< 1 Samuel 17 >

1 Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and camped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.
Torej Filistejci so zbrali skupaj svoje vojske za boj in zbrani so bili skupaj pri Sohóju, ki pripada Judu in se utaborili med Sohójem in Azéko, v Efes Damímu.
2 Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and camped in the Valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
Savel in Izraelovi možje so bili zbrani skupaj in se utaborili poleg doline Elá in se postrojili v boj zoper Filistejce.
3 The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
Filistejci so stali na gori na eni strani, Izrael pa je stal na gori na drugi strani in med njimi je bila dolina.
4 There went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six feet eight inches.
Iz tabora Filistejcev je prišel šampion iz Gata, po imenu Goljat, katerega višina je bila šest komolcev in pedenj.
5 And he had a helmet on his head, and wore bronze scale-armor. And the weight of the bronze armor was five thousand shekels.
Na svoji glavi je imel čelado iz brona in oborožen je bil z verižnim plaščem. Teža plašča je bila pet tisoč šeklov brona
6 And he had bronze armor on his shins, and a bronze javelin was slung over his shoulders.
Na svojih nogah je imel bronaste golenice in okrogel ščit iz brona med svojimi rameni.
7 Now the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and its blade weighed six hundred iron shekels, and his shield bearer went in front of him.
Palica njegove sulice je bila podobna tkalčevemu brunu in vrh njegove sulice je tehtal šeststo šeklov železa in nekdo, ki je nosil ščit, je šel pred njim.
8 He stood and shouted to the armies of Israel, and said to them, "Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
Stal je in klical Izraelovim vojskam ter jim rekel: »Zakaj ste prišli ven, da se postrojite za boj? Mar nisem jaz Filistejec, vi pa Savlovi služabniki? Izberite zase moža in naj pride dol k meni.
9 If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants; but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then you will be our servants, and serve us."
Če se je zmožen bojevati z menoj in me ubiti, potem bomo mi vaši služabniki, toda če prevladam zoper njega in ga ubijem, potem boste vi naši služabniki in nam služili.«
10 The Philistine said, "I defy the armies of Israel this day. Give me a man, that we may fight together."
Filistejec je rekel: »Danes izzivam Izraelove vojske. Dajte mi človeka, da se lahko skupaj bojujeva.«
11 When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
Ko so Savel in ves Izrael slišali te Filistejčeve besede, so bili zaprepadeni in silno prestrašeni.
12 Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. And in the days of Saul the man was old and advanced in years.
Torej David je bil sin tega Efratejca iz Judovega Betlehema, katerega ime je bilo Jese. Ta je imel osem sinov. V Savlovih dneh je mož odšel med može za starca.
13 The three eldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle. And the names of his sons who went to the battle were Eliab, the firstborn, and Abinadab, the second, and Shimeah, the third.
Trije najstarejši Jesejevi sinovi so odšli in Savlu sledili v bitko. Imena njegovih treh sinov, ki so šli v bitko, so bila Eliáb, prvorojenec in poleg njega Abinadáb in tretji Šamá.
14 David was the youngest; and the three eldest followed Saul.
David je bil najmlajši in trije starejši so sledili Savlu.
15 Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.
Toda David je šel in se vrnil od Savla, da pri Betlehemu pase ovce svojega očeta.
16 The Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
Filistejec se je približal zjutraj in zvečer in se nastavljal štirideset dni.
17 Then Jesse said to David, "Now take for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp and give them to your brothers;
Jese je svojemu sinu Davidu rekel: »Vzemi sedaj za svoje brate škaf tega praženega zrnja in teh deset hlebov ter steci v tabor k svojim bratom
18 and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news."
in teh deset sirov odnesi k poveljniku njihove tisočnije in poglej, kako se imajo tvoji bratje in vzemi njihovo jamstvo.«
19 Now Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.
Torej Savel in oni in vsi Izraelovi možje so bili v dolini Elá, boreč se s Filistejci.
20 So David arose early in the morning and left the flock with a keeper and took and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the perimeter of the camp as the army was marching out to its battle formation and shouting the war cry.
David je vstal zgodaj zjutraj in pustil ovce s čuvajem in vzel ter odšel, kakor mu je Jese zapovedal. Prišel je k okopu, medtem ko je šla vojska naprej v boj in zavpila za boj.
21 And Israel and the Philistines lined up in battle formation, army against army.
Kajti Izrael in Filistejci so se postrojili v bitko, vojska zoper vojsko.
22 And David left his supplies in the care of the attendant, and ran to the army and came and greeted his brothers.
David je pustil svoj voz v roki čuvaja voza, stekel v vojsko, prišel in pozdravil svoje brate.
