< 1 Samuel 4 >
1 And Samuel told to all the people of Israel the messages that God gave him. At that time the Israeli army went to fight against the army of the Philistine people. The Israeli army set up their tents at Ebenezer, and the Philistine army set up their tents at Aphek.
I stalo se vedlé řeči Samuelovy všemu lidu Izraelskému. Nebo když vytáhl Izrael proti Filistinským k boji, a položili se při Eben-Ezer, Filistinští pak položili se v Afeku;
2 The Philistine army attacked the Israeli army, and as the battle continued, the Philistines defeated the Israelis and killed about 4,000 of their soldiers.
A když se sšikovali Filistinští proti Izraelovi, a již se potýkali: poražen jest Izrael od Filistinských, tak že jich zbito v té bitvě na poli takměř čtyři tisíce mužů.
3 When the remaining Israeli soldiers returned to their camp, the Israeli elders/leaders said, “Why did Yahweh allow the Philistine army to defeat us today? We should bring the chest that contains the Ten Commandments here from Shiloh, in order that Yahweh will go with us [when we go to the battle again, and] in order that our enemies will not defeat us again!”
I navrátil se lid do stanů, a řekli starší Izraelští: Proč nás dnes Hospodin porazil před Filistinskými? Vezměme k sobě z Sílo truhlu smlouvy Hospodinovy, ať přijde mezi nás, a vysvobodí nás z rukou nepřátel našich.
4 So the soldiers did that. They sent some men to Shiloh, and those men brought back the chest that contained the Ten Commandments. [They thought that if they did that, Yahweh would help them. They believed that] Yahweh sat on a throne between the statues of winged creatures [that were on top of] the chest that Yahweh Almighty [had given them]. The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, went with them.
Poslal tedy lid do Sílo, a vzali odtud truhlu smlouvy Hospodina zástupů, sedícího na cherubínech. Byli také tam dva synové Elí s truhlou smlouvy Boží, Ofni a Fínes.
5 When the Israeli people saw [the men bringing] the box into their camp, they were so happy that they shouted loudly. They shouted so loudly that they made the ground shake!
Když pak přinesena byla truhla smlouvy Hospodinovy do vojska, zkřikl všecken Izrael s velikým plésáním, až země vzněla.
6 The Philistines asked, “What are the people in the Hebrew camp shouting about?” Someone told them that they were shouting because the chest that contained the Ten Commandments of Yahweh had been brought to them.
Uslyševše pak Filistinští hluk plésání, řekli: Jaký jest to hlas výskání velikého tohoto v vojště Hebrejském? I poznali, že truhla Hospodinova přišla do vojska.
7 Then the Philistines became very afraid. They said, “One of the Israelis’ gods has come into their camp [to help them] We are in big trouble now! Nothing like this has happened to us before!
Protož báli se Filistinští, když praveno bylo: Přišel Bůh do vojska jejich; a řekli: Běda nám, nebo nebylo prvé nic k tomu podobného.
8 (Who can/Can anyone) save us from their powerful gods [RHQ]? They are the gods who struck the people of Egypt with many plagues [before the Israelis left Egypt and traveled] through the desert.
Běda nám! Kdo nás vysvobodí z ruky těch bohů silných? Tiť jsou bohové, kteříž zbili Egypt všelikou ranou i na poušti.
9 You Philistine men, be courageous! Fight very hard! If you do not do that, [they will defeat us, and then] you will become their slaves, just like they have been our slaves previously!”
Posilňte se a buďte muži, ó Filistinští, abyste nesloužili těm Hebrejským, jako oni sloužili vám; buďtež tedy muži a bojujte.
10 So the Philistine men fought very hard, and they defeated the Israelis. They killed 30,000 Israeli soldiers, and the other Israeli soldiers fled and ran away to their tents.
