2 Samuel 11
1 And it came to pass, at the return of the year, at the time when kings go out [to battle], that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem.
Pripetilo se je, potem ko je minilo leto, ob času, ko gredo kralji na bitko, da je David poslal Joába in z njim svoje služabnike in ves Izrael in uničili so Amónove otroke in oblegali Rabo. Toda David se je še vedno zadrževal v Jeruzalemu.
2 And it came to pass at eventide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.
Ob večernem času se je pripetilo, da se je David dvignil iz svoje postelje in hodil po strehi kraljeve hiše in s strehe je videl žensko, ki se je umivala in ženska je bila na pogled zelo krasna.
3 And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?
David je poslal in poizvedel za žensko. Nekdo je rekel: » Mar ni to Batšéba, Eliámova hči, žena Hetejca Urijája?«
4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; (for she was purified from her uncleanness; ) and she returned unto her house.
David je poslal poslance in jo vzel. Vstopila je k njemu in ležal je z njo, kajti očiščena je bila od svoje nečistosti in vrnila se je v svojo hišo.
5 And the woman conceived; and she sent and told David, and said, I am with child.
Ženska je spočela in poslala in povedala Davidu ter rekla: »Jaz sem z otrokom.«
6 And David sent to Joab, [saying], Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.
David je poslal k Joábu, rekoč: »Pošlji mi Hetejca Urijája.« In Joáb je poslal Urijája k Davidu.
7 And when Uriah was come unto him, David asked of him how Joab did, and how the people fared, and how the war prospered.
Ko je Urijá prišel k njemu, je David od njega zahteval, kako je šlo Joábu in kako je šlo ljudstvu in kako je uspevala vojna.
8 And David said to Uriah, Go down thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and there followed him a mess [of meat] from the king.
David je Urijáju rekel: »Pojdi dol k svoji hiši in si umij stopala.« Urijá je odšel iz kraljeve hiše in sledilo mu je darilo kraljeve jedi.
9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.
Toda Urijá je spal pri vratih kraljeve hiše z vsemi služabniki svojega gospoda in ni odšel dol k svoji hiši.
10 And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Art thou not come from a journey? wherefore didst thou not go down unto thine house?
Ko so Davidu povedali, rekoč: »Urijá ni odšel dol k svoji hiši, « je David rekel Urijáju: »Ali ne prihajaš iz svojega potovanja? Zakaj potem nisi šel dol k svoji hiši?«
11 And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in booths; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open field; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.
Urijá je Davidu rekel: »Skrinja, Izrael in Juda prebivajo v šotorih in moj gospod Joáb in služabniki mojega gospoda so utaborjeni na odprtih poljih; ali bom jaz potem šel v svojo hišo, da jem, da pijem in da ležim s svojo ženo? Kakor ti živiš in kakor živi tvoja duša, ne bom storil te stvari.«
12 And David said to Uriah, Tarry here today also, and tomorrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.
In David je rekel Urijáju: »Ostani tukaj tudi danes, jutri pa ti bom pustil oditi.« Tako je Urijá ostal v Jeruzalemu ta dan in naslednji dan.
13 And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.
Ko ga je David poklical, je pred njim jedel in pil in ga je opijanil in zvečer je odšel ven, da bi s služabniki svojega gospoda legel na svojo posteljo, toda ni šel dol k svoji hiši.
14 And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.
Zjutraj pa se je zgodilo, da je David napisal pismo Joábu in to poslal po Urijájevi roki.
15 And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.
V pismu je napisal, rekoč: »Postavite Urijája na sprednji del najbolj vroče bitke in se umaknite od njega, da bo lahko udarjen in umre.«
16 And it came to pass, when Joab kept watch upon the city, that he assigned Uriah unto the place where he knew that valiant men were.
Pripetilo se je, ko je Joáb opazoval mesto, da je Urijája določil na kraj, kjer je vedel, da so bili hrabri možje.
17 And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people, even of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also.
Možje iz mesta so odšli ven in se borili z Joábom in tam so padli nekateri izmed ljudstva, izmed Davidovih služabnikov in tudi Hetejec Urijá je umrl.
18 Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war;
Potem je Joáb poslal in Davidu povedal vse stvari glede vojne
19 and he charged the messenger, saying, When thou hast made an end of telling all the things concerning the war unto the king,
in naročil poslancu, rekoč: »Ko boš končal s sporočanjem stvari kralju glede vojne
20 it shall be that, if the king’s wrath arise, and he say unto thee, Wherefore went ye so nigh unto the city to fight? knew ye not that they would shoot from the wall?
in če bo tako, da se bo vzdignil kraljevi bes in ti reče: ›Zakaj ste se približali tako blizu mesta, ko ste se bojevali? Mar niste vedeli, da bodo streljali iz obzidja?
21 who smote Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? did not a woman cast an upper millstone upon him from the wall, that he died at Thebez? why went ye so nigh the wall? then shalt thou say, Thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
Kdo je udaril Jerubéšetovega sina Abiméleha? Ali ni ženska iz obzidja vrgla nanj kos mlinskega kamna, da je umrl v Tebécu? Zakaj ste se približali obzidju?‹ Potem reci: ›Tudi tvoj služabnik Hetejec Urijá je mrtev.‹«
22 So the messenger went, and came and shewed David all that Joab had sent him for.
Tako je poslanec odšel in prišel in pokazal Davidu vse, za kar ga je Joáb poslal.
23 And the messenger said unto David, The men prevailed against us and came out unto us into the field, and we were upon them even unto the entering of the gate.
Poslanec je Davidu rekel: »Ljudje so zagotovo prevladali zoper nas in prišli ven, k nam na polje in mi smo bili nad njimi celo do vhoda velikih vrat.
24 And the shooters shot at thy servants from off the wall; and some of the king’s servants be dead, and thy servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.
In strelci so streljali iz obzidja na tvoje služabnike; in nekateri izmed kraljevih služabnikov so mrtvi in tudi tvoj služabnik Hetejec Urijá je mrtev.«
25 Then David said unto the messenger, Thus shalt thou say unto Joab, Let not this thing displease thee, for the sword devoureth one as well as another: make thy battle more strong against the city, and overthrow it: and encourage thou him.
Potem je David rekel poslancu: »Tako boš rekel Joábu: ›Ne dopusti, da te ta stvar razžali, kajti meč požre enega kakor drugega. Svojo bitko zoper mesto naredi močnejšo in ga premagaj. Ohrabri ga.‹«
26 And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she made lamentation for her husband.
Ko je Urijájeva žena slišala, da je bil njen soprog Urijá mrtev, je žalovala za svojim soprogom.
27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and took her home to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.
Ko je žalovanje minilo, je David poslal in jo privedel k svoji hiši in postala je njegova žena in mu rodila sina. Toda stvar, ki jo je David storil, je razžalila Gospoda.
