< 1 Kings 20 >

1 And Ben Hadad [the] king of Aram he gathered all army his and thirty and two king[s] [were] with him and horse[s] and chariotry and he went up and he laid siege on Samaria and he fought against it.
Kong Benhadad af Aram samlede hele sin Hær, og to og tredive Konger fulgte ham med Heste og Stridsvogne; og han drog op og indesluttede Samaria og belejrede det.
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab [the] king of Israel the city towards. And he said to him thus he says Ben Hadad
Han sendte nu Sendebud ind i Byen til Kong Akab af Israel
3 silver your and gold your [belongs] to me it and wives your and children your good [belong] to me they.
og lod sige til ham: »Saaledes siger Benhadad: Dit Sølv og Guld er mit, men dine Hustruer og Børn kan du beholde!«
4 And he answered [the] king of Israel and he said according to word your O lord my the king [belong] to you I and all that [belongs] to me.
Israels Konge lod svare: »Som du byder, Herre Konge! Jeg og alt, hvad mit er, tilhører dig.«
5 And they returned the messengers and they said thus he says Ben Hadad saying that I sent to you saying silver your and gold your and wives your and children your to me you will give.
Men Sendebudene vendte tilbage og sagde: »Saaledes siger Benhadad: Jeg sendte Bud til dig og lod sige: Dit Sølv og Guld og dine Hustruer og Børn skal du give mig!
6 That - except about this time tomorrow I will send servants my to you and they will search house your and [the] houses of servants your and it will be every desirable thing of eyes your they will put in hand their and they will take [it].
Saa sender jeg da i Morgen ved denne Tid mine Folk til dig, og de skal gennemsøge dit Hus og dine Folks Huse og tilvende sig og tage alt, hvad de lyster!«
7 And he summoned [the] king of Israel all [the] elders of the land and he said know please and see that trouble this [man] [is] seeking for he sent to me for wives my and for children my and for silver my and for gold my and not I withheld [them] from him.
Da lod Israels Konge alle Landets Ældste kalde og sagde: »Der ser I, at Manden har ondt i Sinde, thi nu sender han Bud til mig om mine Hustruer og Børn, og mit Sølv og Guld havde jeg ikke nægtet ham!«
8 And they said to him all the elders and all the people may not you listen and not you must be willing.
Alle de Ældste og alt Folket svarede ham: »Hør ham ikke; du maa ikke give efter!«
9 And he said to [the] messengers of Ben Hadad say to lord my the king all that you sent to servant your at the first I will do and the thing this not I am able to do and they went the messengers and they brought back him word.
Da sagde han til Benhadads Sendebud: »Sig til min Herre Kongen: Alt, hvad du første Gang krævede af din Træl, vil jeg gøre, men dette Krav kan jeg ikke opfylde!« Med det Svar vendte Sendebudene tilbage.
10 And he sent to him Ben Hadad and he said thus may they do! to me [the] gods and thus may they add if it will suffice [the] dust of Samaria for handfuls for all the people which [is] at feet my.
Da sendte Benhadad Bud til ham og lod sige: »Guderne ramme mig baade med det ene og det andet, om Støvet i Samaria forslaar til at fylde Hænderne paa alle de Krigere, der følger mig!«
11 And he answered [the] king of Israel and he said speak may not he boast [one who] girds on like [one who] loosens.
Men Israels Konge lod svare: »Sig saaledes: Den, der spænder Bæltet, skal ikke rose sig som den, der løser det!«
12 And it was when heard the word this and he [was] drinking he and the kings in the booths and he said to servants his set yourselves and they set themselves on the city.
Benhadad modtog Svaret, just som han sad og drak sammen med Kongerne i Løvhytterne; da sagde han til sine Folk: »Til Storm!« Og de gjorde sig rede til at storme Byen.
13 And there! - a prophet one he drew near to Ahab [the] king of Israel and he said thus he says Yahweh ¿ do you see all the multitude great this here I [am] about to give it in hand your this day and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Men en Profet traadte hen til Kong Akab af Israel og sagde: »Saa siger HERREN: Ser du hele den vældige Menneskemængde der? Se, jeg giver den i Dag i din Haand, og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN!«
14 And he said Ahab by whom? and he said thus he says Yahweh by [the] young men of [the] officials of the provinces and he said who? will he begin the battle and he said you.
Akab spurgte: »Ved hvem?« Han svarede: »Saa siger HERREN: Ved Fogedernes Folk!« Derpaa spurgte han: »Hvem skal aabne Kampen?« Han svarede: »Du!«
15 And he mustered [the] young men of [the] officials of the provinces and they were two hundred two and thirty and after them he mustered all the people all [the] people of Israel [were] seven thousand.
Saa mønstrede han Fogedernes Folk, og de var 232; derefter mønstrede han hele Hæren, alle Israeliterne, 7000 Mand.
