2 Samuel 4

1 Ko je Savlov sin slišal, da je bil Abnêr mrtev v Hebrónu, so bile njegove roke slabotne in vsi Izraelci so bili zaskrbljeni.

And Jebosthe the son of Saul heard that Abenner the son of Ner had died in Chebron; and his hands were paralyzed, and all the men of Israel grew faint.

2 Savlov sin je imel dva moža, ki sta bila poveljnika čet. Ime enega je bilo Baaná in ime drugega Reháb, sinova Rimóna, Beeróčana, izmed Benjaminovih otrok (kajti tudi Beerót je bil štet k Benjaminu

And Jebosthe the son of Saul had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one [was] Baana, and the name of the other Rechab, sons of Remmon the Berothite of the children of Benjamin; for Beroth was reckoned to the children of Benjamin.

3 in Beeróčani so pobegnili v Gitájim in bili tam začasni prebivalci do tega dne.)

And the Berothites ran away to Gethaim, and were sojourners there until this day.

4 Savlov sin Jonatan je imel sina, ki je bil hrom od svojih stopal. Pet let je bil star, ko so prišle iz Jezreéla novice o Savlu in Jonatanu in njegova dojilja ga je vzela in pobegnila. Pripetilo pa se je, medtem ko je hitela, da pobegne, da je padel in postal hrom. Njegovo ime je bilo Mefibóšet.

And Jonathan Saul's son [had] a son lame of his feet, five years old, and he was [in the way] when the news of Saul and Jonathan his son came from Jezrael, and his nurse took him up, and fled; and it came to pass as he hasted and retreated, that he fell, and was lamed. And his name [was] Memphibosthe.

5 Sinova Beeróčana Rimóna, Reháb in Baaná sta odšla in prišla okoli dnevne vročine v hišo Iš Bošeta, ki je opoldan ležal na postelji.

And Rechab and Baana the sons of Remmon the Berothite went, and they came in the heat of the day into the house of Jebosthe; and he was sleeping on a bed at noon.

6 Prišla sta tja, v sredo hiše, kakor bi hotela vzeti pšenico. Udarila sta ga pod peto rebro in Reháb in njegov brat Baaná sta pobegnila.

And, behold, the porter of the house winnowed wheat, and he slumbered and slept: and the brothers Rechab and Baana went privily into the house:

7 Kajti ko sta prišla v hišo, je ležal na svoji postelji, v svoji spalnici in udarila sta ga in ga usmrtila in obglavila in vzela njegovo glavo in vso noč bežala čez ravnino.

And Jebosthe was sleeping on his bed in his chamber: and they strike him, and kill him, and take off his head: and they took his head, and went all the night by the western road.

8 Glavo Iš Bošeta sta prinesla k Davidu v Hebrón in rekla kralju: »Glej, glava Savlovega sina Iš Bošeta, tvojega sovražnika, ki je iskal tvoje življenje in Gospod je ta dan maščeval mojega gospoda kralja nad Savlom in njegovim semenom.«

And they brought the head of Jebosthe to David to Chebron, and they said to the king, Behold the head of Jebosthe the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the Lord has executed for my lord the king vengeance on his enemies, as [it is] this day: even on Saul your enemy, and on his seed.

9 David pa je odgovoril Rehábu in njegovemu bratu Baanáju, sinovoma Beeróčana Rimóna ter jima rekel: » Kakor živi Gospod, ki je mojo dušo odkupil od vseh nasprotnikov,

And David answered and Rechab and Baana his brother, the sons of Remmon the Berothite, and said to them, [As] the Lord lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all affliction;

10 ko mi je nekdo povedal, rekoč: ›Glej, Savel je mrtev, ‹ misleč, da je prinesel dobre novice, sem ga prijel in ga usmrtil v Ciklágu. Mislil je, da mu bom dal nagrado za njegove novice.

he that reported to me that Saul was dead, even he was as one bringing glad tidings before me: but I seized him and killed him in Sekelac, to whom I ought, [as he thought], to have given a reward for his tidings.

11 Koliko mnogo bolj, ko sta zlobneža umorila pravično osebo v njegovi lastni hiši, na njegovi postelji? Mar ne bom torej sedaj zahteval njegovo kri iz vajine roke in vaju vzel proč z zemlje?«

And now evil men have slain a righteous men in his house on his bed: now then I will require his blood of your hand, and I will destroy you from off the earth.

12 David je svojim mladeničem zapovedal in so ju ubili ter odsekali njuni roki in njuna stopala in ju obesili gor nad ribnik v Hebrónu. Toda vzeli so glavo Iš Bošeta in jo pokopali v Abnêrjevem mavzoleju v Hebrónu.

And David commanded his young men, and they kill them, and cut off their hands and their feet; and they hung them up at the fountain in Chebron: and they buried the head of Jebosthe in the tomb of Abenezer the son of Ner.
