< 1 Samuel 26 >
1 And the Ziphites come to Saul at Gibeah, saying, “Is David not hiding himself in the height of Hachilah, on the front of the desert?”
Zífovci so prišli k Savlu v Gíbeo, rekoč: »Ali se David ne skriva na hribu Hahíla, ki je pred Ješimonom?«
2 And Saul rises, and goes down to the wilderness of Ziph, and with him [are] three thousand men, chosen ones of Israel, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
Potem se je Savel dvignil in odšel dol k Zifski divjini in s seboj je imel tri tisoč izbranih mož iz Izraela, da Davida poiščejo v Zifski divjini.
3 And Saul encamps in the height of Hachilah, which [is] on the front of the desert, by the way, and David is abiding in the wilderness, and he sees that Saul has come into the wilderness after him;
Savel je taboril na hribu Hahíla, ki je ob poti pred Ješimonom. Toda David je prebival v divjini in videl je, da je Savel prišel za njim v divjino.
4 and David sends spies, and knows that Saul has come to Nachon,
David je torej odposlal oglednike in razumel, da je Savel zagotovo prišel.
5 and David rises, and comes to the place where Saul has encamped, and David sees the place where Saul has lain, and Abner son of Ner, head of his host, and Saul is lying in the path, and the people are encamping around him.
David je vstal in prišel na kraj, kjer se je Savel utaboril in David je opazoval kraj, kjer sta se ulegla Savel in Abnêr, Nerov sin, poveljnik njegove vojske. Savel pa je ležal v okopu in ljudstvo je taborilo okoli njega.
6 And David answers and says to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, “Who goes down with me to Saul, to the camp?” And Abishai says, “I go down with you.”
Potem je David odgovoril in rekel Hetejcu Ahimélehu in Cerújinemu sinu Abišáju, Joábovemu bratu, rekoč: »Kdo bo odšel z menoj dol, k Savlu v tabor?« Abišáj je rekel: »Jaz bom odšel dol s teboj.«
7 And David comes—and Abishai—by night to the people, and behold, Saul is lying sleeping in the path, and his spear is pressed into the earth by his pillow, and Abner and the people are lying around him.
Tako sta David in Abišáj prišla ponoči k ljudstvu in glej, Savel je speč ležal znotraj okopa in njegova sulica zapičena v tla pri njegovem vzglavniku, toda Abnêr in ljudstvo so ležali naokoli njega.
8 And Abishai says to David, “God has shut up your enemy into your hand today; and now, please let me strike him with [the] spear, even into the earth, at once—and not repeat [it] to him.”
Potem je Abišáj rekel Davidu: »Bog je ta dan izročil tvoje sovražnike v tvojo roko. Zdaj naj ga torej udarim, prosim te, s sulico celo k zemlji in ne bom ga udaril drugič.«
9 And David says to Abishai, “Do not destroy him; for who has put forth his hand against the anointed of YHWH and been acquitted?”
David je rekel Abišáju: »Ne uniči ga, kajti kdo lahko iztegne svojo roko zoper Gospodovega maziljenca in je brez krivde?«
10 And David says, “YHWH lives; except YHWH strikes him, or his day comes that he has died, or he goes down into battle and has been consumed—
David je nadalje rekel: » Kakor Gospod živi, Gospod ga bo udaril, ali bo prišel njegov dan, da umre, ali [pa] se bo spustil v bitko in umrl.
11 far be it from me, by YHWH, from putting forth my hand against the anointed of YHWH; and now, please take the spear which [is] by his pillow, and the jug of water, and we go away.”
Gospod me obvaruj, da bi iztegnil svojo roko zoper Gospodovega maziljenca, toda, prosim te, vzemi sedaj sulico, ki je pri njegovem vzglavniku in vrč vode ter odidiva.«
12 And David takes the spear, and the jug of water by the pillow of Saul, and they go away, and there is none seeing, and there is none knowing, and there is none awaking, for all of them are sleeping, for a deep sleep [from] YHWH has fallen on them.
Tako je David vzel sulico in vrč vode izpred Savlovega vzglavnika in spravila sta se proč in noben človek tega ni videl niti ni tega spoznal niti se zbudil, kajti vsi so zaspali, ker je nanje padlo globoko spanje od Gospoda.
