2 Samuel 13
1 It happened after this, that Absalom the son of David had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
Sidan hende denne tilburden: Absalom Davidsson hadde ei væn syster som heitte Tamar, og Amnon Davidsson lagde hugen til henne.
2 Amnon was so troubled that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do anything to her.
Ja Ammon pintest so, at han vart heiltupp sjuk av lyst til syster si; for ho var møy; og Ammon øygnde ingen utveg til å gjera henne noko.
3 But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah, David's brother. Now Jonadab was a very crafty man.
Amnon hadde ein ven, som heitte Jonadab, son til Simea, bror åt David. Jonadab var ein utkropen kar.
4 He said to him, "Why, son of the king, are you so sad from day to day? Won't you tell me?" Amnon said to him, "I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister."
Han spurde honom: «Kvi magrast du so, du kongsson, frå dag til annan? Fortel meg det?» Amnon svara: «Eg hev huglagt Tamar, syster åt Absalom, bror min!»
5 Jonadab said to him, "Lie down on your bed, and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, tell him, 'Please let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand.'"
Då sagde Jonadab til honom: «Legg deg sjuk på sengi di! Og når far din kjem og ser til deg, so bed honom: «Kjære, lat Tamar, syster mi, koma og laga maten åt meg! Lat henne laga til mat for augo mine, so eg ser på! Og lat meg eta av hennar hand!»»
6 So Amnon lay down and faked being sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, "Please let my sister Tamar come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand."
Amnon lagde seg og lest som han var sjuk. Kongen kom og såg til honom. Og Amnon bad kongen: «Kjære, lat Tamar, syster mi, koma og laga tvo kakor åt meg so eg ser på og fær eta av hennar hand!»
7 Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, "Go now to your brother Amnon and prepare food for him."
David sende då bod inn i huset til Tamar og bad henne: «Gakk til huset åt Amnon, bror din, og laga noko mat åt honom!»
8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes while he watched, and baked the cakes.
Tamar gjekk til huset åt Amnon, bror sin, der han låg til sengs. Ho tok deig og knoda, og laga kakorne so han såg på, og steikte deim.
9 She took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. Amnon said, "Have all men leave me." Every man went out from him.
So tok ho panna og hadde deim or for honom; men han vilde ikkje eta. So sagde Amnon: «Gakk ut alle mann!» Og dei so gjorde.
10 Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food into the room, that I may eat from your hand." Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the room to Amnon her brother.
So segjer han med Tamar: «Kom med maten her inn i kammerset, so eg fær eta av handi di!» Og Tamar tok kakorne ho hadde laga, og gjekk inn i kammerset til Amnon, bror sin.
11 When she had brought them near to him to eat, he took hold of her, and said to her, "Come, lie with me, my sister."
Men då ho bar deim fram åt honom, so han skulde eta, greip han fat i henne og sagde: «Kom og ligg med meg, syster mi!»
12 She answered him, "No, my brother, do not force me. For no such thing ought to be done in Israel. Do not do this folly.
Ho svara: «Nei, bror min! Du må ikkje skjemma meg! Sovore må ikkje henda i Israel! Gjer ikkje so stygg ei gjerning!
13 I, where would I carry my shame? And as for you, you will be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."
Kvar skulde eg gjera av meg med skammi? Og du sjølv vilde seinare heita eit styggeting i Israel. Tala fyrst med kongen! Han vil ikkje negta deg å få meg.»
14 However he would not listen to her voice; but being stronger than she was, he overpowered her and raped her.
Men han vilde ikkje lyda henne. Han valdtok henne, skjemde henne, låg med henne.
15 Then Amnon hated her with intense hatred, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Get up, go away."
Etterpå fekk Amnon brått ein øgjeleg illvilje til henne. Illviljen han åtte mot henne no, var endå meir ofseleg enn elsken han hadde havt til henne fyrr. «Ris upp og gakk med deg!» sagde Amnon til henne.
16 And Tamar said to him, "Don't, my brother, for this latter evil in sending me away is greater than the former thing that you did to me." But he would not listen to her.
Ho sagde til honom: «Ikkje auka skuldi med å gjera so stor ei ugjerning som å jaga meg! det vil vera endå verre enn det andre du hev gjort med meg.» Men han vilde ikkje høyra på henne,
17 Then he called the young man who served him, and said, "Send this one away from me, and bolt the door after her."
men ropa på drengen, som tente hjå honom: «Få henne der burt frå meg, ut på gata!» ropa han, «og læs døri etter henne!»
18 Now she was wearing an ornamented robe, for this was what the king's virgin daughters used to wear. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.
Ho gjekk i sid ermekjole; i sovorne kappor var kongsdøtterne klædde med dei var unge gjentor. Tenaren førde henne ut på gata og læste døri etter henne.
19 And Tamar took ashes and put them on her head, and tore the long robe she was wearing. And she put her hand on her head and went away, crying aloud as she went.
Då tok Tamar oska og hadde på hovudet, reiv sund ermekjolen ho gjekk i, lagde handi på hovudet og gjekk og øya seg i eino.
