2 Samuel 13
1 It came about after this that Amnon son of David was very attracted to his beautiful half-sister Tamar, who was a full sister of Absalom, another of David's sons.
Sidan hende denne tilburden: Absalom Davidsson hadde ei væn syster som heitte Tamar, og Amnon Davidsson lagde hugen til henne.
2 Amnon was so frustrated that he became sick because of his sister Tamar. She was a virgin, and it seemed impossible to Amnon to do anything to her.
Ja Ammon pintest so, at han vart heiltupp sjuk av lyst til syster si; for ho var møy; og Ammon øygnde ingen utveg til å gjera henne noko.
3 But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother. Jonadab was a very shrewd man.
Amnon hadde ein ven, som heitte Jonadab, son til Simea, bror åt David. Jonadab var ein utkropen kar.
4 Jonadab said to Amnon, “Why, son of the king, are you depressed every morning? Will you not tell me?” So Amnon answered him, “I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.”
Han spurde honom: «Kvi magrast du so, du kongsson, frå dag til annan? Fortel meg det?» Amnon svara: «Eg hev huglagt Tamar, syster åt Absalom, bror min!»
5 Then Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed and pretend to be sick. When your father comes to see you, ask him, 'Would you please send my sister Tamar to give me something to eat and cook it before me, so that I may see it and eat it from her hand?'”
Då sagde Jonadab til honom: «Legg deg sjuk på sengi di! Og når far din kjem og ser til deg, so bed honom: «Kjære, lat Tamar, syster mi, koma og laga maten åt meg! Lat henne laga til mat for augo mine, so eg ser på! Og lat meg eta av hennar hand!»»
6 So Amnon lay down and pretended to be sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please send my sister Tamar to make some food for my sickness in front of me so that I may eat from her hand.”
Amnon lagde seg og lest som han var sjuk. Kongen kom og såg til honom. Og Amnon bad kongen: «Kjære, lat Tamar, syster mi, koma og laga tvo kakor åt meg so eg ser på og fær eta av hennar hand!»
7 Then David sent word to Tamar at his palace, saying, “Go now to your brother Amnon's house and prepare food for him.”
David sende då bod inn i huset til Tamar og bad henne: «Gakk til huset åt Amnon, bror din, og laga noko mat åt honom!»
8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house where he was lying down. She took dough and kneaded it and formed bread in his sight, and then she baked it.
Tamar gjekk til huset åt Amnon, bror sin, der han låg til sengs. Ho tok deig og knoda, og laga kakorne so han såg på, og steikte deim.
9 She took the pan and gave the bread to him, but he refused to eat. Then Amnon said to the others present, “Send everyone out, away from me.” So everyone went out from him.
So tok ho panna og hadde deim or for honom; men han vilde ikkje eta. So sagde Amnon: «Gakk ut alle mann!» Og dei so gjorde.
10 So Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into my room that I may eat from your hand.” So Tamar took the bread that she had made, and brought it into the room of Amnon her brother.
So segjer han med Tamar: «Kom med maten her inn i kammerset, so eg fær eta av handi di!» Og Tamar tok kakorne ho hadde laga, og gjekk inn i kammerset til Amnon, bror sin.
11 When she had brought the food to him, he took hold of her and said to her, “Come, sleep with me, my sister.”
Men då ho bar deim fram åt honom, so han skulde eta, greip han fat i henne og sagde: «Kom og ligg med meg, syster mi!»
12 She answered him, “No, my brother, do not force me, for nothing like this should be done in Israel. Do not do this appalling thing!
Ho svara: «Nei, bror min! Du må ikkje skjemma meg! Sovore må ikkje henda i Israel! Gjer ikkje so stygg ei gjerning!
13 How could I be rid of my shame? What about you? You would be like one of the fools in Israel! Now, please speak to the king, for he would not keep me from you.”
Kvar skulde eg gjera av meg med skammi? Og du sjølv vilde seinare heita eit styggeting i Israel. Tala fyrst med kongen! Han vil ikkje negta deg å få meg.»
14 However Amnon would not listen to her. Since he was stronger than Tamar, he seized her and he slept with her.
Men han vilde ikkje lyda henne. Han valdtok henne, skjemde henne, låg med henne.
15 Then Amnon hated Tamar with extreme hatred. He hated her even more than he had desired her. Amnon said to her, “Get up and go.”
Etterpå fekk Amnon brått ein øgjeleg illvilje til henne. Illviljen han åtte mot henne no, var endå meir ofseleg enn elsken han hadde havt til henne fyrr. «Ris upp og gakk med deg!» sagde Amnon til henne.
16 But she responded to him, “No! Because this great evil of making me leave is even worse than what you did to me!” But Amnon did not listen to her.
Ho sagde til honom: «Ikkje auka skuldi med å gjera so stor ei ugjerning som å jaga meg! det vil vera endå verre enn det andre du hev gjort med meg.» Men han vilde ikkje høyra på henne,
17 Instead, he called his personal servant and said, “Take this woman away from me, and bolt the door after her.”
men ropa på drengen, som tente hjå honom: «Få henne der burt frå meg, ut på gata!» ropa han, «og læs døri etter henne!»
18 Then his servant brought her out and bolted the door after her. Tamar was wearing a very decorated robe because the king's daughters who were virgins dressed that way.
Ho gjekk i sid ermekjole; i sovorne kappor var kongsdøtterne klædde med dei var unge gjentor. Tenaren førde henne ut på gata og læste døri etter henne.
