< 2 Samuel 19 >
1 Someone told Joab that the king was crying and mourning because Absalom had died.
To je bilo povedano Joábu: »Glej, kralj joka in žaluje za Absalomom.«
2 All of David’s soldiers became sad. Instead of rejoicing about defeating [the soldiers who had fought with Absalom], they were sad because they heard that the king was mourning because Absalom [was dead].
Zmaga tega dne je bila obrnjena v žalovanje vsemu ljudstvu, kajti ljudstvo je tisti dan slišalo govoriti, kako je bil kralj užaloščen zaradi svojega sina.
3 The soldiers returned to the city quietly, like [SIM] soldiers do when they are ashamed because they ran away from battle.
Ljudstvo se je tisti dan skrivoma spravilo v mesto, kakor se ljudstvo, ki je osramočeno, odplazi, ko v boju zbeži.
4 The king covered his face [with his hands] and kept crying loudly, “O, my son Absalom! O, Absalom, my son! My son!”
Toda kralj je pokril svoj obraz in kralj je jokal z močnim glasom: »Oh moj sin Absalom, oh Absalom, moj sin, moj sin!«
5 Then Joab entered the room where the king was, and said to the king, “Today you have caused your soldiers to be ashamed! You have humiliated the men who saved your life and the lives of your sons and daughters and your ordinary wives and your slave wives!
Joáb je prišel v hišo h kralju in rekel: »Ta dan si osramotil obraze vseh svojih služabnikov, ki so ta dan rešili tvoje življenje in življenja tvojih sinov in tvojih hčera in življenja tvojih soprog in življenja tvojih priležnic,
6 [It seems that] you love those who hate you and [that] you hate those who love you. You have caused it to be clear today that your commanders and your officers are not at all important to you. I think that if Absalom were still alive and we were all dead today, you would be happy.
v tem, da ti ljubiš svoje sovražnike in sovražiš svoje prijatelje. Kajti ta dan si oznanil, da se ne oziraš niti na prince niti na služabnike, kajti ta dan zaznavam, da če bi Absalom živel in bi ta dan mi vsi umrli, potem bi ti to dobro ugajalo.
7 So, now go and thank your soldiers [for what they did]. Because I solemnly declare that if you do not do that, none of them will still be with you by tomorrow morning and that would be worse [for you] than all the disasters/troubles that you have experienced since you were a boy.”
Zdaj torej vstani, pojdi naprej in tolažilno govori svojim služabnikom, kajti prisegam pri Gospodu, če ne greš naprej, to noč nobeden ne bo ostal s teboj in huje ti bo kakor vse zlo, ki te je zadelo od tvoje mladosti do sedaj.«
8 So the king got up and went and sat near the city gate. And all the people were told, “Hey, the king is sitting at the gate!” So they all came and gathered around him. Meanwhile, all the Israeli troops [who had been with Absalom] had returned to their homes.
Potem je kralj vstal in se usedel pri velikih vratih. In vsemu ljudstvu so povedali, rekoč: »Glejte, kralj sedi pri velikih vratih.« Vse ljudstvo je prišlo pred kralja, kajti Izrael je zbežal vsak mož k svojemu šotoru.
9 Then all the people throughout the tribes of Israel started to quarrel among themselves. They said to each other, “King David rescued us from the people of Philistia and from our other enemies. But now he has fled from Absalom and left Israel!
Vse ljudstvo je bilo nesložno po vseh Izraelovih rodovih, rekoč: »Kralj nas je rešil iz roke naših sovražnikov in nas osvobodil iz roke Filistejcev; sedaj pa je zaradi Absaloma pobegnil iz dežele.
10 We appointed [MTY] Absalom to be our king, but he died in the battle [against David’s soldiers]. So (why does someone not try to bring King David back?/surely someone should try to bring King David back.)” [RHQ]
Absalom, ki smo ga mazilili nad seboj, je mrtev v bitki. Zdaj torej, zakaj ne spregovorite besedo o privedbi kralja nazaj?«
11 King David [found out what the people were saying. So he] sent the two priests, Zadok and Abiathar, to say to the leaders of Judah, “The king says that he has heard that all the Israeli people [want him to be king again]. And he says, ‘(Why should you be the last ones to bring me back to my palace?/It is not right that you be the last ones to bring me back to my palace.) [RHQ]
Kralj David je poslal k duhovnikoma Cadóku in Abjatárju, rekoč: »Govorita Judovim starešinam, rekoč: ›Zakaj ste zadnji, da bi privedli kralja nazaj v njegovo hišo, glede na to, da je govor vsega Izraela prišel do kralja, celó k njegovi hiši.
