2 Samuel 1

1 It happened after the death of Saul, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and he stayed two days in Ziklag.

Pripetilo se je torej, po Savlovi smrti, ko se je David vrnil iz pokola Amalečanov in je David dva dni prebival v Ciklágu

2 It happened on the third day, that, look, a man came out of the camp from Saul, with his clothes torn and dirt on his head. And it came about when he came to David that he fell to the ground and paid homage.

in tretji dan se je zgodilo celo, da je, glej, mož prišel iz tabora od Savla s svojimi pretrganimi oblačili in zemlja je bila na njegovi glavi. In bilo je tako, ko je prišel k Davidu, da je padel k tlom in se globoko priklonil.

3 David said to him, "Where do you come from?" He said to him, "I have escaped out of the camp of Israel."

David mu je rekel: »Od kod prihajaš?« Rekel mu je: »Pobegnil sem iz tabora Izraelcev.«

4 David said to him, "How did it go? Please tell me." He answered, "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."

David mu je rekel: »Kako je šla zadeva? Prosim te, povej mi.« Odgovoril je: »Da je ljudstvo pobegnilo iz bitke in tudi številni izmed ljudstva so padli in so mrtvi in tudi Savel in njegov sin Jonatan sta mrtva.«

5 David said to the young man who had told him this, "How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?"

David je rekel mladeniču, ki mu je povedal: »Kako veš, da sta Savel in njegov sin Jonatan mrtva?«

6 Then the young man replied, "I happened to be on Mount Gilboa and saw Saul leaning on his spear. And look, the chariots and the horsemen were closing in on him.

Mladenič, ki mu je povedal, je rekel: »Kakor sem se naključno znašel na gori Gilbói, glej, Savel se je naslanjal na svojo sulico in glej, bojni vozovi in konjeniki so tesno sledili za njim.«

7 When he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. I answered, 'Here I am.'

Ko je pogledal za seboj, me je videl in me poklical k sebi. Odgovoril sem: »Tukaj sem.«

8 He said to me, 'Who are you?' I answered him, 'I am an Amalekite.'

Rekel mi je: »Kdo si?« Odgovoril sem mu: »Amálečan sem.«

9 He said to me, 'Please stand beside me, and kill me; for anguish has taken hold of me, yet there is life in me still.'

Ponovno mi je rekel: »Stoj, prosim te, nad menoj in me ubij, kajti tesnoba je prišla nadme, ker je moje življenje še celo v meni.«

10 So I stood beside him, and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. Then I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord."

Tako sem stopil k njemu in ga usmrtil, ker sem bil prepričan, da potem, ko je padel, ne bi mogel živeti in vzel sem krono, ki je bila na njegovi glavi ter zapestnico, ki je bila na njegovem laktu ter ju prinesel sèm k svojemu gospodu.

11 Then David grabbed his clothes and tore them, and all the men with him did the same.

Potem je David prijel svoja oblačila in jih raztrgal in prav tako vsi možje, ki so bili z njim

12 They mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of YHWH, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword.

in žalovali so, jokali in se do večera postili za Savlom in za njegovim sinom Jonatanom in za Gospodovim ljudstvom in za Izraelovo hišo, ker so padli pod mečem.

13 David said to the young man who had told him, "Where are you from?" He answered, "I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite."

David je rekel mladeniču, ki mu je povedal: »Od kod si?« Odgovoril je: »Jaz sem sin tujca, Amálečana.«

14 David said to him, "How is it that you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy YHWH's anointed?"

David mu je rekel: »Kako se nisi bal iztegniti svoje roke, da uničiš Gospodovega maziljenca?«

15 David called one of the young men, and said, "Go near, and fall on him." He struck him, so that he died.

David je poklical enega izmed mladeničev ter rekel: »Približaj se in padi nanj.« In ta ga je udaril, da je umrl.

16 David said to him, "Your blood is on your head, for your mouth has testified against you, saying, 'I have killed YHWH's anointed.'"

David mu je rekel: »Tvoja kri bodi na tvoji glavi, kajti tvoja usta so pričala zoper tebe, rekoč: ›Umoril sem Gospodovega maziljenca.‹«

17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son,

David je s tem žalovanjem žaloval nad Savlom in nad njegovim sinom Jonatanom.

18 and said it should be taught to the people of Judah. Look, it is written in the book of Jashar.

(Prav tako je zaukazal, naj Judove otroke učijo uporabo loka. Glej, to je napisano v Jasherjevi knjigi.)

19 "Your glory, Israel, is slain on your high places. How the mighty have fallen.

»Izraelova lepota je umorjena na tvojih visokih krajih. Kako so padli mogočni!

20 Do not tell it in Gath. Do not publish it in the streets of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised celebrate.

Ne povejte tega v Gatu, ne razglašajte tega na Aškelónskih ulicah, da se ne bi filistejske hčere veselile, da ne bi hčere neobrezancev slavile.

21 You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew nor rain on you, nor fields of offerings. For there the shield of the mighty was dishonored. The shield of Saul, no longer anointed with oil.

Ve gore Gilbóe, naj tam ne bo nobene rose niti naj tam ne bo dežja nad vami niti nobenih polj za darovanja, kajti ščit mogočnega je podlo odvržen, Savlov ščit, kakor če ne bi bil maziljen z oljem.

22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, Jonathan's bow did not retreat. Saul's sword did not return empty.

Od krvi pobitih, od maščobe mogočnih, se Jonatanov lok ni obrnil nazaj in Savlov meč se ni vrnil prazen.

23 Saul and Jonathan, beloved and lovely, not separated. Lovely in their life, and in their death they were not separated. They were swifter than eagles. They were stronger than lions.

Savel in Jonatan sta bila očarljiva in prijetna v svojih življenjih in v svoji smrti nista bila ločena. Hitrejša sta bila kakor orli, močnejša sta bila kakor levi.

24 You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you luxuriously in scarlet, who put ornaments of gold on your clothing.

Ve hčere izraelske, jokajte nad Savlom, ki vas je oblekel v škrlat, z drugimi nasladami, ki je na vaše obleke nadel ornamente iz zlata.

25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle. Jonathan is slain on your high places.

Kako so mogočni padli v sredi bitke! Oh Jonatan, umorjen si bil na svojih visokih krajih.

26 I grieve for you, my brother. You have been very pleasant to me. Your love for me was a wonder, more than the love of women.

Žalosten sem zaradi tebe, moj brat Jonatan. Zelo prijeten si mi bil. Tvoja ljubezen do mene je bila čudovita, presegajoča ljubezen žensk.

27 How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished."

Kako so mogočni padli in so uničena bojna orožja.«