16 And they went out at the noontide and Ben Hadad [was] drinking drunken in the booths he and the kings thirty and two king[s] [who] was helping him.
Og ved Middagstid gjorde de et Udfald, just som Benhadad og de to og tredive Konger, der fulgte ham, sad og drak i Løvhytterne.
17 And they went out [the] young men of [the] officials of the provinces at the first and he sent Ben Hadad and people told to him saying men they have come out from Samaria.
Først rykkede Fogedernes Folk ud. Man sendte da Bud til Benhadad og meldte: »Der rykker Mænd ud fra Samaria!«
18 And he said if for peace they have come out seize them alive and if for battle they have come out alive seize them.
Da sagde han: »Hvad enten de rykker ud for at faa Fred eller for at kæmpe, saa grib dem levende!«
19 And these [men] they went out from the city [the] young men of [the] officials of the provinces and the army which [was] behind them.
Da Fogedernes Folk og Hæren, som fulgte efter, var rykket ud fra Byen,
20 And they struck down everyone man his and they fled Aram and it pursued them Israel and he escaped Ben Hadad [the] king of Aram on a horse and horsemen.
huggede de ned for Fode, saa at Aramæerne tog Flugten; og Israeliterne satte efter dem. Men Kong Benhadad af Aram undslap til Hest sammen med nogle Ryttere.
21 And he went out [the] king of Israel and he struck down the horse[s] and the chariotry and he struck down among Aram a slaughter great.
Da rykkede Israels Konge ud og gjorde Hestene og Vognene til Bytte, og han tilføjede Aramæerne et stort Nederlag.
22 And he drew near the prophet to [the] king of Israel and he said to him go strengthen yourself and know and see [that] which you will do for to [the] return of the year [the] king of Aram [is] coming up on you.
Men Profeten traadte hen til Israels Konge og sagde til ham: »Tag dig sammen og se vel til, hvad du vil gøre, thi næste Aar drager Arams Konge op imod dig igen!«
23 And [the] servants of [the] king of Aram they said to him [is] a god of mountains God their there-fore they were strong more than us and but let us do battle with them on the level ground if not we will be strong more than them.
Men Aramæerkongens Folk sagde til ham: »Deres Gud er en Bjerggud, derfor blev de os for stærke; men lad os se, om vi ikke kan blive de stærkeste, naar vi angriber dem paa Slettelandet!
24 And the thing this do remove the kings each from place his and appoint governors in place of them.
Saaledes skal du gøre: Afsæt alle Kongerne, sæt Statholdere i deres Sted
25 And you you will muster for yourself - an army like the army which fell from you and a horse like the horse - and chariotry like the chariotry and let us fight them on the level ground if not we will be strong more than them and he listened to voice their and he did thus.
og stil lige saa stor en Hær paa Benene som den, du mistede, og lige saa mange Heste og Vogne som før! Naar vi saa kæmper med dem paa Slettelandet, sandelig, om vi ikke bliver de stærkeste!« Og han fulgte deres Raad og handlede derefter.
26 And it was to [the] return of the year and he mustered Ben Hadad Aram and he went up Aphek towards for battle with Israel.
Næste Aar mønstrede Benhadad Aramæerne og drog op til Afek for at kæmpe med Israel.
27 And [the] people of Israel they were mustered and they were supplied and they went to meet them and they encamped [the] people of Israel before them like two little flocks of goats and Aram they filled the land.
Ogsaa Israeliterne blev mønstret og forsynede sig med Levnedsmidler, hvorefter de rykkede dem i Møde og lejrede sig lige over for dem som to smaa Gedehjorde, medens Aramæerne oversvømmede Landet.
28 And he drew near [the] man of God and he said to [the] king of Israel and he said thus he says Yahweh because that they have said Aram [is] a god of mountains Yahweh and not [is] a god of valleys he and I will give all the multitude great this in hand your and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
Da traadte en Guds Mand hen til Israels Konge og sagde: »Saa siger HERREN: Fordi Aramæerne siger: HERREN er en Bjerggud og ikke en Dalgud! vil jeg give hele den vældige Menneskemængde der i din Haand, og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN!«
29 And they encamped these opposite to these seven days and it was - on the day seventh and it drew near the battle and they struck down [the] people of Israel Aram one hundred thousand foot soldier[s] in a day one.
De laa nu lejret over for hinanden i syv Dage, men Syvendedagen kom det til Kamp, og Israeliterne huggede Aramæerne ned, 100 000 Mand Fodfolk paa een Dag.
30 And they fled the [ones who] remained - Aphek towards into the city and it fell the wall on twenty and seven thousand man who remained and Ben Hadad he fled and he went into the city a room in a room.