12 You are my relatives; we have the same ancestor [IDM]. So (why should you be the last ones to bring me back?/you should certainly not be the last ones to bring me back.) [RHQ]’”
Vi ste moji bratje, vi ste moje kosti in moje meso. Zakaj ste potem zadnji, da kralja pripeljete nazaj?‹
13 And say to Amasa, “You are one of my relatives. I hope/desire that God strike me dead [IDM] if I do not appoint you to be, from now on, the commander of my army instead of Joab.”
In Amasáju recite: › Ali nisi ti od moje kosti in od mojega mesa? Bog naj mi tako stori in še več, če ne boš nenehno pred menoj poveljnik vojske na Joábovem položaju.‹«
14 [By sending that message to them, ] David convinced all the people of Judah [IDM] [that they should (be loyal to him/accept him as their king]). So they sent a message to the king, saying “We want you and all your officials to return here.”
In nagnil je srce vseh Judovih mož, celo kakor srce enega človeka, tako da so kralju poslali to besedo: »Vrni se ti in vsi tvoji služabniki.«
15 So the king [and his officials started back toward Jerusalem]. When they reached the Jordan [River], the people of Judah came there to Gilgal to meet the king, and to bring him across the river.
Tako se je kralj vrnil in prišel k Jordanu. In Juda je prišel v Gilgál, da gre, da sreča kralja, da spremi kralja čez Jordan.
16 Shimei, the man from the tribe of Benjamin, also came down quickly [to the river] with the people of Judah to meet King David.
In Šimí, Gerájev sin, Benjaminovec, ki je bil iz Bahuríma, je pohitel in prišel dol z Judovimi možmi, da sreča kralja Davida.
17 There were 1,000 men from the tribe of Benjamin who came with him. And Ziba, who had been the servant of Saul, also hurried down to the Jordan [River], bringing 20 of his servants with him. They all came to the king,
Tam je bilo z njim tisoč mož iz Benjamina in Cibá, služabnik Savlove hiše in njegovih petnajst sinov in njegovih dvajset služabnikov z njim in pred kraljem so šli čez Jordan.
18 and then they all [prepared to] take the king and all his family across the river, at the place where they could walk across it. They wanted to do whatever the king wanted them to do. As the king was about to cross the river, Shimei came to him and prostrated himself in front of the king.
Tam je šla čez rečna ladja, da prenese čez kraljevo družino in da stori, kar se mu je zdelo dobro. Gerájev sin Šimí pa je padel dol pred kraljem, ko je ta hotel iti čez Jordan
19 He said to the king, “Your Majesty, please forgive me. Please do not keep thinking about the terrible thing that I did on the day that you left Jerusalem. Do not think about it any more.
in kralju rekel: »Naj moj gospod krivičnosti ne pripiše meni niti se ne spominjaj tega, kar je tvoj služabnik sprevrženo storil tistega dne, ko je moj gospod kralj odšel iz Jeruzalema, da bi si to kralj vzel k srcu.
20 Because I know that I have sinned. Look, I have come today, the first one from the northern tribes to come here to greet you today, Your Majesty.”
Kajti tvoj služabnik ve, da sem grešil. Glej, zato sem ta dan prvi prišel iz vse Jožefove hiše, da grem dol, da srečam svojega gospoda kralja.«
21 But Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, said, “He cursed the one that Yahweh appointed [MTY] to be the king! So (should he not be executed for doing that?/he certainly should be executed for doing that.)” [RHQ]
Toda Cerújin sin Abišáj je odgovoril in rekel: »Ali ne bo Šimí usmrčen zaradi tega, ker je preklinjal Gospodovega maziljenca?«
22 But David said, “You sons of Zeruiah, what am I going to do with you? (OR, you are not the ones who should decide [what to do to him]). [It is as though] you have become my enemies today. I know that I am the one who has now become the king of Israel, [so I say that] certainly no one [RHQ] in Israel should be executed today.”
