< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 Dette er Davids siste ord: «So lyder ordi frå David, Isaisonen, so lyder ordi frå mannen som vart upphøgd, han som Jakobs Gud hev salva, Israels ljuvlege songmeister:

And these are the last words of David. Thus saith David the son of Jesse, and thus saith the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet singer of Israel:

2 Herrens Ande hev tala i meg, ordi hans er på tunga mi.

The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me, and his word was upon my tongue.

3 Israels Gud hev tala so, Israels berg hev sagt til meg: Den som råder og gjer rett millom menn, den som rikjer i otte for Gud;

[Thus] said the God of Israel, concerning me spoke the Rock of Israel, That [I should be] ruler over men, be righteous, ruling in the fear of God;

4 han likjest på dagsprett når soli renn, ein morgon forutan skyer, når graset grønkast i sol etter regn.

And as in the light of morning the sun riseth, in a morning without clouds, with more than the brightness [reflected] by rain on the herbs that spring from the earth.

5 Er det’kje so med mitt hus hjå Gud? Han gjorde ævelegt samband med meg, feste og trygde meg heilt og fullt. Ja, alt som vert meg til frelsa og gleda, det let han visseleg veksa åt meg.

Truly is not so my house with God? since he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, firm in all, and sure? yea, will he not cause to grow all my salvation, and all my desire?

6 Men uvyrdor likjest alle på utkasta tornar, ein vil ikkje taka i deim med hender.

But the godless are all of them as waving thorns, which cannot be taken in the hand;

7 Lyt ein røra deim væpnar ein seg med jarn og med spjotskaft; so set ein eld på deim og brenner deim på flekken.»

But the man that will touch them must protect his hand with iron and the staff of a spear: and they will be utterly burnt with fire in the dwelling.

8 Dette er namni på dei djervaste stridsmennerne åt David: Joseb-Bassebet, tahkmoniten, den fremste av kjemporne, han som svinga spjotet yver åtte hundrad falne på ein gong.

These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Yosheb-bashebeth, the Thachkemonite, the chief among the captains, —the same as 'Adino the 'Eznite, —because of eight hundred slain at one time.

9 Næst honom kom Eleazar, son åt Dodi, son åt ein ahohit. Han var ein av dei tri stridsmennerne som var med David, då filistarane samla seg til strid og svivyrde deim då Israels-mennerne drog seg attende.

And after him was El'azar the son of Dodo, the son of Achochi, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel had withdrawn themselves;

10 Men han heldt stand og hogg laust på filistarane, til dess handi hans trøytna, so ho trena i hop kring sverdet. Og Herren gav ein stor siger den dagen. Etterpå hadde folket berre å snu um og fylgja med honom og plundra.

He then arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand did cleave unto the sword: and the Lord wrought a great victory on that day; and the people returned after him only to strip [the slain].

11 Næst honom kom Samma, son åt Age, ein hararit. Ein gong stemnde filistarane i hop og vart til ein heil flokk. Der var ein åkerteig full av linsor. Folket rømde for filistarane.

And after him was Shammah the son of Age the Hararite. The Philistines were gathered together into a troop, and there was a piece of ground full of lentiles; and the people had fled from the Philistines;

12 Då tok han post midt på åkerteigen og verna honom, og slo filistarane. Herren gav ein stor siger.

But he placed himself in the midst of the ground, and delivered it, and smote the Philistines: and the Lord wrought a great victory.

13 Ein gong drog tri av dei tretti fremste kararne ned, og kom i skurdonni til David i Adullams-helleren, medan ein filistarflokk låg i læger i Refa’imsdalen.

And these three, the chiefs of the thirty, went down, and came to David at harvest-time unto the cave of 'Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

14 David var då i fjellborgi, samstundes med at ein filistarpost låg i Betlehem.

And David was then in the strong-hold, and an outpost of the Philistines was then in Beth-lechem.

15 David fekk slik hug og sagde: «Gjev einkvan vilde gjeva meg vatn å drikka frå brunnen ved byporten i Betlehem!»

And David longed, and said, Oh that one would bring me water to drink out of the well at Beth-lechem, which is by the gate!

16 Då braut dei tri stridsmennerne seg gjenom filistarlægret, auste vatn or brunnen ved byporten i Betlehem og bar det til David. Men han vilde ikkje drikka det, men helte det ut for Herren.

And the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines; and drew water out of the well of Beth-lechem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David; but he would not drink thereof, and poured it out unto the Lord.

17 For han sagde: «Aldri i verdi, Herre, vil eg gjera dette! Skulde eg drikka blodet av dei mennerne som gjekk av stad og våga livet sitt?» Og han vilde ikkje drikka det. - Sovore hadde dei tri stridsmennerne gjort.

And he said, Far be it from me, O Lord, that I should do this: [is not this] the blood of the men that went at the risk of their life? and thus he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men.

18 Abisai, bror åt Joab Serujason, var den fremste av tri andre. Ein gong svinga han spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad falne. Han hadde eit stort namn millom dei tri;

And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruyah, was the chief of these three; and he lifted up his spear against three hundred slain, and had a name among the three.

19 han var visseleg meir vyrd enn nokon annan i dette trimannslaget; og han var hovding yver dei hine. Men upp til dei tri fyrste nådde han ikkje.

Although he was the most honored of the three, wherefore he became their captain: he nevertheless attained not unto the three [in prowess].

20 Benaja Jojadason var son til ein djerv og dådrik mann frå Kabse’el. Han slo dei tvo Ariel i Moab. Det var han som steig ned ein snøversdag og drap løva i brunnen.

And Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', the son of a valiant man, great in many acts of Kabzeel; he it was that smote the two lion-like heroes of Moab; he also went down and slew a lion in the midst of a pit on a day when it snowed;

21 Han drap og den egyptaren som var so sjåleg. Endå egyptaren hadde spjot i hand, gjekk han på honom berre med ein stav. Han reiv spjotet ut or handi på egyptaren og drap honom med hans eige spjot.

And he slew an Egyptian, a man of good appearance; and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and he snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.

22 Sovore hadde Benaja Jojadason gjort. Han hadde eit stort namn millom dei tri stridsmennerne.

These things did Benayahu the son of Yehoyada', and he had a name among the three mighty men.

23 Han var meir vyrd enn nokon av dei tretti. Men upp til dei tri nådde han ikkje. David sette honom inn i livvakti si.

He was more honored than the thirty; but he attained not to these three. And David appointed him in his private council.

24 Til dei tretti høyrde: Asael, bror åt Joab, Elhanan Dodoson frå Betlehem,

'Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elchanan the son of Dodo of Beth-lechem,

25 Samma frå Harod, Elika frå Harod,

Shammah the Charodite, Elika the Charodite,

26 Heles, paltiten, Ira Ikkesson frå Tekoa,

Chelez the Paltite, 'Ira the son of 'Ikkesh the Teko'ite,

27 Abiezer frå Anatot, husatiten Mebunnai,

Abi'ezer the 'Anethothite, Mebunnai the Chushathite,