Bojovali tedy Filistinští, a poražen jest Izrael, a utíkali jeden každý do stanu svého. I byla ta porážka veliká velmi, nebo padlo z Izraele třidceti tisíc pěších;
11 The Philistines captured the sacred chest, and they killed Eli’s two sons, Hophni and Phinehas.
Také truhla Boží vzata, a dva synové Elí zabiti, Ofni a Fínes.
12 On that same day, one man of the tribe [descended from] Benjamin tore his clothes and threw dirt on his head [to show that he was very sad]. He ran from the place where the armies were fighting, and he arrived at Shiloh late [that afternoon].
Běže pak jeden Beniaminský z bitvy, přišel do Sílo téhož dne, maje roucho roztržené a hlavu prstí posypanou.
13 Eli was waiting beside the road. [He wanted to hear news about the battle, and] he was also very anxious to know if anything bad had happened to God’s sacred chest. When the messenger arrived and told people what had happened, everyone in the town started to cry loudly.
Přišel tedy, a aj, Elí seděl na stolici při cestě, hledě, nebo srdce jeho lekalo se za truhlu Boží; a když všel muž ten, a oznámil v městě, kvílilo všecko město.
14 Eli asked, “Why are they making all that noise?” The messenger ran over to Eli and told him the news.
A uslyšev Elí hlas křiku toho, řekl: Jaký jest to hlas hřmotu tohoto? Muž pak ten pospíchaje, přiběhl, aby oznámil Elí.
15 At that time, Eli was 98 years old, and he was blind.
(A byl Elí v devadesáti a osmi letech; oči také jeho byly již pošly, a nemohl viděti.)
16 The messenger said to Eli, “I have just come from where the armies were fighting. I left there earlier today.” Eli asked, “What happened?”
I řekl muž ten k Elí: Já jdu z bitvy, z bitvy zajisté utekl jsem dnes. I dí jemu on: Co se tam stalo, můj synu?
17 The man replied, “The Philistines defeated our Israeli army. They killed thousands of our soldiers, and the others ran away. The Philistines killed your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas. They also captured God’s sacred chest.”
Odpověděl ten posel a řekl: Utekl Izrael před Filistinskými, také i porážka veliká stala se v lidu, ano i oba synové tvoji zabiti jsou, Ofni a Fínes, a truhla Boží jest vzata.
18 Eli was very old, and he was very fat; and when he heard what had happened to the sacred chest, he fell backward from his chair beside the town gate. His neck was broken and he died. He had led the Israeli people for 40 years before he died.
I stalo se, že jakž jmenoval truhlu Boží, spadl Elí s stolice nazpět při úhlu brány, a tak zlomiv šíji, umřel; nebo byl muž starý a těžký. On soudil Izraele čtyřidceti let.
19 The wife/widow of Eli’s son Phinehas was pregnant, and it was almost time for her to give birth to her baby. When she heard that God’s sacred chest had been captured and that her husband and her father-in-law were dead, her labor pains suddenly began. She quickly gave birth to a boy.
Nevěsta pak jeho, manželka Fínesova, jsuc těhotná a blízká porodu, uslyševši také tu pověst, že by truhla Boží vzata byla, a že umřel tchán její i muž její, sklonila se a porodila; nebo se obořily na ni úzkosti její.
20 The women who were helping her tried to encourage her by saying to her, “You have given birth to a son!” But she did not pay any attention [DOU] to what they said.
A v ten čas, když ona umírala, řekly, kteréž stály při ní: Neboj se, však jsi porodila syna. Kteráž nic neodpověděla, aniž toho připustila k srdci svému.
21 She named the boy Ichabod, which means ‘no glory’, because she said, “[God’s] glory has departed from Israel.” She said that because God’s sacred chest had been captured and because her husband and her father-in-law had died.
I nazvala dítě Ichabod, řkuci: Přestěhovala se sláva z Izraele; proto že vzata byla truhla Boží, a umřel tchán i muž její.
22 She said, “[God’s] glory has left Israel, because God’s sacred chest has been captured!” And then she died.
Protož řekla: Přestěhovala se sláva z Izraele, nebo vzata jest truhla Boží.
