2 Samuel 2
1 Pripetilo se je po tem, da je David poizvedel od Gospoda, rekoč: »Ali naj grem gor v katerokoli izmed Judovih mest?« Gospod mu je rekel: »Pojdi gor.« David mu je rekel: »Kam naj grem gor?« Rekel je: »V Hebrón.«
And it comes to pass afterward, that David inquires of YHWH, saying, “Do I go up into one of the cities of Judah?” And YHWH says to him, “Go up.” And David says, “To where do I go up?” And He says, “To Hebron.”
2 Tako je David odšel tja gor in tudi dve njegovi ženi: Jezreélka Ahinóam in Abigájila, žena Karmélčana Nabála.
And David goes up there, and also his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;
3 Njegove može, ki so bili z njim, je David privedel gor, vsakega moža s svojo družino in prebivali so v mestih Hebróna.
and David has brought up his men who [are] with him—a man and his household—and they dwell in the cities of Hebron.
4 Možje iz Juda so prišli in tam mazilili Davida [za] kralja nad Judovo hišo. In povedali so Davidu, rekoč: » Da so bili možje iz Jabéš Gileáda tisti, ki so pokopali Savla.«
And the men of Judah come, and anoint David there for king over the house of Judah; and they declare to David, saying, “The men of Jabesh-Gilead [are] they who buried Saul.”
5 David je poslal poslance k ljudem iz Jabéš Gileáda ter jim rekel: »Blagoslovljeni bodite od Gospoda, da ste izkazali to prijaznost našemu gospodu Savlu in ga pokopali.
And David sends messengers to the men of Jabesh-Gilead and says to them, “Blessed [are] you of YHWH, in that you have done this kindness with your lord, with Saul, that you bury him.
6 Sedaj naj vam Gospod izkaže prijaznost in resnico in tudi jaz vam bom poplačal to prijaznost, ker ste storili to stvar.
And now YHWH does kindness and truth with you, and I also do this good with you because you have done this thing;
7 Zato naj bodo sedaj vaše roke okrepljene in bodite hrabri, kajti vaš gospodar Savel je mrtev in tudi Judova hiša me je mazilila [za] kralja nad seboj.«
and now your hands are strong, and be for sons of valor, for your lord Saul [is] dead, and the house of Judah has also anointed me for king over them.”
8 Toda Nerov sin Abnêr, poveljnik Savlove vojske, je vzel Savlovega sina Iš Bošeta, in ga privedel preko, v Mahanájim
And Abner, son of Ner, head of the host which Saul has, has taken Ish-Bosheth, son of Saul, and causes him to pass over to Mahanaim,
9 in ga postavil [za] kralja nad Gileádom, nad Ašhúrci, nad Jezreélom, nad Efrájimom, nad Benjaminom in nad vsem Izraelom.
and causes him to reign over Gilead, and over the Ashurite, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over Israel—all of it.
10 Savlov sin Iš Bošet je bil star štirideset let, ko je začel kraljevati nad Izraelom in kraljeval je dve leti. Toda Judova hiša je sledila Davidu.
Ish-Bosheth son of Saul [is] a son of forty years in his reigning over Israel, and he has reigned [for] two years; only the house of Judah has been after David.
11 In časa, ko je bil David kralj v Hebrónu, nad Judovo hišo, je bilo sedem let in šest mesecev.
And the number of the days that David has been king in Hebron, over the house of Judah, is seven years and six months.
12 In Nerov sin Abnêr in služabniki Savlovega sina Iš Bošeta so iz Mahanájima odšli v Gibeón.
And Abner son of Ner goes out, and servants of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
13 In Cerújin sin Joáb in Davidovi služabniki so odšli ven in se srečali pri Gibeónskem ribniku in se usedli, eni na eni strani ribnika, drugi pa na drugi strani ribnika.
And Joab son of Zeruiah, and servants of David, have gone out, and they meet by the pool of Gibeon together, and sit down, these by the pool on this [side], and these by the pool on that [side].
14 Abnêr je rekel Joábu: »Naj mladeniči sedaj vstanejo in igrajo pred nami.« Joáb je rekel: »Naj vstanejo.«
And Abner says to Joab, “Now let the youths rise and they play before us”; and Joab says, “Let them rise.”
15 Potem so se tam vzdignili in odšli čez, po številu dvanajst iz Benjamina, ki je pripadal Iš Bošetovemu sinu Savlu in dvanajst izmed Davidovih služabnikov.
And they rise and pass over, in number twelve of Benjamin, even of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
16 Vsak je zgrabil drugega za glavo in svoj meč porinil v njegovo stran. Tako so skupaj padli dol, zato je bil ta kraj imenovan Helkat-hazurim, ki je v Gibeónu.
And they each lay hold on the head of his companion, and his sword [is] in the side of his companion, and they fall together, and [one] calls that place Helkath-Hazzurim, which [is] in Gibeon,
17 Tam je bila ta dan zelo huda bitka in Abnêr je bil poražen in Izraelovi možje, pred Davidovimi služabniki.
and the battle is very hard on that day, and Abner is struck, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.
