1 Samuel 18
1 And it came to pass, when he had ended speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
Pripetilo se je, ko je končal pogovor s Savlom, da se je Jonatanova duša povezala z Davidovo dušo in Jonatan ga je vzljubil kakor svojo lastno dušo.
2 And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his father's house.
Savel ga je ta dan vzel in mu ni več dovolil iti domov, k hiši svojega očeta.
3 And Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
Potem sta Jonatan in David sklenila zavezo, ker ga je vzljubil kakor svojo lastno dušo.
4 And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his dress, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
Jonatan si je slekel vrhnje oblačilo, ki je bilo na njem in ga dal Davidu, in svoja oblačila, celo do svojega meča, svojega loka in svojega pasu.
5 And David went forth; whithersoever Saul sent him he prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
David je odšel ven, kamor ga je poslal Savel in se modro vedel. Savel ga je postavil nad bojevnike in sprejet je bil pred očmi vsega ljudstva in tudi pred očmi Savlovih služabnikov.
6 And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambours, with joy, and with triangles.
Pripetilo se je, medtem ko so prišli, ko se je David vrnil iz pokola Filistejca, da so prišle ženske ven iz vseh Izraelovih mest, pojoč in plešoč, da srečajo kralja Savla z bobniči, z radostjo in z glasbenimi instrumenti.
7 And the women answered [one another] as they played, and said, Saul hath smitten his thousands, And David his ten thousands.
Ženske so odgovarjale druga drugi, medtem ko so igrale in govorile: »Savel je umoril svoje tisoče, David pa svoje deset tisoče.«
8 And Saul was very wroth, and that saying was evil in his sight; and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but to me they have ascribed the thousands; and [what] is there more for him but the kingdom?
Savel je bil zelo ogorčen in [to] govorjenje mu ni ugajalo in je rekel: »Davidu so pripisale deset tisoče, meni pa so pripisale samo tisoče. Kaj ima lahko več kakor kraljestvo?«
9 And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
Savel je od tistega dne dalje Davida opazoval.
10 And it came to pass the next day that an evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house, but David played with his hand, as on other days; and the spear was in Saul's hand.
Pripetilo se je naslednji dan, da je nad Savla prišel zli duh od Boga in je prerokoval v sredi hiše. David pa je igral s svojo roko kakor ob drugih časih. V Savlovi roki pa je bilo kopje.
11 And Saul cast the spear, and thought, I will smite David and the wall. But David turned away from him twice.
Savel je zalučal kopje, kajti rekel je: » S tem bom Davida udaril celo k zidu.« David pa se je dvakrat izognil njegovi prisotnosti.
12 And Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and had departed from Saul.
Savel se je bal Davida, ker je bil Gospod z njim, od Savla pa je odšel.
13 And Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
Zato ga je Savel odstranil od sebe in ga postavil za poveljnika nad tisočimi in odhajal in prihajal je pred ljudstvom.
14 And David prospered in all his ways; and Jehovah was with him.
David se je na vseh svojih poteh obnašal modro in Gospod je bil z njim.
15 And Saul saw that he prospered well, and he stood in awe of him.
Zato se ga je Savel, ko je videl, da se je obnašal zelo modro, bal.
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.
Toda ves Izrael in Juda je ljubil Davida, zato ker je odhajal in prihajal pred njimi.
17 And Saul said to David, Behold my eldest daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife; only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles. But Saul thought, My hand shall not be upon him, but the hand of the Philistines shall be upon him.
Savel je rekel Davidu: »Glej mojo starejšo hči Merábo, njo ti bom dal za ženo, samo hraber bodi zame in bojuj Gospodove boje.« Kajti Savel je rekel: »Naj moja roka ne bo nad njim, temveč naj bo nad njim roka Filistejcev.«
18 And David said to Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, [or] my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
David je rekel Savlu: »Kdo sem jaz? In kaj je moje življenje ali družina mojega očeta v Izraelu, da bi bil kraljev zet?«
19 And it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
Toda pripetilo se je ob času, ko naj bi bila Savlova hči Merába dana Davidu, da je bila dana za ženo Mehólčanu Adriélu.
20 And Michal Saul's daughter loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing was right in his sight.
Savlova hči Mihála je ljubila Davida in povedali so Savlu in stvar mu je ugajala.
21 And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son-in-law a second time.
Savel je rekel: »Dal mu jo bom, da mu bo lahko za zanko in da bo roka Filistejcev lahko zoper njega.« Zato je Savel rekel Davidu: »Danes boš moj zet z eno od dveh.«
22 And Saul commanded his servants, Speak with David secretly, saying, Behold, the king has delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
Savel je zapovedal svojim služabnikom, rekoč: »Na skrivaj se pogovarjajte z Davidom in recite: ›Glej, kralj se razveseljuje v tebi in vsi njegovi služabniki te ljubijo. Sedaj torej postani kraljev zet.‹«
23 And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Is it a light thing in your eyes to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
Savlovi služabniki so te besede govorili na Davidova ušesa. David je rekel: »Ali se vam zdi to lahka stvar postati kraljev zet, glede na to, da sem revež in preziran?«
24 And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner did David speak.
Savlovi služabniki so mu povedali, rekoč: »David je govoril na ta način.«
25 And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David: The king does not desire any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Savel je rekel: »Tako boste rekli Davidu: ›Kralj ne želi nobene dote, temveč sto prednjih kožic Filistejcev, da bi bil maščevan nad kraljevimi sovražniki.‹« Toda Savel je mislil, da bi Davidu povzročil pasti po roki Filistejcev.
26 And his servants told David these words; and the thing was right in David's sight to be the king's son-in-law. And the days were not expired,
Ko so njegovi služabniki te besede povedali Davidu, je Davidu ugajalo, da bi bil kraljev zet in dnevi še niso pretekli.
27 when David arose and went, he and his men, and smote of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they delivered them in full to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.
Zato je David vstal in odšel, on in njegovi možje in izmed Filistejcev so usmrtili dvesto mož. David je prinesel njihove prednje kožice in v polnem številu so jih izročili kralju, da bi postal kraljev zet. In Savel mu je dal svojo hčer Mihálo za ženo.
28 And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David; and Michal Saul's daughter loved him.
Savel je videl in spoznal, da je bil Gospod z Davidom in da ga je Savlova hči Mihála ljubila.
29 And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David's enemy continually.
Savel pa se je še bolj bal Davida in Savel je dnevno postajal Davidov sovražnik.
30 And the princes of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass, whenever they went forth, that David succeeded better than all the servants of Saul; and his name was much esteemed.
Potem so princi Filistejcev odšli naprej in pripetilo se je, potem ko so šli naprej, da se je David obnašal bolj modro kakor vsi Savlovi služabniki, tako da je bilo njegovo ime zelo cenjeno.
