1 Chronicles 11
1 Then the people of Israel came to David at Hebron [town] and said to him, “Listen, we have the same ancestors [IDM] that you have.
Då kom heile Israel i hop hjå David i Hebron og sagde: «Du veit me og du er same folket.
2 In the past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led our Israeli [soldiers in our battles]. You are the one to whom Yahweh our God promised, ‘You will be the leader [MET] of my people; you will be their king.’”
Alt longe sidan, då Saul endå var konge, var du den som førde Israel. Og til deg hev Herren din Gud, sagt: «Du skal vera ein hyrding for Israel, folket mitt, ja, du skal vera ein hovding yver mitt folk Israel.»»
3 So all the Israeli elders came to David at Hebron. And David made a sacred agreement with them while Yahweh was listening. They anointed him [with olive oil to set him apart] to be the king of the Israeli people. That is what Yahweh had previously told [the prophet] Samuel would happen.
Då so alle styresmennerne i Israel kom til kongen i Hebron, gjorde David eit samband med deim der i Hebron for Herrens åsyn, og sidan salva dei David til konge yver Israel, etter Herrens ord gjenom Samuel.
4 David and all the Israeli [soldiers] [SYN] went to Jerusalem. [At that time, ] Jerusalem was called Jebus, and the people who lived there were the Jebus people-group.
Og David for med heile Israel til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; der var jebusitarne, som endå var att i landet.
5 Those people said to David, “Your [soldiers] will not be able to get inside our city!” But David’s [soldiers] captured the city, even though it had strong walls around it, and since then it has been called ‘The City of David’.
Og Jebus-buarne sagde til David: «Du kjem ikkje inn her.» Men David tok like vel Sionsborgi, det er Davidsbyen.
6 [What happened was this: ]: David said [to his soldiers], “The one who leads [our soldiers] to attack the Jebus people-group will become the commander of all my army.” Joab, the son of Zeruiah, led the soldiers, so he became the commander of all the army.
Og David sagde: «Den som fyrst drep ein jebusit, kven det so er, han skal verta hovding og herførar.» Og Joab, son åt Seruja, kom fyrst upp, og vart då hovding.
7 [After they captured] the city which had strong walls around it, David moved there. That is why they named it ‘The City of David’.
Sidan sette David seg til i borgi; difor kalla dei henne Davidsbyen.
8 David’s workers rebuilt the city, starting where the land was filled in and extending to the wall that was around the city. Joab’s [men] repaired the other parts of the city.
Og han bygde byen rundt umkring, frå Millo og heilt ikring, og Joab bygde upp att det andre av byen.
9 David became more and more powerful/influential, because the Almighty Commander of the armies of angels was with/helping him.
Og Davids velde auka Davids velde stødt og stendigt, og Herren, allhers drott, var med honom.
10 Yahweh had promised [that David would become the king]. And all the Israeli people (were happy that David was/supported David as) their king. There were many soldiers/warriors who helped David’s kingdom to remain strong.
Og dette er dei gjævaste kjemporne hans David, som gav honom kraftig hjelp, i lag med heile Israel, til å verta konge, til å gjeva honom kongedømet hans, etter Herrens ord um Israel.
11 This is a list of the leaders of David’s [most mighty] warriors: Jashobeam was from the Hacmon clan. He was one of the leaders of David’s most powerful soldiers. One time he fought against 300 enemies and killed them all with his spear.
Dette er talet på kjemporne hans David: Jasobam, son til hakmoniføraren for kjemporne; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne i ein gong.
12 Another one was Eleazar, who was the son of Dodo from the clan of Ahoh.
Og etter han kom Eleazar, son åt Dodo, ahohiten; han var ein av dei tri kjemporne.
13 [One day] he was with David at Pas Dammim when the soldiers of Philistia gathered there for the battle. There was a field of barley there. At first the Israeli soldiers ran away from the soldiers of Philistia,
Han var med David i Pas-Dammim, då filistarane hadde kome saman til strid, og der var ein åkerlapp fullgrodd med bygg; og folket rømde for filistarane.
