< 2 Samuel 3 >
1 Then a long struggle occurred between the house of Saul and the house of David, with David prospering and growing ever stronger, but the house of Saul decreasing daily.
I trvala dlouho válka mezi domem Saulovým a domem Davidovým. David pak čím dále tím více se silil, ale dům Saulův čím dále tím se více umenšoval.
2 And sons were born to David in Hebron. And his firstborn son was Amnon, from Ahinoam the Jezreelite.
I zrodili se Davidovi synové v Hebronu, z nichž prvorozený jeho byl Amnon z Achinoam Jezreelské;
3 And after him, there was Chileab, from Abigail, the wife of Nabal of Carmel. Then the third was Absalom, the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, the king of Geshur.
A druhý po něm Cheleab z Abigail, ženy někdy Nábale Karmelského; třetí pak Absolon, syn z Maachy dcery Tolmai krále Gessur;
4 Then the fourth was Adonijah, the son of Haggith. And the fifth was Shephatiah, the son of Abital.
A čtvrtý Adoniáš syn Haggit, a pátý Sefatiáš syn Abitál;
5 Also, the sixth was Ithream, from Eglah, the wife of David. These were born to David at Hebron.
Šestý pak Jetram z Egly manželky Davidovy. Ti se zrodili Davidovi v Hebronu.
6 Then, while there was a battle between the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner, the son of Ner, was reigning over the house of Saul.
I stalo se, když byla válka mezi domem Saulovým a mezi domem Davidovým, a Abner statečně zastával domu Saulova,
7 Now Saul had a concubine named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbosheth said to Abner,
(Měl pak byl Saul ženinu, jejíž jméno bylo Rizpa, dcera Aja, ) že řekl Izbozet Abnerovi: I proč jsi všel k ženině otce mého?
8 “Why did you enter to the concubine of my father?” But he, being exceedingly angry at the words of Ishbosheth, said: “Am I the head of a dog against Judah this day? I have shown mercy to the house of Saul, your father, and to his brothers and friends. And I have not delivered you into the hands of David. And yet today you have sought me, so that you might rebuke me over a woman?
Tedy rozhněvav se Abner velmi pro slova Izbozetova, řekl: I zdali já jsem psí hlava, kterýž jsem proti Judovi dnes učinil milosrdenství s domem Saule otce tvého, s bratřími jeho i příbuznými jeho, a nevydal jsem tě v ruku Davidovu, a však vyhledáváš na mně dnes nepravosti té ženy.
9 May God do these things to Abner, and may he add these other things, if, in the same way that the Lord swore to David, I do not do so with him:
Toto učiň Bůh Abnerovi a toto mu přidej, jestliže nedopomohu k tomu Davidovi, jakož jemu přisáhl Hospodin,
10 that the kingdom be transferred from the house of Saul, and that the throne of David be elevated over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba.”
Aby přeneseno bylo království od domu Saulova, a upevněn byl trůn Davidův nad Izraelem i nad Judou, od Dan až do Bersabé.
11 And he was not able to respond anything to him, because he was in fear of him.
A nemohl k tomu nic více odpovědíti Abnerovi, proto že se ho bál.
12 Therefore, Abner sent messengers to David for himself, saying, “Whose is the land?” and so that they would say, “Make a friendship with me, and my hand will be with you, and I will lead back all of Israel to you.”
A tak poslal Abner posly k Davidovi na místě svém, řka: Čí jest země? A aby řekli: Učiň smlouvu se mnou, a aj, ruka má bude s tebou, abych obrátil k tobě všecken Izrael.
13 And he said: “It is best. I will make a friendship with you. But one thing I ask of you, saying: You shall not see my face before you bring Michal, the daughter of Saul. And in this way, you shall come, and see me.”
Jemuž odpověděl: Dobře. Jáť učiním s tebou smlouvu, a však jedné věci od tebe žádám, totiž, abys neviděl tváři mé, leč prvé dáš přivésti Míkol dceru Saulovu, když bys chtěl přijíti, abys viděl tvář mou.
