< 2 Samuel 21 >
1 During the time that David [ruled], there was a famine [in Israel] for three years. David prayed to Yahweh about it. And Yahweh said, “[In order for the famine to end], Saul’s family needs to be punished [MTY] because Saul killed many people from Gibeon [city].”
Byl pak hlad za dnů Davidových tři léta pořád. I hledal David tváři Hospodinovy. Jemuž řekl Hospodin: Pro Saule a pro dům jeho vražedlný, nebo zmordoval Gabaonitské.
2 The people of Gibeon were not Israelis; they were a small group of the Amor people-group whom the Israelis had solemnly promised to protect. But Saul had tried to kill all of them because he (was very zealous/wanted very much) to enable the people of Judah and Israel [to be the only ones living in that land]. So the king summoned the leaders of Gibeon
Tedy povolav král Gabaonitských, mluvil k nim. (Gabaonitští pak nebyli z synů Izraelských, ale z ostatků Amorejských, jimž ačkoli byli synové Izraelští přísahou se zavázali, však Saul usiloval je vypléniti, v horlivosti své pro syny Izraelské a Judské.)
3 and said to them, “What shall I do for you? How can I make amends/up for what was done to your people, in order that you will bless us who belong to Yahweh?”
A řekl David Gabaonitským: Což vám učiním a čím vás spokojím, abyste dobrořečili dědictví Hospodinovu?
4 They replied, “You cannot settle our quarrel with Saul and his family by giving us silver or gold. And we do not have the right to kill any Israelis.” So David asked, “Then/So what do you say that I should do for you?”
Odpověděli jemu Gabaonitští: Není nám o stříbro ani o zlato činiti s Saulem a domem jeho, ani o bezživotí někoho z Izraele. I řekl: Cožkoli díte, učiním vám.
5 They replied, “Saul [wanted to] get rid of us. He wanted to annihilate/kill all of us, in order that none of us would live anywhere in Israel.
Kteříž řekli králi: Muže toho, kterýž vyhubil nás, a kterýž ukládal o nás, vyhladíme, aby nezůstal v žádných končinách Izraelských.
6 Hand over to us seven of Saul’s descendants. We will hang them where Yahweh is worshiped in Gibeon, our town, the town where Saul, whom Yahweh previously chose to be king, lived.” The king replied, “Okay, I will hand them over to you.”
Nechť jest nám dáno sedm mužů z jeho synů, a zvěsíme je Hospodinu u Gabaa Saulova, kteréhož byl vyvolil Hospodin. I řekl král: Já dám.
7 The king did not hand over to them Saul’s grandson Mephibosheth, because of what he and [Mephibosheth’s father] Jonathan had solemnly promised to each other.
Odpustil pak král Mifibozetovi synu Jonaty, syna Saulova, pro přísahu Hospodinovu, kteráž byla mezi nimi, mezi Davidem a Jonatou synem Saulovým.
8 Instead, he took Armoni and another man named Mephibosheth, the two sons that Saul’s slave wife Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, had given birth to, and the five sons that Saul’s daughter Merab had given birth to. Merab’s husband was Adriel, the son of a man named Barzillai from Meholah [town].
Ale vzal král dva syny Rizpy dcery Aja, kteréž porodila Saulovi, Armona a Mifibozeta, a pět synů sestry Míkol dcery Saulovy, kteréž byla porodila Adrielovi synu Barzillai Molatitského.
9 David handed those men over to the men from Gibeon. Then they hanged those seven men on a hill where they worshiped Yahweh. They were all killed during the time of the year that the people started to harvest the barley.
I vydal je v ruku Gabaonitských, kteréž zvěšeli na hoře před Hospodinem. A tak kleslo těch sedm spolu, a zbiti jsou při začátku žně, když počínali žíti ječmene.
10 Then Rizpah took coarse cloth made from goats’ hair, and spread it on the rock [where the corpses lay]. She stayed there from the time that people started to harvest the barley until the rains started. She did not allow any birds to come near the corpses during the day, and she did not allow any animals to come near during the night.
Rizpa pak, dcera Aja, vzavši žíni, prostřela ji sobě na skále při začátku žně, dokudž nepršel na ně déšť s nebe, a nedala ptákům nebeským sedati na ně ve dne, ani přicházeti zvěři polní v noci.
11 When someone told David what Rizpah had done,
Tedy oznámeno jest Davidovi, co učinila Rizpa dcera Aja, ženina Saulova.