20 And her brother Absalom said to her, "Has Amnon your brother been with you? Be quiet for now, my sister. He is your brother. Do not take this too seriously." So Tamar, devastated, lived in her brother Absalom's house.
Absalom, bror hennar, spurde henne: «Hev Amnon, bror din, vore hjå deg? Teg deg no, syster! Han er bror din. Bry deg ikkje um dette!» Tamar heldt seg då heime hjå Absalom, bror sin, einsleg og yvergjevi.
21 But when king David heard of all these things, he was very angry. But he did not inflict pain on the spirit of his son Amnon, because he loved him, for he was his firstborn.
Då kong David spurde alt dette, loga harmen upp i honom.
22 Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had violated his sister Tamar.
Absalom sagde ingen ting med Amnon anten godt eller vondt. Men Absalom hata Amnon, for di han hadde skjemt Tamar, syster hans.
23 It happened after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal Hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.
Tvo år etter hadde Absalom saueklypping i Ba’al-Hasor attmed Efraim; og Absalom bad alle kongssønerne til gjester.
24 Absalom came to the king, and said, "See now, your servant has sheepshearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant."
Absalom gjekk då inn til kongen og sagde: «Tenaren din held saueklypping. Eg bed at kongen og tenarane hans vil vera med.»
25 The king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you." But he pleaded with him; however he would not go, but blessed him.
Kongen svara Absalom: «Nei, guten min! Me må ikkje vera med alle; det vert for mykje bry for deg.» Endå han naudbad honom, vilde han ikkje, men bad farvel med honom.
26 Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." The king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"
Då sagde Absalom: «So lat då i alle fall bror Amnon vera med!» Kongen spurde: «Kvifor nett han?»
27 But Absalom pleaded with him, and he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him. And Absalom prepared a feast like a king's feast.
Men då Absalom naudbad honom, let han Amnon og alle kongssønerne vera med.
28 And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, "Watch Amnon until he is in a good mood from the wine, and when I tell you, 'Strike Amnon,' then kill him. Do not be afraid. Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and brave."
Absalom baud drengjerne: «Sjå etter når Amnon vert lystig av vinen, og eg segjer: «Hogg til Amnon!» So drep honom hugheilt! eg tek ansvaret. Ver hugsterke, og vis de er dugande karar!»
29 So the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons got up, and each mounted his mule and fled.
Absaloms-drengjerne gjorde med Amnon som Absalom hadde bode. Då spratt dei upp alle kongssønerne, steig på muldyri sine og rømde.
30 And it happened, while they were on the way, that the news came to David, saying, "Absalom has struck down all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left."
Med dei endå var på vegen, fekk David høyra ei tiend um at Absalom hadde drepe alle kongssønerne, so ikkje ein einaste var att av deim.
31 Then the king got up and tore his clothes and lay down on the ground. And all the servants who were standing around him also tore their clothes.
Då reiste kongen seg og reiv sund klædi sine og lagde seg på golvet. Og alle tenarane som stod der, reiv og sund klædi sine.
32 But Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, "My lord the king must not think that they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for only Amnon is dead. For this has been Absalom's plan since the day that he raped his sister Tamar.
Men Jonadab, son åt Simea, bror åt David, tok til ords og sagde: «Herre, du må ikkje tru at dei hev drepe alle dei unge kongssønerne. Det er berre Amnon som er dåen. Eg hev lese ulukka på Absaloms munn alt frå den dagen då Amnon skjemde ut Tamar, syster hans.
33 Now therefore do not let my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead; for Amnon only is dead."
Herre konge! no må du ikkje gjera deg so ilt av det, at du trur alle kongssønerne er daude. Nei, det er berre Amnon som er daud.»
34 But Absalom fled. And the young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked, and he saw many men coming on the road behind him from the side of the mountain in the descent. And the watchman came and told the king, and said, "I have seen many men coming from the Horonan road by the side of the mountain."
Men Absalom flydde. Då vaktmannen såg ut, fekk han sjå mykje folk kom vegen ned fjellet attanfor.
35 Jonadab said to the king, "Look, the king's sons are coming. It is as your servant said."
Då sagde Jonadab til kongen: «Der kjem kongssønerne! Det er som eg sagde.»
36 It happened, as soon as he had finished speaking, that look, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept. The king also and all his servants wept bitterly.
Nett då han hadde tala ut, kom kongssønerne, og dei sette i og gret. Ogso kongen og alle tenarane storgret og stridgret.
37 And David mourned for his son every day.
Men Absalom flydde og for til Talmai Ammihudsson, kongen i Gesur. Og han syrgde yver son sin heile tidi.
38 And Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur, and was there three years.
Absalom flydde og for til Gesur, og heldt seg der i tri år.
39 And the spirit of the king longed to go to Absalom, for he was consoled about the death of Amnon.
Men kong David let vera å draga ut mot Absalom; han hadde lote trøysta seg i sorgi yver at Amnon var dåen.