14 Then David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, saying, “Restore my wife Michal, whom I espoused to myself for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
I poslal David posly k Izbozetovi synu Saulovu, aby řekli: Dej mi ženu mou Míkol, kterouž jsem sobě zasnoubil ve stu obřízek Filistinských.
15 Therefore, Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband Paltiel, the son of Laish.
Poslav tedy Izbozet, vzal ji od muže Faltiele syna Lais.
16 And her husband was following her, weeping, as far as Bahurim. And Abner said to him, “Go and return.” And he returned.
Šel pak s ní muž její, a jda za ní až do Bahurim, plakal. Tedy řekl jemu Abner: Jdi, navrať se zase. I navrátil se.
17 Likewise, Abner sent word to the elders of Israel, saying: “As much yesterday as the day before, you were seeking David, so that he might reign over you.
Potom Abner učinil řeč k starším Izraelským, řka: Předešle stáli jste o to, aby David byl králem nad vámi.
18 Therefore, accomplish it now. For the Lord has spoken to David, saying: ‘By the hand of my servant David, I will save my people Israel from the hand of the Philistines and of all their enemies.’”
Protož nyní vykonejtež to; neboť jest Hospodin mluvil o Davidovi, řka: Skrze ruku Davida služebníka svého vysvobodím lid svůj Izraelský z ruky Filistinských, a z ruky všech nepřátel jeho.
19 Then Abner also spoke to Benjamin. And he went away, so that he might speak to David in Hebron all that would be pleasing to Israel and to all of Benjamin.
To též mluvil Abner i k Beniaminským. Potom odšel Abner, aby mluvil k Davidovi v Hebronu všecko, což se za dobré vidělo Izraelovi a všemu domu Beniamin.
20 And he went to David in Hebron with twenty men. And David made a feast for Abner, and for his men who had arrived with him.
Když tedy přišel Abner k Davidovi do Hebronu a s ním dvadceti mužů, učinil David Abnerovi i mužům, kteříž s ním byli, hody.
21 And Abner said to David, “I will rise up, so that I may gather all of Israel to you, my lord the king, and so that I may enter into a pact with you, and so that you may reign over all, just as your soul desires.” Then, when David had led Abner away, and he had departed in peace,
I řekl Abner Davidovi: Vstanu a půjdu, abych shromáždil ku pánu svému králi všecken lid Izraelský, kteříž vejdou s tebou v smlouvu, a budeš kralovati nade všemi, jakož toho žádá duše tvá. I propustil David Abnera, kterýž odšel v pokoji.
22 immediately the servants of David and of Joab arrived, after having slain robbers, with exceedingly great spoils. But Abner was not with David in Hebron. For by then he had sent him away, and he had set out in peace.
A aj, služebníci Davidovi a Joáb vraceli se z vojny, kořisti veliké s sebou nesouce. Ale Abnera již nebylo s Davidem v Hebronu, nebo byl ho propustil, a již odšel v pokoji.
23 And Joab, and the entire army that was with him, had arrived afterward. And so, it was reported to Joab, explaining that Abner, the son of Ner, went to the king, and he dismissed him, and he went away in peace.
Joáb tedy i všecko vojsko, kteréž bylo s ním, přišli tam. I oznámili Joábovi, řkouce: Byl zde Abner syn Nerův u krále, ale propustil jej, a odšel v pokoji.
24 And Joab entered to the king, and he said: “What have you done? Behold, Abner came to you. Why did you dismiss him, so that he has gone and departed?
Protož všed Joáb k králi, řekl: Co jsi učinil? Aj, přišel byl Abner k tobě; proč jsi ho pustil, aby zase odšel?
25 Do you not know, about Abner, the son of Ner, that he came to you for this, so that he might deceive you, and might know of your departure and your return, and so that he might know all that you do?”
Znáš Abnera syna Nerova. Proto, aby podvedl tebe, přišel, a aby vyšpehoval vycházení tvé i vcházení tvé, a zvěděl všecko, co ty činíš.
26 And so, Joab, going out from David, sent messengers after Abner, and he brought him back from the cistern of Sirah, without David knowing.
Tedy vyšed Joáb od Davida, poslal posly za Abnerem, kteříž ho přivedli zase od čisterny Sírach, o čemž David nic nevěděl.
