2 Samuel 14
1 And he perceived Joab [the] son of Zeruiah that [the] heart of the king [was] towards Absalom.
Da nu Joab, Zerujas Søn, mærkede, at Kongens Hjerte hang ved Absalom,
2 And he sent Joab Tekoa towards and he took from there a woman wise and he said to her play [the] mourner please and put on please garments of mourning and may not you anoint yourself oil and you will be like a woman this days many [who has been] mourning on a dead [person].
sendte han Bud til Tekoa efter en klog Kvinde og sagde til hende: »Lad, som om du har Sorg, ifør dig Sørgeklæder, lad være at salve dig med Olie, men bær dig ad som en Kvinde, der alt i lang Tid har sørget over en afdød;
3 And you will go to the king and you will speak to him according to the word this and he put Joab the words in mouth her.
gaa saa til Kongen og sig saaledes til ham« — og Joab lagde hende Ordene i Munden.
4 And she said the woman Tekoite to the king and she fell on face her [the] ground towards and she bowed down and she said save! O king.
Kvinden fra Tekoa gik saa til Kongen, faldt til Jorden paa sit Ansigt, bøjede sig og sagde: »Hjælp Konge!«
5 And he said to her the king what? [is] to you and she said indeed [am] a woman a widow I and he has died husband my.
Kongen spurgte hende: »Hvad fattes dig?« Og hun sagde: »Jo, jeg er Enke, min Mand er død.
6 And [belonged] to maidservant your two sons and they struggled together [the] two of them in the field and there not [was] a deliverer between them and he struck him the one the one and he killed him.
Din Trælkvinde havde to Sønner; de kom i Klammeri ude paa Marken, og der var ingen til at bilægge deres Tvist; saa slog den ene den anden ihjel.
7 And there! it has risen up all the clan on maidservant your and they have said deliver up - [the] [one who] struck down brother his so we may put to death him for [the] life of brother his whom he killed and let us destroy also the heir and they will extinguish coal my which it is left to not (to establish *Q(K)*) for husband my a name and a remnant on [the] surface of the ground.
Men nu træder hele Slægten op imod din Trælkvinde og siger: Udlever Brodermorderen, for at vi kan slaa ham ihjel og hævne Broderen, som han dræbte! Saaledes siger de for at faa Arvingen ryddet af Vejen og slukke den sidste Glød, jeg har tilbage, saa at min Mand ikke faar Eftermæle eller Efterkommere paa Jorden!«
8 And he said the king to the woman go to house your and I I will command on you.
Da sagde Kongen til Kvinden: »Gaa kun hjem, jeg skal jævne Sagen for dig!«
9 And she said the woman Tekoite to the king [be] on me O lord my the king the iniquity and on [the] house of father my and the king and throne his [be] innocent.
Men Kvinden fra Tekoa sagde til Kongen: »Lad Skylden komme over mig og mit Fædrenehus, Herre Konge, men Kongen og hans Trone skal være skyldfri!«
10 And he said the king the [one who] speaks to you and you will bring him to me and not he will repeat again to touch you.
Kongen sagde da: »Enhver, som vil dig noget, skal du bringe til mig, saa skal han ikke mere volde dig Men!«
11 And she said let him remember please the king Yahweh God your (from increasing *Q(k)*) [the] avenger of blood to destroy and not they will destroy son my and he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh if it will fall one of [the] hair[s] of son your [the] ground towards.
Men Kvinden sagde: »Vilde dog Kongen nævne HERREN din Guds Navn, for at Blodhævneren ikke skal volde endnu mere Ulykke og min Søn blive ryddet af Vejen!« Da sagde han: »Saa sandt HERREN lever, der skal ikke krummes et Haar paa din Søns Hoved!«
12 And she said the woman let her speak please maidservant your to lord my the king a word and he said speak.
Da sagde Kvinden: »Maa din Trælkvinde sige min Herre Kongen et Ord?« Han svarede: »Tal!«
13 And she said the woman and why? have you planned like this on [the] people of God and because has spoken the king the word this like a guilty [person] to not to bring back the king banished [son] his.
Og Kvinden sagde: »Hvor kan du da tænke paa at gøre det samme ved Guds Folk — naar Kongen taler saaledes, dømmer han jo sig selv — og det gør Kongen, naar han ikke vil lade sin forstødte Søn vende tilbage.
14 For certainly we will die and [we are] like waters which are spilled [the] ground towards which not they will be gathered and not he takes away God life and he plans plans to not he will be cast out from him a banished [one].
Thi vi skal visselig alle dø, vi er som Vandet, der ikke kan samles op igen, naar det hældes ud paa Jorden; men Gud vil ikke tage det Menneskes Liv, der omgaas med den Tanke, at en forstødt ikke skal være forstødt for stedse.
15 And now when I have come to speak to the king lord my the word this that they have made afraid me the people and she said maidservant your let me speak please to the king perhaps he will do the king [the] word of maidservant his.
Naar jeg nu er kommet for at tale om denne Sag til min Herre Kongen, saa er det, fordi de Folk har gjort mig bange; din Trælkvinde tænkte: Jeg vil tale til Kongen, maaske opfylder Kongen sin Trælkvindes Bøn;
16 For he will hear the king to deliver maidservant his from [the] hand of the man to destroy me and son my together from [the] inheritance of God.
thi Kongen vil bønhøre mig og fri sin Trælkvinde af den Mands Haand, som tragter efter at udrydde mig tillige med min Søn af Guds Arvelod.
17 And she said maidservant your may it become please [the] word of lord my the king rest for - like [the] angel of God [is] so lord my the king to hear good and bad and Yahweh God your may he be with you.
