< 1 Samuel 13 >
1 [was] a son of (Thirty *X*) year[s] Saul when became king he (and forty *X*) and two years he reigned over Israel.
Saul var. . Aar, da han blev Konge, og han regerede paa andet Aar over Israel.
2 And he chose for himself Saul three thousand from Israel and they were with Saul two thousand at Micmash and in [the] hill country of Beth-el and one thousand they were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin and [the] rest of the people he sent away each man to tents his.
Da udvalgte Saul sig tre Tusinde af Israel, og to Tusinde vare med Saul i Mikmas og paa Bethels Bjerg, og tusinde vare med Jonathan i Benjamins Gibea; men de øvrige Folk lod han fare, hver til sine Telte.
3 And he attacked Jonathan [the] garrison of [the] Philistines which [was] at Geba and they heard [the] Philistines and Saul he gave a blast on the trumpet in all the land saying let them hear the Hebrews.
Og Jonathan slog Filisternes Besætning, som var paa Højen, og Filisterne hørte det; derfor lod Saul blæse i Trompeten i hele Landet og sige: Lad Hebræerne høre det!
4 And all Israel they heard saying he has attacked Saul [the] garrison of [the] Philistines and also it has made itself odious Israel with the Philistines and they were summoned the people after Saul Gilgal.
Og al Israel hørte, at der sagdes: Saul har slaget Filisternes Besætning, og Israel har gjort sig forhadt hos Filisterne; da blev Folket sammenkaldt efter Saul til Gilgal.
5 And [the] Philistines they gathered - to fight with Israel thirty thousand chariot[s] and six thousand horsemen and a people like the sand which [is] on [the] shore of the sea for multitude and they came up and they encamped at Micmash [the] east of Beth Aven.
Og Filisterne samledes til at stride med Israel, tredive Tusinde Vogne og seks Tusinde Ryttere og Folk som Sand, der er ved Havbredden i Mangfoldighed; og de droge op og lejrede sig i Mikmas, Østen for Beth-Aven.
6 And everyone of Israel they saw that it was distress to it for it was hard pressed the people and they hid themselves the people in caves and in thickets and in cliffs and in underground chambers and in cisterns.
Der Israels Mænd saa sig i Nød (thi Folket blev trængt), da skjulte Folket sig i Hulerne og i Tornebuskene og i Klipperne og i de faste Taarne og i Grøfterne.
7 And Hebrews they passed over the Jordan [the] land of Gad and Gilead and Saul still he [was] at Gilgal and all the people they trembled after him.
Og Hebræere gik over Jordanen til Gads Land og til Gilead; og Saul var endnu i Gilgal, og alt Folket var forskrækket og fulgte efter ham.
8 (And he waited *Q(K)*) seven days to the appointed time which Samuel and not he had come Samuel Gilgal and it scattered the people from with him.
Og han tøvede i syv Dage til den Tid, som var bestemt af Samuel, men Samuel kom ikke til Gilgal; da adspredtes Folket fra ham.
9 And he said Saul bring near to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings and he offered up the burnt offering.
Da sagde Saul: Fører hid til mig Brændofret og Takofrene; og han ofrede Brændofret.
10 And it was when finished he to offer up the burnt offering and there! Samuel [was] coming and he went out Saul to meet him to bless him.
Og det skete, der han var færdig med at ofre Brændofret, se, da kom Samuel! og Saul gik ud imod ham at hilse paa ham.
11 And he said Samuel what? have you done and he said Saul if I saw that it was scattered the people from with me and you not you had come to [the] appointed time of the days and [the] Philistines [were] gathering Micmash.
Da sagde Samuel: Hvad har du gjort? og Saul sagde: Da jeg saa, at Folket adspredtes fra mig, og du kom ikke til den bestemte Tid, og Filisterne vare samlede udi Mikmas,
12 And I said now they will come down [the] Philistines against me Gilgal and [the] face of Yahweh not I have entreated and I forced myself and I offered up the burnt offering.
da sagde jeg: Nu komme Filisterne ned mod mig i Gilgal, og jeg har ikke bedet for Herrens Ansigt; da tog jeg Mod til mig og ofrede Brændofret.
