< 2 Samuel 14 >
1 And Joab son of Zeruial knows that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,
Torej Cerújin sin Joáb je zaznal, da je bilo kraljevo srce [nagnjeno] k Absalomu.
2 and Joab sends to Tekoah, and takes a wise woman from there, and says to her, “Please feign yourself a mourner, and now put on garments of mourning, and do not anoint yourself with oil, and you have been as a woman mourning for the dead [for] these many days,
Joáb je poslal v Tekóo in od tam privedel modro žensko ter ji rekel: »Prosim te, hlini se, da si žalovalka in sedaj si nadeni žalovalno obleko in se ne mazili z oljem, temveč bodi kakor ženska, ki je dolgo časa žalovala za mrtvim
3 and you have gone to the king, and spoken to him, according to this word”; and Joab puts the words into her mouth.
in pojdi h kralju in mu govori na ta način.« Tako je Joáb položil besede v njena usta.
4 And the woman of Tekoah speaks to the king, and falls on her face to the earth, and pays respect, and says, “Save, O king.”
Ko je ženska iz Tekóe govorila kralju, je padla na svoj obraz do tal in se globoko priklonila ter rekla: »Pomagaj, oh kralj.«
5 And the king says to her, “What do you [want]?” And she says, “I [am] truly a widow woman, and my husband dies,
Kralj ji je rekel: »Kaj te pesti?« Odgovorila je: »Res sem vdova in moj soprog je mrtev.
6 and your maidservant has two sons; and both of them strive in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and one strikes the other, and puts him to death;
Tvoja pomočnica je imela dva sinova in skupaj sta se prepirala na polju in tam ni bilo nobenega, da ju loči, temveč je eden udaril drugega in ga usmrtil.
7 and behold, the whole family has risen against your maidservant, and say, Give up him who strikes his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he has slain, and we also destroy the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left—so as not to set a name and remnant on the face of the ground for my husband.”
Glej, celotna družina je vstala zoper tvojo pomočnico in rekli so: ›Izroči tega, ki je usmrtil svojega brata, da ga bomo lahko ubili za življenje njegovega brata, ki ga je usmrtil in tudi dediča bomo uničili.‹ Tako bodo pogasili moj ogorek, ki je ostal in mojemu soprogu ne bodo pustili niti imena niti ostanka na tej zemlji.«
8 And the king says to the woman, “Go to your house, and I give charge concerning you.”
Kralj je rekel ženski: »Pojdi k svoji hiši in glede tebe dal bom zadolžitev.«
9 And the woman of Tekoah says to the king, “On me, my lord, O king, [is] the iniquity, and on the house of my father; and the king and his throne [are] innocent.”
Ženska iz Tekóe je rekla kralju: »Moj gospod, oh kralj, krivičnost bodi na meni in na hiši mojega očeta, kralj in njegov prestol pa naj bosta brez krivde.«
10 And the king says, “He who speaks to you, and you have brought him to me, then he does not add to come against you anymore.”
Kralj je rekel: »Kdorkoli ti karkoli reče, ga privedi k meni in ne bo se te več dotaknil.«
11 And she says, “Please let the king remember by your God YHWH, that the redeemer of blood does not add to destroy, and they do not destroy my son”; and he says, “YHWH lives; if there falls [even one] hair of your son to the earth.”
Potem je rekla: »Prosim te, naj se kralj spomni Gospoda, svojega Boga, da ti nočeš trpeti, da krvni maščevalci še naprej uničujejo, da ne bi uničili mojega sina.« Rekel je: »Kakor Gospod živi niti en las tvojega sina ne bo padel k zemlji.«
12 And the woman says, “Please let your maidservant speak a word to my lord the king”; and he says, “Speak.”
Potem je ženska rekla: »Naj tvoja pomočnica, prosim te, spregovori eno besedo mojemu gospodu kralju.« In ta je rekel: »Povej.«
13 And the woman says, “And why have you thought thus concerning the people of God? Indeed, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king has not brought back his outcast;
Ženska je rekla: »Zakaj si potem mislil storiti takšno stvar zoper Božje ljudstvo? Kajti kralj govori to stvar kakor nekdo, ki je pomanjkljiv, v tem, da kralj ne privede ponovno domov svojega pregnanega.
14 for we surely die, and [are] as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God does not accept a person, and has devised plans in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.
Kajti mi moramo umreti in smo kakor voda, razlita na tla, ki ne more biti ponovno zbrana niti Bog ne upošteva nobene osebe, vendar snuje način, da njegov pregnani ne bo izključen od njega.
15 And now that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, [it is] because the people made me afraid, and your maidservant says, Please let me speak to the king; it may be the king does the word of his handmaid,
Zdaj torej, ko sem prišla, da o tej stvari govorim mojemu gospodu kralju, je to zato, ker me je ljudstvo prestrašilo. Tvoja pomočnica je rekla: ›Spregovorila bom torej kralju. Lahko se zgodi, da bo kralj izpolnil zahtevo svoje pomočnice.‹
16 for the king listens to deliver his handmaid out of the paw of the man [seeking] to destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God,
Kajti kralj bo slišal, da svojo pomočnico osvobodi iz roke človeka, ki hoče skupaj uničiti tako mene in mojega sina iz Božje dediščine.
17 and your maidservant says, Please let the word of my lord the king be for ease; for as a messenger of God so [is] my lord the king, to understand the good and the evil; and your God YHWH is with you.”