Og din Trælkvinde tænkte: Min Herre Kongens Ord vil være mig en Lindring; thi min Herre Kongen er som en Guds Engel til at skønne over godt og ondt! HERREN din Gud være med dig!«
18 And he answered the king and he said to the woman may not please you hide from me anything which I [am] asking you and she said the woman let him speak please lord my the king.
Da sagde Kongen til Kvinden: »Svar mig paa det Spørgsmaal, jeg nu stiller dig, dølg ikke noget!« Kvinden sagde: »Min Herre Kongen tale!«
19 And he said the king ¿ [is] [the] hand of Joab with you in all this and she answered the woman and she said [by] [the] life of self your O lord my the king if there is - to go to [the] right and to go to [the] left from all that he has spoken lord my the king for servant your Joab he he commanded me and he he put in [the] mouth of maidservant your all the words these.
Da sagde Kongen: »Har Joab en Finger med i alt dette?« Og Kvinden svarede: »Saa sandt du lever, Herre Konge, det er umuligt at slippe uden om, hvad min Herre Kongen siger. Ja, det var din Træl Joab, som paalagde mig dette og lagde din Trælkvinde alle disse Ord i Munden.
20 In order to change [the] face of the matter he did servant your Joab the thing this and lord my [is] wise like [the] wisdom of [the] angel of God to know all that [is] in the land.
For at give Sagen et andet Udseende har din Træl Joab gjort saaledes. Men min Herre er viis som en Guds Engel, saa han ved alle Ting paa Jorden!«
21 And he said the king to Joab here! please I do the thing this and go bring back the young man Absalom.
Derpaa sagde Kongen til Joab: »Vel, jeg vil gøre det! Gaa hen og bring den unge Mand, Absalom, tilbage!«
22 And he fell Joab to face his [the] ground towards and he bowed down and he blessed the king and he said Joab this day he knows servant your that I have found favor in view your O lord my the king that he has done the king [the] word of (servant your. *Q(K)*)
Da faldt Joab paa sit Ansigt til Jorden og bøjede sig og velsignede Kongen og sagde: »Nu ved din Træl, at jeg har fundet Naade for dine Øjne, Herre Konge, siden Kongen har opfyldt sin Træls Bøn!«
23 And he arose Joab and he went Geshur towards and he brought Absalom Jerusalem.
Derpaa begav Joab sig til Gesjur og hentede Absalom tilbage til Jerusalem.
24 And he said the king he will turn to house his and face my not he will see and he turned Absalom to house his and [the] face of the king not he saw.
Men Kongen sagde: »Lad ham gaa hjem til sit Hus; for mit Aasyn bliver han ikke stedet!« Da gik Absalom hjem til sit Hus, og for Kongens Aasyn blev han ikke stedet.
25 And like Absalom not he was a man handsome in all Israel to praise exceedingly from [the] sole of foot his and to scalp his not it was in him a blemish.
Men ingen Mand i hele Israel blev beundret saa højt for sin Skønhed som Absalom; fra Fodsaal til Isse var der ikke en Lyde ved ham.
26 And when shaved he head his and it was from [the] end of days - to the days when he shaved for [it was] heavy on him and he shaved it and he weighed [the] hair of head his two hundred shekels by [the] weight of the king.
Og naar han lod sit Haar klippe — han lod det klippe, hver Gang der var gaaet et Aar, fordi det blev ham for tungt, derfor maatte han lade det klippe — vejede det 200 Sekel efter kongelig Vægt.
27 And they were born to Absalom three sons and a daughter one and name her [was] Tamar she she was a woman beautiful of appearance.
Der fødtes Absalom tre Sønner og een Datter ved Navn Tamar; hun var en smuk Kvinde.
28 And he dwelt Absalom in Jerusalem two years days and [the] face of the king not he saw.
Absalom boede nu to Aar i Jerusalem uden at blive stedet for Kongen.
29 And he sent Absalom to Joab to send him to the king and not he was willing to come to him and he sent again a second [time] and not he was willing to come.
Da sendte Absalom Bud efter Joab for at faa ham til at gaa til Kongen; men han vilde ikke komme. Han sendte Bud een Gang til, men han vilde ikke komme.
30 And he said to servants his see [the] portion of land of Joab [is] to hand my and [belongs] to him there barley go (and set on fire it *Q(K)*) with fire and they set on fire [the] servants of Absalom the portion of land with fire.
Da sagde han til sine Folk »Se den Bygmark, Joab har der ved Siden af min! Gaa hen og stik Ild paa den!« Og Absaloms Folk stak Ild paa Marken.
31 And he arose Joab and he went to Absalom the house towards and he said to him why? have they set on fire servants your the portion of land which [belongs] to me with fire.
Da begav Joab sig ind til Absalom og sagde til ham: »Hvorfor har dine Folk stukket Ild paa min Mark?«
32 And he said Absalom to Joab here! I sent to you - saying come here so let me send you to the king saying why? have I come from Geshur [was] good for me still I [was] there and therefore let me see [the] face of the king and if there in me [is] iniquity and he will kill me.
Absalom svarede Joab: »Se, jeg sendte Bud efter dig og bad dig komme herhen, for at jeg kunde sende dig til Kongen og sige: Hvorfor kom jeg tilbage fra Gesjur? Det havde været bedre for mig, om jeg var blevet der! Men nu vil jeg stedes for Kongen; er der Skyld hos mig saa lad ham dræbe mig!«
33 And he went Joab to the king and he told to him and he summoned Absalom and he came to the king and he bowed down to him on face his [the] ground towards before the king and he kissed the king Absalom.
Joab gik da til Kongen og overbragte ham disse Ord. Saa lod han Absalom kalde, og han kom ind til Kongen; og han bøjede sig for ham og faldt paa sit Ansigt til Jorden for Kongen. Saa kyssede Kongen Absalom.