David pa je rekel: »Kaj imam z vama, vidva, Cerújina sinova, da bi mi bila ta dan nasprotnika? Ali naj bo ta dan kdorkoli usmrčen v Izraelu? Kajti ali ne vem, da sem ta dan kralj nad Izraelom?«
23 Then the king said to Shimei, “I solemnly promise that I will not execute you.”
Zato je kralj rekel Šimíju: »Ne boš umrl.« In kralj mu je prisegel.
24 Then Miphibosheth, Saul’s grandson, came down [to the river] to greet the king. He had not washed his feet or trimmed his beard or washed his clothes, from the time that the king left Jerusalem until the day that he returned.
Savlov sin Mefibóšet je prišel dol, da sreča kralja in niti ni obul svojih stopal, niti ni postrigel svoje brade, niti ni umil svojih oblačil od dneva, ko je kralj odpotoval, do dneva, ko je ponovno prišel v miru.
25 When he arrived from Jerusalem to greet the king, the king said to him, “Mephibosheth, why did you not go with me?”
Pripetilo se je, ko je prišel v Jeruzalem, da sreča kralja, da mu je kralj rekel: »Zakaj nisi šel z menoj, Mefibóšet?«
26 He replied, “Your Majesty, [you know that] I am crippled. [When I heard that you were leaving Jerusalem, ] I said to my servant [Ziba], ‘Put a saddle on my donkey in order that I can ride on it and go with the king.’ But he deceived me [and left without me].
Ta je odgovoril: »Moj gospod, oh kralj, moj služabnik me je zavedel, kajti tvoj služabnik je rekel: ›Osedlal si bom osla, da bom lahko jahal na njem in šel h kralju, ker je tvoj služabnik hrom.‹
27 And he lied to you about me. But, Your Majesty, you are [as wise] as God’s angel. So do whatever seems right to you.
In ta je obrekoval tvojega služabnika mojemu gospodu kralju, toda moj gospod kralj je kakor angel od Boga. Stôri torej, kar je dobro v tvojih očeh.
28 All of my grandfather’s family expected/deserved that we would be executed. But [you did not execute me; ] you allowed me to eat food with you at your table! So I certainly do not have [RHQ] the right to request you for anything more.”
Kajti vsi iz hiše mojega očeta so bili le kot mrtvi možje pred mojim gospodom kraljem, vendar si svojega služabnika postavil med tiste, ki so jedli pri tvoji lastni mizi. Kakšno pravico imam torej, da še kakorkoli kličem h kralju?«
29 The king replied, “You certainly do not need to say any more. I have decided that you and Ziba will divide [equally] the land [that belonged to your grandfather Saul].”
Kralj mu je rekel: »Zakaj še govoriš o svojih zadevah? Rekel sem: ›Ti in Cibá si razdelita deželo.‹«
30 Mephibosheth replied to the king, “Your Majesty, [I am content that] you have returned safely. So allow him to take all the land.”
Mefibóšet je rekel kralju: »Da, naj on vzame vse, potem ko se je moj gospod kralj v miru ponovno vrnil v svojo lastno hišo.«
31 Barzillai, the man from [the] Gilead [region], had come down to the Jordan [River] from [his town of] Rogelim, to escort the king across the river.
Gileádec Barziláj je prišel dol iz Roglíma in s kraljem odšel čez Jordan, da ga spremi čez Jordan.
32 Barzillai was a very old man, 80 years old. He was a very wealthy man, and he had provided food for the king [and his soldiers] while they were at Mahanaim.
Torej Barziláj je bil zelo ostarel mož, star celó osemdeset let. Kralju je priskrbel oskrbo, medtem ko je ta ležal pri Mahanájimu, kajti bil je zelo izjemen človek.
33 The king said to Barzillai, “Come with me to Jerusalem, and I will take care of you.”
Kralj je rekel Barziláju: »Z menoj pridi čez in hranil te bom v Jeruzalemu.«
34 But Barzillai replied, “I certainly do not have [RHQ] many more years to live. So (why should I go with you to Jerusalem?/there is certainly no reason for me to go with you to Jerusalem.) [RHQ]
Barziláj pa je kralju rekel: »Doklej bom še živel, da bi s kraljem šel gor v Jeruzalem?