13 And David passes over to the other side, and stands on the top of the hill far off—great [is] the place between them;
Potem je David šel preko, na drugo stran in stal na vrhu oddaljenega hriba. Med njimi je bil velik prostor
14 and David calls to the people, and to Abner son of Ner, saying, “Do you not answer, Abner?” And Abner answers and says, “Who [are] you [who] have called to the king?”
in David je zaklical ljudstvu in Nerovemu sinu Abnêrju, rekoč: »Ne odgovarjaš, Abnêr?« Potem je Abnêr odgovoril in rekel: »Kdo si ti, ki kličeš h kralju?«
15 And David says to Abner, “Are you not a man? And who [is] like you in Israel? But why have you not watched over your lord the king? For one of the people had come in to destroy the king, your lord.
David je rekel Abnêrju: » Mar nisi ti hraber mož? In kdo je v Izraelu podoben tebi? Zakaj potem nisi varoval svojega gospoda kralja? Kajti tja je prišel nekdo izmed ljudstva, da uniči tvojega gospoda kralja.
16 This thing which you have done is not good; YHWH lives, but you [are] sons of death, in that you have not watched over your lord, over the anointed of YHWH; and now, see where the king’s spear [is], and the jug of water which [is] by his pillow.”
Ta stvar, ki si jo storil, ni dobra. Kakor živi Gospod, vredni ste umreti, ker niste varovali svojega gospodarja, Gospodovega maziljenca. In sedaj poglej, kje je kraljeva sulica in vrč vode, ki je bil pri njegovem vzglavniku.«
17 And Saul discerns the voice of David and says, “Is this your voice, my son David?” And David says, “My voice, my lord, O king!”
Savel je prepoznal Davidov glas in rekel: » Ali je to tvoj glas, moj sin David?« David je rekel: » To je moj glas, moj gospod, oh kralj.«
18 And he says, “Why [is] this—my lord is pursuing after his servant? For what have I done, and what evil [is] in my hand?
Rekel je: »Zakaj moj gospod tako zasleduje svojega služabnika? Kaj sem storil? Ali kakšno zlo je v moji roki?
19 And now, please let my lord the king hear the words of his servant: if YHWH has moved you against me, let Him accept a present; but if [merely] the sons of men, they [are] cursed before YHWH, for today they have cast me out from being admitted into the inheritance of YHWH, saying, Go, serve other gods.
Zdaj te torej prosim, naj moj gospod kralj posluša besede svojega služabnika. Če te je Gospod razvnel zoper mene, naj sprejme daritev, toda če so to človeški otroci, naj bodo prekleti pred Gospodom, kajti danes so me pognali ven, pred ostajanjem v Gospodovi dediščini, rekoč: ›Pojdi, služi drugim bogovom.‹
20 And now, do not let my blood fall to the earth before the face of YHWH, for the king of Israel has come out to seek one flea, as [one] pursues the partridge in mountains.”
Zdaj naj torej moja kri ne pade na tla pred Gospodovim obrazom, kajti Izraelov kralj je prišel ven, da išče bolho, kakor ko nekdo lovi jerebico v gorah.«
21 And Saul says, “I have sinned; return, my son David, for I do evil to you no more, because that my soul has been precious in your eyes this day; behold, I have acted foolishly, and err very greatly.”
Potem je Savel rekel: »Grešil sem. Vrni se, moj sin David, kajti ne bom ti več škodil, ker je bila ta dan moja duša dragocena v tvojih očeh. Glej igral sem bedaka in se silno motil.«
22 And David answers and says, “Behold, the king’s spear; and let one of the young men pass over, and receive it;
David je odgovoril in rekel: »Poglej kraljevo sulico! In naj nekdo izmed mladeničev pride čez ter jo vzame.
23 and YHWH turns each back to his righteousness and his faithfulness, in that YHWH has given you into [my] hand today, and I have not been willing to put forth my hand against the anointed of YHWH,
Gospod [naj] vsakemu možu povrne njegovo pravičnost in njegovo zvestobo, kajti Gospod te je ta dan izročil v mojo roko, toda svoje roke nisem hotel iztegniti zoper Gospodovega maziljenca.
24 and behold, as your soul has been great in my eyes this day, so is my soul great in the eyes of YHWH, and He delivers me out of all distress.”
Glej, kakor je bilo tvoje življenje ta dan zelo cenjeno v mojih očeh, tako naj bo moje življenje zelo cenjeno v Gospodovih očeh in naj me osvobodi iz vse stiske.«
25 And Saul says to David, “Blessed [are] you, my son David, also working you work, and also prevailing you prevail.” And David goes on his way, and Saul has turned back to his place.
Potem je Savel rekel Davidu: »Blagoslovljen bodi ti, moj sin David. Delal boš oboje, velike stvari in vendar boš tudi prevladal.« Tako je David odšel na svojo pot in Savel se je vrnil na svoj kraj.