23 As he talked with them, look, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the ranks of the Philistines, and spoke according to the same words: and David heard them.
Medtem ko je govoril z njimi, glej, je prišel šampion, Filistejec iz Gata, po imenu Goljat, iz vojske Filistejcev in govoril glede na te iste besede in David jih je slišal.
24 All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were terrified.
Ko so vsi Izraelovi možje videli moža, so zbežali pred njim in bili so boleče prestrašeni.
25 The men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. It shall be, that the man who kills him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house exempt in Israel."
Možje iz Izraela so rekli: »Ali ste videli tega moža, ki je prišel gor? Zagotovo je prišel gor, da Izraela izpostavi sramotenju. Zgodilo se bo, da bo moža, ki ga ubije, kralj obogatil z velikimi bogastvi in dal mu bo svojo hčer in osvobodil hišo njegovega očeta v Izraelu.«
26 David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, "What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine, and takes away this disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
David je spregovoril možem, ki so stali poleg njega, rekoč: »Kaj bo storjeno možu, ki ubije tega Filistejca in odvzame grajo od Izraela? Kajti kdo je ta neobrezani Filistejec, da bi izpostavljal sramotenju vojske živega Boga?«
27 The people answered him in this way, saying, "So shall it be done to the man who kills him."
Ljudstvo mu je odgovorilo na ta način, rekoč: »Tako bo storjeno možu, ki ga ubije.«
28 Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, "Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your insolence and the wickedness of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle."
Njegov najstarejši brat Eliáb pa je slišal, ko je govoril možem. Eliábova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Davida in rekel je: »Zakaj si prišel sèm dol? In s kom si pustil tistih nekaj ovc v divjini? Poznam tvojo ošabnost in porednost tvojega srca, kajti prišel si dol, da bi lahko videl bitko.«
29 David said, "What have I now done? Is there not a cause?"
David je rekel: »Kaj sem torej storil? Mar ni tam razlog?«
30 Then he turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way, and they gave him an answer as before.
Od njega se je obrnil k drugemu in mu govoril na isti način, ljudstvo pa mu je ponovno odgovorilo po prejšnjem načinu.
31 When the words that David spoke were overheard, they repeated them before Saul; and he sent for him.
Ko so bile slišane besede, ki jih je govoril David, so jih ponovili pred Savlom. In ta je poslal ponj.
32 David said to Saul, "Let not my lord's heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."
David je rekel Savlu: »Naj srce nobenega človeka ne upade zaradi njega. Tvoj služabnik bo šel in se boril s tem Filistejcem.«
33 Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth."
Savel je rekel Davidu: »Ti nisi zmožen iti zoper tega Filistejca, da se boriš z njim, kajti ti si še mladostnik, on pa je bojevnik od svoje mladosti.«
34 David said to Saul, "Your servant was keeping his father's sheep; and when a lion or a bear came, and took a lamb out of the flock,
David je rekel Savlu: »Tvoj služabnik je pasel ovce svojega očeta in prišel je lev in medved in vzel jagnje iz tropa.
35 I went out after him, and struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and struck him, and killed him.
Odšel sem ven za njim, ga udaril in to osvobodil iz njegovih ust. Ko se je dvignil zoper mene, sem ga ujel za njegovo grivo, ga udaril in usmrtil.
36 Your servant struck both the lion and the bear, and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them. Should I not go and smite him, and remove this day a disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised one, since he has defied the armies of the living God?
Tvoj služabnik je usmrtil tako leva kakor medveda in ta neobrezani Filistejec bo kakor eden izmed njiju, glede na to, da je izzival vojske živega Boga.«
37 The LORD who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine." Saul said to David, "Go; and the LORD shall be with you."
Poleg tega je David rekel: » Gospod, ki me je osvobodil iz levje šape in iz medvedje šape, on me bo osvobodil iz roke tega Filistejca.« In Savel je rekel Davidu: »Pojdi in Gospod bodi s teboj.«
38 And he dressed David in a uniform with a bronze helmet on his head, and he clothed him with a coat of armor.
Savel je Davida oborožil s svojo bojno opremo in mu na glavo nadel bronasto čelado. Prav tako ga je oborožil z verižnim plaščem.
39 And David strapped on his sword over his uniform, and after he had tried once or twice to walk, then David said to Saul, "I can't walk with these, for I am not used to them." So they took them off him.
David je opasal svoj meč na svojo bojno opremo in poskušal oditi, kajti tega ni preizkusil. David je rekel Savlu: »Ne morem iti s tem, kajti teh [stvari] nisem preizkusil.« In David jih je odložil iz sebe.
40 Then he took his staff in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the wadi, and put them in the shepherd's bag, in the pouch. And his sling was in his hand, and he approached the Philistine.
