1 Samuel 10

1 Potem je Samuel vzel stekleničko olja in jo izlil na njegovo glavo ter ga poljubil in rekel: » Ali ni to zato, ker te je Gospod mazilil, da bi bil poveljnik nad njegovo dediščino?

Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD hath anointed thee to be captain over his inheritance?

2 Ko danes odideš od mene, potem boš našel dva moža ob Rahelinem mavzoleju, na meji Benjamina, ob Celcáhu; in rekla ti bosta: ›Oslice, ki si jih šel iskat, so najdene in glej, tvoj oče je zapustil skrb nad oslicami in se žalosti zaradi tebe, rekoč: ›Kaj naj storim za svojega sina?‹‹

When thou hast departed from me to day, then thou shalt find two men by Rachel’s sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to thee, The donkeys which thou wentest to seek are found: and, lo, thy father hath stopped caring for the donkeys, and sorroweth for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?

3 Potem boš šel naprej od tam in prišel boš do ravnine Tabor in tam boš srečal tri može, ki gredo gor k Bogu v Betel. Eden bo nosil tri kozličke, drugi bo nosil tri hlebe kruha in drugi bo nosil vinski meh.

Then shalt thou go on forward from there, and thou shalt come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet thee three men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:

4 Pozdravili te bodo in ti dali dva hleba kruha, ki ju boš sprejel iz njihovih rok.

And they will greet thee, and give thee two loaves of bread; which thou shalt receive from their hands.

5 Potem boš prišel do Božjega hriba, kjer je garnizija Filistejcev in zgodilo se bo, ko prideš tja do mesta, da boš srečal skupino prerokov prihajati dol iz visokega kraja, s plunko, bobničem, piščaljo in harfo pred njimi, in oni bodo prerokovali.

After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when thou hast come there to the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a tabret, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy:

6 Gospodov Duh bo prišel nadte in prerokoval boš z njimi in spremenjen boš v drugega človeka.

And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.

7 Naj bo, ko pridejo k tebi ta znamenja, da storiš, kakor se ti ponuja priložnost, kajti Bog je s teboj.

And let it be, when these signs have come to thee, that thou do as occasion shall serve thee; for God is with thee.

8 Šel boš dol pred menoj v Gilgál, in glej, prišel bom dol k tebi, da darujem žgalne daritve in da žrtvujem žrtvovanje mirovnih daritev. Sedem dni boš čakal, dokler ne pridem k tebi in ti pokažem, kaj boš storil.«

And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down to thee, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come to thee, and show thee what thou shalt do.

9 Bilo je tako, da ko je obrnil hrbet, da bi odšel od Samuela, mu je Bog dal drugo srce in vsa ta znamenja so se zgodila tisti dan.

And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.

10 Ko so prišli tja do hriba, glej, ga je srečala skupina prerokov in Božji Duh je prišel nadenj in prerokoval je med njimi.

And when they came there to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.

11 Pripetilo se je, ko so vsi, ki so ga poznali od prej, videli, da je, glej, prerokoval med preroki, potem je ljudstvo reklo drug drugemu: »Kaj je to, kar je prišlo h Kiševemu sinu? Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«

And it came to pass, when all that knew him in times past saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that hath come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?

12 Nekdo iz istega kraja je odgovoril in rekel: »Toda kdo je njihov oče?« Zato je postal pregovor: »Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«

And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?

13 Ko je nehal prerokovati, je prišel na visok kraj.

And when he had finished prophesying, he came to the high place.

14 Savlov stric je rekel njemu in njegovemu služabniku: »Kam sta odšla?« Rekel je: »Iskat oslice. Ko pa sva videla, da jih ni bilo nikjer, sva šla k Samuelu.«

And Saul’s uncle said to him and to his servant, Where went ye? And he said, To seek the donkeys: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.

15 Savlov stric je rekel: »Povej mi, prosim te, kaj ti je Samuel rekel.«

And Saul’s uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.

16 Savel je svojemu stricu rekel: »Pojasnil nama je, da so bile oslice najdene.« Toda o zadevi kraljestva, o kateri je govoril Samuel, mu ni povedal.

And Saul said to his uncle, He told us plainly that the donkeys were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel spoke, he told him not.

17 Samuel je skupaj sklical ljudstvo h Gospodu v Micpo

And Samuel called the people together to the LORD to Mizpeh;

18 in Izraelovim otrokom rekel: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Izraela sem privedel iz Egipta in vas osvobodil iz roke Egipčanov in iz roke vseh kraljestev in od teh, ki so vas zatirali, ‹

And said to the children of Israel, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:

19 vi pa ste ta dan zavrnili svojega Boga, ki vas je sam rešil vseh vaših nasprotnikov in vaših stisk in ste mu rekli: › Ne, temveč nad nami postavi kralja.‹ Sedaj se torej predstavite pred Gospodom po vaših rodovih in po vaših tisočih.«

And ye have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and ye have said to him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.

20 Ko je Samuel vsem Izraelovim rodovom velel, da se približajo, je bil izbran Benjaminov rod.

And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.

21 Ko je Benjaminovemu rodu velel, da pride bliže po svojih družinah, je bila izbrana Matríjeva družina in izbran je bil Kišev sin Savel. Ko pa so ga iskali, ga niso mogli najti.

When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.

22 Zato so naprej povpraševali od Gospoda, ali bi mož še moral priti tja. Gospod je odgovoril: »Glejte, skril se je med stvari.«

Therefore they enquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come there. And the LORD answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.

23 Stekli so in ga vzeli od tam. Ko je stal med ljudstvom, je bil višji kakor katerikoli izmed ljudstva, od njegovih ramen navzgor.

And they ran and brought him from there: and when he stood among the people, he was taller than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.

24 Samuel je vsemu ljudstvu rekel: »Vidite koga je Gospod izbral, da tu ni podobnega njemu izmed vsega ljudstva?« Vse ljudstvo je zavpilo in reklo: »Živel kralj.«

And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom the LORD hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.

25 Potem je Samuel ljudstvu povedal o načinu kraljestva in to zapisal v knjigo ter jo položil pred Gospoda. In Samuel je vse ljudstvo poslal proč, vsakega k svoji hiši.

Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.

26 Tudi Savel je odšel domov v Gíbeo in z njim je šla četa mož, čigar src se je Bog dotaknil.

And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.

27 Toda Beliálovi otroci so rekli: »Kako nas bo ta človek rešil?« Prezirali so ga in mu niso prinesli daril. Toda on je ohranil svoj mir.

But the worthless men said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought him no presents. But he held his peace.
