2 Samuel 13

1 Pripetilo se je po tem, da je Davidov sin Absalom imel lepo sestro, ki ji je bilo ime Tamara in Davidov sin Amnón, jo je vzljubil.

And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

2 Amnón je bil tako obupan, da je zaradi svoje sestre Tamare zbolel, kajti bila je devica in Amnón si je mislil, da je zanj težko, da ji stori kakršno koli stvar.

And Amnon was so vexed that he fell sick because of his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and it seemed hard to Amnon to do any thing unto her.

3 Toda Amnón je imel prijatelja, katerega ime je bilo Jonadáb, sin Šimája, Davidovega brata. Jonadáb pa je bil zelo premeten človek.

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.

4 Ta mu je rekel: »Zakaj si ti, ki si kraljev sin, iz dneva v dan slabotnejši? Ali mi ne boš povedal?« Amnón mu je rekel: »Ljubim Tamaro, sestro svojega brata Absaloma.«

And he said unto him, Why, O son of the king, art thou thus lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom’s sister.

5 Jonadáb mu je rekel: »Ulezi se na svojo posteljo in se naredi bolnega in ko pride tvoj oče, da te pogleda, mu reci: ›Prosim te, naj pride moja sestra Tamara in mi da jesti in pripravi hrano v mojem pogledu, da bom to lahko videl in to pojedel pri njeni roki.‹«

And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and feign thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and give me bread to eat, and dress the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.

6 Tako se je Amnón ulegel in se naredil bolnega in ko je kralj prišel, da ga pogleda, je Amnón rekel kralju: »Prosim te, naj pride moja sestra Tamara in mi pripravi nekaj kolačev v mojem pogledu, da bom lahko jedel pri njeni roki.«

So Amnon lay down, and feigned himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, Let my sister Tamar come, I pray thee, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.

7 Potem je David poslal domov k Tamari, rekoč: »Pojdi sedaj k hiši svojega brata Amnóna in mu pripravi hrano.«

Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon’s house, and dress him food.

8 Tako je Tamara odšla k hiši svojega brata Amnóna in ta je ležal. Vzela je moko in jo zgnetla in naredila kolače v njegovem pogledu in kolače spekla.

So Tamar went to her brother Amnon’s house; and he was laid down. And she took dough, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.

9 Vzela je ponev in jih iztresla pred njim, toda odklonil je jesti. Amnón je rekel: »Odstranite od mene vse može.« In vsi možje so odšli od njega.

And she took the pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.

10 Amnón je rekel Tamari: »Prinesi hrano v sobo, da bom lahko jedel iz tvoje roke.« Tamara je vzela kolače, ki jih je naredila in jih prinesla v sobo k svojemu bratu Amnónu.

And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the food into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.

11 Ko jih je prinesla k njemu, da jé, jo je prijel in ji rekel: »Pridi, lezi z menoj, moja sestra.«

And when she had brought them near unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.

12 Odgovorila mu je: »Ne, moj brat, ne sili me, kajti nobena takšna stvar se ne bi smela storiti v Izraelu. Ne stôri te neumnosti.

And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.

13 In jaz, kam naj grem s svojo sramoto? Kar pa se tebe tiče, boš kakor nekdo izmed bedakov v Izraelu. Sedaj torej, prosim te, spregovori kralju, kajti on me ne bo zadržal pred teboj.«

And I, whither shall I carry my shame? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.

14 Vendar ni hotel prisluhniti njenemu glasu, temveč ker je bil močnejši kakor ona, jo je prisilil in ležal z njo.

Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but being stronger than she, he forced her, and lay with her.

15 Potem jo je Amnón skrajno zasovražil, tako da je bilo sovraštvo, s katerim jo je zasovražil, večje kakor ljubezen, s katero jo je ljubil. In Amnón ji je rekel: »Vstani, izgini.«

Then Amnon hated her with exceeding great hatred; for the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.

16 Rekla mu je: »Ni razloga. To zlo, da me pošiljaš proč, je večje kakor drugo, ki si mi ga storil.« Toda ni ji hotel prisluhniti.

And she said unto him, Not so, because this great wrong in putting me forth is [worse] than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her.

17 Potem je poklical svojega služabnika, ki mu je služil in rekel: »Postavi sedaj to žensko stran od mene in zapahni vrata za njo.«

Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.

18 Na sebi je imela obleko iz številnih barv, kajti s takšnim svečanim oblačilom so bile oblečene kraljeve hčere, ki so bile device. Potem jo je njegov služabnik odvedel ven in za njo zapahnil vrata.

And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king’s daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

19 Tamara pa si je na svojo glavo dala pepel in pretrgala obleko iz številnih barv, ki je bila na njej in svojo roko položila na svojo glavo ter jokajoč odšla.

