1 Samuel 15
1 Samuel je tudi rekel Savlu: » Gospod me je poslal, da te mazilim, da bi bil kralj nad njegovim ljudstvom, nad Izraelom. Sedaj torej prisluhni glasu Gospodovih besed.
And Samuel said to Saul: “The Lord sent me, so that I would anoint you as king over his people Israel. Now therefore, listen to the voice of the Lord.
2 Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Spomnim se tega, kar je Amálek storil Izraelu, kako je prežal nanj na poti, ko je prišel gor iz Egipta.
‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: I have taken account of all that Amalek has done to Israel, how he stood against him in the way, when he ascended from Egypt.
3 Sedaj pojdi in udari Amáleka in popolnoma uniči vse, kar imajo in ne prizanesi jim, temveč ubij tako moškega kakor žensko, otroka in dojenčka, vola in ovco, kamelo in osla.‹«
Now therefore, go and strike Amalek, and demolish all that is his. You shall not spare him, and you shall not covet anything out of the things that are his. Instead, kill from man even to woman, and little ones as well as infants, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’”
4 Savel je ljudstvo zbral skupaj in jih preštel v Telaímu, dvesto tisoč pešcev in deset tisoč mož iz Juda.
And so, Saul instructed the people, and he numbered them like lambs: two hundred thousand foot soldiers, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 Savel je prišel do mesta Amálečanov in prežal v dolini.
And when Saul had arrived as far as the city of Amalek, he placed ambushes at the torrent.
6 Savel je Kenéjcem rekel: »Pojdite, odidite dol izmed Amálečanov, da vas ne bi uničil z njimi, kajti izkazali ste prijaznost vsem Izraelovim otrokom, ko so prišli gor iz Egipta.« Tako so Kenéjci odšli izmed Amalečanov.
And Saul said to the Kenite: “Go away, withdraw, and descend from Amalek. Otherwise, I will include you with him. For you showed mercy to all the sons of Israel, when they ascended from Egypt.” And so the Kenite withdrew from the midst of Amalek.
7 Savel je udaril Amalečane od Havíle, dokler ne prideš do Šura, ki je nasproti Egiptu.
And Saul struck down Amalek, from Havilah even until you arrive at Shur, which is opposite the region of Egypt.
8 Agága, kralja Amalečanov, je zajel živega in z ostrino meča popolnoma uničil vse ljudstvo.
And he apprehended Agag, the king of Amalek, alive. But all the common people he put to death with the edge of the sword.
9 Toda Savel in ljudstvo je prizaneslo Agágu in najboljšemu od ovc, od volov, od pitancev in jagnjet in vsega, kar je bilo dobro in niso jih želeli popolnoma uničiti. Toda vsako stvar, ki je bila ničvredna in zavrnjena, to so popolnoma uničili.
And Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the flocks of sheep, and of the herds, and the garments, and the rams, and all that was beautiful, and they were not willing to destroy them. Yet truly, whatever was vile or worthless, these they demolished.
10 Potem je prišla Gospodova beseda Samuelu, rekoč:
Then the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying
11 »To me je pokesalo, da sem postavil Savla, da bi bil kralj, kajti obrnil se je nazaj od sledenja meni in ni izvršil mojih zapovedi.« To je užalostilo Samuela in ta je vso noč klical h Gospodu.
“It displeases me that I have appointed Saul as king. For he has forsaken me, and he has not fulfilled the work of my words.” And Samuel was greatly saddened, and he cried out to the Lord, all night long
12 Ko je Samuel zgodaj vstal, da bi zjutraj srečal Savla, je bilo Samuelu povedano, rekoč: »Savel je prišel v Karmel in glej, postavil si je kraj in potem je šel naokrog, šel naprej in odšel dol do Gilgála.«
And when Samuel had risen while it was still dark, so that he might go to Saul in the morning, it was reported to Samuel that Saul had arrived at Carmel, and that he had erected for himself a triumphant arch. And, while returning, he had continued on and descended to Gilgal. Therefore, Samuel went to Saul. And Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord, from the best of the spoils, which he had brought from Amalek.
13 Samuel je prišel k Savlu in Savel mu je rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi od Gospoda. Izpolnil sem Gospodovo zapoved.«
And when Samuel had gone to Saul, Saul said to him: “You are the blessed of the Lord. I have fulfilled the word of the Lord.”
14 Samuel pa je rekel: »Kaj potem pomeni to blejanje ovc v mojih ušesih in mukanje volov, ki ga slišim?«
And Samuel said, “Then what is this voice of the flocks, which resounds in my ears, and of the herds, which I am hearing?”
15 Savel je rekel: »Privedli so jih od Amalečanov, kajti ljudstvo je prizaneslo najboljšim izmed ovc in izmed volov, da žrtvujejo Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu, preostalo pa smo popolnoma uničili.«
And Saul said: “They have brought these from Amalek. For the people spared the best of the sheep and of the herds, so that they might be immolated to the Lord your God. Yet truly, the remainder we have slain.”
16 Potem je Samuel rekel Savlu: »Ostani in povedal ti bom kaj mi je to noč povedal Gospod.« In rekel mu je: »Povej.«
Then Samuel said to Saul, “Permit me, and I will reveal to you what the Lord has said to me this night.” And he said to him, “Speak.”
17 Samuel je rekel: »Ko si bil majhen v svojem lastnem pogledu, ali nisi bil narejen za poglavarja Izraelovim rodovom in te je Gospod mazilil za kralja nad Izraelom?
And Samuel said: “Was it not when you were little in your own eyes that you were made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord anointed you as king over Israel.