13 And he said Samuel to Saul you have acted foolishly not you have kept [the] commandment of Yahweh God your which he commanded you for now he established Yahweh kingdom your to Israel until perpetuity.
Da sagde Samuel til Saul: Du har handlet daarligen; du har ikke holdt Herren din Guds Bud, som han bød dig; saa havde Herren nu stadfæstet dit Kongedømme over Israel evindelig.
14 And now kingdom your not it will endure he has sought Yahweh for himself a man according to own heart his and he has appointed him Yahweh to ruler over people his for not you have kept [that] which he commanded you Yahweh.
Men nu skal dit Kongedømme ikke bestaa; Herren har opsøgt sig en Mand efter sit Hjerte, og ham har Herren budet at være en Fyrste over sit Folk, fordi du ikke har holdt det, som Herren har befalet dig.
15 And he arose Samuel and he went up from Gilgal (and he went on way his and the rest of the people it went up after Saul to meet [the] people [of] the battle and they went from Gilgal *X*) Gibeah of Benjamin and he mustered Saul the people who were found with him about six hundred man.
Og Samuel gjorde sig rede og gik op fra Gilgal til Gibea i Benjamin; og Saul talte det Folk, som fandtes hos ham, ved seks Hundrede Mand.
16 And Saul and Jonathan son his and the people which was found with them [were] remaining in Geba of Benjamin and [the] Philistines they encamped in Micmash.
Og Saul og Jonathan, hans Søn, og det Folk, som fandtes hos dem, bleve i Gibea i Benjamin; men Filisterne havde lejret sig i Mikmas.
17 And it came out the destroyer from [the] camp of [the] Philistines three companies the company one it turned to [the] direction of Ophrah to [the] land of Shual.
Og der uddrog en ødelæggende Skare af Filisternes Lejr i tre Hobe; den ene Hob vendte sig ad Vejen imod Ofra, til Landet Sual;
18 And the company one it turned [the] direction of Beth Horon and the company one it turned [the] direction the border which looks down over [the] valley of Zeboim the wilderness towards.
og den anden Hob vendte sig ad Vejen til Beth-Horon; og den tredje Hob vendte sig mod Vejen ved Skellet, der rager frem over Zeboims Dal, ad Ørken til.
19 And a craftsman not he was found in all [the] land of Israel for (they said *Q(K)*) [the] Philistines lest they should make the Hebrews a sword or a spear.
Og der blev ingen Smed funden i al Israels Land; thi Filisterne sagde: At Hebræerne ikke skulde gøre Sværd eller Spyd.
20 And they went down all Israel the Philistines to sharpen each man plowshare his and mattock his and axe his and plowshare his.
Derfor maatte al Israel fare ned til Filisterne, at hver kunde faa sit Plovjern og sin Hakke og sin Økse og sin Spade skærpet;
21 And it was the charge two thirds of a shekel for the plowshares and for the mattocks and for three fork and for the axes and to make straight the goad[s].
og de havde skarpe File til Spader og Hakker og Treforke og Økser, og saa ofte Æggen var sløvet paa Spader, og naar de skulde have en Braad sat ind.
22 And it was on a day of battle and not it was found a sword and a spear in [the] hand of any of the people which [was] with Saul and with Jonathan and it was found to Saul and to Jonathan son his.
Og det skete paa Stridens Dag, at der ikke blev funden Sværd eller Spyd i nogen af Folkets Haand, som var med Saul og med Jonathan; dog fandtes der hos Saul og hos Jonathan, hans Søn.
23 And it came out [the] garrison of [the] Philistines to [the] pass of Micmash.
Og Filisternes Besætning drog ud til Kløftvejen ved Mikmas.
