2 Samuel 24
1 And the wrath of the Lord was againe kindled against Israel, and he moued Dauid against them, in that he saide, Goe, number Israel and Iudah.
In ponovno je bila vžgana Gospodova jeza zoper Izrael in zoper njih je napeljal Davida, da reče: »Pojdite, preštejte Izraela in Juda.«
2 For the King said to Ioab the captaine of the hoste, which was with him, Goe speedily now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan euen to Beer-sheba, and nomber ye the people, that I may knowe the nomber of the people.
Kajti kralj je rekel Joábu, poveljniku vojske, ki je bila z njim: »Pojdite sedaj skozi vse Izraelove rodove, od Dana, celo do Beeršébe in preštejte ljudstvo, da bom lahko vedel število ljudstva.«
3 And Ioab saide vnto the King, The Lord thy God increase the people an hundreth folde more then they be, and that the eyes of my lorde the King may see it: but why doeth my lord the King desire this thing?
Joáb pa je rekel kralju: »Torej Gospod, tvoj Bog, [naj] doda ljudstvu, kolikokrat že, stokratno in da bodo oči mojega gospoda kralja lahko to videle, toda zakaj se moj gospod kralj razveseljuje v tej stvari?«
4 Notwithstanding the Kings worde preuailed against Ioab and against the captaines of the hoste: therefore Ioab and the captaines of the hoste went out from the presence of the King to nomber the people of Israel.
Vendar je kraljeva beseda prevladala zoper Joába in zoper poveljnike vojske. In Joáb in poveljniki vojske so odšli izpred kraljeve prisotnosti, da preštejejo Izraelsko ljudstvo.
5 And they passed ouer Iorden, and pitched in Aroer at the right side of the citie that is in the middes of the valley of Gad and toward Iazer.
Prečkali so Jordan in se utaborili v Aroêrju, na desni strani mesta, ki leži v sredi reke Gad in proti Jazêrju.
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to Tahtim-hodshi, so they came to Dan Iaan, and so about to Zidon,
Potem so prišli v Gileád in v deželo Tahtím Hodší; in prišli so v Dan Jáan in okoli k Sidónu
7 And came to the fortresse of Tyrus and to all the cities of the Hiuites and of the Canaanites, and went towarde the South of Iudah, euen to Beer-sheba.
in prišli so k močnemu oporišču Tir in k vsem mestom Hivéjcev in Kánaancev in odšli so ven k južnemu Judu, celó do Beeršébe.
8 So when they had gone about all the lande, they returned to Ierusalem at the ende of nine moneths and twentie dayes.
Torej ko so šli skozi vso deželo, so ob koncu devetih mesecev in dvajsetih dni prišli v Jeruzalem.
9 And Ioab deliuered the nomber and summe of the people vnto the King: and there were in Israel eight hundreth thousande strong men that drewe swordes, and the men of Iudah were fiue hundreth thousand men.
Joáb je kralju izročil vsoto števila ljudstva. Tam je bilo v Izraelu osemsto tisoč hrabrih mož, ki so izdirali meč in Judovih mož je bilo petsto tisoč mož.
10 Then Dauids heart smote him, after that he had numbred the people: and Dauid said vnto the Lord, I haue sinned exceedingly in that I haue done: therefore nowe, Lord, I beseech thee, take away the trespasse of thy seruant: for I haue done very foolishly.
Davidovo srce pa ga je udarilo, potem ko je imel ljudstvo prešteto. David je rekel Gospodu: »Silno sem grešil v tem, kar sem storil in sedaj te rotim, oh Gospod, odvzemi krivičnost svojega služabnika, kajti postopal sem zelo nespametno.«
11 And when Dauid was vp in the morning, the worde of the Lord came vnto the Prophet Gad Dauids Seer, saying,
Kajti ko je bil David zjutraj pokonci, je k Davidovemu vidcu, preroku Gadu, prišla beseda od Gospoda, rekoč:
12 Go, and say vnto Dauid, Thus saith ye Lord, I offer thee three thinges, chuse thee which of them I shall doe vnto thee.
»Pojdi in reci Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod, ponujam ti tri stvari. Izberi eno izmed njih, da ti jo lahko storim.‹«
13 So Gad came to Dauid, and shewed him, and said vnto him, Wilt thou that seuen yeeres famine come vpon thee in thy lande, or wilt thou flee three moneths before thine enemies, they following thee, or that there bee three dayes pestilence in thy land? nowe aduise thee, and see, what answere I shall giue to him that sent me.