De, der blev tilovers, flygtede til Byen Afek, men Muren styrtede ned over dem, der var tilbage, 27 000 Mand. Benhadad flygtede ind i Byen, hvor han løb fra Kammer til Kammer.
31 And they said to him servants his here! please we have heard that [the] kings of [the] house of Israel that [are] kings of covenant loyalty they let us put please sackcloth on loins our and ropes on head our and let us go out to [the] king of Israel perhaps he will let live life your.
Da sagde hans Folk til ham: »Vi har hørt, at Kongerne over Israels Hus er naadige Konger; lad os binde Sæk om Lænderne og Reb om Hovederne og gaa ud til Israels Konge, maaske han da vil skaane dit Liv!«
32 And they girded sackcloth on loins their and ropes on heads their and they went to [the] king of Israel and they said servant your Ben Hadad he says let it live please life my and he said ¿ [is] still he alive [is] brother my he.
Saa bandt de Sæk om Lænderne og Reb om Hovederne og kom til Israels Konge og sagde: »Din Træl Benhadad siger: Lad mig leve!« Han svarede: »Er han endnu i Live? Han er min Broder!«
33 And the men they observed [the] signs and they hastened and they caught ¿ from him and they said [is] brother your Ben Hadad and he said go fetch him and he came out to him Ben Hadad and he brought up him on the chariot.
Det tog Mændene for et godt Varsel, og de tog ham straks paa Ordet, idet de sagde: »Benhadad er din Broder!« Da sagde han: »Gaa hen og hent ham!« Saa gik Benhadad ud til ham, og han tog ham op i Vognen til sig.
34 And he said to him the cities which he took father my from with father your I will return and streets you will make for yourself in Damascus just as he made father my in Samaria and I with the covenant I will let go you and he made to him a covenant and he let go him.
Benhadad sagde nu til ham: »De Byer, min Fader fratog din Fader, vil jeg give tilbage, og du maa bygge dig Gader i Damaskus, lige som min Fader gjorde i Samaria! Paa disse Vilkaar give du mig fri!« Og han sluttede Pagt med ham og lod ham gaa.
35 And a man one one of [the] sons of the prophets he said to companion his at [the] word of Yahweh strike me please and he refused the man to strike him.
Men en af Profetsønnerne sagde med HERRENS Ord til sin Fælle: »Slaa mig!« Men han vægrede sig derved.
36 And he said to him because that not you listened to [the] voice of Yahweh here you [are] about to go from with me and it will strike down you the lion and he went from beside him and it met him the lion and it struck down him.
Da sagde han til ham: »Fordi du ikke har adlydt HERRENS Ord, skal en Løve dræbe dig, naar du gaar bort fra mig!« Og da han gik bort fra ham, traf en Løve paa ham og dræbte ham.
37 And he found a man another and he said strike me please and he struck him the man completely and wounded.
Saa traf Profetsønnen en anden og sagde til ham: »Slaa mig!« Og den anden slog ham og saarede ham.
38 And he went the prophet and he stood for the king (beside *LAB(H)*) the way and he disguised himself with ashes over eyes his.
Saa gik Profeten hen og stillede sig paa den Vej, Kongen kom, og gjorde sig ukendelig med et Bind for Øjnene.
39 And he was the king passing by and he he cried out to the king and he said servant your - he went out in [the] midst of the battle and there! a man he turned aside and he brought to me a man and he said guard the man this if indeed he will be missing and it will be life your in place of life his or a talent of silver you will weigh out.
Da Kongen kom forbi, raabte han til ham: »Din Træl var draget med i Kampen; da kom en hen til mig med en Mand og sagde: Vogt den Mand vel! Slipper han bort, skal du svare for hans Liv med dit eget Liv eller bøde en Talent Sølv!
40 And he was servant your doing them and them and he there not [was] he and he said to him [the] king of Israel [is] thus sentence your you you have decided.
Men din Træl var optaget snart her, snart der, og borte var han.« Da sagde Israels Konge til ham: »Det er din Dom, du har selv fældet den!«
41 And he hastened and he removed the bandage (from over *Q(k)*) eyes his and he recognized him [the] king of Israel that [was] one of the prophets he.
Saa tog han hurtig Bindet fra Øjnene, og Israels Konge genkendte ham som en af Profeterne.
42 And he said to him thus he says Yahweh because you have let go [the] man of total destruction my from a hand and it will be life your in place of life his and people your in place of people his.
Og han sagde til ham: »Saa siger HERREN: Fordi du gav Slip paa den Mand, der var hjemfaldet til mit Band, skal du svare for hans Liv med dit eget Liv og for hans Folk med dit eget Folk!«
43 And he went [the] king of Israel to house his sullen and furious and he went Samaria towards.
Da drog Israels Konge hjem, misfornøjet og ilde til Mode, og han kom til Samaria.
