2 Samuel 17
1 Then Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Allow me to choose 12,000 men, and I will leave [with them] tonight to pursue David.
Řekl ještě Achitofel Absolonovi: Nechť medle vyberu dvanácte tisíc mužů, abych vstana, honil Davida noci této.
2 We will attack him while he is tired and discouraged, and cause him to be very frightened. All the soldiers who are with him will run away. We will kill only the king.
A dostihna ho, dokudž jest ustalý a zemdlené má ruce, předěsím jej, a uteče všecken lid, kterýž jest s ním, i zamorduji krále samého.
3 Then we will bring back all his soldiers to you, like [SIM] a (bride/woman comes to her husband when she is married). You are wanting to kill only one man; so the other people will not be harmed.”
A tak obrátím všecken lid k tobě; nebo jako bych je všecky obrátil, když zhyne ten muž, kteréhož ty hledáš. O lid ty se nic nestarej.
4 Absalom and all the Israeli leaders [who were with him] thought that what Ahithophel said would be good to do.
I líbila se ta řeč Absolonovi i všechněm starším Izraelským.
5 But Absalom said, “Summon Hushai also, and we will hear what he suggests.”
A však řekl Absolon: Zavolej sem hned Chusai Architského, abychom slyšeli, co i on mluviti bude.
6 So when Hushai arrived, Absalom told him what Ahithophel had suggested. Then he asked Hushai, “What do you think we should do? If you do not think that we should do what Ahithophel suggests, tell us [what you think that we should do].”
Když pak přišel Chusai k Absolonovi, mluvil k němu Absolon, řka: Takto mluvil Achitofel. Máme-li učiniti vedlé řeči jeho, čili nic? Pověz ty.
7 Hushai replied, “This time what Ahithophel has suggested is not good advice.
Tedy řekl Chusai Absolonovi: Neníť dobrá rada, kterouž dal Achitofel nyní.
8 You know that your father and the men who are with him are strong soldiers, and that now they are very angry, like [SIM] a mother bear whose cubs have been stolen from her. Furthermore, your father knows how to fight because he has fought in many battles. He will not stay with his troops during the night.
Dále mluvil Chusai: Ty víš o otci svém i mužích jeho, že jsou udatní, k tomu zjitření na mysli, jako nedvědice osiřelá v poli. Nadto otec tvůj jest muž válečný, kterýž nebude nocovati s lidem.
9 Right now he is probably already hiding in one of the pits, or in some other place. [If his soldiers start to attack your soldiers, and] if they kill some of them, whoever hears about that will say ‘Many of the soldiers with Absalom have been killed!’
Nýbrž nyní spíše v záloze stojí v nějaké jeskyni, aneb v některém jiném místě. I stalo by se, jestliže by kteří padli z těch tvých při začátku, že každý, kdož by o tom uslyšel, řekl by: Stala se porážka v lidu, kterýž postoupil po Absolonovi.
10 Then your other soldiers, even if they are as fearless [SIM, IDM] as lions, they will become very afraid. Do not forget that everyone in Israel knows that your father is a great/strong soldier, and that the soldiers who are with him are also very brave/courageous.
A tak by i silných reků srdce, kteréž jest jako srdce lva, škodlivě osláblo; nebo ví všecken Izrael, že jest zmužilý otec tvůj, a silní ti, kteříž jsou s ním.
11 “So what I suggest is that you summon all the Israeli soldiers, from Dan [in the far north] to Beersheba [in the far south]. They will be as many as the grains of sand on the seashore [HYP]. And then you yourself lead us into the battle.
Ale radím, abys, shromáždě k sobě všecken Izrael od Dan až do Bersabé, kterýž v množství jest jako písek při moři, ty sám životně vytáhl k boji.
12 We will find [your father], wherever he is, and we will attack him [from all sides], like [SIM] dew covers all the ground. And neither he nor any of the soldiers who are with him will survive.
A tak potáhneme proti němu, na kterém by koli místě nalezen býti mohl, a připadneme na něj, jako padá rosa na zemi; i nepozůstaneť z něho, totiž ze všech mužů, kteříž jsou při něm, ani jednoho.
13 If he escapes into some city, all our soldiers will bring ropes and pull that city down into the valley. As a result, not one stone will be left there [on top of the hill where that city was]!”
Jestliže by se pak shrnul do města, snesou všecken lid Izraelský k tomu městu provazy, a vtrhneme je až do potoka, tak aby tam ani kaménka nebylo lze najíti.
14 Absalom and all the other Israeli men [who were with him] said, “What Hushai suggests is better than what Ahithophel suggested.” The reason that happened was that Yahweh had determined that if they would accept the good advice that Ahithophel had given them, [they would have been able to defeat/kill David]. But [as a result of their doing what Hushai suggested], Yahweh would cause a disaster to happen to Absalom.
I řekl Absolon a všickni muži Izraelští: Lepšíť jest rada Chusai Architského, než rada Achitofelova. Hospodin zajisté to způsobil, aby zrušena byla rada Achitofelova, kteráž sic dobrá byla, aby tak uvedl Hospodin na Absolona zlé věci.
15 Then Hushai told the two priests, Zadok and Abiathar, what both he and Ahithophel had suggested to Absalom and the Israeli leaders.
Oznámil pak to Chusai Sádochovi a Abiatarovi kněžím: Tak a tak radil Achitofel Absolonovi a starším Izraelským, ale já takto a takto jsem radil.
