2 Samuel 21
1 V Davidovih dneh je bila takrat tam tri leta lakota, leto za letom. David je poizvedel od Gospoda. In Gospod je odgovoril: » To je zaradi Savla in zaradi njegove krvoločne hiše, ker je pobil Gibeónce.«
There was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David sought the face of the LORD. The LORD said, “It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”
2 Kralj je poklical Gibeónce in jim rekel; (torej Gibeónci niso bili izmed Izraelovih otrok, temveč od ostanka Amoréjcev in Izraelovi otroci so jim prisegli. Savel pa si je prizadeval, da jih v svoji gorečnosti do Izraelovih otrok in Juda, pokonča.)
The king called the Gibeonites and said to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the children of Israel had sworn to them; and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah);
3 Zato je David rekel Gibeóncem: »Kaj naj storim za vas? S čim naj storim spravo, da boste lahko blagoslovili Gospodovo dediščino?«
and David said to the Gibeonites, “What should I do for you? And with what should I make atonement, that you may bless the LORD’s inheritance?”
4 Gibeónci so mu rekli: »Nočemo imeti niti Savlovega srebra, niti zlata, niti njegovih hiš, niti ne boš za nas nikogar ubil v Izraelu.« Rekel je: »Kar boste rekli, to bom storil za vas.«
The Gibeonites said to him, “It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” He said, “I will do for you whatever you say.”
5 Kralju so odgovorili: »Od človeka, ki nas je použil in ki je snoval zoper nas, da bi bili mi uničeni od preostanka v vseh Izraelovih pokrajinah,
They said to the king, “The man who consumed us and who plotted against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 naj nam bo izročenih sedem mož izmed njegovih sinov in obesili jih bomo Gospodu v Savlovi Gíbei, ki ga je Gospod izbral.« Kralj je rekel: »Dal jih bom.«
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD.” The king said, “I will give them.”
7 Toda kralj je prizanesel Mefibóšetu, sinu Savlovega sina Jonatana, zaradi Gospodove prisege, ki je bila med njima, med Davidom in Savlovim sinom Jonatanom.
But the king spared Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the LORD’s oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 Temveč je kralj vzel dva sinova Ajájeve hčere Ricpe, ki jih je rodila Savlu, Armoníja in Mefibóšeta in pet sinov Savlove hčere Mihále, ki jih je vzgojila za Adriéla, sina Mehólčana Barzilája
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 in izročil jih je v roke Gibeóncem in obesili so jih na hribu pred Gospodom. Vseh sedem je skupaj padlo in bili so usmrčeni v dneh žetve, v prvih dneh, v začetku ječmenove žetve.
He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites; and they hanged them on the mountain before the LORD, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 Ajájeva hči Ricpa pa je vzela vrečevino in jo razgrinjala na skali od začetka žetve, dokler nanje ni kapljala voda z neba in ni pustila niti pticam neba, da na njih počivajo podnevi niti živalim polja ponoči.
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 To je bilo povedano Davidu, kaj je storila Savlova priležnica, Ajájeva hči Ricpa.
David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12 David je odšel in vzel Savlove kosti in kosti njegovega sina Jonatana od ljudi iz Jabéš Gileáda, ki so jih ukradli iz ulice Bet Šeána, kjer so jih Filistejci obesili, ko so Filistejci umorili Savla na Gilbói.
So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 Od tam je prinesel gor kosti Savla in kosti njegovega sina Jonatana in zbrali so [tudi] kosti tistih, ki so bili obešeni.
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son. They also gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 Kosti Savla in njegovega sina Jonatana so pokopali v Celi, v Benjaminovi deželi, v mavzoleju njegovega očeta Kiša in izpolnili so vse, kar je kralj zapovedal. Potem se je dal Bog izprositi za deželo.
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father; and they performed all that the king commanded. After that, God answered prayer for the land.
15 Poleg tega so Filistejci ponovno imeli vojno z Izraelom in David je šel dol in njegovi služabniki z njim in borili so se zoper Filistejce, David pa je postal slaboten.
The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
16 Jišbí Benób, ki je bil izmed sinov velikana, čigar sulica je tehtala tristo šeklov brona v teži, je bil opasan z novim mečem, misleč, da bo umoril Davida.
and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, he being armed with a new sword, thought he would kill David.
17 Toda Cerújin sin Abišáj mu je pomagal, udaril Filistejca in ga ubil. Potem so mu Davidovi možje prisegli, rekoč: »Ne boš več šel z nami v bitko, da ne pogasiš Izraelove svetlobe.«
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “Don’t go out with us to battle any more, so that you don’t quench the lamp of Israel.”
18 Pripetilo se je po tem, da je bila ponovno bitka s Filistejci pri Gobu. Takrat je Hušán Sibeháj ubil Safa, ki je bil izmed sinov velikana.
After this, there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 In tam je bila ponovno bitka s Filistejci v Gobu, kjer je Elhanán, sin Betlehemca Jaaré Orgíma, usmrtil brata Gitéjca Goljata, katerega palica njegove sulice je bila podobna tkalčevemu brunu.
There was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite’s brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 In tam je bila spet bitka v Gatu, kjer je bil mož visoke postave, ki je imel na vsaki roki šest prstov in na vsakem stopalu šest prstov, štiriindvajset po številu, in tudi on je bil rojen velikanu.
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on every hand and six toes on every foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was born to the giant.
21 Ko je izzival Izraela, ga je Jonatan, sin Davidovega brata Šimája, usmrtil.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, killed him.
22 Ti štirje so bili rojeni velikanu v Gatu in padli so po Davidovi roki in po roki njegovih služabnikov.
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
