2 Samuel 12
1 And the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.
Gospod je k Davidu poslal Natána. Ta je prišel k njemu in mu rekel: »Bila sta dva moža v enem mestu; eden bogat, drugi pa reven.
2 The rich [man] had very numerous flocks and herds:
Bogat človek je imel silno mnogo tropov in čred,
3 But the poor [man] had nothing save one little ewe-lamb, which he had bought and nourished: and it grew up together with him, and with his children: it fed of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was to him as a daughter.
toda reven človek ni imel ničesar, razen ene majhne ovčje jagnjice, ki jo je kupil in jo preživljal. Ta je zrasla skupaj z njim in z njegovimi otroki; jedla je od njegove lastne hrane, pila iz njegove lastne čaše, ležala v njegovem naročju in mu je bila kakor hči.
4 And there came a traveler to the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the way-faring man that had come to him; but took the poor man's lamb, and dressed it for the man that had come to him.
K bogatašu pa je prišel popotnik in žal mu je bilo vzeti od svojega lastnega tropa in od svoje lastne črede, da pripravi za popotnika, ki je prišel k njemu, temveč je vzel reveževo jagnje in to pripravil za človeka, ki je prišel k njemu.«
5 And David's anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, [As] the LORD liveth, the man that hath done this [thing] shall surely die:
Davidova jeza je bila silno vžgana zoper tega moža in Natánu je rekel: » Kakor Gospod živi, mož, ki je storil to stvar, bo zagotovo umrl
6 And he shall restore the lamb four-fold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.
in četverno bo povrnil jagnje, ker je storil to stvar in ker ni imel usmiljenja.«
7 And Nathan said to David, Thou [art] the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee from the hand of Saul;
Natán je rekel Davidu: »Ti si ta človek. Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Mazilil sem te [za] kralja nad Izraelom in te osvobodil iz Savlove roke.
8 And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if [that had been] too little, I would moreover have given to thee such and such things.
Dal sem ti hišo tvojega gospodarja in v tvoje naročje žene tvojega gospodarja in dal sem ti Izraelovo in Judovo hišo. Če bi bilo to premalo, bi ti dodal še več takšnih in takšnih stvari.
9 Why hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife [to be] thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Zakaj si preziral Gospodovo zapoved, da si storil zlo v njegovem pogledu? Hetejca Urijája si ubil z mečem in njegovo ženo vzel, da postane tvoja žena, njega pa si umoril z mečem Amónovih otrok.
10 Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thy house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.
Zdaj torej meč ne bo nikoli odšel od tvoje hiše, ker si me preziral in si vzel ženo Hetejca Urijája, da bi bila tvoja žena.‹
11 Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thy own house, and I will take thy wives before thy eyes, and give [them] to thy neighbor, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.
Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, zoper tebe bom vzdignil zlo iz tvoje lastne hiše in pred tvojimi očmi bom vzel tvoje žene in jih dal tvojemu bližnjemu in ta bo ležal s tvojimi ženami v pogledu tega sonca.
12 For thou didst [it] secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.
Kajti ti si to delal naskrivaj, toda jaz bom to stvar storil pred vsem Izraelom in pred soncem.‹«
13 And David said to Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said to David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.
David je rekel Natánu: »Grešil sem zoper Gospoda.« Natán je rekel Davidu: » Gospod je tudi odstranil tvoj greh; ne boš umrl.
14 But, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also [that is] born to thee shall surely die.
Vendar ker si s tem dejanjem dal Gospodovim sovražnikom veliko priložnost, da izrekajo bogokletje, bo tudi otrok, ki ti je rojen, zagotovo umrl.«
15 And Nathan departed to his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
In Natán je odšel od njegove hiše. Gospod pa je udaril otroka, ki ga je Urijájeva žena rodila Davidu in ta je bil zelo bolan.
16 David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.
David je zato rotil Boga za otroka in David se je postil in vstopil ter vso noč ležal na zemlji.