35 I am now 80 years old. I do not [RHQ] know what is enjoyable and what is not enjoyable. I cannot [RHQ] enjoy what I eat and what I drink. I cannot [RHQ] hear the voices of men and women as they sing. So (why should I be another burden to you?/I do not want to be another burden to you.) [RHQ]
Ta dan sem star osemdeset let in ali lahko razločim med dobrim in zlom? Ali lahko tvoj služabnik okuša, kar jem ali kar pijem? Ali še lahko slišim glas prepevajočih mož in prepevajočih žensk? Zakaj bi bil torej tvoj služabnik še breme mojemu gospodu kralju?
36 I will cross the Jordan [River] with you and go a little further, and that will be all the reward that I need [for helping you].
Tvoj služabnik bo s kraljem šel krajšo pot čez Jordan. Zakaj bi me kralj poplačal s takšno nagrado?
37 Then please allow me to return to my home, because that is where I want to die, near my parents’ grave. But here is [my son] Chimham. Your Majesty, allow him to go with you [and serve you], and do for him whatever seems good to you!”
Naj se tvoj služabnik, prosim te, obrne nazaj, da lahko umrem v svojem lastnem mestu in pokopan bom poleg groba svojega očeta in svoje matere. Toda poglej svojega služabnika Kimháma. Naj gre on preko z mojim gospodom kraljem in stôri mu, kakor se ti zdi dobro.«
38 The king replied, “Okay, he will cross [the river] with me, and I will do for him whatever seems good to you. And I will do for you whatever you want me to do.”
Kralj je odgovoril: »Kimhám bo z menoj šel preko in storil mu bom to, kar se ti zdi dobro in karkoli boš zahteval od mene, to bom storil zate.«
39 Then King David and all the others crossed the Jordan [River]. He kissed Barzillai and [asked God to] bless him. Then Barzillai returned to his home.
In vse ljudstvo je šlo čez Jordan. Ko je kralj prišel čez, je kralj poljubil Barzilája in ga blagoslovil, in ta se je vrnil na svoj lasten kraj.
40 [After they crossed the river, ] Chimham went with the king, and all the army of Judah and half the army of the other Israeli tribes escorted/accompanied the king to Gilgal.
Potem je kralj odšel naprej h Gilgálu in Kimhám je z njim odšel naprej in vse Judovo ljudstvo je spremilo kralja in tudi polovica Izraelovega ljudstva.
41 Then all the soldiers from the other Israeli tribes came to the king and said, “(Why is it that our relatives, the men from Judah, took you away from us and wanted to be the only ones to escort you and your family across the river, along with all your men?/It is not right that our relatives, the men from Judah, took you away from us and wanted to be the only ones to escort you and your family across the river, along with all your men.) [RHQ] [Why did you not request us to do that]?” [RHQ]
Glej, vsi Izraelovi možje so prišli h kralju in kralju rekli: »Zakaj so te naši bratje, Judovi možje, ukradli in privedli kralja, njegovo družino in vse Davidove može z njim, čez Jordan?«
42 The soldiers from Judah replied, “We did it because the king is from Judah. So (why are you angry about that?/you should not be angry about that.) [RHQ] The king has never paid for our food, and he has never given us any gifts.”
In vsi možje iz Juda so Izraelovim možem odgovorili: »Ker nam je kralj bližnji sorodnik. Zakaj ste potem jezni zaradi te zadeve? Ali smo sploh jedli na kraljeve stroške? Ali nam je dal kakršnokoli darilo?«
43 The men of the other Israeli tribes replied, “[There are ten tribes in Israel, and only one in Judah. So] it is ten times more right for us to say that David [is our king] than it is for you to say that. So why are you despising us [RHQ]? We were certainly [RHQ] the first ones to talk about bringing David back [to Jerusalem to be our king again].” But the men of Judah spoke more harshly than the men from the other tribes of Israel did.
Izraelovi možje so odgovorili Judovim možem in rekli: »V kralju imamo deset delov in mi imamo več pravice do Davida kakor vi. Čemu nas potem prezirate, da naš nasvet ne bi bil prvi v tem, da smo svojega kralja privedli nazaj?« In besede mož iz Juda so bile trše kakor besede mož iz Izraela.