Potem je tvoja pomočnica rekla Gospodu: ›Beseda mojega gospoda kralja bo sedaj tolažilna, kajti kakor angel od Boga, tako je moj gospod kralj, da razlikuje dobro in slabo, zato bo Gospod, tvoj Bog, s teboj.‹«
18 And the king answers and says to the woman, “Please do not hide from me the thing that I am asking you”; and the woman says, “Please let my lord the king speak.”
Potem je kralj ženski odgovoril in rekel: »Ne skrivaj pred menoj, prosim te, stvari, ki jo bom vprašal.« Ženska je rekla: »Naj moj gospod kralj sedaj spregovori.«
19 And the king says, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” And the woman answers and says, “Your soul lives, my lord, O king, none [turn] to the right or to the left from all that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab commanded me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your maidservant.
Kralj je rekel: » Mar ni v vsem tem s teboj Joábova roka?« Ženska je odgovorila ter rekla: » Kakor živi tvoja duša, moj gospod kralj, nihče se ne more izogniti ne na desno ne na levo od tega, kar je moj gospod kralj govoril, kajti tvoj služabnik Joáb mi je zaukazal in on je položil vse te besede v usta tvoje pomočnice,
20 Your servant Joab has done this thing in order to bring around the appearance of the thing, and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of a messenger of God, to know all that [is] in the land.”
da privleče na dan to obliko govora, je tvoj služabnik Joáb storil to stvar. In moj gospod je moder, glede na modrost Božjega angela, da ve vse stvari, ki so na zemlji.«
21 And the king says to Joab, “Now behold, you have done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
Kralj je rekel Joábu: »Glej torej, jaz sem storil to stvar, zato pojdi, ponovno privedi mladeniča Absaloma.«
22 And Joab falls on his face to the earth, and pays respect, and blesses the king, and Joab says, “Today your servant has known that I have found grace in your eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king has done the word of his servant.”
Joáb je padel k tlom, na svoj obraz, se upognil in zahvalil kralju in Joáb je rekel: »Danes tvoj služabnik vé, da sem našel milost v tvojem pogledu, moj gospod, oh kralj, v tem, da je kralj izpolnil zahtevo svojega služabnika.«
23 And Joab rises and goes to Geshur, and brings in Absalom to Jerusalem,
Tako je Joáb vstal in odšel v Gešur in Absaloma privedel v Jeruzalem.
24 and the king says, “Let him turn around to his house, and he does not see my face.” And Absalom turns around to his house, and he has not seen the face of the king.
Kralj je rekel: »Naj se obrne k svoji lastni hiši in naj ne vidi mojega obraza.« Tako se je Absalom vrnil k svoji lastni hiši in ni videl kraljevega obraza.
25 And there was no man [so] beautiful in all Israel like Absalom, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even to his crown there was no blemish in him;
Toda v vsem Izraelu ni bilo nikogar, da bi bil tako zelo hvaljen zaradi svoje lepote kakor Absalom. Od podplata svojega stopala, celo do krone njegove glave, ni bilo na njem nobenega madeža.
26 and in his shaving his head—and it has been at the end of year by year that he shaves [it], for it [is] heavy on him, and he has shaved it—he has even weighed out the hair of his head—two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.
In ko je ostrigel svojo glavo (kajti ob koncu vsakega leta si jo je ostrigel, ker so bili lasje na njem težki, zato jo je ostrigel) si je stehtal lase svoje glave, dvesto šeklov po kraljevi teži.
27 And there are born to Absalom three sons and one daughter, and her name [is] Tamar; she was a woman of beautiful appearance.
Absalomu so se tam rodili trije sinovi in ena hči, ki ji je bilo ime Tamara. Bila je ženska lepega obličja.
28 And Absalom dwells in Jerusalem [for] two years of days, and he has not seen the face of the king;
Tako je Absalom dve polni leti prebival v Jeruzalemu in ni videl kraljevega obraza.
29 and Absalom sends to Joab, to send him to the king, and he has not been willing to come to him; and he sends again a second time, and he has not been willing to come.
Zato je Absalom poslal po Joába, da ga pošlje h kralju, toda ta ni hotel priti k njemu in ko je drugič ponovno poslal, ta ni hotel priti.
30 And he says to his servants, “See, the portion of Joab [is] by the side of mine, and he has barley there; go and burn it with fire”; and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.
Zato je rekel svojim služabnikom: »Glejte, Joábovo polje je v bližini mojega in tam ima ječmen. Pojdite in ga požgite.« In Absalomovi služabniki so zažgali polje.
31 And Joab rises and comes to Absalom in the house, and says to him, “Why have your servants burned the portion that I have with fire?”
Potem je Joáb vstal in prišel k Absalomu v njegovo hišo ter mu rekel: »Zakaj so tvoji služabniki zažgali moje polje?«
32 And Absalom says to Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, and I send you to the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? [It was] good for me while I [was] there—and now, let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me then you have put me to death.”
Absalom je odgovoril Joábu: »Glej, poslal sem k tebi, rekoč: ›Pridi sèm, da te lahko pošljem h kralju, da rečem: ›Zakaj sem prišel iz Gešurja?‹‹ Zame bi bilo dobro, da bi bil še vedno tam. Sedaj mi torej pusti videti kraljev obraz in če bo kakršnakoli krivičnost v meni, naj me ubije.«
33 And Joab comes to the king, and declares [it] to him, and he calls to Absalom, and he comes to the king, and bows himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king gives a kiss to Absalom.
Tako je Joáb prišel h kralju in mu povedal in ko je dal poklicati Absaloma, je ta prišel h kralju in se pred kraljem priklonil na svoj obraz do tal in kralj je poljubil Absaloma.