14 but then David and Eleazar stopped in the middle of the field and fought to defend it and killed [many of] the soldiers of Philistia. Yahweh enabled them to win a great victory on that day.
Då stødte dei seg upp midt på åkerleppen og varde honom og hogg ned filistarane, og Herren gav deim soleis ein stor siger.
15 One time three of David’s thirty most mighty warriors came to David when he was camping next to the huge rock outside the cave near Adullam. At that same time, the army of Philistia had camped in the Rephaim Valley.
Ein gong for tri av dei tretti hovdingarne nedetter berget til David ved Adullams-helleren, medan ein flokk med filistar hadde lægra seg i Refa’imsdalen.
16 David was in a fortress, and some of the soldiers of Philistia were occupying Bethlehem.
Men David var den gongen i borgi, og ein av filistarvaktpost var då i Betlehem.
17 [One day] David was very thirsty and said, “I wish that someone would bring me some water from the well near the gate at Bethlehem!”
Då fekk David brått ein sterk hug og sagde: «Å um einkvan vilde gjeva meg vatn å drikka utor brunnen som er attmed porten i Betlehem!»
18 So those three most outstanding warriors forced their way through the camp of Philistia soldiers and drew some water from the well, and brought it to David. But he would not drink it. Instead, he poured it out [on the ground to be an offering] to Yahweh.
Då slo dei tri seg gjenom filistarlægret og auste vatn utor brunnen ved porten i Betlehem, og tok og bar det åt David. Men David vilde ikkje drikka det, men helte det ut for Herren.
19 He said, “Yahweh, it would certainly not be right for me to drink this water! That would be like [RHQ] drinking the blood of these men who were willing/ready to die for me!” So he refused to drink it. That was one of the things that those three most outstanding warriors did.
For han sagde: «Gud late det aldri koma i mine tankar at eg skulde gjera slikt! Skulde eg drikka blodet av desse mennerne som hev våga livet? For med livs vågnad hev dei bore det hit.» Han vilde ikkje drikka det. Dette hadde dei tri kjemporne gjort.
20 Joab’s [younger] brother Abishai was the leader of the 30 most mighty warriors. [One time] Abishai fought 300 [enemy] soldiers with his spear and killed them.
Absai, bror hans Joab, var føraren for dei tri; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri.
21 So he became as famous as those three most outstanding warriors. He became their commander, even though he was not one of those three men.
Han var ein gong til so mykje vyrd som nokon annan i dette tritalet, og han var hovdingen deira; men endå nådde han ikkje upp til dei tri fyrste.
22 Jehoiada’s son Benaiah was a brave soldier from Kabzeel [town] who did heroic deeds. He killed two of the best warriors from [the] Moab [people-group]. One day he went down into a pit when snow was falling [on the ground] and killed a lion there.
Benaja, son hans Jojada, som var son åt ein djerv og dådrik mann frå Kabse’el, han drap dei tvo Arielarne i Moab, og det var han som steig ned i brunnen ein snøversdag og slo i hel ei løva der.
23 He also killed a soldier from Egypt who was (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) tall. The soldier from Egypt carried a spear that was as long as a weaver’s rod. Benaiah had [only] a club, but he grabbed the other man’s spear and killed him with it.
Han felte og den risestore egyptaren som var fem alner høg. Endå egyptaren hadde eit spjot i handi som liktest stor-riven i ein vev, so gjekk han imot honom, og hadde ikkje anna til verja enn staven sin. Og han rykte spjotet ut or handi på egyptaren og drap honom med hans eige spjot.
24 Those are some of the things that Benaiah did. So he became as famous as the three mighty warriors.
Dette hadde Benaja Jojadason gjort. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri kjemporne.
25 He was more honored than the other members of the group of thirty most mighty warriors, but he did not become a member of the group of three most outstanding warriors. David appointed him to be the leader of his bodyguards.
Ja, han var meir vyrd enn nokon av dei tretti; men upp til dei tri fyrste nådde han ikkje. Og David sette honom til hovding yver livvakti si.
