< 1 Samuel 27 >
1 And he said David to heart his now I will be swept away a day one by [the] hand of Saul not [belongs] to me good for really I will escape - to [the] land of [the] Philistines and he will desist from me Saul to seek me again in all [the] territory of Israel and I will be delivered from hand his.
Men David sagde til sig selv: "Jeg falder dog en skønne Dag for Sauls Hånd. Jeg har ingen anden udvej end at søge Tilflugt i Filisternes Land; så opgiver Saul at søge efter mig nogetsteds i Israels Land, og jeg er uden for hans Rækkevidde!"
2 And he arose David and he passed over he and six hundred man who [were] with him to Achish [the] son of Maoch [the] king of Gath.
David brød da op og drog med sine 600 Mænd over til Maoks Søn, Kong Akisj af Gat;
3 And he dwelt David with Achish in Gath he and men his each one and household his David and [the] two wives his Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite [woman].
og David boede hos Akisj i Gat tillige med sine Mænd, som havde deres Familier med, ligesom David havde sine to Hustruer med, Ahinoam fra Jizre'el og Abigajil, Karmeliten Nabals Hustru.
4 And it was told to Saul that he had fled David Gath and not (he repeated *Q(K)*) again to seek him.
Da Saul fik at vide, at David var flygtet til Gaf, holdt han op at søge efter ham.
5 And he said David to Achish if please I have found favor in view your let people give to me a place in one of [the] cities of the field so I may dwell there and why? will he dwell servant your in [the] city of royalty with you.
Men David sagde til Akisj: "Hvis jeg har fundet Nåde for dine Øjne, lad mig så få et Sted at bo i en af Byerne ude i Landet, thi hvorfor skal din Træl bo hos dig i Hovedstaden?"
6 And he gave to him Achish on the day that Ziklag therefore it has belonged Ziklag to [the] kings of Judah until the day this.
Akisj lod ham da med det samme få Ziklag; og derfor tilhører Ziklag endnu den Dag i Dag Judas Konger.
7 And it was [the] number of the days which he dwelt David in [the] region of [the] Philistines days and four months.
Den Tid, David boede i Filisternes Land, udgjorde et År og fire Måneder.
8 And he went up David and men his and they made raids against the Geshurite[s] (and the Gizrite[s] *Q(K)*) and the Amalekite[s] for they [were] dwelling the land which [is] from antiquity coming you Shur towards and to [the] land of Egypt.
Og David og hans Mænd drog op og plyndrede hos Gesjuriterne, Gizriterne og Amalekiterne; thi de boede i Landet fra Telam hen imod Sjur og hen til Ægypten;
9 And he struck David the land and not he let live a man and a woman and he took sheep and cattle and donkeys and camels and clothes and he returned and he went to Achish.
og når David plyndrede Landet, lod han hverken Mænd eller Kvinder blive i Live, men Småkvæg, Hornkvæg, Æsler, Kameler og Klæder tog han med; når han så vendte tilbage og kom til Akisj,
10 And he said Achish against [where] did you make a raid this day and he said David on [the] Negev of Judah and on [the] Negev of the Jerahmeelite[s] and against [the] Negev of the Kenite[s].
og han spurgte: "Hvor hærgede I denne Gang?" svarede David: "Idet judæiske Sydland!" eller: "I det jerame'elitiske Sydland!" eller: "I det kenitiske Sydland!"
11 And a man and a woman not he let live David to bring Gath saying lest they should tell on us saying thus he has done David and [is] thus practice his all the days which he has dwelt in [the] region of [the] Philistines.
David lod ingen Mand eller Kvinde blive i Live for ikke at måtte tage dem med til Gat; thi han tænkte: "De kunde røbe os og sige: Det og det har David gjort!" Således bar han sig ad, al den Tid han opholdt sig i Filisternes Land.
12 And he trusted Achish in David saying certainly he has become odious among people his among Israel and he will become of me a servant of perpetuity.
Derfor fik Akisj Tillid til David, idet han tænkte: "Han har gjort sig grundig forhadt hos sit Folk Israel; han vil tjene mig for stedse!"
