1 Krønikebok 11
1 Då kom heile Israel i hop hjå David i Hebron og sagde: «Du veit me og du er same folket.
Then all of Israel was gathered to David at Hebron, saying: “We are your bone and your flesh.
2 Alt longe sidan, då Saul endå var konge, var du den som førde Israel. Og til deg hev Herren din Gud, sagt: «Du skal vera ein hyrding for Israel, folket mitt, ja, du skal vera ein hovding yver mitt folk Israel.»»
Also, yesterday and the day before, when Saul still reigned, you were the one who led out and brought in Israel. For the Lord your God said to you: ‘You shall pasture my people Israel, and you shall be the leader over them.’”
3 Då so alle styresmennerne i Israel kom til kongen i Hebron, gjorde David eit samband med deim der i Hebron for Herrens åsyn, og sidan salva dei David til konge yver Israel, etter Herrens ord gjenom Samuel.
Therefore, all those greater by birth of Israel went to the king at Hebron. And David formed a pact with them before the Lord. And they anointed him king over Israel, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of Samuel.
4 Og David for med heile Israel til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; der var jebusitarne, som endå var att i landet.
Then David and all of Israel went to Jerusalem. The same is Jebus, where the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were.
5 Og Jebus-buarne sagde til David: «Du kjem ikkje inn her.» Men David tok like vel Sionsborgi, det er Davidsbyen.
And those who were living in Jebus said to David: “You shall not enter here.” But David seized the stronghold of Zion, which is the city of David.
6 Og David sagde: «Den som fyrst drep ein jebusit, kven det so er, han skal verta hovding og herførar.» Og Joab, son åt Seruja, kom fyrst upp, og vart då hovding.
And he said, “Whoever shall strike the Jebusites first, shall be ruler and commander.” And so Joab, the son of Zeruiah, ascended first, and he was made the leader.
7 Sidan sette David seg til i borgi; difor kalla dei henne Davidsbyen.
Then David lived in the stronghold, and for this reason it was called the City of David.
8 Og han bygde byen rundt umkring, frå Millo og heilt ikring, og Joab bygde upp att det andre av byen.
And he built up the city all around, from Millo even to every side. But Joab built the rest of the city.
9 Og Davids velde auka Davids velde stødt og stendigt, og Herren, allhers drott, var med honom.
And David continued advancing and increasing, and the Lord of hosts was with him.
10 Og dette er dei gjævaste kjemporne hans David, som gav honom kraftig hjelp, i lag med heile Israel, til å verta konge, til å gjeva honom kongedømet hans, etter Herrens ord um Israel.
These are the leaders of the strong men of David, who assisted him, so that he would become king over all of Israel, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke to Israel.
11 Dette er talet på kjemporne hans David: Jasobam, son til hakmoniføraren for kjemporne; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne i ein gong.
And this is the number of the robust of David: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, leader among the thirty. He lifted up his spear over three hundred, who were wounded at one time.
12 Og etter han kom Eleazar, son åt Dodo, ahohiten; han var ein av dei tri kjemporne.
And after him, there was Eleazar, the son of his uncle, an Ahohite, who was among the three powerful ones.
13 Han var med David i Pas-Dammim, då filistarane hadde kome saman til strid, og der var ein åkerlapp fullgrodd med bygg; og folket rømde for filistarane.
He was with David in Pasdammim, when the Philistines were gathered to that place for battle. Now the field of that region was full of barley, but the people had fled from the face of the Philistines.
14 Då stødte dei seg upp midt på åkerleppen og varde honom og hogg ned filistarane, og Herren gav deim soleis ein stor siger.
These men stood in the midst of the field, and they defended it. And when they had struck down the Philistines, the Lord gave a great salvation to his people.
15 Ein gong for tri av dei tretti hovdingarne nedetter berget til David ved Adullams-helleren, medan ein flokk med filistar hadde lægra seg i Refa’imsdalen.
Then three from the thirty leaders descended to the rock where David was, to the cave of Adullam, when the Philistines had made camp in the Valley of the Rephaim.
16 Men David var den gongen i borgi, og ein av filistarvaktpost var då i Betlehem.
Now David was in a stronghold, and a garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem.
17 Då fekk David brått ein sterk hug og sagde: «Å um einkvan vilde gjeva meg vatn å drikka utor brunnen som er attmed porten i Betlehem!»
And then David desired and said, “O if only someone would give me water from the well of Bethlehem, which is at the gate!”
18 Då slo dei tri seg gjenom filistarlægret og auste vatn utor brunnen ved porten i Betlehem, og tok og bar det åt David. Men David vilde ikkje drikka det, men helte det ut for Herren.
Therefore, these three broke through to the midst of the camp of the Philistines, and they drew water from the well of Bethlehem, which was at the gate. And they took it to David, so that he might drink. But he was not willing; and instead, he offered it as a libation to the Lord,
19 For han sagde: «Gud late det aldri koma i mine tankar at eg skulde gjera slikt! Skulde eg drikka blodet av desse mennerne som hev våga livet? For med livs vågnad hev dei bore det hit.» Han vilde ikkje drikka det. Dette hadde dei tri kjemporne gjort.
saying: “Far be it from me, that I would do this in the sight of my God, and that I would drink the blood of these men. For at the peril of their own lives, they brought the water to me.” And for this reason, he was not willing to drink. The three most powerful accomplished these things.
20 Absai, bror hans Joab, var føraren for dei tri; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri.
Also, Abishai, the brother of Joab, was the leader of the three, and he lifted up his spear against three hundred, who were wounded. And he was most renowned among the three,
21 Han var ein gong til so mykje vyrd som nokon annan i dette tritalet, og han var hovdingen deira; men endå nådde han ikkje upp til dei tri fyrste.
and he was famous among the second three and their leader. Yet truly, he did not reach as far as the first three.
22 Benaja, son hans Jojada, som var son åt ein djerv og dådrik mann frå Kabse’el, han drap dei tvo Arielarne i Moab, og det var han som steig ned i brunnen ein snøversdag og slo i hel ei løva der.
Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, from Kabzeel, was a very mature man, who had accomplished many deeds. He struck down the two lions of God from Moab. And he descended and killed a lion in the middle of a pit, in the time of snow.
23 Han felte og den risestore egyptaren som var fem alner høg. Endå egyptaren hadde eit spjot i handi som liktest stor-riven i ein vev, so gjekk han imot honom, og hadde ikkje anna til verja enn staven sin. Og han rykte spjotet ut or handi på egyptaren og drap honom med hans eige spjot.
And he struck down an Egyptian man, whose stature was five cubits, and who had a spear like a weaver’s beam. And yet he descended to him with a staff. And he seized the spear that he was holding in his hand. And he killed him with his own spear.
24 Dette hadde Benaja Jojadason gjort. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri kjemporne.
These things were done by Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who was most renowned among the three robust ones,
25 Ja, han var meir vyrd enn nokon av dei tretti; men upp til dei tri fyrste nådde han ikkje. Og David sette honom til hovding yver livvakti si.
the first among the thirty. Yet truly, he did not reach as far as the three. Then David placed him beside his ear.
