2 Samuel 4
1 And when Saul's son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands were enfeebled, and all Israel was troubled.
Ko je Savlov sin slišal, da je bil Abnêr mrtev v Hebrónu, so bile njegove roke slabotne in vsi Izraelci so bili zaskrbljeni.
2 And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin; for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin.
Savlov sin je imel dva moža, ki sta bila poveljnika čet. Ime enega je bilo Baaná in ime drugega Reháb, sinova Rimóna, Beeróčana, izmed Benjaminovih otrok (kajti tudi Beerót je bil štet k Benjaminu
3 And the Beerothites had fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day.
in Beeróčani so pobegnili v Gitájim in bili tam začasni prebivalci do tega dne.)
4 And Jonathan Saul's son had a son that was lame of [his] feet. He was five years old when the news came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jizreel; and his nurse took him up and fled. And it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
Savlov sin Jonatan je imel sina, ki je bil hrom od svojih stopal. Pet let je bil star, ko so prišle iz Jezreéla novice o Savlu in Jonatanu in njegova dojilja ga je vzela in pobegnila. Pripetilo pa se je, medtem ko je hitela, da pobegne, da je padel in postal hrom. Njegovo ime je bilo Mefibóšet.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went and came in about the heat of the day into the house of Ishbosheth, who was taking his noonday rest.
Sinova Beeróčana Rimóna, Reháb in Baaná sta odšla in prišla okoli dnevne vročine v hišo Iš Bošeta, ki je opoldan ležal na postelji.
6 And they came thither into the midst of the house, [as though] they would fetch wheat; and they smote him in the belly; and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
Prišla sta tja, v sredo hiše, kakor bi hotela vzeti pšenico. Udarila sta ga pod peto rebro in Reháb in njegov brat Baaná sta pobegnila.
7 They came into the house, as he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him; and they took his head, and went by the way of the plain all night.
Kajti ko sta prišla v hišo, je ležal na svoji postelji, v svoji spalnici in udarila sta ga in ga usmrtila in obglavila in vzela njegovo glavo in vso noč bežala čez ravnino.
8 And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David in Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, thine enemy who sought thy life; and Jehovah has given to my lord the king to be avenged this day of Saul and of his seed.
Glavo Iš Bošeta sta prinesla k Davidu v Hebrón in rekla kralju: »Glej, glava Savlovega sina Iš Bošeta, tvojega sovražnika, ki je iskal tvoje življenje in Gospod je ta dan maščeval mojega gospoda kralja nad Savlom in njegovim semenom.«
9 Then David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, [As] Jehovah liveth, who has redeemed my soul out of all distress,
David pa je odgovoril Rehábu in njegovemu bratu Baanáju, sinovoma Beeróčana Rimóna ter jima rekel: » Kakor živi Gospod, ki je mojo dušo odkupil od vseh nasprotnikov,
10 when one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead! and he was in his own sight a messenger of good, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag — to whom forsooth I should give a reward for his good tidings:
ko mi je nekdo povedal, rekoč: ›Glej, Savel je mrtev, ‹ misleč, da je prinesel dobre novice, sem ga prijel in ga usmrtil v Ciklágu. Mislil je, da mu bom dal nagrado za njegove novice.
11 how much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? and should I not now demand his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?
Koliko mnogo bolj, ko sta zlobneža umorila pravično osebo v njegovi lastni hiši, na njegovi postelji? Mar ne bom torej sedaj zahteval njegovo kri iz vajine roke in vaju vzel proč z zemlje?«
12 And David commanded his young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged [them] up over the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
David je svojim mladeničem zapovedal in so ju ubili ter odsekali njuni roki in njuna stopala in ju obesili gor nad ribnik v Hebrónu. Toda vzeli so glavo Iš Bošeta in jo pokopali v Abnêrjevem mavzoleju v Hebrónu.