12 he went with some of his servants to Jabesh in [the] Gilead [region] and got the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan. The people of Jabesh had stolen their bones from the (plaza/public square) in Beth-Shan [city], where the men from Philistia had hanged them previously, on the day that they had killed Saul and Jonathan on Gilboa [Mountain].
Protož odšed David, vzal kosti Saulovy a kosti Jonaty syna jeho od starších Jábes Galád, kteříž byli je ukradli na ulici Betsan, kdežto byli je zvěšeli Filistinští v ten den, když porazili Filistinští Saule v Gelboe.
13 David and his men took the bones of Saul and Jonathan, and they also took the bones of the seven men [from Gibeon] whom the men from Philistia had hanged.
Vzal, pravím, odtud kosti Saulovy a kosti Jonaty syna jeho; i kosti těch, kteříž zvěšeni byli, sebrali.
14 They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan in Zela [town] in the land of [the tribe of] Benjamin. Doing all that the king commanded, they buried their bones in the tomb where Saul’s father Kish [was buried]. After that, [because] God [saw that Saul’s family had been punished to pay for Saul’s murder of many people from Gibeon, he] answered the Israelis’ prayers for their land, and caused the famine to end.
A pochovali je s kostmi Saulovými a Jonaty syna jeho, v zemi Beniamin, v Sela, v hrobě Cis otce jeho; a učinili všecko, což byl přikázal král, a potom slitoval se Bůh nad zemí.
15 The army of Philistia again started to fight against the army of Israel. And David and his soldiers went to fight the Philistines. During the battle, David became weary.
Vznikla pak opět válka Filistinských proti Izraelovi. I vytáhl David a služebníci jeho s ním, a bili se s Filistinskými, tak že ustal David.
16 One of the Philistia men thought that he could kill David. His name was Ishbi-Benob. He was a descendant of [a group of] giants. He carried a bronze spear that weighed about (7-1/2 pounds/3-1/2 kg.), and he also had a new sword.
Tedy Izbibenob, kterýž byl z synů jednoho obra, (jehož kopí hrot vážil tři sta lotů oceli, a měl připásaný k sobě meč nový), myslil zabiti Davida.
17 But Abishai came to help David, and attacked the giant and killed him. Then David’s soldiers forced him to promise that he would not go with them into a battle again. They said to him, “[If you die, and none of your descendants become king, that would be like] [MET] extinguishing the last light in Israel.”
Ale retoval ho Abizai syn Sarvie, a raniv toho Filistinského, zabil jej. Protož muži Davidovi přisáhli, řkouce jemu: Nepůjdeš více s námi do boje, abys nezhasil svíce Izraelské.
18 Some time after that, there was a battle with the army of Philistia near Gob [village]. During the battle, Sibbecai, from [the] Hushah [clan], killed Saph, one of the descendants of the Rapha giants.
Opět byla válka v Gob s Filistinskými. Tehdáž Sibbechai Chusatský zabil Sáfu, kterýž byl z synů téhož obra.
19 [Later] there was another battle with the army of Philistia at Gob. During that battle, Elhanan, the son of Jaare-Oregim from Bethlehem, killed [the brother of] Goliath from Gath [city]; Goliath’s spear shaft/handle was (very thick, like the bar on a weaver’s loom/over two inches thick).
Byla ještě i jiná válka s Filistinskými v Gob, kdež Elchánan syn Járe Oregim Betlémský zabil bratra Goliáše Gittejského, u jehož kopí bylo dřevo jako vratidlo tkadlcovské.
20 Later there was another battle near Gath. There was a (huge man/giant) there who liked to fight [in battles]. He had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. He was descended from [the] Rapha [giants].
Potom byla také válka v Gát. A byl tam muž veliké postavy, kterýž měl u rukou a u noh po šesti prstech, všech čtyřmecítma, a byl také syn toho obra.
21 But when he (made fun of/ridiculed) the men in the Israeli [army], Jonathan, the son of David’s [older] brother Shimeah, killed him.
Ten když haněl Izraele, zabil ho Jonata, syn Semmaa bratra Davidova.
22 Those four men were some of the descendants of the Rapha giants who had lived in Gath, who were killed [MTY] by David and his soldiers.
Ti čtyři byli synové jednoho obra v Gát, kteříž padli od ruky Davidovy a od ruky služebníků jeho.