19 Tamar put ashes on her head and tore her robe. She put her hands on her head and walked away, crying aloud as she went.
Då tok Tamar oska og hadde på hovudet, reiv sund ermekjolen ho gjekk i, lagde handi på hovudet og gjekk og øya seg i eino.
20 Absalom her brother said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now keep quiet, my sister. He is your brother. Do not take this thing to heart.” So Tamar remained alone in her brother Absalom's house.
Absalom, bror hennar, spurde henne: «Hev Amnon, bror din, vore hjå deg? Teg deg no, syster! Han er bror din. Bry deg ikkje um dette!» Tamar heldt seg då heime hjå Absalom, bror sin, einsleg og yvergjevi.
21 But when King David heard of all these things, he was very angry.
Då kong David spurde alt dette, loga harmen upp i honom.
22 Absalom said nothing to Amnon, for Absalom hated him for what he had done to her and how he had disgraced his sister Tamar.
Absalom sagde ingen ting med Amnon anten godt eller vondt. Men Absalom hata Amnon, for di han hadde skjemt Tamar, syster hans.
23 It came about after two full years that Absalom had sheep shearers working at Baal Hazor, which is near Ephraim, and Absalom invited all the king's sons to visit there.
Tvo år etter hadde Absalom saueklypping i Ba’al-Hasor attmed Efraim; og Absalom bad alle kongssønerne til gjester.
24 Absalom went to the king and said, “Look now, your servant has sheep shearers. Please, may the king and his servants go with me, your servant.”
Absalom gjekk då inn til kongen og sagde: «Tenaren din held saueklypping. Eg bed at kongen og tenarane hans vil vera med.»
25 The king answered Absalom, “No, my son, all of us should not go because we would be a burden to you.” Absalom begged the king, but he would not go, but he gave him his blessing.
Kongen svara Absalom: «Nei, guten min! Me må ikkje vera med alle; det vert for mykje bry for deg.» Endå han naudbad honom, vilde han ikkje, men bad farvel med honom.
26 Then Absalom said, “If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us.” So the king said to him, “Why should Amnon go with you?”
Då sagde Absalom: «So lat då i alle fall bror Amnon vera med!» Kongen spurde: «Kvifor nett han?»
27 Absalom pressed David, and so he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.
Men då Absalom naudbad honom, let han Amnon og alle kongssønerne vera med.
28 Absalom commanded his servants saying, “Listen closely. When Amnon begins to be affected by the wine, and when I say to you, 'Attack Amnon,' then kill him. Do not be afraid. Have I not commanded you? Be courageous and brave.”
Absalom baud drengjerne: «Sjå etter når Amnon vert lystig av vinen, og eg segjer: «Hogg til Amnon!» So drep honom hugheilt! eg tek ansvaret. Ver hugsterke, og vis de er dugande karar!»
29 So Absalom's servants did to Amnon as he had commanded them. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man mounted his mule and fled.
Absaloms-drengjerne gjorde med Amnon som Absalom hadde bode. Då spratt dei upp alle kongssønerne, steig på muldyri sine og rømde.
30 So it came about, while they were on the road, that the news came to David saying, “Absalom has killed all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.”
Med dei endå var på vegen, fekk David høyra ei tiend um at Absalom hadde drepe alle kongssønerne, so ikkje ein einaste var att av deim.
31 Then the king arose and tore his clothes, and lay on the floor; all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.
Då reiste kongen seg og reiv sund klædi sine og lagde seg på golvet. Og alle tenarane som stod der, reiv og sund klædi sine.
32 Jonadab son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered and said, “Let not my master believe that they have killed all the young men who are the king's sons, for Amnon only is dead. Absalom has planned this from the day that Amnon violated his sister Tamar.
Men Jonadab, son åt Simea, bror åt David, tok til ords og sagde: «Herre, du må ikkje tru at dei hev drepe alle dei unge kongssønerne. Det er berre Amnon som er dåen. Eg hev lese ulukka på Absaloms munn alt frå den dagen då Amnon skjemde ut Tamar, syster hans.
33 So therefore let not my master the king take this report to heart, so as to believe that all the king's sons are dead, for Amnon only is dead.”
Herre konge! no må du ikkje gjera deg so ilt av det, at du trur alle kongssønerne er daude. Nei, det er berre Amnon som er daud.»
34 Absalom fled away. A servant keeping watch raised his eyes and saw many people coming on the road on the hillside west of him.
Men Absalom flydde. Då vaktmannen såg ut, fekk han sjå mykje folk kom vegen ned fjellet attanfor.
35 Then Jonadab said to the king, “Look, the king's sons are coming. It is just as your servant said.”
Då sagde Jonadab til kongen: «Der kjem kongssønerne! Det er som eg sagde.»
36 So it came about when he finished speaking, the king's sons arrived and raised their voices and wept. The king and all his servants also wept bitterly.
Nett då han hadde tala ut, kom kongssønerne, og dei sette i og gret. Ogso kongen og alle tenarane storgret og stridgret.
37 But Absalom fled and went to Talmai son of Ammihud, the king of Geshur. David mourned for his son every day.
Men Absalom flydde og for til Talmai Ammihudsson, kongen i Gesur. Og han syrgde yver son sin heile tidi.
38 So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, where he was for three years.
Absalom flydde og for til Gesur, og heldt seg der i tri år.
39 The mind of King David longed to go out to see Absalom, for he was comforted concerning Amnon and his death.
Men kong David let vera å draga ut mot Absalom; han hadde lote trøysta seg i sorgi yver at Amnon var dåen.