Vzel je svojo palico v svojo roko in si izbral pet gladkih kamnov iz potoka in jih položil v pastirsko torbo, ki jo je imel, celo v malho in njegova prača je bila v njegovi roki in približal se je Filistejcu.
41 So the Philistine moved forward and came near to David, and his shield-bearer was in front of him.
Filistejec je prišel in se približal Davidu in mož, ki je nosil ščit, je šel pred njim.
42 When the Philistine looked and saw David, he despised him, for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and handsome in appearance.
Ko je Filistejec pogledal naokoli in zagledal Davida, ga je preziral, kajti bil je šele mladostnik, rdečkast in lepega obličja.
43 The Philistine said to David, "Am I a dog, that you come to me with a stick and stones?" And David said, "No, worse than a dog." And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Filistejec je Davidu rekel: » Sem mar pes, da prihajaš k meni s palicami?« Filistejec je Davida preklel pri svojih bogovih.
44 The Philistine said to David, "Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the field."
Filistejec je rekel Davidu: »Pridi k meni in tvoje meso bom izročil perjadi neba in živalim polja.«
45 Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a javelin: but I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
Potem je David rekel Filistejcu: »Ti prihajaš k meni z mečem, s sulico in s ščitom, toda jaz prihajam k tebi v imenu Gospoda nad bojevniki, Boga Izraelovih vojsk, ki si ga izpostavljal sramotenju.
46 Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand; and I will strike you, and take your head from off you. And I will give your corpse and the corpses of the Philistine army this very day to the birds of the air, and to the wild animals of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
Ta dan te bo Gospod izročil v mojo roko in udaril te bom in tvojo glavo vzel iz tebe in trupla vojske Filistejcev bom ta dan izročil zračni perjadi in divjim zverem zemlje, da bo vsa zemlja lahko vedela, da je Bog v Izraelu.
47 and that all this assembly may know that the LORD doesn't save with sword and spear: for the battle is the LORD's, and he will give you into our hand."
Ves ta zbor bo vedel, da Gospod ne rešuje z mečem in sulico, kajti boj je Gospodov in on vas bo izročil v naše roke.«
48 It happened, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.
Pripetilo se je, ko je Filistejec vstal in prišel ter se približal, da sreča Davida, da je David pohitel in stekel proti vojski, da sreča Filistejca.
49 David put his hand in his bag, took a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead; and the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.
David je svojo roko položil v svojo torbo, od tam vzel kamen, ga zalučal in udaril Filistejca v njegovo čelo, da je kamen potonil v njegovo čelo in ta je padel na svoj obraz k zemlji.
50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.
Tako je David prevladal nad Filistejcem s pračo in s kamnom in Filistejca udaril in ubil, pa vendar v Davidovi roki ni bilo meča.
51 Then David ran and stood beside him, and took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.
Zato je David stekel in obstal nad Filistejcem, vzel njegov meč, ga izvlekel iz njegove nožnice, ga ubil in z njim odsekal njegovo glavo. Ko so Filistejci videli, da je bil njihov šampion mrtev, so pobegnili.
52 The men of Israel and of Judah arose, and shouted, and pursued them as far as Gath, and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath, and to Ekron.
Možje iz Izraela in možje iz Juda so vstali, zavpili in zasledovali Filistejce, dokler ne prideš do doline in k velikim vratom Ekróna. Ranjeni izmed Filistejcev so padali dol po poti k Šaarájimu, celo do Gata in do Ekróna.
53 The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.
Izraelovi otroci so se vrnili iz preganjanja za Filistejci in oplenili njihove šotore.
54 David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armor in his tent.
David je vzel glavo Filistejca in jo prinesel v Jeruzalem, toda njegovo bojno opremo je odložil v svoj šotor.
55 When Saul saw David go out to meet the Philistine, he said to Abner, the commander of the army, "Whose son is that boy?" And Abner said, "As your soul lives, O king, I don't know."
Ko je Savel zagledal Davida iti naprej zoper Filistejca, je rekel Abnêrju, poveljniku vojske: »Abnêr, čigav sin je ta mladostnik?« Abnêr je rekel: » Kakor živi tvoja duša, oh kralj, ne morem povedati.«
56 The king said, "Inquire whose son that young man is."
Kralj je rekel: »Poizvedi, čigav sin je ta najstnik.«
57 As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
Ko se je David vrnil iz uboja Filistejca, ga je Abnêr vzel in privedel pred Savla, s Filistejčevo glavo v svoji roki.
58 Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young man?" David answered, "I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."
Savel mu je rekel: »Čigav sin si ti, ti mladenič?« David je odgovoril: »Jaz sem sin tvojega služabnika Betlehemca Jeseja.«