17 And the elders of his house arose, [and went] to him, to raise him from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.
Starešine njegove hiše so vstali in odšli k njemu, da ga vzdignejo z zemlje, toda ni hotel niti ni z njimi jedel kruha.
18 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he would not hearken to our voice: how will he then be grieved, if we tell him that the child is dead?
Pripetilo se je na sedmi dan, da je otrok umrl. Davidovi služabniki pa so se mu bali povedati, da je bil otrok mrtev, kajti rekli so: »Glej, medtem ko je bil otrok še živ, smo mu govorili, pa ni hotel poslušati našega glasu. Kako bo torej žalostil samega sebe, če mu povemo, da je otrok mrtev?«
19 But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said to his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.
Toda ko je David videl, da so njegovi služabniki šepetali, je David zaznal, da je bil otrok mrtev. Zato je David rekel svojim služabnikom: »Je otrok mrtev?« Rekli so: »Mrtev je.«
20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed [himself], and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshiped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he ate.
Potem se je David vzdignil z zemlje, se umil, mazilil, zamenjal svojo obleko, prišel v Gospodovo hišo in oboževal. Potem je prišel v svojo lastno hišo; in ko je zahteval, so predenj postavili kruh in je jedel.
21 Then said his servants to him, What thing [is] this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, [while it was] alive; but after the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.
Potem so mu njegovi služabniki rekli: »Kakšna stvar je ta, ki si jo storil? Postil si se in jokal zaradi otroka, medtem ko je bil živ, toda ko je bil otrok mrtev, si vstal in jedel kruh.«
22 And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted, and wept: for I said, Who can tell [whether] God will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
Rekel je: »Medtem ko je bil otrok še živ, sem se postil in jokal, kajti rekel sem: ›Kdo lahko pove, ali mi bo Bog milostljiv, da bo otrok lahko živel?‹
23 But now he is dead, Why should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me.
Toda sedaj je mrtev, zakaj bi se torej postil? Ali ga lahko ponovno privedem nazaj? Jaz bom šel k njemu, toda on se ne bo vrnil k meni.«
24 And David comforted Bath-sheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her: and she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him.
David je potolažil svojo ženo Batšébo in šel noter k njej in ležal z njo in rodila je sina in njegovo ime je imenoval Salomon. In Gospod ga je ljubil.
25 And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD.
In poslal je po roki preroka Natána in ta je njegovo ime imenoval Jedidjá, zaradi Gospoda.
26 And Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Joáb se je boril zoper Rabo Amónovih sinov in zavzel kraljevo mesto.
27 And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, I have fought against Rabbah, and have taken the city of waters.
Joáb je poslal poslance k Davidu in rekel: »Boril sem se zoper Rabo in zavzel mesto vodá.
28 Now therefore collect the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and take it: lest I take the city, and it be called after my name.
Zdaj torej zberi skupaj preostanek ljudstva in se utabôri zoper mesto in ga zavzemi, da ne bi jaz zavzel mesta in bi se ta imenoval po mojem imenu.«
29 And David collected all the people, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
In David je vse ljudstvo zbral skupaj in odšel v Rabo in se bojeval zoper njo ter jo zavzel.
30 And he took their king's crown from off his head, the weight of which [was] a talent of gold with the precious stones: and it was [set] on David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.
Vzel je krono njihovega kralja iz njegove glave, katere teža je bila talent zlata z dragocenimi kamni in ta je bila postavljena na Davidovo glavo. In iz mesta je prinesel plena v velikem obilju.
31 And he brought forth the people that [were] in it, and put [them] under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brick-kiln: and thus he did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. So David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Privedel je ljudstvo, ki je bilo tam in jih postavil pod žage, pod brane iz železa, pod sekire iz železa in jih primoral, da gredo skozi opekarsko peč. Tako je storil vsem mestom Amónovih otrok. Tako se je David in vse ljudstvo vrnilo v Jeruzalem.