27 And when Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him alone to the middle of the gate, so that he might speak to him, but with deceit. And there, he stabbed him in the groin, and he died, in revenge for the blood of Asahel, his brother.
A když se navrátil Abner do Hebronu, uvedl ho Joáb do prostřed brány, aby s ním mluvil tiše. I udeřil ho v páté žebro, a umřel pro krev Azaele bratra jeho.
28 And when David had heard of it, now that the matter was done, he said: “I and my kingdom are clean before the Lord, even forever, of the blood of Abner, the son of Ner.
To když potom David uslyšel, řekl: Čist jsem já i království mé před Hospodinem až na věky od krve Abnera syna Nerova.
29 And may it fall upon the head of Joab, and upon the entire house of his father. And may there not fail to be, in the house of Joab, one who suffers from a flow of seed, or one who is leprous, or one who is effeminate, or one who falls by the sword, or one who is in need of bread.”
Nechať přijde na hlavu Joábovu i na všecken dům otce jeho, a nechť není prázden dům Joábův toho, jenž by trpěl tok, aneb malomocného a na hůl se podpírajícího, aneb padajícího od meče a nemajícího chleba.
30 And so, Joab and his brother Abishai killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon, during the battle.
A tak Joáb a Abizai bratr jeho zamordovali Abnera, proto že byl zabil Azaele bratra jejich v Gabaon v bitvě.
31 Then David said to Joab, and to all the people who were with him, “Tear your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before the funeral procession of Abner.” Moreover, king David himself was following the casket.
I řekl David Joábovi a ke všemu lidu, kterýž byl s ním: Roztrhněte roucha svá, a přepašte se pytli, a plačte před Abnerem. Král pak David šel za márami.
32 And when they had buried Abner in Hebron, king David lifted up his voice, and he wept over the burial mound of Abner. And all the people also wept.
A když pochovávali Abnera v Hebronu, pozdvih král hlasu svého, plakal nad hrobem Abnerovým, plakal také všecken lid.
33 And the king, mourning and lamenting Abner, said: “By no means has Abner died the way that cowards usually die.
V tom naříkaje král pro Abnera, řekl: Tak-liž jest měl umříti Abner, jako umírá nějaký ničemný člověk?
34 Your hands are not bound, and your feet are not weighed down with fetters. But just as men often fall before the sons of iniquity, so you have fallen.” And while repeating this, all the people wept over him.
Ruce tvé nebyly svázány a nohy tvé měděnými poutami nebyly sevříny, ale padl jsi jako ten, kdož padá od lidí nešlechetných. Tedy ještě více všecken lid plakal nad ním.
35 And when the entire multitude had arrived to take food with David, while it was still broad daylight, David swore, saying, “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things, if I taste bread or anything else before the sun sets.”
Potom přišel všecken lid, a měli k tomu Davida, aby jedl chléb ještě záhý. Ale David přisáhl, řka: Toto ať mi učiní Bůh a toto přidá, jestliže prvé, než slunce zapadne, okusím chleba aneb čehokoli jiného.
36 And all the people heard it, and everything that the king did in the sight of the entire people was pleasing to them.
Což když poznal všecken lid, líbilo se jim to; a všecko, což činil král, líbilo se všemu lidu.
37 And every common person, and all of Israel, realized on that day that the killing of Abner, the son of Ner, had not been done by the king.
I poznal všecken lid a všecken Izrael v ten den, že nepošlo to od krále, aby zabili Abnera syna Nerova.
38 The king also said to his servants: “Could you be ignorant that a leader and a very great man has fallen today in Israel?
Řekl pak král služebníkům svým: Nevíte-liž, že kníže, a veliké, padlo dnes v Izraeli?
39 But I am still tender, and yet anointed king. And these men of the sons of Zeruiah are too harsh for me. May the Lord repay whoever does evil in accord with his malice.”
A já ještě nyní mdlý jsem, jakožto pomazaný král, muži pak tito, synové Sarvie, jsou mi nepovolní. Odplatiž Hospodin tomu, kdož zle činí, vedlé zlosti jeho.
