< 1 Samuel 11 >
1 And he went up Nahash the Ammonite and he encamped on Jabesh Gilead and they said all [the] men of Jabesh to Nahash make to us a covenant and we will serve you.
Siden efter drog Ammoniten Nahasj op og belejrede Jabesj i Gilead. Da sagde alle Mændene i Jabesj til Nahasj: »Slut Pagt med os, saa vil vi underkaste os!«
2 And he said to them Nahash the Ammonite by this I will make to you by gouging out of you every eye of [the] right [side] and I will make it a reproach on all Israel.
Men Ammoniten Nahasj svarede: »Ja, paa det Vilkaar vil jeg slutte Pagt med eder, at jeg maa stikke det højre Øje ud paa enhver af eder til Forsmædelse for hele Israel!«
3 And they said to him [the] elders of Jabesh refrain to us seven days so let us send messengers in all [the] territory of Israel and if there not [is one who] delivers us and we will come out to you.
Da sagde de Ældste i Jabesj til ham: »Giv os syv Dages Frist, saa vi kan sende Bud rundt i hele Israels Land; hvis saa ingen kommer os til Hjælp, vil vi overgive os til dig!«
4 And they came the messengers Gibeah of Saul and they spoke the words in [the] ears of the people and they lifted up all the people voice their and they wept.
Da Sendebudene kom til Sauls Gibea og forebragte Folket Sagen, brast hele Folket i Graad.
5 And there! Saul [was] coming after the cattle from the field and he said Saul what? [is] to the people that they are weeping and they recounted to him [the] words of [the] men of Jabesh.
Og se, Saul kom netop hjem med sine Okser fra Marken, og han spurgte: »Hvad er der i Vejen med Folket, siden det græder?« De fortalte ham da, hvad Mændene fra Jabesj havde sagt;
6 And it rushed [the] spirit of God on Saul (just as heard he *Q(K)*) the words these and it burned anger his exceedingly.
og da Saul hørte det, overvældede Guds Aand ham, og hans Vrede blussede heftigt op.
7 And he took a pair of ox[en] and he cut in pieces it and he sent [them] in all [the] territory of Israel by [the] hand of the messengers - saying [the one] who not he [is] coming out after Saul and after Samuel thus it will be done to ox[en] his and it fell [the] dread of Yahweh on the people and they came out like a man one.
Saa tog han et Spand Okser og sønderhuggede dem, sendte Folk ud med Stykkerne i hele Israels Land og lod sige: »Hvis nogen ikke følger Saul og Samuel, skal der handles saaledes med hans Okser!« Da faldt en HERRENS Rædsel over Folket, saa de alle som een drog ud.
8 And he mustered them at Bezek and they were [the] people of Israel three hundred thousand and [the] man of Judah [was] thirty thousand.
Og han mønstrede dem i Bezek, og der var 300 000 Israeliter og 30 000 Judæere.
9 And they said to the messengers who had come thus you will say! to [the] man of Jabesh Gilead tomorrow it will belong to you deliverance (like [the] heat of *Q(K)*) the sun and they went the messengers and they told to [the] men of Jabesh and they were glad.
Derpaa sagde han til Sendebudene, som var kommet: »Saaledes skal I sige til Mændene i Jabesj i Gilead: I Morgen, naar Solen begynder at brænde, skal I faa Hjælp!« Da Sendebudene kom og meddelte Mændene i Jabesj det, blev de glade.
10 And they said [the] men of Jabesh tomorrow will we go out to you and you will do to us according to all the good in view your.
Og Mændene i Jabesj sagde: »I Morgen vil vi overgive os til eder, saa kan I gøre med os, hvad I finder for godt!«
11 And it was from [the] next day and he made Saul the people three companies and they went in [the] midst of the camp in [the] watch of the morning and they struck down Ammon until [the] heat of the day and it was those [who] remained and they were scattered and not they remained among them two together.
Dagen efter delte Saul Hæren i tre Afdelinger, og de trængte ind i Lejren ved Morgenvagten og huggede ned blandt Ammoniterne, til det blev hedt; og de, som undslap, splittedes til alle Sider, saa ikke to og to blev sammen.
12 And it said the people to Samuel who? [is] the [one who] said Saul will he reign? over us deliver up the men so we may put to death them.
Da sagde Folket til Samuel: »Hvem var det, som sagde: Skal Saul være Konge over os? Bring os de Mænd, at vi kan slaa dem ihjel!«
13 And he said Saul not he will be put to death anyone on the day this for this day he has done Yahweh deliverance in Israel.
Men Saul sagde: »I Dag skal ingen slaas ihjel; thi i Dag har HERREN givet Israel Sejr!«
14 And he said Samuel to the people come so let us go Gilgal so we may renew there the kingship.
Da sagde Samuel til Folket: »Kom, lad os gaa til Gilgal og gentage Kongevalget der!«
15 And they went all the people Gilgal and they made king there Saul before Yahweh in Gilgal and they sacrificed there sacrifices peace offerings before Yahweh and he rejoiced there Saul and all [the] men of Israel up to muchness.
Saa gik hele Folket til Gilgal og gjorde Saul til Konge for HERRENS Aasyn der i Gilgal, og de bragte Takofre der for HERRENS Aasyn. Og Saul og alle Israels Mænd var højlig glade.
