< 1 Samuel 19 >
1 Savel je spregovoril svojemu sinu Jonatanu in vsem svojim služabnikom, da naj ubijejo Davida.
And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son, and to all his servants, that he would kill David. But Jonathan the son of Saul delighted greatly in David.
2 Toda Savlov sin Jonatan se je zelo veselil v Davidu, in Jonatan je povedal Davidu, rekoč: »Moj oče Savel si prizadeva, da te ubije. Sedaj torej, prosim te, pazi nase do jutra in ostani na skritem mestu in se skrij,
And Jonathan told David, saying, Saul my father seeketh to kill thee; now therefore, I pray thee, take heed to thyself in the morning, and abide in a secret place, and hide thyself:
3 jaz pa bom šel ven in stal poleg svojega očeta na polju, kjer si ti in se bom s svojim očetom posvetoval o tebi in kar vidim, to ti bom povedal.«
And I will go out and stand by the side of my father in the field where thou art, and I myself will speak of thee to my father; and I will see what it is, and I will tell thee.
4 Jonatan je svojemu očetu Savlu govoril dobro o Davidu in mu rekel: »Naj kralj ne greši zoper svojega služabnika, zoper Davida, ker on ni grešil zoper tebe in ker so bila njegova dela do tebe zelo dobra,
And Jonathan spoke favorably of David unto Saul his father, and said unto him, Let not the king sin against his servant, against David; since he hath not sinned against thee, and because his deeds are very good for thee;
5 kajti ali ni svojega življenja položil v svojo roko in usmrtil Filistejca in je Gospod izvršil veliko rešitev duš za ves Izrael. Ti si to videl in si se veselil. Zakaj potem hočeš grešiti zoper nedolžno kri, da bi Davida ubil brez razloga?«
And he did put his life in his hand, and he slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought a great salvation for all Israel; thou sawest it, and wast rejoiced: wherefore then wilt thou commit sin on innocent blood, by slaying David without a cause?
6 Savel je prisluhnil Jonatanovemu glasu in Savel je prisegel: » Kakor živi Gospod, on ne bo umorjen.«
And Saul hearkened unto the voice of Jonathan: and Saul swore, As the Lord liveth, he shall not be put to death.
7 Jonatan je poklical Davida in Jonatan mu je pokazal vse te stvari. Jonatan je Davida privedel k Savlu in bil je v njegovi prisotnosti, kakor v preteklih časih.
And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these words. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence, as in times past.
8 Tam je bila ponovno vojna in David je odšel ven in se boril s Filistejci in jih usmrtil z velikim pokolom in oni so zbežali od njega.
And the war occurred again: and David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and smote them with a great defeat, and they fled from before him.
9 Zli duh od Gospoda je bil nad Savlom, ko je sedel v svoji hiši, s svojim kopjem v svoji roki in David je igral s svojo roko.
And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing with his hand.
10 Savel si je prizadeval, da s kopjem udari Davida, celo k zidu, toda ta se je izmuznil iz Savlove prisotnosti in kopje je zapičil v zid, David pa je zbežal in tisto noč pobegnil.
And Saul sought to strike David through with the spear even to the wall; but he slipped away from before Saul, who struck the spear into the wall: and David fled, and escaped that night.
11 Savel je tudi k Davidovi hiši poslal poslance, da ga stražijo in da ga zjutraj ubijejo. In Davidova žena Mihála mu je povedala, rekoč: »Če nocoj ne rešiš svojega življenja, boš jutri umorjen.«
But Saul sent messengers unto David's house, to watch him, and to slay him in the morning; and Michal his wife told it to David, saying, If thou save not thy life this night, tomorrow thou wilt be put to death.
12 Tako je Mihála Davida spustila navzdol skozi okno in odšel je, bežal ter pobegnil.
And Michal let David down through the window: and he went, and fled, and escaped.
13 Mihála pa je vzela kip in ga položila na posteljo in za njegov vzglavnik položila blazino iz kozje dlake in to pokrila z obleko.
And Michal took an image, and put it in the bed, and a pillow of goats' hair she put for its head to rest on, and covered it with a cloth.
14 Ko je Savel poslal poslance, da primejo Davida, je rekla: »Bolan je.«
And when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, He is sick.
15 Savel je ponovno poslal poslance, da vidijo Davida, rekoč: »Privedite ga gor k meni v postelji, da ga bom lahko ubil.«
And Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may put him to death.
16 Ko so poslanci vstopili, glej, je bil v postelji kip, z blazino iz kozje dlake za njegov vzglavnik.
And when the messengers were come in, behold, there was an image in the bed, with a pillow of goats' hair for its head to rest on.
17 Savel je rekel Miháli: »Zakaj si me tako zavedla in mojega sovražnika poslala proč, da je pobegnil?« Mihála je Savlu odgovorila: »Rekel mi je: ›Pusti me oditi; čemu bi te ubil?‹«
And Saul said unto Michal, Why hast thou thus deceived me, and sent away my enemy, that he is escaped? And Michal said to Saul, He said unto me, Let me go away: why should I kill thee?
18 Tako je David bežal, pobegnil in prišel k Samuelu v Ramo ter mu povedal vse, kar mu je Savel storil. In on in Samuel sta odšla ter prebivala v Najótu.
So David fled, and escaped, and came unto Samuel to Ramah, and he told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and remained in Nayoth.
19 To je bilo povedano Savlu, rekoč, poglej: »David je pri Najótu v Rami.«
And it was told unto Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Nayoth near Ramah.
20 Savel je poslal poslance, da primejo Davida. Ko pa so ti zagledali skupino prerokov, ki je prerokovala in Samuela stati kot določenega nad njimi, je bil Božji Duh nad Savlovimi poslanci in tudi oni so prerokovali.
And Saul sent messengers to take David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as superintendent over them: then came upon the messengers of Saul the spirit of God, and they also prophesied.
21 Ko je bilo to povedano Savlu, je poslal druge poslance in tudi ti so prerokovali. In Savel je ponovno, tretjič, poslal poslance in tudi ti so prerokovali.
And when it was told to Saul, he sent other messengers, and these prophesied likewise. And Saul sent again messengers the third time, and these also prophesied.
22 Potem je tudi sam odšel v Ramo in prišel k velikemu vodnjaku, ki je v Sehuju. Vprašal je in rekel: »Kje sta Samuel in David?« Nekdo je rekel: »Glej, onadva sta pri Najótu v Rami.«
Then went he himself also to Ramah, and came as far as the great well that is in Sechu: and he asked and said, Where are Samuel and David? And some one said, Behold, they are at Nayoth near Ramah.
23 In odšel je tja k Najótu v Ramo in Božji Duh je bil tudi nad njim in šel je naprej in prerokoval, dokler ni prišel k Najótu v Ramo.
And he went thither to Nayoth near Ramah: and there came upon him also the Spirit of God, and he went on, and prophesied as he went, until he came to Nayoth near Ramah.
24 Tudi on je slekel svoja oblačila in na podoben način prerokoval pred Samuelom in ves ta dan in vso noč ležal gol. Zato pravijo: » Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«
And he also stripped off his clothes, and he also prophesied himself before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore people are in the habit of saying, Is Saul too among the prophets?