Tako je Gad prišel k Davidu in mu povedal ter mu rekel: »Ali naj pride k tebi, v tvojo deželo, sedem let lakote? Ali hočeš tri mesece bežati pred svojimi sovražniki, medtem ko te zasledujejo? Ali, da bo v tvoji deželi tridnevna kužna bolezen? Sedaj se posvetuj in glej, kakšen odgovor naj vrnem tistemu, ki me je poslal.«
14 And Dauid said vnto Gad, I am in a wonderfull strait: let vs fall nowe into the hand of the Lord, (for his mercies are great) and let mee not fall into the hand of man.
David je Gadu rekel: »V veliki stiski sem. Naj torej pademo v Gospodovo roko, kajti njegova usmiljenja so velika in naj ne padem v roko človeka.«
15 So the Lord sent a pestilece in Israel, from the morning euen to the time appointed: and there dyed of the people from Dan euen to Beer-sheba seuentie thousand men.
Tako je Gospod nad Izrael poslal kužno bolezen od jutra celo do določenega časa in tam je umrlo izmed ljudstva, od Dana, celo do Beeršébe, sedemdeset tisoč mož.
16 And when the Angel stretched out his hande vpon Ierusalem to destroy it, the Lord repented of the euil, and said to the Angel that destroyed the people, It is sufficient, holde nowe thine hand. And the Angel of the Lord was by the threshing place of Araunah the Iebusite.
Ko je angel svojo roko iztegnil nad Jeruzalem, da ga uniči, se je Gospod pokesal od zla in rekel angelu, ki je uničeval ljudstvo: »Dovolj je. Zadrži sedaj svojo roko.« Gospodov angel pa je bil pri kraju mlatišča Jebusejca Arávna.
17 And Dauid spake vnto the Lord (when he sawe the Angel that smote the people) and saide, Behold, I haue sinned, yea, I haue done wickedly: but these sheepe, what haue they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against mee and against my fathers house.
David je spregovoril Gospodu, ko je videl angela, ki je udaril ljudstvo in rekel: »Glej! Grešil sem, storil sem zlobno. Toda te ovce, kaj so storile? Naj bo tvoja roka, prosim te, zoper mene in zoper hišo mojega očeta.«
18 So Gad came the same day to Dauid, and said vnto him, Go vp, reare an altar vnto the Lord in the threshing floore of Araunah the Iebusite.
Gad je ta dan prišel k Davidu in mu rekel: »Pojdi gor, zgradi oltar Gospodu na mlatišču Jebusejca Arávna.«
19 And Dauid (according to the saying of Gad) went vp, as the Lord had commanded.
David je, glede na Gadovo izjavo, odšel gor, kakor je Gospod ukazal.
20 And Araunah looked, and sawe the King and his seruants comming towarde him, and Araunah went out, and bowed himselfe before the King on his face to the ground,
Arávna je pogledal in zagledal kralja ter njegove služabnike prihajati proti njemu. Arávna je odšel ven in se upognil pred kraljem na svoj obraz k tlom.
21 And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the King come to his seruant? Then Dauid answered, To bye the threshing floore of thee for to builde an altar vnto the Lord, that the plague may cease from the people.
Arávna je rekel: »Čemu je moj gospod kralj prišel k svojemu služabniku?« David je rekel: »Da od tebe kupim mlatišče, da zgradim oltar Gospodu, da bo kuga lahko ustavljena pred ljudstvom.«
22 Then Araunah saide vnto Dauid, Let my lord the King take and offer what seemeth him good in his eyes: beholde the oxen for the burnt offring, and charets, and the instruments of the oxen for wood.
Arávna je rekel Davidu: »Naj moj gospod kralj vzame in daruje, kar se mu zdi dobro. Glej, tukaj so voli za žgalno daritev in mlatilne priprave in druge volovske priprave za drva.«
23 (All these things did Araunah as a King giue vnto the King: and Araunah saide vnto the King, The Lord thy God be fauourable vnto thee)
Vse te stvari je Arávna, kakor kralj, dal kralju. In Arávna je rekel kralju: » Gospod, tvoj Bog, [naj] te sprejme.«
24 Then the King saide vnto Araunah, Not so, but I will bye it of thee at a price, and will not offer burnt offring vnto ye Lord my God of that which doeth cost me nothing. So Dauid bought the threshing floore, and the oxen for fiftie shekels of siluer.
Kralj pa je Arávnu rekel: »Ne; temveč bom to zagotovo kupil od tebe za ceno. Niti ne bom daroval žgalne daritve Gospodu, svojemu Bogu od tega, kar me nič ne stane.« Tako je David kupil mlatišče in vole za petdeset šeklov srebra.
25 And Dauid built there an altar vnto the Lord, and offred burnt offrings and peace offrings, and the Lord was appeased toward ye lande, and the plague ceased from Israel.
David je tam zgradil oltar Gospodu in daroval žgalne daritve in mirovne daritve. Tako je bil Gospod izprošen za deželo in kuga se je ustavila pred Izraelom.
