.
21 There the Philistines abandoned their idols, and David and his men carried them away.
In oni so tam pustili svoje podobe, David in njegovi možje pa so jih sežgali.
22 Once again the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
In Filistejci so ponovno prišli gor in se razkropili v dolini Rafájim.
23 So David inquired of the LORD, who answered, “Do not march straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
Ko je David poizvedel od Gospoda, je rekel: »Ne boš šel gor, temveč za njimi postavi zasedo in pridi nadnje nasproti murvinim drevesom.
24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
In naj bo, ko zaslišiš šum hoje v vrhu murvinih dreves, da se boš potem podvizal, kajti takrat bo Gospod šel ven pred teboj, da udari vojsko Filistejcev.«
25 So David did as the LORD had commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
David je storil tako, kakor mu je Gospod zapovedal in udarjal Filistejce od Gebe, dokler ne prideš do Gazerja.