And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her; and she laid her hand on her head, and went her way, crying aloud as she went.

20 Njen brat Absalom ji je rekel: »Ali je bil tvoj brat Amnón s teboj? Toda sedaj molči, moja sestra. On je tvoj brat. Ne oziraj se na to stvar.« Tako je Tamara ostala zapuščena v hiši svojega brata Absaloma.

And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but now hold thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom’s house.

21 Toda ko je kralj David slišal o vseh teh stvareh, je bil zelo ogorčen.

But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.

22 Absalom ni spregovoril svojemu bratu Amnónu niti dobro niti slabo, kajti Absalom je sovražil Amnóna, ker je posilil njegovo sestro Tamaro.

And Absalom spake unto Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

23 Pripetilo se je po dveh polnih letih, da je imel Absalom strižce ovc v Báal Hacórju, ki je poleg Efrájima in Absalom je povabil vse kraljeve sinove.

And it came to pass after two years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal-hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.

24 Absalom je prišel h kralju ter rekel: »Glej torej, tvoj služabnik ima strižce ovc, naj kralj, rotim te in njegovi služabniki gredo s tvojim služabnikom.«

And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.

25 Kralj je rekel Absalomu: »Ne, moj sin, naj ne gremo sedaj vsi, da ti ne bi bili v breme.« Silil ga je, vendar ni želel iti, temveč ga je blagoslovil.

And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.

26 Potem je Absalom rekel: »Če ne, prosim te, naj gre z nami moj brat Amnón.« Kralj mu je rekel: »Čemu bi on šel s teboj?«

Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

27 Toda Absalom ga je silil, da je pustil Amnóna in vse kraljeve sinove iti z njim.

But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.

28 Torej Absalom je svojim služabnikom ukazal, rekoč: »Zapomnite si torej kdaj bo Amnónovo srce veselo z vinom in ko vam rečem: ›Udarite Amnóna; ‹ tedaj ga ubijte, ne bojte se; ali vam nisem jaz ukazal? Bodite pogumni in bodite hrabri.«

And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now, when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you, smite Amnon, then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.

29 Absalomovi služabniki so storili Amnónu, kakor je Absalom zapovedal. Potem so vsi kraljevi sinovi vstali in vsak mož se je povzpel na svojo mulo ter pobegnil.

And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.

30 Pripetilo se je, ko so bili na poti, da so prišle k Davidu novice, rekoč: »Absalom je umoril vse kraljeve sinove in niti eden izmed njih ni preostal.«

And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that the tidings came to David saying, Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left.

31 Potem je kralj vstal in raztrgal svoje obleke in legel na zemljo in vsi njegovi služabniki so stali poleg s svojimi pretrganimi oblačili.

Then the king arose, and rent his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.

32 Jonadáb, sin Davidovega brata Šimája, je odgovoril ter rekel: »Naj moj gospod ne domneva, da so umorili vse mladeniče, kraljeve sinove, kajti samo Amnón je mrtev, kajti z Absalomovo določitvijo je bilo to določeno od dneva, ko je posilil njegovo sestro Tamaro.

And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

33 Zdaj torej naj si moj gospod kralj te stvari ne vzame k srcu, da misli, da so vsi kraljevi sinovi mrtvi, kajti samo Amnón je mrtev.«

Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.

34 Toda Absalom je pobegnil. In mladenič, ki je bil na straži, je povzdignil svoje oči in pogledal in glej, precej ljudi je prihajajo po poti od pobočja hriba za njim.

But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.

35 Jonadáb je rekel kralju: »Glej, kraljevi sinovi prihajajo. Kakor je tvoj služabnik rekel, tako je.«

And Jonadab said unto the king, Behold, the king’s sons are come: as thy servant said, so it is.

36 Pripetilo se je, takoj ko je končal govorjenje, glej, da so prišli kraljevi sinovi in povzdignili svoj glas ter zajokali in tudi kralj in vsi njegovi služabniki so zelo bridko jokali.

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king’s sons came, and lifted up their voice, and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.

37 Toda Absalom je pobegnil in odšel k Talmáju, Amihúdovemu sinu, kralju v Gešurju. David pa je vsak dan žaloval za svojim sinom.

But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai the son of Ammihur, king of Geshur. And [David] mourned for his son every day.

38 Tako je Absalom pobegnil in odšel v Gešur in tam je bil tri leta.

So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

39 Duša kralja Davida pa je hrepenela, da gre k Absalomu, kajti potolažen je bil glede Amnóna, glede na to, da je bil on mrtev.

And [the soul of] king David longed to go forth unto Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.
