< 2 Samuel 15 >

1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Pripetilo se je po tem, da si je Absalom pripravil vozove, konje in petdeset mož, da so tekli pred njim.
2 And Absalom rose early, and stood beside the way of the gate: and it was [so], that when any man that had a controversy came to the king for judgment, then Absalom called to him, and said, Of what city [art] thou? And he said, Thy servant [is] one of the tribes of Israel.
Absalom je vstajal zgodaj in stal poleg poti velikih vrat in to je bilo tako, da ko je katerikoli človek imel polemiko, je prišel h kralju za sodbo, potem mu je Absalom zaklical in rekel: »Iz katerega mesta si?« In ta je rekel: »Tvoj služabnik je iz enega izmed Izraelovih rodov.«
3 And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters [are] good and right; but [there is] no man [deputed] by the king to hear thee.
Absalom mu je rekel: »Poglej, tvoje zadeve so dobre in pravilne; toda tam ni nobenega človeka, poslanega od kralja, da te sliši.«
4 Absalom said moreover, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!
Poleg tega je Absalom rekel: »Oh da bi mene postavili za sodnika v deželi, da bi vsak človek, ki ima kakršnokoli tožbo ali zadevo, lahko prišel k meni in bi mu jaz storil pravico!«
5 And it was [so], that when any man came nigh [to him] to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him.
In to je bilo tako, da ko je katerikoli moški prišel blizu k njemu, da se mu globoko prikloni, je svojo roko iztegnil naprej, ga prijel in ga poljubil.
6 And in this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment: so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Na ta način je Absalom počel vsemu Izraelu, ki so hodili h kralju po sodbo. Tako je Absalom kradel srca Izraelovih mož.
7 And it came to pass after forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
Pripetilo se je po štiridesetih letih, da je Absalom rekel kralju: »Prosim te, naj grem in izpolnim svojo zaobljubo, ki sem jo zaobljubil Gospodu v Hebrónu.
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Syria, saying, If the LORD shall bring me again indeed to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.
Kajti tvoj služabnik se je zaobljubil, medtem ko je prebival pri Gešurju v Siriji, rekoč: ›Če me bo Gospod zares ponovno privedel v Jeruzalem, potem bom služil Gospodu.‹«
9 And the king said to him, Go in peace, So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Kralj mu je rekel: »Pojdi v miru.« Tako je vstal in odšel v Hebrón.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, As soon as ye hear the sound of the trumpet, then ye shall say, Absalom reigneth in Hebron.
Toda Absalom je poslal oglednike po vseh Izraelovih rodovih, rekoč: »Takoj ko zaslišite zvok šofarja, potem boste rekli: ›Absalom kraljuje v Hebrónu.‹«
11 And with Absalom went two hundred men from Jerusalem, [that were] called; and they went in their simplicity, and they knew not any thing.
Z Absalomom je iz Jeruzalema odšlo dvesto mož, ki so bili poklicani. Odšli pa so v svoji toposti in niso vedeli nobene stvari.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city, [even] from Giloh, while he offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Absalom je poslal po Gilčana Ahitófela, Davidovega svetovalca, iz njegovega mesta, torej iz Gila, medtem ko je daroval klavne daritve. In zarota je bila močna, kajti ljudstvo je nenehno naraščalo z Absalomom.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
K Davidu je prišel poslanec, rekoč: »Srca Izraelovih mož sledijo Absalomu.«
14 And David said to all his servants that [were] with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for we shall not [else] escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he should overtake us suddenly, and bring evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.
David je rekel vsem svojim služabnikom, ki so bili z njim pri Jeruzalemu: »Vstanimo in pobegnimo, kajti sicer ne bomo pobegnili pred Absalomom. Pohitimo, da nas ne bi nenadoma dohitel in nad nas privedel zla in mesto udaril z ostrino meča.«
15 And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants [are ready to do] whatever my lord the king shall appoint.
Kraljevi služabniki so rekli kralju: »Glej, tvoji služabniki so pripravljeni storiti, karkoli bo moj gospod kralj določil.«
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women [who were] concubines to keep the house.
Kralj je odšel naprej in vsa njegova družina za njim. Kralj pa je pustil deset žensk, ki so bile priležnice, da varujejo hišo.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and tarried in a place that was far off.
Kralj je odšel naprej in vse ljudstvo za njim in se mudil na kraju, ki je bil daleč proč.
18 And all his servants passed on by his side; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Vsi njegovi služabniki so šli poleg njega in vsi Keretéjci in vsi Péletovci in vsi Gitéjci, šeststo mož, ki so prišli za njim iz Gata, so prečkali pred kraljem.
19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite, Why goest thou also with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king; for thou [art] a stranger, and also an exile.
Potem je kralj rekel Gitéjcu Itáju: »Čemu greš tudi ti z nami? Vrni se na svoj kraj in prebivaj s kraljem, kajti tujec si in tudi izgnanec.
20 Whereas thou camest [but] yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us? seeing I go whither I may; return thou, and take back thy brethren: mercy and truth [be] with thee.