16 Then he said to them, “Send [a message] quickly to David. Tell him to not stay at the place where people walk across the river, near the desert. Instead, he and his soldiers must cross [the Jordan River] immediately, in order that they will not be killed/wiped out.”
Nyní tedy pošlete rychle a oznamte Davidovi, řkouce: Nezůstavej přes noc na rovinách pouště, ale přeprav se bez meškání, aby snad nebyl sehlcen král i všecken lid, kterýž jest s ním.
17 [The priest’s two sons, ] Jonathan and Ahimaaz, were waiting at En-Rogel [Spring], outside Jerusalem. They did not [dare to] enter the city, because if someone saw them, [he would report it to Absalom]. [While they were at En-Rogel, ] a female servant [of the two priests] would frequently go to them and report to them [what was happening], and then they would go and report it to King David.
Jonata pak a Achimaas stáli u studnice Rogel. I šla tam děvečka a pověděla jim, aby oni jdouce, oznámili to králi Davidovi; nebo nesměli se ukázati aneb vjíti do města.
18 But a young man saw them, and went and reported it to Absalom. [They found out what the young man had done, ] so both of them left quickly and went to stay in the house of a man in Bahurim. That man had a well in his courtyard; so the two men went down into the well [to hide].
A však uzřel je služebník, a oznámil Absolonovi. Pročež odšedše oba rychle, vešli do domu muže v Bahurim, kterýž měl studnici na dvoře svém. I spustili se do ní.
19 The man’s wife took a cloth/mat and covered the well, and scattered grain on top of it in order that no one would know [that two men were hiding inside it].
A žena vzavši plachtu, rozestřela ji na vrch studnice, a nasypala na ni krup. A tak nebyla ta věc spatřína.
20 Some of Absalom’s soldiers [found out where the two men had gone. So they] went to the house, and asked the woman, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” She replied, “They crossed the river.” So the soldiers [crossed the river and] searched for them. But they could not find them, so they returned to Jerusalem.
Nebo když přišli služebníci Absolonovi k ženě do domu a řekli: Kde jest Achimaas a Jonata? odpověděla jim žena: Přešliť jsou ten potok. Hledavše tedy a nic nenalezše, navrátili se do Jeruzaléma.
21 After they had gone, the two men came out of the well and went and reported to King David [what had happened and] what Ahithophel had suggested. Then they said to him, “Cross the river quickly!”
A když oni odešli, tito vystoupivše z studnice, šli a oznámili králi Davidovi a řekli jemu: Vstaňte a přepravte se rychle přes vodu, nebo toto radil proti vám Achitofel.
22 So David and all his soldiers quickly started to cross the Jordan [River], and by dawn they had all crossed to the other side.
Protož vstav David a všecken lid, kterýž byl s ním, přepravili se přes Jordán, prvé než se rozednilo; a nezůstal ani jeden, ješto by se nepřepravil přes Jordán.
23 When Ahithophel realized that Absalom was not going to do what he suggested, he put a saddle on his donkey and returned to his own town. He gave [to his family] instructions about his possessions, and then he hanged himself [because he knew that Absalom would be defeated and that he would be considered a traitor and be killed]. His body was buried in the tomb where his ancestors [had been buried].
Tedy Achitofel vida, že se nestalo vedlé rady jeho, osedlal osla, a vstav, odjel do domu svého, do města svého. A učiniv pořízení v čeledi své, oběsil se a umřel; i pochován jest v hrobě otce svého.
24 David [and his soldiers] arrived at Mahanaim. And Absalom [and all his Israeli soldiers] also crossed the Jordan [River].
David pak byl již přišel do Mahanaim, když se Absolon přepravil přes Jordán, on i všecken lid Izraelský s ním.
25 Absalom had appointed [his cousin] Amasa to be the commander of his army, instead of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man named Jether, a descendant of Ishmael. Amasa’s mother was Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and the sister of Joab’s mother Zeruiah.
A tu ustanovil Absolon Amazu místo Joába nad vojskem. (Byl pak Amaza syn muže, jehož jméno bylo Jetra Izraelský, kterýž všel k Abigail dceři Náchas, sestře Sarvie matky Joábovy.)
26 Absalom and his Israeli soldiers set up their tents in [the] Gilead [region].
I položil se Izrael a Absolon v zemi Galád.
27 When David [and his soldiers] arrived at Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah [city] in the Ammon area, and Machir the son of Ammiel from Lo-Debar [city], and Barzillai from Rogelim [town] in [the] Gilead [region]
Stalo se pak, když přišel David do Mahanaim, že Sobi syn Náchas z Rabbat synů Ammon, a Machir syn Amielův z Lodebar, a Barzillai Galádský z Rogelim,
28 brought sleeping mats, bowls, clay pots, barley, wheat flour, parched grain, beans, and lentils to them.
Lůže, číše a nádoby hliněné, též pšenice, ječmene, mouky, krup, bobu, šocovice a pražmy,
29 They brought honey and curds, sheep, and some cream/cheese for David and his soldiers to eat. They knew that David and his soldiers would be hungry and tired and thirsty [from marching] in the desert.
Ano i medu, másla a ovcí i syrů kravských přinesli Davidovi a lidu, kterýž s ním byl, aby jedli. Nebo řekli: Lid ten jest hladovitý a ustalý, i žíznivý na té poušti.
