1 Samuel 27
1 And Dauid said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: is it not better for me that I saue my selfe in the lande of the Philistims, and that Saul may haue no hope of me to seeke me any more in all the coastes of Israel, and so escape out of his hand?
David je v svojem srcu rekel: »Sedaj bom nekega dne umrl po Savlovi roki. Zame ni nič boljšega, kakor da bi hitro pobegnil v deželo Filistejcev in Savel bo obupal nad menoj, da me še išče v kateremkoli območju Izraela. Tako bom pobegnil iz njegove roke.«
2 Dauid therefore arose, and he, and the sixe hundreth men that were with him, went vnto Achish the sonne of Maoch King of Gath.
David se je dvignil in šel preko s šeststo možmi, ki so bili z njim, k Ahíšu, Maóhovemu sinu, kralju Gata.
3 And Dauid dwelt with Achish at Gath, he, and his men, euery man with his housholde, Dauid with his two wiues, Ahinoam the Izreelite, and Abigail Nabals wife the Carmelite.
David je prebival z Ahíšem v Gatu, on in njegovi možje, vsak mož s svojo družino, David s svojima dvema ženama, Jezreélko Ahinóam in Karmelčanko Abigájilo, Nabálovo ženo.
4 And it was tolde Saul that Dauid was fled to Gath: so he sought no more for him.
To je bilo povedano Savlu, da je David pobegnil v Gat in ni ga več ponovno iskal.
5 And Dauid saide vnto Achish, If I haue nowe founde peace in thine eyes, let them giue me a place in some other citie of the countrey, that I may dwell there: for why should thy seruant dwel in ye head citie of the kingdome with thee?
David je rekel Ahíšu: »Če sem torej našel milost v tvojih očeh, naj mi dajo prostor v nekem mestu v deželi, da bom tam lahko prebival, kajti zakaj bi tvoj služabnik prebival s teboj v kraljevem mestu?«
6 Then Achish gaue him Ziklag that same day: therefore Ziklag pertaineth vnto the kings of Iudah vnto this day.
Potem mu je Ahíš ta dan izročil Ciklág. Zato Ciklág pripada Judovim kraljem do tega dne.
7 And the time that Dauid dwelt in the countrey of the Philistims, was foure moneths and certaine dayes.
Časa, ko je David prebival v deželi Filistejcev, je bil polno leto in štiri mesece.
8 Then Dauid and his men went vp, and inuaded the Geshurites, and the Girzites, and the Amalekites: for they inhabited the lande from the beginning, from the way, as thou goest to Shur, euen vnto the lande of Egypt.
David in njegovi možje so odšli gor in vdrli h Gešuréjcem, Girzéjcem in Amalečanom, kajti ti narodi so bili od davnine prebivalci dežele, kakor greš v Šur, celo v egiptovsko deželo.
9 And Dauid smote the lande, and left neither man nor woman aliue, and tooke sheepe, and oxen, and asses, and camels, and apparell, and returned and came to Achish.
David je udaril deželo in ni pustil živega niti moškega niti ženske in odvedel ovce, vole, osle, kamele, obleke in se vrnil in prišel k Ahíšu.
10 And Achish said, Where haue ye bene a rouing this day? And Dauid answered, Against the South of Iudah, and against the South of the Ierahmeelites, and against the South of ye Kenites.
Ahíš je rekel: »Kam ste danes vpadli?« David je rekel: »Zoper južni Juda in zoper jug Jerahmeélovcev in zoper jug Kenéjcev.«
11 And Dauid saued neither man nor woman aliue, to bring them to Gath, saying, Lest they should tel on vs, and say, So did Dauid, and so will be his maner all the while that he dwelleth in the countrey of the Philistims.
David ni rešil živega niti moškega niti ženske, da prinesejo novice v Gat, rekoč: »Da ne bi povedali o nas, rekoč: ›Tako je storil David in takšen bo njegov način, vse dokler on prebiva v deželi Filistejcev.‹«
12 And Achish beleeued Dauid, saying, He hath made his people of Israel vtterly to abhorre him: therefore he shalbe my seruant for euer.
Ahíš je verjel Davidu, rekoč: »Svojemu ljudstvu Izraelu je storil, da ga popolnoma prezira, zato bo on moj služabnik na veke.«