18 Gospod te je poslal na pot in rekel: ›Pojdi in popolnoma uniči grešnike Amalečane in se bori proti njim, dokler ne bodo použiti.‹
And the Lord sent you on the way, and he said: ‘Go and put to death the sinners of Amalek. And you shall fight against them, even unto utter annihilation.’
19 Zakaj potem nisi ubogal Gospodovega glasu, temveč si se vrgel na plen in storil zlo v Gospodovih očeh?«
Why then, did you not listen to the voice of the Lord? Instead, you turned to the spoils, and you did evil in the eyes of the Lord.”
20 Savel je rekel Samuelu: »Da, ubogal sem Gospodov glas in sem šel na pot, na katero me je poslal Gospod in privedel sem Agága, kralja Amalečanov in popolnoma sem uničil Amálečane.
And Saul said to Samuel: “On the contrary, I did listen to the voice of the Lord, and I walked in the way along which the Lord sent me, and I led back Agag, the king of Amalek, and I put to death Amalek.
21 Toda ljudstvo je vzelo od plena, ovce in vole, glavne izmed stvari, ki naj bi bile popolnoma uničene, da žrtvujejo Gospodu, tvojemu Bogu v Gilgálu.«
But the people took some of the spoils, sheep and oxen, as the first-fruits of those things that were slain, to immolate to the Lord their God at Gilgal.”
22 Samuel je rekel: »Ali ima Gospod tako veliko zadovoljstvo v žgalnih daritvah in klavnih daritvah, kot v ubogljivosti Gospodovemu glasu? Glej, ubogati je bolje kot klavna daritev in poslušati [bolje] kot tolšča ovnov.
And Samuel said: “Does the Lord want holocausts and victims, and not instead that the voice of the Lord should be obeyed? For obedience is better than sacrifice. And to heed is greater than to offer the fat of rams.
23 Kajti upor je kakor greh čaranja in trmoglavost je kakor krivičnost in malikovanje. Ker si zavrnil Gospodovo besedo, je tudi on zavrnil tebe, da bi bil kralj.«
Therefore, it is like the sin of paganism to rebel. And it is like the crime of idolatry to refuse to obey. For this reason, therefore, because you have rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord has also rejected you from being king.”
24 Savel je rekel Samuelu: »Grešil sem, kajti prekršil sem Gospodovo zapoved in tvoje besede, ker sem se bal ljudstva in ubogal njihov glas.
And Saul said to Samuel: “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the word of the Lord, and your words, by fearing the people and obeying their voice.
25 Zdaj torej, prosim te, odpusti moj greh in se ponovno obrni z menoj, da lahko obožujem Gospoda.«
But now, I beg you, to bear my sin, and to return with me, so that I may adore the Lord.”
26 Samuel pa je rekel Savlu: »Ne bom se vrnil s teboj, kajti zavrnil si Gospodovo besedo in Gospod je zavrnil tebe, da bi bil kralj nad Izraelom.«
And Samuel said to Saul: “I will not return with you. For you have rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you from being king over Israel.”
27 Medtem ko se je Samuel obrnil naokoli, da gre proč, je zgrabil krajec njegovega plašča in ga odtrgal.
And Samuel turned away, so that he might depart. But Saul took hold of the edge of his cloak, and it tore.
28 Samuel pa mu je rekel: » Gospod je ta dan odtrgal Izraelovo kraljestvo od tebe in ga izročil tvojemu bližnjemu, ki je boljši kakor ti.
And Samuel said to him: “The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel away from you this day. And he has delivered it to your neighbor, who is better than you are.
29 Tudi Močni Izraelov ne bo lagal niti se kesal, kajti on ni človek, da bi se kesal.«
Moreover, the One who triumphs within Israel will not spare, and he will not be moved to repentance. For he is not a man, that he should repent.”
30 Potem je rekel: »Grešil sem. Vendar me sedaj počasti, prosim te, pred starešinami mojega ljudstva in pred Izraelom in se ponovno obrni z menoj, da bom lahko oboževal Gospoda, tvojega Boga.«
Then he said: “I have sinned. But now, honor me before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, so that I may adore the Lord your God.”
31 Tako se je Samuel ponovno obrnil za Savlom, in Savel je oboževal Gospoda.
Therefore, Samuel turned again after Saul. And Saul adored the Lord.
32 Potem je Samuel rekel: »Privedite sèm k meni Agága, kralja Amalečanov.« Agág je prefinjeno prišel k njemu. In Agág je rekel: »Zagotovo je grenkoba smrti minila.«
And Samuel said, “Bring near to me Agag, the king of Amalek.” And Agag, very fat and trembling, was presented to him. And Agag said, “Does bitter death separate in this manner?”
33 Samuel je rekel: »Kakor je tvoj meč naredil ženske brez otrok, tako bo tvoja mati brez otroka med ženskami.« In Samuel je Agága razsekal na koščke pred Gospodom v Gilgálu.
And Samuel said, “Just as your sword caused women to be without their children, so will your mother be without her children among women.” And Samuel cut him into pieces, before the Lord at Gilgal.
34 Potem je Samuel odšel v Ramo, Savel pa je odšel gor, do svoje hiše, v Savlovo Gíbeo.
Then Samuel went away to Ramah. But Saul ascended to his house at Gibeah.
35 Samuel ni več prišel, da bi videl Savla, do dneva svoje smrti, vendar je Samuel žaloval za Savlom. In Gospod se je pokesal, da je Savla postavil [za] kralja nad Izraelom.
And Samuel did not see Saul any more, until the day of his death. Yet truly, Samuel mourned for Saul, because the Lord regretted that he had appointed him as king over Israel.