Glede na to, da si prišel šele včeraj, ali naj te ta dan pripravim hoditi z nami gor in dol? Ker grem, kamor lahko, se vrni in svoje brate vzemi nazaj. Usmiljenje in resnica naj bosta s teboj.«
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said, [As] the LORD liveth, and [as] my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also will thy servant be.
Itáj je odgovoril kralju in rekel: » Kakor živi Gospod in kakor živi moj gospod kralj, zagotovo, na kateremkoli kraju bo moj gospod kralj, bodisi v smrti ali življenju, celo tam bo tudi tvoj služabnik.«
22 And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that [were] with him.
David je rekel Itáju: »Pojdi in prečkaj.« Gitéjec Itáj je šel čez in vsi njegovi možje in vsi malčki, ki so bili z njim.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over, towards the way of the wilderness.
In vsa dežela je jokala z močnim glasom in vse ljudstvo je šlo čez. Tudi sam kralj je šel čez potok Kidron in vse ljudstvo je šlo čez, proti poti divjine.
24 And lo, Zadok also, and all the Levites [were] with him bearing the ark of the covenant of God: and they set down the ark of God; and Abiathar went up, until all the people had done passing out of the city.
Glej, tudi Cadók in vsi Lévijevci so bili z njim, nesoč skrinjo Božje zaveze in odložili so Božjo skrinjo. Abjatár je odšel gor, dokler ni vse ljudstvo šlo iz mesta.
25 And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me again, and show me [both] it, and his habitation:
Kralj je Cadóku rekel: »Božjo skrinjo odnesite nazaj v mesto. Če bom našel naklonjenost v Gospodovih očeh, me bo ponovno privedel in mi pokazal oboje, to in njeno prebivališče,
26 But if he shall thus say, I have no delight in thee; behold, [here am] I, let him do to me as seemeth good to him.
toda če reče tako: ›Nimam veselja v tebi; ‹ glej, tukaj sem, naj mi stori, kakor se mu zdi dobro.«
27 The king said also to Zadok the priest, [Art not] thou a seer? return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Kralj je tudi rekel duhovniku Cadóku: » Mar nisi ti videc? V miru se vrni v mesto in tvoja dva sinova s teboj, tvoj sin Ahimáac in Jonatan, Abjatárjev sin.
28 See, I will tarry in the plain of the wilderness, until word shall come from you to certify me.
Glejte, mudil se bom na ravnini divjine, dokler ne bo prišla od vas beseda, da me potrdite.«
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem: and they tarried there.
Torej Cadók in Abjatár sta Božjo skrinjo ponovno odnesla v Jeruzalem in ostala sta tam.
30 And David went up by the ascent of [mount] Olivet, and wept as he went, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot: and all the people that [were] with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went.
David je odšel gor po pobočju Oljske gore in jokal, ko se je vzpenjal in svojo glavo je imel pokrito in hodil je bos. Vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, je vsak pokril svojo glavo in hodili so gor in jokali, medtem ko so hodili gor.
31 And [one] told David, saying, Ahithophel [is] among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.
In nekdo je povedal Davidu, rekoč: »Ahitófel je z Absalomom med zarotniki.« David je rekel: »Oh Gospod, prosim te, obrni Ahitófelov nasvet v norost.«
32 And it came to pass, that [when] David had come to the top [of the mount], where he worshiped God, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head;
Pripetilo se je, da ko je David prišel na vrh gore, kjer je oboževal Boga, glej, je prišel Arkéjec Hušáj, da ga sreča, s svojim pretrganim plaščem in zemljo na svoji glavi,
33 To whom David said, If thou shalt pass on with me, then thou wilt be a burden to me:
ki mu je David rekel: »Če greš z menoj naprej, potem mi boš v breme,
34 But if thou shalt return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; [as] I [have been] thy father's servant hitherto, so [will] I now also [be] thy servant: then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel.
toda če se vrneš k mestu in rečeš Absalomu: ›Jaz bom tvoj služabnik, oh kralj, kakor sem bil doslej služabnik tvojega očeta, tako bom sedaj tudi tvoj služabnik, ‹ potem boš lahko zame premagal Ahitófelov nasvet.
35 And [hast thou] not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, [that] whatever thing thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell [it] to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
In ali nisi tam z duhovnikoma Cadókom in Abjatárjem? Zato naj bo, da kakršnokoli stvar boš slišal iz kraljeve hiše, boš to povedal duhovnikoma Cadóku in Abjatárju.
36 Behold, [they have] there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's [son], and Jonathan Abiathar's [son]; and by them ye shall send to me every thing that ye can hear.
Glej, onadva imata tam s seboj svoja dva sinova, Cadókovega sina Ahimáaca in Abjatárjevega sina Jonatana. Po njima boste poslali k meni vsako stvar, ki jo lahko slišite.«
37 So Hushai David's friend came into the city, and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
Tako je Davidov prijatelj Hušáj prišel v mesto in Absalom je prišel v Jeruzalem.