18 Bili so trije Cerújini sinovi: Joáb, Abišáj in Asaél. Asaél je bil kakor svetloba stopala, kakor divja srna.
And there are three sons of Zeruiah there: Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel; and Asahel [is] light on his feet, as one of the roes which [are] in the field,
19 Asaél je zasledoval Abnêrja in ko je šel, se ni obrnil ne k desni roki niti ne k levi od zasledovanja Abnêrja.
and Asahel pursues after Abner, and has not turned aside to go to the right or to the left, from after Abner.
20 Potem je Abnêr pogledal za seboj in rekel: » Ali si ti Asaél?« Odgovoril je: »Jaz sem.«
And Abner looks behind him and says, “Are you he—Asahel?” And he says, “I [am].”
21 Abnêr mu je rekel: »Obrni se vstran k svoji desni roki ali k svoji levi in primi enega izmed mladeničev in si vzemi njegovo bojno opremo.« Toda Asaél se ni hotel obrniti od sledenja za njim.
And Abner says to him, “Turn aside to your right hand or to your left, and seize one of the youths for yourself, and take his armor for yourself”; and Asahel has not been willing to turn aside from after him.
22 Abnêr je ponovno rekel Asaélu: »Obrni se stran od sledenja za menoj. Zakaj bi te udaril k tlom? Kako bi potem svoj obraz dvignil k tvojemu bratu Joábu?«
And Abner adds again, saying to Asahel, “Turn aside from after me, why do I strike you to the earth? And how do I lift up my face to your brother Joab?”
23 Vendar je ta odklonil, da se obrne vstran. Zato ga je Abnêr z zadnjim delom sulice udaril pod petim rebrom, da je sulica pogledala ven za njim; in tam je padel dol in umrl na istem kraju. Pripetilo se je, da kolikor jih je prišlo na kraj, kjer je Asaél padel dol in umrl, da so mirno stali.
And he refuses to turn aside, and Abner strikes him with the back part of the spear to the fifth [rib], and the spear comes out from behind him, and he falls there, and dies under it; and it comes to pass, everyone who has come to the place where Asahel has fallen and dies—they stand still.
24 Tudi Joáb in Abišáj sta zasledovala Abnêrja. Sonce je zašlo, ko sta prišla k hribu Ame, ki leži pred Giahom, ob poti Gibeónske divjine.
And Joab and Abishai pursue after Abner, and the sun has gone in, and they have come to the height of Ammah, which [is] on the front of Giah, the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
25 Benjaminovi otroci so se zbrali skupaj za Abnêrjem in postali eno krdelo in stali na vrhu hriba.
And the sons of Benjamin gather themselves together after Abner, and become one troop, and stand on the top of a certain height,
26 Potem je Abnêr zaklical Joábu in rekel: »Mar bo meč požiral na veke? Ali ne veš, da bo v zadnjem koncu to grenkoba? Doklej bo torej, preden boš svojemu ljudstvu naročil, naj se vrne od zasledovanja svojih bratov?«
and Abner calls to Joab and says, “Does the sword consume forever? Have you not known that it is bitterness in the latter end? And until when do you not say to the people to turn back from after their brothers?”
27 Joáb je rekel: » Kakor živi Bog, če ne bi spregovoril, bi potem zjutraj ljudstvo zagotovo odšlo gor, vsakdo od sledenja svojemu bratu.«
And Joab says, “God lives! For unless you had spoken, surely then from the morning each of the people had gone up from after his brother.”
28 Tako je Joáb zatrobil na šofar in vse ljudstvo je mirno stalo in ni več zasledovalo Izraela niti se niso več bojevali.
And Joab blows with a horn, and all the people stand still, and no longer pursue after Israel, nor have they added to fight anymore.
29 Abnêr in njegovi možje so vso to noč hodili skozi ravnino in prečkali Jordan in šli skozi ves Bitrón in prišli do Mahanájima.
And Abner and his men have gone through the plain all that night, and pass over the Jordan, and go on [through] all Bithron, and come to Mahanaim.
30 Joáb se je vrnil od zasledovanja Abnêrja in ko je vse ljudstvo zbral skupaj, je od Davidovih služabnikov manjkalo devetnajst mož in Asaél.
And Joab has turned back from after Abner, and gathers all the people, and there are lacking of the servants of David nineteen men, and Asahel;
31 Toda Davidovi služabniki so udarili Benjaminove in Abnêrjeve može, tako da je umrlo tristo šestdeset mož.
and the servants of David have struck of Benjamin, even among the men of Abner, three hundred and sixty men—they died.
32 Pobrali so Asaéla in ga pokopali v mavzoleju njegovega očeta, ki je bil v Betlehemu. Joáb in njegovi možje pa so vso noč hodili ter ob svitu prišli v Hebrón.
And they lift up Asahel, and bury him in the burying-place of his father, which [is] in Beth-Lehem, and they go all the night—Joab and his men—and [dawn’s light] shines on them in Hebron.
