< 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:

Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse saith, and the man who was raised on high saith, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel:

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

The spirit of the LORD spake by 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;

The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me: One that ruleth over men righteously, that ruleth in the fear of God,

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

[He shall be] as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; [when] the tender grass [springeth] out of the earth, through clear shining after rain.

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.

Verily my house is not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for it is all my salvation, and all [my] desire, although he maketh it not to grow.

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

But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away, for they cannot be taken with 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 toucheth them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place.

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 be the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against 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 Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, 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 were gone away:

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 arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.

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 Agce a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people 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 stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew 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 three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines were 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 hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem.

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 give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem 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 brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink thereof, but 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, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: [shall I drink] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore 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 Zeruiah, was chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, 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.

Was he not most honourable of the three? therefore he was made their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the [first] three.

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 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he slew the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:

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 goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked 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 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and 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 honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three. And David set him over his guard.

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

Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem;

25 Samma frå Harod, Elika frå Harod,

Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite;

26 Heles, paltiten, Ira Ikkesson frå Tekoa,

Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite;

27 Abiezer frå Anatot, husatiten Mebunnai,

Abiezer the Anathothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite;
